    Noriin - Marksman hunter (or survival)

    Who Am I: My name is Mark, 26, live in So Cal.  After taking a hiatus from school for...5 years, I am back and majoring in PR/Marketing.  When I'm not in school/playing WoW, I snowboard in the winter, mountain bike in the summer and do BJJ year round.  And I love Guinness

    Hardware/Internet: Dell shell for a lack of better words, Intel Core2 Quad, 2.33Ghz, 6gb Ram, 64bit OS and Verizon FiOS gives me the interwebs

    Spec: Currently, 7/57/7 for raiding with Serpent Sting/Steady Shot/Kill Shot as my major glyphs.  My Secondary spec is either a MM pvp spec or Survival PVE spec.  I don't usually use the survival spec much unless there is a big need for mana regen (i spec into Hunting Party), since DPS numbers are higher for Marks as gear gets better.  But I have no problem raiding as Survival...I have the spec as mentioned before, have the gold to regem, /wrists, and know my shot priority.  

    Professions: Blacksmithing and Jewelcrafting.  IMO the two best professions for physical DPS due to the fact of extra sockets in bracers/gloves as well as the JC only gems.

    Guild/Raiding History: Just transferred servers from Boulderfist so still trying to find a place to call home.  While on Boulderfist, I did raid with Vintage.  Vintage was one of the top guilds on the server but due to internal drama with officers and other members it made raiding a tough task.  This also led to many of the core raiders as well as the higher end players leave/transfer/faction change etc.

    Raiding history: nothing Pre-BC (on this or any toon, I started playing about mid BC)

    BC: Not on this toon: Kara, Gruuls, SSC, ZA, Hyjal, BT, some of Sunwell

    WoTLK: This toon : Naxx 10/25 cleared, 10/25 EoE/OS cleared (all drakes in OS), didnt raid much of Ulduar on this toon, 10/25 Ony, 10 ToC/ToGC cleared, 25 ToC cleared, 25 ToGC cleared to Anub. 10/25 ICC cleared to Sindragosa

    On my DK (Gammble, Boulderfist), same thing for Pre BC/BC, WoTLK: 10/25 Naxx cleared, 10/25 EoE/OS cleared (all drakes in OS as well), 10HM Ulduar cleared/Algalon killed, 25 Uld cleared,10/25 Ony, 10 ToC/ToGC cleared, 25 ToC cleared, 25 ToGC cleared to Anub,  10/25 ICC cleared to Sindragosa 

    Why I Am Applying to Civilian: I want to be a part of a guild that is pushing progression into new content and is "growing" as a guild (trying to not sound cliche) 

    Why Civilian Should Want Me: I am a dedicated raider.  I am always looking for ways to better my class as well as study up on other classes so that I might be able to help someone else out.  I show up to raids on time and do not AFK out or have problems that would make me always leave or miss raids.  I do my homework for new content and try to get as much information for myself as well as fellow guildies.

    What I Need To Improve: MOAR DPS!!!  Im sure that there are ways for me to always push my DPS up a little bit higher than previously.  Patience is also something I need to work on a little bit.  I like progressing but am content with wiping a hundred times as long as I am learning from it.

    The Hardest Lesson I Learned In WoW: It is very hard to progress when others just aren't into raiding and dont want to put forth the effort to push.

    My Role in Raiding: Shoot stuff with my arrows until they are dead.  I am also good at kiting things around if they get loose so they don't kill my healers...so I MD to my pet so that the tank can maybe have some time to pick it up or hopefully I have killed whatever said creature got away.

    My Favorite Raid Bosses: Didn't get to do it on this toon but rather my DK, but 10HM Mimi...that  is a fight that you can't just walk into and burn.  It takes planning and a group of competant players to actually down it.  It is also my most hated boss at the same time. lol.

    Re: Noriin - Marksman hunter (or survival)

     Hi Mark.  Welcome to the Civilian application process and good luck! I have just a few quick questions for you on your app.

     

    1. What utilities and resources do you use when making spec and gearing choices?

    2. In your own words, why have you chosen to go full Armor Penetration gems?

    3. Do you have a link to a recent Log report from a raid? 

    4. What was your reason for transferring servers and in particular to this server?

    5. What is your availability for raiding?

    6. Did you always raid with Vintage?  If not, what was your guild history prior to Vintage?

    Re: Noriin - Marksman hunter (or survival)

    1. I check up frequently on Elitistjerks and really anything that might seem credible online.  A lot of my gear/itemizing comes from players in top guilds in game.  I ask them what they do because there is always someone that is better at my class than I am.

     2.  A: mostly because the actually proc rate of NES is terribed.  B: I know there is a ARP cap of 5** which is around 60% i believe before any trinket proc.  The way I see it since the majority of my shots will benefit from ARP, why not be at 100%.

    3. The only logs that I have are of my survival spec, i just switched to MM on Monday so I havent ran anything as of late.  But if you would like to see those, I can get a link to them.

    4. I actually followed some RL friends over from Boulderfist.  Once we alll did though, they decided to jump ship and take a break from the game lol.

    5. I am available for all of Civilians raid times as well as other days

    6. Yes

    Re: Noriin - Marksman hunter (or survival)

    Isn't your character the Hunter named Katsuu in Vintage that was Survival specced and joined the guild about 3 weeks ago according to wowprogress? Same achievements, same # of kills, same professions down to BS @400, same gear aside from helm, all sans whats on your feed from the last several days.  Not to be a jerk about it, it just seems a little odd.
