Raiding
What talent build do you use to raid?: 
i use a 8/5/48 talent build, not only when i raid but for everything, i am a tank, from tweeking around, i think this is a stronng build for tanking, im always open to opinions to make it better.
Tell us a little about how your class contributes to a raid.: 
well, i am the beat stick of the raid, its my job to keep threat and aggro and make sure things run smoothly, i need to know how the pulls work and what to do when things go wrong, leading or following a raid cannot survive without its tank(s), having said that people undermind warrior tanks b/c we arent paladins and i like to prove them wrong :).
What role are you most comfortable/geared playing?: 
Tanking
Would it be a problem if you had to wait 3 weeks or 3 months to get into raid?: 
not at all. waiting to get into a raid makes it more special and something to look forward to, so that when your time comes to be apart of that raid your gonna more than likely give 110% because its something you've wanted, something thats been just waiting happen. it makes you appreciate raiding more because its not something your guaranteed but more of a privilege.
List the instances you have experience in, and the farthest you have been in that instance.: 
As far as instances go, ive tanked them all, regular or heroic, except for magister's terrace, havent had a group that can finish it yet :(. but as far as raiding: karazhan is for badges and gearing alts, mags and gruuls full clear, zul' aman: bear, eagle, lynx, TK: void reaver, and MH: rage winterchill.
What is your favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?: 
my favorite raid encounter would have to be netherspite in karazhan. its one of the more unique fights in the gam, can be a pain in the butt but also tests how well you can work together as a team.
What is your least favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?: 
my least favorite fight would have to be mags. you would think its easy to click a stupid little cube but people screw it up just about everytime. its so easy its frustrating.
General Questions
List your pertinent alts, as well as their classes and levels: 
souza, level 70 rogue
Is this app for your main alone, or would you like to bring alts over as well?: 
Main only
Why should we recruit you?: 
im always looking to meet new people, make some friends, over come new challenges and test my potential. i have a positive, wont quit because we wiped 2 or 3 times attitude. and i love to do what i do: tank. wether it be for lowbie guilides or peeps just needing a tank for the daily. i could keep rambling on about why you should take me blah blah blah or you can take a chance and see what im about.
Why have you chosen to apply to Downfall?: 
well someone said for me to go check out the guild site and i did and was really impressed, just so much progression and the guild has been around sinces 2004, i figure theres gotta be something special about you guys.
What do you expect to get out of Downfall membership?: 
to progress further in my raiding career and be apart of an awesome team, legacy and family.
How do you feel you will contribute to the downfall community?: 
by having and keeping a positive attitude and keeping morale up of other members. you never know when you could be the one to make someones day that much better.
Do you have any references in Downfall?: 
deleyna/crixianna
How long do you intend to stay in Downfall?: 
as long as i feel wanted and that i contribute to and not take away from downfall.

pacific time (GMT-8:00)
How often do you think you would have to miss raid?: 
hardly ever, if i say ill be there im there unless its an emergency.
What might the typical reasons for missing raid be?: 
work or family related
Read everything here: http://www.downfallguild.org/loot Does that seem fair?: 
lol, awesome, blunt and to the point, very good leadership just based from raiding guildlines.
If Shihli tells a joke (good or bad), will you laugh?: 
Yes
Your ass, or a hole in the ground?: 
My ass
UI
How do you feel about mods, particularly in a raid setting?: 
mods make raiding not necesarily easier but deffinately help us out, hard to imagine what raiding would be like with out them.

Yes
Personal

After 10/11's Kara!!1, I'm

Torvo — Sun, 10/12/2008 - 11:43

After 10/11's Kara!!1, I'm giving Demon my fullest recommendation for the guild. Yeah it was only a Kara, but he volunteered to show up and MT for us and acquitted himself very well. It was !!1's fastest clear of Kara yet (only 2 wipes - both due to bad infernal drops on Prince - and a full clear in under 4 hours), and Demon was a big piece of that. Looking forward to playing more with you!

I dont know much about

Deleyna — Tue, 10/07/2008 - 03:50

I dont know much about warrior tanks, but this guy is very nice I haven't known him long, but he's a good hearted helpful guy. I was (on my shammy crixianna) LFG for any hellfire instance for rep runs & he psted me & asked if I would heal CoT durn for his rogue he'd tank shat halls for me. He kept his word & then logged to his rogue for another run shat halls with me to help my boyfriend get his pally revered for helm glyph.

That being said he knows his stuff. He seems like a very trustworthy guy (he kept his word) and really nice to boot.

Think he would make a good addition to the ranks of downfall

lol thanks, its not that i didnt know how to take the screenshot but that my laptop wont take it when i press the print screen button, so thats what i came up with. and as far as the no points in improved sunder armor, i dunno, i think i skipped over it when i did the chart then, what should i take away from to get the points to put in it?
