<Nick, 23, M, Norway
Tell us a little bit about yourself (non-WoW related Interests, Hobbies etc)
I'm a 23 year old student from the very northest parts of Norway, my hobbies are mostly drinking and gaming because for some reason I chose to study in a god forsaken place. On the plus side though in the summer it's only dark out for about 20min so that's always fun.

Describe your choice of talents and why you've chosen them:
For boomkin right now there's 2 viable single-target builds (well 3 but 3rd one is a fucking meme) one being the regular build with incarnation and the other being dad build. Dad build sims slightly lower for me currently (20k difference) however due to the fact that it has high uptime of starfall in ST with the talent Stellar Drift it allows me to cast while moving as well as having passive cleave. For Argus specifically that would be the recommended build if the 1st dps check can be made with it, if the check can't be made then the regular incarnation build is the better build due to a longer cooldown window thus more damage in the opener. The regular build also offers more damage in P4 due to cooldown timings so it's often the choice to go with on prog.
For most mythic bosses ST I actually prefer dad build just because it handles movement way better, except for Vari as it has less add burst and I've only been in groups where it was really needed so far.
How do you prioritize your stats and why?
I constantly sim my stats on raidbots and choose from there. Mastery and haste are generally the best stats for boomie, but due to being low on crit atm mine are mastery>crit>haste>vers>>>>int but they're pretty close.
What state is your Artifact in?
80 AP, 75 for offspecs.
Where do you acquire knowledge about your Class?
I spend a lot of time in the druid discord, I've also read what there is to read at Dreamgrove.gg.

They don't look the best at at the moment I'll admit, but I know I can do better and always strive to improve. Due to some roster issues in my previous guild I also had to heal a fair bit of my kills.
Raiding History:
Describe your previous/current raiding experience:
I raided mythic in early WoD and got to 6/7 HM and got to 8/10 with the furnace and blackhand left standing as my guild broke apart. I also did some raiding in EN where my guild stopped with Cenarius as a roadblock. I've never really taken mythic progression that seriously until Antorus (even though I started late) where I'm doing all I can to clear all and get CE.
Tell us about your previous guilds and your reasons for leaving them:
While I enjoyed my previous guild and it's rate of progress it seems it was not meant to be as it died rather rapidly over easter due to the recruiting officer deciding he was tired of carrying the management of the guild alone since the other 2 officers only raidlogged.
I then got a spot in a guild in a guild on Twisting Nether but it died as I was transferring due to a MT/healer brother combo leaving the guild unannounced.
More Information:
Can you meet our raid schedule of Wed/Thur/Mon 21:00 to 00:00 server time with at least 90% attendance?
Yeah no problem
We are raiding Sundays at start of each Tier for 3-4 weeks. Are you aware of it?
Aware of it
Are you able to Listen and Speak on Teamspeak?
Yeah
What qualities do you bring to a Raid?
Innervate.
Also some dps here and there. If there's any special jobs I need to do I have no issues with that whatsoever.
How comfortable are you playing your offspecs?
Very comfortable healing as I mained healer in EN and BRF and it's a role I've always been fond of. Not at all comfortable with guardian druid, but I have a BDK I'm good at to make up for it.
How do you feel about progression raiding?
I enjoy it a lot and honestly I get bored of wow if I'm not doing prog raiding.
Where did you hear about Curse of Years and do you know anyone in the guild?
Recieved a PM on Wowprogress
What encouraged you to apply to Curse of Years?
I was PMed on wowprogress and since I'm looking for a permanent home for the remainder of Legion and BfA I was hoping this would be it.
Do you play outside of raid?
Yeah quite a bit, I enjoy m+ a lot and I just generally don't have a life. I also play a few other games like league and PUBG.
Is there anything else you'd like to add to your application?
No
Tell us a joke:
By law, you are required to turn on your headlights if it is raining in Sweden.
How the hell am I supposed to know if its raining in Sweden?
