General questions

Previous guilds and reasons for leaving?
Remember this can checked
TBC:
<Hate> horde on Zenedar - left because the guild got absorbed into now called <JATO>. Decided to transfer rather than going with them
<Cold Logic> horde on anachronus - good guild full of good players but just wern't my type of people. Decided to quit the game so left them then
WoTLK:
<Sect> Alliance on Tarren Mill - Leaving due to the attitude of a large group of members, including some officers. Wern't dedicated enough to bother putting effort into things like Sarth3D and lots of people constantly let down others by not turning up with flasks, food etc or not turning up at all.


What role do you feel you provide in a raid and what areas of strengths do you feel your class and spec has over others?
Well resto druids pretty simple. HOTs are obviously our strength and we can heal a lot of different people quickly so this lends well to raid healing although it's not like we don't heal tanks. We can basically do anything but we're pretty weak tank healers in comparison to Paladins/Priests.

As for my spec I've gone 18/0/53. I've gone 18 into balance in order to get the 3% haste as it gets me closer to the 10% haste I am aiming for. The resto tree points are fairly standard ones, but saying this I haven't respec'd since the nourish buff and should probably consider putting some points into improving it. I'm still undecided with regards to how good nourish is but now it is effected by wild growth I feel like I should be using it a lot more than I previously did, especially considering I have the 4 set tier bonus which buffs it even more.


What 1 thing would you change about your class if you could?
Better looking treeform tbh. I really enjoy playing my druid in PvE and there's not much spell-wise I would change. I guess I wish I could see 20k crit heals like paladins but meh, I'm not too fussed about that



What do you think you can add to Eternals?
I was a healing leader(along with Seaneh) in my previous guild as well as class leader so I like to think I'm a fairly good druid and healer. I read about my class as much as time permits and am always looking to better myself. I'm determined to get server firsts and don't mind sitting there for hours upon hours wiping to help the guild(like I did for Sarth3D in previous guild). I have 100% raid attendance for <Sect> and hopefully I will get the chance to continue that with Eternals. I'm pretty serious about gaming and have been doing it for 5 years now in some form or another and have no problem giving hours of my time in order to better myself or my guild/team.



What do you think Eternals can do for you?
well I think it can give me the raiding environment I want, where everyone is determined for the kill and will sit there for hours just for 1 kill. I don't particularly care about gear I am just determined to see and clear all of the encounters WoTLK has to offer and get as many server firsts as possible along the way; Eternals offer this.



Personal infomation; Name, age, where you live, interests/hobbies, Job and family that will nag you to stop raiding?
My name is Michael and I live in England. I am currently in my last year of an IT college course that I don't particularly enjoy. My main hobbies are WoW, going out with friends at the weekend, watching football and playing a bit of CSS every now and then. I currently live with just my mum and she's used to me sitting on my computer for hours on end and won't give me any grief about raiding



Additional information which you would like to name?
I guess this is where I should put it. I understand Rolo has already spoken to someone in your guild about us applying but I will add it anyway. I know Rolo and Seaneh(who have also applied or will be applying) and have known them for a long time, we share the same goals when it comes to games and I think we work pretty well together. I would like to carry on raiding with them if it is possible, which is why we have all applied together at the same time.

Accepted, just understand the competition for druid spaces is very high at the moment.
