Raider Application - Shaman (DPS) - Sonicquake

[Applicant]

Hello, Iron Edge!

I am applying for the main raid.

Character: Sonicquake
Armory: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/eu/Kazzak/Sonicquake
Class/Spec: Shaman (DPS)
Member Type: Raider

Personal Info:

Hi, my name is Kyle Robertson. I am 21 years old from the United Kingdom, working full-time office based work as a Utility Broker. I am an easy going guy, loves gaming and speaking about everyday life. I am a very good at communicating as I need to do this for my every day job, calling customers from throughout the UK.



Class/Spec:

I play enhancement shaman - I really have always wanted to give the spec a shot as it is one of the only melee I haven't played and thankfully they are in a good place to get to play the spec and do high level content.

I can play elemental, during shadowlands I played it mostly in Mythic Plus but very little raiding experience

For my Enhancement I am 412, with 4 set

Enhancement is a very complicated spec as the rotation changes due to procs - The stats we chase is Mastery/haste, the are generally the best to go for but simming always helps to see if you benefit from something a little more

Elementalist Build ST

With this build it is HOT HAND procs you are after - this is where majority of your damage is coming from.

Normally, I would on pull

Puzzle (trinket)
Windfury totem (1sec left on the pull timer)
(BL if I am the one doing it)
Wolfs
Primordial wave
Lightening bolt (for my haste I get for the talent)
Lava Lash
Ice Strike
Frost Shock
Sundering
Elemental Blast

Etc.

Aoe

Puzzle
Windfury totem
Wolfs
Primordial Wave
Lava lash to spread flame shock
Lightening Bolt (for the haste buff and that it gets aoe effect for primordial wave)
crashing lightening
frost shock sundering
lava lash (try and put it on all target)
chain lightening
frost shock

etc.

Alts:

I have a geared WW monk at 410 ilvl with 4 set

Professions:

blacksmithing as weapons on my specs I play were important early in the expansion

Alchemy as pots, potion are always go to be able to craft

Raiding Experience:

I have CE on SOD in shadowlands, I was playing warrior at the time. It was my first real mythic push with a guild before and we smashed it

Unfortunately after raiding heroic in STFO, my mum had taken ill - so I became focusing on her health rather than the game. But thankfully she beat it and is in the clear

Previous Guilds:

Once Again - Kazzak

I love everyone at OA they are amazing people but once I had to step away from the game, they did what any guild would do and continued. I have tried to get back into the raid team but they are currently full and look to be that way for a while


Availability:

I work 9-5:30 so raid times are good for me

Communication:

English is my main language, I use discord alot as well as my microphone when I am pushing keys

Computer / Connection:

My PC is the best I have had 3070 rtx - i7 processor - I normally sit around 200 fps on wow and my internet is very stable around 500mb  

Addons/UI:

RCLoot council - effect way of dealing with loot as officers can decide who benefits from it the best
Bigwigs - Always good to have some sort of boss mods so you can prepare for what is to come
Weakauras - effective addon to help you improve all parts of the game.

Other Games:

I play all sorts of games, COD to fifa to football manager

Why Iron Edge?

By looking at the website this seems like a very friendly guild, a place to grow as a person nevertheless a player

I want to be apart of a community were people are allowed to be themselves and progress through wow


What can I offer Iron Edge?

Commitment, kindness, and 100% in raids.

I want to get back into all high levels of wow and I want to improve myself every raid

Where did I hear about Iron Edge?

Wowprogress

Last Words?

I hope you guys accept me on the trial bases, I think this is a good fit for both myself and the guild

I really look forward to hearing from you

Thanks

Neat app, you may need to upload your UI onto a public resource like Imgur or something.
I sadly do not have a user called sonic on my pc

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for applying. Decent application overall.
Sorry for the delay in responding to you. We'll hope to come back to you with a decision tomorrow. In the mean time feel free to add that UI screenshot that you missed.
If we accept you as a trial and you integrate well with the team, would you rejoin Once Again's raid team if given the opportunity?
Is it a case of having some new-found life-long friends there or is it just the raiding atmosphere you enjoyed?

I look forward to hearing back from you and once again, we appreciate your patience

Thanks,
Sam
