What previous guild(s) have you been in and why did you leave?

Brewmasters of kalimdor = i joined brewmasters when i rerolled on this server about 3 years ago "i played on deathwing when the game came out" i had a couple rl friends in there i joined them so we could raid together. i left near the start of wotlk because i wanted to be able to do the highest content available with a guild that was more foccused on progression.

Brotherhood of Doom = i joined BoD around march 09 on my hunter tushan i had no plans to use him at the time but they needed hunters and after talking with fardale the hunter class leader i got myself to 80 and geared as much as poissble from hc in 3 days "got really lucky with the drops i needed" .
in bod i was one of there core raiders and i was in almost every raid they made me an officer there about 6 months ago. sadly a few weeks ago alot of the core raiders left which made it impossible to continue progressing in icc 25 in the end we couldnt even put together a group to farm it so we decided to just go inactive.

Walk on Water = the guild i am currently in a rl friend Ludicra started it and after bod went inactive and he did some arm twisting :) i joined them but there over all progression is behind where i was in bod and there are not alot of dependable raiders.

Why do you want to join Ubiquity ? What do you expect?
you have a good rep beyond just the progression side of things and i know a few people that have been in ubi and they say your a nice guild. as for what i expect that would be dedicated raiding and a social atmosphere.

Describe your self as a player
i play to have fun and to clear everything that i possible can i always push the class/role i am playing as far as possible i am willing to play what ever spec is needed i have done it before back in BoD as frost spec when the damage was very poor just for the buff i enjoy a change now and then.

How often do you play?
i play most days really the only time i am not available is when i travel to ireland to see my gf which is every 3 to 4 months for a couple weeks at a time.

indicate how you feel playing the different specs of your class

Blood = http://www.wowhead.com/talent#j0ERVhhIc ... 0gh:oiGMmV
My current tanking spec for single target tanking i would switch d&d glyph with glyph of rune stike at the moment i get asked to do alot of dungeon/add tanking where i find any thing to boost my aoe threat very helpful.
there are a couple changes i could make like removing the points from spell deflection to take subversion for greater crit chance on HS and DS but i dont have any trouble with single target aggro so i have held off from losing spell deflect which i personal like.
i do plan to remove a point from sudden doom to get dancing rune weapon which is more fun to use :) and looking ahead will be another defensive cd.

Rotation for single target = IT PS DS HS HS DS HS HS HS HS Rune dump = runestrike/deathcoil
Rotation for multi target = D&D IT PS Pest then its tabbing and HS DS Pest/blood boil

Frost = http://www.wowhead.com/talent#jZG0exNMc ... hxc:akpVMm
This is the spec i use when going frost again theres a few personal choices i put all five points in black ice over killing machine as i prefer constant damage over a slightly higher proc chance. and i have no points in chill of the grave because i have never had a problem with being starved of rune power but maybe i have just been lucky with the raid make up :)
i have heard about people gemming armor pen as a frost spec to reach the armor pen cap without any procs this is something i would be interested in trying but at the moment i have been dpsing as unholy so it would be a very expensive test :) .

Single target prio
1. killing machine with frost strike
2. keep frost fever on
3. keep blood plague on
4. obliterate
5. blood strike
6. frost strike
7. rime
8. horn of winter

Multi target prio
1. Howling blast
2. keep frost fever on
3. keep blood plague on
4. pestilence to all targets
5. death and decay
6. oblitarate
7. blood boil
8. frost strike
9.horn of winter

Unholy = http://www.wowhead.com/talent#jZG0xx0MZ ... Iqo:LbsMmV
my current dps spec its the standard unholy/frost spec i like it alot more then the old sub blood because of the free interrupt and of course it does alot more dps with my gear level which is never bad :)

Standard rotation on single target = PS IT BS SS BS DC HOW SS BS SS BS DC DC and a extra DC when there is the rune power
for fights like saurfang i use this = Speed potion Army of the dead Blood fury PS IT BS SS Empowered rune weapon SS SS Gargoyle

Do you have Ventrilo/TS installed?

yes got a mic and i know how to use it

What Addons i use
Xpearl
Deadly boss mods
Omni cc
Recount
Scada
Bartender
Dr damage
Omen

Raiding Experiance

Classic

TBC
cleared all content

WoTLK
nax = 10/25 cleared
Eoe = 10/25 cleared
OS = 10/25 cleared "3D cleared on 25 at the time"
Ulduar = 10 cleared all hard modes and algalon
Ulduar = 25 all apart from yogg saron
ToTGC 10 = cleared tribute to insanity
ToTGC 25 = 3/5
ICC 10 = normal cleared 9/12 hardmodes done
ICC 25 = 11/12 normal 2 hardmodes done
RS 10 = cleared

Are you able to show up on time and stay until the end?
i can raid at any time until the end

What DPS / TPS can I sustain in a bossfight?
TPS is between 10k to 14k 25 man raids
Dps as unholy is over 13k on saurfang down to around 10k/11k on fights like marrowgar on 25

What are the most relevant stats for my class in raids?
as unholy/frost it would be hit str haste arp crit expertise agilty
for frost its hit expertise str crit arp haste agilty

The steps I will you take to further improve my character?
i have done everything i can outside of raiding to improve my performance i read class forums to get tips i use mods to improve my raid awareness i have spent a fortune in gold to get the best upgrades available i even keep track of which abiltys other classes have for synergy.

Screenshots

the dps meter is not shown normally just when i want to check after a fight


What you can expect from me
A person thats willing to raid any where at any time who will not cause drama i realise you have enough dk allready and its not ideal but i know i can become a core raider given the chance i have done it before i can do it again. i have been raiding with a few people from ubi within the last few weeks and i would be very surprised if they had any complaints about my performance also past ubi members like fardale and ludicra could give there opinion of my performance as well as the people from bod that are still playing like razzerian.
in the end i just need the chance to progress further then is possible in a pug :D

i forgot to add that i am useing unholy as dps because i was supposed to be the person in BoD to get shadowmourne first. i completed the quests nearly three months ago but i only got to do one real run with the guild collecting shards before i went on holiday for 4 weeks by the time i returned the guild was disbanding.
since then i have been forced to join pugs to continue collecting and you know what pugs are like sometimes they get up to lk other times "like this week" they can only manage the first quarter so its slow going by myself still i have at the moment 23 shards.

If anyone is hardcore I'd say it's Kairos (excluding myself ofc). I have no idea what there is to think about. He's a solid player and 100% reliable. If my vouches would count for anything then I'm pointing at this application with two fingers and my toes.

What I meant was that there are a limited number of slots, and that because of that it might not be possible to just recruit anyone with a good app, and thus that might be the subject of the officers' discussion. :P

yes wrekk, we re aware of limited spots and thats why we take our time, and not rushing with decisions- we dont want to necesarly bench good players, but we dont feel like running 0-1dk setups either.

We ll give you answer by the end of this lockout. Thank you for your patience.
