Armory: eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/kazzak/Sixxy/simple
Which team are you applying for: The "10-man" advertised in trade chat.
How long have you played WoW: All together, 7 years. On this new battle-net account - 3 months.
How long have you played your class: 5 years.
How long have you played your current spec: 5 years.
If asked, would you change your spec: Yes.
Why did you choose the glyphs you use: First of all, the "Spirit Walk" glyph I find almost essential for my playing style. As a melee it is important to have lots of movement speed for obvious reasons. The "Fire Nova" glyph provides great AoE damage control, adds spawn on most encounters in SoO - I benefit mostly off Garrosh with this glyph I find. Glyph of Feral Spirit, is completely preferential depending mostly on playing style again, I find its useful stacked with Ancestral Guidance / Healing Stream Totem along with an instant Healing Rain. I can push 40k HPS in your average encounter with Enhancement. I can understand this may not be needed, but it does NOT effect my DPS rotation.
Minor Glyphs - Earth Shrine (Orgrimmar Teleport).
- Lakestrider (Water-walking on instant Ghost Wolf).
- Spirit Raptors (Just because they look bad-ass).
Why did you choose the talents you use: Really they are the best for Enhancement Shamans currently, maybe switch Earthgrab Totem with Windwalk for breaking movement impairing effects, but... bahh it never really needs to be used in my opinion with my experience with end-game. Earthgrab provides a decent add control, Immerseus HC for example on most "add phases".
Why did you reforge the way you did: Closest to 7.50% Hit and Expertise of course. Mastery for the increased elements damage (primary stat). Haste (Secondary). Critical Strike is almost redundant.
Why did you gem the way you did: Well I have prioritized Expertise & Mastery gems. This is due to the overwhelming mastery and haste BiS items I no longer have to reforge thus, provided me with a lot more Mastery based on my Item Level. Yellow gems - Mastery. Green gems - Hit & Mastery. Red gems - Agility.
Why did you choose the professions you have: Engineering is fun, and also very useful in Raids and in general for the game. Goblin Glider can be used to switch towers on Galakras for example. Frag belt for the increased movement speed once again - stacked with Spirit Walk, provides the Usain Bolt sprints. And ofcourse, the Synapse Springs for the gloves. Will not turn down 1920 Agility for 10 seconds every minute of an encounter. Its like an extra trinket proc every minute.
If you're benched for a fight, is this okay with you: Sure.
Can you make all our raid days: Yes.
Any notable guilds you have been a part of: Statler and Waldorf (Current) Awesome group, know lots IRL. We cleared SoO at the start of the patch, then 4 bosses on HC, and then people had public holidays, responsibilities and are still as of yet to come back to the game. I am also told via Facebook, that we shall be no longer. I am unhappy about this, I have Pugged and used Openraid. This has shown not to be as bad as expected however, I wish to seek HC progression again.
Do you have a mic: Yes
Do you talk during fights (say if you have a DoT/other mechanic we need to be aware of): Of course.
We often joke with each other, so the tone might sound harsh if we wipe, is this okay with you: Yep.
Do you click your abilities, or do you have them keybound: I use the Razor Naga mouse, most of the rotation is bound to the mouse. The rest are on the keyboard, but its very minimal and broken down with macros and major raid CDs.
When are you usually online: I work 9-5 like most people, normally online between 18:00-24:00 most nights of the week. Weekends I power-game on alts / do old-school content. But I will be free whenever you need me for external raids other than Seige. ICC/BT/AQ etc...
On Joining Us
Why do you want to join us: Your current progress is 12/14HC, I wish to build a balance with the guild to achieve 14/14HC before the new expansion, or even nerfs with SoO in general. With the disband of my guild, I NEED to get these bosses down, personal goal. I wish to join the atmosphere, experience new players, meet new people - its all part of the fun. I believe this guild has the capability of satisfying my needs.
How can we benefit from having you: I am a nice guy, a provider to the guild. Loyal and consistent with raid times as such. Willing to help others and willing to accept any criticism when spotted. We all make mistakes, no matter how good we become, but I strive to play to the best of my ability 100% of the time in raids.
Apart from Enhancement Shamans at the top of the "burst chart" (along with affliction locks on certain fights).. They provide great raid cool downs, helping the healers when I can, the odd healing surge proc, or healing rain when stacked. I have healing macros bound to both Enh/Ele specs with Ancestral to pop when times are shifty.
My experience in the game is considerably high in general. This will provide maybe some useful or helpful info to some people.
Do you know anyone in the guild: I don't.
Anything you wish to ask us: Glad you asked
1. What is the average age-range in the roster?
2. Will the fact my armory and achievement points have an effect on my application? e.g no confirmed HC kills, 3.8k achievement points?
3. And your probably wondering what happened to my previous account. Well - its still live on armory. Feel free to armory "Phryo" (Mage) and "Shankers" (Rogue). These were my old mains, but due to some minor in-game issues with these characters, I just wanted to start a fresh . Will the above also be a problem?
4. I notice the rap artist Ice-Cube in the background, he is one of my favorite artists in Rap/Hip-Hop ever. Who's idea was it to call this guild the "Bandit Lounge" and support the ICEMAN? Nothing wrong, I thoroughly support him and his work!

Name: Robbie Poole
Age: 24
Country: United Kingdom
Occupation: Project Management (IT)
Other games you play: CS 1.6 / FM2014 / TFC / Halo / Street Figher 4 / Mortal Kombat (sega).
WoL (if any): None available but willing to show you in-game rotation/pot usage/CDs etc.
Screenshot of your UI: I have used the standard WoW templates throughout the adventure for around 7 years, apart from a few visual addons, nothing has really changed.
List of macros and addons you use: Skada, Omen, CombustionHelper(mage), MalkorokHelper, DBM, Atlas, TitanPanel, Nuggets/Cooldowns, Tellmewhen.
Macros - I have to many to list, but I will tell you what spells I have bound together which works for me.
Burst - Prepot/Berserking/Bloodlust(exclude when were not using on pull)/Fire Ele Totem/Unleased Elements/Spirit Raptors/Elemental Mastery/Springs.... Flameshock + Stormstrike with Ascension.
Within this - I don't pop all at once, its timed with my elemental's immolate to gain a harder tick from that, also with Bloodlust I will save Stormlash totem. I can speak in more detail in game about this. There are a few tricks with enhancements not many people worldwide know about .
I look forward to hearing from you
