1. Age (18+ Requirement): 26 2. In-Game Name: Idiom 3. Do you have vent and a mic?: Yes 4. Previous gaming experience: WoW - TBC from Kara through KJ pre3.0, Currently all Wrath content up to H LK. http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Korialstrasz&cn=Illicit is my main (mage). Alts of note: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Korialstrasz&cn=Illycit http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Korialstrasz&cn=Clearli Aion - made it to 39 or so on my ranger. Server imbalance (Zikel ironically, pretty sure XoO was on Elyos on there), really awful guild at the time, and general lack of interest in the game made me put it down and swap back over to WoW after about 3 weeks. Guildwars - Largely in Dead Presidents [Prez] - Played this from Beta through eye of the north, hit r9 in HoH farily early on, played against you guys a few times in Gvg although I think that was before XoO really became a force in Gvg. Ended up quitting due to friends leaving and new games coming out, swapped over to WoW. I really enjoyed the pvp in Guildwars, really got me to swap from FPS and RTS to MMO's despite not really being an MMO itself. BF2142 / Counter-strike / War3 ladder: Games I played in various degrees of competition. Cal-i for CS, rank 20 or so in the world for a while on BF2142 and top 20 3v3 RT (inoright). Also been playing Heroes of Newerth, although taking a break cause current matchmaking is AWFUL.... 5. Why did you choose XoO?: I remember you all being very organized in GW and AION and after starting AION with a really awful guild I don't want to make that same mistake going into Tera (as Tera looks amazing). After playing WoW at a very high level: ~top 120 US for a brief while I'm looking for a guild that can mirror that sense of competition. If there are world bosses, then I want to be in the guild killing them, not in some random non-name guild sitting around watching it all go down. I see XoO as being one of those guilds and I really like the sense of community and connection that XoO seems to have. 6. Why do you think you'll be a good fit?: I've been a strong player in every game I got really excited about so far, I'm also a team player who likes to accomplish goals and achieve rare things in games. I'm also a very mature and intelligent player. XoO seems like a place with like-minded individuals. 7. What will you contribute to the guild: I'm already used to the raid mentality as well as being assigned a role to perform and carrying that out. I would bring another reliable player, who will not only show up, but be able to perform on a similar level as the rest of the guild. I don't consider myself a pro pvper, but I do feel like I grasp concepts. I also consider myself to be a fast learner who goes out of the way to research relavant info. 8. How will you improve our guild and be a valued member?: I'm a very active player, and I will do my best to pass on any knowledge that I glean from playing, as well as help guildies with reasonable requests. 9. Do you have a referal?: I do not. It's been way too long to remember whose who from GW, or most likely for anyone to remember me. 10. A little bit about yourself: I'm 26, avid gamer currently looking for a new game to play to death after getting really bored of WoW. Tera caught my eye with the Gauntlet style game play. When I'm not playing games I go out with the Fiannce' (spelling?). Getting married this year... I feel so old.... Fun fact: After I bought a new gaming computer I no longer have Office and hench no spell check. Hopefully I didn't miss any. 11. Activity Level? (hrs/week) (minimum of 30 hours a week requirement) Usually 40+ np, for a fun game a lot more, for the release of Tera I will be on when I'm not sleeping or working, after that it will taper off a little, but I tend to be on often. Used to raiding 3-5 nights a week for 4 hours at a time, usually online doing alt stuff / crafting / making money on the AH, or doing random raids / pvp when not raiding. 12. Apply to usergroup: XoO Member Probation 13. The not part on the app stuff: I was looking through some of the other apps you all have received and figured since it is likely you will ask me these questions I'll go ahead and address them. Aion v BFBC2: I don't know a whole lot about BFBC2, but I'd be down for either of these, I don't know if I want to commit to 30+ hours as a solid commitment, but I'd be down to play either of them with a decent amount of frequency. Typical Archetype: I played a ranger in Aion, a mage in WoW (as well as hunter and druid (tank & heals mostly)). I am currently likely going to be playing an Archer or a Sorc (probably Archer) in Tera. I did look at the lancers, and I do enjoy tanking, but I didn't really vibe on the lance using tank theme in tera. Small aside: I play pretty much every game with my fiannce' and she will most likely be applying as well. While I'm by no means saying that you should accept us both, it is unlikely that I would be playing without her. As we have similar experience and goals (shes not quite as into pvp though), I do not forsee this being a major issue. Feel free to ask me anything else I might have missed.
Welcome, a very nice application. We now have a TERA usergroup. If you would please apply to that usergroup instead now. After that I have no further questions. Your application is very nice.
Hey man check this out, I as well couldn't spell my way out of a life and death situation... http://www.iespell.com/download.php
Alright I have applied to the proper usergroup. Fiancée's out of town till monday or so, but she'll toss up an app when shes back.
ACCEPTED. Probation ends after 30 days. Post around and get to know everyone. Make sure you check out the New Recruits Guide for TERA and do what it says. The game will be a while till release so stay active on the forums. Whenever they release the next testing phase you are welcome to join us in vent and in game. Vent info is stickied in the Members Area. We encourage you to look at games we are currently playing and give them a shot until release to get to know us and for us to get to know you.
Wow, very nice App. Specially like the additional touch of looking into the questions that were being asked of the other applicants. Welcome!
Cool another future archer hopefully we can get some pvp in together. Oh and HoN is pretty cool but if you by any chance decide to do some LoL I'd help you out for sure.
