Why are u applying to Revenant:
I am looking for a good guild to progress icc and new contenent ( RS ) with and i noticed that two of my friends are in this guild and when u checked WoWProgress.com i found out that this already progressing well in icc so i decided to give it a shot and apply hoping that i can raid again with my friends (Duo and Newk).

Is there anyone in Revenant who can vouch for you:
maybe my 2 friends Duo and newk but they didnt play with me on this mage ( we were with my rogue in eternal blood) so, not sure.

Previous guild. Why did u leave/ got kicked:
well, the day after RS was released they finally made a raid to RS ( after a while with alot of guild members telling officers to make 1 and they were about to cancel it ), so here we r going in and after 3 wipes on 1st miniboss they disbanded the raid and made another 1 for icc ... so i said to myself that those ppl r never gonna make it with that attitude tbh, not to mention ppl signing for raids and dont show up, if i started talking about that i wont finish xD .

What raiding experience you have:
Vanilla: Nothing actully, i joined wow in the end of vanilla
TBC: Kara and Gruul
Wotlk: Naxx10/25 | malygos 10/25 | OS 10/25 ( 10 man 3D but on my rogue he's named Cheap ) | ICC 10 (1st wing + fester killed and rotface failed attempt ) 25 ( 1st wing + rotface failed attempt ) | RS nothing yet just 1st mini boss try.

But i still know the tacs of the bosses i haven't encountered yet so, gimme all u got bosses

What kind of PC and connection do you have:
4Mbs with no lag , 40-50 Fps and no DCs unless something wrong with the server.

We raid 3 times a week; tuesdays, thursdays and sundays and we require people to atleast raid these days. Can you raid these days?:
Ofcourse, these days r perfect, actully its 1 of the reasons i wana join this guild .

Do you speak and understand english since this is the langauge spoken during raid?
Yep

Can you handle critisism and do you use this to improve your general performance?
Sure, if something wrong going on or some 1 has a better idea about my playstyle/gear etc. please let me know and ill do my best to improve .

Tell us something about yourself: Remember this is the first impression we get from you so make it worth it.

I'm a 17 years old boy ( soon 18 ) recently graduated from high school, i wasnt able to raid properly in TBC cuz of the school but now i wana make up for what i've missed and finish an end game boss with a real raiding guild that provides a friendly environment and friendly guild mates to enjoy playing with .

Thats all i guess, thanks for your time and sorry if there r some typos , oh and btw... did the green and yellow fit togather im trying to make this application the best i could .

First thing I saw when i looked at your apply was your gemming, why so many spell+spi gems? You need two for the meta, and unless the socketbonus is worth it, dont gem for it.


Also your hit is skyhigh, you really, really,really need to work on getting it down.

Hi there Osomo, 1st Thanks for replying to my appication

The SP/spi gems i use them as a blue socket gems since they r the best gems that could fit a blue socket for a mage as the spirit gives me crit chance when used with molten armor, and the socket bonuses are spell power which is rly worth to get, thats my opinion .

and about the hit, its actulyl out of my hind since most the gear i get is filled with hit :/ , im not gemming hit as you see nor using talents for hit ( except for precision so i can get to 3rd tier in frost ), atm im looking for a gear with less hit and more haste.

Please let me know if u want me to change some gems and tell me why they r better please

Thanks again

poor raid experience tbh but u have a big "A" from me cause u managed to make the link to ur armory
Gl with this...

hehe ty , i forgot to mention ulduar 10 btw only yogg left ( that was on my rogue )

You need to limit you spell+spi gems as much as possible, as this is pretty much the worst gem a non JC mage has to use.


Head: 12+9sp = 21sp + 10spi. Good gemming. You lose little spellpower here.

Shoulders: 12+7sp = 19sp + 10spi. Average gemming, you lose some spellpower here.

Belt: 12+7sp = 19sp + 10spi. Average gemming, you lose some spellpower here.

Legs: 12+7sp = 19sp + 10spi. Average gemming, you lose some spellpower here.

Gloves: 12+5sp = 17sp + 10spi. Bad gemming, you lose quite abit of spellpower here.

Ring: 12+5sp = 17sp + 10spi. Bad gemming, you lose quite abit of spellpower here.



Change out the gems in the ring and the gloves. You'll gain 6spellpower per item here.

Keep the gemming in the head, thats for sure. About which other gem keep, its really up to you, which part you think you'll keep the longest? Thats probably the one you want sp+spi on.

I couldve kinda agreed with your gemming (still only kinda) if you were fire. As crit is important in fire, and spi gives crit via MA.

hmm, you're right with that,i think 23SP gems would do better , im working on it, Thanks alot

Thanks for the application, an officer will post an answer soon.
Good luck.

Ok, thanks

EDIT: i just fixed my gems on my hands and ring, thanks osomo, i have 12 more sp now , not much but still better .
