*************Applying on my priest, spoke to a officer about other options*************

Name, Age, and Location: Blake Campbell // Age: 19 // Location: Florida

Level, Class, and Spec (i.e. 85 Holy Priest 6/33/2): 85 Shadow Priest 10/0/31 (Holy offspec, geared)

Do you have a raid ready offspec that you're practiced with? Yes, Holy or Disc.

Professions: 525 Herbalism 525 Potion Master Alchemist

Other level 85 characters: --- None ---

Previous Guild(s) and reason for leaving: (ALL GUILDS BELOW ARE FROM WRATH OF THE LICH KING.) First guild I left was in WoTLK Lethal Dynasty. The Guild leader had to quit the game due to getting a job and basically left the guild hanging. They tried to keep the guild up but I couldnt happen. Thus when I joined Section Eight. I raided with section eight through Ulduar, succeeded with them through TOGC and got alliance only 25man insanity with them. From there It started to fall apart so me, and a lot of others left the guild to other places. My place was Bravo Company. I really like the people in bravo company. They are a straight forward bunch of people who like getting stuff done. I hate the fact the guild has to be a DKP guild with so many intelligent officers in the guild. It could be a safe, reliable way of doing loot but sometimes, it can be called "unfair". Don't get me wrong, there are no flaws with the dkp system, it just doesnt fit my style of loot distribution.

9. Describe your spell rotation/priority: For shadow priests its not TOO straight forwards, almost like my paladins old FCFS rotation but I usually just do

Shadow Word: Pain

-- Vampiric Touch -- Devouring Plague -- Mind Blast --
Mind Flay until Dark Evangelism.

Spell priority being as followed:

Shadow Word: Pain
Mind Blast (if Orbs 3,2,1)
Devouring Plague
Vampiric Touch
Mind Blast (no Orbs)
Shadow Word: Death
Archangel
Mind Flay
Shadowfiend

Are there any activities or obligations in your life that may interfer with raiding? (i.e. kids, military deployment, illness, etc.) I'm currently attending college but my classes don't interfere with raid times. I also have a job that doesn't interfere with raid times.

Provide a link to your raid parses (i.e. http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-3o702ozvg4jfvhrd/): -

(This log is from when I was still in blues/BoT epics.)

Provide a list of addons you currently use to enhance your abilities: Prat, auctioneer, Reforginator, sexymap, bigwigs, spelltimers

Provide a screenshot of your UI in a raiding environment: Regular blizzard UI, blah blah. No trouble with raid awareness, playing on a 50' tv monitor.

Here are my computer specs just if you're interested in my playing ability:

AMD Phenom(tm) IIX4 910 Processor 3.33GHz
12.00GB Ram
Nvidia Geforce 9600
Nvidia GT 240
Windows 7 64-bit

Figured i'll just post a little essay about myself:

I constantly strive to better in everything that I do, including playing WoW. I have a lot of free time so I constantly read and analyze different strats to each boss. I check what others think of my gameplay, is it good? or is it bad. Subpar...ect. I then realize that I need to do something further and do better. I have always strived myself to become one of the best, if not best dps, but to have extreme raid awareness while I play. I read a lot of forums, explaining what could be better and whats worse. I plug other dps in spreadsheets that I use and see what I am doing wrong if my dps isn't up to par. I am constantly watching videos, even if it isn't something enjoyable, but instead something that will help the guild further by bringing my raid awareness and ability to succeed on bosses.

I think I am bringing myself, a guy with a great attitude along with strong performance, as well as my ability to play my class to the fullest, not just one class but multiple classes. I have played 3 classes through my wow career and succeeded at them all. First was my paladin, When I raided with s8 they raided warlockless for all of ulduar and TOGC. It wasn't working out so I offered to reroll my warlock which then we started the push through TOGC and insanity. I knew nothing of the warlock class when I rerolled instantly like that, but i pushed myself to know more. That night, I spent hours on reading forums, EJ, and other peoples thoughs on what I should do to maximize my dps. I watched videos on warlocks, just to see their rotations on certain bosses and style of play on certain bosses. Then we later recruited a warlock and I was asked to choose my paladin or warlock for ICC. I chose the paladin due to knowing much more on the matter of how a paladin works. I would have raided on my hunter if needed but it wasn't, we had 2-3 hunters including massacre. and I still constantly work on both of my classes to further gain knowledge of how to play multiple classes.

I greatly appreciate you taking the time to look over my application and I will be in touch. Thank you.-Blake.

Hello and welcome to the application process.
You list no 85 alts, but we had spoke about a tank you had. Would you mind putting in a link for that just so we can take a look?

I'm still learning the whole priest thing so I'll leave the theory questions to the more knowledgeable...for now. >:)

Sorry for the delay in responses to your app. Weekends, enough said.

1 of your parses has expired, but the 2nd is still up. I can see that you were doing well. Have you been raiding at all since this group fell apart?

Based on the parse I can see, your numbers on Beth'tilac are a bit concerning. Can you explain to me what it was that you may have missed or any other possible reason for this?

I was in blues and very few epics. I got fully geared on my priest within one week. For being in blues and very few epics I considered it pretty good. And I've been raiding casually on my shaman in sector eight when I'm bored, that's about it. And the weekly BH of course. Hope this helps.
