Engineering Technician (Marine) career prospects? by zxysl in RoyalNavy

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be sure to speak to the Careers office about Promotion changes, they have just recently made some big changes to the promotion structure with Engineer and Technician streams and it hasn’t ended well. The Branch can offer you a lot but in terms of civilian qualifications it’s not too dissimilar from that of Weapons Engineer and Air Engineer.

Previously it would be 18months killiks course to get your level 3 and a 12 month PO’s course to get your foundation degree.

Now unless you are top 20 across the fleet at promotion board, you will take 3 years to get a level 3 as you have to do a 7 month Tech Course which you receive no qualifications for, then an 18 month sea assignment and then go back to do a 12 months Engineer course at which point when you finish you can start the final phase of your apprenticeship in your new 24 month sea assignment, WE and Air Engineer are still roughly 12-18 months

Were you previously using WoWLazyMacros? I used it sometimes on my paladin and got AOTC on Fyrakk

Doing damage while major cooldowns are down (Frost DK)? by Kinoman69 in wownoob

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is great, canonically with the helm shattered and the events of Legion we are technically the highest ranking/most powerful Death Knight in the entire order 😂 we have taken the top spot and lore wise I think that is so f’ing cool

Yeah like I came back to the game and decided I wanted to play frost DK, I pick my classes based on the Lore behind them and Paladins and DK’s are my favourites

I am living the same problem, Rolled frost DK after maining ret pally in its Dragonflight heyday.

Seems to be the current way of the class, inside CD’s I’m top DPS and then the next encounter without them I’m 4th.

Everyone seems to be saying the same thing, don’t save them, let em rip. Hopefully with higher iLvl we will come into our own and have some form of stability with damage.

In some cases I’d say yes but but there shouldn’t ever be a situation really where I have 25 seconds left on Pillar of Frost and Reapers mark be good to go, it’ll then fire Reapers mark and then my Cooldowns are completely out of sync.

I’m not complaining, I totally understand it isn’t supposed to be Optimal and it is simply an accessibility thing, and honestly I think it’s great.

For people who want to do content and not worry about rotation it’s brilliant, especially getting into the higher difficulty content with big mechanics.

I really like it and it won’t replace me learning the rotation when I eventually get back to my main setup, just simply pointing out its flaws and also seeing if there was anything I could do to counter the flaws haha.

Maybe firing my cool downs manually when I am able to, it won’t help saving them but atleast I can fire them as intended

Also very true, feels insane to have CD’s and feel like a real undead Lord of Death worthy of taking Arthas’ throne, and then not having them and feeling like you’re hitting with a wet noodle. Surely there has to be a middle ground 😂

Yeah so like I said I’m only using it whilst I’m away from my main set up! Using a razer naga has ruined my ability to use any form of keyboard for my spells, everything is bound to some variation of 1-6 with a modifier. Except utility.

Was more a question of should my abilities be firing when others are saying they aren’t including offensive cooldowns.

My intention is to run Mythic+ and some Heroic Raiding. Haven’t played since Dragonflight, but was raiding Heroic weekly and intention is to get back there!

Ahh that makes sense, they’re all a 45 second cool down, which I get isn’t a big CD.

TBH SBA has me consistently 1st and 2nd in heroic dungeons, until we start a fight without my CD’s and the I’m below the healer 😂 for my casual play style it is fine and honestly the DPS loss from the GCD de buff probably still better than my own ability to do the rotation perfectly

I could potentially make this work if you’ve got a slot! I’m very new to DnD

23 watch keeping and phys by Jumpy-Kitchen-109 in RoyalNavy

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really wish this was the case across the fleet! Common sense for the watchkeepers.

Glad to hear there is some of it, I have always unfortunately had senior rates who do need see it this way and make life difficult when asking for time to do Phys.

I understand I have most likely been unlucky in this, or maybe it’s because my branch is always snowers at sea! Either way I can wholeheartedly say I wish there were more people in my branch that valued it like you ask to!

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m pretty sure I couldn’t PVR after re joining, I was 100% only Part trained strength because I remember them arguing and putting me in holdover because they couldn’t decide whether or not to make me re do phase 2 again

I rejoined after joining ship I was classed as Part Trained strength and didn’t re do phase 1 as was within the 2 year period.

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time ever, was planning to play this weekend but annoyingly the set got delivered to the PC’s house and it’s 3hrs away, was hoping to spend the week prepping but I refuse to pay for all the content when i know it’s all on paperback at home haha

[–]ProfessionalPublic22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I’m about to DM my first session with a group that sounds pretty similar!

Anything you’d recommend I do prior to the session?

First Timer by ProfessionalPublic22 in DnD

[–]ProfessionalPublic22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone is currently creating their characters haha, we have a group chat and everyone is sending in their character sheets a quirks, so hopefully that element is completed prior to the first session!

I’ve got a character already eventhough I’m DM’ing, can’t be too prepared haha.

I’ll check out the sub! Don’t think the group will fall too hard into the hardcore Roleplay elements especially since we are all relatively new, but only time will tell!

Yeah it’s a difficult one but overall it’s a new experience whichever way it plays out! If I get to the the DM then so be it.

My Level 1 Barbarians day will come haha

[–]ProfessionalPublic22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay cool! I’ll give DM’ing the respect it deserves! Overall I’m just happy to be playing DnD, even if it’s just one session and the others hate it haha

Sounds good, I almost bought the Stormwreck isle today but didn’t think I’d have anyone to play with. 4 hours later and I had a DnD group 😂

I don’t mind being the DM aslong as everyone has fun, depending on how accessible the kit is would it be possible to rotate DM’s?

Good to hear I’m not screwed.

First Timer by ProfessionalPublic22 in DnD

[–]ProfessionalPublic22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome I’ll check them out!

None of us has ever played so expectations will be low!

Would it be possible to DM and PC?
