I am aware barrage is utilised for spawns of G’huun in mythic Uldir.

How do you prioritize your stats and why?
Agility > Crit > Haste > Mastery > Versatility
Above is a depiction of what I have gathered from the data in tab secondary distributions on Bloodmallet for BM hunters.
Up until now the past two updates had shown crit > haste > # Currently 28/11/2018 stats are balanced:
I still however stick to my Agility > Crit > Haste > Mastery > Versatility. PS I am aware what each stat contributes and how to manage them. Crit hits the spot.

Raiding History:
Describe your previous/current raiding experience:
I began playing wow after Bfa release, no prior experience. 28/11/2018 I am 8/8 normal, 8/8 heroic, 2/8 Mythic.

Tell us about your previous guilds and your reasons for leaving them:
Friend who convinced me to begin playing wow invited me to Cheeky girls. The guild was not at all active, took advantage of the guild bonuses. I then began looking for active guilds and compiled a list according to guild progression.

I joined Salvation 7/8 heroic. Joining I was ahead of their raid progression as a guild. From pugs to a guild that used voice chat was great upside but the only upside. There was no progression for me. My short stay in the guild put in to perspective what type of guild I want to be in, so I spent some time progressing/ improving, now I hope to join Curse of Years, a cutting-edge guild.

Yes

Very attractive guild.

Tell us a joke:
=)

HAHAHAHA, that joke at the end is actually amazing. You should have linked Obelixianss too although you'd have to look too far down the list to find that slacker.

I've a quick question I'd love some more information on - you obviously have put a lot of thought into what guilds you want to join but you haven't given us much of a reason as to why you want to join Curse of Years.

What makes you think you'd be a good fit for us? With no prior raiding experience, no off spec experience and nowhere near our current level of progression why are you trying to jump right into end tier?

Hahah atleast he as a go get them attitude :D Could work out great.... or really really horrible! ... Would be interesting never the less! :D A win win situation if you ask me.

It is evident in the progression gap left behind Curse of Years the level of commitment and dedication from the players is unrivalled. These are the kinds of players I want to be surrounded by and can learn the most from.

I am well-adjusted mechanically and confident in my capability adapting to encounters. Having no prior raid experience has not diminished my experience yet nor have I had problems learning/ understanding mechanics. I jump at the opportunity to progress, that opportunity is best served with Curse of Years. As for off-specs I do have some experience playing them and knowledge of the specialisations however my loot focus has been exclusively on Beast Mastery so I cannot switch specs on the fly yet, it would not be optimal for me to do so, if I had completed gear-sets for Survival/ Marksmanship, sure I can. I chose Hunter with the intent to eventually progress on all specialisations, I am not at the point with BM hunter where I would like to switch or delve in to another spec. Apart from the other specs having higher potential DPS, there is not an urgency for them, Survival is an additional melee and Marksmanship is a slight DPS increase. Nevertheless, I do very much intend to play these specs.

Sorry for the super slow reply, haven't really been sure what to do with you since you're bellow what we'd usually be wanting to consider at this point and I hate taking people in that I'm just going to end up screwing over by failing, but since you're on the realm (a rarity in our low pop case), I don't have to feel guilty about it.

If you're still interested we're up for giving you a go as long as you understand we'll be expecting you to impress, and again, sorry for the super slow response.
