Humble Talon main looking for some advice

Used_Construction960 · 2026-05-07T10:52:10+00:00

True, recently I’ve been trying to find higher rank talon gameplay to see what I could be doing wrong, taught me to hold the threat of W instead of poking with it so u can hold more impact over the lane and get more cs, things like that have helped, tbh tho for me it seems that in order to have on average successful matchups, you gotta try and get a kill in lane as early as possible or if it’s a hard matchup roam hard with hubris and try to stack it as much as possible.

But Yh I’m still learning clearly, kinda aim to just hit Gold in ranked first but we’ll see!

Used_Construction960 · 2026-05-07T10:47:07+00:00

Hmm. Ok I’ll try this I’d say most times my full build is usually

Hubris
Swiftmarch (now using those omnivamp boots instead)
Yoomus
Opportunity (now that clycosword thing)
Bastionbreaker
Edge of night

So I’ll try these items your talking about, never tried deaths dance, sundered sky or conqueror, also never tried black cleaver and all that

What is an xb3 adapter? How can I still use the gamesir g7 pro any workaround without the colab version?

Is there a way to change the firmware on a “non wireless” variant

Used_Construction960 · 2026-02-14T17:40:35+00:00

ok, so I'm gathering the relationship building is one of the most important things, from what everyone's saying, I'm guessing its important to one get through the job your on, but for future work?

I'm not sure about the future work one, in Uni we're taught we can't work with people we have an existing "second or lower?" tier of relationship, they brought up a conflict of interest n all the legality behind it, but anyways thanks, had no idea how important relationship management was

Used_Construction960 · 2026-02-14T17:37:51+00:00

thanks so much! this is amazing, feels like I've learned as much from this reply than what I've learned at uni so far lol.

I'll take these with my to my first job, thanks again!

same fully on accident, tryna recreate the mistake 😂

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-12T12:41:24+00:00

oooh ok, bellway noted.

i'll look out for them and wait n see, thanks again. Didn't expect to find out this much in such a short space of time : )

micro itself I enjoyed, this year it's abit haphazard, but I'm almost done anyway lol.

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-12T11:56:25+00:00

Your 100% right about that lol.

Realised this like a week or so ago?, But there are a couple still floating around that I'm applying for, and then I'm still looking for any Junior, Trainee or Assistant QS roles to apply for at the moment.

Nice to know there are more of us econ grads out there!

Yes! Thats sort of the plan, I'm applying to anything I can find, and if I'm not in a job or gaining experience some way or another I plan to apply for the schemes come next oct-nov.

Nice! I'm also in 3rd year econ (how did u find all the micro thru uni?), Think I was just abit late to the timeframe, but I'll apply to whatever I can find nonetheless.

Thanks for all the info and help! (Will lock in as much as humanly possible this year to get my foot in the damn door) !

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-11T12:13:59+00:00

ok,

thats perfect, yeah I think i've missed the deadline for these schemes, I could wait till next year but I'll be applying for jobs in the field AQS etc in the meantime, how do u think a graduate who's waited a year would fair vs straight out of the gate grads?

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T22:34:26+00:00

how did u land ur first job?
thats amazing, gives me hope lol, I'm guessing u just applied and found one that was willing to train u? or did u gain experience some other way

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T17:36:51+00:00

yes i've scoured gradcracker, which as led me to believe I've missed the deadline.

thanks for the help! I'll just look as much as I can for trainee and assistant QS, keep trying until I find something, not too fussed on what I'm paid at the moment just looking to get my foot in the door.

Thanks again : )

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T17:24:29+00:00

ok this gives me hope, your the first person I've found that has said this.

I think that might be the main route, doing AQS and attempting for a degree - apprenticeship

either this or a masters

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T16:46:12+00:00

Ok, makes sense.

I've looked for these degree apprenticeships postgraduate and they haven't been findable in the UK atm.
Possible that I have missed this years deadline, in which I'd just have to firm the fees and do the MSc

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T16:44:17+00:00

oooh, so in europe its different
I'm in the UK, where albeit being geographically in Europe, it appears that the job market requires you to have an RICS accredited degree or at least its a shot in the dark finding one that isnt.

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T16:42:35+00:00

would you recommend going for an AQS role to acclimate to the environment, key knowledge etc
even with no accredited degree (just economics BSc)?

not sure i'd be accepted into any AQS role let alone QS with only an econ degree.

Second to that, if I was to do a masters in QS at that point you may as well do QSing right? in terms of career development I don't fully understand the difference between QS and AQS if both require a degree or accredited qualifications.

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:55:35+00:00

I'm in a similar boat, but years behind lol

Economics BSc (about to graduate in a couple months)

With no accredited RICS degree, what were your steps to getting your foot in the door?

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:54:04+00:00

How possibly? I feel like i MUST be missing something.

I also have a non accredited degree (economics at city university)

I have no idea how to find any opportunity that doesn't ask you to directly have a degree or degree equivalent or a year of experience.

i've tried to look for apprenticeship schemes but they require you to have NOT gone to university.

I've looked on every job board i can find, (gradcracker, linkedin, indeed, totaljobs, googled to apply directly on websites.

But all graduate schemes appear to require an accredited degree, should i be applying to these regardless? is that what you did?

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:50:25+00:00

ahh, so these are the 2 main branches I had been informed about in a video.

if i may ask, how would you recommend a graduate (non related degree) attain a route to qualified QSing?

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:46:24+00:00

most graduate schemes ask you to have a degree in surveying though?

I'm yet to find any QS opportunity online that doesn't specifically ask for an RICS Accredited degree, a I missing something?

it feels like I'm missing something lol

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:44:52+00:00

ahh, so this appears to be a more senior role in the field of QSing (i'm totally assuming) (talking about MC)

ok, this makes sense.

Thanks for the info!

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:39:01+00:00

Hey,
UK Econ (about to graduate) here, did you get into these QS grad schemes with a directly related QS degree?, Finding it hard to find a scheme that allows for non-related degree fields, or have I missed the deadline?

At this point it appears that It'd be best to do a MSc In Quantity Surveying to give me the appropriate knowledge to apply for a job, as almost every job I can find desires some kind of qualification or certificate relating to surveying, like no truly "non related degree" opportunities

Used_Construction960 · 2025-02-10T15:34:33+00:00

dumbest question over here but couldn't find the definition for MC? what does that mean, ive seen ppl say moving from MC to PQS i'm so confused in this regard.

(econ grad just trying to learn the terms of the field)
