Character Name: Shroomzy


Class: Druid (Balance/bear/resto)(though i consider myself playing a boomkin in general not a druid ...)

Level: 90


(Provide us with a link to your profile in the Armory)

http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/kazzak/Shroomzy/advanced

Professions and Skill Level:
jewelcrafting and alchemy both 600

What Elixirs/Flasks/Buff food do you use in raids to boost your performance?
Flask of the Warm Sun (1320 intellect for me)/potion of the jade serpent/ mogu fish stew (300 intellect)

Describe what you think you would bring to our guild if accepted. (raiding and social aspects)
A very high skilled balance druid that is very dedicated to knowing every way to perform in the best way on each encounter. further i'm glad to help my guildies out regarding quest or anything in general that can help em improve their playstyle.


-----------------------------------
Character History
-----------------------------------
Previous Guilds: i just moved to kazzak from neptulon (server is dying)
so on kazzak : brilliance (10/16 hc t14)
on neptulon: work in progress during firelands(were rank 2 guild that died)
powerhouse also during firelands
Northrenders (first tier of cata)
and some more guilds where i was officer with some friends just for fun
Reason for Leaving: i left most guilds because they died or i was benched after i took a break from the game (usually during exam periods in highschool)
I left my last guild because i was tired of the mentality of certain players.


When did you start this character and how long have you /played?
140 days played.
I started playing in the end of burning crusade, capped in the beginning of wotlk and started raiding in ulduar. This is my first char ever made and started as nichtalf on the server darksorrow, (moved at end of wotlk to neptulon) and from day 1 played as balance and ill keep doing so because ffin love the playstyle.


What encounters and raids have you experienced in Mists of Pandaria? Please state if it was on 10man or 25man and was it normal or heroic
16/16 normal 10/16 hc on first tier. 2/12 tot normal atm.


What previous raid experience (Vanilla, TBC, WoLK, Cata) 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 90.
10/12 hc icc (lk and putricide left)
6/7 hc firelands (got stuck on raggy 4th phase and then left raiding for a while)
8/8 hc dragonsoul


What do you think YOUR responsibilities are in a raid? :
Give a original answer here, saying to buff and dps/heal/tank isn't really worth mentioning
Trying to exploit the encounters mechanics to do maximise dps while using your entire spellbook to make it easyer on tanks and healers. (slowing adds, ns healing touch players who fucked up). Making sure that i know every bit and piece of any mechanic that affects my class before i ever see the fight.


What is your Spell Rotation ? this depends on the situation. if you want me to show you every sort of encounter ill record myself creating a guide. but the general idea of burst is ... start one wrath away from lunar eclipse... prepot starfall, wrath, pop 30 sec cd. apply dots (if more targets only moonfire (or both on 2) starsurge, starfire, starfall again 3 starfires (or surges if procs) second dps macro (celestial alignment and berserking), starfire/starsurge (again depends on procs) recast dots when they are completed (during berserking) starfall when last star drops. and then just the normal rotation you can find in any decent boomkin pov kill video (check lappé, zoomkins or pacteh). I know drizzy doesn't fully agree with burst but it all depends on the trinkets.


Why have you chosen to reforge, gem and enchant the way you have? Give a brief description on why particular stats are good for your class/spec. i follow askmrrobot although i'm sceptical regarding its gemming towards t 15 gear. it will all depend on how far i'm off my second haste cap.


Also Post a UI Screen Shot (this is so we know how you see what's around you)
http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/3599/wowscrnshot031113011138.jpg
i do have bossframes but they only show in raids.
Post a World of Logs report from your past guild or a 3 minute DPS report on the training dummies:
http://www.worldoflogs.com/guilds/240522/rankings/players/ (all the boomkins are me)
i had top 150 ranks on leishi hc, garalon hc and will hc but they were a month ago. I had rank 6 garajal normal second week of mop. and several top 30 ranks on firelands hc back in the day.

*seeing this will greatly help your app, if you have issues getting these reports please speak to a guild officer in game


-----------------------------------
Technical Information
-----------------------------------

Do you have oRA3 Deadly Boss Mods and OMEN ?
(Please don't apply until you have)
I use Big wigs (i prefer it over all others)
Please list any other add ons you use to help you raid.
tell me when, tidy plates, omnicc, fortexorcist, shadowed unitframes (bossframe is awesome), bartender, gtfo, balancepowertracker. in general i have a very good ui setup after days of trial and error.
Do you have a microphone & Ventrilo installed?
Of course
Describe your skills in spoken English:
i'm belgian and i once took a test that that states that my english is good enough to teach in schools.
What's your connection & computer hardware?
in game i have 25 ms. and to be honest my laptop is rather bad being 4 years of age but good enough to raid on fair graphics. i might buy a better one in the near future
-----------------------------------
General Information
-----------------------------------

Age: 19

Country: Belgium

Why did you choose to apply to this guild in particular?
I came across your guild on wowprogress and saw you had 1 balance druid and needed hunters (my friend indiag) and the raiding hours and days fit.

Players you know / How did you come across us?
I was theorycrafting with Driizy in the shrine after 5.2 released and he seemed a nice fellow.

Alts and Level (if any): well since i recently transfered i only have my boomkin atm at lvl 90 although i plan on levelling all ranged dps and tank classes just to have the feel of em all and for professions

Are you or any of your alts currently guilded?:

Did you read our Rules & Policies?

yes
What days can you play and what hours during those days (Please let us know now so no confusion is caused if you were to be accepted)?:
(Members are required to be available for raiding at least 3/5 nights week with higher attendance preferred.) Raid days are Sun-Thur, 2000-0000 server time we do occasionally stay later if we are close to a kill. Fri & Sat are off nights but if people are online we try to do alt runs or RBG's.
Generally i shouldnt have issues making altleast 3 days a week this may vary during the year (vacations, exam periods)
Previous online gaming experience (if any): nope wow is my only mmo, although i do play lol or wolfenstein occasionally with some irl friends.

Anything else you'd like to include about yourself:
Not really, you will get to know me soon enough i'm pretty active in gchat Smile.
I do want to include something else... I have a friend who i played with since dragonsoul who also is applying to the guild (indiag - hunter) who is also a very good player.
I hope this application will suffice for you.
greetings shroomzy.

Log out with your cloak please, need to see full stats.

Also if you have Light of the cosmos heroic or essence of terror heroic they are better than relic of yulon (even if it is twice upgraded)

Also you should be reapplying your dots the moment you use CA+Berserking, not waiting for your initial dots to fall off.

Ranking on a fight doesnt mean anything fyi.

always forget the cloak xD. and no the trinket of elegon just refuses to drop for me Sad . i have an upgraded trinket from sha normal but its proc works bad with the 522 trinks proc, the amount of haste i get is just to much to handle ( i end up wasting starsurge procs simply because the dots tick to fast), the proc from the relic on other hands nearly always procs togheter with the haste procc from the talisman making it superiour. (i tested it myself and did a simulationcraft on my self and both give the same result)
Yes i know you think its better to instantly dot after ca but its not. with my haste its enough to dot twice and get into solar plus the trinket procs are both finished by the time i get to ca so its better to let them do there duration and dot afterwards again near the end of berserking so that my dots have 30 seconds of either trink procs or berserking on em. its not worth dotting a third time i might as well use it for an extra starfire. if my procs were to be longer then 20 secs (or an on use trinket) its worth redotting at start since the dots will still get benefit of this buff.

I still think its better to put up dots as soon as you pop CA+Berserking and then just as you leave CA simply because you will get incarnation buffed dots for 16 seconds which means u dont have to re apply dots when entering solar.

But apart from that gear and reforges look good only thing i have a problem with is that you have reforged from crit to hit on cloak.

GL with app.

I tested it all and imo i don't think incarnation buffed dots weigh up to one more starsurge/starfire and its stupid to dot a third time (what this requires otherwise my dots run out before eclipse) at the end of ca simply because yur dots won't have any benefit from berserking for 15 seconds... yet again the difference is minimal and it just eases up the gameplay. and incarnation for me ends usually when i hit solar anyway. (plus since we aren't rolling with natures vigil anymore dots after ca only are affected by berserking and not incarnation(since its not eclipse). you should try it yourself xD. again the difference is minimal.

Same thing on mmo champ, same thing on elitist jerks. Refresh your dots, simple as that.

Also use wrathcalcs, not that godawful website. -- Unreforge you cloak, unreforge your neck, simple as that, you gain dps.

Crit > Haste

yup and none of those sites ever look at berserking simply because they want a guide that can be used for all racials. If you redot at the end of berserking which is 6 ish seconds left on celestial alignment your dots run out at around 50 energy into solar (depends on proccs) giving them benefits from both ca and berserking (aka another dot tick). I only started doing this after i became horde (was always ally) and i end up doing more damage. if you don't believe me fine then don't do it.

Please, stop talking when you do not know the full mechanics of your class. You refresh the dots for the +dmg% along with the initial berserking. The elitist jerks forums has an extensive thread on boomkins to get the highest dmg possible, they DO take into account berserking.

anyway enough about this chatter because this is leading nowhere apparently we both have our opinions and calculations after hours at the training dummy. And yes i fucking know the full mechanics of my class(pls don't ever call me that since its totally unjustified). (ftr thanks for noticing that neck/back reforge) i already thought askmrrobot was leaning to much towards haste since 5.2 (imo its a bugg that thinks i can reach the second haste cap while i know i can't). another thing i don't know if its intended or not but why are you running with 160 int/ 160 haste instead of 160 int/ 160 crit (just asking)?

Because i swap from resto to boomkin.

And no it isn't an opinion, its fact. Its you with your "opinion" and the rest of the community telling you the opposite fact.

just did another simulation and ... well it depends on your starsurge proccs if you dot at the end of ca again and you can maintain your dots until lunar then ye redotting is the best. if you can't (like they drop of at 50 energy towards lunar) its better to just dot when they are about to run out (so 5ish secs into ca and back at 50 ish solar energy). I tested this on a dummie with only flask, food and motw... so no hero or critbuff. i guess on an opener its better to redot then since you will usually get into lunar again without losing dots and without hero just dotting when 5 secs into ca. again this heavily depends on starsurge and trinket procs (second time not opener). i guess with 10% more crit on starsurge setbonus from t15 it will become more viable to do dot at the end of ca ... again this just remains gear issua and will require adaption aslong the line our gear evolves.
Can you test it as well? before we start talking about facts on simulations in bis gear?
