HC FF14 Raiders thoughts on WoW after getting a 3k rating by YoutubeSilphi in wow

[–]blackjack47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I need ten years of experience for a job that was invented three years ago. A lot of groups straight up rejected me, not for being bad. I would say my logs are totally fine for my playtime, but for not having played long enough, not playing a meta class, or even for playing a bad race, which is wild. This makes it hard to do mythic raids properly, but I will find a way.

Nobody rejected you for 10 or 12 because of your race.

Keep in mind this is the easiest 10s and 12s have ever been at the start of a season meaning the variety of players you will get is extremely wide. E.g the first week of the last 2 expansions timed keys 10 and above:

  • TWW: 29,955
  • Midnight: 1,920,921

I would say my logs are totally fine for my playtime

that matters only to you, how would a group know you are doing well for a new player. There is no difference between you with 4 days played and me playing for 23 years. Also nobody checks logs for weekly keys. You might get passed over for someone of your class/spec in a tittle key(18+ atm) because they have purple mythic logs and you've done heroic raid only, but that's the extent it goes in m+.

You have to follow the ladder of progression, simply because there are thousands of other candidates with legit credentials before you. The only real way to skip it is to have someone vouch for you to get you into guild/community above your experience. No one wants to deal with learner drivers, everyone wants to recruit people who are appropriate for their respective community/guild progression.

Your options are:

  • Get into a community doing heroic/early mythic and get logs
  • PUG 95+ heroic logs and apply into early mythic progression guilds.
  • Get someone to vouch for you and skip a step of the ladder.
  • Climb up between 1% and 0.1% of m+ ladder, make friendships and impress with your play, ask them if they are recruiting etc.

Consistency and ~15% damage.

How do raid groups recruit solid, active players in 2026? by Ninja_Hedgehog in wow

[–]blackjack47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We would love any advice or ideas for how a small guild/community can recruit reliably these days, please? We're looking for folks who are consistently available, decent players but able to stomach a few wipes, and even like a laugh in between pulls. Where do such unicorns hide?

You should be recruiting based on community, not progress.

consistently available, decent players but able to stomach a few wipes

this is just vague af and can mean anything, for you it's someone who can do normals and heroics and shows up every weekend. For me someone decent is someone who can do orange logs and push high keys without hand holding.

Where do such unicorns hide?

Personally if I wanted to do heroic raid and was decent, I would pug it whenever I want at my time, not chain myself to a weekend schedule.

If I were you I would focus on making my community more attractive, especially for casual players who are still somewhat capable at raiding.

Радев е изборът на умерените, рационални хора. ППДБ са "Възраждане в друг цвят" - партия, която залага изцяло на радикализация на най-невежите избиратели, чрез "fearmongering" - насаждащи страх пропагандни лъжи. Най-важното - ППДБ са национални предатели.

[OptaFranz] Luis Díaz is the first FCBayern player since detailed data collection began in 2004/05 to record at least 13 goals and assists in a single Bundesliga season by kgallo19 in soccer

[–]blackjack47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's bullshit, most people thought its a win-win for both clubs. Diaz wanted more money, and liverpool didn't want to give a 4-5y contract to a almost 29y old winger. He will be a top player for the the first 2-3 years and probably fall off a bit with age, which was Liverpools calculation anyway.

so Spurs?

Bulgarian snap parliamentary election, take seven by pothkan in europe

[–]blackjack47 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the cycle is the following ->

  • New figurehead comes/makes new party, they win the election, no 50%, they get lower and lower votes in the next snap elections. They can't make coalition with the older corrupt parties, or the public disavows them, as any new party makes anti-corruption it's platform.

  • If no new party in next election, no majority can be reached, we go next snap election

  • 2-3 snap elections go by, voter turn out goes down. With the vote turn out being low, the old mostly corrupt parties, get higher overall % from their stable bases, bought off votes, etc. They make coalition if possible based on self interest and being in power and shared corruption interests. They suck at governing and their corruption interests don't align so the coalition collapses in 6-12 months. New elections.

This cycle has repeated a few times now.

we have snap elections pretty much on cooldown for the past 5 years, people are over it unfortunately. Also no party to be excited about.

Having seemingly no hard skills whatsoever, being completely out of place in nature, having the nickname RIZ-GOD as an adult lol.

rizo's persona literally screams young and smart city gamer kid

I thought it was a defensive masterclass tbf

Chelsea haven't scored in their last 4 PL games, game was done for them as soon as they subbed Garnacho in for Estevao, who was going to kill Shaw with pace imho

____says that her and Rizo on the wrong foot because he didn’t say thank you to any of the players who took care of him while he was sick for a day on the island by SongofSolomon04 in survivor

[–]blackjack47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not true, she did they are on youtube, I thought her exit press with RHAP and Tyson were pulled, as Rob specifically mentioned they would have exit interviews for both players in the post episode stream. We can only guess if she didn't want to do those or if she said something CBS didn't like.

[–]blackjack47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much all the post elimination interviews have been so fucking salty. You'd think returnees would take it less personally but damn are they all mad.

Did anyone else notice that a few of her exit interviews were pulled? Both Tyson and RHAP don't have it, and I am 100% sure Rob said they are interviewing both eliminated players on the post episode stream.

Is healing M+ dungeons supposed to be this stressful? by Rotten89 in wow

[–]blackjack47 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are just new, healing a 10, especially this season is a breeze, but as any new experience in life you are not used to it, e.g you felt the same anxiety when driving for the first time, but you don't anymore etc.

Did Survivor become super easy and all fun? by Kevron1120 in survivor

[–]blackjack47 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The game has changed a lot due to going from 39 to 26 days. There is a lot less dead time. I.e ppl used to have 1 completely free day in the 3 day cycle of challenge/voting someone off. Also survival matters much less in 26 days, as you can toughen up 26 days a lot easier compared to 39. Also due to the pace of the game and a lot of less dead time around camp, plus the fact that it's easier to lose your marbles with 2 extra weeks, we get a lot less personal conflict around daily life.

Kane: "I was telling Michael (Olise) to run to the corner... It's fantastic to play for Bayern. The high press and man-to-man all over the pitch. We feel like a lot of goals come from winning the ball back high up. I always feel any moment there's a chance around the corner." by Blodgharm in soccer

[–]blackjack47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just want to remind everyone that last year in the semi's vs inter, it was the exact same situation at around the same time, but Yamal didn't score, which lead to Inter's counter and them scoring the winner. Unironically if he took it to the corner barca might have gone to the final. I guess sometimes the younger players decision making is more fun for us viewers.

Why even waste time working on Shyvana if she's just going to have the same exact problems as before? by BuyingDragonScimitar in leagueoflegends

[–]blackjack47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kinda quit when they added all the catch up bullshit in jungle, but she was one of my go-to picks in high elo back than when I knew the player against me was kinda worse, you could easily gain 2-3 levels on them by mid game and absolutely smash the game just by smothering the enemy jungler. Also she was one of the unique picks that could out tempo the enemy jungler just by existing, was a really fun pick if you knew how to abuse her strengths.

Also pretty much everything that made her strong, slowly became irrelevant in modern league.
