CHARACTER INFORMATION
Nickame: Infamous
Armory Link: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/r … s/advanced
Mainspec: Windwalker
Offspec: Brewmaster
Professions: Enchanting / lw 600
Regardless of its quality (ilvl), is you gear fully taken care of? Safe for some specific cases (eg. an item about to be replaced next week), we expect everything to be gemmed, enchanted and reforged optimally. We will likely consult your profile with Mr. Robot. If you're doing something different than it indicates, please explain the reasoning.
My gear is fully taken care of.
http://i39.tinypic.com/2jfg0tc.png Ask mr robot with Roro activated on mastery is 100% wrong. The reason is that ask mr robot dont really like my hit cap. If i followed Ask mr robot blindly my trinket would be useless.
Before roro i also used Ask mr robot. But the problem with windwalker monks compared to other classes is that the cap of haste can be compared to the Players skills. The worse of a player you are the more haste you should go. if you play 100% perfect as WW monk you should only need 6.4 k haste. Most monks go for 6800 haste / 7100 haste. Also the stat value is wrong and i have never found a site who can confirm how the stats should be valued. I was so frustrated i logged on Twisting nether and asked the Windwalker monk in Method. I use the program zephyrus to calculate my stats !
Do you get enough valor on a weekly basis to upgrade your gear as much as possible?
Every item is upgraded. Also i farm 1 k valor each week.
What do you consider the most significant pros and cons of your class/spec in the current state of affairs:
no stormlash / skull banner and i am no ranged.
Shitloads of mobility . A lot of self defensive cooldowns like Touch of karma / fortifying brew expel harm.
Also we got Zen meditation who is a Minor raid cooldowns and a huge personal cooldown.
monk also do a lot of damage !
Tell us about your alts (armory links included), how good are you with them:

Guilds:
Revolution:
This was in early tbc and i really enjoyed playing with the raiders there.
Ultima Thule:
Late tbc / early wotlk
My best raiding experience in wow. We did really well but we struggled a lot with recruiting new members .
Guild stopped raiding and almost everyone left.
Stasis: I joined the guild when Dragon soul came out. The problem for me in this guild was that i first played a class i did not enjoy and that all my friends quit wow / took a break i was alone on ravencrest and dragon soul was extremly boring. Also some of the officers are stuck in theyr on views about how they should play theyr class / role. They really managed to fuck that guild up.
Order of the white tiger:
Early Throne of Thunder progress.
The guild after 100 progress wipes on Jinrock heroic still did not do anything about the bad people the problem also was that the bad people was some of the officers who always had to try to time theyr ice blocks / Ams. Atleast 30% of the wipes was because people rather played for theyr own e-peen than guild progress. The guild leaders really managed to fuck that guild up on a short time. Recruiting ele shammys with 50k dps and 520 ilevel and not saying a single fucking word when we have 30 active raiders was just shocking in my eyes. Bad people could stay since they were friends of the leaders and the good people left because they actully wanted to progress. I do really hate the leaders of this guild because they managed to destroy somthing really good.
What attendence should we realistically expect from you (for the sake of clarity, please note that while our Monday and Thursday raids start at 19.30, the Sunday one starts at 18.45). If you can't make it on any of our raiding days on a general basis, do not apply.
90% ++ I had 100% attendance in the last guild i stayed with.
Any external factors affecting activity we ought to know about (some flexibility applies, but we really want players able to join all 3 raids a week):
No
Why are you good at playing your class (don't qoute Elitist Jerks, don't give us the stuff every semi decent guide holds; convince us you're good your own way):
Extremly high competatitve player who never gives up before everything i do is perfect. I max out everything and focus on what i did wrong last time and i fix it. Checking out everything about this class since it first got announced. and ofc practice is everything.
When approaching new content, a fight that both you and the raid will try for the first time, how do you prepare (be precise here, "I read tactics on internet" doesn't cut it; we seen our share of players who" knew tactics for all bosses" and then failed miserably in terms of actual preparations):
Trying to find Videos from my perspective as windwalker monk / other melees. What i have done now with tot heroic tactics who have only been 2 bosses is to read and understand every aspect of the fight and understand what my class can do on that fight like Diffuse magic on ionization on Jinrock heroic to clear that buff instantly. I have not read any tactics at all on the fight you guys have cleared / progressing on but will the time come where i will be accepted to this guild i will do my best to not be a burden on the fights you guys have cleared / progressing on. I also asks silly questions if that will prevent me wiping the raid !
GUILD RELATED
Why are you applying to The Enigma Order, what made you choose us, when and where did you first hear about us:
My first plan was to make an apply to Ad Infinitum but its a little bit hardcore for me and they have already cleared the content. I do trully belive i am skilled enoufh to be in a rank 100 guild they also raid 5-6 days during progress and that can be a little to much if i have cordinate raiding with irl stuff.
The reason i choosed The Enigma Order specific is mostly because a friend of me also made an apply to you guys. And hoping for the best that both get accepted. I also want to join a guild that raids around 10 hours a week.
What do you expect from us, as a guild:
To give me a chance to prove what i can. And that my gear is probably not the best but i still can play really well with my current gear.
Please confirm that you have read and understood our rules and they are ok for you (yes, this is our way to ensure we're not asked somewhat silly questions that are already answered in writing at the Rules section of the forum):
Everything is okey except the Paladin using dkp on leather thingy. Dont think that agility etc scales well for ret paladin anymore.
When unsure about any aspect of the game, be that tactics, class specific assignments, how do you proceed:
Tactics = Google > Windwalker (boss) tactics. If no Search found who can give me the information i need i search for boss tactics.
Class Specific Assignments = Icy Veins profile on Windwalker is not so bad atm. Also if i am really unsure about somthing i check if some of the top monks are online they always answer friendly!
Why do you play WoW, what are your objectives, why commit more than 10 hours a week to a computer game:
Its like a job i really like its fun and all my friends play it. Also i love the Pve aspect of the game and i also like a pvp.
Is there anything else you would like to include that may assist your application.
I know my current progress is very shitty! I am not the type of person who Declines all progress wipes and only join the Farmer raids. I really hate not getting any progress. If you see i do somthing wrong please tell me i am not a person who get offended.
Also if you got any questions about just ask me in Infamous on ravencrest or add me on real id erlingoda@hotmail.com

Thank you for the application, we will do our best to get back to you shortly. I may add that at a first glance I like you comments in regards to mr. robot suggestions for ww monk. It's also some extremely neat balancing of mastery, crit and haste you did there, even if haste strikes me as fairly high.
You mentioned a friend applying to us as well - as far as I can see yours is the only recent application, I understand that I should be on a lookout for another one?
Meanwhile, by means of an open question (i.e. no good and bad answer), I wonder what is your view on the 5.4 mastery change for monks? How do you expect ww monks will be gearing, reforging once the change goes live?
There is also the matter of you not being a gnome, which is just total nonsense, but I've now lost hope in mankind when it comes to this.

The reason haste is "high" is because mastery is completly useless when you dont use your tigereye brew while mastery is superior when you use it.
The point is to have mastery as low as possible without the trinket procs and as high as possible with it. I could go like 10k mastery, 10k critt and 6 k haste but then i would have 2 k mastery who would been useless when i dont use my tigereye brew. Also haste scales really good with more than 6. 9 k haste. The end result will still be the same mastery. just that i will have less mastery when i dont need it !
I really hate the changes on the mastery. They only did it because RoRo makes monk scale insanely with gear. After the changes monk will probably go for hit/expertise 7.5% > agility > haste around 6.9k > critt > haste over 6.9 k > mastery. Somthing like that..
The new mastery also after what i watched and practiced on PTR is really weak because it scales so bad an you need a lot of mastery for it to really matter. They should make it so you need less mastery for each new % for a chance for a extra tigeyere brew.
I also think that monk need a way to do more dps on the pull like start with 10/15 tigerye brew!
