List the days you are raid available (Sun-Thurs 8-12pm EST):  All days will work perfectly.

What add-ons do you rely on most? Definitely Weak Auras 2 and Deadly Boss Mods, due to the fact that both give a countdown for certain things, which I find to be extremely important. I do like Malkorok helper just because it makes the fight that much easier

What resources do you use to keep up to date on how to play your class? WoW forums/ Icy Veins/ Noxxic / Youtube / Patch Notes / Other Mages (Turkeyburger)

What previous raid experience do you have?
None

What guilds have you been a member of and why are you leaving?
Zero Faith - Extremely late raid nights, a lot of drinking thus halting progression
BSG - Merged Guilds
Epic Winning - Merged guilds with the above and went 1/14H
Well Played at the time (3 months ago) The raid times were changed

Why do you want to join Shade of Arrows (Be thorough with your answer)?
From discussing with Tenebrus for a little while you guys seem like a tight nit group of people who actually want to get stuff downed, not to mention I've always watched those huge 25 vs 25 man heroic raiding streams that blizzard does and I want to be a part of that one day. I believe that given the right group of players that take progress as seriously as I do I could get there one day. That's the hope anyway, and while this may sound cocky I find myself covering for other raiders responsibilities and I always catch myself thinking "Why am I so far ahead of everyone here in terms of knowledge and damage and execution?"

How did you find us (Friend,Forum,Trade Chat,Officer, etc.)(specify)?
Tenebrus and the forums!
Are you competitive by nature? If so, who do you compete against (Yourself or others? Specifiy other)? Very competitive, both with myself and others, when I say myself I mean that when I go look at epeenbot and see that I did 300,000 dps on a fight last week, I want myself to be at 310k this week. I will do everything in my power to get to that point. When it comes to others I have never wanted to get beaten by anyone, be it Etherealwisp (Hunter) Kanja (Shaman) or most of all other Arcane mages. My biggest competition that I will one day beat out is Turkeyburger, Midwinter's #1 mage and also a top US guild and currently is #1 Sim dps on Sargeras, I'm #22 and I was around 90th last week. I hate losing to others, the way I see it is even If I have less gear I can still do better than the person with better gear does as long as I execute better.

Tell us about yourself to help us determine if you would be a good fit here (The more you put here, the better it looks): Well first off all through High School I was an active guy, 2 sport athlete (Track and Football) always stemmed a lot of competition for me from very early on. I do really love this game, I get on more than just raid days and do lots of different things, from Tmog runs to Achievements and professions, I love PvP it was the very first thing I did in this game. I love laughing and being able to make other people laugh to lighten the mood and I overall just like to be in good atmospheres. My favorite music artist is probably going to go to E-Dubble, if you've never heard him you should really check him out, very unknown but very very good. That's about it.

Bonus question >>Do you attend couple's cross-stitching? Confused on this, isn't that a pattern? Not something you go to haha?

Hey we are going to review your app and get back to you soon

Bonus question >>Do you attend couple's cross-stitching? Confused on this, isn't that a pattern? Not something you go to haha?


It's not a pattern. It's a coming together of couples to do cross stitch on a week by week basis. It is a perfectly legitimate hobby.

Thank you for the fast replies, and my apologies Yttrius, I now understand that it is a legitimate thing.

It's not legitimate at all, it's for men whose balls are contained in their wife's purse.

Can i ask what does your schedule look like for September through April next year? The expansion is most likely going to land right in the middle of school like it normally does. Are you going to be able to maintain attendance?

How well versed are you in the other two specs? The reason I ask is cause there are a few fights every tier that, as arcane, you almost handicap yourself by the mobility requirement (H siege and H Klaxxi come to mind as examples). Granted, this late in the tier it's not too much of an issue, but if everyone was 20ilvls lower those fights would be absolute hell as arcane compared to fire/frost and eDPS would undoubtedly be higher as either of those.

Also, are you locked out this week?

My schedule for september through april of next year actually looks very clean, the times tenebrus listed on the forums would work great, I've nearly never been busy those times in my life. Also don't plan to be, as for how well versed I am in the other specs, I have played both numerous times, and was very very close to just completely going fire a month ago, but thought more crit would be a better thing to have until swapping to it, regardless I was able to rank on a few normal/lfr fights on it. Unfortunately I am locked this week, went 10/14H and had a horrible 14 wipe session on H spoils last night, which I ended up going frost for in full mastery gems/reforge just because arcane was messing me up a lot for it for some reason.

Overall no my availability will not change
Yes I am well versed in the specs
Yes I am locked out

My frost spec is basically full mastery but I believe I can do that because of being troll. Let's say we trial you and you pass but for some reason we we did not want to carry multiple mages would you be willing to switch your main to another class or is it mage or nothing?

I would have no problem with changing my main to another class, I have good experience on Ret Paladins, Warlocks, Rogues to a degree, warriors and shamans. But any class would be do-able

Nall#1649 would like to talk to you.

Got it, I'll add him on real I'd today around 1:45 PST
