Mugosbomba

Hi Ashin, Thanks for your reply to my app. I will gladly take time to answer every question for you. In order to answer your question about Cata, I have to go back to the reasons why I stopped playing with Shadow Templars back in Wrath as I stated in my app earlier I had some real life issues and I'd like to expand on them. The reason I left Shadow Templars in T8 was because at the time - I was playing so much we were a 4 night a week guild, 16hours a week - that it became a personal problem. Yes, I love raiding as I pointed out, the danger, the fantasy and the challenges but at the time I started making WoW a priority over my real life friends and paid the price for it. My reaction to these losses was to change how much time I was putting into Warcraft, I was younger then and fascinated with the game. As such after Shadow Templars, I decided not to join a raiding guild in fear of a repeat performance; and that's why in Cata I did PuGs and LFR when it became available in the Deathwing Raid. It allowed me to continue to play Warcraft but not on such a level of commitment. I was able to jump into some Heroic Blackwing as shown by my Achievements, but I defiantly was not raiding on a heroic level then and a day-to-day basis. Now I've had time to reflect on my past misdoings as my transgressions are long been internally processed and forgiven by myself. I've had a many positive life changes, my personal life and my career are stable and I have a great understanding how to prioritize my time and what gets priority. I left Malfurion after leaving Whitney, simply because it was a very low population server and I like servers that have a decent population, I didn't see any other raid guild that I was interested in applying too, so I went back to where I came from, Blackrock as it is a High population server. I could have gone to Mal'ganis or Illidan for the same reasons. When I returned to Blackrock, I joined a leveling guild called "iBad" which essentially was an acceptance of some random guild spammer with level 25 bonus skills. I wanted to continue doing dailies and complete reputation gains and so I've been a part of that guild since I returned. This is a leveling guild; I've never seen anyone talk in it or group up to do any sort of content together. You are a great investigator Ashin, and I applaud you for finding those logs. It's hard to recall that night, but from what the logs says - It appears that from this log: http://www.worldoflo...sses&boss=60400 that I died to sparks 3 times, of the 8 attempts and other 5 times from a combination of Emperors Rage (Add) or one of the Bosses themselves or their abilities (Devastating Arc). On that evening, the chaotic nature of the tanks raids placement of the mobs, and the controlling of where the sparks spawn (I remember that they appear after you kill a mob) and were killed was affecting me. My DPS numbers I will point out that these 8 attempts were very short, and I was trying to put my priority of learning how the sparks functioned from 2 perspectives before bearing down the DPS numbers. The first was "How large are their hit boxes" asking myself, when can you jump? When you can walk into them? How long will it take for them to land? I remember asking myself these questions because they float in the air when they first form. The second was how long can I deterrence them for and how long do I need to deterrence them for? I think this was the first encounter I had ever been in that I needed to jump and deterrence together in order to perform my duties and I was being affected by it. In short, this night was very much a learning process for me and my DPS was lackluster for it. Now, when I look at the log for Survivability for everyone as a group, I feel that it backs up my claim that everyone was off that night. I don't believe that I did any worse any anyone else. As I've had time to reflect on the situation in communication with you today, I understand that I may have not made the best choices that night on these attempts. Since leaving I haven't had any further attempts on heroic will since then to make any adjustments. I now feel that if I had some more opportunities on this encounter, that I would be able to play a lot better and my DPS numbers today in that encounter will be much better. I have been practicing my deterrence jumping today and I feel more comfortable with it. I also will say that my gear level has significantly increased since December - I am mentioning it as a factor, but not the primary factor that night I was working on Will.

Hi Noesis, Thank you for your reply, glad I was able to provide some humor in my application. I do not recall anything being rocky before hand, in fact things were going great. I was assisting in the progression of the guild while I was there, helping them down after a hard fought effort heroic Garalon for the first time, I was receiving gear like any other raider and was being appluded for being a great hunter, something they were missing. I also recall not being vocal on vent for the first month that I was in the guild. I try to take a stance that I am new and I should try to establish relationships with the people I'm just meeting and try to keep it causual for the first while that I'm there... I'm new and all.. and I have no intention to step on toes or anything, i don't want to say anything that would offend anyone, as I don't really know anyone yet. Tread Lightly! I understand it's hard to take my words as statement of fact but I am not a guild jumper and I willing to stay put as long as I do my job, respect everynoe around me and I can be respected too. I just felt that the things that were being said on vent were things that I could not continue to be apart of with those people. I really formost want to come home after work to play with a great group of people who I can hang out with and make friendships with, community! It sucks of what did occur...but I'm being completely open here with you as I apply - I could have omitted this information but there's nothing good in that either.. My intentions today are very good, as I can say as I have spent the last many hours making sure that I applied with a good impression and that is all I think I can do. I love this game and would appreciate nothing more then to get back into raiding at a fun, and progressive level and your guld having experience 15/16H is a chance to team with a very great team, is not something I would want to just run away from. Thank you,

Good Afternoon South of Heaven! Why I came to your little corner of the internet..... I recieved a mail letter in my in-box on blackrock this morning and wanted to apply, this was sent by "Sohcontact". Just a little about me.... Before I go into what I can offer you as a WoW player, I'll happily introduce myself to you. I know that you have a small nit guild and are looking for people who have a lot of offer than just someone who can help you take down pixels and share fart jokes on vent. I am a 31 year old Microsoft Systems Engineer & IT Professional from Phoenix, Arizona working with the State of Arizona for the Department of Education, each day my work impacts many other employees whom have a direct impact on the educational quality of our state. From my desk my job is to protect our network from security vulnerabilities and provide IT services to our agency customers. I spend my days navigating through service requests and implementing security practices to protect the employees and services we offer to our constinuents. At home I live with my girlfriend of two years who is my ally and my rock for which I stand on, figuratilivly. For things that I enjoy for fun that are not warcraft related I'm outgoing and adventurous. Since moving to phoenix about 3 years ago, I have explored the Grand Canyon multiple times. Once down to a location called Plateau Point and other called Havasupi Falls. These trips require a great deal of physical strength as they require hikes of upwards of 20mi RT. I also run a large young professionals' social meetup group in the area, consisting of about 2,400 members - I organize free events for people between the ages of 21-39, we do all sorts of different activies on a weekly basis. I built this group when I first moved back to phoenix in effort to meet new people. I believe that these real life qualities that I provide on a daily basis, from work to leading a social group will extend into joining your guild. My Passion for WoW.... I have been playing World of Warcraft since 2007 when Burning Crusade was the present expansion pack. When I first started out I had no idea what an MMO was or what all the hoopla about WoW was all about. I decided to give it a shot because a roomate of mine would play it on a nightly basis. I was at first one of those people who was like I'll never play this game... blah blah but I soon gave into it. as I had the opportunity when a few of people whom I worked with wanted to group up after work each night and play together. The first aww inspiring moment of warcraft for me was just looking at the Map at being a level 1 hunter and seeing how massive Azeroth was... not having any idea that eventually i'd get a mount to ride - I was like... SHIT! I need to walk everywhere? This is a biggest game I've ever seen from both a tech perspective and a map sizing perspective. (I had played other shooter games before, like CoD and Battlefield). Stepping back a bit to when I first created "Mugosbomba" I realized I wanted to be a hunter, not because of two reasons. the first was being able to be a sniper of sorts and the second was that I also got to have a pet that I would have to care for at the time. (This goes back to when you had to keep your hunter pet happy, so that it would do 125% damage). I felt like this was the best fit for me. I didn't really understand how much fun the game would be until grouping with 3 people from my job at the time (I was a Video Game Developer specializing in Test) doing dungeon runs in Hellfire Citadel I realized how much fun WoW was but it was not until I stepped foot in to Gruul's Lair did I understand the magnifiicent feat of 24 other people trying to destroy a baddie. Ever since that, I've been a raider through and through. As a Raider in your guild I will... I will respect the members of the guild who have been here before me. Every great team is made up of Leaders, Veterans and Newbies. I clearly understand that my incoming role is the FNG and I will provide my utmost respect to those members who have put their hard work ethic into each night they play. At present I do not have any external commitments that would not permit me from playing and always being on time and never hold up your raid doing random silly AFK ninja strikes. I don't have to walk my dog during raid, or go to the super market to get a pack of smokes. As I said earlier I've been playinjg since 2007 and I understand the commitment that it takes to be a raider in a mature guild. I have been in many guilds which I will take you through and I have heard all the lame excuses during raids. As a Hunter I will... Try my best to not stand in fire..keep aspect of the pack off and keep my pet on passive! I have been playing a hunter sicne the beginning as I stated earlier and I have been through all the changes that we have gone through since BC. I remember having an I-WIN button and mana as my resource. Where I've sat down and put my feet up.... BC My first organized guild that i Joined was simply titled "Mage" was my first enterance in a nightly raiding guild. I was able to accomplish great things with them such as Obtaining my Hand of Adal title for clearing all of SerpentShrine, Tempest Keep & Black Temple. I stayed around until Sunwell came out as I had lost a previous job which came to an end. Wrath I returned in wrath to work with a guild in T7 and T8, called "Shadow Templars". We were 2nd on our realm, Deathwing-US all the way through Ulduar clearing all normal and many hard modes content that debuted in Ulduar. Unfortuantely again I had some work and real life issues to sort out and I was forced to take a break from the game. Cata In Cata I never joined an official raiding guild. I spent the entire expansion pack forming PuGs and assisting other guilds when they needed a dps player in trade. I think my progressional given my limited non-guilded nature was pretty good. LFR was a great addition at the end of expansion. MoP The first tier of MoP, I joined a guild called "I did it for whitney" and I was able to down all normal modes and 8 heroics. I was only with their guild for about a month because I gquit one evening when I was being called out as a scapegoat for the raid as a whole playing poorly on attempts on Heroic Will of the Emporer. I was given assignments to absorb sparks as instructed by the raid leader. We had only been working on this for a few hours but the raid leader got more and more frustrated as the night when on. Eventually he cracked and got on vent and called me out for wrecking the raid and started yelling at everyone. I was embarrased and insulted as I honestly was doing as I was asked; we just as a team were not playing well. I was the newest person in the guild and he arrogantly make me the scapegoat. I pretty much got out of my chair, walked about my apartment for a little while and then make a personal decision to GQUIT only because I felt at my current age of 31 that I should not be spoken like that by anybody. About my UI, KeyBinds and Add-Ons.... My UI is always a work in progress and I am definately open to assistance from anyone who is a UI guru, it's something that I consistantly tweak to assist my vision and capability to play at my best. I keep my focus bar center stage so that I can easily and try to keep my warnings from DBM out of my center vision. You can have a peek here: I always try to re-esbalish the location of my keybinds but as of today this is how I do input: 1: Kill Shot 2: Explosive Shot 3 Arcane Shot 4. Black Arrow 5 Cobra Shot 6. Serpent Sting T. Mult-Shot 8. Rapid Fire 9. DireBeast 0. Stampede - Deterance = Tranq Shot Shift+D - Disengage G - Glaive Toss R - Murder of Crows MiddleMouse - Misdirection on Focus Target Shift+V = Mend Pet Shift+R = Toggle Trap Launcher I like to also play with mininal add-ons except those are absolutely necessary for raiding.

I do hope that the information that I have spent the last few hours preparing for this application will be enough to convince you to move forward with me as a potential raiding hunter on your team. I feel that I have the experience, dedication and abiilty to commit to the repsonsibilties of a raider that you are seeking. Thank you so much, -Mugosbomba, Blackrock-US aka Steven
