Describe your choice of talents and why you've chosen them:
Level 15: Amplification, bit of a no brainer, its easily the best talent in this row, missiles most of the time will be my top damage or second at the least, more damage on missiles the better.
Level 30: Shimmer, best choice in this row for me most of the time, more mobility than the other two which is a big plus for me, depending on the fight ill sometimes take slipstream
Level 45: Rune of Power, again bit of a no brainer, lines up with cd's and arcane is all about that big dick burst.
Level 60: Resonance, most versatile choice in this row, best for single target and excels at cleave
Level 75: Chrono Shift, the faster i can get to the area i want to be, the more deeps i can do, plus the other two are gash.
Level 90: one of the only true choices you get in arcane, between erosion and unstable magic, erosion pulls ahead on single target, i might take magic depending on the fight
Level 100: Overpowered, cause its overpowered.
How do you prioritize your stats and why? Constant simcrafting tells me my stat weights and what i need to prio, haste is my best stat atm, more haste, more spells, more missiles procs, more time spamming blast/missiles before i need to evo, in a nutshell.
What state is your Artifact in? level 59, will be 60 in a day or two, 940 ilvl, pretty good relics, second best trait on two of them.
Where do you acquire knowledge about your Class? forums, i use alter time a lot, sites, streams, other players.

Raiding History:
Vanilla: nothing special
TBC: everything killed upto Kil'Jaeden
Wrath: everything killed upto hc lich 25
Cata: everything killed upto and including hc rag, then took a break
MOP: came back halfway through siege and got hc garrosh kill before wod launch
WOD: killed everything, including mythic archi
Legion: only played for the first few months due to issues ill explain at the end, but got 1/7M EN, just came back 3/4 weeks ago, currently 5/9hc tos
Describe your previous/current raiding experience: ive raided at a high level for most of my time playing wow, played multiple different classes and specs, very knowledgeable about the game and raiding in general.
Tell us about your previous guilds and your reasons for leaving them:
guns n roses on Azuremyst, left because of some petty guild drama, its actually quite funny, if you guys want to know i can fill you on but its a wall of text, so maybe another time :)
Fury on Shadowsong, i was an officer in this guild but had to take what was originally meant to be a month or two off raiding due to work issues, but during this time a few of my friends left the guild due to their own work commitments and for lack of a better way to put it at the time i was dealing with some shit and coming back to wow to raid without my friends who i had been raiding with for years was not top on my priority list, so 2 months turned into 3, 3 into 4 and so on, i eventually got kicked due to just general inactivity, but there was a few other factors why im not too keen to go back, but ye those where my last two guild of any significance.
More Information:
Can you meet our raid schedule of Wed/Thur/Mon 21:00 to 00:00 server time with at least 90% attendance?
ye no probs.
We are raiding Sundays at start of each Tier for 3-4 weeks. Are you aware of it?
cool with me.
Are you able to Listen and Speak on Teamspeak?
yes.
What qualities do you bring to a Raid?
knowledge, well spoken friendly guy, always happy to help, good laugh and driven, and very reliable, cant remember the last time i missed a raid.
How comfortable are you playing your offspecs?
Very
How do you feel about progression raiding?
Besides having fun, its the main reason i play this game, i strive to get as far progression wise as i can with my guild.
Where did you hear about Curse of Years and do you know anyone in the guild?
wowprogress, nah i don't know anyone in the guild.
What encouraged you to apply to Curse of Years?
had a look at you guy on wowprogress, had a quick scan over the website, seems like i would enjoy it here, raid times are perfect aswell.
Do you play outside of raid?
quite a lot, yes, love my fair share of mythic+ and playing alts, always need some guildies to help out with both :)
Is there anything else you'd like to add to your application?
i would just add, logs wise, theres nothing special on there just a few normal runs my friends got me into in my first couple of weeks, its hard to get hc logs, when every hc run is "link curve" but i cant get curve cause no one will let me in without curve, fucking pugs man, but hey, i guess it shows you a little of what you need to know. :)
Tell us a joke: guy goes into a cake shop and the owner shouts over "ahh welcome to my cake shop, all cakes are £1" guy has a look around and goes "ahh this cake please!", shop owner goes "£2 please" guy replies, "what? thought you said all cake are a pound", shop owner goes, "aye but that's madeira cake"
