I am attuned to these Raid Instances:
Seeing as I am post-TBC release, and attunements have gone out the window I would have to say everything in TBC including Kara.
I have been working on the title Champion of the Naaru for fun though

Former experience in end game raiding:
Karazhan, Gruul, Magtheridon, Zul'Aman, SSC (2 bosses)

My previous guilds in WoW:
SotD (Sanctum of the Dutchman);
NBC (Natural Born Chillers);
Bloodlust;
IW (Iron Wind);
Assasins.

My reasons for leaving those guilds:
SotD: when I just started out leveling my Paladin I joined this group of people from my own country. They were for the most part a fun guild with no real intentions of raiding at the time, so I left when I hit 70.

NBC: I joined the second I hit 70, they wanted to raid and were looking for all kinds of peeps to fill their ranks. In the end we never did get enough people on raid days and the guild more or less dissolved after a couple of months.

Bloodlust: I joined this guild after being promised a spot in the Alt section so I could gear up in Kara/ZA. It never came to pass seeing as the guy making the promises didnt consult with the Classleader or the Guildleader. I joined and left a day later because of this.

IW: Another fine guild to join at the time cause they were just going to raid SSC/TK and had Kara/ZA on farm. I did several runs with them in Kara/ZA which landed the shoulders, gloves and shield I still use today. In the end the guild went into the summer break and not a whole lot of raids were going on except for the core members and the farm runs came to an halt. Again I moved out for my eternal search for a guild that would finaly get me to gear up proper.

Assasins: Seeing as these guys were just starting to scratch on the door of SSC/TK they seemed the proper ticket for me. Although that scratching on the door proved to be a one time deal. They were stuck in Gruul/Maggy not getting the people to run even these raids. It was NBC all over again so I started to look at another guild again.

I have been doing a lot HC runs, more or less knowing all instances like the back of my hand. The Badges from those runs helped me gear up in the end which resulted in the Be.Imba seal of approval I have today

Reasons of wanting to join:
I was hoping to join a Guild that would let me see the inside of all the Raid instances in Outland like SSC/TK etc. As WotLK is incoming this november I started to realize that it will never happen with the guild I am in now and I decided that I at least wanted to see BT/MH/Sunwell.
Excession is one of the few Guilds left that is in that particular raid moment so you are the natural choice for me to apply with.
That and the fact I have come to know several of you guys ingame during my leveling and hc runs

My raiding availability:
At the moment I am availible on most evenings, I dont have some fixed thing during weekdays that prohibit my participation in raiding. Weekends are subject to change but when I sign up for a raid I will be there.

People in Excession I met in-game:
I know Korgash from his Alt Imovable back in the day we were both leveling them up. I think I did most of my leveling up with him.
Mayhemlord and I have been doing some HC's lately including a fast Kara the previous week. He knows my healing style by now and could possibly share his opinion on me when it comes down to that
I also know Walonia from NBC I think it was. I think we also did some HC runs together when I was heavily into organizing them during the week.
Gorgontus I know from Assasins, the couple of raids we did toegther were pretty ok, his Totems kept the Mana love coming
I think I know a couple of more guys from HC runs but they dont come to mind right now.

Activities in order of preference:

• PvE
• Crafting/Harvesting
• PvP

Are you willing to farm consumables/instances for the guild :
Yes. Part of my daily routine consists of Nether Residue Daily Q which I get from Herbing. I also do the Daily Fishing Q and the Sha'tari Skyguard bomb run which I combine with fishing. I have stocks of Crawdads, Golden Darters, etc.
Running Farms on Kara/ZA etc is ok with me when we cannot raid the SSC/TK & BT/MH instances.

Are you willing to respec for the raids:
Yes, if there is a real need for it. I am specced PvE Healer at the moment with the Improved Blessing of Might so I can offer all buffs to Raid.

Age:
35

Name and nationality:
Tim and I am Dutch, you know the party people from Holland/Netherlands

About me:
I like to join up with you guys so I can have Mayhemlord shit his pants more often when I am healing him, usually when he only has 10% health left

nice app. nice gear... gl

I have been doing some HC's with him, nice healer.

go go badge ring


p.s. tinuviel my alt

y as you mentioned in your application. and we know each other ingame. and nothing wrong with your healing
i think we in this guild could use a good pala healer more.
there is just one thing that worries me a little. that is that there is only experience upto the first 2 bosses in SSC
but well you wont be the only that have joined with not as much experience
and i know you catch up quick on things and ofc are willing to study the fights BEFORE going there
so i have to give this application a yes

Txs for the support so far guys.

I have enough Badges for Anveena's Touch , but I was holding of for that atm and trying to save up for Gavel of Naaru Blessing

Yeah I was planning on doing just that Mayhem, reading about Raid Bosses before I meet them. Been doing that during breaks the past couple of weeks anyways

nice application. also nothing wrong with gear and enchants. but our paladin officer will decide and reply to application soon i guess!

The only thing my build is lacking atm is more Spell Crit. I have 2 Merciless items with Gems (Head & Shoulders) which add another 2% Scrit. I just wear this stuff cause it looks more seXeh

wrong socket in pants, 10 haste>10 int
wrong enchant on chest, 6 mp5>6 stat
u have low mp5
and 1 point in blessed life is better than toughness

10 Int gem was availible, Haste wasnt. Nothing wrong there. Plus 10 haste isnt that much if you dont have other gear to give haste as well imo. In the endraiding Haste could become an option, depends on what kind of build I will be going for Haste (HL build) or FoL spam build

Mp5, I havent been in the really long fights in SSC/TK etc to notice mana regen becoming a problem. The +6 stats enchant has been ok so far, but I will change it when I get involved in the longer Boss fights.

Overall Mp5 is low because I dont have Tier Set items which usually double out in crit & mp5. The reason for this has been the crappy guilds that never managed to get in the higher raids. Raiding up will give me a shot at Lightbringer items for example. For now I have bought most high end stuff with Badges.

The 1 point in toughness was more of an oversight, I had to respec quickly one time and I have had it in there ever since. You are right though in pointing that out. Gonna change that later on this weekend, because it looks weird

well i did notice u have 0 haste... a little bit of haste will mean alot to u

getting http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28190 would be nice
rolling enchanting for http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=27926 instead herbalism
nerfing some healing sockets and getting more crit/mp5 (pants 22 heal into 11 heal 2mp5/5int, head aswell)
get this aswell: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33502
and change rings+shoulder+mace asap

every suggestion you made is ok except the enchanting one don't be too hard on him lol.
