Not sure why they randomly decided to make them super common. That wasn’t part of the dev notes yday

its worded bad, its 3x from dossiers

its just 3x more common from demons

my cc is getting spammed with contract drops now because the GE guide hasn't caught up to the real price kekw

So contracts going to 50k each?

now can they make white oathplate gm req?

pliant haven
upbeat moss

now that contracts are dirt cheap

If they dirt cheap then the system only exists to torment ironmen

I was hoping we'd go at least one day of no completions, unlucky

upbeat moss
#

shoutout to wow race to world first sometimes being weeks lmao

#

(mostly due to dogshit balance, and the fact that some of those raids are completed by those guilds is kinda insane)

analog crow

mostly speaks of how much some people have mastered the osrs engine

upbeat moss
#

whens the last time there was something with no completions on day 1?

analog crow

no matter what you throw at them they'll crush it

how long did it take for a first cox/tob/toa completion?

This soulflame horn is absolute trash. Jagex do something

@winter hearth

Like anything other than diluting more items into the ground

to be fair, saying its trash and not giving alternatives is exactly zero percent helpful

Using to always land maul on corp or something. It turns defense reduction weps into 75% spec but then you can use spec pot to get benefits of landing the specs

how many people do we think play the game as iron to strictly solo everything?

now a days

hard axle
true talon
sacred oracle
#

every single update, irons constantly want to warp it until it benefits them at the expense of mains, and condescend to mains who buy things as if that isn't the original way to play

hasty shard
rain fulcrum
#

Ok bro

hasty shard
#

i think we really need a closed loop for the next end-game update

#

stop tagging on earlygame avenues to the content
pleae

true talon

Bots, rwt, economy issues, gp/h loaded bosses and content. All causes by mains.

analog crow
#

trueeee

hard axle
#

As I’ve already told you in dms, irons RWT just as much via services kekw

rain fulcrum

Blaming every main for rwt is some real neckbearding

hard axle

Don’t act like irons are innocent

frail bough

idk why this even has to be a conversation lol

frail bough
analog crow

also yeahs irons rwt all the time

#

okay maybe not all the time

hard axle
#

there’s bad portions in both community

true talon

Irons can’t trade so sounds like services are the problem

hasty shard

blame boaty for inventing ironman clueless

hard axle

And then crash it to nonexistence

#

Torstols?

analog crow
#

Bring back ultimate main mode from rsc

sacred oracle
#

i wouldn't care about irons if they didn't keep skewing game updates then complaining about it endlessly

i don't really care how they play the game

i just wish they'd shut up about it for once

Iron should just not be a factor for balancing just like it was not a factor for balancing everything before 07

remember those being like profitable to get from their actual sources kekw ?

#

Half the reason supplies and pvm drops are the way they are is irons not wanting to have to slowly skill for them
Mains don't give a shit about sourcing our items we just buy them

rain fulcrum
#

Bro the new bis armor literally drops in chunks

pliant haven
#

Why do we appeal to iron men who decided on their own to take part in a special way to play the game

true talon
#

Only system two systems exist to cater to irons and that’s scar ess and ingot pathways

hard axle
#

I use more than 1.5k divines doing a few boss hunts

rain fulcrum
#

So that irons can be happy

minor whale

All dry protection mechanics are explicitly for irons

Fuk ironmen

You literally left out path breakdown

cloggers are worse than irons

hard axle
#

^

sacred oracle
#

nah it's not for cloggers

hasty shard
#

smh

rain fulcrum
#

Well we shouldn't give a single shit about cloggers either for balance

sacred oracle
#

cloggers don't care

#

and a lot of the avenues of dry protection don't actually give you clog

#

they just let you make or otherwise get an item

hard axle
minor whale
#

Cloggers are also single digit % of the game, not ~20% like irons

#

Also yeah that doesn't go on your clog when you make it

#

What the fuck are we saying brk

rain fulcrum
#

Probably less than that

damn yall are making me want to abandon my ironman lmfaoooo

got me all riled up against myself

hasty shard
hard axle
true talon
#

Sounds like a problem for mains and not me

hard axle
#

You’re advocating for self botting

sacred oracle
#

also why should real players get less value out of what they earn in game because other people are cheating

true talon
#

No all botting is bad

hard axle
#

god you’re inconsistent as shit

true talon
#

But if there was no rwt then there be no bots

sacred oracle
#

i don't even know what you're saying at this point man

you're like iron ren

Good shit, finally said something agreeable

ban irons

tender harness

true talon
#

It looked like they did a great job from the bot busting stream

#

Was hardly any end game bots

small anvil
#

lol "we didnt ban any end game bots so they dont exist"

#

🙃

tough nacelle
#

Reality is ironman falls apart late game and can't be catered to other than remove oathplate armour drops and instead drop a plate

small anvil
#

bot busting stream is entirely performative too

true talon
#

Ya obviously they slipped though the cracks lll

tough nacelle
#

2 for body legs 1 for head

true talon
#

Iron end game is self torture

analog crow
small anvil

i didnt watch

tough nacelle
#

You can't balance a normal person's playtime with endgame iron drops

small anvil
#

but like

true talon
#

Mid and early are so good

tough nacelle
#

Legitimately impossible

analog crow
#

The bot busting stats they published was nice though

tough nacelle
small anvil
#

if they can just decide to go around rounding up bots

small anvil
#

why not do it not on stream all the time

#

🤔

tough nacelle
#

But they gotta not cater to irons for late game bossing or we'll continue to get rough updates

hasty shard
#

why is it cranked so hard consistency wise we do not need oathplate split into 2520 shards lol

analog crow
#

Like this stuff is very nice to see

tough nacelle
analog crow
#

Good transparency

small anvil
#

shards are that way cuz its contribution split

true talon
tough nacelle
#

Should just be a singular plate drop

minor whale
tough nacelle
#

Craft that plate into armour

last onyx
rain fulcrum
#

We don't need dry protection

#

Just give us a normal drop table

hasty shard
#

clueless oh right i wonder if they'll make flares give contribution!!

#

surely

small anvil
#

shards would be fine if it wasnt tradeable

hasty shard
#

agreed

tough nacelle
analog crow
#

What is a "normal" drop table? Nex? Phosani? Vork? Vard?

rain fulcrum
#

Vard is not normal

#

The rest are

minor whale
#

Not dry protection

hasty shard
#

yama does feel tuned a bit too high for common high value drop

tacit pendant
#

The current system would be fine if it accounted for shards a little better.

tough nacelle
minor whale
#

Dry protection is just silly shit added for irons

last onyx
hasty shard
#

extend to pre buff contract drops from demons too

small anvil
#

i'd rather have things like halberd pieces

minor whale
#

Who are afraid of going dry for Bowfa except at other content

hasty shard
#

why are we letting shitter accounts kill lesser demons for a 5m drop again

tough nacelle
#

Arraxor

small anvil
#

it's visible dry protection

#

and you dont lose an entire vestige to double death

small oyster
#

I imagine if shards weren't tradable then mains would complain that they feel they have to go back until they can craft 1 full piece

small anvil
#

🙃

steel aspen
#

Can we talk about the game update in the game update chat, instead of main / ironman mode hate?

hasty shard
hasty shard
#

maybe you do at whisperer ig

tough nacelle
#

The contract system

hasty shard
#

cause whisperer has like normal drops

tough nacelle
#

Dropping guaranteed rewards is silly

hard axle
#

Contracts and Orbs will honestly never be balanced because of its consumption of said resources

hard axle
#

It will always be pissing someone off or everyone off

tough nacelle
#

And cosmetic only

rain fulcrum
#

I don't mind orbs since they drop from the content

#

Instead of lesser demons

tough nacelle
#

Orbs are beyond horrid

hasty shard
#

reminder that its actually fine because if you don't do the content, the issue doesnt exist anymore apparently
just unlearn object permanence

rain fulcrum
#

Wdym mains can't afford to?

#

Plenty of mains have blorva

hard axle
#

Like how infernal cape isn’t a cosmetic

hasty shard
#

you can afford to get blorva reasonably, but nobody can really afford to just kill them for the sake of it/ pethunting

tough nacelle
hard axle
#

I wish Blood Torva had some cool effect

rain fulcrum
#

Too bad then

sacred oracle
#

most mains also don't have the skill to do it

rain fulcrum
#

Go get some money

hasty shard
#

khazard using over 2b just on orbs 😭

tough nacelle
sacred oracle
#

i'm not seeing the problem

tough nacelle
sacred oracle
#

it's a cosmetic that costs a couple hundred million to get on avg, would you say? i don't know what average is these days

#

i think it's still a lot cheaper than a crystal crown

tough nacelle
#

Like I wish colo was 0 rewards until 1 completion but no death fee

fossil epoch
hasty shard
tough nacelle
#

Until you beat it once

last onyx
#

why are contracts in the game?

slender vapor
tough nacelle
#

Gating difficult content behind a gp sink is silly

minor whale
#

I mean
20 extra kills for a craftable Oathplate isn't a big deal at all lmao

#

Oh fuck 2 more hours

hasty shard
fossil epoch
sacred oracle
#

i think it's a combination of costing money and needing skill that makes it prestigious

#

but prestige is really up to the person

slender vapor
rain fulcrum
#

The purpose of orbs is mostly just a wealth equalizer

sacred oracle
#

like, i think a 3a pick is prestigious, but some people are like eww all he needed was 14b gp

rain fulcrum
#

I thought it was fine when it came from dt2 bosses itself

hasty shard
#

downvoting this guy for saying 0.80 and not 0.8 btw

last onyx
sacred oracle
#

if you're "learning" the game, you aren't doing yama

#

it's not a concern

tough nacelle
plush gull

makes no sense

fossil epoch
hasty shard
tough nacelle
#

They're not expensive enough to add much gp for kc

hasty shard
#

🥹

#

so impactful

tough nacelle
#

But too expensive for improving at the game

rain fulcrum
#

They transfer wealth from rich ppl with nothing better to do to midgame players without adding gp inflation or dumping Skilling supplies

sacred oracle
#

how many significant digits to we need to discuss osrs

#

i say 6

rain fulcrum
tough nacelle
rain fulcrum
#

Which adds like 2m/hr to the bosses

#

Not that quick

sacred oracle
#

and yeah, what como said

tough nacelle
#

Now they're what? 400kk?

#

500?

analog crow
#

gnome just did the sigil contract

tough nacelle
#

People make more the better they get at the game

sacred oracle
#

i see people hear talk about the prohibitive cost of attempts, but i've just never seen someone go for blorva and really complain that much about it

tough nacelle
#

And saying hey you can't do this cool boss

sacred oracle
#

they complain about it the same way i complain about being triple rate for a unique at yama

tough nacelle
#

Say you have 1 mega rare

hard axle
#

so it’s even less

tough nacelle
#

Are you gonna dump all your gp to ATTEMPT a boss with no reward?

sacred oracle
#

by the time you're at the point to consider blorva, you almost certainly have the gp to blow on blorva

#

and the expense is directly related to your skill

tough nacelle
#

The annoying part is you can't just do the content

sacred oracle
#

better you are, the less it costs

hasty shard
#

honestly no

tough nacelle
#

Lol not even

hasty shard
#

reason being torva is like a last purchase

sacred oracle
#

the gatekeeping is part of the prestige, that's kinda the point

tough nacelle
#

I don't even have close to the gp for the boss

hasty shard
#

im 100% getting kit before torva and im a shitter

tough nacelle
#

But can do the other difficult content in the game

tacit pendant
#

Torva being expensive is also a huge reason. Why do it at all until u have the item it goes on

analog crow
#

the contracts are dirt cheap now don't worry

hard axle
#

I used to be pro-orbs, but now I’m definitely against it cuz 1. Pet rates don’t get increase 2. Uniques rates increase don’t offset the increased time 3. It’s basically dead content after Torva

sacred oracle
#

i was assuming you wouldn't go for the torva kit until you could afford torva

#

it made sense at the time

tough nacelle
#

Eh it's not about the kit

#

It's about fun imo

#

Fun is fun

hard axle
#

after colosseum, I firmly believe content shouldn’t be 1nd

tough nacelle
#

Shouldn't be punished for learning

rain fulcrum
#

the reddit ppl complaining about orbs are not good enough to kill the boss anyway

sacred oracle
#

so you're complaining that the cosmetic for an expensive piece of armor isn't accessible to people who are too poor to afford the armor?

#

i don't think i'm on board

hasty shard
#

wonderful strawman as if me and rat and others are 1500 shitters wow

hard axle
minor whale
#

It's a weird situation now with contracts
If the cosmetic contracts are dirt cheap, why even have them be consumed at all
Is 100k/contract really gonna be worth anyone doing except for it being obnoxious that they take up an inventory slot to do?

tough nacelle
hasty shard
#

wonderful conversation when tf do i go mox mode and just flame people 😭

tough nacelle
#

Is gated behind price tag

#

Like say to enter raids 4

hasty shard
#

plinx slap me later or something preempt it

tough nacelle
#

Is 1m

#

You shouldn't make fun good content

hard axle
tough nacelle
#

Then say actually, you can't even try it to get better

plush gull
#

imagine if toa costed 1m for every 10 invo you do

so you can only do 0 invo entry mode for free, and 400 toa costs 40m to attempt every time

wont that be fun

minor whale
#

That's a bit of an over exaggeration of the issue

tough nacelle
#

Then to mitigate that we have this contract system

sacred oracle
#

ymmv

tough nacelle
#

Which seems silly

sacred oracle
#

certainly, other people do appear to agree with you

tough nacelle
minor whale
#

Locking bosses behind some sort of ticket isn't inherently bad but literally all you get for it is cosmetics and that sucks ass

tough nacelle
#

This is billions

#

Of gp

sacred oracle
#

yeah, it's annoying the only reason to do woke boss at all is the cosmetic

#

at least an improved pet rate would be something

hasty shard
#

locking bosses behind some sort of ticket isn't inherently bad which is why obor/bryo are getting checked out in the sweep up yeah

plush gull
#

tbh at this point im more gatekept by the bonfire update than orbs

im ready to high alch my blorva kit now but i dont have the firemaking req

jagex cmon

sacred oracle
#

if they don't want to reward with gp, could at least have done that

tacit pendant
#

Nobody is spending billions on orbs or contracts lmfao

tough nacelle
#

For orbs? That's not unreasonable near release

small anvil
#

port spent billions on orbs

hasty shard
sacred oracle
#

i do not think many people are spending billions on orbs for blorva

hasty shard
#

but you know

tough nacelle
#

Contracts probably not

lament peak
#

Contract Yama not being weak to demonbane weapons assures that the content can only be done by players in near bis 😭

analog crow
#

Real why are you outrage baiting yourself

hasty shard
#

800k entry ticket

tough nacelle
#

Gear check

#

Isn't the same as cost to attempt

sacred oracle
#

isn't it tho

#

what's the difference

tough nacelle
#

Cost to attempt says you lose money for TRYINF

sacred oracle
#

gear check means you spend billions on bis or whatever right

#

why is one different from the other to you

tough nacelle
#

Gear check says this will be really hard to do unless you have gear

plush gull
#

what are people even talking about anymore

tough nacelle
#

One encourages progression

hasty shard
#

they really want you to shadow camp the contracts i swear kekw

sacred oracle
#

what part is slowing progression?

tough nacelle
#

Orbs and contracts encourage you to say, no I won't try this because it'll waste my gp to learn now

#

When I need to upgrade my gear

plush gull
#

gear is temporary, fun memories are forever!

sacred oracle
#

from that point of view, spending money on melee upgrades slows your progression for doing ranged bosses

tough nacelle
#

If you send it and say wow this is really cool, but I think x or Y gear would make it easier

#

You can sell it if you want, or use it elsewhere

#

Burning gp to try is not the same as improving your gear

#

Contacts either need to be so common they shouldn't exist

#

Or rare enough to be cost prohibitive

plush gull
sacred oracle
#

wouldn't being so rare they cost even more just make the problem you see worse?

plush gull
#

but tbh idk what either of you are talking about

sacred oracle
#

then why are you commenting on it, ren

tough nacelle
plush gull
#

why is tramayne trolling u

tough nacelle
#

Because they don't encourage players to try to get better at the game

#

Whereas gear checks DO encourage you to improve at the game/upgrade your character

lament peak
#

Im not in the cool kids club of having been spooned a mega rare so I'm unable to participate, kinda shitty 🤷‍♀️ demonbane weapons are already only useful in a few places...now some demons are immune...cool

@sacred oracle dunno how many blorva folks you talk too, but the ones who did it legit for the most part disliked the system as it was for a cosmetic. The ability to send it consistently after is limited

#

@minor whale I know you said everyone opinion should count, but tbh, it should be limited if you haven’t attempted or completed said content, in osrs at least

spiral storm
obsidian venture
#

Just makes it a weird discussion when folks are speaking on behalf of someone else’s pov

obsidian venture
plush gull
#

i have multiple awakened vard kc on leagues including perfect awakened axe enthusiast attempts, im an expert

obsidian venture
#

They can’t even get content correct for endgame pvm

plush gull
#

at least half an expert

obsidian venture
#

So I doubt that would happen

#

Maybe delve might have a chance

unreal plover
#

leagues awakened vard is at least 10% as hard as regular vard on main game

upbeat moss
obsidian venture
#

If it’s based on something actual sure

#

But half these discussions here are from folks who aren’t impacted from these decisions

plush gull
#

@tacit pendant bad clown emoji, whats ur awakened vard kc on any gamemode

#

less than me huh?

sacred oracle
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

obsidian venture
unreal plover
#

i am impacted and i can say the fights are needlessly long

spiral storm
unreal plover
#

they did not need to increase his hp and stats

#

because you already have lower dps

obsidian venture
obsidian venture
#

Not a healthy approach

#

But did the same thing

#

👍

unreal plover
#

i dont see how toa being rewarding is related

upbeat moss
#

dont worry, yama still in beta

obsidian venture
upbeat moss
#

shits gonna be so good in a month when hes done

obsidian venture

High lvl toa is just high hp and def

unreal plover
#

oh if u mean jagex never learning from their mistakes

#

yeah

small anvil

i think goblin was talking about rewards there sadly

obsidian venture
small anvil

rather than the scaling

obsidian venture

2nd part was moreso in regards to where it sits

Which is a long encounter

vernal valve

i'm genuinely immensely curious as to what the dev process looked like for Yama tbh

tacit pendant
#

Doubling down on "i did it in leagues" im an expert is insane

plush gull
unreal plover
#

i genuinely dont think this was playtested

#

by more than 1 person

#

if being generous

obsidian venture
#

Doing anything in leagues doesn’t mean shit so idk why this is even a discussion

unreal plover
#

and that person only made sure its beatable in theory

obsidian venture

Congratulations on Mickey Mouse game mode

Clown emoji warranted

obsidian venture
unreal plover

yeah ik

obsidian venture
#

Doomed

tender harness
unreal plover

is there even any other jmod thats on a similar skill level

#

because i dont think the play testers got to test contracts either

obsidian venture
#

Lykos?

#

He’s in the same vein

minor whale
#

I wouldn't be surprised if bloodied blows is legitimately a bugged contract
Every single streamer getting hella frustrated trying it

plush gull
#

i thought it was fun

obsidian venture
#

At least when I chatted with them they had similar interest in speeds

unreal plover
#

i thought acquisition contracts were bugged on release

obsidian venture
#

In regards to the inferno

slender vapor
#

Bloody blows job is gatekeeping streamers

obsidian venture
slender vapor
#

But yeah, it's looking bugged

unreal plover
#

but they literally forgot to put stuff in the contracts description

#

amazing qa

upbeat moss
tender harness
#

bloody blows? severance doers in shambles

obsidian venture
unreal plover
#

yes thats what im saying

tender harness
slender vapor
vernal valve
obsidian venture
#

O

upbeat moss
#

twice

unreal plover
#

i mean that contract does genuinely seem bugged

plush gull
#

he should just keep 1 hp DHing instead of crying about mage :/

minor whale
#

Orbs in p3 not being guaranteed to hit, nor max on, with any weapon
While spawning every 2 attacks
And they heal Yama for 400hp
Can't guarantee you kill even a single orb

#

Ren holy fuck

#

Do you ever have anything to add that's not useless

unreal plover
#

if we get confirmation that it is bugged then we can safely assume contracts actually werent playtested

tacit pendant
#

The crush one being "scythe but in a different shirt" is funny

obsidian venture
#

Idt it’s even worth sending till next week ngl

minor whale
#

Agreed

modest estuary
#

has anyone completed bloodied contract yet

minor whale
#

Nope

modest estuary
#

this rem guy hasnt done it?

minor whale
#

It's either bugged or something is just being overlooked

hasty shard
#

i saw they were red when I did it, does melee not max?

obsidian venture
#

He’s working on 1hp dh tech

plush gull
obsidian venture
#

Or something

#

Lmaooooo

modest estuary
#

🤡

#

gl good sir

unreal plover
#

i really dont see what we could be overlooking

hasty shard
#

that or theres some tech to shield from red flares specifically

lament peak
#

So is this content is for like 1 guy (port khazard, probably) to print oathplate all day while everyone else just sells the contracts

vernal valve
#

there is a non-zero possibility that it's bugged and doesn't get fixed until monday and that would be the funniest shit in the world

slender vapor
#

Ren has 0 yama kc btw

minor whale
#

Nope, nothing actually seems to max hit but everyone I've watched has tried like everything they can think of

obsidian venture
hasty shard
#

clears burn innit

unreal plover
#

ive gotten to p3 sensory a couple times, and almost got to p3 divine severance once

hasty shard
#

wait fk no

unreal plover
#

but then ge limit

#

and i just cba anymore

winter hearth
vernal valve
obsidian venture
unreal plover
#

can we get clarification if bloodied blows is bugged too?

plush gull
#

why dont they just tick eat the void flares and outdps them?

upbeat moss
#

kinda hoping for a "no" response

plush gull
#

thats what i was trying to do

minor whale
#

You can't

hasty shard
#

cause you cant lol

minor whale
#

They heal him 400 each

hasty shard
#

full heals yama

modest estuary
#

if u hit the tickeat without dying ud see boss full heal

plush gull
#

bruh even with their gear and the max hit mechanic they cant outdps the heal?

obsidian venture
#

Is bloodied the medic one

unreal plover
minor whale
#

Bloodied is low HP one

unreal plover
#

divine severance is the medic one

plush gull
#

5 DH hits is more than 400

obsidian venture
#

Ok well for the medic one, took noob 4 min to get the hp to 88%

minor whale
#

But he still chips

plush gull
#

bruh someone give me 1000 bloodied blows contracts ill do it myself

unreal plover
#

and only reason divine severance is hard is because theres some weird special attack cycle with the void flares

obsidian venture
#

It’s 2 hits into 2 min of killing flares

analog crow
obsidian venture
#

Great concept

winter hearth
hasty shard

winter hearth

Keen to keep watching over the weekend though and see if people really get cooking, just been a long/tough week!

obsidian venture
#

Noon almost got another one

analog crow
#

Enjoy your weekend king! You deserve it!

obsidian venture
#

Autocorrect smh

hasty shard
#

i assuuume you dont actually need to kill every orb assuming you proc sigils properly but if it continues into p3 lol

modest estuary
#

ye will be interesting to see what people cook up

unreal plover
#

but theres some weird attack pattern

#

that might be random

hasty shard
unreal plover
#

where sometimes you just run out of glyphs

hasty shard
#

the special cycle is so much nicer kekw

unreal plover
#

or yama does the void flare special twice with little downtime

hasty shard
#

yeah you get fucked on fire sigil start iirc if orbs spawn on second special

winter hearth
lament peak
#

Contracts could have been difficult without disabling demonbane weapons feelsroqman

analog crow
#

Designing for the 0.1% top of the playerbase can't be easy.

hasty shard
#

it does sound like disabling demonbane buffs has made some of these way harder than intended, like for severance

small anvil
#

felt like jagex was locked into releasing on x date by the advertising and wasnt able to course correct ahead of time b/c of it

#

and then panic made changes on contract drop rates

unreal plover
#

severance does have demonbane weps enabled

hasty shard
#

frog oh

#

i swore it was just off for all of them now lol

analog crow
#

FWIW I think it's nice to see the big dogs struggling for once and not steamrolling the content on day 1

plush gull
#

so are contracts gonna get nerfed because streamers are crying because they cant just do fun self imposed harder mode because they cant get enough contracts...?

hasty shard
#

uhh do the orbs got more hp cause you should be able to sang -> purging spec orbs to save time otherwise p1/2

winter hearth
unreal plover
#

the bosses are def overtuned in stats a bit right now

#

probably everyone will agree

hasty shard
#

personal two cents, in comparison to awakened bosses, I can actually eat up at something like vard. I don't feel like i can with contracts

plush gull
#

making the fights easier would be so backwards compared to just letting people attempt the fights as much as necessary

obsidian venture
#

And hp

small anvil
#

hp and defense is just such a bad lever for increasing "difficulty"

#

it makes fights longer, not more difficult

obsidian venture
#

Vard you’re getting cleaved with the axe, but if you skip axe you can double or triple eat

hasty shard
#

getting slapped a 78 to shadow walls is bleh

minor whale
#

I'm all for harder mechanics
But the prevalence of doubling or tripling their hp, defense, and healing is just so not fun anymore

small anvil
#

it raises the bar for execution

unreal plover
#

like the divine severance one did not need the hp increase at all since youre spending most of your dps dealing with the orbs anyways

plush gull
#

make the fights harder, double HP, make them required for GM

and make them doable as much as you need to

vernal valve
obsidian venture
#

It’s dull and boring

small anvil
#

but it isnt a FUN type of difficulty

hasty shard
analog crow
#

Gnome said he'd prefer a death by a thousand cuts rather than getting one shot

hasty shard
#

granted i also just kinda dont like them in the normal fight kekw they come in during meteor and you just cant really move away

vernal valve
#

gnome just reading chat bc he's getting bored mid fight 😭

hasty shard
#

ok granted gnome was trying to do 1hp attempts 😭

obsidian venture
#

Can’t believe I had to tune into gnome

lament peak
#

Some of the contracts should be easier imo. Like keep the difficulty for cosmetics but contracts could have been like a clue scroll for the average player. A slightly more challenging fight with better rewards that drops infrequently
Not gated to the .1%

vernal valve
hasty shard
vernal valve
#

that was mad funny for different reasons

plush gull
#

make contract fights harder.

hasty shard
#

honestly i felt the drag too but then i realised i forgot to click heart 😭

minor whale
#

Yeah one shots that are uncommon and happen with ways to avoid by good play are fine
But when the whole fight is just oops you messed up instead of continuing and learning while finding somewhere to eat up and still maintain the fight, you're just dead, it's genuinely not even enjoyable to watch lmao

plush gull
#

this is making me want to do contracts, buy limit wore off and i got merched on 2, lets goo

minor whale
#

I'm not even having a fun time watching streamers trying to do it they all seem so bored lmao

analog crow
#

gnome beat forfeit breah

obsidian venture
#

It’s just bad design

upbeat moss

2/5 now

obsidian venture
#

So did noob

#

They’re both pacing

upbeat moss
#

ye

hasty shard
unreal plover
#

glyph and forfeit breath seem to be the 2 easiets ones

#

but imo divine severance is also easy

hasty shard
#

off pray vard axe, fail duke eye/wisp pillars, levi chomp

unreal plover
#

just didnt get enough time to figure out the special cycles

#

u cant really compare duke

upbeat moss
#

from my perspective (giant fucking noob, just enjoying watching for now)
it does suck to see these guys look/feel so bummed rn

hasty shard
#

im pretty sure missing the shadow wall skip during enrage will just hit you for 150 though lmao

unreal plover
#

its a one mechanic at a time almost

#

also vard imo is just in a different category completely

#

bc that entire boss is so well designed

hasty shard
#

/s

upbeat moss
#

its different

#

i have 0kc but i think they should make it harder

unreal plover
#

yeah when awakened bosses came out the consensus was way different than what it is now

#

and people were stuck at levi and vard for a long time too

restive siren
unreal plover
#

its not just complaining because hard

hasty shard
#

woke vard kiiinda feels back cause of the constant tick loss imo

modest estuary
#

idk when awakeneds came out i ran in and died a bunch and just felt like i was shit and shoulda played better these feel like i didnt press defensive spell for 13th time in a row so i get 1shot

hasty shard
#

8t cycle for 5t bis is ehh

#

like the fights still awesome but still

obsidian venture
hasty shard
#

id genuinely just rather do awakened whisperer over the normal version just so i dont go braindead

obsidian venture
#

Rather fight awakened vard but orbs exist

#

🤭

shadow fiber
#

I do think a multi day race is certaining appealing from a viewers perspective, but it'll be interesting to see how the streamers feel about it in retrospect

plush gull
#

bruh why dont they make me regen spec on dying

obsidian venture
#

This is fine yeah. Kinda takes it back to infernos release

plush gull
#

annoying boss

obsidian venture
#

However the fights aren’t scaled properly

#

Stuff like the medic contract is just aids for no reason

slender vapor
#

The hp seems scaled to duo

#

Even in the solo contracts

chrome lantern
#

Unless you used 0 other supplies regening spec on death wouldn’t even help you

obsidian venture
#

Like there is a stark difference between this and awakeneds

#

Where the awakened were quite literally skill issue

#

This is orbs blast you to kingdom come for 0 issue

#

Ah so you chose to dps the boss over killing orbs for the 100th time

#

Bad choice!

plush gull
#

im too bad for this fight with 0 yama kc

#

i wanna do vard instead

#

where bonfire update

hasty shard
#

wheres the contract with all of these mechanics in one fight btw

#

unbound yama where

slender vapor
#

Ultra instinct yama

obsidian venture
#

I also did awakeneds when orbs were up and didn’t send the reg boss to practice (kinda dumb on my part), yet you could learn and pick up things while you sent attempts

rain fulcrum

It's so that we can see gnome monkey crash out on stream

obsidian venture

i feel like its rly close to good the contracts r just maybe a bit overtuned in terms of how long they take to kill

like someone who wants to do demons in chasm? which is apparently no one?

How is the oath shard contract

plush gull

i dont need to watch gnomonkey crash out i already watched him do echo sol and speedrun budget inferno like a day before me when i was doing it

watching kirby do the severance contract
ICANT the fuck is that shit

small anvil

all the acquisition contracts are the same i believe?

vernal valve

yeah except the pet one

tender harness
#

oh no he switched to sensory

hasty shard
#

monka

upbeat moss
#

thats the chasing one, right?

tender harness
#

IIRC yes

#

severance is the HF no prayers one with one shot orbs

hasty shard
#

i assume he moves during enrage?

#

otherwise wattesigma free

tender harness
#

hes on enrage rn and yes he does

hasty shard
#

lol

#

gwimblyfly when

shadow wave
#

Seems like Severance and Blows are the gatekeepers at the moment

tender harness
#

but severance and bloody blows seem legit wtf

shadow wave
#

Do we know if anyone has a confirmed completion on either of them? I've only seen completions on the other three mentioned

hasty shard
#

bloodied blows is just the enrage thats wtf im guessing

upbeat moss
#

goblin avoided the quesion about bloodied blows being bugged.... im shaking and quaking

tender harness
#

would laugh if they just left this as duo tuning

#

and said hf as solo

slender vapor
#

I'd laugh if it was really holy water

tender harness
#

holy water tech

upbeat moss
#

that would make everything worthwhile

tacit pendant
#

Fights were balanced around delve reward dps ofc

vernal valve
slender vapor
#

You mean the crush demonbane with 70 defense? No, no way this boss with a crush weak contract was balanced around that!

upbeat moss
#

bl blows actually impossible without delve reward for some reason lol

tacit pendant
#

Im curious on the clear % of these acquisiton contracts

shadow wave
#

I haven't seen blows P3 much, what's the thing that seems impossible? Is it the orb HP?

upbeat moss
#

orbs not being 1 shot, and healing yama for 400

chrome lantern
#

I did think about that, maybe the specific Yama crush weak contract is the “crush demonbane niche” Jagex was talking about for Diabolical aegis xd

upbeat moss
#

spawning constantly

shadow wave
#

Yikes

#

That seems like either a bug or a mechanic that can only be done one way

upbeat moss
#

yeah, nobody knows rn

#

pls be holy water, i never ask for anything but this is it

restive siren
#

holy sensory p3 looks insane

chrome lantern

I think it would be cool if one of the contracts had the glyphs still up in p3 xd

bruh i completely forgot how to do normal yama after not sending attempts for a few days

tacit pendant
#

I bought an inquiz set, gonna camp pnm waiting for delve. My bet is crush good there

hasty shard
#

can they not design content with the intention to add things later to make it useful

#

like this is jagex we're talking about 😭

rain fulcrum
#

well, yama came out before delve

gnome doing sensory now?

i think itll be used at delve too tho

surely jagex doesnt forget about tbow for the 5th time

tacit pendant
#

But thats less uses than seercull

hasty shard
#

crush scythe bis pepe_pray

#

you can use seercull at yama smh

tacit pendant
#

100gp chad Seercull vs the 100m virgin ralos

i think the main thing gating ralos rn is that the current tbow contents are wave based

Delve crush + tbow pls and thank you

let us shoot rubys from tbow

the weekend tbh

im more interested in bloodied blows p3

rain fulcrum

whats that one do

chrome lantern

I mean in theory if you can figure out when he pauses at what points in cycle for how long it should be feasible to make a cycle

upbeat moss

spawns more voidflares and they arent 1 shot

or something

why are people still obsessed with flying after kirby guide

not impossible, just naturally max

I did hear that issue, makes sense

upbeat moss

#

we eat those

plush gull
#

it looks like fang on bloodied blows with def reduc should be like 12 dps so not much better than like max melee xp

hasty shard
#

12 dps tf

#

that sounds nuts

minor whale
plush gull
#

scythe on colo mobs is over 10

#

yama has slightly higher xp mult

upbeat moss
#

rip holy water

plush gull

so its a tiny bit more xp/h than just scything colo mobs normally

#

probably not worth it
