Name?
Tim
Age? (18+ Only).
I'm 24.
Nationality?
Netherlands (Dutch)
We are a very sociable group and playing as a team is absolutely essential to us, Have you got Teamspeak3 and can you communicate clearly in English?
Yes, I speak fluently
AFX raids 2 to 3 times a week on a flexible raid schedule. We do signups for the week ahead and choose the 2 or 3 days that are most suitable i.e where 10 have signed up.... (Never Friday or Saturday). Are you ok with this?
Yes
Do you know or have any friends currently in the guild?
No
How did you find out about us? and what do you expect from our guild?
Saw on Trade-chat and on WoWprogress that you're searching for a melee DPS. I'm expecting a guild who has a semi-hardcore flex mindset to raiding with social activities outside the raiding.
Why have you Geared/Gemmed/Enchanted in a particular way? Explain?
Gear + Gems + Enchanting:
Pretty straightforward for rogues; I'm 558 iLvl, no matter what spec I play, I use the same, bar other reforgement which I use Shadowcraft for and also re-gemming.
7.5% Hit / Exp -> Agi -> Haste -> Mastery -> Crit (Small EP value difference from Mastery to crit, but is far less RNG based) All in all, everything is as optimized as it can get from gems to enchants to reforgement.
Benefition of professions:
More utility regarding movement i.e nitro boots. +640 (Flask + Synapse Springs) Agility passive buff in raids & longer duration of flasks. Pre-BiS helm (Engineering) will help progression in clearing normals / mythic to push dps.
Synapse Springs is macro'ed to Sinister Strike / Mutilate so it's always up.
Benefition of Troll (Horde):
Racial is BiS for rogues due to haste, It's better than goblin's due to variables and downtimes in fights, thus berserking is better than goblin racial in my opinion, as you can use it when you want to.
We raid 10 man's only and offspecing/alts is extremely desirable to us? What is your offspec and is it well geared? Do you have any Alts?
As a rogue, respeccing only happens once a while depending on the encounter, combat is superior when you get AoC trinket due to insane high up-time, otherwise my off-spec is Assasination which has the same iLvl bar other gems and reforgment.
As for Alts, no I have no main alt, as i'd rather focus all my time into my rogue.
What guild were/are you in previously/currently? Reasons for Leaving?
Null / Pandemic - Silvermoon-EU & Nordrassil-EU & Al'Akir (T5+ T6+ T7) (MemberRank) (3-4 Day(s) raiding/wk)
My starting guild as a raider, pretty vague memories from it, but started there as a total noob as a progression raider, worked my way up till they merged with another guild and made me the main rogue.
LEAVE REASON: Guild disbanded and merged with another guild on Al'Akir-EU
Pandemic / Eureka - Al'Akir-EU (T7+ T8 + T9) (Core Rank) (4-5 Day(s) raiding/wk)

[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/al-akir/Eureka/rating.tier9_25]
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/al-akir/Eureka/rating.tier10_25]
LEAVE REASON: Quit for CoD4 competive and T9 made me quit due to stupid placeholder raid.
Entity - Al'Akir (T11) (Raider Rank) (2-3 Day(s) raiding/wk)
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/al-akir/Entity/rating.tier11]
Friends guild with people from various games, who previously played WoW on a decent level (Requiem / Eureka with an ambition to have a nice motion of progression in Cataclysm which failed due to people not managing their time and bad time-optimization in raiding.
LEAVE REASON: Bad progression and I wanted to raid more than 3 day's /wk while in progress.
Invective - Kilrogg-EU (T11 + T12 + T13) (Officer Rank) (3-4 Day(s) raiding/wk)
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/kilrogg/Invective/rating.tier11]

[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/kilrogg/Invective/rating.tier13]
Joined them with an friend of mine, I managed to evolve intro a great core dps in Invective. I managed to get as far as officer into this guild I did get several nice WoL ranks. After a while people acknowleged my logs and were trying to recruit me with 2 of the other cores, we refused to leave as we decided to see how we could do in T13. After the initial bad progression , Showdown approached us again and wanted to take the 3 of us and we decided to go there to get better and learn more.
LEAVE REASON: Went to Showdown to raid on a higher level due to bad progression in T13
Showdown – Zenedar-EU (T13) (Raider Rank) (5+ Day(s) raiding/wk)
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/zenedar/Showdown/rating.tier12]
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/zenedar/Showdown/rating.tier13]
A few core from Invective got asked by Showdown to strengthen their squad after disappointing progression as they saw us as very promising due to our very fast 10HM kills on Yor'Sajh and Ultraxion, top-guilds (Envy / Method / Apex) where pulling away the best players and after 6 weeks we came there, they disbanded due to the GM moving to Method and other to Apex and Envy.
LEAVE REASON: Guild disbanded.
Dubious - Jaedenar-EU (T12 + T13 + T14) (Officer Rank) (4-5+ Day(s) raiding/wk)
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/jaedenar/Dubious/rating.tier13]
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/jaedenar/Dubious/rating.tier14]
[http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/eu/jaedenar/Dubious/rating.tier14_10]
My own made guild 10HC Progression guild with Fishnuts (http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/t ... s/advanced) after a while when Showdown died we approached and cherry picked the best players from Kilrogg who wanted to come from Kilrogg-EU (Invective / Prophecy and Pulse) to make an semi-hardcore progression guild on a other realm. We decided to move to Jaedenar for a new fresh start to get involved into the top 150~200ish raiding in DS / MoP. DS went really well. Unfortunately I had to be hospitalized 3 times in a short time frame of half a year and I decided toto step down as a Officer to social in MoP, while later quitting the game completely due to health issues.
LEAVE REASON: I became very ill and had to be hospitalized for ongoing health issues. Decided to quit WoW for the time being to regain my health.
ImPulse – Al'Akir-EU (T16) (Social) (2 Day(s) raiding/wk)
Friend's guild, who offered me a spot to do normals and a bit of heroic progression. As I came back after a 1 year hiatus, this guild is offered me to get back in shape so I can look further ahead in WoD to go somewhere else as I intend to do.
LEAVE REASON: I want to raid on an decent level again which I used to play. I'm eager to learn (Knowledge is infinite in WoW) and play with players who are at the same level as me and even higher, who min-max their DPS as they should be.
Raiding experience? (MoP only)
SoO - 14/14 NM (Seen every HC encounter till Dark Shamans) (Came to WoW back 6 resets ago)

Any Final Words? (Your chance to to tell us a bit about you)
I'm Tim, from the Netherlands and I'm studying CMD (Bachelor degree (UI design for OS's / Android and iPhone) My hobbies are marathon running ,competive gaming and going out / eating. Most people would call me an very motivated, happy and calm person in general, and I'm an very to approach guy on-line. besides running for charity's around Europe, my biggest passion is competitive gaming. I like being competitive with everything I do, but I love it the most gaming-wise; The game's I've played on a high level are; America's Army , Call of Duty 4 and World of Warcraft. I've also won several on-line competitions such as TWL / ESL / CAL (Little brother of CPL) and HTGN's in my past as a FPS player.
Also wanna point that my gear isn't really to the standard you're looking, but due to my experience in other tiers I'd like to prove myself as a very capable raider.
