Class: Fire Mage
Race: Human
Level at time of application: 70
Played Time on your character: 42 dats
Do you have a stable internet connection (Yes/No and average MS in raids): Mostly it is pretty stable, recent patches like zombies can make it unstable in cities!
How soon after release are you aiming to be level 80 and how are you going to achieve this? (I.E. booked a week off work, cleared your evening commitments for 2 weeks, out of work)
All depends on University workload, as soon as possible hopefully, but dont want to jeapordise my degree etc!
What other characters will you level to 80?
--I have a Shaman at level 70, resto, and will try level him sometime after the mage. Not quite sure when though!

General questions
Previous guilds and reasons for leaving?
Remember this can checked
-- Ressurection - Raid times were too late
-- EqualizerZ - Incapable of effective raiding
-- Fusion - Got passed over too many times for raids in favour of people far less geared
What role do you feel you provide in a raid and what areas of strengths do you feel your class and spec has over others?
-- I feel that a fire mage provides a bonus to the entire raid, with the change to improved scorch we can now buff the targets for all spellcasters to receive +10% crit chance which can definitely help against bosses with an enrage timer. I think that Fire Mages are good instant and dot casters and are fully capable of providing enough dmg against bosses to take them down within time limits/constraints.
In WotLK; what changes will you make to your spec and how do you feel the talent changes in WotLK will affect you most?
-- ATM I am unsure as to how I will change my spec etc with the expansion, although ive seen the potential talent trees on respective sites I dont think you truly get to know them and understand them until you have played them for a little while to figue out all the intricacies. However I am open to advice on how to better my character/class as people see fit and willing to play around with talent specs etc to find the right build to maintain a high dps for the raid as a whole.
Name 1 thing you feel has been changed negatively regarding your class in the expansion? (if you can't then say why you can't)
-- With the change to the frost talent tree it now requires more talent points spent in frost tree to get the additional 3% hit chance, where as it only used to take 3 talent points it now takes 8 which detracts from the bonuses of the fire tree a bit too much.
What do you think you can add to Eternals?
-- I am very flexible as a person and usually prepare for a raid about and hour in advance and have my character at the designated point with potions etc to buff myself already in my inventory. I am always available to help out in instances etc (when im online) and am very helpful when it comes to providing profession specific items to guild (always for free)
What do you think Eternals can do for you?
-- I think that Eternals can finally provide me with a guild that is both social as well as capable of raiding high level content. Not only that but provide me with security as a current and ongoing guild that is very personable in the community as a whole!
Personal infomation; Name, age, where you live, interests/hobbies, Job and family that will nag you to stop raiding?
--My names Nick, Im 21 (almost 22) Im currently living at University in England
-- My main hobby is my Kempo Ju Jitsu club at university, I occassionally attend the gym (when i feel bad for drinking too much at socials) an spend some time with St John Ambulance, WoW is my escape from reality time!
-- I'm a student so I dont have a job, and i live at uni so no ppl to pester me really!
Additional information which you would like to name?
-- N/A
