Raiding Information
Communication is important, we use English for raiding. Do you speak English? Do you have vent? Do you have a mic and do you speak on vent when required?
Yes i do on all accounts
Do you have a stable connection, and do you suffer from regular disconnection issues?
No i dont, i mean i have had a few due to wowtunnels booting me from putty but i have so many other lowerping stuff that i usually switch to that if it looks like its going to be messy, other than that none at all
What is your average FPS and Latency in Dalaran and Ulduar/ToTC/ToGC Raids?
around the high 200's anywhere from 260 - 290MS and arount 32 ms in 25man raids
Our raiding time is ST11pm to 3am (with day light saving, in GMT term, it's 8pm to 12am GMT+8) Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday and Monday. Can you meet all these raiding days and times? If not please specify the day/time that you cannot meet and reason, do not apply if you cannot at least make 3 full days.
yeah raiding times are not at all an issue
It is expected you have thorough raiding experience and know ALL encounters and hard modes currently in game. Please list out the followings:
- Raiding experience in TBC (pre-nerf 3.0 raids). Brief summary is ok.
to be 100% honest i didnt even own a pc during BC went back and did them at 80 but thats hardly real raiding experience
- Raiding experience in WotLK prior to Ulduar. Brief summary is ok.
- Ulduar hard mode done in 10m and 25m version.
some uld 25 man hardmodes togc was out when we started doing them but on 10man uld HM completed
- ToGC(this refers to hard mode) 10m and 25m.
4/5 in 25man 5/5 insanity on 2 chars including this one
- ICC 10m and 25m.
11/12 in 10's and 11/12 in 25's obviously done the lootship HM
Based on your experience in Ulduar/ToGC, explain what you perceive your character's role in the raids.
support DPS,whilest pushing numbers my class also has support abilities such as bopping,dispelling hand of freedoms and sacred sheilding tanks if need be
In your opinion, what is the most difficult boss encounter in WotLK you have ever defeated and why? What was your role in that encounter, please elaborate in details.
id say anub hardmode (25) for my specific class, bopping the ppl being chased and holy wrathing shadow strikes (inturrpts) whilest maintaing high damage done.
Pls post a screen shot of your raid UI. (Screenshot has to be in combat and not in town)

(im hoping thats what your after my previous name was mokku both on frostmourne and khaz changed it due to the fact it was taken when i got back.
What do you do to prepare for an unfamiliar or new boss encounter?
basically i look at tankspot to get the feel for the abilities a boss casts then i go to stratfu for write ups then i go to youtube and look up class specific's of that encounter like id look for ret paladin points of view.
What is more important to you: loot or progression? Tell us why.
Progression obviously, nothing is more satisfying than downing a new boss and getting a new acheivement not only that when you progress with a guild feels like your apoart of something.
What do you think about staying beyond the required raid times to down new content?
yeah couldnt agree more than staying back nothing is more annoying than say what happend to me on monday we got 13% on lichking a few more attempts cpould have pushed it to a kill but people chose this thing called...real life? i dunno i dont own one of them but anyhow it was highly annoying.
What does guild mean to you?
its a family a place to raid with people who like to push on, a guild binds you together helps you overcome your obsticals and pushes you further ingame.
Do you play actively outside of raiding?
yes i do trying to get loremaster and i dunno enjoy the mates ive made here.
Do you have any well-geared alts? If so, please provide an Armory Link.
yes i do a hunter who i also raid flat out with.

What makes you different from other applicants? Why should Shidavere choose you?
im a keen, competant hardworking and reliable raider. Im constantly trying to milk class improvements by either lvling new proffessions swapping gems seeing what works better scouring formus and i believe if given the opportunity id be an outstanding addition to your proffessional team.
Part B
Is there any Shidavere member who can vouch for you?
currently a trial of yours Aype he knows me from one eleven and would know me as mokku.
Is there anything else you think we should know about you?

How can we contact you outside of the game?
