Who Am I: My name is Zack. Turned 21 in July and still partying; So expensive. I live in southern california and I work as a barback in hollywood

Hardware/Internet: Macbook / Whatever, I get awesome internet

Armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/b ... mpr/simple

What made you decide on your Spec, Gems, and Enchants: I hate healing...I can do it, but I really don't like it. Getting a huge heal doesn't give me as much satisfaction as a huge crit. Gems and enchants are just pretty basic; I know I want haste and hit and gem / chant / reforge accordingly.

Professions: 450 tailoring - 450 enchanting. Being able to enchant my own gear is probably the nicest thing ever. Tailoring is just a way to make money

Guild/Raiding History: All current raids. I've been playing since vanilla so...Ya...It's been a while, haha. I moved to this server to play with my friend. Actually know Vndta irl. Went to sfg cuz that's where my friend was. Didn't know it was the black sheep on the server. Either way, I've been pvping with them for a while and raiding on the side. Time to change that.

My Alts: I have 4 other 85's, none of which get any attention from me

Why I Am Applying to Escaper: When I ran firelands with you guys a few weeks in a row I was impressed; you guys have your shit together and it's hard to find a guild like that. Also, it's a small guild so no one gets lost in the fray. Plus, everyone seemed really cool, that's also hard to find in a good raiding guild.

Why Escaper Should Want Me: I take direction well and adapt easily. Also, nerd raging isn't really my thing. If I'm not picked up for a raid, that's fine with me. I know to wait for my chance.

What I Need To Improve: My dps...I'm fairly certain it's my gear but, I'm hit capped and everything but my dps still isn't where it should be. I've been pouring over EJ and other sites but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. It's not completely shitty dps but I just feel it should be higher and can't find what's wrong

The Hardest Lesson I Learned In WoW: Never thought about that...It's not really that serious for me to have taken away anything from wow aside from don't pay attention to ragers.

My Role in Raiding: Dps, mana, mild healing through dots. Not too great at healing so, I won't even offer that haha

Hello and welcome to the application process.

First off I want to say that while this is a game. and we all understand that, we do take it very serious. I have noticed that you have spent time in the new 5mans trying to get geared up and that is good. I also notice that according to the armory you don't have many gems in. I know right now the prices are inflated, but in order to raid this must be changed.

Your Professions, while it is nice to be able to enchant your own gear, what is the other benefit from that profession. And with tailoring, there is something else that is beneficial other then making gold, and you are currently not using this benefit.

You are also currently just over 1% under hit cap.

Please correct these things as soon as you are able and respond back. Thank you

O wow, complete forgot about embroidery. Haha, thanks. Last night I was up til 5am farming that stupid stalk of corruption. Got a bit tunnel vision-y. I guess when I swapped it in my hit when down cuz I would never run a dungeon with low hit. (Tho I have been a bit of a reforge concubine).

Enchanting gives me +40 int to rings...Other than that, I'm stumped.

And the gems - I was waiting to see if I got in the guild first. 500g for inferno rubies is breaking my balls. But for now I put gems in there. Some of the yellow and purple gems are gonna be replaced by +40 int gems as soon as the price drops.

Thanks for the help

Yup, that would be me. Sorry I knew used to do some pug runs with a guy named Thuper. As for your enchanting it was the benefit of enchants to rings. You would be shocked at how many people don't even think about it.

O ya, thats the first thing I enchant...so easy. But now I'm all geared and, thankfully, my dps has caught up.

Just need Morozund The Witholding to drop my stupid shoulders and I'm good.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Right now we have a fairly stable group. This doesn't mean that you can't raid. If accepted you will be pulled in as a trial and get an opportunity to raid and show us what you got. This may get you a spot in the run or you may be a backup. Is this something that you are ok with? We do have a shadow priests currently that rotates in, but again this does not mean you will not get a chance to show us your ability and raid.

Sorry. Vndta kinda went MIA so wasn't even sure if you were still playing either. I'll talk to the others and let you know asap.
