Describe what you think you would bring to our guild if accepted. (raiding and social aspects)

In the aspect of raiding, I bring to you a very experienced and competent healer. I've been playing a restoration druid since day 1 in this game (Which was about 2 weeks after release for me). I pride myself on knowing every aspect of my class, including all specs. I spend a vast amount of time messing around with the smallest reforges, or how to chain abilities to give me the maximum output from my character. I'm a punctual raider, who always strives to better myself.

In the social aspect, I bring a person who is rather laid back, slightly OCD when it comes to achievements, a lover of just taking part in group activities, this being a few oldschool raids, or just sitting in vent/TS/voicecomthing having a chat with people Smile

Character History
-----------------------------------
Previous Guilds:
Forgotten Legacy
The Flaming Ruby
The Shadowstalkers
Blackrock Diving School
Midnight Storm

Reason for Leaving:
They all either stopped raiding, or disbanded.

When did you start this character and how long have you /played ?
I started this current druid about 1 month before the release of cataclysm due to a compromise of my previous account. However, the first character I made was once again a restoration druid. So I have infact been playing the class since I started playing 2 weeks after release.

33 days on my current druid.
280 on my previous druid (Prior to the release of Ulduar)

What encounters and raids have you experienced in Cataclysm? Please state if it was on 10man or 25man and was it normal or heroic

4.1
BWD = 6/6N 6/6Hc (10 man)
BoT = 4/4N 5/5Hc (10 man)
TotFW = 2/2N 2/2Hc. (10 man)

4.2
FL = 7/7N 7/7Hc (25 man)

4.3
DS = 8/8N 5/8Hc (25 man) (Currently, Warmaster on 7% and extensive exp on Spine through use of watching a friend raid)

What previous raid experience do you have on this char? Please only mention stuff you did at the time when it was a current raid, we dont need to know you can clear black temple when you are level 85.

Cleared all content when it was current, as i was a raid leader up till cataclysm.

What do you think YOUR responsibilities are in a raid? :
Give a original answer here, saying to buff and dps/heal/tank isnt really worth mentioning
Very fight dependent I'd say. If I'm on a fight where I'm required to heal, my responsibility is to be able to react quickly and precisely enough to remove debuffs from players before they can recieve any harm from them, or to remove them when it is considered safe to do.

If I'm on a fight where I'm tank or raid healing, my job is to apply the correct amount of healing to keep everyone alive, whilst not overdoing it. I pride myself on doing as much healing as possible, whilst minimizing my overhealing, as that doesn't really help out all that much.

What is your Spell Rotation ?

"Spell Rotations" per-se are a strange thing for healers. If I know there's alot of raid wide damage incoming, but we're spread out, I'll activate my harmony mastery (As if it wasn't on 100% uptime anyway...) and begin to blanket the raid with preemptive HoT's through the use of Rejuvenation/Wild Growth. If we're stacked up, I'll do the exact same, but prepare to drop an efflorescence under the highest concentration of players to maximize the healing output of it. If the damage is going to be intence on a certain player, ie, a tank. Then I'll make sure I have a triple stack of lifebloom up on them (Have it anyway for clear-casting procs *Whistles*) and keep up all other HoT's possible so that any damage they recieve, will either be topped up by the HoT's, the nourish which I'm spamming, or if the damage because slightly more intense, or indeed on a clearcast proc, I will fill with a Healing Touch or Regrowth, whichever seems more suitable at the time.

Also Post a UI Screen Shot (this is so we know how you see whats around you)
I would, but my UI basically consists of the default WoW UI, with the addition of Grid and DBM. Smile

I'm not a fan of filling my screen with addons.

And Post atleast a 3 min WWS or WMO Report on Test Dummie(Dps only)

Here's a log from Madness on LFR. Not the best example, but my current guild apparently don't keep decent logs anywhere available for viewing.

Just to add, if my application was accepted, I would transfer right away Smile

Gravecreeper · Guest

As you probably gathered this application gets my full support! I haven't raided with tessima on his druid but have had the pleasure with his Prot Warrior and can say that I always found him to have good knowledge of tactics (both general and role specific), spacial awareness and knowledge of his class. What is more he is a genuinely nice, sociable guy and spent plenty of time chatting on Mumble (and we all know I love to chat).

Oh yh! And he can put up with me which is always a bonus!

TWO THUMBS UP!!

To add to my application, regarding a few points with my gear:

The lack of epic gems: Reason for this, being that my current GM said only to gem heroic pieces with epic gems, as on this server, they are normally 3-4K+ per uncut red. Sometimes dipping down to maybe 2K. However, I'm well aware that they are alot cheaper on Kazzak, and will be fully gemming with epic gems once I transfer.

Professions: I only recently picked these professions up. I've got them to the stage where I gain benefit from them for raidng, but I'm most certainly going to max them out as soon as I can Smile

Explain Wild Growth glyph.

Tessima · Guest

That was actually a mistake on my part, completely forgot to change it back to my innervate glyph. Armory should of updated it again properly in a few moments Smile

I know you say your Ui is very basic and what not; i still want to see it. You say you have decursive. Placed where? How big? Is it blocking your view? I want to know.

Post a picture.

Tessima · Guest

This should work. Let me know if the link goes weird.

Don't believe i see a healing addon, what do u use to heal? Blizz raid frames? Any click - heal addon assigned as i don't see mouse overs either

Tessima · Guest

I use the default Blizzard frames. I've never found any kind of healing addon to be useful for me really. Though if anyone suggests I use one, I'll most certainly grab it and try them out. I just always found I heal better without things clogging up my screen. Smile

Tessima · Guest

I do have mouse overs though, which I can list if you'd like.
