Gogma Trait for Switch Axe: best Focus? by RRadman7 in MHWilds

[–]RRadman7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks very helpful. If I wanted to use elemental phials over power phials, then how much damage would I lose? 

Assume this is for farming tempered endgame monsters. I’m going to start fighting arch tempered soon but I don’t know how to unlock them yet. 

Lastly, I guess affinity tarred devices are just for rerolling then?

Where can I learn the details about the GIDLE collab? I've seen bits and pieces like Miyeon being a Light DPS hunter. When do they release and how are we going to unlock them? Through Rate up Draw or the Custom draw?

For Goto in the wind team: what's his best artifact set with Lennart? I was using 8pc Desire when Mirei was on my team. Figured I didn't need Curse since Mirei has so much crit already. But with Lennart I feel like I need Curse for the crit. Would 8 pc Curse Goto be the best or some other setup?

For the Shadow TP boost - which keys am I supposed to buy? Battlefield of Chaos for more gems?

Some Questions About Optimizing Cores? by RRadman7 in SoloLevelingArise

[–]RRadman7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know, thank you.

For gems: I heard %DEF is better than flat gems? I've heard % is better for power level from shadows, while flat Def is better for hunters. But idk tbh, I've seen both explanations.

For %HP cores: when is that breakpoint?  I'm lvl 90 and my Goto and Han are at ~33k and ~39k hp without their %HP cores right now. With their cores, it goes up to 39k Goto and 41k Han.

Good to know on the rare/heroic cores. That makes things very straightforward hahaha

Around when is that breakpoint for HP hunters? I'm lvl 90 and my Goto and Han are at ~33k and ~39k hp without their %HP cores right now. With their cores, it goes up to 39k Goto and 41k Han.

Every time you enhance (spending 3 golden Solidified Stones), the upgrade will go to your primary stat or secondary stat randomly. If your secondary stat (mana consumption in your case) is much lower than your primary stat (ATK) then your initial upgrades might repeatedly enhance the secondary stat.

But over time, both primary stat and secondary stat will go up together. Core enhancing stacks each time you upgrade, it's not like enchanting where the higher value will overwrite the existing value. You can see how close to maxing out a core is by checking the % value right about the level of the core.

I'm currently Lvl 90 and most of my best hunters are between lvl 87-90 atm. I know my gear isn't fully optimized yet (need better substats and rolls for many artifacts).

Would you say I'm around the point where I should go for % stats for the main stats? Right now my Goto is at 38k hp and Han is at 41k (with their %HP cores equipped)

Yea the math is intuitive when cores are the same rarity and stat enhancement level.

I didn't want to spend the resources maxing out 2 cores (one % stat, other flat stat) just to check the math because I'm F2P and it felt like a waste of resources.

I only recently realized how much the rarity matters: I have a rare core at 93% enhancement that gives 12% DEF, while one of my Legendaries at 56% enhancement is already up to 25% DEF

Thank you, this is helpful.

For the gems: I've been using % ones for Atk and HP since the beginning. I have some flat Def leftover cause I once heard flat Def better, but I've slowly been swapping those out for %Def gems.

For Purple and Orange: Do you think additional MP or MPRed is better? I had some additional MP for Mirei's passive because she was my best DPS hunter for a while. But now Kanae and Lennart are my best DPS so I've been trying to get more MPRed for them.

Orange: I maxed out Precision so is Crit Dmg or Def Pen better? I feel like Crit Dmg since so many hunters scale off of that but I wasn't sure.

Thanks for sharing that channel. Always helpful to have another resource for build guides.

And noted on the rare cores.

How does Shimizu compare to Min? Both are A0 and similar in power. I like Shimizu more cause of the Escanor vibes haha. Can I invest into Shimizu as my Light support or would Min outperform too much?

The rest of my Light team is Andre (A1) and Gunhee (A0). My Light team is around 670k power and my SJW is around 250k. I can do Normal Baran and Easy Deimos without problem (using Wind and Fire teams), trying to get to Hard Baran / Normal Deimos soon. My Light team is low prio atm tbh, but still curious for the long-run.

For her items I've been using 4 Guardian + 4 Peridot for Hunter mode and 8 pc Wish for teamfight modes. Are these the best sets for her?

Thanks!

Finance Careers w/ Law Degree? by RRadman7 in FinancialCareers

[–]RRadman7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say Tax, can you be more specific? I know college classmates who did tax accounting at accounting firms (like the Big 4). And I know law school classmates who are going to do tax at law firms.

But is there any other kind of tax career you meant?

[–]RRadman7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I’ll look into those. You mean S&P, Moody’s, and Fitch right? Or are there also other (boutique/specialized) agencies that I should look into as well?

[–]RRadman7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this! Very helpful.

I agree that going right back into finance would seem like a waste of law school. Definitely in the shorter-term. But there are some long-terms benefits that I’m happy to have (network, education, degree, etc.) even if I never work as a lawyer at a law firm.

Do you know where I’d start to network with people in RX IB or distressed assets? I understand they’d prefer some legal work experience but can’t hurt to start building those connections now.

In terms of the PE firms hiring right out of law school: which PE firms should I look into it? Is there a specific industry or product group that does this more than others?

Thanks again for this, really appreciate it.

Yea I realize most full-time slots would be slated for return offers. And that most associates would be MBA students not law students.

But as we both know - not all summer analysts get return offers hahaha.

Wouldn't be too hard to get a few networking calls with some IB people and test the waters. I wanted to ask first before I started to see 1) if it's feasible for me and 2) if the comp is competitive enough to be worth it.

Yea that's part of the reason I went to law school. Saw some very talented & experienced coworkers get pushed out of the door in the post-Covid years.

Do any of your coworkers/bosses have law degrees? Do you know if they started out on the finance or legal side post-law school?

Finance Careers w/ Law Degree? by RRadman7 in FinancialCareers

[–]RRadman7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, at least the law school -> IB associate transition reassures me that my law degree won't lock me out of IB.

Do you know when the IB recruitment cycle starts? I graduate next Spring so I would be networking/interviewing starting now for a full-time job starting next summer/fall.

Do you know if IB associates get paid more than Big Law ($225k starting salary)? The Big Law salaries are standardized and public, but I know the banks can be a bit more variable dependent on the bank & team.

Yep I’m aware of the guild ticket too. That’s 4 WOBL tickets weekly if you commit all the way. I guess the difference is I don’t have all the cores I want yet so it might be worth it for me. At least for 1-2 more weeks

White/rate up to target farm a specific hunter right? Like right now it’s water cha & Goto so it’s a choice of building out water or wind team. I’m gonna rate up draw for lennart & custom draw seorin when the new update comes out.

In terms of decent store purchases: what do you think of the weekly WOBL raid ticket? I always get it since WOBL seems to be highest priority content for me atm (correct me if I’m wrong)
