[Withdrawn] Alìce - Holy Priest (Possible Transfer)

1) WoW Compendium:
• /played: 125 days
• /played at level 80: 65 days
• When did you start playing? I started playing a couple of weeks before BC came out.
• Play time: On weekdays from about 4pm until 12. On weekends, if I'm awake I'm usually on unless I have to go shopping.

• Guild/Server history: I have always been on Dalaran and while raiding was in the top guilds on the server. I was in Moment of Silence
from T6 content through SWP and T7. The guild then decided to raid casually so I left and went to Ascend. I stayed with them through
Ulduar and ToC. They recruited me as a holy priest but had too many so the only raid spot I had was as shadow. I moved on to Aftermath and have been here through ToGC and ICC.

• End-game experience: During BC I participated in the only pre-nerf M'uru kill on the server. We also got the first Undying run on the
server. I have completed GotUR 10 (on three healing toons) and 25, as well as Grand Crusader. I have compelted ToGC10 on my priest(50 attempts) and my shaman (49 attempts). I have also done 4/5 on my pally her first week at 80. We are currently 4/12 HM in ICC25 and my 10 man group is 7/12 HM.

• Other classes you play: My main alt is Elthia - Holy Pally http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Dalaran&cn=Elthia.
I also play Ciell - Enh/Resto Shaman http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Dalaran&cn=Ciell, and to a lesser extent, Mistree - Resto Druid, Airliya - Survival Hunter

2) Personal Compendium:
• Age: 24
• Location: Ohio
• Sex: Female
• Other games you play: Tried Aion but didn't like it.
• What do you hate: Two-faced people and favoritism
• I think my biggest weakness is… I tend to blame myself for things even when I did nothing wrong. I always look back and say "If I would have done that, maybe they wouldn't have died to that fire they were standing in"

3) Do you feel your gear is up to par with what we need? yes

4) Are you exalted with Sons of Hodir? yes

5) Do you PvP? Not on my priest. I have been getting into it on my pally.

6) Dual Spec: Disc
• Can you play it as well as your main spec? I like to think so but I have only really used it in 10 mans.
• Would you change main specs if need be? No, I don't really like dpsing and bubble bot is ok sometimes, but not every day.

7) Professions: Alchemy, Enchanting
• What do you gain from them? I originally picked up Alch for the trinkets in swp, I keep it for the increased stats and duration on flasks. Enchanting for the ring enchants.
• If you have gathering, what’s stopping you from changing them? That is what alts are for.

8) UI Screenshot with List of Bindings:

UI Screenshot: http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/6978/wowscrnshot011010191224.jpg I am not on combat in this one so you cannot see my action bar which is under grid. The only reason I have to show it is for the CD timers on them. If this is an issue I'll take another one tonight while in raid. I couldn't last night because lag issues caused us to not be able to do anything. (20 min loading screens ftw)

Key Bindings:

` - fade
1 - renew
2 - flash heal
3 - prayer of healing
4 - greater heal
5 - prayer of mending
6 - dispel magic
7 - circle of healing
8 - binding heal
Shift1 - abolish desease
Shift3 - holy nova
Shift4 - guardian spirit
Shift5 - desperate prayer
Shift6 - mass dispel
F - pw:shield
H - hymn of hope
G - arcane torrent
ShiftG - any other macro/item/spell for a specific fight (ie. Rocket pack for gunship or GS macro for Valithria)

I use OPie as well so my keybindings for that are as follows:

CtrlX - Mounts
CtrlB - Buffs/Res
CtrlF - Food/Flasks/Pots

9) You will need lots of consumables to keep up with the pace during progression raids. How would you expect us to react if you were to
show up unprepared? I would expect to be kicked from the raid without a second thought

10) Will you come to a progression raid having already read any available information relevant to encounters? Yes, I always read as much as I can on fights before I get to them. I also ask for clarification if I don't understand something.

11) There will be bench time. Everyone will have to sit at one point in time or another. How will you handle this? Probably do some BGs on my pally or watch tv.

12) Why should we accept you? I am an exceptional player and have put a lot of time into learning my class and the other healing classes so that I can better understand my role as a healer. I follow direction well and don't make the same mistake more than once. I love constructive criticism as I believe that it makes me better.

13) Tell us a bit about yourself. I went to school for computer animation and network communications. I do have a full time job that I work 7-3:30 M-F so I don't stay up much past raid time. I would be transferring with my boyfriend, Umbreon.

[Perki]

Looks decent. Being that your boyfriend would be coming over with you, is he planning to apply himself?

[Bigjay]

uhmm Perki, he applied first, the shadow priest who applied yesterday.

[Perki]

Based on your parses your using a FH > PoH rotation, is there a reason you never us renew and as to why you picked that healing style?
Being that you use the FH > PoH priority do you plan on using 10t 4p, and is there a reason you don't still use t9 2p?

What do you think of the t10 4p set bonus change that will be coming in the next patch, if you don't already plan to use the set would you after then change, and how do you think it would effect your play style?

Being that your heavily gemmed for haste I assume you never have mana issues, and have you considered the possibility of changing some of your haste gear for slightly more crit, or do you feel comfortable with your current stat setup?
Your parses in general aren't all that impressive although I wouldn't say they are bad either.

Based on your parses your using a FH > PoH rotation, is there a reason you never us renew and as to why you picked that healing style?

I have been trying out using renew over FH but to be honest it feels very strange to me. I imagine that if my renews were not 80% or more overhealing than I would use them instead of FH.

Being that you use the FH > PoH priority do you plan on using 10t 4p, and is there a reason you don't still use t9 2p?

As I said above, I have been playing with using renew more than FH because I am planning on getting the 4pc.

I do not use t9 2p because I was only using 2pc to begin with and I only ever had the 245 pieces as I don't believe we ever saw a conq token drop from Anub's chest. I could be wrong there but not by much. The stats that I gain are better than the set bonus.

What do you think of the t10 4p set bonus change that will be coming in the next patch, if you don't already plan to use the set would you after then change, and how do you think it would effect your play style?

I don't like the changes, of course I didn't like the way it was before either. It would really affect my playstyle because I am used to having that hasted POH so I would have to get used to starting the cast even earlier if I do not have 3 stacks up.

Being that your heavily gemmed for haste I assume you never have mana issues, and have you considered the possibility of changing some of your haste gear for slightly more crit, or do you feel comfortable with your current stat setup?

I do on some fights but we also run with 5 druids and they usually innervate people before we even ask for it. I also spread out my CDs so it is rare that I even really need that innervate.

I was gemming for int and was ending fights with 60% or more mana so I switched. I do think I am getting to the point where I have too much haste but one of the pieces of sanc that I will have will drop that haste for some more crit. I also don't have a problem with SoL procs because I do have enough crit to where I get one with CoH and PoH 99% of the time.

Sorry for the slow response. Took a nap til raid and typed it now since I am sitting out so others could get their gunship achievement

I suppose it could feel somewhat awkward at first if FH is what your used to but that's no reason to neglect the superior build. Saying that renews would account as 80% or more overhealing is just absurd realistically it should have one of the lower overheal percentages of your spells. The fact that your FH is between 40-70% overheal for every fight (usually closer to 70%) confuses me even more as to why you would try to reason like that.

As I said above, I have been playing with using renew more than FH because I am planning on getting the 4pc.

I do not use t9 2p because I was only using 2pc to begin with and I only ever had the 245 pieces as I don't believe we ever saw a conq token drop from Anub's chest. I could be wrong there but not by much. The stats that I gain are better than the set bonus.

At the moment the 4pc isn't all that great and I wouldn't recommend using it at the moment although when the change goes live it should be considerably strong. As for the t9 set bonus the 2pc still extremely strong for both disc and holy and can still very useful. Now unfortunately you don't have any 258 pieces and the fact that PoM tends to have a somewhat high overheal rate, which the bonus only adding to it makes it more of a personal preference.

I don't like the changes, of course I didn't like the way it was before either. It would really affect my playstyle because I am used to having that hasted POH so I would have to get used to starting the cast even earlier if I do not have 3 stacks up.

As I said before the 4pc isn't all that great and I wouldn't recommend using it. At most it would be around 400 extra hps and that's with rng on your side, while 9 out of 10 times it would be much lower. You say that the change to it would change your playstyle but you should learn to change it on your own as regardless of how it might feel or seem replacing your FH with renew is simply more effective. By playing this style having slightly more crit becomes desirable as crits from empowered renew is what gives you surge of light and really that's the only time you should be casting a flash heal, when its instant. Now obviously you wont be getting as many fully hasted Poh, but at least from my experience its not really needed to keep up with healing, and I'm willing to bet you'd be surprised as to how cast you can get a 3 stack just from renew crits.

I do on some fights but we also run with 5 druids and they usually innervate people before we even ask for it. I also spread out my CDs so it is rare that I even really need that innervate.

Technically you should be using your fiend and hymn together as you'll end up getting more mana return. Other than that the only thing I really have to say is that you really should tryout and get used to renew playstyle rather than FL it truly is better

I tried this out this week and it did seem better on fights like Marrowgar. I didn't get to try it on Saurfang because I was on my pally for that hardmode We obviously didn't finish yet for the week so I will play with it some more. I do agree that I would need a little more crit to make this more effective.

saurfang is more of a disc fight imo. Renew spam really shines on fights like hard mode marrowgar, festergut, blood queen, and sindragosa.

look what i found on ptr!

Mmm actually good set bonuses!

I think we are going to just withdraw our applications.
