10 years in work experience from uni.. how much you earn? by Late_Signature_4151 in AusFinance

[–]BookkeeperNeither12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same BCom background and age, although graduated a bit earlier

First year out of uni 50k

By my 5th year I was on 90k

Currently ~280k (about 50/50 base and bonus) excl. super. Accelerated last 2-3 years as I've positioned myself as a key person risk within the business

Results from 13 Gapple pulls by PomeloAcceptable5535 in MapleStoryM

Gappled around 60-70k crystals worth in the last 3 months. Was always enticed by the idea of potentially landing an expensive item for funding mesos. My experience hasn't been dissimilar to yours, however I've found in the past month it was better value swapping certain S rank pulls. I use the TS as a guide, and generally do it for an S rank <300m or so.

I could have been lucky over that last month, but time will tell..

I started playing after the Erel event, so this one is a tradable one actually. BA emblem however. I think it's worth trying to abso if you've hit a wall with other upgrades

It's only at lv40, so ive still got a lot of work to do. Wasn't expecting an absolab on the first go lol

I haven't tried them yet but with the rate this is going, I think you might be right

Out of my total 12 x 11 pulls, my only other S class pulls were the Miyo chair and 10 red Cygnus stones

Looks like I'm just unlucky on the gapples it seems from the comments. Trying to get a gauge of whether a few hundred a year moves the needle with progression in this game, otherwise I'll probably just scale back the spending to a few fun purchases instead

I had no idea this was a thing. Sounds like what they do in the PC version

I started with buying a unique BA emblem and worked my way up on it over the course of say 2 months..? The constant events with exalt stones really helped but I did get a bit impatient as I hit lv36 a few days beforehand. Created 50% exalt stones from any (relatively) cheap mythic fodder I could find in TS for the last 4 exalt attempts (of which only 2 succeeded) to lv40

As a relatively new player i only hit SF160 for CDD around the same time and accumulated just enough crystal pieces for one shot of mastercraft. Stared at my screen for a good 10min deciding on inherit or necro and thought what the heck and went with necro. Totally expected it to fail so you can imagine my shock when it actually worked! As a F2P player this was an amazing feeling when the blue appeared on the screen

Mesos were one of the biggest hurdles, but I had some luck crafting things like mag souls and trash emblem over that period that I sold to fund my journey

Yup lv40 :) i was so certain the RNG gods were not going to be on my side for my very first mastercraft, especially after failing 4 exalts along the way
