You
Who are you? Where are you from? How old are you? What kind of work do you do? What's your situation at home like?
I'm Daniel, some people from way back in Vanilla might remember me as Thierry. A Gnome Mage who I used to raid with. I'm 18 years of age, and still in college. My situation at home is laid back, playing WoW, chilling, chatting, playing football etc :).
What kind of internet connection do you have?
Fibrewire ofc!
What are the core specs of your computer?
E8500, P5QPro, Ati 5870, 4 gigs of ram!
How long have you been playing computer games and what kind?
I've been playing computer games for as long as I can remember actually. WoW in general since right after the release.
What kind of raiding experience do you have?
Well, with Silver Oak Guardians I don't really remember anymore how far we've gotten. Was it AQ40? All I know is that I've cleared everything up to Huhuran with Righteous on my mage. But it's been so long, my memory has lost me :blink:.
Also raided with Genesis on my Rogue, Pokerface. Think I've cleared up to Leotheras?
I started a Death Knight on Kor'gall, the realm where my mates used to play, as soon as Wotlk launched. Dinged 80 as the 2nd DK there, and joined Hostile. A guild mainly orientated around PvP. Wasn't my cup of tea, so I applied for Ronin. The number 1 guild on Kor'gall in the start of Wotlk. Cleared everything, including ToTGC 25 5/5. Sadly I haven't been able to get a Tribute to Immortality on 25 man, due to RNG kicking us in the crotch.
What other guilds have you been in and why did you decide or were forced to move on?
Silver Oak Guardians - Righteous - Genesis - Hostile - Ronin
Do you actively play any alts that we could find you in in case we need to contact you?
Just migrated, so nope :).
What are your plans for the game? In what way would you like others to know you? Tell us about your personality, and why you enjoy the game.
I've stuggled for a long time, thinking and thinking about what to do. Talked things over with my brother, you might remember him as Whisperer. He's playing his rogue on Aszune now, Gnowai. I felt like I needed a break, away from raiding, away from Kor'gall, back to my old home. Back to where I've gotten the best memories in all these years in World of Warcraft.
My main focus now is to prepare my DK as good as possible for Cataclysm. I don't really care about ICC, or Wotlk raids in general anymore. I still enjoy playing my class, pushing it to the max, but I don't feel like doing that anymore in the wotlk raid enviroments.
Some people from the old skool gang might remember me as a pretty straight-forward, cheered up guy. Haven't changed much :). I still enjoy the little things in WoW the most, getting a first kill, a first special mount, a special achievement. Things that make me feel satisfied and happy :).
Name one thing you don't like about WoW in its current state.
Casualty. Even though I'm actually going casual myself, kinda, I still feel like Wotlk has brought casual gaming to a point it shouldn't have been at. ToC is like a loot pinata, where you bunch 5 *******s which drop some new epix for you. Hate it, a main reason that I've quitted raiding.
Your character
Please link to your armory profile.
Not really relevant. And not working yet.
Why did you decide to play this class?
I like this question. I've decided to play a Death Knight, not cause it used to be overpowered, but because the whole way it fights really attracted me. Not having to deal with mana is a nice way of controlling fights. The rune system is perfect imo. I also love the whole starting area of DK's, it's really spooky, love it!
This guild
What do you look for in a guild?
Well, since I'm not applying for a raidspot, I'll give a different answer then needed probably. I seek home, pleasure, old friends, people who helped me achieve things I couldn't think were possible. Simply, experiencing the best time in WoW again.
''Dead Men Raiding'' - What comes to mind when you see that guild name?
Silver Oak Guardians.
Annoying questions
A guildie says something you find offensive, what do you do? Drop my trousers and /moon. :norty:
Cake or Pie? Both!
Some last words, I'd like to say. If you lack a DK, and I'm online, you could always ask me to help out. I have no idea if you're still doing Ulduar hardmodes, but I can always supply some tactics, pro dps or a laugh if needed :).
Thanks for reading.
