Aidin — Mon, 03/15/2010 - 17:42

Hello sir or madam, and welcome to the Downfall recruitment process. If you fancy a quick invite, have thin skin, or like purps over people then don't waste your time reading what follows, just press on now.  If you are a skilled player, or even a player in need of a little molding, and you have time to dedicate to dead bosses, and to a community of people that do more together then play a video game, then here's a few things for you.

Recruitment Process

Step 1 Application :
Well you've already completed this step by taking the time to complete our lengthy application.  Some think it's silly, we have documented proof that it easily weeds out the douchebags before wasting too much of our time.

Step 2 Who are you? :
Type /join dfrecruit in game.  This will put you in our global chat channel for recruits.  You'll find lots of Downfall members in that channel often shouting for people for random heroics.  This will get your name out there, let people get to know you.  The more people you get to know, the more people will begin to comment on your application, and thus keep it "alive"

Until you start to get comments from those who excel in your class, or those who have nice/not so nice things to say about you as they get to know you, it's up to YOU to keep your application active, it's not just a matter of posting and never coming back, we are a website oriented guild, get used to using it.

Step 3 Raid Tryouts : 
Raid : mAlt opens up 3 slots each Sunday for raid performance tests.  We parse these events and can see you in action before we bring you into a 25 man progession raid.  For more info on mAlt and raid times/sign ups: /raidgroup/malt

Step 4 Be There :
Be online during 25 man progression raid times, its even better if you're on from start to finish, since people will DC mid raid.  If you're apping to raid, it's a long and grueling process.  We DO need consistant skilled players for both 25 man raids, and you're not the only person trying to get that spot.  What we like to see is our apps posting on the raid events that they are available to fill in on a given night.  Then if you've posted that you're going to be on that night, make sure to shout our a reminder in dfrecruit just as raid is about to start just to let us know you're on. It may be weeks, it may be months before you see action, but you may end up with a spot the first time you join the recruit channel. 

We have TWO 25 man progression raids:
Raid : Kitten Brigade /raidgroup/kitten-brigade   Mon - Wed 6:30 - 10:00
Raid : Salmon /raidgroup/salmon   Tue - Thu  6:00 - 9:00

Well that's what you can expect for the next few weeks/months.  We've had applicants that have waited over 3 months for an invite, we've invited people within a few days, every situation is different. So get you're name out there, get some comments, and good luck to you!

Welcome

bluetouguyss — Mon, 03/15/2010 - 15:13

I will let others talk about grid and things like that.  My boomkin was my first love but is now relegated to my alt but just looking at your gear and gemming there are a few things I see.  I believe your meta should be the chaotic skyflare unless you are really in need of the extra mana but it doesnt sound like it.  The 3% extra crit is nice. 


Also you are way over hit cap by about 5% so if you can get rid of your hit trinket you would probably gain quite a bit of dps over whatever it is you are doing now. 


Gemming I guess is right as it seems most boomkins go after straight SP instead of sometimes going after socket bonuses that are nice like your one on your helm where I would swap the 23 sp for the 12 sp and 10 crit.  You would then be getting 9 sp from the bonus on top of it.  I use RAWR to figure out which is best for me at the moment.  I am sure you are already haste capped on your wraths thus why I would go after crit and SP whenever you need the socket bonus if it is worth it.


Anyway good luck with your app.  Downfall is def worth the time and effort you will be asked to put into it!!!

New gear!

Mina — Mon, 03/15/2010 - 21:02

Please check the new gear. I have the Lasherweave Shoulders which that gives me my set bonus, and the new Idol!  Will have new trinket soon. 

 

Thank you for the advise!

Hit caped

Mina — Mon, 03/15/2010 - 19:59

Yes, at the moment, that is the better of the trinkets, and the next to be replaced after I get my Teir peice that I am getting tonight for my set bonus. 

I do have grid already installed. and will use when in raids.

I apprecitate the advise on the Meta gem, I think at the time I got the gem, there wasn't  much in the way of metas on the AH on Horde side. I will take a harder look at my gems after I get my new peice of gear tonight and see if I can buy a new one.

 

Looking forwards to making friends and playing hard.
