    TERA Online Application
    How old are you?
    22
    In-Game Name?
    Akildah
    Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a mic?
    Yes
    What is your primary class?
    Warrior
    Why did you choose XoO:
    I consider myself a perfectionist and I believe choosing a guild that's perfect for me is invaluable to my gaming experience. When I was playing Aion, I heard about the feats of XoO from my legion members. I heard how well-organized XoO was and how they were dominating the server. While surfing the Tera boards, I was happy to find that XoO will be participating in Tera.
    Previous Gaming Experience:
    Diablo 2 - Played a long time ago. My best was probably a 93 hardcore PVP necromancer.

    Ragnarok Online - Played semi-competitively. My guild was pretty small but as a SinX, I was able to take castles from time to time solo. I also played professor and high priest occasionally.

    Starcraft - Played casually with friends.

    World of Warcraft - My most notable achievement is being a troll mage in Exodus on Kel'Thuzad (now on Ysondre), back before WoTLK. We competed competitively for world firsts. If new content had been released, we would start raiding noon PST and go until 1-2am. This would continue until the new content had been cleared. We got M'uru world first and top 5 for most of SWP bosses. Even though I raided mainly on my mage, I have experience healing as a priest and tanking as a druid. Any free time left would be spent on grinding consumables for raid and doing arena. I had gladiators on three characters. My mage had 2100+ in 2s and 2300+ in 5s. My rogue had 2100+ in 2s and 3s. My druid had 2300+ in 2s and 2200+ in 3s. I quit shortly before WoTLK came out due to some real life issues.

    Atlantica Online - Played casually, hitting level 105, quitting because I could not find a decent guild to join.

    Aion - I was the main tank and Templar class lead for Condemned. I was one of the first Templars on the server to hit level 50 and the first Templar to complete the Miragent set. My party (Conris being one of them) was able to attain an A rank in DP before the first nerf one month after release. However, due to a lack of dedicated members in Condemned and a server unbalance, our legion slowly fell apart and I no longer found the motivation to continue playing.

    Starcraft II - Play casually. I'm a Platinum ranked player but didn't feel like climbing the ladder. I do play a lot of Desert Strike though.

    League of Legends - Play casually. 450 wins, 1500 ranked. I main Ashe, Mordekaiser, and Kassadin. Currently practicing Irelia and Rammus.
    Why do you think you'll be a good fit?
    I'm an avid fan of MMOs: all aspects of it. I love the interactions between guild mates, discussing PVE/PVP strategies, farming and running dungeons together. I may not be the most talkative person in the room but I do my fair share of talking.
    What will you contribute to the guild?
    I am very guild-oriented and place guild objectives over my own. In addition, I have a great deal of experience with MMOs; I have played all three roles in PVE and PVP. I am very active and consider myself a hardcore MMO player. I take criticism very well and adjust my play accordingly.

    I chose the role of a tank because the only thing worse than a bad healer is a bad tank. I help alleviate the problem by choosing one of the roles. I chose Warrior because I remember the evasion tank assassins in Aion and found them to be interesting.
    Localization:
    NA
    Do you have a referral?
    -
    A little bit about yourself?
    I'm Asian and currently studying Environmental Science in college. It's a pretty laid-back major so I have a lot of free time to myself.

    I'm a perfectionist and I must do things to the best of my ability.
    Activity level?
    55 hours/week at minimum
    Do you have a high speed internet connection and a good computer?
    Yes
    Have you applied to the TERA usergroup?
    Yes

    For the sake of clarity: Are you physically based in NA?

    Also, would you consider playing any class other than a Warrior?

    I'm in Seattle, GMT-8 for who find this more convenient.

    I would much prefer a tanking or healing role. Since Priests and Lancers are a higher recruitment priority, I don't mind either one, whichever one XoO is lacking more.

    Thanks. Can you break down your activity level, like how many hours on a week day versus on the weekend?

    I usually play around 6-8 hours on the weekdays, upwards of 12 hours on the weekends.
