WoW (NA)(Sargeras)Character Name Revaniz What is your class? Priest What is your main spec? Holy Please link your WoW Armory information http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/sargeras/revaniz/simple Explain your talent selection (theorycrafting source, specialization choices etc) My talent specialization choice is holy, but I can play all three specs, and will switch without hesitation if asked. One of my theory crafting sources is elitistjerks.com. Right now both of my specs are holy, I got rid of my shadow spec to show you my PVE holy build. What is your age? 18 What are your current professions and their raid benefit My current professions are Enchanting and Engineering. Jeeves, the glove pots, ring enchants, enchants in general. I'm getting my goggles soon, as I just spent approximately 4k leveling engineering up and I didn't bring all my money with me with I xferred to Sargeras, as soon as I get the money for truegold and hardened elementium I'll be even more prepared. How long you've been playing WoW and what PvE progression you've accomplished I've been playing WoW since about mid TBC, I started raiding about the time Ulduar came out, I was in a casual guild, I led pugs to yogg saron while relevant, when ToC came out I completed it in a pug while relevant, when ICC came out I moved into a raiding guild at about 10% buff, got kingslayer, and got to LK heroic while relevant. most recently I transferred here to pvp with friends, so I've only completed magmaw and omnitron defense system so far. Describe how you theorycraft your class (websites, spreadsheets, etc) If I feel I'm not performing as good as I could be I look at elitist jerks for advice and theory-crafting. I check them first, but I also customize based on playstyle. Occupation and living arrangements that impact raiding (family, schedule, etc) I'm in school at home so I have no schedule that impacts raiding or guild events =) List scheduling conflicts (include times for possible weekend 10mans) I'm not much for morning raiding, any time in the evening and even at night is fine. Guild History - where are you leaving and why I left my last guild because I decided to transfer to be with more friends I know in real life. I came from Kargath How did you hear about us? List any friends/references within the guild I seen a recruitment add in trade, at the same time you guys were looking for a healer for a 10man weekend. List your raid consumables and your method for maximizing them If I'm healing I use flask of the flowing water, 300 spirit, If I'm shadow I choose draconic mind which is 300 int. as for pots I have the Z50 mana gulper engi enchant on my gloves which gives me increased benefit from pots. Provide your raid damage/healing performance. Examples are Recount Screenshot with personal breakdown of attacks, WoW Web Stats (WWS), or World of Logs http://worldoflogs.com/guilds/14493/rankings/players/ Those logs are when I was holy and disc. If you look around you can see a few of the cata ones, I was more impressive in ICC though. Provide a screenshot of your UI I'll email it, Can you take constructive criticism and being call out on mistakes (both in and out of raid)? Yes Final comments you feel could help your application I'm very flexible, I can play all three specs well. I learn quickly, and rarely make the same mistakes. I don't mind competing for raid spots, and I can fulfill the role of a leader comfortably, and have in the past. Have you applied to the WoW usergroup? Yes
You appear to have a PVP spec currently selected. Can you confirm that you're logged out in your PVE gear/spec?
Thanks. I have some questions then: Why have you reforged crit into hit? Why haven't you reforged anything else? If you were to reforge your gear, in what order would you reforge stats? You're using pure mastery, spirit, and int gems. Why? If you were to put +40 or +20/+20 gems in everything, what gems would you use and why? You seem to value spirit very highly. Is this because of your current gear? If not, why? How would stat balance change as your gear changes? Explain your choice of glyphs (specifically, your lack of a lightwell glyph). Why did you spec into Desperate Prayer as opposed to something else? What other talents do you think could be chosen in lieu of it? What are your thoughts on Renew, its current usability, and getting an extra tick with haste?
1 Q: Why have you reforged crit into hit? Why haven't you reforged anything else? If you were to reforge your gear, in what order would you reforge stats? A: Thanks for pointing that out I had forgot I did that, I had reforged crit into hit for pvp purposes when I didn't have my epic pvp ring, I fixed that now, it's in haste instead of hit. I reforged all my crit into haste until I had 12.5% raid buffed haste for an extra tick with renew. I'm a goblin so I dont have to get as much, and I can go back to mastery. 2 Q: You're using pure mastery, spirit, and int gems. Why? If you were to put +40 or +20/+20 gems in everything, what gems would you use and why? A: I was trying to gem universally, I have pure int gems for disc (rapture) pure blues for spirit (current gear and) and pure mastery because it's just good. I'm at the haste for the extra renew tick so I need to look at mastery more anyway. Rawr will help in the priority of my stats and gems. If I were to use +20/+20 gems I would gem yellows as int/haste or int/mastery, I would gem red's as pure int still, and my blues would be spirit/mastery, spirit/haste, or spirit/int. 3 Q: You seem to value spirit very highly. Is this because of your current gear? A: Absolutely. when I get better gear, and more intellect, I'll be able to tone it down. 4 Q: Explain your choice of glyphs (specifically, your lack of a lightwell glyph). A: People are going to click the well? I can't wait to drop guardian spirit for LW then, LW is amazing when it's used. I don't like being one out of two people in a group who uses it. I'm sure you feel the same way when Lightwell isn't being used to it's full potential. 5 Q: Why did you spec into Desperate Prayer as opposed to something else? What other talents do you think could be chosen in lieu of it? A: I think it's good to have an oh shit button for yourself if you catch yourself in a bad situation, it doesn't cost mana, it's instant, and it saves a few flash heals, that's mana savings right there. I wouldn't mind dropping it for darkness. 6 Q: What are your thoughts on Renew, its current usability, and getting an extra tick with haste? A: I believe I answered this in question 1 and 2, even one extra tick is allot of throughput, with sanctuary up, rolling renew on a few people it's just amazing. To clarify it's an important priority, and that's why I made sure I'm 12.5% raid buffed. If you're curious about anything else just ask.
An update: Got my Kill-shades =) If I'm going to get accepted or declined I'd like an answer soon. I'm wasting guild rep with every quest I do.
True, Lime and I are discussing your application now, thanks for being patient. We are addressing a few things, will post update soon.
