Postby Mellana » Thu Jan 07, 2010 8:40 pm

1 - What is the name of your character?
Mellana

2 - Has your character always had this name? If not, explain why.
No this is the name of my character after i have moved from Emeriss (hord -> alliance).

3 - What is your character's class?
Warrior

4 - What is your total time played with this character and what is your time played with this character at your current level? *
Total time played : 23days
Total time played 80 lvl : 6 days

5 - Do you want to apply for a raiding spot or a social spot?**
This application is for raiding spot.

6 - What is your character's primairy talent spec? (in numbers, example 2/48/11) Why did you choose this spec?
I dont have dual spec (never wanted to dps) so my only spec is Protection : 5/8/58

7 - What kind of experience do you have with other talent specs on this character?
(those applying for a social spot may skip this question if they want and continue with question 8 )
I have always play as protection so none (leveled like that also)

8 - Please link your armorypage url (with your primairy item kit if possible)
http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet ... &n=Mellana

9 - Why do you use this item kit?
(those applying for a social spot may skip this question and the next 2 if they want and continue with question 12)
This is the best i could get being guildless so far.
As a general idea i am aiming for better mitigation then ttl (though stamina is also important , especially if you try to find spot for pug 10 men :) .

10 - Which of the items you use have the highest priority to be replaced and with what?
Belt afcorse.

11 - Do you have any other items/kits that might be useful?
No i dont. Gathering some fury gear for raiding situations that dont require
2 or more tanks but someone will have to show me how warrior dps works befor that ;)

12 - What kind of guild do you think AG Praetorian Guard is?
Social raiding guild. Hope it is not too hard core for me.

13 - Describe the role of your class/spec in raids and its mechanics. Be as precise as you can. Show us you know your class inside-out. (example: spelldamage coeffcients, need of particular stats or attributes)
(those applying for a social spot may skip this question and the next 2 if they want and continue with question 16)
Well in most situations(raids) you dont want to irritate the tank becose he may accidantly get agro slip away in your diraction , good tank has to know where his most hated guildies are so he can turn the boss and kill them with directional dmg output , and to finish with tanking role (as every tank form his part want not to irritate healer becose he is in their hands ) the good tank need to have as much mitigation as he can get and need to stay alive (time to live = stamina ) as long as possible. That is in short.

14 - How do you prepare for raids?
Try to get kido and wife tranquillised so i can play... and bringing along foods , flask and health pots :)


15 - What is your raiding experience in Azeroth, Outland and Northrend?
Have raided everything in Azeroth , have almost no xp in Outland nor Northrend.

16 - Why do you want to get into AG Praetorian Guard?
I remember the guild from the old days so it sound solid to me.. and not to elitish :)


17 - Why would we want you in AG Praetorian Guard?
If you need tanking personality willing to learn and not taking everything too serious this is me.

18 - On which days of the week are you able to attend raids?
(those applying for a social spot may skip this question and the next if they want and continue with question 20)
i think i can come to all 3 weekly raids , in worst case i can take part 2 times a week in raiding activities.

19 - We use TeamSpeak during our raids. Are you familiar with TS or Ventrillo and do you actually use it? (Talking aswell as listening)
I have both installed and have worked with (long time ago though)

20 - Which other guilds have you been in in the past? (please name them all)
Blood Pact

21 - What are your alternate characters? (please add class, spec and level)
I dont play alts a lot , becouse i dont have much time to.

22 - Which of your alts would you be willing to make your main in AG Praetorian Guard, in case we can only offer that particular class/spec a raiding spot and not the one your applying with? Also mention if you are willing to respec yes or no and with which character.
(those applying for a social spot may skip this question if they want and continue with question 23)
I think i can be only tank sorry :(

Hi Mellana,

A few questions to help us decide:
- you don't have an offspec kit. Given the fact we don't require people to attend a certain number of raids, we have more tanks than necessary for any single raid, which means that if every one of them signs up some have to DPS. Are you willing to invest in a DPS set too?
- Your raiding experience in northrend and outland is very limited. Can you elaborate on why that is? Also, can you live with the fact that as long as you're learning, you might be given a supporting role rather than the MT job?

and last but not least: thanks for your interest ;) We'll need a few more days to decide.

Hello agian ,

About first question :
I sense that now with this 2 talent trees and so on i will be forced to get some dps gear and i start to roll for items in heroics and gather some triumph for that purpose. It is fine by me to bring dps gear in raids , as long as i gather it , becouse there are situations where only one tank is needed so why waste dps place .. but the problem is i really dont know how to dps (with warrior) and someone will have to wolk me through on that.

About 2th question :
Yes i am aware of the fact that you guys probably have a main tank so i am supposed to play supporting role in the enconters.

And to finish with , for me , it is perfectly fine to take your time with your decision , i will wait as long at it will take.

Regards,
Mellana

Hi Mellana,

Sorry to kept you waiting, but recently one of our retired tanks picked up the game again. Therefore the vacancy we had doesn't exist anymore - you'd have to DPS nearly full-time, and your answers suggests that's not really your cup of tea. I regret that we have to reject your application.

I wish you best of luck in WoW and outside of it.

regards,
