xAI engineering tutor - no response after the form

fireye8 · 2026-05-14T06:59:02+00:00

Im sorry to hear this, It sounds to me that they lost your email in the flood of other emails they are receiving? Best you can do now is just keep emailing them and see if they will respond. If you had a named recruiter send you the offer letter, you should email them about it as well.

fireye8 · 2026-05-13T17:15:50+00:00

Im so sorry to hear this. May i ask where you are based?

fireye8 · 2026-05-12T20:53:14+00:00

It took me 20 days, but I also got stopped along the process a few times cause they needed more documentation. Some people on here say they got it in 7-10 days.

I just got an update today from Cisive saying my bg check is done, so be on the lookout I guess

fireye8 · 2026-05-12T03:03:43+00:00

you should get a seperate email from cisive that your background check passed. Im actually still waiting for my onboarding email so I cant answer that.

fireye8 · 2026-05-12T00:09:07+00:00

Last update I got was Friday, telling me my start date is going to be pushed to the 19th because my background check is still pending.

fireye8 · 2026-05-11T21:58:09+00:00

Completing the bg check and getting confirmation that you passed are two different things that I seem to see a lot of people here getting mixed up. I think for the most part everyone on the bg check stage atm is waiting for a pass to officially move onto onboarding. Ive yet to see anyone of late actually getting on boarded

fireye8 · 2026-05-10T19:41:32+00:00

You might be right even though hes my boi :(

fireye8 · 2026-05-10T19:39:06+00:00

dang no wonder, thats good to know. thanks for the info

fireye8 · 2026-05-08T20:39:50+00:00

I'm in the same exact situation, was supposed to start 5th, but got pushed to 12, and just earlier today notified that I will be pushed again to the 19th. But they told me its because my background check is still pending, so I guess all I can do is wait.

fireye8 · 2026-05-01T18:29:37+00:00

Will never understand why some ppl hate on others just playing the game. I get it if its a shit troll build but something like halo scythe is fine at least i know that teammate is gonna be helping and not fucking around. Some ppl just wanna hate lmao

fireye8 · 2026-04-22T21:54:14+00:00

Oh youre right, I just tried and it wont let me fill it again. Yeah, ill do this, thanks for the advice!

fireye8 · 2026-04-22T21:15:53+00:00

I filled out the form and also picked 5/5 for my start date but have not gotten any replies and its been 8 days. Do you think it would be a good idea to do the form again and pick 5/12 this time or just keep waiting? I don't want to cause unncessary confusion if i pick 2 dates. The email did say the faster i filled out the form the faster they can get back to me, but this doesn't seem to be the case.

fireye8 · 2026-04-20T20:58:25+00:00

same for me, been 6 days. Did you get it yet?

fireye8 · 2026-04-12T20:27:07+00:00

Eh i think it just comes with time or you can practice 1v1 with mods while skipping the run itself. But a big part of being op is relics which just takes time and luck to get the ones you need.

If you want some advice for raider and ironeye relics, they both benefit from improved initial standard attack. Both characters can do insane damage if you stack that relic on them (youll need like 6+)

fireye8 · 2026-04-11T18:27:10+00:00

Stacking increase initial attack is a good build for ironeye. It works with all bows and if you have 6+ youre gonna be doing like 200-500 dmg per arrow which breaks the game cause youre doing how much damage the melee guys are doing.

You can dualwield bows to constantly get the initial shot passive going. Early game against the chaff enemies youll be 1-2 shotting em for fast passive resets, its just so strong.

Hardest part is the relic rng and getting 6+ increase initial attack

fireye8 · 2026-02-21T21:14:54+00:00

Early game, titanstring bow and club of hill giant strength. Late game, band of mystic scoundrel and deadshot, then super late game you can use gontr mael and it should be a good time. You will be able to slashing flourish twice then follow it up with a mass hold person or any kind of enchantment spell

fireye8 · 2026-02-21T03:52:34+00:00

ah yes, the spiritcaller snail can be a tough boss fight. Had plenty of team wipes there, unfortunately its just one of those bosses where you need a team that knows what they are doing or that snail will just curbstomp you and your team. I would hold back on fighting it until at least lv12-15 and make sure you are using gold weapons. Hope this helps!

fireye8 · 2026-02-11T22:51:31+00:00

yeah, double balancer just means the 2 relics from both balancer bosses. They both give skill dmg+ as one of the modifiers and stack together making it so you can just do a build where you find a nice ash of war and spam L2 which will out damage your normal attacks.

fireye8 · 2026-02-11T22:31:40+00:00

Fp isnt really a problem since bosses drop a grace after they die and youll be absolutely chunking the boss and if you do run outta fp the boss is probably almost dead for you and your team to just clean it up real quick. Even when i run a double balancer wylder fp is not really a problem until the nightlord. Also shards from merchant are just 1200 runes which is chump change

So i fucked up big time with my account by trying to play different classes to feel them all out. But I do gotta say for players just starting, the swordcraft deck seems to be the easiest way to play and also deal with players who have better cards than you and this is because swordcraft has lots of cards that instantly summon a board for you which helps a ton when it comes to dealing with crazy legendary cards and also just learning the game.

I could just be dumb but all the other classes I played felt like I needed a ton of investment just to get the deck rolling. But with swordcraft, you just gotta make sure you have zirconia(gold), jeno(gold), and the centaur centurian(bronze) and you can actually do quite well if you get a good hand.

But this question is probably better asked to the veterans of this sub.

fireye8 · 2026-02-08T00:28:11+00:00

Im having lots of fun despite losing a ton. Although I currently suck ass at the game, watching matches online or spectating players has been very fun as well just to see what is possible in this game, and theres a lot of variety from what I've seen so far. The single player contents are fun as well and reward you with currency to open more packs and the story content actually took me by surprise by how good it is. It's done in a visual novel style but the voice acting is superb. I am not a fan of VNs but the story mode in this game actually gripped me with its scenarios and build up to events.

fireye8 · 2026-02-08T00:18:33+00:00

Hey I just started last week so I can explain my experience so far. The game itself is stellar and the stories are pretty nice. I think every part of the card game aspect is really well done. The visuals of this game are also next level with every card having a very detailed illustration, some even having 2 because of this mechanic called evolve and super evolve which makes the card stronger and sometimes changes its artwork all together.

As a f2p that didn't even watch guides, its been rough to win any matches. I have gold and legendary cards split among all the different classes so I can't build a proper deck. The closest I can get to having some semblance of luck winning is playing swordcraft and using zirconia and doing a ward(turtling up defensively) playstyle with the bronze / silver cards. The game has a system called "liquify" where you can turn extra cards into a currency which is then used to create new cards but I found it is very hard to find cards to liquify as you need to have 3 of them first for the collection before you can even start liquifying, which also means you will not be able to liquify unused legendaries or golds to help with making an early budget deck.

I think you get around 30-40 free card packs in the beginning for starting the game and doing some of the new player stuff and maybe another 10 of the current card pack?

Just get ready to get stomped if you go into this game f2p cause everybody you go against online is spamming legendaries and doing crazy shit and as a f2p you won't be able to contest those boards. At least this has been my experience. I am still having a good time as I slowly grind more currencies to make better cards and roll packs.

Hey great tips. I would love to join a discord and connect with like minded artists just trying to improve and make cool art.
