The Enigma Order

PERSONAL INFORMATION

Age: 23
Gender: Male
Country: Sweden
Occupation: Currently unemployed but I am probably going to start studying in October. This would not affect my ability to attend raids.

How good is your English:
My written English is 9/10.
I would rate my spoken English slightly lower because of my accent due to English not being my mother tongue.

Anything else about you, the person, we might be interested in:
Not that I can think of at the moment, however I will answer (almost) any questions you have.

CHARACTER INFORMATION

Nickame: Bereadytojab
Armory Link: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/r … b/advanced
Mainspec: Enhancement
Offspec: Elemental
Professions: Herbalism and Inscription.

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 gemmed and reforged to perfection.

Do you get enough valor on a weekly basis to upgrade your gear as much as possible?
Yes, I cap my valor every week.

What do you consider the most significant pros and cons of your class/spec in the current state of affairs:
Pros:
Stormlash Totem
Very strong burst
Scales well
Off heals (Ancestral Guidance or HTT + Healing Rain and HST)
Good single target damage

Cons:
Weak burst AOE
No real "oh shit button" like Ice block / Cloak of Shadows / Dispersion


Tell us about your alts (armory links included), how good are you with them:

I like to think I am pretty good at Discipline.


YOUR PERFORMANCE

Please provide a WoL log presenting your awesomeness. In absence of logs, post screenshots of recount/skada from an encounter of the current tier.
Without this, you will most likely be rejected.

I could only find one report and that is for progress on Iron Qon heroic (no kill).

Raiding Experience (be thourough here, the more information you give us, the better; both pre-MoP and present progress is interesting for us; tell us about previous guilds):

I started raiding in TBC as a Warlock, clearing Karazhan, Gruul's Lair and Magtheridon's Lair.

After that I applied for a top 5 guild on the server and killed Lady Vashj and Kael'thas server 2nd.
Continued playing with same guild up to Archimonde in Mount Hyjal and Mother Sharaz in Black Temple.

I then stopped playing because of my computer being bad, we're talking 0.4 FPS on Hyjal trash and ~10 FPS on bosses (I was still top 3 on damage).

Started playing on a new account in WoTLK and raided as a Warrior and Hunter.

Got an early kill on Sartharion + 3 and cleared all Ulduar hardmodes + Algalon.
Was 1% from Grand Crusader in ToGC and did all ICC hardmodes + Bane of the Fallen King.


In Cataclysm I stopped playing early on after getting pissed off at 45 minute 2v2 games.



Started playing again 20/02/2013 and got to level 90 just about when ToT was released.

So far I have killed 12/12 in normal and Jin'Rokh, Horridon and Ji-Kun on heroic, also gotten Iron Qon to the lase phase.


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.
~95%

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):
None.

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):
I understand the mechanics and I am a good player in general.
This does not only apply for World of Warcraft, I have been decent at all games I have spent time on.

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):

Back in the day I used to thoroughly read the tactics on Bosskillers.com.
Now I watch kill videos of the encounters I could possibly face during that raiding session and try to look for Enhancement discussions for those fights aswell.

GUILD RELATED

Why are you applying to The Enigma Order, what made you choose us, when and where did you first hear about us:

I am applying because the most fun I had playing this game was in TBC as a 25 man guild.

I choose you because I want to play in a 25 man guild with decent progress.

I found out about you on Wowprogress.com, the first time was probably when I first checked the server in MoP.

What do you expect from us, as a guild:
Good, reliable players and a nice raiding environment.

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):
I understand and accept the rules.

When unsure about any aspect of the game, be that tactics, class specific assignments, how do you proceed:
I sort it out.

Why do you play WoW, what are your objectives, why commit more than 10 hours a week to a computer game:

I started playing Runescape when I was ~10 years old and have been playing online games ever since.

The main reason I play WoW is to raid and my objective is to kill all available content while it is current.
I commit time to this game because I enjoy playing it.


Is there anything else you would like to include that may assist your application.
I can't think of anything.

HARDWARE

Please post Speed Test results. Run it from your place to Frankfurt, Germany.



Give us a brief specification of your computer - enough to assure it can handle 25 man raids.
I play with "high" settings at 30+ FPS in raids.

Do you have a working microphone and are you able to connect to TS3 servers?
I have a microphone and can be vocal.

Should you be accepted, you will be asked to provide your cellphone number to the leading team. This is for the sake of on-going coordination, your number will not be made public nor used for anything not related to the game. Is this ok?
That is fine.
