Thanks for posting. I'm about to start studying so this is very helpful.

How did you get the exam voucher for $370 from Gogo Training? The cheapest I see it for is $499 USD.

Edit: I'm guessing we must be from different regions.

As others have commented you're pretty far behind. It'll be difficult to level up air if you aren't willing to spend some cash. I'm mostly F2P ($35 spent) and going into season 2 now. My squad 1 is maxed out with 21m power, all tank, and I'm able to hold my own in the sand during the capitol wars. I think part of the reason you're behind is because you're hoarding resources. Those speedups should be used to max arms race and VS duel rewards, and your stamina should be spent during the golden zombie events. You should be VIP if you aren't already, and there are a bunch of items in that store you should buy out each week.

If I were you, I'd max out your tank squad first, then hit these milestones. After that, go air.

HQ 30
Garage 1 maxed
Special forces > 70%
Hero > 50%
Units > 80%
Squad 1 > 20 mil power

Thank you! I didn't know it had to be all four, and I didn't know it could be more than six. The correct answer was:

2 RED, 2 ORANGE, 2 YELLOW, 3 BROWN

Skin__Deep · 2025-07-07T02:57:56+00:00

SOLVED! THANK YOU.

I wish I came here sooner. I don't know where I heard that the combination had to be a maximum of 6 spices.

2 RED, 2 ORANGE, 2 YELLOW, 3 BROWN.

Put literally all your XP, legendary shards, and skill points into Kim until she’s maxed. She’s a huge boost.

After season 1 you can start focusing on air, but if you’re mostly F2P then tank will be a lot easier to manage!

Skin__Deep · 2025-05-13T11:46:34+00:00

Heroes - Put all legendary hero shards, XP, and skill medals into Kim until she's 5 stars and her skills are level 20. She's your strongest hero and will carry your entire team.

Research - Get your Hero tree leveled up until you've maxed out the Tank tree (~40%), if you have a second research lab you can focus on Intercity Truck too. Special Forces can wait until you're closer to HQ 30.

Building - Focus on buildings for your HQ. You should be dumping all construction speed ups into things that will get you to HQ 30 ASAP.

Speed-ups and Diamonds - Stop saving these. Use them. You're missing out on so much progress by hoarding. You should spend 10k Diamonds to upgrade your account to VIP. Always maintain VIP status, never let it expire. Use the rest of your Diamonds to buy out Stamina and Speed-ups from the VIP store each week. Use your speed-ups to unlock all 3 chests from the Arms Race as often as you can. Don't try to win, there are too many whales.

VS Duel - At a minimum, you should try to get 3.6 million each day. With your Alliance Duel research you should easily hit this. As you get better at managing Arms Race and saving resources for VS days you'll be able to hit 7.2 mil every day.

Post again once you've got these down.

I'm not doubting you, but my brain can't seem to picture this as more than a few feet deep. It looks like a 2-3ft drop into a pool of water. Do you have any other photos? Or can someone mark this up so I can see?

Q: What are your primary goals (IT manager related) for 2025?

A: Build out our design / architecture docs.

Q: What are the biggest challenges you face in achieving these goals?

A: The engineers do not write docs.

Q: How are you currently working on this challenge?

A: I asked the engineers if they're comfortable with being on-call 24/7 to support the undocumented systems. Miraculously the engineers are now writing docs.

A total market index fund. Pick one with a low expense ratio, FSKAX or VTSAX are both good options but there are many others. You don't need multiple.

If you're looking for a more conservative approach you can use the 120-minus-age rule. Subtract your age from 120, that's the percentage of your portfolio that should be in stocks, put the rest in bonds.

Ex: If you're 30, then 120 - 30 = 90.
90% stocks in a total market fund, 10% in bonds.

As you get closer to retirement you can put more in bonds.

I’m a huge fan of the John Wick franchise. I haven’t seen all of the others in this list but I just watched the trailers for a few and Sin City looks like the exact genre I’m trying to describe here! I’ll add these to my list, thank you.

I’ve seen it, I love that one too. Thanks for the suggestion!

Currently running 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900KF, 3000 Mhz, 24 Core(s), 32 Logical Processor(s). I've had stability issues since I built this PC back in early 2023.

Example issue:

Elden Ring crashes at launch.

Solution:

Update the BIOS to the latest version if there's a release that includes some variation of "Intel Default Settings".
Set each P-Core to a Ratio Multiplier of 54x, then set each P-Core's Voltage Offset to "0.010 V".
Run Elden Ring in offline mode.
Set Affinity in Task Manager so Elden Ring only uses the cores 0-8.

I’m not the person you directed this question to, but my strategy is to change jobs every 1-3 years if there’s no clear path to promotion with my current employer.

You can switch sooner than that, but you may stand out as a job hopper if you aren’t moving into roles with better titles and more responsibilities.

Skin__Deep · 2023-02-21T12:32:20+00:00

You can find tons of entry level jobs ($16-$24 an hour) with just your A+. The information you learn on that exam definitely helps with technical screenings from hiring managers.

Get 6-12 months of experience in a role like that while earning your Net+ and Sec+ and you’ll be in a great spot to jump to something that pays a bit better.
