Which addons do you consider essential and why?: 
I use quite a few. I can't live without grid (ty Garreth), and I have several others that help with my healing/raiding.
PvE
Raid Experience: 

I have completed Ulduar up to and including General on 10 man. I have also done several hard modes. I have also done Ulduar 25 up to Freya. I have completed Ony 10/25, Trial of the Crusader 10/25, and hard mode 10 through beasts.

I was the main healer in these roles. I had to know the bosses, the abilities of the raid members and healers, and of the the different classes in order to set up healing roles. I am looking forward to taking a back seat in any healing role I would be in.

I have linked my armory here: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Gorgonnash&n=Keshini

To me as someone who has no

saedo — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 12:02

To me as someone who has no idea who any of these people are, sounds like she has to work her way back in if she really wants to.    Like Grasen's example of Dangly, it took months of prodding around and effort before he changed the minds of everyone against him.    Quiting on the first day of rejections is, well not looking good.

bugs?

Minorthreat — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 10:38

Keshi was a great guildie and a great raider back when we were all in Hamfist, and I'd love to have her back in guild again.

Closer — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 06:28

I enjoyed raiding with Keshini myself and I have missed her very much.  She was always one of the top healers in raid. 


We have given some people in guild many invites back when they have left. Why does she not deserve one?  I believe that Keshini should have her second chance.   

Grasen's picture

just because some were

Grasen — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 08:57

just because some were allowed back does not entitle everyone who wants to come back a second chance.

 

Lets use Dangly as an example.    dangly spent months talking to go's and ro's to pave his way back into guild.   and while he left in an emo fassion he did not leave in a drama filled situation. 

Sargus also went emo,    but again left with little drama. 

 

That is not the case here.

 

she also states in her app that without a raid spot she wont stay,    that doesnt say to me she wants to come back for any reason other than a raid spot and progression.     She wants to "offer" herself to us like it is us who will benefit most here.    I do not see the humbleness i would expect from someone who wants "Back" into downfall.

 

" If after several weeks have gone by and it appears that you do not need me in raids, I will likely look for another guild."    this sentance here is the deal breaker for me.   my no vote stands.

 

on a side note and i'm sorry if this offends you cindy. "

We have given some people in guild many invites back when they have left." Holds no water here.     reinvites are handled on a case by case basis.

I use to spend alot of time

Closer — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 10:09

I use to spend alot of time with Keshini outside of raid.  I remember when she left and it was not just 1 reason even though that was the rumor that went around.


I do however agree you about the reason that was given for leaving guild in her app.  I can understand wanting to raid but an app would have to be patient when it comes to getting a raid spot.


There are people who have caused a big scene in guild and have gotten invites back.  I will not name any names in my post of course because it would be very rude.

Way off topic but who is

Shinzwei — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 09:28

Way off topic but who is Sargus and whats the story behind that ;) Just wanna know whats been going on in the guild since I havent been able to log in for awhile. The site is my only means of snooping around.

saugus is a young dk in guild

Grasen — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 09:41

saugus is a young dk in guild (13)     he left recientally because (and i mostly quote i think)   "we are so awesome that he plays to much.)    emo moment, but  best gquit excuse i have ever heard. 

This isnt another gearing

Shinzwei — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 10:02

This isnt another gearing them up with fat lewtz and they think they are now the shizzle bomb dizzle so they gquitz0r because another guild is interested in them due to a random member inspecting them and seeing that omgz0rizzle they haz 245/251 ilvl gear so they must be Shinzwei level good when he killed Ragnaros with a mana-regen dagger back in the day and offered them a raid spot in the super duper fat awesomeness guild but soon to realize that gear ilvl means jack shizzle and is humilated on ventrizzo by the mega internet dragonz killing guild because in reality they were carried and isnt Shinzwei level greatness so they realize its nevar greener on the side and should just stick with having mediocre skillz with a great guild like ours carrying your sorry ass so that you have an opportunity to see what the highest of end game content has to offer...<---Prim's infamous triple periods ;)


I think we've dealt with these situations before. Nothing new here.

I'm a big supporter of 2nd

Aidin — Wed, 12/16/2009 - 08:51

I'm a big supporter of 2nd chances, but we all know the greif and hazing we dish out before and even after a re-invite.  Each person that was given a chance to come back, put forth quite a bit of effort to smooth over the hard feelings.  No, not everyone's mind can be changed about each one...but the attempt to fix that which broke, and understanding that some mud may get slung and being ready to clean it off and dust off the bad to get back to the good is necessary.  It's all in the effort that Kesh is willing / not willing to put forth...totally her call.

Aw Shihli, when I got online and chatted with you last night, I was trying to see if you would have any problem with me checking into joining before I applied. 

Anywho's, I understand your reservation. 

It was nice chatting with everyone, and I hope to see you all around.  Watch out for the horde shammy running around after you!

My Advice: Spec:

Desteran — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 14:10

My Advice:


Spec: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#hZ0xxhZxbIuIeoxkrIRt:qL0 or drop the 2 pts in improved ankh for another 2 in Tidal focus depening on if you die alot or have mana problems here and there :-D Healing way is very worth it, especially if you macro Healing Wave w/ Tidal Force and have Tidal Waves up for a nice fat quick heal. 


Swap out your int gems for haste. I realize you said you tank heal alot which a shaman can be adequete at but if/when you get your invite you'll probably be called on to raid heal more often than not where haste is going to surpass int as far as stat weights are concerned. Also consider swapping out a glyph for CH.


Other than that good gear. I'd put a SP enchant on your bracers and enchant your chest w/ mp5 or 10stats, whichever you prefer.

Gear

Keshini — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 14:15

I've been out for a couple of months and was checking out EJ last night.  I already made changes on my gear by adding haste (they used to say int/crit, now it's back to haste).  I also changed some of my talent pts (you can see them on my armory link), but I will look into moving out the imp ankh.  I also saw that on the suggested build on EJ.  For the glyph, that would depend on what role you would like me to play.  As you likely have plenty of pallies, the CH glyph for better raid heals would work.  Unfortunately, in my last guild we had no pallies, so I fulfilled the tank healing role.  I'm always willing to change things up!

Thank you for the advice!

45 static + heal isnt worth 3

Desteran — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 17:16

45 static + heal isnt worth 3 pts imo. But to each their own.

"What things might cause you

Shinzwei — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 13:43

"What things might cause you to leave?: 

If my addition causes too much negativity and disruption, I'll leave. If after several weeks have gone by and it appears that you do not need me in raids, I will likely look for another guild. However, I will discuss this with you first."
 
I understand that you love to raid and who are we to stop you from leaving us again if you dont get a raid spot but what are your intentions? Rejoining us and be apart of our family/community and when the opportunity arise you will get a shot at a raid spot. It may take weeks or months. Or is the sole purpose of this application is to experience the best of what high end game raiding has to offer.

Raiding

Keshini — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 14:37

I could have said, no, I will wait forever until I can raid with you!  But that would have been a lie that many others put in just so they can say what you want to hear. If you decide not to put me to the test for several weeks, to me that would say that you really don't want me in guild or raid.  In order to insure that I am not misunderstanding intentions, I would talk to Garreth or the officers first.

I understand how it is to have a large guild and not be able to get people into raids for a while.  Others have joined before me and derserve their shot. I just want to be sure that any lack of opportunity is due to too many healers and not enough slots and not history. That's all.

/hugs

Herm, garreth and aidin both

Dragon — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 11:44

Herm, garreth and aidin both say that she is a good healer and she is a college professor. But here is my question, do you PW:S crazy dps warriors and ret paladins known for taking damage in raid?

Oh and do you mind guildies asking you political science questions as they work towards their minors?

The answer to your question

garreth — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 11:46

The answer to your question is "No". Because she's a shammy.

Dragon — Tue, 12/15/2009 - 12:23

Herm, rephrase. Will you make sure to bounce chain heals off your suicidal dps warriors and ret paladins?
