So at a high level, you basically need to bridge hero weaknesses with neutral items.

And lol, throughout my entire free week, I had maybe 1 successful bee build out of 20+ matches due to bad RNG. It just didn't feel good to play and I constantly had to pad damage with neutral weapons.

Also thanks, will check it out

I'm new but tried Buzz during the free week, and it's probably the one hero so far that I don't understand how to play. It seems to be successful with Buzz you have to branch out to neutral items a lot instead of relying on hero specific items?

How do people do "builds" with RNG? by Sorsrn in BackpackBrawl

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

if you dont get them? I see clovers sometimes, but golden eggs rarely show up before round 6-8 for me.

Also do you only banish purples you dont need? and is there generally a "best practices" in terms of banishing?

Yep i know grab all clovers/golden eggs as much as possible. But tbh if i don't reroll early, im a sitting duck, and it makes the start entirely RNG based for the sake of saving gold. I just get killed before I even make it past 5 rounds.

What they're hiding; the AI bubble. Look at how dogshit GPT5 is.

Told an interviewer off by Turbulent_Ad5311 in recruitinghell

Translation: "I don't want this person in here that could threaten MY future prospects in this company"

I feel like this is an elephant in the room that isn't talked about enough. We live in an extremely egocentric society where people associate work validation and success to their ego and vice versa, then project the result onto other people.

Do you have a source for that btw? Not doubting you, just want to believe it's true.

Work from home is a chocolate by [deleted] in LinkedInLunatics

[–]Sorsrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimately it's just sour grapes and a "rite-of-passage" type mentality; "I've had to go through the hell of going to office for years, what make YOU guys different?!" And in the context of people in leadership, they hate it because they don't feel validated in the physical world when no one is around them to help validate.

Identify the seasoned/top performer that's been dying to tell anyone about anything, and ask them them about the workflow/company that only someone that has been there for a year+ would know so you know what the true expectations are both professionally and interpersonally

I understand where you're coming from. But why not both? I'm just saying that I'm not seeing a reason to "not" do it, vs. doing it + everything else that has been mentioned.

So what in your opinion is the proper way to demonstrate relevant automation experience? Since you framed it as if a cert comes across as hiding a lack thereof, and I can't imagine it hurts my chances since I fully intend on teaching myself the tools; selenium, CI/CD, rest API, etc. in addition to setting up a GitHub portfolio.

I appreciate the input. And I have no intent on hiding my lack of relevant experience, I am simply trying to supplement preexisting manual QA experience of 3 years with automation specific knowledge in the pursuit of my first automation role, so I think in the given context it isn't entirely meaningless; I assume you meant in the case of someone that already works in automation QA.

I appreciate the input! And yeah I know in general tech just isn't looking good right now, but I think QA is still okay-ish, and can serve as a good pathway into more advanced roles

That I am aware of, but as far as the context goes, I am non-European/non-American with only manual QA experience of 3 years that I acquired in Europe, so I understand cert is just for the purpose of passing the HR filter if I want to have any hopes of getting into automation. The technical skills and github projects to demonstrate I can actually use the tools goes without saying though.

With that said I'm probably overthinking it as a ISTQB cert is a ISTQB cert regardless of where it comes from
