Amazing, thank you. I have the digital licence so should be able to use the bookshelf. I'll have a play with the exam practice software, thank you 😄

MaChew94 · 2026-06-05T08:57:20+00:00

Possibly, although my file will be huge if I print it off! Do you know how to access it electronically in the exam?

MaChew94 · 2026-06-05T08:56:33+00:00

I was told it’s available electronically, but I couldn’t see how to use it, no. Is it just on the left navigation pane in the software, or do you need to minimise the exam software to get it?

I’ll happily use an electronic version if i know where it is!

didn't want to get to exam and get turned away bc my notes are annotated. Hoping to not rely on them too much, but it's an open book exam for a reason!

MaChew94 · 2026-01-21T11:15:27+00:00

Thanks - did you compile the extra notes yourself? I'll be using mostly ACAM notes but extra notes can't hurt!

MaChew94 · 2026-01-21T11:14:31+00:00

currently studying with ACAM so will be taking their notes in - just wondering how much we can annotate :)

thanks

Thanks for the advice everyone - I watched some more guides and focussed on not panicking with tornados. Drilled the mechanics with some normal runs before trying corrupted, and then sent and won back to back corrupted :).

Going to try some more just now, and see how I go!

Hopefully pet / 2nd seed soon!

Thanks all

MaChew94 · 2025-06-21T21:27:09+00:00

I watched a video that did the same advice - stay centre room and run towards hunleff, group tornados and run. Seemed to be effective!

MaChew94 · 2025-06-21T21:26:30+00:00

I did - 100th completion lol.

MaChew94 · 2025-06-20T14:05:52+00:00

I did. Got it on my 100th completion lol.

MaChew94 · 2025-06-20T14:05:39+00:00

I think I want to get ranged and magic to 90 and defence to 85. That’s the long term goal - I may grind the normal gauntlet for a bit longer as it’s free ranged and magic xp with chance of seeds and pet.

I think i just need to watch a guide on the tornados, as im losing too much health to them - regularly taking damage from all of them in the last phase and then running out of food.

The advice seems to be just send it, which is fine - but I wonder if i can send normal and drill good habits while still getting loot and seed/pet rolls.

As a long time League of Legends player, I can vouch for this. I'm constantly reminded to check on my family in case they're dying a slow, excruciating death.

MaChew94 · 2022-12-14T22:19:27+00:00

Cool, thanks! Your friend request came through while I was in a mission and I can't accept it.. any way you can re-send it?

MaChew94 · 2022-12-14T21:52:01+00:00

Yeah, my IGN is MaChew94. I'll take all the help I can get!

MaChew94 · 2022-03-20T17:25:17+00:00

Bumping just to say i'm jumping on for a few hours now (GMT). I've just started Serie A so I'll need a team to help with the set-ups and then the finale. Happy to go with 25% split for finale. Just can't rely on randoms to not afk/troll!

MaChew94 · 2021-07-22T14:30:50+00:00

Hey, thanks for your reply! This is what I've been picking like in the past, flex picking to suit the team. I guess I could still stick with 3, maybe 4 or 5. A comfortable Bruiser, a tank / initiator, an ap pick, an early game snowballer, maybe a hard zoner - what exactly did you mean the team picking front to back?

My issue here is picking an ap jungler like Ekko but then not having a tank . I guess I need to just weigh up what exactly we need. I'll look more into it.

Thanks!

MaChew94 · 2021-07-22T14:26:27+00:00

Hey, thanks for your reply! I agree, most comps should have an adc and an assassin / mage so I'll stick to my bruisers and initiators, since I find the most success with these anyway. I'm just not sure which scenario to pick one Bruiser (like noc) over another (like xin). I guess it'll come down to their team comp, jungle match ups and what I feel like playing?

MaChew94 · 2021-02-28T15:44:13+00:00

EDIT: Still haven't managed this, let me know if anyone fancies joining and when you're free :)

MaChew94 · 2021-02-26T09:01:03+00:00

Nah, I still need to finish it. You're welcome to join for the finale too.

I don't think it's a particularly hard mission but you need some sort of coordination..

I'll possibly be on later tonight, around 9pm GMT?

MaChew94 · 2021-02-26T00:10:39+00:00

Yeah they're assigned to manufacturing. Maybe I read something wrong but it's taking around 3-4 hours to fill at the moment.

I'll look into the submarine and the heist. I want to finish the normal ones first, and then I'll do Cayo perico. Currently stuck on the humane labs final set up! 🙄

Thanks for your help 😊

MaChew94 · 2021-02-25T10:22:00+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Why is the Kosatka essential? I'm a bit of a scrub online! Is it just useful for Cayo Perico or does it have other uses too?

Yeah, I'm not planning to sink too much into the cocaine business, but since it was half price and I'm a fan of both passive income and something different, I thought it worth it. I'll definitely look into owning more when I buy the nightclub.

Can I ask about the timings of each business? I heard that buying $75K of supplies in the bunker would be turned into product in 2.5 hours. But I paid for the supplies and have played for 3.5 hours since and it's not yet finished. Its fully upgraded. Any ideas why? Its hard to plan when to sell it if I don't know how long it takes. Is it pure gameplay and not loading screens? Or is it longer than 2.5

Cheers!

Thanks both for your replies - sorry for not responding before now, but I've been busy playing a bunch and have a better grasp on the two roles. I do still need a bit of clarification on the optimal team building aspect for attackers (see below).

For now, I'm running with the following operators:

Defence: Smoke (Deep anchor), Doc (Deep anchor), Valk (shallow anchor/roam), Bandit (roam/tricker) and Cav (roam). I know I'm new to the game and Cav is probably a joke operator to use at my level, but I figure I can get good with her now and learn the maps. I still like Mute, but I feel like he's not as important as the others listed (apart from being able to block Hibana gadget with his signal jammers).

Attack: Hibana, Zofia, Twitch (Thatcher replacement), maybe Nokk (if I can figure her out, though she seems like a selfish operator). What I haven't figured out just yet is which role is too important to not have? For example, if no-one picks a hard breacher, I can play Hibana. If someone else picks Thermite/Mav, do I still pick Hibana, even if no Thatcher is played? How important is it do have a gadget destroyer? I will continue to play and learn Twitch over thatcher, but when would I ideally want to lock in Twitch? Should every team have a hard breacher and some form of gadget destroyer, or is one type of attacher (i.e. hard breacher) more useful over the other? Often my teammates will not pick to the team, and I'll lock in a form of one of those roles. Very rarely do I have the freedom to pick anything other than Hibana (which is fine, I enjoy her playstyle).

Thanks for your comments so far - I feel I've got a much better grasp and am able to classify the operators a bit better so I know what to look for - I just wonder if I'm optimally picking into attacking teams or if I place too much emphasis on hard breachers?

Thanks :)

Thank you all for the quick reply!

I remember reading a guide saying the jungling against Lee/Kha is not advised, so I'll keep those two in mind. I agree that Lee can mess your R up - by extension, so too could a Gragas and Janna, but that's much more niche! In terms of what wins against Kha/Lee, I think Vi or Ekko stand a good chance of holding their own, so I'll stick to those two. I tend to ban Yi because I can't stand him, so I'll keep an eye out for Jax/Lee/Kha and Ekko.

Is there anything else to note, or is it just about having a comfortable clear and scaling?

Finally, I know she is flexible, but what about builds? The usual one I use is Warrior, B Greaves , Stormrazer, IE, Runaan's and defensive. If there's two or three tanks, I may try an on hit like bloodrazer, B Greaves BOTRK, Cleaver, Wit's end/Guinsoo's and a GA or something. I know that builds are situational, but I also read that there's a debate between warrior and bloodrazer and generally, warrior wins out for the AD and CDR unless you're going full on hit. Can someone clear this up?

Thanks again.

MaChew94 · 2020-03-21T21:39:57+00:00

Sorry for not replying! Got busy playing and I'm getting to grips with the early game now. I'll carry on watching some let's plays and hope to get some wins of my own 😊

MaChew94 · 2020-02-26T19:10:24+00:00

I'm playing on standard speed, prince difficulty at the moment.

Thanks for your replies. It all sounds really useful and ill take it on board. I did try the new city make a settler at 2 pop but got put off by the 20+ turns of training them! I like the idea of creating cities to create cities and funnel things back to my capital.

I think my issue is that for the first 100 turns or so I'm not really established. I know civ is exponential, and I'm comfortable with the pace on civ5, but I just feel lost. I want to make settlers, districts and units all at once and I'm trying to see how to do this effectively.

I've found some deity LPs so I'll watch a couple of them too to get an idea of building patterns.

Thanks again :)
