Previous Guilds:

Vanilla-BC: I was in a guild named Gambling Red Swords (GRS) located on the bloodhoof server. I was a casual raider/member for 3 years up until the release of Wrath.

Wrath: I was in a guild named The Forgotten Army (TFA) located on the azshara server. The guild was ranked number 1 on the server, and I raided with them through Naxx, EoE, and OS.

Cata: I quit the game back in Jan 2011, however when I decided to come back (July 2011) to the game I was offered an officer position in Heavens Wrath and I recently gquit about 1 week ago.

7. Why did you leave each of these guilds? I left (GRS) because the guild was starting to fall apart and people were leaving WoW for different games. My friends and I server transfered to azshara where we joined TFA. I was with TFA for about 2 months and then the guild decided to server transfer because the server was dead and I decided not to follow them. A month after the launch of cata, I decided to quit the game. When I came back I was offered a position in Heavens Wrath on bonechewer. I recently gquit because the leadership in the guild was not stable. I felt like I was wasting my time because we would take 1 step forward and 3 steps backward. I felt the need to gquit and find a better guild suited for my play style.

8. What Pre-BC raid content have you experienced: I only raided MC in vanilla.

9. What Burning Crusade raid content have you experienced: I raided Kara, TK, ZA, SSC, Mag, Hyjal, and BT.

10. What WotLK raid content have you experienced: I raided Naxx, Ony, OS3D, EoE, Ulduar, ToC, and ICC.

11. How often do you read forums, theorycraft, etc on how to improve your game? I read different forums and websites on a weekly basis to help improve my DPS and play style.

12. Please list your opinion on the three most important stats for your class/spec and why? Int>Hit>Haste. Intellect is the number 1 stat for a caster because the more int you have the harder you hurt Hit is the 2nd most important stat because you cant DPS a target if you are constantly missing. Haste is 3rd because the more haste I have, the more my dots tick on the target. However I will say that one must learn to balance mastery and haste in higher end Tier gear but overall haste is the most important stat.

13. What is your normal spell / ability rotation and why? I have found that this spell rotation has the highest DPS output. I start by using Curse of the Elements, I then pop Demon Soul followed by haunt, unstable affliction, bane of doom, and corruption. I cast shadowflame if I am in melee range and I spam shadow bolt as a filler. I keep haunt on CD and maintain my dots on the target. When the target hits 25% life I then use Drain Soul instead of shadow bolt and I pop a potion and my doomgaurd spell.

14. Please list all of the relevant raiding mods you use: I currently use DBM, Recount, and Omen

15. Please post a screenshot of your Raid UI:

16. How did you find out about Impervious? I applied to this guild back in Jan 2011 and I was recently told to apply again.

17. Why do you feel Impervious is the right fit for you? I feel this guild is right for me because I love to progress in hardmodes and that is exactly what this guild is doing. I love to bring my "A" game, and show everyone how to DPS properly haha ;)
18. Explain how you would be an asset to Impervious: I would be an asset to Impervious because I research every fight before we attempt it, I am always on time and reliable. I am ALWAYS flask/food buff ready. I have been a raid leader before and therefore I know the importance of being dedicated and I know what is expected of me.

19. Please list any references in guild: Twitzer
