Freezyfire

1. About Your character
Character Name: Freezyfire
Race: Draenei
Class: Mage
Time /played: 105days total, 67days @ lvl 80
Alts (if any) - name, level, race and class please:
Divineduty, 80, Human Pally

2. Your character's talents - what's your spec, and why?
Arcane - 57 / 3 / 11 - Most optimal dps for my mage currently

3. What aspects of your talent spec do you believe contribute directly to raid performance?
Focus Magic is a decent thing to increase base crit rating by 3%.
The Arcane tree is also the favorite for big dps with a mage at the moment.

4. Would you consider changing spec to be more useful in raids?
Yes, My seccond spec currently frost will be dropped at any time if the raid is in need of something else.
e.g. a fire mage for scorch or bigger aoe if needed.

5. What glyphs are you currently using, and what're your reasons for choosing these?
Glyph of Arcane Missles, Molten Armor and Arcane Blast. Missles and Blast are pure damage increase and Molten Armor gives me more crits.

6. Your gear profile - we're lazy, please link us to your Armory profile. Also, please make sure the gear shown on Armory is the gear you want us considering for your application - We're not interested in seeing your healer or tank's DPS gear, and vice versa.

7. List the stats you believe are core to your class and spec and why.
Spellpower, Haste and Int, also Crit is handy. Obviously HIT is important till you got the cap then it's just keeping it balanced.

I do have a frost resist set, get about 180 resist rating. It's not something i've had to use in a while.

Your Game Experience and Guild History

12. What games do you play outside of WoW, or what have you played prior to WoW?
Random games on the xbox, and prior it was just anything really. First persons, RPGs, Strategy..

13. When did you begin playing WoW, and what got you into it?
Mid 2007, My brother got me into it. After seeing him raid and play I got interested.

14. Please list the guilds you've been in since you started playing, and be as complete as possible.
When I first started (Before they went horde) I was in Six Pack cuz of my brother, After that I was in some
various guilds I dont remember the names of, Then I was in Blind faith, I started to raid there mostly then I was
in Nemesis for quite a long time. Since leaving Nemesis I went to horde mostly cuz of my brother again and had a break
from wow for about a month as well. I Was in "Geto" on horde and then a social guild "Last Resort". Till I came back to
ally cuz everyone that i've known for a while is here. Now I'm in Season Zero as it's a friends guild with alot
of people that I know in here.

15. How did you come to leave these guilds, or if you're still in one, why do you wish to leave?
Current Guid: Season Zero ... Reason: Not a 25man Raiding guild, It's very casual and thats great. But I'd like to get back into raiding.
Previous : Geto, Decided to have a rest from wow for a month and I left because I wouldn't be around anymore.
Previous : Nemesis, Guild was comming to an end, and I opted to leave before that happen. I was an officer and was kinda sad to see happen.
Previous : Blind Faith, Was a fun guild and I did all of Naxx and that with em, But ultimately I had all my mates in Nemesis. Was still with BF for a while.
Previous : Random Social Guilds.

16. What raid experience do you have? This includes Classic and BC raiding as well as what you've done in Wrath.
Before Wraith I really only leveled alts and did random things, Not really any raiding. About 3 months before it came out I had started to do Kara, Mag and Grul.
When Wraith came out, I leveled my mage to 80 within the first week, and got into Blind Faith. Where I did Naxx 10, 25 alot, Maly, OS. Then with Nemesis I did
OS 3D 25man, Ulduar, and TOC. So far with ICC I've only done the first Quater.


17. ER utilizes a loot council system, not DKP. This means that ultimately gear will be rewarded to the players who would benefit most from it, or deserve it the most as defined by a group of officers and your peers. What do you say to that?



Relating to ER

18. Why do you want to join ER?
Raiding is what I enjoy in this game, And joining a team such as ER would be great.

19. Do you know anyone in the guild that will vouch for you? If not, please list at least 3 external references.
Icymoon, Dudmeister, Slimjayrad.

20. What are your feelings about circles?
Circles are great fun, i quite often run around the one in the centre of the TOC arena.

21. Are you applying to any other guilds at present?
At this point in time no, But I am looking so I might apply to some others in the comming week if I find others that might also be able to offer what i'm looking for.



About You

22. A/S/L?
25, Male and Coffs Harbour.


23. What regular commitments do you have during your week?
Currently, ... I have Gym and things during the day, but i'm generally on by 5 - 6pm onwards.

24. Are you capped? Are you sure? Have you checked? Are you with TPG?
I'm not capped, I am sure. Yes I did check.. and no .. i'm not, Also if I do end up capped the best thing about my isp is i can buy more data. So then i'm uncapped.


25. If you answered 'no' to the TPG question in #24, who's your ISP, what's your connection, and how often do you get shaped/capped?
Internode, ADSL2+ and only been capped once so far for a total of about an hour.

I do use Vent, OR TS if thats whats needed. and yes I will participate in the convo.

28. Would you be interested in meeting your fellow guildies IRL?
Yes, I've acualyl met alot of the people i've raided with IRL. From previous guilds obviously.

29. You walk into a bar, what do you order:
a) Beer

d) Something non alchoholic


30. Favourite song and movie at the moment?
Song: too many to choose from.
Movie : Not so much a movie but latley been watching the series of Dexter.

I find the combination of your name and spec misleading. I do however approve of Dexter.

Arc mage called Freezyfire? I lol'd

Freezyfire would have to be one of the better mages i have had the privilege of raiding with in the past put his gear aside it might not be as good as what other mages have at the moment but Freezy seems to keep up with those other mages that are better geared than himself he was always top 3 DPS in Nemesis him and Slim were always sorta neck and neck on dps, you can expect very good things to come from Freezy, i for one would love to raid with him once more and see him join ER.

P.S. you forgot to answer Question 17 Freezy! :P besides that good app!

Yes, an Arcane mage called Freezyfire. I was a frostfire mage when i chose the new name.. I was going to rename my character, But I still like it.. >_>

As for Q17, errr oops.. I didn't mean to miss that.

Loot Council is no problem with me. I've allways thought of it as a better way to distribute to improve the over all raid. Not just a specific group.

And the overall raid only gets stronger with people who put the effort in. Fair.

Holy shit! Draenei mage!

As noted, your gear is a little behind, but it looks as though you have worked hard to keep up with it.... i.e. fully gemmed, enchanted, taken advantage of professions, crafted gear where applicable, and 4 pce t9. I can only see minor min/maxing changes to make, but nothing overly significant.

Spec is fine. I could offer a few minor suggestions, again, altho these are all highly debatable and ultimately come down to personal preference.

My concern is that we currently have (technically) 4 raiding mages, therefore occasionally you may be asked to benchwarm. Do you have problems with this?

I do not mind being benched at all.

I understand the mage is a rather crowded class.


Hence why i have an alt :P

But if I get subbed for someone else I wouldn't mind it at all.

You forgot to list "We Camp Noorraa" guild you were in...

^lol

Ah what a great sounding guild.

I <3 freezyfire. He's my lover.

Aside from all that he will be a great asset to the guild - Good Luck with your app.

Hey, Been a few days and I've not heard anything back about the application.

When are you likly to make a descision ?

-Thanks
Freezy

Any comment on that?

Yeah, Was a friends guild when we transfered to horde, He seemed to have a thing in for Noorraa. I was in it originally as they were the only people I knew when I started there.. Left after about a week to goto Geto. To raid mostly tho loosing that stupid guild title under my name was good.

Not a wise choice i'll admit. I hold no hard feelings for Noorraa or anyone from nemesis.

Since coming back to Alliance I acaully have since spoken to Noorraa.

I'll have a chat with you ingame tonight then if you're around. Feel free to PM Soriel when you see her online.
