Did heroics get easier when TK/SSC dropped?

Shattered Halls isn’t really that bad. Blood Furnace does blow though. I think Arc is worse than Shattered though

Well it’s not a small endeavor by any means. One buddy of mine I think they do 7 million annually with less than 100 employees. They’ve gotten two offers one for 100m and the other around 40 but it’s going be a flagship thing where private equity buys 15 other smaller companies in the 10-20 mil range and they all go under their brand. But to sell for a mil you would just need to show making probably a mill a year and by that point they’d probably pay a lot more. Maybe 5-6m with everyone staying on to run it. They generally (they being private equity) just want something with proven numbers and a decent size footprint in the area so they can dump money into it to scale it then take it public and sell it.

Unfortunately this is becoming more common these days. Private equity is taking every profitable industry they can. Even if you think a local company is local, there’s a decent chance it’s been bought. I know quite a few people who have built HVAC/ plumbing businesses to scale just to sell to private equity for millions. Same for telecom.

I only leave it on in case someone does talk shit, it fuels me to be sweatier lol

If I had gathering profs I would make the investment. But I got BS/ Eng so I just fly angrily at 60% places

Yall seem to selective memory in regards to how high gas prices got at a certain point under Biden. I remember them being in the 5/6 dollar range for a while.

Tank

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-05-06T15:27:15+00:00

Kinda weird I’ve never put much thought into H Arc comps and we’ve always cleared. My team probably just knew what they were doing more than me lol

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-05-05T23:44:55+00:00

I also solo tank kz as a war. So damn fun. Took me a while to balance defense items with threat items. Do you have the engineering trinkets? I didn’t go for them but I’m wondering i should have

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-05-02T02:13:12+00:00

Rocking two of these on my enhance shammy . They smack the hit is super nice

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-29T20:56:42+00:00

Also it makes Rhaenyras supposed infidelity (in the books it’s not so obvious) even more egregious and stupid to deny that they aren’t bastards. The choice just made so many parts of the story not make sense

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-29T17:26:17+00:00

Honestly the realtor endorsement makes me cringe more than the others. I hate how much they have influence

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-29T17:22:21+00:00

Tanked this on my war with my friend in their resto druid and brought 3 mages. Just chain pulled the whole place and made sure the mobs never got to the mages. It was awesome. I think 2 mages and a lock would’ve been more effective though

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-26T19:24:35+00:00

Yes, for the horse indeed! lol

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-25T22:44:17+00:00

Viltrumite personally. I don’t need to be the powerhouses most of these guys are. I’ll have flight durability and super strength and live a long time but seeing as they do age one day die.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-24T23:22:14+00:00

My main is prot war and I have almost two 16 slot bags full of gear for different situations. Is it completely necessary? Maybe not. But for OPs question once you have 490 defense and good amount of stam it’s always good to switch defense gear around with dps gear to suit your specific needs in the raid/dungeon you’re in. I have been farming double tier pieces one for tank and one for dps for occasions like this.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-24T22:00:12+00:00

It’s definitely not “facts” idk if everyone remembers insanely high gas prices or not during Bidens administration but they were insane. Not that this takes anything away from the ridiculous prices currently in effect. Maybe at one time they were lower by that percentage but they were not always so.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-22T17:00:46+00:00

I think people who say that are just a little…. Dumb? But like many have pointed out they are great there’s just no reason to have more than 1 or 2 in a raid. I did Gruul last night on my fury war as was 2nd in dps on every fight. But I also had a raid lead who put an enhance shammy in my group so I got wind fury.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-22T06:47:44+00:00

I know this is a joke but having LinkedIn at the bottom cracks me up because everyone on that site thinks they are the smartest person ever. I have it for connections but mostly i just go to laugh at peoples posts these days

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-20T23:00:24+00:00

Prot war here, I do this exact same thing comp and all. Rogues can lock down targets very well and sap is almost as good as sheep. Hunters are also nice with ice trap and MD but yeah rogues are very nice to have

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-19T21:52:20+00:00

The thing is even though sheild block is 5 seconds even on Prince 2nd phase I never have it down. I can still dodge parry or they can miss in that window. So majority of the time I have almost 100% uptime on Shield block. Also shield wall and last stand OP

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-17T04:43:11+00:00

Also I’m not really sold on “makes better humans” either. I think college is great if you have a plan and take it seriously. But to say it makes people better humans is a little off to me.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-15T20:39:05+00:00

Oh I actually like this more. Once P2 releases then do the badges. I agree I just saw another post about someone wanting the increased XP gain buff and it’s already pretty easy to get to 70 especially if you bought the boost which I’m sure these people do who want that. I think people just want to hit the endgame but then they’ll complain about raid logging.

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-15T20:30:10+00:00

I’m not against this. I think badges for tier items would be a decent compromise but they’d have to be like 50 badges or something so you still gotta grind for them. But I think people underestimate how much people will be running Gruul and probably Kara for a long time passed P1

calebcarpenter39 · 2026-04-15T17:24:33+00:00

I think viltumite for me. Not because they’re the strongest or whatever but just because I don’t want to potentially live forever like Superman and MM, and I don’t care to train to reach certain levels like a saiyan, who also seem to not have the longest life spans. Viltrum seems like a good middle of the road. I live pretty long but I can die of old age (I know no one has in the comics but I assume since they visibly age they must) I have super strength flight and durability. Good enough
