re: App: Guetta

The application submitted by Guetta is as follows:

Quote:
Character Name, Age & Name::
Yuskay

Class & Spec (Off-spec)::
Druid, Balance / Resto Or Feral

Plz link your wow-armory, and plz be logged out in your MS PvE gear!::
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Maiev&n=Yuskay

Explain some key points in why you spec and glyph the way you do?::
My spec is the standard boomkin spec, only think it does not have it dreamstate but with innervate and endless mana pot mana isn't too much of an issue, i glyped starfall and starfire, the 2 glypths for starfall are an easy choice, reduction of cooldown and reduction of range and increase in damange, its great to reduce the range because with the default spell i rum the risk of pulling extra mobs unless im carefull. The starfall is very good aswell it refreshed my moonfire and avoids the need to waste a GCD reapplying the dot untill it cannot be extended anymore.

What stats do you prioritize? What do you gem for and "Why"?: :
Spell Power, Hit, Crit, Int, And Haste. Haste becomes more vital that i need to become more geared before i will focus on haste directly. i gem for spell power and usually int, once my gear improves though i will focus on only +sp gems for sp gives me the higher dmg attacks. at this moment i am gemmed to make my meta work and give myself some int, alot of the gear i found was lacking crit and int helped bring it up a little bit more.

What professions do you have and why?:
herb and alch, herb is given for a druid i can pick flowers while in flight form and its a great source of cash, alch ive always loved alch not only can i make flasks and other usefull raid items i get access to endless mana pototions and other benefits, i am exlier spec and i do enjoy many great procs of flasks. and we all also know that lifeblood is epic heals.

Whats your raid experience in Icecrown Citadel 10M and 25M?::
Ive ran 10m several times ive only downed the first few bosses, my current guild only raided at times i can attend once or twice every few weeks, and recently have not all, i've been able to raid just unable to find a guild that can raid inaccordance with my Timezone

What kinda DPS/HPS do you put out on fights like Sauerfang and Festergut 25M?::
As of right now ive maxxed consitant dps around 5.5k-6k however my gear is constantly improving and i wouldn't say thats a solid number, most likely higher

What Raid add ons do you use? ::
DBM, OTM, Healbot If im healing,

Do you use vent? and can you listen and be vocal?::
Yes, i have a built in mic and use vent

Where did you learn of Villains on Vacation? - and why did you decide to app here?::
Repsonded to my post on the fourms about a guild that raids within my timezone. i apped because im looking to secure a good solid guild before cata comes that i can stick with and raids within the time i am able to.

We consider ourself to be a non-drama, nerdrage and elitistjerks free guild. We play this game to have fun and firmly belive its possible to down end game encounters in a calm and friendly enviroment!

This is your chance to explaine why we should accept you to our guild.. What makes you stand out?:
I've been playing wow off and on since vanilla, i have alot of history on maiev back in burning crusade i played a hunter (arcadian) and i was apart of PWA's And Maievs first boss killings in sunwell, a schedule change caused me to be able to no longer play so i quit wow for some time until mid cata release, about 9 months ago i joined the united states army and ended up stationed in Germany, being 9 hours ahead of sever time is very hard to find a guild that can raid within my time constraints, however after seeing your post on the fourms and knowing that you do raid within my time window, i wanted to try and get onboard. I am an experienced player i am lacking a little in the cata endgame but i understand wow and was a big theory crafter in the days of Burning crusade, my goal is #1 dps and of course i cant do that if im dead from not knowing fights. oh and ill be in Germany for the next 2 years so my schedule isn't going to change anytime soon. i do understand my gear is not the best but i try to pug and have been collecting frost badges should have enough for another piece today or tomorrow. Eitherway im apreceate the oppertunity to be considered and do apreceate any advice or guidance that can be given regardless of the decision of my application, i am able to discussion and will be contacting the gm of the guild as soon i see him online ingame
i also do have another 80 ele/resto shaman its a little less geared than my druid but if the need was there i would be happy to play the shaman but prefer my druid. also one more thing not all of my items are enchanted i recently picked up a few peices of gear and working on slapping some enchants on them, my weapon should be enchanted as soon as i can find an enchanter..

1. very impressive app

2. Have you been planted in Frankfurt?

3. I'm not too sure you'll find a "better" guild than VoV that can match your time-zone. Ark (our Life Coach and Raid Leader) and our qualified members will take a more thorough look at your spec, gear, talents etc...

4.Thank you for applying and taking the time doing so.

Renegaderay (the guy with the guild)

Im in Mannheim, however word through the grapevine is that we are moving to Italy. or another part of Germany because mannheim is closing. they dont expect that to happen for a few years though probably after my tour has ended so well have to see what will happen with that.

Ty for the compliments on the app i really do appreciate it.

...whoa.
We would be very very impressed if you manage to answer them brain-teasers above. The Danish department of our guild is already very content, so don't be intimidated (though i doubt you will) by the advanced edition above this post. Since we're both in the same odd time-zone hit us up in-game to "finalize the deal"

oh and that creepy "I like you" was Ark being, creepy

1.) What kind of attention do you pay to meters such as Recount during Raids?
During boss fights i don't particularly pay attention to the meters, during downtime sure but not at the expense of the moment.

2.) Please define the term "Mechanics" and explain how they relate to raids?
Mechanics is the specifics of a boss fight, such as flame patches or enrages, basically the operation of a boss and the way the fight plays out, might even extend that term to include how each role plays its part during a boss fight..what a tank must do what a healer must do what a dps must do etc.

3.) My favorite question: All Druids have a battle res, but all druids have different positions in the raid. Please explain to me the order in which you believe each of these specs(Bear, Cat, Boom, Tree) should be battle ressing, and why?

This is somewhat difficult to answer directly, i would say boom, cat , tree, bear
Why? Boomkin is dps, already usually back with the ranged its easy to get to a safe place to pop out and throw a battle res, which is why i picked boomkin before cat, cat is gonna be up close and personal doing dps he needs to back out and get safe to cast the spell to prevent the person being ressed from being hit by a random aoe or cleave or whatever that the melee are used to avoiding. Then tree, while a tree can make sure he puts freshhots on tank or whomever before poping out making it a little easier for them than a cat, i'd rather a dps back off before a healer, they are away from the boss usually and can easily get to a safe place to op a res, Tank on the otherhand should almost never pop a battle res, a fast player can quickly pop in and out however they could be one shotted by the boss because the lack of armor so if possible i would say to not have a bear battle res unless there is another tank to taunt the boss off while they perform the cast.

4.) Would you be able to keep up with theory crafting with me? I would love to have another druid(especially a boomer) which could keep up with me in this topic.
I used to theory craft my hunter all the time, i'd love to get back into it. PWA was very big on it during BC
5.) And Finally: What are you looking to get out of your experience with VoV if you get accepted?

6.) I believe Festergut and saurfang are a poor judge of a boomers true potential as mechanics for both of the fights either require moving(a boomer's bane is having to run for spores right when an eclipse happens) and Saurfang's blood beasts require us immediately doing some CC's which drops our dps substantially, while classes such as mages and warlocks and other classes don't have that luxury. Please tell me where you stand on Damage overall for Gunship and Dreamwalker? These are the two fights a boomer should be dominating.
I cant say ive done those fights really, but i can tell you any fight where i am able to stand still i would be able to put out 5.5k-6k dps with my current gear
7.) Explain to me the exact mechanics of how starfall works, and how you, as a boomer, use this skill.
Starfall is a wonderful druid talent it allows us to be a competitive dps class, without it we would not be able to compete with the other high dmg classes
it works best with mulitpul mobs bouncing off other mobs to create more damage kind of like seed of corruption on a warlock, whenever a situation where aoe is possible i would use starfall , it makes up a large portion of the damage a druid can put it, it also triggers natures grace which speeds up cast time of our spells allowing for more casting making it one of the most important boomkin spells in my opinion.

8.) Link me to pieces of gear you'd be working on getting next: Not optimal best in slot gear, but ones you feel will be the easiest reachable upgrades from what you have now with Haste cap, crit cap, and hit cap in mind.

My are of focus on my gear replacement is Trinkets, Bracers, Back, Weapon / offhand and pants
Trinket is replaced by http://www.wowhead.com/item=47213 (abyssal Rune) i havent seen it drop yet, but been trying.
Bracers: You said it drops from trash mobs. http://www.wowhead.com/item=47213 Ghostly Wrist wraps havent seen those yet either drop.
Back: http://www.wowhead.com/item=47213 Flowing Sapphiron Drape from ony 25 would be easier to get i believe.
Staff: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50273 From H Pos would be an easy upgrade, and remove the need for my offhand of course because its a staff.
legs: [Lasherweave Legplates] From Badges unless i can get into icc and get pants from there.
and of course id be looking to get teir10.5 gear and working on my setbonus


Fix what I suggested, and let me know in your responses exactly what you know about your class, and make sure if you use any sources to let me know what those are. Overall, I don't think you really know that much about your class, nor do I believe you've done your research: Maybe overall research on casters, but definately not on boomers. If you were following the old "Moonkin guide for dummies" Post on EJ, please note that it's full of old, outdated information that no longer applies.

And a side note, when i say im interesting in doing top dps i dont mean at the expense of the moment or raid, its just a consolation to provide good dps..i came off the wrong way during my original post.
