Seems the link is showing my stats being a little lower than normal, critical being 34% and my attack power is 3005.

Playing Times
My playing times are as follows - Monday - Thursday 19:00 - 24:00, Fridays are generally my go out to the pub day. Saturday and Sunday's usually online all day.

Previous Guilds
Only ever had two guilds - Reprisals call and Mediocre Prodigies (Still in).
Pre TBC
Reprisals Call was founded Pre TBC back then i used to use my rogue (Forbidden undead) where we would tackle 10 man strat and scholo pretty much every day all day (awesome times), but after everyone getting there tier 0 we wanted to try and start raiding molten core, but with the lack of people we had, it would be near to impossible to do. Thus we decided to join two guilds and they were, Order of the Rose Croix and Clan Wulf naming our selves CROW, raiding went well, until ofcourse the summer break came, people lost interest and raids became hard to come by. And with this reprisals Call disbanded when The Burning Crusade came out and most of us including some from the other guilds joined Mediocre prodigies.
TBC
With medoicre prodigies, raiding went great Kara, SSC, TK, all cleared, and with MH 5/6 and BT going well, something horrible came, yes it was this so called 'break' again as the fears grew raids became harder to come by once again.
Wotlk
Again, still with medoicre prodigies and me now using my paladin, raiding picked up, all content cleared and sarth two Drakes down, things were starting to look up, but once ulduar hit so many seemed to have vanish and even now 10 mans seem so hard to come by now a days :(

This might of been better in personal information.

Reasons for Applying
Why am i applying here? Well wow to me is all about the raiding and who you raid with, being able to raid and share experiance with others on 1st kills ( first rag kill, wow, just wow), seeing all the new content and having a blast on the way with others.
I've picked Protectors of Chaos because of these reasons and also i know a few people that are in this guild, Zelbash being one of them and also an old raider back in TBC.


Raiding Experience - During TBC and Pre TBC i was raiding on my rogue Forbidden
Pre TBC
MC - Cleared
BWL - Up to Broodlord
AQ 20 - Up to last boss
AQ 40 - First two bosses
ZG - Cleared

TBC
SSC - Cleared
TK - Cleared
ML- Cleared
MH - 5/6
BT - Up to and cleared Teron Gorefiend
ZA - Cleared

Wotlk
Naxx 10/25 - Cleared
Sarth 10/25 - Cleared
Sarth 25 - One and two drakes Cleared.
Eye 10/25 - Cleared
Ulduar 10 man - 5/14
My future goals are to see all content, and eventually seeing arthas defeated would be awesome.

Your Role
My role - Being Dps and hitting my buttons as hard as possible and hope the one i'm hitting will lose health :)
With the Changes to retribution skills such as Seal of Blood being our main source of damage and exorcism now hitting all targets and hitting harder than divine storm (single target) and our judgements, i've started to gem differently and that being going for the Expertise gems with the change to SoB, less the boss is dodging the better for me. Also as i said with new changes most retribution paladins now a days can pick up two very nice talents Divine Sacrifice and increasing its effectiveness plus increasing our sacred shield, with this new skill i can now help the raid with a small yet effective damage redution to all, while this spell is active all damage with be redirected by 40% by all and transfered to me, with a bubble and divine sacrifice up this can definitely help out a little for raid healers or when alot of AoE damage in incoming. My spec being 0/17/54, my glyphs being Exorcism (20% damage), judgements (10% damage) and concecration (+ 2 seconds). Exorcism hitting harder than ever this glyph helps even more, with judgements hitting for less i'm actually considering changing this one for either the Seal of Blood glyph or crusader strike, consecration being great as it helps me out on longs fights that become some what mana intense.
http://guild.progamer.no/wws-25/ - Not sure if this works, this is for naxx 25.
Seems i've only got one wws for ulduar and that was when i healed.
My Ui is standard blizzard UI, with Omen and DBM. and few misc addons such as PallyPower and recount.

Edit: - Gear, there is still alot of things i need to change, one being not having so much hit, and getting my self some rings with +strength and not + agility.

Personal Information
Ok time to get personal! My name is Mark Ducker i am 19 years old and i live in the UK in a very small village in the south of wiltshire. For the time being i work at my local pub, The Black Horse as a barman, been playing wow ever since the release, four? or is it five years now? i'm hoping to become a electrical engineer at one point, already done my national diploma.
I would like to think as myself as hardworking, very upbeat and i would also like to think as my self as a very good player, i am never to shy to ask a question, and i try my best to help others the best i can. I use vent but i am not one to speak, if you want me to i suppose i can if really really needed. ;)
MMO - Played Phantasy star online, Final fantasy 11.

Thank you for your time in reading this, i'm sure i have missed alot of things if so just ask me here or /w me in game.

Hey Forbs! Nice to see you here :)
Raided a lot with your rogue and me being holy. Good times back then. Sorry to hear MP is on a break again, but back on topic.

I can see from your wws that you know how to play and your talents and glyphs are well placed. But as you say I have a problem with your hit being so high, i think i asked you the other day as well, and your choice of gems. Some gear as the Grim Toll is questionable too. You could have the darkmoon card there for example as it's bis (atm) and you can buy it.

Having seen what you can do I have no doubt that if you fix a few things you will be very competitive in dps. I don't have any bearing in the recruitment process, but I know you are a dedicated raider and a great guy to play with.

One thing I would like to ask you is are you interested in raiding only as ret or as any other spec as well? I read that you healed in Ulduar, what is your holy gear like? and if you enjoy it or not.

Heya Zelb thank you. Aye my hit is rather high, but i do have a few pieces of gear that can be changed and yes i really should invest in the deck - 90 strength is alot (+ the proc).

My healing gear is average at best just random pieces from naxx 10/25 and heroics, i believe i am around 1700 spellpower or so with that set. Got no problems being holy at all it just feels so wierd healing and not dpsing like i've been doing for so long.

Hi again. Unfortunately we'll have to decline your application as we already have loads of melee. Pity you're not a hunter!
