How long have you been playing computer games and what kind?
I've played all sorts of games from consoles games like CoD and Halo to PC based games like Counter-strike, WOW, FFXI, Ragnarok etc. I have all the consoles and handhelds that are currently out now like the Xbox 360, ps3, wii, psp and nds.

What kind of raiding experience do you have?
I've started playing since the beta release of WoW, ever since the game came out basically. I've raided from UBRS to Naxx to Mount Hyjal and some bosses in BT. In WoLK iv raided all pre-ulduar raids and a few experience in ulduar 10 and 25 man. I wouldn't say I'm super greatly experienced but I have been on the front line for a very long time and I know what it takes to raid and what it's like to fail countless times before getting it right.

What other guilds have you been in and why did you decide or were forced to move on?
I have been in several guilds, most disbanded or moved servers. At the moment I'm in a social guild with some in-game and Rl friends. 'Show Your Allegience'.


Do you actively play any alts that we could find you in in case we need to contact you? Names are: Noctiss, Ohagi and Lenn.

If you are a cross-server applicant, name someone from your home server that can vouch for you.
What are your plans for the game?
I've always been on Azsune.

In what way would you like others to know you? Tell us about your personality, and why you enjoy the game. Name one thing you don't like about WoW in its current state.
I'M a very social guy and I've always been addicted to gaming and i have been playing MMO's for as long as I can remember but WoW is what really got me hooked up and I love every moment of it.

If your armory does not show your intended spec then please make a template of it and link it.

Why did you decide to play this class?
I've always chosen a warrior class in MMo's and rpg's it's kind of like a trend.

What do you think your class' role is in raid content?
DPS + tank when needed.

Comment on your build. Why did you choose it? What do you think of other builds of your class? Why didn't you choose one of those? (important question)
Ever since patch 3.0.1 Arms spec has been slightly better in terms of DPS than fury build especially for under geared people like myself. It does not produce as much sustained DPS as a pure DW fury warrior with good gear, however it provides a reasonably predictable aggro management in raids and damage without being so gear dependent like the fury build. Plus With the hybrid specs with very specific equipment restraints, 31 Arms / 20 Fury is the king of all PvE and PvP builds as Mortal Strike inhibits healing and predictable burst DPS allows a warrior to frontload DPS as needed.


This guild

What do you look for in a guild? ''Dead Men Raiding'' - What comes to mind when you see that guild name? There are other guilds on the server, why did you apply to us?
'Dead Men Raiding' has the perfect raiding times for me and is a guild that has a good reputation on Aszune. Also you guys have a serious attitude towards raiding which is something I can relate myself to.

Who do you know in Dead Men Raiding? How do you know them?
I don't think i know anyone from Dead Men Raiding.

Have you read our 'what we look for' and 'philosophy' posts? What do you think of them?
Yes, great philosophy and i couldn't agree more with it.

Annoying questions

A guildie says something you find offensive, what do you do?
Take it as a joke and leave it, if the problem still occurs have a friendly chat to see what the problem is, and hopefully it would have been sorted out.

Cake or Pie? hmm, definitely cake...
