Untoldbeast Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 About Me My names Matt, I work in property management. I'm 28 and addicted to raiding. Looking for a solid core, with a progression mindset and little downtime. I know 25m raiding can get chaotic, I am looking for a guild that is very focused at raid time. My WoW Profile Notable Experience From TBC -All of t4 completed -ZA completed -Realm first Karazhan (US-Skullcrusher, MT'd every boss when druid MTs "were not possible" Notable Experience From Wrath -Didn't play much WotLk, RL was busy. Notable Experience from Cata -All normal 10 man content -5/8H DS Notable Experience from Mop -6/6 H MSV -4/6 H HoF -4/4 N ToES (elite protectors) -1/12 N ToT with an incosistent group of casual raiders. What The Guild Should Expect from Me and What I Expect of the Guild DPS, Utility, Knowledge, Accountability, Consistency, Execution. Why You Would Take Interest/My Strengths -Attendance. -Preparation. -Participation: -Utility. -DPS. Things I could Improve On -Adjusting to T15 rotation (loss of 2sec base timer on dots) What I Expect from The Guild Progression and focus. And of Course, the Stuff You Came Here to Look at Armory http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/stormreaver/Untoldbeast/simple Logs Current http://www.worldoflogs.com/guilds/184889/ Guild leader is lazy and hasn't transferred usto new realm yet. We are posting on a friends logs on old server. Heroic T14 http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-759fqg91zvegn4s6/sum/damageDone/ Please note I sat for alot of the fights this night, the overall is highly incorrect. Feel free to look at any other logs around this time for my heroic T14 content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untoldbeast Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I'm not much of a socialite and I'm at work hence the short app. My skills don't translate to paper, I can prove myself much easier in a real time raid, just sayin.

Ashin Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Hi Beast, That's a pretty ferocious name. Is this your armory? http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/stormreaver/Untoldbeast/advanced For some reason your post is linking me to another applicant. Please explain your recent guild history. You just transferred with your current guild to Stormreaver but you are already looking for a new guild? What's going on there? You said that one of your strengths is utility. Please elaborate. Provide specific examples of ways in which you used your class utility to your team's benefit during T14 heroic progression. In the logs that you linked: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-759fqg91zvegn4s6/sum/damageDone/?s=102&e=561 (Rough parse for you - you died to unseen strike, we'll assume that was your team's fault, then you died to tempest storm - probably your fault? what happened?) Looking at pre-transfer epeen: http://raidbots.com/epeenbot/us/burning%20legion/untoldbeast/ (Results are not too encouraging - thoughts on this?) Looking at Feng from your logs: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-759fqg91zvegn4s6/details/0/?s=6874&e=7220 (Dot uptimes look pretty good at ~95%, 3 starfalls and 2 celestial alignments for a <6 min fight sounds about right) Looking at survivability for that night: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-759fqg91zvegn4s6/survivability/?enc=bosses (Not terrible but definitely lower than your teammates, being dragged down by that Blade Lord pull as well as early deaths on your H Spirit Kings pulls) Look forward to hearing back.

Untoldbeast Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Hi Beast, That's a pretty ferocious name. Is this your armory? http://us.battle.net...dbeast/advanced Correct For some reason your post is linking me to another applicant. Please explain your recent guild history. You just transferred with your current guild to Stormreaver but you are already looking for a new guild? What's going on there? I am originally from Shattered Halls, as is the guild I am currently with. We are a group of friends that raid casually(and most of them poorly lol). In T14 I went to Burning Legion to join HBDC for heroic progression. My orginal guildies told me at the end of 5.1 that they were going to a higher pop server and replacing a few people so I came back to try raiding with my friends. Progression has halted at 1/12 (terribad I know) and the MT had his account banned for reasons unknown to us(I'm sure he knows but he won't admit it) You said that one of your strengths is utility. Please elaborate. Provide specific examples of ways in which you used your class utility to your team's benefit during T14 heroic progression. H Stone Guards - used stampeding roar/dash for faster painting. H Feng - Respec to Ursols for add phase. H Garajal - go BEAST MODE™ on adds. H Elegon - Symbiosis lock and tank/eat adds H Will Entangling roots right add every time. Obviously tranq/remove corruption when needed etc. In the logs that you linked: http://www.worldoflo...ne/?s=102&e=561 (Rough parse for you - you died to unseen strike, we'll assume that was your team's fault, then you died to tempest storm - probably your fault? what happened?) I remember this night well unfortuantely. I ate the unseen strike solo b/c the raid was scattered and it was early so we just brezzed. Tempest Storm was my fault, I ran into a tornado that bounced me back into it. dummy move I know. Looking at pre-transfer epeen: http://raidbots.com/...on/untoldbeast/ (Results are not too encouraging - thoughts on this?) Like I said above I was raiding casually with friends before I switched servers so the first 2 weeks I was getting used to heroic mechanics and I was heavily undergeared. On most fights you can see the dps incline as time went on. In some cases logs remained low because my utility was more important to the raid than my low dps (compared to the rest of the group already in pretty much full heroic gear) Looking at Feng from your logs: http://www.worldoflo.../?s=6874&e=7220 (Dot uptimes look pretty good at ~95%, 3 starfalls and 2 celestial alignments for a <6 min fight sounds about right) This is actually shocking to me, my opener has 3 starfalls in the first 44 seconds. understandable that some miss due to Epicenter but looking at that log a total of 66 stars fell. So there were actually 4 casts with some overlap in my opener. I'm still astounded how this is possible, in a 6 min fight I should avg about 8-10 starfalls depending on incarnation vs SotF. Looking at survivability for that night: http://www.worldoflo...ity/?enc=bosses (Not terrible but definitely lower than your teammates, being dragged down by that Blade Lord pull as well as early deaths on your H Spirit Kings pulls) Blade Lord explained above. Garajal killed by boss melee. Spirit Kings#1 pinned down > volley. DPS didn't break me out. Spirit Kings #2 Tank turned boss before annihilate, I probably still could have gotten clear but didn't expect it. Spirit Kings #3 Boss melee. 6 deaths, 2 that I could have avoided.. Look forward to hearing back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untoldbeast Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 -snip- Ashin too fast! What are your thoughts on transmog as a boomkin? ...when we get our model upgrade in 5.0, oops I mean 5.1, oops I mean 5.2, oops I mean STOP LYING TO ME BLIZZARD. When we get it I'll let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 They'd actually said we would get the model upgrade in Cataclysm. Forgot that starfall auto resets on lunar now (I haven't moonkin'd since T12). So yeah, why you no hit starfall button? =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulgshift Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Howdy Untold -- I think Ashin asked a lot of pertinent questions relating to specific logs. I do have concerns since you put a tantamount importance to the utility that boomkins bring. For instance, in a night full of raiding, you cast Stampeding Roar exactly once (http://www.worldoflo...s/0/?enc=bosses). When do you think the use of S.R. is appropriate? Do you wait for people to call out specifically for you to use it, do you use it proactively to get into position, do you use it for personal use sometimes? In that same log, you also cast Tranquility exactly once. Is this merely because it was old content? In a more recent night of raiding (Horridan wipes, it looks like), you did not cast Stampeding Roar once and used Tranquility twice for the entire night. Again, when do you see most fit to use these abilities, which are arguably the biggest source of our utility? I do see that you used Solar Beam a bit towards the end of the night on Horridan, which is good to see. Do you feel like you could have gotten more use out of it? Given what you stated about your opener, it appears as though you're doing the standard boomkin opener. Would there ever be a time you deviate from that? Specifically looking at fights where burst DPS is perhaps not needed or even harmful for the first few minutes (recent examples of this may be Amber Shaper or Primordius). Also, Ashin was indeed mistaken on the one Feng parse. You did indeed use Starfall 8 times, which is exactly in line with where it should be. (Edit: As seen here: http://www.worldoflo.../?s=6874&e=7220 under Buffs Cast) Let's also talk about Glyphs/Talents. I see that you currently have Entangling Roots glyphed. When do you change out your glyphs? Any specific ones you would want to trade in its place? In addition, I see that you're using HoTW over Nature's Vigil, at least currently. Can you discuss when you would switch between the two? Any specific fights where you think NT may be preferable? Thanks for applying. Good luck!
