Personal Information
Your name: Zach
Age: 20
Gender: Male
What time zone do you live in?: PST (server)
General/Game Information
How did you hear about Synthetic? Who, if anyone, do you know in the guild?:
- Forum Surfing/Trade Chat
Why do you want to join Synthetic?:
- Well not to sound like im just going down a list, but ive tried to app for Lazy Peon, got a very slow/reluctant/not caring response. (twice). Tried to app to Pretty Pink Pwnies. (no response). Tried to app to Damaged Justice to then have it thrown in my face and made fun of for the personal things i put in on the "any other details about yourself" type question. As i am trying to say in a few other questions being asked. I want to find another group that i can have access/options with. I play 1 toon fulltime in a guild (Tues/Thurs ~6-10) but at the moment we are still constantly swapping people out/in. I want to be able to have another player pool to be able to be able to play with. I have issues with social anxiety and depression (like many wow players.) im not the best at trying to get around, so i want to be able to not take members from you or try to just jump into something already started. I want to be able to play on another toon and have opportunities to play with (what im guessing is better then random trade trash) quality players. I am on 24/7 sadly so im always around, but because of most of the people in this group they aren't on unless they really have to be. I don't want it to be a deciding factor since i'm not 100% sure which toon im leaving/raiding on. But i am willing to take one/try on a toon.
What group are you applying for?: (1, 2, 3 or casual)
- I'd say i'm more then geared enough for any group. I'm currently on a team at the moment for tues/thurs so like in the question above, i'm just looking to open up my pool of people i can play with. I can probably describe my situation in a more private matter if you'd like as well.
How long have you been playing World of Warcraft?:
- Its probably cliche to say, but i have been on boulderfist since "vanilla" (i honestly hate that term). I've been here since pre-mara. (i was like.. 12 when i started playing this game..)
Tell us about your raiding experience. During any expansion were you a part of end game content and hard mode progressions?:
-"vanilla" zg (when it meant something)
-"bc" honestly didn't play that much, i wanna say thats when my console phase started as a little kid.
-"wotlk" up until icc, i was pretty much full reg/current. I never dipped into heroic/hm progression because of the group i was with. By no means do i consider myself to be some superstar, but for the most part we were a group of people that played to play. We were happy just getting the content down reguardless of it being hm or not.
-"cata" is when shit got real..
T11 (my old group from the past expansions) we all transfer'd to Staghelm US (don't ask, i don't know why either lol). We pushed 11/12 Reg (prenerfs when that meant something) and were top 4 on server (a month after the tier was going)
T12 That group died pretty much, not in contact with them anymore. Came back to Bfist, had an opening with someone on Burning Blade so left again. We went 1/6 HM prenerfs (when that meant something). As well as alliance first 10man Rag on server.
T13 For the most part because of IRL problems i didn't really try to raid, spent most of my time just messing around in bgs/lfr/pugs making people in reg/heroic gear look stupid.
What is your biggest gripe about the game in it's current state?:
-Scaling is just redonculious. Without gear some abilities are godly. With little gear they do nothing. With all gear they do mediocre. i.e. My hunter is doing roughly the same dmg he did 10+ilvl ago...
Are you currently in another guild? If so, why are you leaving?:
- Yes and No. As stated before i would be more happy to explain somethings more privately. The guild is not falling apart nor is it some sort of "long story short" inner drama ordeal. I just have multiple toons and a lot of time on my hands that i would like to manage better.
What guilds have you been in on Boulderfist (if applicable) during the current expansion? Why did you leave?:
- <You Gotta Be Trollin Me> I am friends and have been friends with Jeckt. I told him if he invited a certain player i would leave so that an incident could be avoided that i knew would happen. The next day it happened lololol...
- <Baller Status Achieved> I am friends with Mathmatix. Again not to just give generic answer, but i am still currently in a grey area on this.
Do you have Ventrilo and a working headset?:
- Yes, i hate vent, my talk button is a very comfortable bind for both toons/specs, but i deal with it. (Years of skype has become a crutch for not needing a talk button :/)
- Yes. Turtle Beach -EARFORCE X12-
Do you often experience lag or frequent disconnects in game? If yes, explain (provide system specs):
- No, more recently i have had a few sketchy moments because of windstorms, but never noticeable for actual raids. And as disconnects, my rooms power is connected to my moms bathroom. So unless she decides shes going out and has to go overboard with getting ready i never have power issues as well :D. (Yes.. im 20 and live with my mom.. sadface)
Do you share your account with anyone? If yes, explain:
- Nope
Character specific questions:
- Warrior dps for that matter is an odd setup. Even though technically SMF is better "project'd dps" its only better on a very slim min/max/perfect setup however when it comes to spec its sort of like how rogues are. You play based off weapons available/you obtain. So not to be a gear whore, but id play based off what i could get to drop.
What is your main spec/off spec?:
- [DPS] we deliver. (if you catch that reference i give you +1 internets)
What are your professions?:
- to be honest on my warrior i kinda just ignored them. Its not a valid excuse to say "i'm too good for them" but i never saw those extra stats holding me back. I've always held my own without them. I didn't feel the need to waste my resources to max them. My hunter that i play more then my warrior on is a max transmute alchemist and enchanter w/ all MoP patterns.
What is your total time /played on the character you are applying on?:
- The account im on now is only from the very beginning of wotlk. I traded my first account when i was like 14-15 for a console game and then started again when wotlk launched so i only have 115 days on my warrior. (Meh that really is not a lot, i have spread my time between honestly 6 characters all 60-100 days each. And depending on what time in the game means more then others.)
How much raiding experience do you have on this toon?:
- T11 on hunter. T12 on dk. T13 on warrior/boom/.hunter/dk. T14 on hunter/warrior.
Do you have any active alts that you play? What are their class/spec?:
- 486 Survival/Beastmaster Hunter.
- 478 Fury/Fury/Arms Warrior.
Please provide a screenshot of your UI and explain to us how you keybind your abilities:
-I'm failing at trying to attach my UI on this portion so i just attached it if you don't mind.
-Just saying right now, i use default. Its comfortable. Personally aside from recount/dbm i feel addons are a crutch. You become hooked to them, and if they don't work. Then usually that means you don't work.
- The 3 macros on the bottom middle are burst macros for 2min/3min/5min cds.
- The duplicated abilities on the right action bar are there for a view on cds.
- My AoE interrupt is on a modifier with my basic pummel.
- My battle/commanding shout i replace manually ahead of time. No reason to have both bound if i know ahead of time.
Do you keyboard turn?:
- Do i keyboard turn in a serious matter, no.. Do i have those bound still, yes. Sometimes i get bored and keyboard turn in circles in org.. i'll admit that.
Officer Randy Questions:
What is your favorite color?:
- Green
What is your quest?:
- No, i'm the player, i'm suppose to ask you for a quest.
Final Questions:
- I'd like to at least be able to talk to one of you before a final judgement that represents me is in place. There are a few things that are more private that i would explain that would probably help clear up any red flags.
Tell us a joke:
- This app. :3
Anything additional you would like to add, please do it here:
- My hunter usually floats between #5-8 on WoWprogress every week (and thats after people log in/out of there real gear). Which i'd say is not bad since i'm only 4/16 for this tier.
-
- My "Swagg" based names before i hear another "HUEHUEHUE UR BLACK" or "HIPSTER" or "SECRETLY WE ARE GAY" comment id like to throw out i really don't know where i started this name trend from. I used to be all about my warrior. I was tauren and all i did was pvp. I thought it was clever because of the juggernaut talent, not some dumb reference to "i'm the juggernaut bitch".(even though that fits it perfectly). Then next was my druid which i jokingly named "Swaggiebear". That was a pet name my friend gave me. And i kinda stuck with it and kept playing it, and so on and so on.
