C. Raiding and Character information
1. Tyroune | Prot | Warrior

4. What is your raiding experience Pre-BC? In BC? WoTLK? Specify if in a leadership role.
I start it raiding in WotLK (Naxx), the only times i have been in BC instances is for achievements points while at level 80. I turned level 80 on my first toon (Tyroune) and around a 2 months later Ulduar came out. I quickly got on my grind, put long hours of reading on forums and learned all the mechanics of a warrior tanking. I geared up and joined my first raiding guild and rapidly became the Main Tank of full Naxx clears and got the 6th Yogg kill on my server. Other content cleared OS3D, VOA, ONY, TOC and ICC normal Lich King. Currently 10/12 Hard Modes in ICC. (All of this in 25 man Raids)
5. Provide an armory link to your character and a wowhead link to your normal raiding spec.

6. You will need lots of consumables to keep up with the pace during progression raids. Do you have the will and time to put in enough effort to keep an adequate amount?
Yes, i always have plenty of flasks, Potions and Food.
7. Will you come to a progression raid having already read any available information relevant to encounters?
I do that regardless, I don't like to look stupid in front of 24 people. So I do my homework before getting into the encounter.
8. What do you think about beginning raids early and staying beyond the required raid times to down new content?
That's something I dream with, in my current guild people show up late and leave early. Most of them don't have the commitment of a raider, this is the reason why I'm looking for a new home with people that take raiding serious.
9. Post a WWS report / Wow Meter Online of a few recent raids in your guild. If your guild does not run these, post a screenshot(s) of your recount for some boss encounters. (DO NOT LEAVE THIS OUT)

Event Alert and Warrior Proc Alert - Shows me when my Sword and Board has Proc, and the Up time of my Revenge Ability.
Health Alert - Lets me know when I'm low on hp, to pop Health cookies, potions or Cool downs.
OnScreenHealth - Same as above, just an easier way to see my health to have a quicker reaction time to pop cool downs, potions or health cookies if i get low on health.
Warrior Vigilance Tracker - Handy add on, that eliminates the step of targeting a player to give them Vigilance. With and Alert when Vigilance is not placed on any target.
D. Dual Spec
1. What is your secondary spec?
My secondary spec at the moment is Prot too, with a talent build focus on multi target threat and more damage. (Glyph and Spec-ed into Cleave) For trash and Lady Death-whisper. I have ICC dps gear, but I have never DPS seriously. Most of the time I'm full time Main Tanking.
2. Are you able to play it as well as your main spec?
No, I'm not able to DPS as good as I tank.
3. Are you willing to change your main spec and/or secondary spec for guild needs?
If that's the only way to get in the guild, i would do it.
E. Professions
1. What are your 2 professions? if they are not maxed to the level of profession perks, why not?
Jewel-crafting - Max Out, this is the profession that i make the gold with. Plus it has 51 stamina gems.
Blacksmith - Not Max Out, because the only reason i picked up this profession is for the extra gem sockets on gloves and bracers. Plus I haven't been successful with this profession to make money, that's why i never Max it out.
2. If you have a gathering profession, what is stopping you from dropping it for a profession that benefits your stats more?
Don't have a gathering profession.
F. Other Questions
1. What guild are you currently in? Who is/was the GM? Include their website.
Guild - Vaders Fist
GM - Elwindas
Vadersfist.org
2. Why are you leaving your current guild?
At the moment we are 10/12 HM and stuck in Sindragosa. It has been 1 month since we have done some good solid attempts to get her down, and attendance is getting worse every week. The boat is sinking and i cannot do anything to help, the interest to clear ICC 25 man heroic is lost. Ruby Sanctum came out and we haven't had enough people on line to go and clear it. It's getting real frustrating to be part of a guild who use to raid 5 nights a week to a guild that doesn't raid at all.
3. Do you play actively outside of raiding?
Yes, I do a lot of pvp (BGs). Farm my reagents for food , chase achievements points and make gold.
4. Are you able to take and improve upon harsh criticism?
Harsh Criticism makes you better as long as the Criticism comes with proof and credibility.
5. There will be bench time. Everyone will have to sit at one point in time or another. Are you okay with this?
Yes, absolutely. I understand sometimes better comp goes a long way in clearing content.
6. Why are you interested in joining Acquired Taste? do you currently know anyone in Acquired Taste?
One of my goals in this game was to play my Warrior to the max of his abilities, push him to the limit and be the best. I have done just that, and proved it to people around me and to myself. Another goal that i have on my list that sometimes feels unrealistic or unreachable is to be part of a World Top Guild, Server Rank #1 Guild and Achieve First Server Boss kills. I say unrealistic or unreachable not because I'm not good enough to do it, i just haven't got the opportunity to show my potential on an elite guild. I believe that i can accomplish this goal and many more if I become part of Acquired Taste. If i received the privilege to join, i will prove that I'm worthy of being part of your starting 25 man team. I currently do not know anyone in Acquired Taste.
7. What are the other guilds you applied to? any particular reason why you are shopping for multiple guilds?
I have applied to Acquired Taste, Edge and Tasty Beverage. The main reasons I have applied to this 3 guilds is because, all of them have a schedule that works with me, look well organized and with commitment to keep progressing , have talent and good reputation, and look like a good fit for me.
