(We are interested only in your PvE gear)
Motivate shortly why you've picked your gear/gems/enchants: I tend to look up on high end guilds paladins to get an idea of what to gem, but also trying for myself. Just an example: In Naxx crit was superior to anything, in ulduar spellpower/intellect was prio, and now in ToC/Icc Int have been the best stat to socket with.

General Questions and Answers:
===================================================
Q: Why did you apply to Wipe Faster?
A: Because, after weeks of trying to get a stable 10man Hm group to raid with we gave up (me and my 3 irl mates). The reason was that we always had to look for atleast 2 new people each week as we had 8 solid members. And each time it ended with disaster when we took in 2 new.
Q: What do you expect from Wipe Faster?
A: A solid 10man raidinggroup with skilled, motivated players. Also a social/friendly guildenviroment.
Q: Why should Wipe Faster take you as member?
A: Because im experienced, relyable and rarely doing any misstakes while raiding, and always looking to the guild´s best.
Q: Do you know anyone in Wipe Faster able to guarantee and backup your application? If yes, who?
A: I dont know if either Kyle or Svik are still raiding/will raid with you, but those two are the ones I know.
Q: What do you feel should/could be changed to improve your class/spec?
A: I feel pretty satisfied as it is at the moment, but I´m really looking forward to catalysm where they will give paladins the option to raidheal more and not just getting assigned to tanks.
Q: Do you have a link to a WWS or WMO parsing that we can view, from a raid you attended?
A:
Q: Were you part of any other guild in the past? If yes, why did you leave/want to leave those?
A: Its so much information so i´ll line it up as "Vanilla", "Tbc", and "Wotlk"
Vanilla: Started off playing abit causal on my hunter, which i got to 23ish, then decided to reroll shaman. I did most of the raiding content available at the time, such as MC, BWL, ZG etc. Raiding experience stretches as far as naxx40, 2nd wing up to Thaddius.
Tbc: After tbc was released i took a few months break from the game, then started playing on a new character, my druid which is on Magtheridon EU. I raided the most of the content and got in guilds such as <Flatline> (which later on downed Kil,jaeden before the nerf patch), i also killed Brutallus before that patch. After i left Flatline due Irl issues i rerolled to emeriss to raid some casual end raiding. So i joined <The untouchables> , which i raided BT with and Swp also (after the patch tho).
Wotlk: In this expansion i decided to start a guild (Fly High) with my irl mates, when we started raiding i think we killed KT 3rd on the server along with malygos 10man. After we disbanded later on i applied to Wipe faster, which i raided ulduar and Toc 25 aswell as Toc 25Hm with.
I almost forgot Icc, i´ve killed Lich king in 10man and 10 hms (10man aswell).
Q: Have you had any high-end PvE experience in any other Massively Multiplayer Online game in the past? If yes, say where and on what.
A: Only runescape on which I did reach quite far.
Q: Do you have anything that could influence negatively your playtimes?
A: Not at the moment, unemployed and summer holiday.
Q: What kind of Internet connection do you have and what is your average MS/Ping?
A: Wireless 54mbit with around 100 ms.
Q: Did you read our Application FAQ? If no, go to read it, then come back, and write yes. Slacker.
A: Yes.
Q: Where did you see our recruitment post causing you to submit this application?
A: I read that you were reforming Wipe Faster and got talked into applying with a few mates (: (Dítaír and Lanzi)

Healer Specific Questions and Answers: | Remove this entire block if this ain't your spec
===================================================
Q: What rotation do you use to get the maximum HPS output, while consuming a reasonable amount of mana?
A: As a holy paladin the general wiew is to spam holy light, allthought that´s not my opinion. I tend to use both holy shock and flash of light, just an example why: Lets say you are raiding 10man Icc marrowgar, during bonestorm 5 people looses health, I start casting my holy light and while the cast is going i swap my target so that i can use my holy shock on the next person, same thing there, if i crit with holy shock (which I do almost everytime) I get an instant Flash of light. And it all sums up to 3 targets healed for a minimum of 10k in less that 3 seconds.
Q: Describe your different playstyles/priorities based on what kind of duty you're on (MT/OT/raid healing etc).
A: This totally depends on what fight, but let´s take Rotface Heroic, where both tanks take lots of dmg constantly, I keep my Beacon of light on the other tank while making sure the other tank doesnt drop below 80%, if i get time over OR someone in the raid is close to death i´ll immidietly swap and heal that target.
Q: What class-specific utilities do you use to make fights easier for the raid?
A: Spells like Hand of salvation, hand of sacrefice and hand of freedom aren´t seen that often by most paladins, but not for me, If i have time over i usually check the threatmeter and if there´s any chance of anyone overaggroing I´ll use my Hand of salvation. Hand of freedom is also used alot.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Q: Do you have anything to add to your application that you would like us to know? You can leave this blank.
A:This is the second time I´m applying to Wipe faster (after raiding with them, going inactive for a while and then coming back) so Im no stranger to the guild.
Thanks for taking your time and reading this, rather long, apply.
Regards Thaelnas.
