Thank you for applying to should be sleeping but I have some questions for you.

How come you decided to put points in improved shadow form and none in inner focus?

What was the reasoning behind you meta gem in your dps spec?

I saw on your armory that you have one piece of healing tier, what is the reasoning for that?

Just to add to Aura's questions:

I noticed you were using glyph of SW:P. Do you ever have mana issues as a spriest? Wouldn't glyph of SW:D be more useful for the extra damage?

Also, can you click on the abilities that are not key-binded fast enough? Wouldn't adding a few more key-binds - like say, SHIFT+1-4, CTRL+1-4 give you an edge?

I look forward to your reply. Again, thanks for taking the time to fill out the app.

this is for aura.
the teir healing peice isnt supposed to be bound to my shadow set....i have the dps shoulders equiped now lol i put them on on accedent.

and i just now put on glyph of SW:D

and the meta gem is about to be replaced by the crit rating/crit dmg one
but im in the process of changing my gems around so it is being replaced

as far as the inner focus/imp shadowform....i chose imp SF becuase i didnt see any real use for inner focus. the 3 min cooldown was a big turnoff for me.

and i dont have any trouble using my skills by clicking....i really dont click that much so i dont think i need any more keybinds atm

I completely agree with you on IF and its retarded c/d being a turnoff. I used to have it on my priest but I ended up dropping it. It just doesn't do it for me.

Regarding your keybinds (or lack thereof ), I've found that while they are extremely useful, (good) players will set their bars/abilities in a way that others may not agree with. As long as your bars/abilities are set up in a way that you can find them easily, you should be fine. Just don't shut yourself off from trying out some more binds in the future. Once you get used to them, you won't regret it.

Whenever you get a chance send me a tell in-game so we can talk. If I'm not on Eggsaladin, I may be on an alt, so just ask around.

P.S.:
