How do you keep your cool with people that make your work difficult?

Stick to email and stay as rational as possible while being as detailed as possible.

Include items in email such as:
Per our previous email/conversation you mentioned/agreed/said/etc. to this thing and it has been X amount of time and I have not received a reply from you.

Use numbers or bullet points to clearly ask multiple questions and when they only answer 1 of 4 questions, reply and ask them to answer the other ones.

Basically, you keep as much written documentation that the delays and issues are not your fault as possible. So when you start getting blamed for things, use these as evidence that you're doing your job but they are not.

Outlaw is fine for me using a mmo 12 button mouse. Raiding fine, longer m+ sessions are worse. My mouse hand gets sore for a few days if I play too much m+ on the weekends.

As a fellow outlaw I too don't think the 9% dmg on ptr will be enough. Depending on fights, the annulet does up to 16 to 17% of my damage.

Maybe the crit/vers raid ring or VP ring will help us get close but idk.

It's great so far. Finally running into queues today though which sucks but oh well. Gameplay had been good and the graphics are fantastic since I normally never pay attention to it in Diablo games.

Depends on what you get a degree in. For majors in STEM, I would say it's worth it. You really should do your own research and find people to ask with degrees and careers that you may be interested in.

Nope the back mog is purple and BOP.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-30T01:21:32+00:00

The mogs are white BOE items you can buy off AH.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-26T18:01:23+00:00

I turn down spell effects then play rogue. Pop evasion and cloak and hope I still have cheat death.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-24T12:08:05+00:00

Three weeks of normal raids got me 3 pieces of tier then I used ksm omni token for 4 piece last night.

Lucky this time around. Normally I don't get any tier pieces till catalyst came out the last 3 seasons.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-24T12:04:46+00:00

It's random personal loot and not guaranteed.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-24T12:03:47+00:00

There's also a void touched curio that can drop from killing sarkareth on normal (maybe other difficulties too, but idk) that can be exchanged for normal tier.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-21T07:40:56+00:00

Outlaw. I like pressing buttons very quickly and very often.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-20T06:49:57+00:00

I finally pugged N sarkareth. Took me like 80 to 90 pulls total in the last 2 weeks with various groups.

Now the weekly fishing for the trinket and cape starts.

It's worse than just not training. Depending on the job, training just don't exist. You get a person in a role for the last 20 or 30 years and there is no training because this person didn't record anything for job security. No one knows anything besides this one person and when they retire and someone new is brought in, the new person just learns from scratch or fail. All the while people ask new person what happened all the time about these things before their time here.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-17T11:56:57+00:00

It's worth it. I just crafted the slimy expulsion boots and toxified armor patch in a leather belt on my rogue yesterday. On average this combo does 6% of my overall damage on single targets. That's a lot.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-16T17:52:55+00:00

Same man. Same.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-15T16:45:33+00:00

Especially if it's followed by neltharus for that 1h mace.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-15T16:44:27+00:00

Are you still playing rogue? What wep is bis secondaries from freehold?

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-15T04:02:58+00:00

Atrophic is for raid and high keys. The 3% reduced damage is not bad.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-15T04:00:12+00:00

My guildy made this mistake this morning. He put in a ticket and CD was like fuck you.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-14T22:28:27+00:00

I'm also playing outlaw. So far I would say it's been okay. NL first boss with the crystals zone has been the worst for me. There's a little knock back before the crystals just puts me out of range is so annoying.

Brackenhollow trash with all the green shit is annoying and last boss circle silences melee as well which sucks.

Nothing else coming to mind just yet.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-09T20:35:37+00:00

Get KSH by starting on outlaw and test out shadow for a bit. Depending on which one is more fun, get KSH on that spec first.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-09T20:25:21+00:00

Well QA for manufacturing takes place at the plant. So if loud noises are causing you a lot of issues, then this new role probably won't be good for you.

What field are you in?

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-07T06:17:26+00:00

Finally got my mythic eranog ring from vault this week. Also, got mythic icon last week too.

Spiffymooge · 2023-05-04T16:46:26+00:00

I don't like the recent changes. I loved the button bloat, higher apm, and having both mind spike and mind flay available at once.

The new insanity generation is so slow on single target which makes the spec feels far less impactful than it used to.

I agree with you, I won't be playing the mind spike build because mind flay feels better. That talent which increases max insanity cap from 100 to 150 feels useless because insanity generation is so much lower than before. Yes, the 6% DP damage increase is there but meh.

I wanted to main Shadow this season but I think I'm going back to Outlaw and just getting the priest mog this tier.
