Tell us a bit about yourself:
I am a 21 y/o from Canada looking to join a mythic guild seeking challenges in the current and upcoming raid tiers, I spend most of my time in wow trying to help out friends or guildies run through content either on alts or mains, and try to get everyone cheaper than AH prices on Consumables / BoE's. I spend waaayyy too much time on the computer and have playing WoW actively since WoD.}

Are you friends with anyone in Nightstalkers? If so, who and how do you know them?
I am not aware of any friends in Nightstalkers

Why do you want to become a member of Nightstalkers?
Emerald Dream is my home and probably always will be despite all it's faults. I wanted to join a guild that I could learn and progress with and after reading the description you guys seemed great!

Any alts we can contact you on?
Dechu - Alliance Emerald Dream

Our raid times are Wed, Thurs, and Mon from 8PM - 11PM server time (CST). Are you able to make ALL of our raid times, every week?

Please take a moment to outline your rotation/priority. Be thorough and specific:
For a single target opener you want to start Stealthed with Garrote with the Subterfuge talent or Ambush with Nightstalker or Master Assassin, Activate Slice and Dice followed by a Mutilate into a Garrote if not taking Subterfuge then Rupture follow up with your covenant ability into vendeta, press shiv vanishing afterwards (re-apply garrote with subterfuge) and watch those dots tick! While you're watching your DoTs tick just generate combo points with Mutilate (or Ambush when available) and dump and Dump everything you've got into Envenom while making sure to re-apply your DoTs during the fight.

Important abilities / things to do are: Mutilate / Ambush to Generate Combo Points, Maintaining Slice and Dice for that insane attack speed, Maintaining Rupture (preferably at 5 CP) and Garrote re-applying at 30% or less remaining duration as that is the maximum time that will be added to your next cast, using Shiv during a window that you have already refreshed your DotS for maximum usage with Envenom, Vendetta for extra damage and energy regen, and Vanish for an extra damage through your talents and Ambush

What's the one misconception about your class that upsets you the most?
That every rogue player is a toxic with a greedy playstyle

Summary of your raid experience (go as far back as you can):
 Started out as a LFR shitter in WoD that killed a few normal difficulty bosses. Once legion started I joined in a few raids from one of my friend's heroic guild during EN, during this time I realized raiding was definetly for me and ended up getting AotC that tier. Starting towards the middle of the Nighthold that same friend's heroic guild fell apart so he decided to make his own guild, during this time we full cleared normal and got a few heroic bosses in our first tier. When ToS came around we made much better progress but early on our best Healer left us for a Mythic guild. About half way through clearing Heroic ToS I heard that my friends Mythic guild desprately needed a Rogue player and kinda just got a trial run because of that. I ended up getting AotC during my trial run and even killed the first 2 mythic bosses. However due to troubles in the family I had to stop it there and cancel my wow sub there, missing out on potential progress on that tier of Mythic and even the entirety of Antorus. I came back in BFA looking for a fresh experience, until I realized about 3 weeks in that everyone I knew had stoped playing the game becasue they thought it was shit. I came back later to pick up AotC for N'Zoth and try and push some keys. This expansion I have been raiding in a casual friends guild where despite having multiple new players we were still able to pick up AotC together.

Is there anything else you think we should know?
I am always wanting to learn and improve, however due to this can be a bit too focused on statistics or other's theory crafting at times. I also have yet to respec to Venthyr as Night Fae is still really good for M+

Thanks for applying! We'll be discussing the app before the end of the raid week, and will let you know before the reset on Tuesday.

Let's chat in discord prior to raid tomorrow. I'll be online by 6 server. Want to discuss some particulars before we make a final decision.

[Neyed]

Alright, I accepted your bnet friend request and will talk to you 6pm server time. Apologies if I am a few minutes late as I unexpectedly will have to take my dog to the vet tomorrow but things should be cleared up before 6pm.

If you're around now, we can chat now. Didn't want to expect much this late.
