General:
Your Name, Age, Gender and Location:
Hey! My name is Trond. I'm 34 years old and live in Oslo, Norway
Tell us a little bit about yourself (non-WoW related Interests, Hobbies etc)
I work part time (I decided to work less than 100%) as a consultant in hydropower engineering. Appart from playing Wow I dabble in strategy games like AoE2, and the odd arpg game like d3 or poe seasons if I think they look interesting.
Other than playing games I used to climb a lot, but over the years I'm doing less and less of that, and now its more just the "casual" working out a few times a week - mostly running.

What strengths do you feel your class currently brings to the raid?
Last tiers boomkins have been FotM as NF during CN and venthyr during SoD - so dps-wise they've been very viable.
Appart from that very tanky with barkskin and bearform and mobile with tigerdash/dash/wildcharge. Its almost unfair towards other classes how tanky a boomkin can be with all things considered.
And also... Innervate
How comfortable are you playing your offspecs?
It depends. I do enjoy my boomkin a lot and feel I perform by far better on that than any other of my alts, or speccs.
With that being said, I have "filled" on various roles over the years:
ToS: 3rd tank and raid leader on KJ (made sense to just have me raid lead it since it was quite the snooze fest to be 3rd tank)
Uldir: rogue on zul, warlock on ghuun
EP: resto druid on orgonzoa and resto druid on Azshara https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSh_a3C34U0&t=1s

Last tiers we havent really done any "farm" - so this is only progresslogs.
The previous tiers are privatelogged - but if anyone is interested Id happily give you access to those.

Raiding History:
Describe your previous/current raiding experiences / guilds. including reasons for leaving them:
For the last 6 years (we formed in Nighthold) Ive been an officer and raider in the guild Aluren on Tarren Mill https://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/tarren-mill/Aluren
We decided after Sylvanas was dead that we would call it quits as a raid team, since the interest for keeping it going as a group was very low. I did enjoy my time there a lot, even though it at times felt like a second job to be officer with raid-prepp, recruitment and other issues to handle (but then again, someone had to do it).
More Information:
Can you meet our raid schedule of Wed/Thur/Mon 21:00 to 00:00 server time with at least 90% attendance?
Yes!
I will be going on 5 days of vacation in May though - but that is a rare occurance. Over the last 6 years in aluren i was away 1 week during BoD and 1 day in SoD.
What encouraged you to apply to Curse of Years?
Mostly the raiding times, since its not many guilds raiding as late. Appart from that I wanted to apply to a guild that had played for a decently long time together. I am not used to changing guilds a lot, having been in 3 total guilds since I started playing in wotlk - so it was important that the guild seemed endurable and not something that would disband at the first hurdle.
Do you play much outside of raiding?
Depends, I play a lot during the launch of new tiers to farm out M+ or pvp for gear - and then it gradually becomes less and less. I do like to have alts, and have all classes at max level, some played more than others.
Is there anything else you'd like to add to your application?
I do some PVP and if I see the benefit of it gearwise I usually do rbgs for high rating, was at 2450 during Castle Nathria since it gave access to "better than raid" gear.
I also think its rather fun (convoke the flag carry?) Probably one of the funniest moments of my rbg "career":
