Ret Paladin - 493 iLvl - Recently returning hardcore player LFG

[Luvaria]

Hello, I've recently resubbed to WoW and I'm looking to get back into hardcore raiding. I've come back to the game after a year or so and and raiding casually with a group of old friends, but they're not interested in more than casual raiding, so I'm looking to take a step back to the level I once was.

Armory - Since I can't post links, my character is Luvaria on Crushridge-US

A little raiding history (I played a druid main until MoP, Rivhi on Crushridge-US)
BC - nothing harcore, casual progression. Started playing towards the end of the expac
WotLK - casual until ICC, where I started my own guild and made the jump to heroic progression. Led the guild to 11/12 H 25 man.
Cata - heroic progression: 4/5 BoT, 1/2 To4W, 5/6 BWD all 10 man. 7/7 Firelands. Quit just before DS came out, when my guild disbanded, though I did come back and clear it once or twice (I don't remember honestly) on heroic with some friends.
MoP - LFR and normal modes in T14, raiding very casually, usually only 6 hours a week.

Faction doesn't bother me. I offspec Prot, though I don't have much gear for it currently and have been rather unlucky in the LFR rolls. I come to raid prepared with 300 stat food, flasks, and potions, and having learned the fights through strategy guides. I also theorycrafted heavily for Cata heroic bosses before the heroic strategies were widely shared. I was a huge theorycrafter on my feral druid in Wrath, and as Balance/Resto in Cata I did as well.

What I'm looking for:
My available raid times are 6 PM until 1 AM, Monday through Friday, and any time on weekends. I'm looking for a guild who was at least progressing in heroic modes in T14. Attitude and group chemistry are a big deal. I want to raid 25 man, and doing things other than raiding together is a great thing, I think. I occasionally play LoL and some other games as well.

If you're interested in talking a bit, I'd prefer you to add my battletag which is Luvaria#1971. Thanks!

EXPECTATIONS
Church members must exhibit a thorough understanding of their class and how to use it to the benefit of their groups. We like people who can work well with others in stressful situations, who can analyze challenges and offer solutions while accepting the ideas of others, and above all, we look for members who have that rare, but treasured combination of fun-loving maturity.
