Describe your choice of talents and why you've chosen them:
I think going into Shadowlands the basic premise of the Holy Priest and it's talents remain the same;

Due to the high efficiency of our COH/POH Prayer of Circle would become the sensible raid choice, ableit it still being a rather underwhelming addition considering the mana cost of POH, but in high burst situations it has it's uses.
Divine Star on paper looks better than Halo but this is taking into account it hits all 20 players on the way out and back (which has never happened....ever) so i am still looking to go Halo.
Salvation remains the number one pick of our big cooldowns and with the reintroduction of power infusion it adds an extra 20% to our renews when coupled together which is a nice boost. Obviously on DPS checks etc, PI would be going to the top DPS classes.
The biggest change to HPriest comes from our covenant ability (Kyrian) which is Boon of the ascended;

This spell gains us another large AOE heal to our arsenal as well as additional damage (which is more applicable to M+) on a three minute cooldown this will enhance our throughput even more and make us a great choice for the start of the expansion.
How do you prioritize your stats and why?

Going into Shadowlands it looks like our stat prio will be;
Int>Mastery>Versatility>Crit>Haste
Crit out weighs Vers but in this initial stages of the expansion and Tier i have found it good to go with Vers for that added survivability
Where do you acquire knowledge about your Class?
Numerous places but the main ones at the moment are as follows;
HowToPriest
Warcraft Priest
AutomaticJak
Icy Veins
Wow Head
PTR
Fatboss

Raiding History:
Describe your previous/current raiding experience:
Tell us about your previous guilds and your reasons for leaving them:
The Logical Cube (Magtheridon/Eonar) - Server Firsts on Broodlord all the way up to C'thun and 5 bosses in Naxx.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmYlMfUA-2c
Eyeballers Wow (Magtheridon TBC) - World 30 Illidan Stormrage Kill
Cold Logic (Anachronos TBC) - I was the founder, GM and raid leader of CL who were the most succesful reroll project ever to come out of Europe, we we went onto down everything up to Kalecgos in four months of raiding overtaking everyone on the server of choice.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3A5Lg8yji3A
Reign (Quel'Thalas TBC) - Top 100 Worldwide end of the TBC - Pre nerf Muru Kill.
Inevitable/Alius Orbis (Doomhammer WOTLK) 126th Yogg Saron, 3rd in the world to complete Champions of Ulduar - Top guild DPS record for patchwerk in the world.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewx0Evih2hk
Fear Nothing (Azuremyst WOTLK) - Server 1st Guild on Azuremyst achieving our KS titles back in March.
Animus (Hellscream CATA) - GM/Raid Leader - Server 2nd (Firelands)
http://www.youtube.com/user/AnimusGuild
Aquila (Hellscream CATA) - Server 1st - Top 500 kill on Spine of Deathwing
Imperium (Nagrand MOP) Server 1st - World 700 T14 - Top 300 Ra'den Kill , Top 200 Garrosh Kill.
Since MOP i have dipped in an out of expansions and played reasonably casually (in comparison) and have come back to the game full time at the end of BFA experiencing up to 10/12 Mythic Nyalotha. However without a guild progress is pretty difficult. So with SL fast approaching i want to start off wihtin a capable guild.
More Information:
Can you meet our raid schedule of Wed/Thur/Mon 21:00 to 00:00 server time with at least 90% attendance?
This timing and schedule works perfectly for me with work, on this basis i am available 100%.
We also raid on Sunday at the start of a new raiding tier. Are you aware of this?
I wasn't - but that's absolutely fine.
Are you able to Listen and Speak on Teamspeak?
Yes and Yes.
What qualities do you bring to a Raid?
I am an extremely dedicated player, who has prooven track record at a good standard of play. I'm very self analytical and will always strive to better myself, i pride myself on making minimal mistakes and when i do i learn fast and will not repeat them.
My passion is raiding - i love wiping, i love learning and i very much enjoy the camaraderie first kills entail. I'd very much like to get back into a guild that cares about progress and has a good time whilst doing so.
How comfortable are you playing your offspecs?
I can play Disc to a good standard, however my DPS is very much to be desired, it would be something i'd be more than prepared to work on however.
How do you feel about progression raiding?
Progression raiding is my passion, the preperation, the rush of the first kill, the tweaks and the changes, individuals improving each attempt, culminating in a guild wide accomplishment. Inject it into my veins!
Where did you hear about Curse of Years and do you know anyone in the guild?
Through Wow Progress and no i dont know anyone in the guild as far as i am aware.
What encouraged you to apply to Curse of Years?
I'll be really honest, you're the only capable guild on a 3+ day schedule that raids past 20:00. 7 GMT is pushing it a little for me and one tiny fuck up on the trains means i could potentially be late. So this allows me loads of time to prepare for a raid.
Obviously also the great progression last tier and the great progression from the start of the tier 538 Gh'uun to a top 300 kill on Nzoth is amazing progression throughout the expansion.
Do you play outside of raid?
I do yep, i enjoy PVP and M+ and will be around to contribute to anything outside of raid hours.
Is there anything else you'd like to add to your application?
Not sure if you're actively recruiting a healer at the moment as your WoW Progress was updated 17 days ago, but i thought i'd give it a go regardless.
Tell us a joke:
"Doc, I can't stop singing The Green, Green Grass of Home. He said: 'That sounds like Tom Jones syndrome.' 'Is it common?' I asked. 'It's not unusual' he replied.
