WoW History:

I started playing WoW in 2009 in a guild of a friend of mine that I knew from school. He was also the one who got me hooked with World of Warcraft in the first place.
I raided casually there till the end of August 2010, and then I quitted WoW shortly after that, so I could focus on my grades in school.

I came back at the end of Cataclysm. And from then on until the end of WoD I mainly played PvP and sometimes PvE. I?ve had quite the success in RBGs and Arena, achieving multiple Hero titles and 2.7k Rating in MoP and WoD. But during that time I wanted to do a bit more PvE, so I started boosting Challenge Mode for gold and I realized that I wanted to do more and achieved every server first for Challenge Mode in both MoP and WoD.

The PvE itch did not go away and when Legion came I realized that PvE is more fun for me, so I started solely focusing on PvE. Through a friend of mine, I got into the newly formed guild called ?baited? (currently on Blackrock EU). Over time, the guild became very important for me and I tried to help the guild as much as possible, which led me to become the recruitment officer of baited. We saw steady progress from content to content, getting every Cutting Edge achievement from EN till BoD. With the release of BfA new systems were implemented and PvP became an important part of gearing, and therefore I started playing PvP again with great success. The first season of BfA I hit my new high of 2,900 Rating and achieved my first gladiator, but I soon realized that playing the game for so long kinda burned me out, and I needed to take a break from the game. I did that, but I would in return give away my spot because back then I did not know how long the break would last.

4 1/2 months later I came back but since I gave away my spot I knew that I could not play with ?baited? any more, sadly. A friend of mine that I knew from PvP also started PvEing, and he got me into his Guild called TG-Gaming on Eredar. I was with the guild till the end of BfA getting 12/12 Mythic and Cutting Edge in Ny’alotha. During this last season of BfA my PvP team came back together, and we reached nearly 3,000 rating as Feral Lock Paladin. With time, I disliked how Horde looked, and I wanted to go back to my roots and play alliance again, so I told the Guild that with the upcoming Shadowlands prepatch I would be leaving the guild.

With Shadowlands I got into a guild called Myth which has a deep history on the server Blackmoore being one of the few guilds that are on the server for nearly a decade, creating a wonderful community and a tight bond between the leaders of the guild and its members. It was important for me that I found a guild that has those aspects. During Shadowlands I still played PvP getting my 3rd gladiator at a season high of 2,800 rating, and we cleared Castle Nathria Mythic getting Cutting Edge and being in the Alliance Hall of Fame.
With the second season of Shadowlands, I only casually played PvP to get some gear and focused more on raiding. We finished again in the Alliance Hall of Fame.

History of Previous Guilds:
baited from 2016-2019
TG-Gaming from 2019-2020
Myth from 2020-present

Why did you leave them?:
baited – I was with the guild from the beginning of Legion till BfA CoS. But playing the game for so long resulted in me being “burnt out” from the game and I realized I needed to take a break, so I gave up my spot and took a break.

TG-Gaming – After my break I came back but sadly baited and didn’t have a spot for me.
A friend of mine who was in TG-Gaming asked me to join them and I did during the last few weeks of TEP. With time, I realized I wanted to go back to alliance, so with the SL prepatch I switched back to alliance.

Myth – The last two tiers of SL showed me that I personally don’t want to raid 3-4 days a week, and that’s the reason why I want to leave.

How did you find out about Violent Circus?: Through Wowprogress.

Why do you think this guild is fit for you and what are your expectations from us?:
One of the most important things for me is the bond that a guild has. I’m not a player that leaves the guild when raids/tiers don’t go our way. Playing together, forming a community and staying together even when a raid tier doesn’t go our way. Those are the principles that define a guild for me.

Of course, having success is important. Getting better with time and more importantly getting better together is something that Violent Circus showed over the years and that?s something I can identify myself with.

The reason why I want to join Violent Circus is simple. The bond the guild has, the history and playing together getting better together. Those are the attributes I want to see in a guild, and that’s what Violent Circus offers.

My expectations are that I want to be used effectively and efficiently, but firstly I want to find a new home. I want to be used accordingly, and I want feedback if possible in order to become a better player.

What can you bring to the team?:
I know that feral is a class that is mostly referred to as a meme. I’m always trying to get everything out of the spec. It does not matter if it’s damage, healing or gameplay. It is important for me to get the most value out of my toolkit, and I’m trying to bring this into the raid.
If there are fights where I can shine as a feral or contribute greatly, I will be doing that and inform myself beforehand, so I can help out as much as possible.
I want to get better every time I play, so I’m talking actively with other ferals who are raiding at Top 20 to 100 guilds to always stay ahead and know what to do and be prepared.

Switching my specialization is something that I have no issue with. I stay in touch with all the specs Druid has to offer, so I can be ready whenever it’s needed.

With me, you get an ambitious, determined and vocal raider/player who wants to get everything out of himself in order to be the best asset for the raid and the guild.

Availability(How often are you available, etc.): Every day basically
