Raiding

What talent build do you use to raid?:

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/paladin/talents.html?tal=0550300251013153105105024130020300000000000000000000000000000000#none I use this build to raid. Clearly the holy side because that is what I do heal. As far as the points in protection: bringing all the available buffs & redoubt helps me survive a bit longer if tank loses aggro & increased time on BOP i think is very helpful as well as the increased armor. This is just the way I have been speccing and if there is another way that is "better" i am open to suggestions.

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

Being a pally we bring buffs & auras. Healing, resurrection, BOP. Being a holy pally I keep the tanks alive and the raid. Pally have very good main target healing although we don't have any HOTS like druids or AOE heals like priest COH or Shammy Chain Healing therefor we are better suited to one or a few main targets to heal instead of raid healing.

What role are you most comfortable/geared playing?:

Healing

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

nope I can pug until then or just work on leveling my lock

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

I didn't start playing wow until after BC so i never ran much pre-bc content. I have been in a few mount runs in ZG, killed a few dragon bosses (in duskwood). That's about it Full clear kara, gruuls & mags downed. Stickit has only been in on a gruuls kill but i have killed mag on my rogue as well (which was with downfall) First 3 bosses in ZA downed. Joined in SSC with you guys when Aidin ran it we only did Lurker but didn't down him.

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

Gruuls simply because I have only done mag's once. I don't have much experience in 25 mans but I have watched Deleyna do them with Downfall alot.

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

I don't really have a least favorite 25 man

General Questions

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

Termanator - 70 rogue Frozentouch - 70 mage Electricfyin - 70 Shaman Darklock - 58 Warlock

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

Main only

Why should we recruit you?:

http://wowwebstats.com/ehaioltcrszca (Those are my parses from the SSC run I did with Malt on 9-20. I dont have any parses from a longer run on my pally.) I have been told that you guys need healers. I have been thinking about applying for awhile just haven't done it. I like to heal & plan on staying Holy after WOtLK (after leveling of course)

Why have you chosen to apply to Downfall?:

Because my girlfriend is in the guild, and all I have heard is good things about everyone in downfall & I've enjoyed running the raids I have done with you guys (& girls) After running mags & gruuls on my rogue with Malt I have been thinking more about applying Deleyna told me that I should since downfall always needs good healers so here I am.

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

Being in a larger guild with such a friendly community & feeling of "family" as deleyna puts it. More time to raid with more people & not having to pug everything (which half the time doesn't work.) Really can not expect anything out of Downfall unless I put in the effort on my part. So no I don't expect all the loot LOL I will work for what I get.

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

I am a friendly mature person. I also have several alts that are always willing to jump in to fill a spot in raid (permitting that they are geared enough) there have been times (deleyna told me) that there are abundance of tanks & healers online for mags/gruuls etc but not enough dps, weird yes but it happens. I can always bring a different class depending on what would be needed.

Do you have any references in Downfall?:

Deleyna & I guess maybe Aidin since I have worked with her a few times in Malt

How long do you intend to stay in Downfall?:

As long as I am wanted

What things might cause you to leave?:

Only if I felt that I was no longer wanted or if the guild was to ever disband but I doubt that would happen

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

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

Saturday

Sunday

Are you going to burn out?:

Anything else you would like to add?:

I am on pretty much everyday, on one character or another, from anywhere from 2-5 hours. I work night shift on my job (on east coast) so I leave for work around 10pm (7pm server time) which is about time for the raids that go on currently. Deleyna told me that in wrath there will be new raids and from what she understands there will probably be a few more 10 mans that run since you have the option of 10/25 in the raids in WOtLK. So i could raid everyday if there was one goin on in our timezone.

What timezone are you in?:

Eastern

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

If I sign up to raid I will be there.

What might the typical reasons for missing raid be?:

Girlfriend goes into labor (LOL) family emergency. If I sign up to be there I would be there unless emergency & I'd make sure that someone knew that I couldn't make it to raid instead of everyone waiting on me or expecting me to show when I can't.

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

sounds fair to me

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 already use the raid pack have been for some time after Deleyna told me to install it. Grid is great for any healer and the package as a whole is good. There are a few I still haven't figured out completely how to use, but I'm learning.

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

Yes

Personal

How long have you been playing WoW?:

Almost 2 years (started around Jan 07)

How old are you?:

Tell us about yourself.:

I'm a easy going guy, I get along with just about everyone. I'm going to be a father soon, as we are expecting our first child (well my first/her second) in March of 09. I work a full time job. I like PVP as well as most of my gear is from battlegrounds & arenas. I have my T4 holy gloves but I don't wear them simply because my brutal gloves have better stats & healing then them. So the gear you see me logged out in is my holy set, probably minus the pvp trinket

Are you in school or working?:

I have a full time job

What Country/State do you live in?:

Virginia USA

Any other significant hobbies?:

fishing, hunting, playing Halo 3 & a few other games on xbox360

hopefully his work schedule

Deleyna — Wed, 10/22/2008 - 19:20

hopefully his work schedule won't be a problem i'm gonna see if he will be able to make it to the ZA run this weekend if so I'll have him sign up for that. He needs more time in with the guild

same here garreth. I wish I

Stickit — Wed, 10/15/2008 - 18:10

same here garreth. I wish I could raid in one of the more dedicated raids but the timezone difference makes up the biggest factor. Usually you guys are starting invites & such as soon as we have to get ready to leave /or leaving for work. I'd be more than happy to fill in at anytime

This guy knows a lot about

garreth — Wed, 10/15/2008 - 14:22

This guy knows a lot about healing. Wish he could be on more often!

BUMP since there's a million

Deleyna — Tue, 10/14/2008 - 17:04

BUMP since there's a million people on

Aidin, with my work schedule

Stickit — Mon, 10/13/2008 - 11:48

Aidin, with my work schedule I honestly dont know if I could work with 4 nights/3 nights on a weekly basis. I work all night shift like deleyna but i do have nights off during the week unlike her, but vary from week to week. Some weeks i have mon & tues off then some wed & thursday. I'd be more than happy to fill in whenever needed cuz there's always something that comes up with someone. I'd love to get in some more malts if your gonna do anymore before wrath, if not I'll try to pick up a kara or so with some DF members.

And thanks for the good comment & Jos too

I think both Stickit and Del

Josalin — Mon, 10/13/2008 - 11:11

I think both Stickit and Del are great people, and make an awesome pair. Stickit has ran with me a few times, and even on the unsuccessful runs he really takes it in stride. A++ Would group again.

I wish we had gotten a

Aidin — Mon, 10/13/2008 - 06:35

I wish we had gotten a chance to roll Stickit through some more mAlt runs before Wrath. This way he'd have been able to show his stuff.

We took him to mAlt SSC...which didn't go so hot if you remember, but he stuck it out like a champ. He did his job, and he did it well. Great attitude, and honestly who doesn't like a healer with a great attitude???????

What are your plans in Wrath Stick? Do you want to raid 25 man content? 4 nights a week progression, or maybe 3 nights a little more laid back?
