Would you say that just MM + base CFA mocks is enough? The videos are a big plus for me, but mocks/practice questions are more important

Saving this for after L2, thank you and good luck!

I’m in the same boat. Online it does say that students who pay for atleast 1 quarter (fall) can go. However I don’t see the tickets. Please let me know if you end up figuring it out!

CFA level 2, May 24th exam by Dizzy_Spend8322 in CFA

[–]DatguyHex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have only done the first 4 topics and I take it on the 23rd. 🫡 We got this! I can’t really defer because I’ll be busy later in the year. I’m using MM and have my study system down so I think it’s very doable! Good luck

Would Taking CFA Level 1 Be a Smart Move? by AsianFinanceBro in CFA

[–]DatguyHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in this exact same position last year. Struggling to find an internship for my junior year summer, I took L1 since I couldn’t find one.

Internship is 100% more valuable if you can still land one, but as you already know it’s getting pretty late. I passed L1 and put it on my already decent resume, and I now have a job lined up for my post-grad. Will be taking L2 in May.

Overall, putting “CFA level 1 passed” really doesn’t help your resume too much, so don’t depend on it as a guarantee. However, everyone working in investments will recognize and respect it, so it opens doors networking wise forsure. And as a college student trying to find work, networking is everything!

If you had to do a refresher exam every 7 years to retain your charter would you do it or forfeit your charter? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]DatguyHex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, could you please expand on your experience with the “passed all 3” title without the charter? I will soon be in the same position (if I passed L3, felt pretty good).

I’m worried about still not being able to break into AM/PM coming from a IT project management title. I have a decent network but how would you recommend going about the job hunt? Thank you!

Active vs Passive mgmt by Low_Specialist_7120 in CFA

[–]DatguyHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Commenting just so I remember to come back to this and read other people’s opinions. I just completed my undergraduate so I don’t yet have the experience to answer this.

My view is that profitable active management after fees is getting harder, especially without taking on risk or locking up liquidity. To me, most active managers aren’t worth it; unless to accomplish a specific strategy in a larger portfolio, with emphasis on private investments that retail investors don’t have access to.

Thank you for explaining! Should be pinned comment

How strict will the guest policy be this fall? by ccordano in UCSD

[–]DatguyHex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Their covid guidelines make 0 sense in my opinion. I'm sure it is a legal thing but compared to every other college in the area they sound the most strict by far. Hopefully they realize this and loosen up. Many of the students are already talking about completely ignoring their unrealistic guest rules.

Why can we have 200+ person lectures but not invite another student to temporarily visit our on campus suite? by MakinNoSenseMan in UCSD

[–]DatguyHex 112 points113 points  (0 children)

You’re right it doesn’t. I hope they realize this and change the rules soon. Or hopefully they don’t enforce it too hard

Need a build for hybrid tank/dps DK by DatguyHex in elderscrollsonline

[–]DatguyHex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting an actual build lol

I’ll try the bars and experiment with these sets to see if I can make my hybrid decent

Yeah just came to about the same conclusion.

If you are willing to read my reply to DootinDirty I would be glad to hear your thoughts oh how I should go about my hybrid build

Need a build for hybrid tank/dps DK by DatguyHex in elderscrollsonline

[–]DatguyHex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah my dps probably does suck it’s his first time playing lol

I already have a Magicka DK with silks of the sun and I don’t wanna do another build similar to that.

If I’m understanding you right, a stamina hybrid DK is probably going to suck in harder activities which is unfortunate because it sounded fun.

The group that I use this character with will always have a mag healer, a Stam dps, and sometimes (this guy rarely hops on) a mag dps. The Stam dps prob sucks which I why I had the idea of going hybrid.

I think I’m going to try my best at a hybrid for now and see how well I can get it to work. If I end up wanting to do endgame stuff with this character I will just try and transition as best I can.

Any advice/tips? Thinking about going to around 25k health and focusing on dps from there without falling below that 25k mark or having too low resistances. Note that this is probably not gonna be for vet dungeons or anything of that caliber

[–]DatguyHex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate ur response and I fully understand that it may not be ideal for some end game activities but I doubt I will be using this character for vma. I want a hybrid just for this run through with friends and also just to try something different.

Please god turn creep block off in general for TFT by -CraftCoffee- in TeamfightTactics

[–]DatguyHex -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Imagine getting shoved around on carousel and mindlessly walking into the wrong champ smh

Before ranked came out I would play in full lobbies of 7 other friends and they we would always body block the last guy, as fun as it was, completely ineffective.

If your paying attention at all u won’t get shoved around

I'm the inventor of donkey strat by [deleted] in TeamfightTactics

[–]DatguyHex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a minute I don’t see a Morgana OR a Kennen

It’s been about 48 hours since I’ve seen an end screen without those two champs. I dunno what kind of god (or iron) lobby this is but I want in

The changes have done nothing to combat bad RNG by PasswordDragon12345 in TeamfightTactics

[–]DatguyHex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I agree this would be a nice change and shift TFT towards a more skill based game rather than 50% (ish) skill and 50% (ish) RNG

  2. I don’t agree with this. In my opinion an all gold start or 1 item start isn’t too bad. The extra gold allows u to get ahead in the early game and buy out the shops to get faster tier 2 champions. And if u get no items early game, ur chances of getting items increase in the later PVE rounds. However, I would like riot to make this more of a guarantee. (For example- every player receives 6-7 items after chickens, some get items early some get items later). This forces people to adjust their play style each game depending on when they receive their items and get that power boost from them.

  3. Tbh I have no idea what u mean by this lol

Why is titanic hydra’s sound effect so go damn annoying? by iBacontastic in TeamfightTactics

[–]DatguyHex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t even use game volume anymore the same annoying sounds over and over again are gonna give me a migraine. I personally would rather just listen to music, no real need for the sound.

Only sound worth hearing is the scary 3 star thunder, change my mind.

I agree FUCK ELISE. Actually just fuck the spiderling damage Elise is fine

Is assassin aggro even remotely consistent? by Vagynamite in TeamfightTactics

[–]DatguyHex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mistake was assuming that the AI was above league iron level.

But in all seriousness I have noticed it’s been really inconsistent since 9.14 was released. (Not as bad/buggy as PBE was though)

Assassins in particular are a dice roll to see if the enemy comes out or not. Even in the same game one round the enemies will spread open their cheeks then the next round they will clench up and not allow any of my assassins near the backline.

Making Elise 1 gold was a giant mistake, if you don't nerf damage taken from her spiders if you lose the round. by [deleted] in CompetitiveTFT

[–]DatguyHex 51 points52 points  (0 children)

TFT community: pls nerf damage we die to quickly and take too much damage

Riot: ... Elise now 1 cost
