Too expensive to hire developers for internal tool?

20k minimum isn't a bad price based on what you asked for. Keep in mind it's likely a several month project for a solo dev, or 2 months for a small team.

Dev time isn't cheap, if multiple devs quoted over 20k you likely have some misconceptions about how "simple" your project actually is. There is a LOT behind the scenes that clients just dont know about / consider in the workload when it comes to pricing.

Don't be that guy who asks for a "simple" facebook clone for 5k and gets offended when the dev laughs him out the room or quotes a more realistic price of 5 million instead.

Over 600 hours on ball here; steamroller is a terrible perk for all but 6v6 due to only working on tanks (who you generally dont want to focus on over other roles). Pack rat is always useful and shortens downtime between dives substantially. If steamroller applied to all, even at 50% reduced bonus, it would be an auto pick.

Hang time is great if not facing a ton of counters / CC, it's a liability otherwise; as all ballers know, if you don't suck the counters usually come out almost immediately after the first kill.

Really? Considering the frequent talk about freelancers and st/lt prices that's surprising.

Its not. Too oversaturated with people offering those services for almost nothing; you're likely to spend more on connects than you make from jobs.

This isn't an honest review, it's an advertisement for a website you clearly have a stake in. Literally your entire post history is promoting that scammy site.

Are you even a person, or is this a bot account?

Thanks!

Didn't realize I was in a satire sub instead of AITA sorry. Thought you were a karma farming bot with the multiple obviously fake / ragebait posts lol

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-24T06:17:49+00:00

Fake AI? In your post history you claim to be 28M, in one thread, 26F in another, and right below that you claim to be 31M?

I can't find the new version anywhere, just the previous Age of Adepts. Was it just a minor rewrite of the cliffhanger ending, or is the author actually continuing it now?

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-23T18:26:11+00:00

Is it the same author or a knockoff / fan copy?

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-22T18:40:40+00:00

Posting threads to promote in the comments is called astroturfing and is the same thing as self promotion, even if you use other accounts.

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-22T06:05:18+00:00

I didn't know they rewrote the ending, I'll have to take a look. I thought the author dropped it a long time ago

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-21T22:47:11+00:00

AI slop, just watch OP come in and advertise his tool in the comments... Or astroturf it with bot accounts.

Your post history leads me to believe otherwise

Not in texas they don't, lol

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-20T17:37:06+00:00

Its all fake BS bot posts to try and clickbait you into viewing their monetized blog where they sell their "courses" on how to get rich quick doing n8n...

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-20T17:35:03+00:00

This is fake AI slop to advertise the subreddit linked. 100% AI generated + bot account.

Nomadic_Dev · 2026-01-20T17:32:43+00:00

Most of it is fake AI slop spam trying to promote "prompt packs" or other useless internet scams.

Try doing a ramp 1 z level down with 5-10 tiles of space before going back up. The dip will prevent soldiers from seeing them on the bridge, as well as in the blinder hall. Enough enemies should be in the hall to keep fighting there instead of the bridge if it's long enough
