General Questions

Which days are you available for organized guild events? (Raids, RBGs, etc):

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

Saturday

Sunday

Upload UI:

Which addons do you consider essential and why?:

I love mods! I don't want to say the more the merrier because your screen can get messy, but I love them. I don't think I'd raid without Deadly Boss Mods or Omen.

PvE

Raid Experience:

I haven't been playing terribly long and I hit 70 the day before Wrath came out, so unlike many others, I do not have much experience in the classic and BC raids. I recently ran Molten Core with a few guildies and pugged a Mount Hyjal run. As far as Wrath content, I have completed Naxxramas 10 and 25 man, Obsidian Sanctum 10 and 25 man, and Eye of Eternity 10 man. I have run 10 man Ulduar with a group in my guild and we have downed Flame Leviathan, Razorscale, XT, Kologarn, Auriaya, Hodir, and Freya. We have gotten to phase 4 on Mimiron, but not downed him. In 25 man Ulduar, we have downed Flame Leviathan, Razorscale, XT, and Kologarn. In all of these raids, my role was to output damage and use any special abilities to make the raid more successful.

Personal

What timezone are you in?:

I live in Texas.

Tell us a little about yourself.:

I am the oldest of 6 children, 3 of which are half siblings and very young. I like meeting new people and going to visit new places. I am an accountant. I have a cute little Chihuahua named Lil' Bit! I love to laugh!

No way!!! I'm in the Addison

PoTink — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 12:53

No way!!! I'm in the Addison area. It's "technically" D-town, but I'm basically a two minute drive from downtown Addison, so I say Addison so peeps know where I am. :-D

That's awesome! I go over to the Mesquite area to watch my girls play some Roller Derby. If you guys ever go, holla at me! I <3 roller derby bouts.

LoL...I work on the

Aidin — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 13:30

LoL...I work on the Carrolton/Addision border right near the airport! We haven't been to a derby yet, I have a friend that goes often to see her friend...but my daughter would get a huge kick out of it.

PoTink — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 13:48

In fact...the last bout of the season is this Saturday. My friend is on The Deadly Kennedys. Check it out here - http://acderby.com/cms/ - and hit me up if you guys end up wanting to go.

This is the kindest way a

Kwondre — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 12:20

This is the kindest way a girl has ever rejected me...

Aww nuuuuu! Not rejected!

PoTink — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 12:29

Aww nuuuuu! Not rejected! I'll try to make it home, I promise! There's just no guarantee, so I didn't want to sign up and then be late and throw you guys off. That would be tool-ish of me. :-S

Anywho, I haven't tried it on 10 man, but I did get in a 25 man group that kept getting to phase 3 on the beasts, but couldn't seem to get the strafing thing together. :(

I vote automatic g-invite

Karli — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 13:42

I vote automatic g-invite solely based on the name of her druid alt.

Women with sense of humor + Downfall = win.

And again of course I'm biased because she's the same age as me.

xD /highfive! Yeah I do

PoTink — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 14:21

xD /highfive! Yeah I do joke around a bit and I just had to have that name because of this comedian I heard once that kept saying it and I couldn't quit laughing. :P

Were you the one that i had a

Felsteel — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 12:16

Were you the one that i had a random chat with at one of the banks in Dal?

C'est possible. I think I

PoTink — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 12:29

C'est possible. I think I may have chatted with you a few different times, but I can't be certain. I'm a talker and when I see a rogue in a guild that I know is good, I tend to ask a few questions so that I can learn more and try to un-newb myself. xD

Hopefully it was a good conversation if it was me.

I think we were talking about

Felsteel — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 12:58

I think we were talking about specs, chants and weapon speeds. Over all nice person and had a good grasp on the class in general. Assuming this is the right person. I will confirm later tonight.

Other wise, Hit up our dfrecruit channel. Talk with us and look for some of our raids that might be in need of some dps. Good Luck.

Sweet, I will do that!

PoTink — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 14:19

Sweet, I will do that! Thanks Felsteel! :D

Excellent Rogue

Roronek — Sun, 08/09/2009 - 13:30

I have played with Potink for a very long time and can vouch for her attitude, she is an awesome player overall, does great damage in a raid, knows her class fairly well, and overall is an asset to any raid group she is in.

Friends with Roronek, -100 dkp

...I kid I kid...but if he ever tells you to tricks of the trade the frogger bomb guys before mimron cause "it'll be funny!"....don't listen to him.

GL with your app tink!

I am still LOLing at that!

PoTink — Tue, 08/11/2009 - 08:14

I am still LOLing at that! Roro does like to joke sometimes. He makes me laugh though, so I'll keep him. :P

And thanks Aidin! :D

:D I <3 Roro!

PoTink — Mon, 08/10/2009 - 14:49

:D I <3 Roro!

You reps seem to be in

saedo — Sat, 08/08/2009 - 09:30

You reps seem to be in order.

The adrenaline rush glyph is a bit lackluster. Should replace with a better one.

Gear wise

You have far too many blue gems. 4 in total. They're the worst gems for dps so you only want 1 to fulfill meta gem bonus. Socket bonuses with blue slots are generally not worth getting.
Calamity's Grasp, hate you! But it has mongoose on it, while OH has berserking. It should be at least the other way around. Or rather, both be berserking. It's the better enchant and procs more off MH.
Gloves should be Crusher enchant, 44 AP
Your pants has a agi/haste gem. Not good, at least copy what's in the gloves, agi/crit
Greatness card, good!

Thank you for the tips

PoTink — Sat, 08/08/2009 - 12:10

Thank you for the tips Saedo. I have changed the enchants and switched the gems on the pants out for the agility gems. I appreciate the help!

2 more blue gems to get rid

saedo — Sat, 08/08/2009 - 12:21

2 more blue gems to get rid of.

And a glyph to change. Would you know what it'd change to?

Ah yes, I missed those last 2

PoTink — Sat, 08/08/2009 - 13:28

Ah yes, I missed those last 2 gems didn't I? Ok, changed now. I believe I do. I changed it out with the Glyph of Rupture. Thanks again and my apologies for missing those the first time.

Looks good. One more thing

saedo — Sun, 08/09/2009 - 17:47

Looks good.

One more thing you might want to look into. A [Nightmare Tear] or [Enchanted Tear]. Those are better than [Balanced Twilight Opal] for a blue gem, and fulfills meta requirements quite nicely.

Yeah I realized that after I

PoTink — Sun, 08/09/2009 - 17:53

Yeah I realized that after I replaced that other Enchanted Tear. I said, "doh why'd I do that?" But then I thought about it and I am going to have my 8.5 helm after a few more heroics runs so I'll be getting new gems anyway. That's why I haven't replaced that one, but I can go ahead and do that now. Thanks again!
