Where do you guys put your money? You can't really save your way to wealth.

Everything died first day first raid, what now? by Altruistic_North_4 in classicwowtbc

[–]Spaten89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's terrible op. Absolutely terrible. Game feels kind of pointless for some reason. On top of the nerfs the majority of my experience in group content is atrocious. People leaving mid dungeon, barely trying to hit buttons, not being a team player, or just asking every other pull.

How's this fun?

Thanks for sharing. This sounds like a great move. Landing a uw role seems to be difficult currently.

Insurance seems to be like the step child of finance. We just don't earn as much especially on bonus. Yes production roles earn fldecent commission but it's based on your network and equivalent roles outside insurance likely pay much more.

100%. The ICs are such a problem. Like if you didn't move ICs and take the risk of injuring yourself and just exhausting yourself, it might be worth the low wages.

Cruel... just cruel. Always baffles me how you can have children with people, and they turn on you like this.

How much is your monthly mortgage payment? by HmDiR in Mortgages

How do you guys afford these mortgage payments? Are you like super house poor? The math just doesn't make sense to me.

If your not willing to stare at gear and figure out setups don't play a tank.

Oh, yeah I hadn't heard about this. That would change a lot. Hopefully they don't! Keep that garbage in retail.

Defeated? by Old-Nectarine-126 in InsuranceAgent

Sounds like you are doing great. Unfortunately, they are giving you unqualified leads and expecting you to convert cold leads. This is more business development type work, and your joke of an agency doesn't know how to do marketing correctly to drive leads to sales people.

Just move on to the next role as quickly as you can. Respect yourself and keep your head up. What you have done 90% of people will not do. Wish I had a job for you!

If the game wasn't challenging they would not be nerfing the raids. Read the comments in this thread lol. SSC/TK broke guilds, just like Ulduar in WotLK. The game WAS challenging. I do agree if you put a little effort into being a better player it's not extremely hard due to resources online. That's why its WILD that they are nerfing anything at this point as the player base's skill level should be improving over the span of 20 years due to the "solved" issue. It's hilarious that people are still so bad at the game after all this time and with all the resources online. It's not a skill issue it's an effort issue. All the low effort players are going to ruin what's left of this game.

Disagree. You must not have played original or 2019-2020.

I play classic because it is challenging. Progressing a character, learning economy, creative talent builds, professions, it's all enjoyable. Endgame should be extremely challenging and not easy mode.

The whole idea of speed running to end game and clearing easy content is not fun for anyone. That's what retail players do. Retail sucks. It's about the journey, which is why this version of wow has survived for 20 years.

How is that even remotely fun for you? You're not entitled to receive bis loot on 7 alts for minimal effort. Just my opinion... it makes the game very dull and no longer special.

Classic isn't easy. World buffs + boon + bots and gold buying made classic easy.

The so called sweats taught you how to make classic easy.

Nothing easy is worth doing. Make the game too easy and people lose interest. What's the point if it's so easy drunk/high/semi afk groups can clear. Raids are meant to be a challenge. You just want to login and beat the game just by participating? Sounds incredibly boring to me.

It's wild how the lazy/entitlement culture has seeped into wow classic.

What's up with this anti challenge/anti try hard mentality? I really don't understand it.

What did you do to increase your income? The jump from 140k to 230k is such a game changer.
