    I grinded the waiter subclass for a couple years and it honestly helped so much to get rid of some major charisma debuffs that I spawned in with and only increased my already good fortitude stats. I think most players would benefit from this side quest regardless of your endgame goals.

    • @verify5610

  • @theslanderousgent4475
    @theslanderousgent4475 Před 4 měsíci +3

    I’d just like to make an addendum, that grinding hard in the food and drink sub classes can in fact open up managerial quest’s which are much more viable when entering the mid to late game.
    The money and XP is low for a long time but can rapidly increase at the cost of larger de-buffs and a respec into a more intelligence focused build.
    Sincerely, a bartending and waiter player grinding the promotion subquest

    I'm currently in the retail subclass for the last 6-ish patches. With my already born with high extrovert passive I managed to grind a high charisma stat enabling me to engage with almost any customer NPC and co-player retailers. I have however, gained a de-buff for becoming increasingly frustrated over sloppy work and disregard for rules and guidelines that I in previous patches wouldn't have cared nor noticed about. I think I'll be grinding this subclass for a few more patches before trying out a new Hospitality subclass as the monotone work really drains my mana/mental strength quicker and quicker by each patch. I'm thinking of grinding a language add-on to try a Hospitality subclass that deals with language bridges, which I believe will lead to increased work variety.
    Cheers, Liaker.

    Mained hospitality for the past 8 years, I’ll never say I regret it, but I’m glad I changed classes. I did my time, and I think a lot of people would benefit from the perks that come with maxing out the skill tree, but you definitely begin to see diminishing returns as the buffs haven’t rolled around yet. Cooking is a major part of the game and it helps to build up your Charisma stat too, but if you want earn more GP without having to afk the same enemy for 60+ hours a week, I’d look to level a different class…

    Unfortunately, the classism mechanic present in the current meta means that the amount of people who actually personally know hospitality mains is skewed disproportionately low. This makes the general public more vulnerable to the propaganda debuffs thrown out by business mains during strike questlines, notably including the abridged tipping rule section. In reality, the current meta for tips is to combine them with an exemption to the Minimum Wage game rule, which turns the income of hospitality mains perilously inconsistent with the absence of a livable base level. In low social security metas in particular this applies a powerful Precarity debuff on the service mains, severely reducing their stats during negotiation events. This is why the union factions are important, as the law mains they provide are generally immune to this status.
