RIOT Application:
Name: Jared Stewart
RL Age: 19
Class and Spec, Are you willing to change specs for specific fights?: I have been on and off with my warriors specs a lot for Cataclysm, I love DPS but i love tanking kinda hard to chose between the 2 but I am currently Tank MS now as of the other night
And yes if i need to swap specs I am 100% ok with it.
Professions, why did you choose these professions?: I am currently Engineering and Mining, I know there not the best choices but i found at the time with the new Expansion Engineering was good for the helm helm, as well as Rocket boost and the glove tinker.

Previous Raiding Experience, please be very detailed:
***I started playing WoTLK but didn't start hardcore raiding until Cataclysm came out. At that point I did all T11 with a couple heroics but later went back and did them in FL with Soylent Green. For T12 I cleared everything on Normal and everything on Heroic BUT Rag but again later went back and did it. For Dragon Soul I cleared all normals the first day and Morchok, Zon'Ozz and Yor'sahj the next couple weeks with no debuffs. After The Grass Is greener broke up i started going Casual and just doing heroics as i went. And as you know just finally cleared the 2 bosses.
Previous Guilds (why did you leave?):
***My first ever guild i was in was Amalgamation but when Cataclysm hit they were not really making an effort to progress so i moved on and looked for a more hardcore guild. That's when i join Aeternus During T11 was with them till they broke up. At that point i then went to Soylent Green Is People. Was with them until about halfway through Firelands I left because I was hearing rumors of them splitting up cause of poor raiding leading so that's when I went and joined The Grass Is Greener, I was with them until they to broke up about a quarter way through DS heroic progression. That's when I moved servers with a couple of the guys from there to Baelgun Alliance with my Shaman to Crisp raided with them until i stopped playing and took a couple month break...Now here i am hoping to start a new chapter in my raiding life with Ríot!
Do you know any current Riot members that would vouch for you?:
***I don't know if this counts but I have been recently pvping with Smokinnpokin, and Moo and seems like we are friends and getting along
. And I know Nuvo hasn't been in for very long but i seem to be his #2 Dk US.
Availability (7:30pm - 11:59pm Tues/Weds/Thurs), can you make all of these days and times? If need be can you make additional days and times with sufficient notice[during progression for example]:
***Yes, don't have work or school at the moment so im down and open for any raid days.
Rough description of your system[CPU/RAM/Graphics Card]:
**Pentium(R) Duel-Core CPU E5300 2.60 GHz
**8 GB of Ram
**Graphics Card: EVGA GTX 560

Do you have a working mic, are you mic shy?
***Yes, I do have a working mic and are not mic but if im not raiding leading i tend to stay quite unless I need to call something out of notify someone about anything.
Why Riot?:
***I am applying to Ríot because, I have known a couple of the guys in the guild for awhile now and I was offered a spot before on my Shaman but things were already set up for the realm transfer so I kindly declined. And now im back and nothing stopping me from joining you guys to future Realm 1st's.
If you arena what is your average arena rating?
***I arena sometimes but not seriously I have 2 teams I haven't deleted cause I have liked what i have gotten up to its nothing big but ones 1456 and the other is 1422.
How do you prepare for a new encounter? What online resources do you use besides Tankspot to prep yourself for raid night?
***A couple ways i prepare for new content and new fights is I look up fights on Tankspot, Fatboss raid guides, as well as use Icy-veins and LearntoRaid guides.
Link your most recent logs showing your DPS/HPS on a few fights?
***Im applying for tank but if you wanna see my DPS for future reference here it is.

What mods do you use? Why do you use these mods?
*DBM- For obvious reasons to know when things are gonna happpen
*Recount- For damage/healing meters
*Grid- My choice of raid frames
*Doom Cooldown Pulse- To know when CDs pop up without looking around my bars.
*ExtraCD- Shows my ICDs of my gear/ability's
*GTFO- to yell at me when im standing in the bad stuff.
*MiksScrollingBattle text- My scrolling battle text, to also see when CDs come up and see my damage.
*Omen-To show me where I am on threat meters
*Tidy plates-Mainly for tanking and seeing what I don't have aggro on.
*Xperl Unit Frames- Just so i can customize where my targets and my portrait is.
*Bartender- So I can use as many bars as I can and put them where I like them.
The guild is working on downing a new boss, you have 90% attendance, then all of a sudden the raid leader cuts you from the raid because he wants to try out a certain raid composition. How would you react?
***I would be totally ok with it. Im there to help down raid bosses and have fun progressing with the guild. Whatever works best for the guild im behind that decision.
What do you do to prevent yourself from dying to mechanics like Void Zones, Brain Links, or Legion Flame? And take this question very seriously. Many of the hardest encounters in this game require you to stick to your rotation while keeping mobile. "LOL I DUNNO I MOVE OUT OF THEM" is not an answer.
***Well i have DBM of course, I also have GTFO which has helped my awareness quite a bit and has improved my play style significantly.
But to get out of those things i have a couple ability's, I have Charge if its off CD and i can target something, I have Heroic Leap if i cant target anything and I have my Intervene macro ready for emergency's
Post a picture of your UI (even better, post a pic of your UI with recount showing your DPS/Heal meter). Give us a brief explanation of your UI, do you set up your UI so that it makes it easier for you to notice encounter debuffs, or void zones, or fire?
