Yes im already a pretty active player getting my reputation up and doing hero's and i'm ready to start raiding so yes i'll be around for a long time to help progression its my favorite part of the game.

Raiding with Bash was always a great experience. I know he left without really letting anyone know, but imo the quality of his play and good personality warrants consideration for another chance.

@Bash-Just a tip: More elaborate responses in your application will go miles in the eyes of those who make recruitment decisions <333

Thanks

I haven't read up on the class kinda going by game play and what works so feel free to correct me or to critique

1.Could you please explain your base ST rotation and priority spell casts?

I like to start up with a holy shock and then spam holy light / devine light 1 to 3 times then judge a target ( depending what heal i'm spamming) to get that mana back. I cast Holy shock when its up to get my holy power. Once I have 3 powers I cast word of glory. .. light of dawn is powerful but tough to use.
Sooo to cap up word of glory has priority when I have 3 powers helps mitigation and best yet its free !! and a chance to cast twice.
Next holy shock keep those freebee casts up and its instant.. I love the instant stuff.
Next holy light im spamming this all the time its practicaly takes no mana as long as i judge when its up.
Next devine light I cast this just as often as holy cause well tanks take crap load of dmg.
*** Judge is right up there with word of glory something that gives mana is just as good as a free heal !

I only take pride in a fight if i'm still full mana at the end .. fun challenge

2.Can you explain what the recent change to Pally healing and how it has effected your ability to heal?

beacon change its 50 percent now still good but not as good.. thats a big one. And for the rest
I kinda answered that in question one ( and other stuff not mentioned so much has changed)

But if I may ask a question with a question whats up with tower of radiance. It clearly says if you heal your beacon with holy light or dive or flash you get a holy power. Ive seen it work ive seen it not .. is it random .. am I missing something or is it bug... ..

3.If we were short a tank are you knowledgeable and willing to play prot for an extended period?

I'm a tank at heart but everyone wants to be a tank and so few tanks are needed
So I decided to be heals just as fun. And a bit more challenge. So yah i'd be more then happy to tank for a long time.


4.What is your priority for prot tanking? ST? AoE?

Not sure I fully understand the question but i'll give it whirl

I button mash really keep my agro up and watch for strays. I hammer as much as possible holy powers rock for either healing myself or raid or doing extra agro for those high agro players. I've found keeping agro easy with the new changes and combining holy shield with word of glory and shield of righteous simplifies things. So pretty much I have my taunts hot keyed on my mouse for the strays but the rest I button mash casting hammer and avengers shield the most cause of high dmg and then casting whatever is up. ( depending on fight)
Oh yah damage reducing shield are kinda key now days I seem to be using them a lot.

Hope that answers your questions.

This was hotfixed to no longer give holy power while healing with Holy Light. The tooltips may not be updated yet.

I liked all your answers though. Seems you have a firm grasp on the Cata changes overall.
