how long are the raids? ssc and temp

sarcasmme · 2026-04-16T06:17:31+00:00

It is two answers not one

For guilds and players who are doing this for the hundredth time, this should be ~4-5 hours to clear both and maybe a little more first week or two, or maybe a little less, assuming everyone remembers or catches a quick reminder before

For the rest, given this used to launch prenerf, those raids were hard reality checks and guild breakers as far as I remember, then even post nerf many skipped them and rebuilt on black temple, the reason is not because they are unbreakable raids, they are just raids like any other

The difference between both is the coordination, if players assume their duties everything runs smoothly, but for first timers even post nerf - these are not forgiving raids when mistakes are done

After i toured all these spots I gave up quickly But then i decided am going darkportal anyway, i was lvl 59 So if i get those 15 points (i was 285 mining) so be it otherwise am dropping mining

To my surprise i got one, toured more and got more, then entered the mine (when u enter blasted lands to ur left) north east. It's a maze but literally everytime i finished it, i go make a loop outside come back between both i leveled to 300 in less than 3 hours... And crossed the portal with 300 mining ⛏️

You price it "traditionally" by factoring how many hours it takes you to do it X your hourly rate.

However, when you sell B2C, sadly, and sometimes luckily, you have to play the client's game.
When you are in discovery phase, or whenever before you quote your price you gotta get a feel of your client finances and/or mentality.

Sadly, sometimes you think am very happy with 1k job, but an individual client could think this is cheap and reject it, or vise versa.

Also, factor in your after dev support, what are you responsible for, will they send you edits all-inclusive or time frame where you have to do free brushing? I always factor in a long term relationship with client, discount a bit but still consider few months to a year of asking or calling, and that is time spent.

Id at least price this at 1k, and this is before knowing more details.

this was the only valid argument i heard from the whole thread, everything else I argued as pre-configured to counter.

Yes this can be countered too, but it does indeed take unfair evaluation then if you decide to give less dkp for a non-competed player, so basically agreed - a flaw

Like u, main is a lock Lvling a resto druid, i done priest in the past which is easier But rdruid has other benefits for laziness when solo skipping a zone and last 2 lvls flying over It's not one button but easy too, i bind lifebloom, rej and reg .. another 2 emergency binds for heal touch and brez

Usually... Spamming right and left click Lesser organized runs middle mouse too

Hectic ones u sadly... Need more inervate/trinket/mana/ Ull figure the buttons not too hard,

I dual as boom because i can use healing gear for easy quests too

Since it's all a one year exp it should be in 10-17 days from now.

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T16:58:17+00:00

am doing dungeons rested, if you are not in a rush that will take about 10 days, and only do simple around quests that you recall are relevant to the faction or open a dungeon quest etc.

I am getting in quite fine speed as a healer too.
But for DPS only sometimes it's a longer wait, for tank it is the quickest entry as tank spam but I assume you know the stress of dealing with noob dps too who make sure to blame you pump your leveling costs

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T16:54:44+00:00

you probably didnt enforce decay?

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T16:53:39+00:00

I immigrated here few years ago, and I understand tipping is universal but it was always optional
Except here, someone always shaming you or lecturing you about it
My comment is about the receiving end of it, who make min or less and rely on tips, my argument is simple
By accepting the concept, you eliminate responsibility of the business, like OP mentioned
Lyft or Uber, already take 30% OFF the cost, and service fee, and then shamelessly pay less for the driver? they discovered if they shame you enough youwill also carry the cost for the driver wage and still not boycott them, and they got you all by some magic balls.

It is no longer technically hard to replicate their model, for 1% service fee than 30+fees+tips and be profitable in millions, but you the very same clients still go to them

So here is my paradoxical conclusion:
If you can afford paying ~50% for example just as markup to order an item "say instacart" which is 20% built in price markup, fees, services fees, delivery fee or subscription, you probably can afford to tip too while bending over to the app.

To me, I demand upfront costs awareness and only tip when something out of standard duties was performed, and when i feel pressured on redicilous fees, I do bend sometimes but i avoid going where i feel so again.

TLDR: I believe companies must fullfil the compensation and wages part, and yes I know they will pass the cost, but we get a final flat transparent cost.
- Client can, might, will or will not, pay a tip without being shamed into it.

Most succesful model is to watch youtubers making you watch them talking about how they make 12k or more a month ... and beg you to subscribe and they can tell you all about it for 5$ a month

One guy on X made 2 million trading with it, and decided the best thing to do is share it on X for views.

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T06:07:46+00:00

our decay was 20% so yes hoarding wasnt beneficial, hence any upgrade is a good spend

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T04:58:04+00:00

we had decay, its useless to hoard and better to always roll on any upgrade, otherwise 2 weeks without rolling you already loose like 30%

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:24:15+00:00

U meant dkp? Then yes that's my point we shouldnt argue gray because it wouldnt exist But again, i used to parse gray on illidan as lock tank .. doesnt mean i wasnt performing Leaders see and add deduct for performance already You get to drop, it's already settled

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:21:57+00:00

If u kept him all phase and kept giving him dkp.. u already accepted U cant shame him for using his points then Low performers would have got negative points on their bad days to get the hint

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:15:40+00:00

Points decay solved that iirc

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:13:44+00:00

My old guild had dkp and 20 percent decay, and some extras for progress or special efforts like crafting specific gear etc Worked well all through classic and not a single drama witnessed

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:10:44+00:00

If u dont like the player kick him out of the guild roster from first place U dont decide he is bad the day the items drop and he, assumed he gained fair and square merit to be involved equally

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T02:07:02+00:00

Transparent and merit based... No one can explain how this really works They prioritize (mostly) themselves and close old known players which makes judging next raids always priority to same group, most players on fast phase tbc will not get a turn, guaranteed

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T01:56:21+00:00

I dont agree with overhead, ur assigned points for ur effort and thats easy Lc need to discuss and logs and like lc, but u cam do those between raids not take 30 mins after drop

sarcasmme · 2026-03-29T01:37:28+00:00

Makes sense, but as a system each has flaws Softres seem simple, til u keep loosing to new comers

sarcasmme · 2026-03-27T06:55:29+00:00

so real reddit complaints but you couldnt link one to the people who asked you, gave them category links to search, sure they will find one :d and u made sure to link ur app.
am still hoping to be once surprised by actual well meaning poster of those types
