Raiding

What talent build do you use to raid?:

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=LIMczhbZVV0VxxRVuqo I usually raid as fury but i can raid as arms if i'm asked to. Fury is a lot more laid back and requires no attention on a swing timer making it easier to pay attention to a fight. It's also less of a headache when you're planning out rage.

Tell us a little about how your class contributes to a raid.:

As a plate wearer and also a warrior i can take 1-2 hits from a few mobs. I can intervene or taunt to save a raid member if i have to. As a DPS I have to maximize my DPS while keeping track of my Aggro. As a warrior i have no Aggro dumps and CC so all i bring to a raid is Battle Shout and a ton of DPS.

What role are you most comfortable/geared playing?:

DPS

Would it be a problem if you had to wait 3 weeks or 3 months to get into raid?:

For a guild that's as developed as Downfall maybe not. I'd take the 3 weeks - 3 months as a time to rest from all the previous raiding I've done. I've raided in WoW since MC first came out. I'd love the rest.

List the instances you have experience in, and the farthest you have been in that instance.:

All the Pre BC raiding instances. Except AQ40 and Nax. Full KZ, Gruul, Mag, ZA, SSC, TK, and Hyjal. BT up to Bloodboil. Throughout my raiding career I've always been DPS. Pre BC i played a hunter. In BC I've played as a Warrior. As a hunter I was usually the one pulling all the mobs. I tanked for a small part of my Warrior's leveling and pre raid gearing.

What is your favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?:

I'd probably say Vashj. She's an extremely fun fight when you get it down. Seeing everything work together as cleanly as they have to is a treat.

What is your least favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?:

None really. All fights are fun in their own ways. None of them should ever really be hated unless you spend weeks just wiping on them. In the end it's all worth it.

General Questions

List your pertinent alts, as well as their classes and levels:

Shaman - 54 Hunter - 63

Is this app for your main alone, or would you like to bring alts over as well?:

Main only

Why should we recruit you?:

I know my class inside and out. I know its limitations and where it shines. Warriors are one of the few classes that can continuously DPS without limitations except aggro. I've had 3 years of raiding experience behind me and I use it every time I raid. I know how to take criticism and I use it to get better.

Why have you chosen to apply to Downfall?:

Because Downfall is one of the best guilds on the server hands down. You guys rank up there with some of the best and I'd be glad to be a part of the team.

What do you expect to get out of Downfall membership?:

I'd expect to make a lot of new friends. Hopefully I'll be able to raid and see all that the endgame content has to offer while having fun. Raiding while having fun is all I want out of the game and hopefully Downfall can help me.

How do you feel you will contribute to the downfall community?:

I'll be there to help out whenever i can. Whether its raiding or just another heroic. I'll bring everything i have to a raid to help down new bosses or old ones.

Do you have any references in Downfall?:

None I believe.

How long do you intend to stay in Downfall?:

As long as I can. I don't really enjoy guild hopping.

What things might cause you to leave?:

The only reason why I'd leave is if I'm unhappy in the guild. As long as I don't feel like an outsider I'll be fine.

If you are applying to raid, which nights can you raid?:

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Friday

Saturday

Sunday

Are you going to burn out?:

What timezone are you in?:

Pacific

How often do you think you would have to miss raid?:

Only in emergencies. I can't skip out on life if there's a big event going on. RL > WoW in most cases but I'll make it whenever possible. I don't say I'll make a raid unless I can really make it.

What might the typical reasons for missing raid be?:

Big family parties or emergencies.

Read everything here: http://www.downfallguild.org/loot Does that seem fair?:

Yes.

If Shihli tells a joke (good or bad), will you laugh?:

Your ass, or a hole in the ground?:

A hole in the ground

How do you feel about mods, particularly in a raid setting?:

I hate it when mods clutter my screen. I only run the essentials.

Are you willing to change mods that don't interface well with ours in raid?:

Yes

Personal

How long have you been playing WoW?:

About 3 years now.

How old are you?:

18.

Tell us about yourself.:

I'm 18 and I am currently enrolled in college. Taking General Ed classes while i decide my major. If I'm not on WoW I'm usually out with friends.

Are you in school or working?:

School

What Country/State do you live in?:

California

Any other significant hobbies?:

Family guys, Heroes? Tv? lol

Hi everybody,my request is

versipeliss — Sun, 10/05/2008 - 19:33

Hi everybody,my request is completely off-topic, but i have to try. I found this thread when i was searching for some drupal's module... Anyway, i wish Broxx could tell us what Unit Frame he is using (i'm not talking about trinty2 stuff). I searched on Curse, unfortunately i didn't find anything.Please Broxx i wished i can do it alone, but I couldn't :)

My unit frames are Pitbull

broxx — Mon, 10/06/2008 - 15:02

My unit frames are Pitbull :]

Moonbyrd. Just hit 47 last

jaibyrd — Sun, 10/05/2008 - 12:22

Moonbyrd. Just hit 47 last night.

Yes, I like to heal. No, I've never been shadow.

Lesda I've got a 46 druid

jaibyrd — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 17:18

Lesda I've got a 46 druid that would love to have some company while lvling too! find me.

Yes, I like to heal. No, I've never been shadow.

Way cool, Jai,... just

lesda — Sun, 10/05/2008 - 11:05

Way cool, Jai,... just leveled to 51 -- woot !!!

Post your toons name,.. I'll add to friends and look you guys up :)

DF community just grew by a bunch more :)

Woo lol. I'm at 54. We

broxx — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 09:20

Woo lol. I'm at 54. We should do some runs over the weekend :].

I'll get on that shammy

broxx — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 07:11

I'll get on that shammy then. I've been stuck at the 50s for so long now :\. Seems like its my deadzone. I had trouble around there with Broxx too but it didn't last this long. I'll send you a tell tonight if I get the chance. Thanks.

I spend my weekends on my

Aidin — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 07:21

I spend my weekends on my shammy, I'm lvl 50. If you want a questing/instance buddy, look for me on Zariyah!

Ohhh,... let's all hook

lesda — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 08:42

Ohhh,... let's all hook up,... I have a 48 shad priest :)

Kelmathor -- if you guys wanna group :)

Broxx was there in ZA last

Pedran — Fri, 10/03/2008 - 06:09

Broxx was there in ZA last night and seemed to know what he was doing. Saved my arse once when I screwed up. :) I don't normally voice opinions on guild apps (because lets be honest, Dragonfork and I are enough.......) but Broxx seemed like a cool guy.

If you need any help leveling an alt (and this pretty much sticks for anybody), look me up on either Pedran or Fjork on Friday nights. I'm usually online from 6pm gametime till 1-3am gametime. Once Pedran's rest xp is burnt down no real plans. You wanna get guranteed raid spot for Wrath, I'd follow G's suggestion and get that Shammy 70 and resto pre WotLK so you can level him super-fast at release.

I'll be on tomorrow

Shihli — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 21:53

I'll be on tomorrow afternoon, sometime after 1pm until sometime into the evening.

Find me on Shihli, Luchs, or (most likely) Drewpy.

None of the said officers

broxx — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 21:52

None of the said officers are on anymore :\. But I'm willing to raid as a Priest for now and maybe even through most of WOTLK. I have more fun PvPing on Broxx anyway.

Katibug isn't on most

Saja — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 19:35

Katibug isn't on most Thursdays either, unless it's pretty late.

Garreth isn't on most

Shihli — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 19:02

Garreth isn't on most Thursdays, but you can find other officers (Shihli, Keisjaa, Nuitarin, Epatrick, Ataraxia, and Katibug) on most every day in some form.

I could manage doing that.

broxx — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 17:58

I could manage doing that. Who can I speak to in-game for more info? I've been looking for Garreth but I'm not sure if thats your in-game name.

Well, I'll just put this out

garreth — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 14:26

Well, I'll just put this out there:

Downfall is in dire need of healers that want to raid. We are not in dire need of dps warriors, nor will we be short dps warriors in the future.

Being a dps warrior is like majoring in Communications in college: really fun while you're doing it, not too much work, but pretty slim pickings once you're on the job search ;)

ahh >_< lol I saw that one

broxx — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 14:15

ahh >_< lol I saw that one last night and I forgot to say... I use trinity2. It's kinda complicated but it's pretty to look at. Yea I play on that priest from time to time. It's in t5 helm and shoulders with t6 gloves. About 850 mp5 without imp spirit.

I'd really love to play my warrior in raids most of the time, but I don't mind healing every so often.

Tjs sounds familiar... the

Ardea — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:52

Tjs sounds familiar... the good type of familiar...

But he has a 54 Shaman... get to leveling.

Garreth check this quote out

jaibyrd — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:45

Garreth check this quote out from a previous entry by Broxx:

In addition I do have a toon that could count as my alt. Though its owned by a friend I'm usually on it when hes away at school. Its a T5 Holy Priest named Tjs.

Yes, I like to heal. No, I've never been shadow.

I agree, Broxx (imo) has

Ardea — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:39

I agree, Broxx (imo) has answered all but one question really well...

"What bars are you using?"

Lesda, Grats to Odyssey on the Arch kill! That is a fun fight.

Thanks Ardea,... Garreth

lesda — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 14:03

Thanks Ardea,...

Garreth provided us with a lot of info and strats -- I'm sure he is ecstatic not to get another question from me :)

And yes,... that BAR is way craaaaazzzzzzyyyyyy, ain't it?

Still stewing, G,....

Thanks Lesda, I'll miss all

broxx — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:26

Thanks Lesda, I'll miss all those fun nights with you guys.

I got hacked about 3 weeks

broxx — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 06:48

I got hacked about 3 weeks ago which gave me a break from raiding. When I came back I wasn't really excited. The environment just wasn't for me anymore. A friend of mine felt that way for a long time and we decided to leave. Though I guess we could have left in a better way than just logging on one day and gquitting. I talked to Corn and he seemed to understand.

Broxx was my guildmate at

lesda — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:00

Broxx was my guildmate at Odyssey and prior to that Lords of Fear; and it appears that we may have also crossed paths at Fallen Kingdom.

To be honest, I guess I was not aware that Broxx left -- he will be missed as I've always enjoyed raiding with him.

I applaud you Broxx, for the manner in which you have replied to some of these questions. Some folks may have taken this to the deep end -- but you have kept it very professional. Your maturity is beyond your years of age.

Every guild needs mature and seasoned player such as yourself. Odyssey's loss with be DF's gain.

Good luck with your app,...

WTB [Lesda Heals in

garreth — Thu, 10/02/2008 - 13:34

WTB [Lesda Heals in Wrath].

Speaking of, Broxx, you wouldn't happen to have a healer you like to play would you?

So Broxx....what happened

Foresight — Wed, 10/01/2008 - 23:46

So Broxx....what happened with you and Odyssey?

I have heard a few things and would like to compare stories.

Sorry Jai, I'll do that.

broxx — Wed, 10/01/2008 - 15:11

Sorry Jai, I'll do that.

A small point; The Odyssey

jaibyrd — Tue, 09/30/2008 - 19:31

A small point; The Odyssey raid was not the 'same' as the Lords of Fear raid. About half the raid left for Odyssey, that is not the 'same raid'. Broxx it would help you if you were more precise.

Yes, I like to heal. No, I've never been shadow.

Err totally forgot i

broxx — Tue, 09/30/2008 - 18:54

Err totally forgot i transfered with my cousins here at 62... Brain fart lol. We came from.. Runetotem I think(if not i'll ask my cousins... they'll probably remember). It was pretty long ago.

Raids Drunk was disbanded by Bloodyjason when the MT left. We tried reforming into Basic Rebels but it didnt work out. The main raid group left Lords of Fear to start Odyssey for more freedom. I left Odyssey because it just wasn't really fun for me anymore. I mean it was the same raid and everything but I just couldn't deal with some of the people or the way they treated other members.

Downfall really seems like a laid back guild. You guys all seem to be really good friends and I wanna try and be a part of it. It's one of the biggest guilds on the server and thats not easy to do. For that many people to be happy with a guild it has to be doing things right.

In addition I do have a toon that could count as my alt. Though its owned by a friend I'm usually on it when hes away at school. Its a T5 Holy Priest named Tjs.

edit: The original name for Broxx was Ulassa. Daggerspine - > Runetotem - > Gorgonnash

Reason for leaving Daggerspine was that my cousins started their toons on Runetotem and I Decided to transfer my warrior to play with them. Tjs came back from a really long break and transfered to Gorgonnash. We ended up following him because we didnt really know anyone on Runetotem.

I am guessing a name

Ardea — Tue, 09/30/2008 - 12:50

I am guessing a name change...
