Saphrica - (I go by Mal in game)

Hey gang,

Looking for a home on Proudmoore. I'm one of Grealt's friends and ex-teammates (also a game developer @ Amazon).

I have a problem with alts. My 120s include:

  • Prot Pally (A)
  • Afflic Warlock (H)
  • Prot Warrior (H)
  • Holy Priest (H)
  • Havoc DH (H)
  • Frost DK (H)

I'd be joining with my Pally, Saphrica. I'm hoping to get some time doing mythics / raids with you guys. I've played since the Beta, but I've taken breaks during the end of LK, end of Cata, and all of Warlords. My original guild was focused on PVP before battlegrounds (Mannoroth represent!), but I'm casual when it comes to PvP now. I'm mostly looking for PvE.

Weakness: Playing the auction house. I've hit gold cap on my horde server and started playing the AH on Proudmoore. I try to make as much as I can with only investing about 20 mins a day into the AH. I still have no idea why it's so fun for me.

Favorite Game Moment: Figuring out the puzzles in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. That game has non-punishing gameplay, so the challenge isn't about mechanics. Each one of the boss fights ended up being a WTF game moment when I finally figured out how to beat them.
Favorite Wow Moment: Toss up between open world PvP griefing in Vanilla (preventing other guilds from getting into MC, starting giant 30 v 30 brawls in Plaguelands, etc), and Season 4 arena (2s) as a Lock + Warrior.

OMG we have a website?!

OMG we have a website?!

Hey Saphrica, I think people forget we have a website. Unfortunately, our GM is out on vacation or something for the next week, but I'll poke another officer tomorrow to get back to you officially.

We're all full on tanks though (we have a really good panda tank and a pally tank who sucks more at every other class/spec), so would you be willing to play another class or spec? We /really/ need more plate wearers, because I'm tired of not being able to steal loot from other players. Oh wait, I meant, we could totally use a holy or ret pally, because we only have one pally in the guild and that's the crappy tank I mentioned earlier.

As for your weakness, is this something you offer as a service? For example, we invest 100K with you and you give us back 200K after your service fee?

Response from GM

Hey Saphrica:

I am the GM that Sanz mentioned. I was out of town collecting my child from college. Sorry for the delay in responding. Most of what Sanz said (him being the pally that he kept referencing) is true. We are really pretty full up on tanks. I'm happy to bring you into the guild but as far as raiding I really don't have any tank slots open. I'm happy to talk to you about slotting in to a dps slot or even a healer slot. I can move one of my existing healers to dps probably. But I don't see any tank slot options as Sanz has been our main tank forever and a day now and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Even if something happened with our Monk tank I don't see running two pally tanks being a long term strategy that I would maintain. Are you open to a dps slot whether it is on your pally or on another toon? Looks like we will need to get your gear level up some before you will be raid ready so we could definitely focus on dps gear if that is the only issue in switching but obviously we want you to be comfortable in the role too.

Thoughts?

Yeah, any of that works. =)

Yeah, any of that works. =)

I wouldn't mind playing any of the specs for the pally, but I'll have to get used to it. I can always get my tank fix in from M+'s.

I should be up to 375 now, not really getting any upgrades from LFRs anymore.

ok do a /who for game theory

ok do a /who for game theory and get an invite to the guild. Many of the people who are on regularly can invite. Tell them Dys said it is ok and they can check guild forums on the website if they are concerned. Don't wait for me to necessarily be on to get the invite, my in game time is less than normal due to real life commitments right now.
