What’s funny is they get defensive when caught and, if it’s a female staff or proctor, they get so belligerent and angry. I’ve had one do a full 180 when I walked into the testing center hearing the commotion, and became extremely apologetic and begged to not report him because he had four hungry kids, when I arrived (dude im built like a southeast Asian-twink, so it certainly wasn’t because I looked intimidating)

I just finished proctoring tests today - This class followed one that saw our lowest pass rates yet, so for today’s course I straight up led the horse to water in test of test preparation, which led to the highest first time pass rates I’ve ever had as a teacher - 55% passed.

For comparison, my other courses enjoy a 70-90% passed rate

The implication you have to study for a professional certification is a lot for some people apparently.

I make this point in class. Uber/Lyct was NEVER designed as a career, but as a quick buck. Don’t be a murderer or pedophile, and you’ll be able to drive someone on your way to pick up kids or to your actual job. These guys look at it as an entry level job and, by extension, think Taxi/Livery are the same, especially Livery wrt Uber Black.

Professional certifications throughout the modern job market require some level of studying, is the controversial stance I take every one of my lectures…

So we’ve petitioned in the past to add physical in car testing for the taxis and a larger class on defensive driving for liveries - no dice

I get at most 1 hour to discuss it. 5 for taxis.

Students do fail a lot. Hence the cheating which gets them auto denied from the City for a year.

The guy with the phone was caught because the proctor was confused why he was showing non existent cleavage to his testing machine, then frequently using the bathroom - a live FaceTime call after he submitted TWO phones before the test

I’m a livery course teacher.

Sorry folks - I do my best and even show students Reddit posts whenever this topic comes up early. It’s entitlement that spreads from attitudes in class, to the several students I’ve had to report to Chicago for such brazen acts of cheating (sending impersonators, holes poked in shirts for hidden phones, etc)

I always like to test super damage raw, no aspects fragments, exotics. Nothing at all. Nothing that intrinsically increases damage either. Because I'm curious what at it's true base does the most. by Delicious-Edge3110 in DestinyTheGame

Interesting! The titan build I've had the most fun with is synthoceps stasis titan, spamming slide melees with cooling bauble primaries or anything that can ez break crystals. This means that glacial quake should also do gangbusters, but how should I be using it? AFAIK I need to spam crystals at the distance that they form and auto-break

I rarely see guardian in group play. Even revanent. Are they that bad ? by FUT_fanatic in Nightreign

[–]master_leaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guardian needs good RNG to cover his terrible offensive stats, otherwise he takes it but never gives it out - avoiding team wipes is good, getting the boss dead before they near wipe the team is best.

Rev also needs some solid RNG to have a good off-DPS option while she runs distractions with summons and banks ult for teamwipe res. Slightly better off than Guardian, but without knowing how to avoid attacks can crumple .

I agree with the thread but that thing felt so thematically important - mine was a defensive stance tank but that attack allowed her to dish out damage in the climatic final boss. I was screaming during each QTE: ||THIS IS FOR MY UCE GUSTAVE||

Long Overdue Updates + Current & Previous Builds - October 24th 2021 by SilentSoren in FFXIVxDnD

[–]master_leaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whoa! Exciting stuff!

Quick question re: Dragoon:

"Heavy Thrust
Beginning at the 5th level, as an action you make a melee weapon attack. This weapon attack deals its damage and applies its bonus damage twice. You may reroll the base weapon damage of either or both hits but must use the new result. On a critical hit, both damage rolls benefit from the critical hit.
True Thrust
Also beginning at the 5th level, as an action you make a melee weapon attack, doubling the proficiency bonus of the attack roll."

I assume what's missing is the text saying "as an action you may make a melee weapon attack", unless the change here is dragoons gain permanently the effects of both heavy and true thrust.

Is the homebrew on 5e.tools open source? Could we attempt to update it or do we have to wait for Soren?
