How did you hear about us?Word of mouth.

What aspect(s) of the game is your main focus? I would like my main focus to be raiding. As of right now, just getting raid ready.

Are you applying to be a Social or Raiding member? To be a Raid Member, however I enjoy the social aspects of the game as well.

Have you read and understood our guild charter? Yes. Any comments regarding it? No.


What is your interest in joining Exodus, and why do you believe you're a good candidate? I have heard good things about Exodus. I believe I would be a good candidate because I am willing to learn any role my character lets me play.


Are there any Exodus members you know who can speak on your behalf? No


Have you been in any other guilds on Cairne? Yes, "DirtyLilHorde"


Have you ever leveled other characters to 80? Yes a level 85 Undead Mage.


Can your system handle 25-man raiding reliably? Yes


What kind of raid/end game experience do you have (be specific)? I played World of Warcraft when level 60 was the cap. I played a Human Holy Paladin and a Night Elf Hunter. I (helped) down Ragnoros and Onyxia on both characters and was successful. I quit playing due to joing the military and soon started playing again right at the end of WotLK, I only got geared in time for the expansion to come out. However I have completed Baradin Hold as a Tank and DPS as well as Magmaw as a Tank.


What is your play schedule like? Depends on my work schedule on which I findout every Friday but yes I should be able to make most of the raids. I would not apply unless I would be able to. Can you consistently meet our 25-man raid times? See previous answer


Any other comments? No.

1st:What are your thoughts on stat priorities in regards to gemming, reforging, and enchanting?

2nd: What is your reasoning behind not taking divine guardian and pursuit of Justice? Both are helpful utility talents for raiding. Where did you put these points instead? And why?

3rd: We currently have a lot of tanks, and a few have core spots in place, are you ok with playing an OS (or your mage alt) or waiting for a spot?

Looks like a good app otherwise.

1. I've read up and from what I have read is that parry/dodge/stamina need to be balaced, I also reforged just a bit into Expertise for the less likely chance of the enemy to dodge/parry my attacks.

2. I put the extra points into Improved Judgemeant simply because I was not in as much raiding as I wanted to be. I am willing to resepc these extra talent points. I am aware that only so much can be read up on your class and it just takes practice I have played a paladin for a long time, constructive criticism is always wanted.

3. I do have a nearly all heroic gear set for Holy spec with the exception of just a few items. I have been running random regulars/heroics and healed thru quite a few of them with minimul issues. A little more practice, I'd be pretty comfortable healing. And yes I would glady wait/play as my Mage (Arcane/Fire) Like I said I have played a Paladin a long time so the difference in Damage is always a fun change.

Also, I wanted to add the reason I did not choose Pursuit; I have never had issues with having enough Holy Power for whatever reason I might need it. But, like I said I'm willing to respec/reforge with some constructive cirticism.

Main reason I take PoJ is the increase to speed. It allows you to execute raid mechanics faster. (Which is a plus with jax) And not only is it faster than the boot enchant, but it lets you use a different boot enchant in place of it. So It is something to consider taking if you can find some less than useful points to drop for it.

Ahh ok thanks for that input I'll probably go and drop it right now then. Didn't think of the possibility of a better boot enchant.
