Character Name: Saetin (formerly Cirelc)
Class: Priest
Talent Spec: Discipline MS
Your age: 21
Your weekly raid availability (We raid Fri/Sat 6-10pm server + Sun 4-8 server):
Friday and Saturdays will not be a problem, however I currently work during the Sunday raid times. Should I get a formal invitation to the guild that can be changed.
What add-ons do you use (Check our Information for Raiders page to see our required mods)?
I use a variety of AOs including (but not limited to) those listed in your IfR page. The major ones are Bartender and XPerl. SS (as requested) below.
Do you have access to Vent?
Of course.
What sort of tools (calculators, builders, spreadsheets, etc.) do you use to plan your characters (if any)?
While leveling my characters I typically go with what makes sense. I have found on all my toons that my build while leveling is usually 90% accurate to what I need to raid with. Keeping in mind my own play style, I will usually consider cookie-cutter builds from wowhead, wowiki, elitistjerks, and even those from the official World of Warcraft class forums. On the DPS side I also use Rawr, although I don't much enjoy dealing damage.
List any ICC 25 achievements you have (Ideally you have none):
On my Dunemaul characters I have the basic achieve's from the first wing (Boned!, Storming the Citadel, and I've gone and made a mess.) in ICC25.
Provide the armory link to the character you are applying with:
I must forewarn you that I hit level 80 on this priest a grand total of 24 hours ago (inspect General Achieves for verification). I expect to be properly geared for LK by Friday, but most DEFINITELY by Tuesday.

What are your best in slot items for each slot from ICC 10 heroic mode (Give us your gear wishlist)?
Helm/Shoulders/Gloves/Legs -> T10 token
Neck -> Soulcleave Pendant
Back -> None
Chest -> None
Wrist -> Bracers of Dark Blessings
Main Hand -> Mag'hari Chieftains Staff
Wand -> Lana'thel's Bloody Nail
Belt -> None
Boots -> None
Ring -> Cerise Coiled Ring
Trinket -> Sliver of Pure Ice
What previous raid experience do you have?
I have raided everything on one toon or another, but only since WotLK came out have I been raiding current content on a regular basis. For WotLK I've raided ToC and ICC as current content.
What guilds have you been a member of?
Shadow Ravens (Kargath : Ally)
Valkyrie (All but forgotten, Dunemaul : Horde)
League of Saints (Dunemaul : Horde Majority of Guild left for...)
Time Lapse (Dunemaul :Horde)
Why did you leave your previous and current guilds?
I left the Ravens because I hate the Alliance.
Valkyrie's Guild Leader had a friend die IRL and quit playing for a time. When that happened the officers split the guild and some of them started their own. The rest of the guild either applied to one of the other good guilds on the server or went back to an old guild of theirs.
The guild leader of LoS and myself were tired of two of the founding members who were selfish and stupid respectively, and felt that they were entitled to not only spots in raids and being officers, but to loot as well. We handed the guild over to one of them and left, taking everybody else with us.
And I am currently a co-guild leader of <Time Lapse> although I see no future for myself on that server.
Why do you want to join Shade of Arrows (Be thorough with your answer)?
I. Love. Raiding.
And even more than that, I love downing a boss for the first time after countless attempts over multiple days.
Accordingly, I have become progressively frustrated with the lack of progression on my realm by all but few of the larger, much better established guilds. The raids that take place on that server, both weekly's such as Naxx, and ICC HM's, are largely pug's that fail miserably. There's no guild loyalty, no patience, very little competence, and LOTS of children who want everything given to them. Also because the majority of raids are indeed pugs, ninja-logging is not uncommon, and neither is a disband at the first sign of trouble.
I was delighted then to hear that my friend IRL Tyler, AKA Lavandris, was in a very successful guild that was in dire need of healers. The one toon that I'm most capable with is my discipline priest, and I decided to give you folks a try with an identical character on your server and hopefully get my KS title before the release of Cataclysm.
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):
Dwight K Schrute:
Determined.
Worker.
Intense.
Good Worker.
Hard Worker.
Terrific.
Sorry, but I've wanted to do that for a while. Anyhow, I'm a 21 year-old who got out of the Navy a year ago (now a reservist) and, when not out drinking, I'm here playing WoW and watching television. I actually GOT Lavandris to start playing back in high school and, after much protest, got him to switch to Horde!
*Aside* The only reason I was ever an Ally myself is because my brother used to play a Human Mage. The day he quit playing I was more than eager to return to the Horde. Very pro-Horde. Even have a Horde symbol tattoo on my right wrist. It goes nicely with the pink My-Little-Pony on my ass. */Aside*
I don't mind people making mistakes...once. Also a big fan of the saying, 'You can't fix stupid'
The most important thing (if you're even still reading) is that I continue to raid with a very good in-game friend of mine, who started his druid two days after I started my priest and is also 80 now. Like me he created an identical toon to his main on Dunemaul to come heal. It took us less than a month to reach level cap and we'll be properly specced, glyphed, geared, and gemmed shortly. He guild led <League of Saints> for quite some time, and recently we started a new guild with the majority of members from LoS (lots of unimportant drama bullshit there.)
That's about it. Let me know if/when we can get our trial run.
For the record, before I head into ICC Heroic with ya'll, I would like to run ToGC or ICC reg through once to get to know you as raiders and people.
