[Raider] Vysage, Priest Extraordinaire

[Vysage]

Who is your character?

Vysage! I do all the Priesting - the "smiting bad people until my friends feel better" spec, the "lots of spells to save my friends from their own stupid mistakes" spec, and the "embrace the void just before a transition phase" spec.


Who are you?

I am a 31 year old Welshman named Pete. No sheep jokes!


Experience

I was a "proper" raider in Burning Crusade (top 3 guild on the server, got about half-way through Sunwell before the guild disbanded), and Wrath of the Lich King (realm firsts in Ulduar and ICC Heroic). Started Cataclysm, but we all know that expansion was a bit rubbish... Took a long break, and came back casual in Pandaria, but have PUGed various Heroic raids over the years for a challenge.


Raid Role

I like healing people! I also don't mind hurting the bad people.


Your Spec

Heart of Azeroth level 21, gear is just shy of 349 now (going by the highest pieces). Each spec is around 345 with the optimal choices (that Ask Mr Robot tells me!).
I played mostly Holy in Legion, as I didn't quite enjoy the changes to Discipline, but it seems a lot smoother in Battle for Azeroth. Disc is my go-to for Mythic+, as I can squeeze decent damage out of it too. I go between Disc and Holy for raids.


Off-specs and Alternative characters

I find Shadow really comfortable to play, so never have a problem DPSing. Most expansions I usually level a melee DPS / tank, which I get to a comparable gear level, which I'll likely do at some point before 8.1 arrives.


Communication

Chatty on Discord, always trying to fit in a terrible joke in the middle of a raid...


Combat Logs

I've never been in a guild / raid where I needed to do it for myself!


Your UI

Finishing this application with WoW closed down, but I can grab you one at some point. I like clean, uncluttered information (as uncluttered as it gets with all the right addons, anyway!) with a clear view of what's going on.


Guild History

Only Raven Council since joining Defias Brotherhood during Warlords of Draenor.


Raid availability

I originally put "reserve raider" in the application title, just because I know I can't commit to every raiding day every week. I try and aim for one day a week, but family / work commitments sometimes torpedo that. I'm happy just signing up for raids, and comfortable understanding that I might not be "core team" material and may not always get an invite. Comes with the semi-casual territory, no problem there.


References

Been doing Mythics and M+ with Morg, Marksus, and Ulerith. And Ildramir, but if he says anything bad about me, he's definitely lying.


About you

RPG nerd, and I enjoy a good debate.


Miscellaneous

Most people pronounce my character name wrong, and I've given up trying to correct them!
("Vice-age"? Really?)
