Have you read and understand the following posts? Yes.
- Read This Before Applying
- General Guild Information and Policies
- About Us


What is your raid experience? All Cata raid content, minus some hard modes.


Why did you leave your previous (current) guild? I technically didn't leave yet, but they are focused on 25m. I much rather do 10 mans.


Does anyone in our guild know you? Possibly, I've pugged a lot during wotlk.


How did you find out about our guild? wowprogress.com


How many alts do you have and is this your main? "Alt" seems like a negative word, but I guess this is my alt because I currently spend more time on my lock. My druid used to be my main during wotlk. I only have 2 lvl 85s: my druid and lock.


What are your play times? Various times throughout the week, but I am only available to raid: mon, wed, sun.


Which of our raid times would you be able to make? Sun/Mon


Would you be willing to sit out if it is necessary without a fuss? Yes.


Have you spent proper time and money into your gear / enchants / gems? Yes.


Raiders are expected to use consumables during raids. In the following categories what consumable would you use and why?
- Flask/Elixirs: Draconic Mind/ Flowing Water
- Well Fed: Seafood Magnifique if provided, Severed Sagefish
- Potion: Volcanic potion/ mana pot


If you are DPS, what is the (spell) hit your character needs to be viable in a raid? 17% caster.


What is the basic gemming strategy for your character? Stack int, unless there is at least a +20 int socket bonus for the gear.


What is the basic reforging strategy for your character? Hearing mixed things about haste vs mastery. I'm currently Haste till 915 -> spirit -> mastery.


What is your favorite boss fight and why? What boss haven't you fought that you're looking forward to the most? Ulduar bosses were fun. Maybe mimiron or yogg. I'm looking forward to Firelands because I feel that that the current raid content are sort of boring.


What boss mod(s) do you use? dbm


What website(s) do you use to read up on encounters proactively? tankspot.com

Anything else we missed or you want to tell us? My warlock's name is Bapho in case I'm not on Satsui. Thanks for your time.

Some applied that ALREADY meets the raider requirements! This is very exciting. Here's the current situation, our Sun/Mon group would love to have a resto druid BUT we're kind of full at the moment. Usually we have to rotate people between different bosses, but last night we had some trouble keeping 10 players. So I gotta be honest with you, I'm not sure how it would shake out. If you want to join and see you're more than welcome to, just let us know.

Your bear tank settup is acceptable, although from what I have seen, gemming straight agi is the way to go over stam by a very small margin(I made the switch last week). That is just kind of nitpicking. It doesn't really matter though, come Tuesday with the mastery change all bets are off.

Overall you look like you know what you are doing which is nice. Also, Forged Alliance has a history with Fates Hand. Several people raided with us
in the past, and have access to these forums, so if Fates Hand didn't know you were thinking of guild switching, they do now, as a heads up. I also have to say that although I have encountered a couple douchebags from Fates Hand, the majority of players in that guild I have had no issues with and it is a plus that you have come from them, and that you are 28 years old. Although many guilds say they have no tolerance for bad behavior, you will find that Forged Alliance truly has none whatsoever, and draven does a good job enforcing it.

I have definitely raided with you in the past as well on a couple PuG occassions. I usually remember the ultra-fails, and I don't really have any negative memories or comments to throw in your direction.

Thanks for the replies.

Also, thanks for the heads up. I am planning on telling the officers, if they don't know already.

I actually made the change to stam recently haha. So the opposite of you, I started with agi. I haven't raided with it though. Just wanted to try it out.

Resto is "technically" my main spec, but I can do both. I've healed all of bot, bwd, to4w minus al akir. Tanking wise, I've tanked up to chogall in bot, and omnitron in bwd, I have knowledge of the other fights though.

I definitely recognize your name. No bad experiences either. =)
