Vylance/Vyceral

Edited for lack of reading comprehension for question 6 <.<

1.) Please tell us your Account name.####, your age, Global Location/Time Zone

Apocatequil.7156, 27, Sweden (from Australia though) [Central European Time]


2.) Please list the your characters' names, class, and levels.

Vylance - 80 Warrior (100% WC, 400 Weaponsmith, 400 Armoursmith)
Vyceral - 80 Necromancer (400 Artificer)

Several other lowbies from levels 5-65


3.) Tell us about how you play your primary profession(s). How are you geared? what role do you play in a team?

My warrior is primarily DPS for dungeons, Axe/Axe, Axe/Mace or Axe/Mace + Longbow using full Berserker armour (CoE + CoF) Runes + Jewelry are still being worked on. WvW generally mobility/initiation, Sword/Warhorn or Sword/Shield + Longbow (dependent on situation), still working on Power/Vit/Toughness armour for WvWvW.

Necro is mostly undergearred at the moment, 5/6 Exotic armour + exotic weapons, haven't started optimising runes/jewelry yet. Run predominantly condition/well builds for WvW or condition/bleed builds for PvE traits depend on group make up (ie tank or damage focused). I've tried about every build available in sPvP or tPvP so I can play pretty much any role on my necro, although I'm quite out of practice on her, haven't played her as a main since december (when I threw my hands up with the state of tPvP and sPVP).


4.) What server are you currently on? if not on Dragonbrand do you intend on changing?

Dragonbrand


5.) What MMO games have you played in the past? Do you still play them?

LoTRO, predominantly played a captain, which was effectively a higher utility but less tanky/poorer dps version of a guardian.

7.) Please explain why you would like to join ToA.

I took a long break from the game at the start of the year and have only played sporadically since then. I'm looking for a bigger guild to participate in higher level content (such that there is in GW2) and co-ordinated WvWvW. I ran a lot of the SaB with Dukesy who suggested it was a good guild.


8.) How did you hear about ToA? Do you know anyone in ToA? Please list their name(s).

Dukesy, Anamatronix


9.) Do you have Teamspeak and a headset with microphone?

Yes, although I generally don't talk a lot, I'll always listen if things are going on.


10.) How often do you play Guild Wars 2? Hours per day? Days per week?

Hard to tell at the moment, varies quite a low, probably 2-3 hours a day, but.... could be much more or less


11.) Did you play Guild Wars 1? (If Yes, please tell us your character names and what guilds you were in.)

No


12.) Please tell us what is most important to you in a guild. Be specific.

Friendly atmosphere, organisation, people who try to be the best they can be. Basically a guild that allows you to get the most out of what GW2 has to offer.


13.) Any additional comments you would like to add.

Not really, thanks for reading the relatively large wall of text.

Just to see if people were actually reading the wall of text <.<

[aka, I'm bad at HTML formatting]

Question 6 continues to be answered incorrectly time and time again...but whatever.

good vouches, I want to see an official trial done though.

invited 27/5/13 trial

did 2 paths of coe went well even tho i failed with line of warding

+1

I was on the trial runs as well. I asked dukesy to go ahead and send the invite for probation status.

yay for more fake swedes xD

tho i would suggest getting a gs for your war for the axe/mace+ gs super dps.

Hej! Unfortunately thats about the extent of my Swedish <.< and Okej! (and Tack of course)

I've tried Axe/Mace + GS and I just can't stand the root on 100 blades, or having to be against a wall to get the max DPS out of it. I use the Axe/Axe switch-in to get a big adrenaline boost for eviscerate (basically able to spam eviscerate every time it's up), to keep fury up (when i'm slow on the ult signet) and for AoE effect of spinning in a combo field (not to mention the massive on crit heals from the omnomberry bars in large mob pulls).

You're probably right that GS + Axe/Mace is better dps overall, but I think they're quite comparable [especially since I like running around like an idiot during fights <.<].

Thanks for the probational invite

And by this you mean the nub warrior sat there in the spinning zombie of death....

But yahs were fun runs, sorry I was terrible with positioning, haven't done a lot in a few months

Did some CoE runs, fractals and WvWvW with people the last couple of days.

Fractals were reasonably terrible due to everyone being on alts, and me just being plain terrible in one case (you ARE meant to run over eggs right ./facepalm). I need to work on getting a power/vit/toughness set for more individual survivablilty for different group make ups next (once I finish gearing the necro this is next on the agenda)

CoE/WvWvW went well and were loads of fun.

I can't remember the name of everyone who was on the runs (so sorry if I forget people)

CoE - Dukesy, Shiva, Ben, Anamatronix
Fractals - Mist, Sophie, Kronos, Anamatronix

You were fine in fractals - everyone runs through the spider eggs at least once

pvt gear makes quaggan's sad

did a coe run with him yesterday. was friendly and communicative. picks up dodge rolling well

Can't be hard to pick it up faster than you and Matti

Did a CoE run with him a couple days ago. Very friendly and works well with his teammates.

Went through some more CoE runs (seems to be the FoTM dungeon for the time when I'm on ^^) and the guild missions last night.

Did I mention I hate invisible Karkas?

Hopefully I'll have my engineer up and relatively geared this week so I can add some more variety (rather than the zerker warrior/sad necro) to Fractal/dungeon WvW runs.

Did some more CoE runs during the week that seemed to go fine.

Tried to do Arah but my internet connection decided that it wasn't appropriate for me, so sorry to the people I had to bail on.
