Rare Application [GW2]

Hi there all,

About me
I live in the UK. Have played all sorts of mmo's back to DAOC at pretty much every level but my preference has always been PvP: small or large scale. I think I have the skill to cut it at a high level in both formats but I am not a fan of zerging down keeps with 20-30+ players. I much prefer the precision strikes of smaller, more skilled group.

I'm a mature person (29 years old) and very patient. You guys would know best if I would fit with the guild; I enjoy the social aspect of the game (which is why I play mmo's) but when I do PvP, I play to win ;)

Character
I play an elementalist, level 80 of course. My current play style is Fire/Earth for good dps but solid defence, this helps me hold my own when I have 2-3 people on me (I won't win but I can last a while for backup to arrive). I haven't decided which play style I'll commit to yet, so I haven't kitted my character out in exotic gear. Although I will do when I've made my choice.

Why Rage?
The guild offer almost exactly what I'm looking for: friendly, skilled people who aren't going around WvW zerging everything in sight but playing to win by tactics and, well, by being better.
I understand you are not sure whether you have room to recruit right now, I can wait for a spot. I don't know anyone in your guild right now but I believe I could be an excellent asset to the team. I play most nights and at weekend (although for me RL always comes first).

Thanks,
Rae

Calm + dedicated in PvP, always a good combination. Though as we just opened our recruitment tent again and i suppose some people were wanting their reallife friends in, you might have to wait a couple of days for a final decision. Whats ur name btw and what are you doing irl?

My name's Mike, as I said I'm 29, so mostly I spend my time during the day at work. Evenings I spend time with my gf or playing games (she would argue I spend my time playing games and some time with her!) or cycling/running.

In game I spend most (nearly all) of my time in WvW or queuing for it. I do a little sPvP when I have my friends online, as I like the tactical small scale teamwork aspect of that.

I can wait the few days for you guys to decide, so no rush.
