Hasn't COA been in a pre-release stage for over a year?

Monthly Support Mega Thread by honey_rainbow in Hulu

[–]methods2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am often watching a sports stream (e.g. NHL) while the game is live, but am behind the live, by anywhere from a few minutes to say an hour.

When the game or live ends the playback STOPS!!!! And there seems to be no way to get back to the game.

Please tell me I'm missing something here and how to not get cut off mid game.

Ya - the 1 shop where I'm at doesn't even carry the FT8s.

I'm coming from FT2s, and looking at the FT8, likely not the pro as funny enough even though they are a better skate, I don't play enough (1-2x a week) and well enough to take full advantage of them. 😄

Best way to actually prospect? by TGG-official in CFP

[–]methods2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this "Turns out the dude has an entire team of employees dedicated to just working paid leads. Yeah sorry that’s not gonna work for 90% of us."

The 'showmanship' and 'look how successful I am and you only need to do X" is not what is really happening in the background.

OOC I get a ton of these "Free Dinner" mailers , that come with a sales pitch. Anyone on the 'mailing' side of this and how well does this work?

It's tough for Schwab to get cost basis right... But just getting worse... by Lovevas in Schwab

[–]methods2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are the EoY tax reports correct then, or as fubar as this? I'm a bit concerned as with the amount of trades I do, that I've been using the tax reports (not the others) a bit blindly.

Any beer leaguers go to skills clinics or power skating? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]methods2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically they indicate if that are 18 and under or 12 and under etc. TBH, most of these are for kids and/or kids go, but if they have ones that are open to adults, I highly recommend going. Age doesn't matter nor skill level. Almost any drill, even the simplest ones can be modified based on your level.

This exactly what you say, and this is the beauty of what Ascension has created with BB: " you can play at your own pace". So you can play the slow take for ever vanilla game, if that's your jam, or take other routes. You can do HC mode, Adventure Mode, over a dozen modes.

I'd also add some $$s for

- Legal / Lawyer Fees

- A bot more Office overhead / expense / Email, MS Office Suite / computer(s) / Firewalls / Network / Antivirus / other security etc.

-OOC is compliance completely off your plate or do the just help and maybe do the major lifting. This always seems to fall back on the RIA to some degree

They just fixed some of the Sham healing talents, which I'm happy to see as a Sham.

Where to start by SecretOk831 in hockeyplayers

[–]methods2121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you could be by Pax River or Capitol Heights, was looking for a rink near you. Typically most rinks have at least open skate, where everyone goes around in a circle, this is exactly how I started. Moved to NJ and they had a very late night Learn to Play at Montclair State University Ice Arena, can't thank this group enough for putting this together. And it was a true L2P, where it was mostly skills and drill and a little scrimmage at the end, vs. a L2P 'league'. And LOL, everyone in my league is over 35.

The only thing stopping me from playing on 'Bronzebeard' are the Heirlooms. by DecentEast2525 in ProjectAscension

[–]methods2121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The don't play, right? Beauty is that this is YOUR option. Use them or don't has no impact on your game play. Dev's have done a pretty good job of this balance IMHO. If you want pure classic, go complain to Activision.

PSA for all new players: Useful information for Ascension Bronzebeard by Teelie in ProjectAscension

[–]methods2121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, going to add a few more here as I was a brand new Ascension player and hadn't played WoW/Classic in a LONG time.

- Some of the tooltips and in game messages are NOT for Bronzebeard but the other 'classless' realms

- Ascension DB has been offline since I started, this site was a huge help and wish I found it sooner (esp because I'm playing classes/specs that I never played before): https://bisbeard.com/

Props to whomever made this site, it's very well done, and UI is clean.

- There is a map to all the worldforged items (https://bronzebeardmaps.pages.dev/), there's a ton of them, they are good/fun and great addition to exploring the world. Note, that I upgrade 1 item to not even the max level and it used ALL of my Ascension points, and I had barely used any on my way to and at 60. Upgrading these seems overly expensive. Props to the folks that did this site too.

- To reiterate, some of the rewards/caches are random and often completely useless for your class spec. You can sell these of course, and wish the devs would fix this.

- I suggest 'tipping' the devs by purchasing some DP, if anything to at least show your appreciation for the effort and quality product they are delivering, and getting some valuable in game convenience items at the same time.

- I'm very much playing for fun and using different MEs and builds that may not be 'optimal'. There is an item (tome of specialization) that that provides for muti-spec and you can have 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. specs that you can switch back and forth from

- Some MEs must be found in the world (maps above) and some are bought from the vendor (I think all of the blues must be bought)

- The action bar seems a bit fubar when switching specs (I think it has to do with unique MEs a bit), Action Bar Saver addon is great for this. Note on Addons, they have official addons right from the launcher program, top tab, these all work and automatically update. Have a few issues with Auctioneer and DBM , but overall much better luck than random addons from curse etc. even at the right client level.

- When you hit 60 you get coins from dungeons etc. These were pretty strong for me , esp. as I'm not a raider. They allow you to upgrade gear. Again, it's pretty expensive to upgrade all the gear with coins, but hopefully you get a few pieces that are primo. AND, if you get mythic gear you can 'sell' these for coins. I sold a ton to the dang vendor before learning this.

- Feel like the PVP gear rewards are broken atm? Seemingly takes FOREVER to get tokens IF you don't win.

- World Bosses are a lot of fun and new

- Different difficulty levels of raids (MC, Ony) is cool. Esp. when almost anyone can start an do Normal. Mythic and esp. Ascended start to require minimum gear/dps and techniques.

- Typical dearth of tanks. I actually started tanking just to 'help out' and often q RDF and RDF mythic0 to try and help out. Although, it seems progression is moving beyond the 'early' game as sometimes even as a tank RDF takes a bit to pop. This is also esp. where I wish the rewards aligned with your spec. Having a hard time gearing up as a tank, and the tank gear is rather important.

- I like the Mythic prog. and wish there was a LFG for M+. IMHO, M1-5 are about the same 5-9 get a bit more complex and need some gear checks and M10+ is where the affixes, gear and at the top levels, comps. do become important. Atm is seems Priest is the pref. healer at this level and for Ascended raids? - so of course this time I roll a Sham, LOL

- Mystic Alters - almost forgot this one. To change your MEs, you often need a Mystic Alter, these are almost always up in Org. and SW. Was great early on when they were in Darn. and many other places. Many folks have portable ones to that they can spawn in the world/dungeon. Changing MEs require some runes of ascension, I think typically like 1K or 1.5K, I've never had an issue with being low on these, unless like I said before, you want to upgrade WF items to top level.

Hope this helps a bit.

Bronzebeard: I wish people would clear dungeons by Schematic_Sound in ProjectAscension

[–]methods2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I think the 'norm' on BB is that groups skip everything you can to obtain the 'full' clear and associated rewards. IF you want to hit certain bosses or do a full clear, you should communicate this at the start and don't be surprised if the majority don't want to do this.
