Don't really know why my played time of the character is of importance...
E. Anything else you would like to mention about your character to impress us? *
No.
F. Link your characters armory page * (USE THE URL CODE)
eu.battle.net/wow/de/character/eredar/Arecuridk/simple
G. Do you actively play all your off-specs and do you have any experience playing them? What about your alts? *
I do play tank somewhat frequently for mythic+ dungeons. Havent touched Frostspecc as it is worse than unholy both in DPS aswell as utility wise. Same goes for my alt Hunter and Demon Hunter. I play what is currently best.
H. Alts? * (We run atleast 4 split raids)
Demon Hunter
eu.battle.net/wow/de/character/eredar/Arefap/simple
Hunter
eu.battle.net/wow/de/character/frostwolf/Areucriuhunt/simple
Warrior
eu.battle.net/wow/de/character/eredar/Areboner/simple
Will probably squeeze in a rogue aswell or replace one alt.
I. Any raiding experience on these? *
I played my warrior in whole WoD Progression as main character. Switched to DK in Legion for the guild. Did HFC Altraids on my Hunter. Same with DK which was an alt back in WoD. Other than that only EN Hc splitraids.
3) IN-GAME & PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
A. Playing times (Example: Sunday-Monday 17-24 [we raid 7 days a week during progress 17.00 - 1.00 (Flexible times) ]) *
I'm very active and flexible due to my home studies. Depending on IRL stuff i might come online noon to afternoon and stay online till midnight or morning.
B. Previous Guild(s) *
I'll name only the noteworthy ones. If you're eager to know every shitguild i started with ask me or wowtrack.com
07/2015-01/2016 Adapt-Frostwolf Hardcore-Guildproject of some Refuge players. Vanuqa might remember as we tried to convince them to join us instead of Prime at the time.
02/2016-06/2016 Angered-Draenor Played there with Lexi. Left the guild as we couldn't even do half the raidnights due to members not attending. Officers didnt seem to care much.
07/2016-today Untitled Spreadsheet-Eredar
C. Reason for leaving previous Guild(s) *
Adapt disbanded.
Left Angered because there was no more effort and motivation from the officers to keep the guild alive... a week later they disbanded.
I left Untitled Spreadsheet because the officers were not capable of pulling their own weight in raids.
They also did not listen to players tactic advices e.g. using our 2nd dk as 3rd tank for Elrethe and instead wipe up to 30 times on the boss because the tank officer's Ego was too big. I also cannot identify with the goal of the guild to hold the status quo. Each content i have improved myself and the guild i played in and i dont want to play in a guild which doesnt have the goal to improve and strive forward.
D. Previous PVE-experience (Vanilla-TBC-WotLK-Cataclysm-MoP) *
Started noteworthy raiding just in WoD. Finished EN Progression with Untitled Spreadsheet world 58th.
E. Describe your role in raids, as well as a possible extraordinary role on some encounters *
I'm a very communicative Person. So as a DK i called out my incoming grips on Ilgynoth and requested assistance from our other DK and druids for pushback and additional grips for the Blood Ichors. In HFC i was responsible for the Gorefiend Souls and raidled this part of the fight. I like raidleading fights or parts of a fight where i am best suited to do so. I also like doing special Raidjobs, as playing a fight only doing dps is far too boring most of the time.
F. Explain your talent/gearing/stat/ priority choices for us *
Statweights
Crit>Haste due to Castigator without Legendary Bracers. With Legendary Bracers probably Haste>Mastery. Sources= Simcraft, DK-Discord, mmo-champion.... common sense
Talents depend on the fight and Gear(mostly Legendaries)
You can read that on icy veins so i'll just explain some scenarios which are out of the norm.
On Xavius Mythic i used the talent Infected Claws because it provided the most Cleave dps for the Big Add.
For Nighthold Infected Claws will be the go to Talent to take in every scenario due to most likely having the BiS legendary bracers and the setbonus which both increase Woundpopping by a ton. To be able to keep up with restacking of wounds on the target Infected Claws will be the best talent but obviously Sims are needed to backup my statement.
G. Link us your WARCRAFT logs to show your performance raid wise (If not you will most likely be rejected)*
All of my logs from EN are first kills and my priority was to do the most possible dps where needed (Ursoc, Ilgynoth Phase) and otherwise play mechanics as flawlessly as possible.

H. What kind of attendance can you sustain in our raids? (Feel free to link DKP or other sources showing stability)
During Progression i will have 100% attendance aside from unforseen emergencies. During Farm i will still have high attendance as i value Mythic splitraids very much as preparation for next progression tier.

Note: The Panel of the bottom DOES NOT cover game display. Its an addon called Sunn Viewport Art and changes the Aspect Ratio to create a more Widescreen view. This minimizes lost screenspace of interface frames like raidframes chatlog and such at the bottom.
Keybindlist:
I dont use my regular Keyboard for WoW. I use the Razer Orbweaver Gamepad because it has a thumbstick i use for my movement. This has the advantage for me to move 100% independently and use any other spells at the same time (without awkward hand or finger positions).

J. What addons do you have set up to enhance your performance? Do you use WeakAuras (or likewise addons)?
Weakauras, Elvui, Exorsus RT, Bigwigs ....
K. We take BETA testing seriously, do you have any issue being raid ready on BETA for raiding content? *
No.
L. Did you test any BETA in the past? Give us some information about it *
I did test Legion Beta on the account of a guildfriend who wasn't active until i got my own access. We did Mythic+ dungeons leveled a few times and did the Raidtesting for Nighthold and Emeral Nightmare (all difficulties).

C. Do you have issues with D/C due to internet or computer problems? *
No.
D. Do you have a microphone and are you able to communicate on Teamspeak 3.0?
Yes.
5) MOTIVATION
A. Why do you want to join Prime? *
I want to improve the quality of my raiding experience. I strive forward. Prime has shown to be able to accomplish their goals thats why i want to strengthen the team.
B. Why should we pick you? *
When it comes to progress i'm taking the game dead serious to get the best results possible. Outside of that i'm a laid back guy who can take and give a joke with ease. I'm an intelligent player who can contribute with tactics and log analysis. I like taking some responsibility in order to make sure everything is working as intended (e.g. a job inside of the raid but also outside of raids with guild organisation).
I'm also applying as a Player. I can switch classes for Progression sake and will do great as long as the specc im playing is bearable (*cough* Legion Warlock *cough*). Thus i'm a great addition to Team Prime.
C. What are your goals besides character development in World of Warcraft*
My goal so far is to hit the wall. Raid as best as possible until it doesn't get any better. Up or out.
Since i'm almost finished studying economics i'm quite interested in some economical aspects of the game. Before it was just the Auction House (got my few first millions through crafting and flipping stuff) nowadays it's the upcoming e-Sport behaviourness of Method and Dragon.
D. Is there anything you would like to add?
I've never been kicked out of a guild, been demoted or failed my trial. For a reason.
E. Is there anyone in Prime or another guild who can possibly vouch for you?
As i already wrote Business, i raided together with Lexi from Method in Angered so he can tell that i'm not an idiot and a valuable player.
F. How did you hear about us?
I saw some Ragevideos on youtube. They were funny to me so i got curious and looked you up on wowprogress.
