    1. Character Info: Name, Class, Main Spec (Link armory):
    Nihility - Paladin -Ret http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Sargeras&cn=Nihility

    2. Explain your talent selection (theorycrafting source, specialization choices etc):

    At the moment im specced to maximize dps while also offering help with damage mitigation. I.E Divine Sacrifice

    3. Your Age: 25

    4. Current professions and their raid benefit: Blacksmithing and Jewelcrafting. Both professions increase my dps which in turn helps the raid.

    5.How long you've been playing WoW and what PvE progression you've accomplished: I started playing in January 2009. Started with Naxx, progressed through that, completed up to Yogg in Ulduar before I took a break. Came back this year and so far ive done 12/12 ICC 10 and 25. 7/12 HM ICC 10 and 5/12 HM ICC 25


    6. Describe how you theorycraft your class (websites, spreadsheets, etc):
    I look on elitistjerks.com to see optimal gear and RAWR to play around with different items.

    7. Occupation and living arrangements that impact raiding (family, schedule, etc): Im currently living in a dorm. Usually done with work and classes by 4pm. After that im free.

    8. List scheduling conflicts (include times for possible weekend 10mans): No conflicts for me really. As i stated above, im usually free after 4pm.

    9. Guild History - where are you leaving and why: WAS HERE - Bloodscalp. Reason for leaving: Quit WoW. Postal Haste - Sargeras - Reason for leaving: I just felt as a guild we were regressing rather than progressing. Lots of people coming in and out. So I guess you could say i just want something more stable.

    10. How did you hear about us? List any friends/references within the guild:
    Tendeuce told me I should apply.

    11. List your raid consumables and your method for maximizing them:
    I use flasks of endless rage and potions of speed. I usually try to double pot speed pots if possible.

    12. Provide your raid damage/healing performance. Examples are Recount Screenshot with personal breakdown of attacks, WoW Web Stats (WWS), or World of Logs:
    http://www.wowmeteronline.com/combat/log/1791865 - That is from my last raid

    13. Provide a screenshot of your UI:

    14. Can you take constructive criticism and being call out on mistakes (both in and out of raid)?
    Yes

    15. Final comments you feel could help your application:
    Im a pretty easy going person, wont really start any drama. Currently have 5.7k gs tank and heal sets so i could possibly fill in one day there. Other than that, i look forward to hearing back.

    Not being an ass but I take it the only reason you are 5/12HM ICC25 is because Night bought Kingslayer? You made a good choice leaving them and apping here.

    I remember playing with you and you were defiantly a good player. You have my vote.

    Gemming/enchanting looks solid - just wondering why you put str/crit in your legs though without any type of socket bonus.

    Talent selection looks good - standard ret raiding build.

    For glyphs however, I was under the impression glyph of consecration is a must. Exorcism is only a 50 DPS increase. Glyph of consecration helps conserve quite a bit of mana in the long run, and it frees up some GCD clash resolutions.

    Other than that, looks like a solid app in my opinion.

    I put str/crit in my legs because at the time i was poor and only had access to an ametrine, never thought to change it because theres not much of a difference in dps. I tried glyph of consecration, but imo, it all came down to personal preference. I never really have mana issues and I noticed me having alot more idle time with the cons glyph. Then again, i guess it comes down to who im raiding with. I just found the extra dps from exo glyph more useful on fights where im moving around than the cons glyph
