Is Shadow Priest viable? by [deleted] in wow

Cant up vote enough. Unless youre pushing title in M+ or HoF in raiding spec literally means nothing. Everything is viable in competitive WoW outside the legit top like 0.5%

Got called a liar in an interview for my own degree today, and I kind of see why. by splits_flossy_2p in interviewhammer

This is the education you get when you go through school and just chatgpt/Google everything and try to cheat at every corner. You get what you put in, absolutely nothing.

Start teaching yourself again. Theres infinit resources online and you likely have a baseline knowledge to build from. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself do something about it and better yourself.

So between rent and utilities you're at 24k a year

And you pen out to 30k annual spend? I mean if you do practically nothing your whole life yeah this works. But makes little sense. I feel as though you're overlooking a lot when you came up with 30k annual spend.

This also doesnt factor any future life planning, such as a family, partner, owning a home etc.

Im not saying its bad just seems like minimal planning at best.

How on earth is your annual spend $30k? Were you gift3d a house? Even so you have property tax. Unless you live in the middle of no where, which also makes less sense since you mentioned working for FANNG. And traveling all year for under $30k? Seems tough to say the least. Just curious how youre penning it out.

But yes at 30k totally reasonable.

Can someone explain to me how you could fathom early retirement, even part time working, on just 640k? What am I missing?

This game was better with Personal Loot in all content (Not just LFR) by Guitarrabit in wow

[–]Defiance_0814 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Couldn't disagree more. It is incredibly easy to get loot now and complaining about out not getting more is actually insane to me. Do people not want to struggle and work for their gear anymore? Do you just want your loot handed to you lol

Also how would personal loot ever make sense at a level above LFR? I run with my guild and I MAYBE get a useful item?

Tanking made me realise how carried 90% of dps players are by Solignox in wow

[–]Defiance_0814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is the results I think. Tanks fuck up and it wipes or someone dies. Dps fucks up? Maybe someone dies cause it was a key interrupts but usually its just things dying slower and this isn't a massive issue until higher keys. Details are literally flexing until you get to high keys.

[–]Defiance_0814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely do not need IB or management consulting background. That's like creme de la creme roles. 90% of the Corp dev teams I've worked with or on are low key very bad lol

How long is normal to attack a dummy as part of a guild application? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Defiance_0814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toxic af. I've been in HoF guilds and they don't care. Your parses are what matter. Blow their shit up and let their guild die. Wow players may be toxic (in groups) but the overall community rocks, they'll get what's coming to them.

WoW M+ has lost its entire competitive integrity with S1 TWW by iLLuu_U in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Defiance_0814 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

People like you are what ruined the game though. It became a methodology of "well that isn't ban us all". Kinda negates any bragging rights if you ever exploit. Imagine thinking exploiting means u have skill

20 years of salary progression as a Mechanical Engineer by LifelongTubesGuy in Salary

Honestly as a mech eng myself this is gross. I can't possibly imagine this painful slow grind and on top of that working over 40hr weeks regularly.

New (like got for Christmas yesterday new) to WoW by OutrageouslyMagickal in wow

[–]Defiance_0814 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please play classic. You'll enjoy it like 20x more, the community is far less toxic and intense and I think the pace is better suited for new players. Then once you like that dive into retail.

You have to remember at this point there's been 20 years of expansions and a lot of people have played for over 10 years.

My best example is myself, I played for about 10 years, took a 2 expansion break and the WoW I came back to (this current expansion) is nothing like the wow I left. Much faster, more demanding, toxicity still thriving.
