About You..

Your name, age, gender, hobbies?:
Name: Alex
Age: 18 (19 in 5 days, hype!)
Gender: Male
Hobbies: WoW... haha.


Where are you from?:
England

What's your PC spec, is it ready for 20 Mythic Raiding?:
Well it isn't a potato - I play on a laptop rather than a PC, as it's personal preference. Consistently have 30-40 FPS and have never really lagged in a raid. If I DC I'll be back within 2-4 mins.

Character Related Information

  • What spec you'r playing and what you can tell us about it (inc. talents, glyphs, most important usage of your abilities)?:
    Feral, best spec.
    Glyphs:
    Cat Form or Ninth Life depending on what I feel is best, though I much prefer passive damage reduction.
    Savage Roar because it works so well with Incarnation and makes stealth opener a thing
    Stampeding Roar because there really is no need for Rebirth glyph anymore and Roar is useless without it.

    Talents:
    T15: Displacer Beast, which I much prefer to a flat 15% boost.
    T30: Ysera's Gift because it's passive and it provides the most healing.
    T45: All kind of useless.. Typhoon as default, useful for Ko'ragh I spose?
    T60: Incarnation because it lets us actually burst for the first time ever.
    T75: Vortex as default, Bash for something like Garrosh adds w/ multiple intterupts.
    T90: DoC so I can macro Rejuv/HT to heal the Tank as well. Such HPS.
    T100: Bloodtalons, as it's the only real viable one. Lunar Inspiration is supposedly better DPS for Twin Ogron but I've never found it to be any good.

    'Rotation' wise - Keep up Roar, Bloodtalons before using Rip or Rake, or when PS has less than 2 seconds left. Make sure neither of those DoTs fall off, use Rejuv on empty GCDs. Use CDs with each other, obviously. Snapshot DoTs with TF where possible, using TF on CD. Refresh Rake at 5sec and Rip at 7 unless they'll fall off otherwise.

    Opener: HT > Prowl > Prepot > Rake > Shred to 5CP > Bite > Repeat 2x w/o lust or 3x with it, refreshing Rake as it's about to fall off > Refresh DoTs > continue as normal.

  • Paste your UI via [img]LINK[/img]:
    Image - Literally just ElvUI.
  • Link to your raid logs using [url]LINK[/url]:
    https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/D6Q8wFBXdWxTfKA7#fight=1&type=damage-done - Most recent farm raid. Have a look through, I was in for everything but Ogron and Tectii (I refuse to say Tectus, there's clearly more than one.)
  • Share your guild history as well as reason for leaving them and your current guild ?:
    Back in 2011 on SWC I was in a loooot of small guilds. I'm afraid I don't remember the names of them all but I did a bit of progress with them - Underestimated, Sanctum of Blood, Good Fortune, and Watch This Space. This made up the bulk of my Tier 11, 12, and 13 raiding experience. When we hit tier 14 I transferred with WTS to Draenor in search of a better raiding environment. It didn't work out and we were insanely slow to clear even MSV normal.
    This wasn't enough for me and so I decided to join Fifth Sin on Outland EU. This was my home for ToT and they were great people, just not the right raiding environemnt for me as a progressive minded player (And I didn't agree with the raid leading style either, but I digress..)
    After that I went to Ad Elysium, another guild who at the time was on Outland. Finished off ToT with them, killing Lei Shen with them after 360 HC wipes. This again made me realise how lacking the raids were and how I wanted more, which led me to transfer to my current guild, Myst. I loved and still love Myst more than anything but I took a break at the end of Siege, which caused us to 'drift apart' as it were. Someone rerolled feral and I just don't feel welcome there anymore, so I'm looking to expand my horizons. I know Ryan so why not try?

  • Describe your past/current raid experience:
    T11: 1/13 HC w/ pugs, 6/13 HC w/ Good Fortune, 13/13HC with pugs in 4.2.
    T12: 6/7 HC in 4.2 and 7/7 HC after MoP (Curse you, Rag, curse you...)
    T13: 8/8 HC in PuGs which I led at around 25%?

    T14: 5/16HC before 5.2 and 16/16 HC in PuGs after it.
    T15: 13/13 HC before 5.4 with 360 odd wipes on Lei Shen.
    T16: 14/14 HC before 6.0 with Myst.

  • Please list your alts via [url]LINK[/url]:
    http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/draenor/Salsify/advanced - Frost/Arcane though I much prefer Frost. 666 ilvl atm.

    http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/d ... i/advanced - My recently dinged Brewmaster. Not very experienced on him at all but it's fun :D

More Information..

  • Raid times: Can you agree with our raid times 21:00 to 00:00 Server time (UTC+1 also Sunday for extra raids)?:
    wednesday, thursday, sunday, monday
  • Teamspeak: Can you use, SPEAK and LISTEN to Teamspeak?:
    Yes
  • You and us: Would you be willing to modify or change your spec to assist the guild?:
    Yes
  • What our guild can benefit from your class and yourself as a player?:
    I'm always 99.99% prepared for raids. I often come up with tactics, whether they're good or not is up for debate. I'll always be here for progress within reason as I love the feeling of progressing, and I don't get tired of hard bosses as proven by the insane number of Lei Shen attempts.
  • What is your attitude towards progress/what motivate you in WoW?:
    I am a very progress minded player. As in, I love progress which is why I'm leaving Myst because they don't take me for it. Farm is fun too unless it's Siege levels of length where it starts to be really monotonous. I'm motivated to improve myself and the guild and kill stuff :D
  • Do you play outside raids or log only for them?:
    I play like 24/7... #nolife
  • Anything to add?:
    Yeah. Will I be given a spot for progress assuming I get accepted? Other than that, add Avacado#2506 if you have any other questions. Can also make a UI post in combat should that be required, not that much changes. Thanks!
  • Tell us a joke:
    Ryan's healing.

Sure that's no prob, my question was more about being given a fair opportunity to prove myself worthy of that spot, but you pretty much answered that also :D

Hi Avocado,
A couple of questions for you and a request.
It would be great if you could provide us with a screenshot being in a raid environment and in combat please.
What kind of addons do you use? Weakauras or TMW?
Do you think you could benefit from those in any way?

I used WA during MoP to track DoT strengths but as they don't snapshot with anything that isn't TF and BT anymore I haven't found a need for them, although I think my (current) guild started using them for intterupts on Imperator so I can't deny they'd be useful. Certainly willing to if there's a need.

The dot power tracking wa is still around for WoD and it is a must have for ferals.
Especially when you deal with more than one targets where things can get a bit hectic and good luck remembering which mob has the strong dot and which doesn't. I would highly recommend getting it.
Also WA/TMW or whatever tracking addon is always useful in raids for tracking specific abilities for your role or mechanics you could get assigned to deal with. I'm not saying DBM or ELV UI is inadequate, it's just sometimes those addons will make your life easier.

Where do you inform your self for feral stuff from?

1 more thing I forgot to ask,
How important do you think it is to stack TF with Berserk/Incarnation/Berserking etc. ?
