Specc & Glyphs: http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?deathknight#_CJEBpkZSQJ2iP,dOI3eO,10676

Why that spec & glyphs?: This is the blood dps spec, allthough on elitistjerks they're discussing about 2/2 epidemic or 1/2 epidemic. I chose 2/2 epidemic at the cost of 2/3 BCB because I have always hated RNG based talents. Morbidity 3/3 is the talent point you're supposed to remove or 2/2 epidemic but I chose to keep it as it improves my AoE and is not RNG dependant. The glyphs used are GoDRW, GoDS and GoDisease. Reason why I use GoDisease is the rolling diseases where I use a DS before diseases to get off most ap procs to strengthen these diseases then use pestillence to refresh them. GoDRW and GoDS is self explanatory why I use them.


Gear:
Main spec(dps): http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Stormscale&n=Garaldk Off spec(tonk) http://www.chardev.org/?profile=310512

Experience:
I did not raid at all in Vanilla WoW, reason for this is that my first character Garal(Vek'nilash) was 49 when TBC came out. In TBC I cleared Kara, Gruul, Magtheridon, SSC, TK, MH, BT, SWP(Muru p1 11% before nerf). Wotlk cleared everything till the 2 first bosses in Coliseum and Algalon. Got Hodir and Thorim sigils for heroic Algalon key. Tanked every boss in 10man/25man normals/hardmodes exept 25man Ulduar hardmodes.

Achievements:
I got my glory of the raider (naxx), Sarth3d, most of ulduar10 achievements required for glory of the raider, some of the achievements for glory of the heroic ulduar raider also.

You played other games on high level?
Nope exept runescape lvl 83 but that doesn't count at all.

Previous Guilds?:
Reason: Well I started out in Reason Vek'Nilash on my lock Garal, I was with them till we cleared Gruul and tried Maggy. I left them because I wanted to reroll with a IRL friend, got me a lvl 60 Draenei warrior on The Maelstrom.

Exorsus: The warrior was to boring so I returned to Vek'Nilash and joined Exorsus, here I cleared everything in TK/SSC up to Illidari Council, we even took Archimonde 2hours after Azgalor. In the end I ended up in a conflict with the officers and I left so the conflict wouldn't evolve. The conflict was a result of a long time with tension as I can honestly say I didn't like that officer at all.

Avalon: After I left Exorsus I joined Avalon and I finally got to kill Illidan. Close to summer we started venturing into SWP but summer killed us and everyone went afk and had a life.

Sunday Union: While I had been in Avalon I had been gearing up my alt Reggae(Enhancement Shameng) and I managed to join Sunday Union here I learned of the difficulties of being a melee compared to warlock(not!) , I joined Sunday Union mostly because alot of my friends from Exorsus had joined them. I got to kill Illidan once again and venture in SWP without killing Kalecgos. I left Sunday Union because I wanted more challenge.

Ace: I joined Ace with my lock and finally got the challenge I wanted, SWP opened up for me and we managed to get to M'uru quite fast but the nerf got us before we killed him and KJ. I got to kill KJ before I stopped my adventure on Vek'nilash.

Rain (Avalon): Avalon had rerolled on Tarren Mill(Alliance) and I joined em, Avalon had by my time been the sweetest guild on Vek'nilash that I had been in. I lvled multiple characters to 60-70 to hope to get a raiding spot on the class I wanted to play, luckily I got the DK spot. I raided with Rain till this summer through Naxx and Ulduar but summer like before killed the guild. Allthough I got my raid leading experience from this guild and alot of sweet memories I felt disappointed that we couldn't keep it together this time.

Dawning: I joined Dawning and got to do most HM's in Ulduar 25 and the 2 first bosses in Coliseum. But I started finding WoW boring and I stopped playing it.

My friends got me to start again 3 weeks ago and I xferred over here and now Im looking for a new guild to raid with.

About <Last Effort>
Is there anyone you know in Last Effort who can recommend you?:
No, Im new to the server, and probably haven't talked to anyone of you.

Why do you want to join us?:
Because you guys are recruiting a dps dk and I want to raid again, got extremely surprised as on TM dks were needed in guilds and on stormscale every guild is filled with them.

What can we expect to gain from you in our PvE-progress?:
You can expect to get a raider that knows what he's doing and is always on time, always got flasks/food buffs, and not a raid logger.

Omen and DBM are the only add ons I use.
