Hello, Iron Edge!
I am applying to be a social member.
Character: Aeralyn
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/Kazzak/Aeralyn/advancedClass/Spec: Priest (DPS)
Member Type: social
Personal Info:Hello,
My name is Mike Elings, a 20 year old student, born and raised in the Netherlands. I have been in college for 3 years now and I am studying for the profession of salesperson/marketeer. My hobbies are gaming and taking long walks with my Australian Shepherd puppy Storm. I have loved video games as long as I can remember, it all started when I got my first console when I was about 6 years old, before that I occasionally played games like tomb raider on a very old pc. I just recently got into pc gaming after building my first gaming pc with the help of a friend.
Class/Spec:I currently main Shadow Priest. When I started playing World of Warcraft I honestly had no clue which class I wanted to use. I decided to go with the kind of character I was familiar with from other mmos, a ranged dps. As a former hearthstone player I did know some of the heroes and lore behind some of the classes. I decided to go for the priest, but as I still wanted to be a dps class I decided to pick the shadow priest.
Alts:As someone who just recently started playing world of warcraft I do not have any alternate characters yet.
Professions:As my first profession I picked herbalism (I dont't even remember why). As second profession I picked enchanting so that I could enchant my own gear later on in the game. I haven't really had the time to level these professions though so I don't really have any special recipes yet.
Raiding/PVP Experience:My current raiding experience is very limited. I have completed the nighthold the past 2 weeks on LFR difficulty and on normal difficulty with the help of the iron edge guild.
Previous Guilds:As I am new to World Of Warcraft and was getting spammed with invites to random guilds I had decided not to join any guilds I didn't apply to myself. Therefor I have not been a member of any guild in the past.
Availability:Currently my times of availability can differ from one month to the other as it all depends on the new rosters I get from college. My current roster allows me to play a few hours every day of the week. I have one exam upcoming tuesday. If I pass that exam then I will not have any remaining exams this year so exams will not be a problem for my availability till September next year, when my minor for college will start.
Communication:I am not the kind of person who likes to brag about his proficiency in English. It is probably the best if the person who reviews my application decides if my knowledge of the English language is good enough or not. I currently have discord on my phone, I do not have teamspeak yet though. Some members of iron edge told me that my current microphone is a little sensitive though, that's why I currently use the push to talk option.
Computer / Connection:I use an ethernet cable for gaming on my pc which enables me to average about 100mb/s so I normally have no issues with ping or connections. In the few weeks that I have played on Kazzak I have not disconnected yet nor have I suffered from bad lag. My pc specs are as following:
GTX1080 A8G Strix GPU
i7 7700K CPU
Maximus IX hero motherboard
G.Skill Trident Z RGB 4x8GB 3000mHz
500 gb samsung 960evo m.2 SSD
Addons/UI:The Addons that I currently use are:
Big Boss Monsters as it helps me understand boss mechanics that are new to me
WeakAuras V2 to improve the tracking of my cooldowns
Bartender 4 as this was a tip from a friend
ShadowUnitFrames to better understand the stack mechanic during voidform
!!!Screenshot of UI will be uploaded soon!!!
Other Games:There are several other games that I currently play, these are mainly first person shooters under which:
Counter-Strike Global Offense
Rainbow Six Siege
Overwatch
Hearthstone
