Heya!

I think you have the best name I've seen this year.

Your experience is a little weak, but it's a very good application.

I don't know if we're looking for a tank at the moment either, but the DK CL will have to respond first anyway

Hey Ronald,
very nice application,your gear looks decent but only i dont understand why you slack with shoulders enchant when its so easy to farm now 

Anyway you seems like a nice guy,GL with an apply.

[Darkmystica]

Ty haha, well as you can see on armory I am exalted with Sons, On all of my 3 80's even before you could buy rep with badges . Anyway there is a reason i didn't pick them for this item, I always had them before. As you can see I have 558 defense and 27.45% dodge. I certainly don't need to stack more defense and with the dodge debuff in Icecrown I think it's useless aswell. I'm also a stamina stacker and I do think 300 hp is better then 0.51% dodge and 3 defense.

That's the reason I do not use their enchants atm for tanking in the current content .

Edit: About my spec, the reason I have DRW is that it was a miss-click. Didn't use the preview back then. I tried it too see if it was a good TPS bonus but it sucked a bit. It's not a good TPS bonus and a waste of CD. I prefer 3/3 Scent of Blood then.
Going to respec to it soon though

Very good application, problem is with our 3 regular tanks there most likely will not be a spot for you and even if we lacked a tank there is 3 dk's and 2 warriors that have pretty good tank gear, maybe even better than yours. I also dont think our 3 tanks will want to switch around and have us go over tactics/wipes once again for someone new, although we do it anyway

I think i'm right in saying you want a regular tanking spot, I just cant see that happening here.

Best of luck with your application, you seemed like a nice guy when i was talking to you yesterday so i wish you all the best.

[Darkmystica]

Well the differents with me and an off-spec tank is that i have a bit more experience (probably) as a tank. Ofc I wouldn't mind sitting out raids or dps in raids, but like I said I would be bothered if I ALWAYS have to dps (like I do now in my current guild). Maybe the tanks would like to have another tank in their ranks so they can take a break once in a while. But I'm not sure about that ofc haha. Hope you do have a spot for me though,

Kind regards,

Ronald

*edit* Nice pic btw, Naruto > every other anime

Hey, nice application first of all.

We do have 3 tanks atm and the 3 of us are all pretty stable and hardcore, so it's hard to justify having another tank when it's not going to benifit the raid. With half of boss encounters only needing 2 tanks one of us is normaly dps half the time. I'm not sure if a rotation system would be ideal. Being on standby and rotating is one of the worst things to experience as a raider, been there myself for months, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Maybe we can trial you and test things I don't know, I just think you would be a surplus to requirements and as Intrinsic said we have more that capable dpsers that can tank if needed and who I think have better gear and experience.
I'll have a chat with delling and intrinsic.

Best of luck

Impressive app and solid gear /spec, though personally I chose to lose blood worms and take subversion as blood worms are a bit meh IMO.

Its unfortunate you should apply when ,as others have said ,there is a solid + active tanking contingent.

Just out of curiosity , have you ever been grouped with IE in random dungeons? I notice you're from the same battlegroup.

[Darkmystica]

Nope, not that i know of. And it's not like I randomly dropped this apply. I've talked to officers first and they told me to apply. It would be a waste of everyone if i would apply on a full spot. They weren't sure so i applied .

[delling]

I think the main problem is we're now moving into hard-mode ICC -- within a month or so -- and if I need another tank I am more likely to make Kawe or Intrinsic tank, rather than bring in a triallist.

The middle of an instance isn't the best time to bring in triallists, unfortunately.

-D

[Darkmystica]

Wich brings us too? haha well got the same problem everywhere atm i think. I still would like too join but full is full no need to make it more difficult then it is right?

Happy new year people!!!!
