Name: Joan

Age: 23

Character Information:

I play a Holy Paladin, Teacups, and have been playing one since the start of Catalysm.  My main was an Unholy DK, but I created my paladin way before to try healing, and that was how i leveled my paladin from 40 - 80, solely by doing random dungeons and healing.  When cata hit, Unholy DKs were nerfed, and I had to try dual wield unholy, which for some reason I couldn't get the hang of, and so I decided to make my paladin my main and gear her as I really enjoyed healing and the guild needed healers at that point in time.  I still love healing, so despite DW unholy never happening ever again, my pally remains my main.

Professions: Mining and Engineering.  I decided to pick engineering for the cogwheels and craftable head, as well as insta-repair bot when needed. 

Talents: 32/5/4

I have a point in Enlightened Judgements due to the hit it gives and the extra range it gives judgement.  I also have 1 point in Improved Judgement for the extra range as well.  It really helps mana regeneration, which is why I put the points there, to improve the range at which I can cast Judgement.

I also heal a lot with Holy Shock and Word of Glory, thus, the 2 points in Eternal Glory as the chance is quite high that the holy power isn't used up, allowing me to give an instant 20k heal twice, should it proc. 

My talents aren't set in stone; I'm willing to change my talents etc, should I get feedback about my healing or that I need to seriously heal moar.

Notable Alts:

Like I had mentioned before, my main was an Unholy DK, Sylesteris, 85 and still gearing a little.  Her professions are Alchemy and Herbalism.

I also have a level 68 druid Teatree, on alliance side, which I enjoy playing from time to time, to experience the alliance side of questing.


What are your current/past guilds and the reasons you left them?

I was in CnA Diamonds, which was a leveling guild where raiding never took off. I wanted to try raiding, so I left. 

I then applied to and joined Just a Fleshwound, as a social member initially as I hadn't much raiding experience then and was really nervous about my "skill".   I still am in it now, but I wish to leave as I would like to try 25man raiding.  I've informed the guild leader about my application to Awesome Grats, so I will be parting with them on good terms. 


Why are you interested in joining Awesome Grats?

I'm well aware that Awesome Grats is an active and quality guild and 25man raiding is something I've enjoyed in ICC but never got to fully experience as a full-guild-only run.  I've seen many of you around, and though I only know 1 person in the guild currently, Caelle (not even that well, i met her pretty randomly) you all seem friendly, nice… and maybe way more hardcore than I ever will be, but I hope you won't mind having me in the guild.  I enjoy making new friends. Smiley  I thank you for your time either way. 

Raiding experience (this can be any and all raiding experience you've had from release up to present):

I have only raided in end-WotLK till present, so my raiding experience is as follows:

Wotlk:
10-man
ICC normal - 12/12
ICC heroic - 5/12

25-man
ICC normal - 6/12

(not counting all the runs with level 85 gear.)

Cataclysm:
BoT - 3/4 (prior nerf)
BwD - 5/6 (prior nerf)
Firelands normal - 2/7


Which days are you usually available to raid?
Most days from 8pm to 11/11.30pm, except in the weekend.  I am aware you raid on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and can raid on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Though that said, this depends on my workload I have at school.


Do you use an authenticator with your battle.net account? (If not, say why)


Yes, i do.


Other info about yourself:

I've been playing wow for about 5 years now, I first started on Alexstrasza US as I'm from Singapore, but I then moved to the Netherlands and so started on Bloodhoof EU as my boyfriend has his main characters on this realm. His characters are in Nomads, but he now plays on Hellfire with a friend. 

It took me a really long time to get a character to max level about 3 years (yes, i give new meaning to epic slow), and it was only with my DK that I took to max level with WotLK.  This was due to the fact that I didn't play other classes, only had played rogues (2 rogues, one with US realms and another when I started on EU) and I took many extended breaks due to school.  I've not taken a break since I've reached max level however, as I enjoy raiding and end-game fun and generally rotting in orgrimmar and chatting.

I am a 4th year student in college and will graduate next year in July with a degree in communications.  I also have a 3 year old daughter and i prioritise school and my family over WoW.  I can raid most nights, unless I need to get up exceptionally early or I have a ton of assignments due… which might happen quite a bit as I'm in my final year.

Thank you for reading my application Smiley

Hi teacups!
Happy to see you apply, though it came as a surprise!

Little minor things I noticed:

Reforging your boots Mastery -> Haste would give you 59 more haste rating.
Reforging your legs would be preferable too Crit -> Haste

About the enchant on your bracers, imo it's better to have the +50 intellect enchant but I can understand it's a bit harder to come by with the maelstrom crystals it requires.

Talents: This is more a matter of preference, but I would suggest you put only 1 point in Last Word and use it for Improved Judgement as it gives you another 10 yards additional range.

Apart from those minor things, I would say it all looks good! I'll let our resident Holy Paladin take the lead from here ^^

Good luck on the application! I'm sure you will get an official officer's reply very soon.

You know that feeling you get sometimes when you're standing in a high place, the sudden urge to jump?

I don't have it.

Hey Caelle Smiley

Thanks for the reply and advice, i'll definitely look into the reforges of my boots + legs and the enchantment on my braces when i've gotten a hold of the mats needed. 

Will chat with you ingame soon and thank you for the luck!!

Hi and thanks for your interest in Awesome Grats. I an sorry you have not received an officer reply until now. I am quite busy IRL at the moment and don't have much time for WoW outside our raids. We are currently low on healers in general so a skilled holy paladin would definitely be an asset to the raid force. I have opened an internal discussion thread regarding your application. I am personally not very skilled with paladins (I date back to the time when horde had shamans and paladins were alliance only...) and therefore I hope Fellcore will give some class specific input.

Awesome Grats are not known to be lightning fast when it comes to handling applications. We do take some time to assess applications. Usually the process takes about a week so please have patience with us. We have read it and will get back to you.

Feel free to PM me or Funder or catch us in game should you have any questions regarding the guild.

Hi again,

I forgot to ask you about your available raiding hours. We raid Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 20.00-24.00. Sometimes we end the raid earlier, but we count on everyone to be available until midnight. You wrote in your application that you are available until 23-23.30. This might be an issue. Is it possible for you to raid until midnight?

Hi Brill,

Thanks for the reply.  It's okay, I understand that assessing applications takes time.  Yes, I'm able to raid till midnight. Smiley

Hai there Teacups!

Unfortunately we cannot offer you a trial position in Awesome Grats at the moment.

If you have any question, do not hesitate to contact any of the officers!
