Thank you so much! I will approach fellow officers online for the induction.

Well, welcome to the app process, let's get the ball rolling.

1) Armory hasn't been updating in 3 weeks. but I'm noticing as of the 24th of August, you were at over 16% hit. You were gemming hit, and your Fabled Feather of Ji-Kun is not reforged. With hit cap being only 7.5% for dps, that's a HUGE waste of stats. Why did you go this route?

2) We have no main raids that only raid one night a week, let alone raid on Saturdays. I will be running a "Normal" (a.k.a. current flex) on saturdays in Warlords of Draenor. It will be 6pm-9pm Pacific Standard Time. Is that something with your timezone and schedule you would still be interested in?

3) Back on the gear, you have Windsong on your weapon. Seeing as Dancing Steel is without arguement the best enchant for a weapon for ret, why are you using that sub par enchant?

Otherwise, looks like a solid app. Thanks for providing some details about yourself. I look forward to your responses

Dear GM Thanks for the

Dear GM

Thanks for the reply.

On the hit % issue, as I was not actively rading since earlier this year to focus on pet battles, just played around with gemming and reforging to see how high my hit % could go. Myself is a JC hence am able to re-gem and my other L90 toons whom I created over the years could help in re-enchanting etc. Already re-gemmed and re-forged some stats.

On the raid timing 6pm-9m PST would be around 10am - 1pm SGT if I'm not wrong, I should be available as it's weekend and daytime. :-)

On weapon enchant, aye my bad, that has been corrected as I expended quite a bit of resources on enchanting wpns for all my L90 toons, was out of Sha crystals.

Thanks

The time it would be depends

The time it would be depends on Daylight Savings Time actually. Currently it would be 9am - 12pm your time.

Thanks for the quick and well answered reply. Before we move any further, I want to set proper expectations. That raid on saturday wont ever be running above "Normal" difficulty (current flex difficulty) are you okay with this?

"as of mid August I am ranked #1 in Gorganash with the highest ratings in pet collection (check warcraftpets). You will recruit me for my perserverence and knowledge in wow lore."

All sorts of nope, and we could give 2 shits less about you being ranked #1 in pet collection.

Now that that's out of my system. We do not have any progression raids that will be running on Saturdays, but we will have a "flex" (normal) raid running on Saturdays that is more for community "togetherness" and working on random Meta achievments, but thats it. So if that is all you are looking for then who knows. We'll see how the rest of your app process goes. Our GM will be getting to your app sometime today hopefully.

If I'm honest, there's a not-unreasonable chance that there's some tongue-in-cheek humor that's being lost in translation there.

This isn't a game!!
