AKA

Korz, Theophany the Sly, Overlord Theophany, Rogue Forum Guru, etc.

Who is you?

As it pertains to Allakhazam, a gamer who has vast knowledge of WoW. I've been posting on this site since my days of playing FFXI, and currently I play WoW; specifically a rogue.

Who are you IRL then?

I'm a 23 year old male who lives in Steattle, WA. I've done a great many things throughout my short life. Don't really care to go into details.

WoW Characters

Name Level Class
Korz 70 Rogue
Masheen ~50 Hunter
Dumbrage 70 Priest
Löcke 70 Shaman
Theophany 70 Hunter

What kind of experience do you have in WoW?

Depends on what aspect of the game. In PvE, I've got experience through BT (up to Mother Shahraz), including MC, BWL, AQ40, Naxx, Kara, Gruul, ZA, SSC, TK, and MH. In PvP, I've not got much pre-TBC experience. Most comes from after the arena system was put in the game.

Alright, so what kind of arena experience do you have?

Well, I dinged 70 on Korz halfway through Season 2. I grabbed a friend (Umbrage, 70 priest) and we started doing 2v2. I had a decent amount of skill to start, but I was doing research at the same time on tactics, watching hours of video, and PvPing in battlegrounds to get as skilled as I could. I started as combat maces, and about 3-4 weeks into playing I switched to mutilate. I carried the team to ~1900 rating that Season, but left at the end of it to play with other friends on their 2v2 teams. I would have gotten Rival in Season 2.

How about Season 3?

Since I had gotten 2 pieces of Season 2 gear (shoulders/chest) and 2 off hand weapons (I will be the first to admit I was a noob back in the day), I started out S3 by getting weapons from honor. It ended up that I got Syphon of the Nathrezim from PvE, but I used Syphon/S2 off hand dagger until I got my S3 swords, late in the season. Before that I had every piece of S3 gear besides the shoulders. My main team in S3 was a 5v5 team put together and made up of friends. We played a rogue/warrior/holy paladin/feral druid/hybrid hunter setup. We got to 1850 and then whether it was poor play on someone's part, we tanked the rating and maintained 1800 until the end of the season. I didn't do much 2v2 or 3v3 that season seriously.

How about Season 4?

I've been playing fairly regularly. I've had 4/5 S4 for a while now (3-4 weeks into the season), and I've been working on finding a team with the commitment and the skill to get to 2050/2200. MYteddy (of Rogue Forum fame) came back to the game and rolled a rogue on Draka, so I've got options for the future, but this season looks like I'll be doing feral/rogue seriously in 2v2 (when my brother gets off his ass), and possibly rogue/rogue/druid in 3v3. I played a mage/rogue comp early in the season, but the mage left the team to help friends.

What notable things have you done for Allakhazam?

Well, let's see:

  1. Wrote the current Rogue Forum FAQ.
  2. Made my Journal into the Allakhazam PvP/Arena Forum.
  3. Wrote Theo's Rogue PvP FAQ.
  4. Made many UIs available for download.

Can we see your current UI?

Sure. Here's my UI in combat. Notable is the target buffs/debuffs floating on either side of the center of the screen. Here's the configuration shot. You may notice the timer is not above the focus in this frame; that's because that's an addon called ShadowsightTimer.

Why are you not Sage/Guru?

Because I'm a jerk. I've been a jerk since pretty much day 1 of joining the forums here. The only reason I'm not sub-default permanently is because I make quality FAQs, and people find me funny.

What do you look like IRL?

This.

How do we contact you outside of Allakhazam?

Well, there are a two ways:

  1. AIM: phoenixification
  2. In-game: Make an alt on Draka and talk to me directly.
