--- General Information ---1. Tell us a little about yourself: How old are you? Where are you from?IRL name Kenny. 19yro NJIT student. I'm from a small town in North Jersey and now live in Newark, NJ.
2. What guilds (if any) have you been in? If so, why did you leave? If you are a server transfer, why did you pick Immo/Skullcrusher?Genesis / Conspiracy - My 1st real raiding guild. The guild eventually lost too many members and fell apart ~ midway through 3.3.
Shadow of the Sun - I joined SotS around the time of their 1st 25 LK kill. I got up to 9/12 Heroic 25 down, minus the obvious 3, before 4.0.1 hit and the guild stopped raiding.
3. What is the best way to contact you?/who Xana Generally if Im not on the above toons Im leveling another alt with Xana as the 1st 4 letters.

4. How did you hear about us?Everyone knows Immo. But I was recommended to apply by Piemaster (roommate).
--- Raiding Information ---5. Post your armory link. Post any info not available on armory.http://www.wowarmory.com/character-shee ... n=Xanatoss6. Do you have Ventrilo and/or a mic to communicate with your prospective guild members?Yes
7. What are your computer specs and internet connection? Can you handle max graphic settings at a reasonable frame rate in a 25 man raid?i7 920 core overclocked to 2.98GHz; 1064 video card, 3688 VMemory, 1064 vcard; 6gb RAM soon to be upped to 12gb. Its a little overkill for WoW but I can handle any angle of any raid encounter w/ 60fps on full settings =P
8. Please attach some World of Logs records (or any similar log parses you may have) of some recent raids. Feel free to submit bad ones and identify what you did wrong and why they weren't as stellar as other ones you've submitted (Learning from mistakes and not repeating them again makes for much better raiders and shows us you can learn and adapt).http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/crft ... etails/12/ This is a Halion fight from Mid-September. My gear wasn't as good but it's close. Unfortunately SotS was lax about posting on World of Logs.
9. Tell us about your raiding experience. Go into any pertinent details about what you killed and what guild(s) you've killed it with. Let us know if it was pre-nerf or post-nerf. Tell us about how you made a difference and helped your past guild achieve those kills. How does your class role play into all of this?I was on server Arthas in Vanilla as an Orc Rogue. Did all of the content up to/including AQ40, but not much of Naxx. I quit when BC hit, and started up on this toon at the start of 3.3. I started raiding a little after 3.3 and have cleared ToC, ToGC, and ICC 9/12 Hm25.
10. Tell us about your class. Likes, dislikes, etc. What makes you good at your class? Tell us a little about gear, your class, situational gear, specs, and how it all relates to your flexibility in raiding. Go into high detail about your rotations/spells/abilities you use, how it maximizes your job and why.First and foremost, its a Rogue. Not a Rouge. The Rogue is one of the most famous classes in WoW imho. Unfortunately it attracts a lot of idiots and failures, due to the nature of the class. In cata rogues are supposed to be going away from stunning and bursting, and getting more survivability. Hopefully this will weed out the bad players who kill opponents during a 10sec stun and then cry when vanish "breaks".
My classes' raid dps revolves around my auto attacks to apply poisons, the envenom buff to apply poisons, and bleeds which have a poison effect (Venomous Wounds). Ergo my stat priorities are Exp > Spell Hit > Agi > Haste > White Hit = Mastery.
The general dps rotation is Open w/ Garrote, put up Slice and Dice, put up Rupture, and then keep up Envenom and Rupture (Env refreshes SnD). I use Vanish and Vendetta and Cold Blood on CD but I try to line them up together if possible, and w/ Heroism if I know when its coming beforehand.
11. What is your schedule like? What times during the week can you raid? Our raid start at 8:00pm EST and last until 12am midnight. Usually Sunday through Thursday.I'm always available.
12. Please post up a link to a screenshot of your User Interface.http://i992.photobucket.com/albums/af47 ... 174055.jpg13. If your house was on fire, and you were raiding with us, what would you do?Depends what fight we were on =P. Any fire would be a stupid fire drill anyway.
14. General Comments about yourself to us. This is your opportunity to convince us that you are the players that we want in our guild.Xanatos is never pronounced correctly so I'll correct that now. The 'X' is said as an 'S' and the 'o' is short. I got the name from an old Star Wars series, Star Wars Apprentice, which I read ~10 years ago. Coincidentally its also the antagonist of the show Gargoyles. In WoW I've never been one for achieves or novelty items. I defiantly enjoy getting new pets/mounts/achieves, but that's not my main goal in the game. I just want to beat raid bosses and other players. Beating them in a grand and humiliating fashion is just gravy. I hope in cata to do both PvP and PvE, but raiding will come 1st.
By the by if the need ever arose for me to go combat Id be more than willing.
