re: App: Lock it up!

0
The application submitted by Lock it up! is as follows:

Quote:
What is your main characters name, class and raiding spec?:
Locktopus, warlock, affliction main

Tell us about yourself. How old are you and what do you do, for example:
I guess I'm your typical 21 year old WoW player. I love sports, play soccer competitively, but I'll admit I'm playing this game much more than I should... I work as a teacher's assistant, helping kids with difficulties at school.

Why are you looking to change guilds?:
What drives me in this game are achievements and hard modes. Getting something done that requires hard work, dedication and teamwork for raids is really what feels most rewarding to me. Unfortunately previous guilds would be satisfied with killing bosses the normal way, and only focus on 25man runs to get their gear, at the expense of hard modes and even 10man runs... I'm sure you'll agree, pugging is not fun.

What previous guild were you a member of?:
Currently a member of , previously an officer of and in their glory days :P

What are you looking for in a guild, and what do you think you offer to better our ranks?:
Looking for a guild that works on hard modes, very simply - why limit yourself on regular kills when there's more you can do to progress? I bring solid caster dps and knowledge of my class to the table.

We raid progression content Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings from 7:15pm to 10:30pm. Can you commit to 75% of that time?:
Yes

Describe your raiding experience and list the content you have completed. :
I have started raiding with the launch of the Lich King expansion, and gone through Naxxramas, Eye of Eternity, Obsidian Sanctum (3 drakes 10man, 2 drakes 25man), Ulduar (minus Algalon, 10 and 25man), Trial of the Crusader (3/5 heroic 10man, 0/5 heroic 25man). I probably could have gotten more done had my previous raiding groups been more focused towards hard modes - I DID have a great 10man group going for a while, through Ulduar, got all hard modes done minus Yogg-Saron.

Provide your WoW Armory link.:
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Lothar&n=Locktopus

List any alts that you play to help us in contacting you.:
Locktopus is the character I'm devoted to and the only character I really play on - my 8000+ achievement points are proof, I don't think I'd ever go back and do all that on an alt :P

Hmm, I guess the guild names don't show up if you put them in brackets... Currently in Octavarium, previously an officer of Victory or Death and the early Quebeker.

Do you have any combat parses for us to look at?

Also, whats your reasoning being affliction, when destruction is accepted as the higher dps spec?

Hmm, never used the online wow stats before... Since it's Monday I won't get to do much tonight but tomorrow should bring plenty of raiding and I'll be sure to get some reports for you.

As for my spec, I have to admit I just love the affliction rotation that much better. That said, destruction will definitely bring more single target dps, that's why I have it as my second spec, and in fact I use that one more often than affliction. Exceptions would include the good old Yogg-Saron fight, maybe Kologarn (multiple drain soul opportunities on the arms), and solo PVE. But yeah, even though I use destruction more, affliction at heart means affliction is my main spec! :P

re: Combat logs

Sorry about the delay - it took me a little while to figure out how to use the log uploading system, and when I got it, turns out I made a few mistakes when recording fights and only got a select few of them... Thankfully though, I also found out that a friend here HAS been recording them :D

Here's a link to a few fights, ToC25 normal, VoA25, and Onyxia25:

Thanks to those I talked to, very helpful - looking forward to hearing from the guild in the next few days.

Your DPS looks great and your application looks good. The big problem I see though is that while Octavarium may not be up to the same raiding level we are, they certainly aren't a dead guild. If you joined us you'd go from being one the of the top DPS'ers and always getting a raid spot (I assume) to sitting on the sidelines hoping a spot opens up. Our attendance has been great lately and our last applicant we accepted two weeks ago (a healer though) still hasn't gotten a spot for a whole night.
