    Guild Wars 2 Application
    How old are you?
    26
    What is your in-game account name?
    ExoGeni.9248
    Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a working microphone?
    Yes
    What are the top five games that influenced you most?
    Started gaming in 92 with the Sega Genesis. I've had at least one console of each generation since (Genesis, N64, PS2, Xbox, 360, PS3) . . . in 2009 I built my own computer just to play AION mainly, but I am now getting more into PC gaming over console gaming.

    Top five games that influence:
    1. RF Online - first MMO experience, I learned the basics of MMO's and partying/grinding/farming.
    2. AION - taught me alot about massive PvP in the Abyss. Taught me the various roles that characters have in the trinity (Melee, Range, Healer), got me to be active with people, more outgoing.
    3. Halo and Battlefield series - taught me about teamwork and communication.
    4. PSO (Xbox version) - not technically an MMO, but a multiplayer game with lots of grinding and farming. Taught me to enjoy it!
    5.. Deus Ex - PC game from 2000, not much to say, except that it's my most "favorite game" to date.
    What kind of content do you prefer to play?
    WvW
    What guilds have you played with and what roles did you have within the guild?
    RF Online - In the beginning I was with Section 8 (sister guild of Tranquility) then shifted to Dynasty for a short bit before the server merge, then it was Insane and later Xervioso until the game died. Role was mainly DPS and tanking from time to time.

    AION - helped start a small guild from release named "HeavenSent", it lasted for about 6 months before people got tired and broke. Joined "PerfectInsanity" and became a well respected member. I was the secondary guild tank with my templar and later a main DPS with my spirit master. The AION guild died, but many of the people moved over to "Shadow Brigade" which I have joined and keep in contact with them from time to time.

    GW2 - At the start, I didn't join a guild for a few weeks until the guild leader of "Noster Furor Est" recruited me. I quickly rose up in rank with my mesmer at the time and became an officer mostly for WvW claiming, buffs, and recruiting. Sadly, the guild came to a crawl and I found an open guild named SaS (Saints and Sinners) that I am currently in. I've partied a few times with them, and they are a great group of people.
    What attracts you to this guild more than others?
    I've known about XoO ever since the days of RF Online. I've made a few friends in the guild and partied with them many times during the years of RF Online. Matter of fact, it was TheVan, who I knew from RF Online, that I found on GW2 that got me interested in joining the guild.
    What will you contribute to the guild?
    Cannon fodder for WvW. A cool head for when people get into arguments. Someone to talk to in TeamSpeak. Honestly, someone who's willing to do about anything for the guild members.
    What are some of your achievements in Guild Wars 2?
    I know most of the maps and how to reach the various POI's and Vistas. Map completition is about 65% on two characters. I've battled in WvW many times, I know the layout for the various BG's, I know the JP in EB, I'm somewhat good with tactics in WvW (always go for supply camps before towers), I've done AC many times, and I'm starting to get into other dungeons as well. I know the guardian and mesmer classes fairly well, so I'm a good source to ask questions about them.
    Do you have a good computer and internet connection that can handle WvW zergs?
    Yes
    What classes and builds do you play efficiently?
    Mesmer - Sword & Gun build with staff as secondary weapon. It's mainly for phantasm/clone build and condition damage.

    Guardian - GS build and sword & shield as secondary weapon. Mainly go for power, vitality, condition damage, and toughness.
    Do you play on North American or European servers?
    NA
    A little bit about yourself?
    Name is Andy, I work full-time in an IT position from 8 to 5, M-F. In my free time, I'm usually on GW2 doing the dailys and jumping in WvW for some action. I do sometimes take a break for a day or two, just because I don't want to get burned out too quickly.
    How many hours do you play per week, on average?
    20
    Were you reffered to XoO? If so, enter the name of the person who referred you to XoO
