Just power wise elemental weakness and harm can be buffed without issue

tacit pendant
#

theres also very weird slayer uses, but id have to go look

rain fulcrum
#

I wish there was group phosanis tbh

chrome lantern
#

I guess what I'm really saying is that I'd be kinda pissed if they made harm useful without making it actually reasonable to get, selfishly

viscid cipher
#

Is shadow still better in metal dragon or harm staff?

meager flame
#

i mean the rates themselves are a little bit nuts before you even know the kill time

tacit pendant
#

hespori, vespula, pvp

meager flame
#

thats how you know its scary

vestal ruin
hard axle
#

People still scythed at ToB when it was 1k a swing erm

meager flame
#

especially before their last change

tacit pendant
#

it needs buffed, dont misunderstand me, what it has aint enough

gaunt kestrel
#

same goes for nex

obsidian venture
chrome lantern
obsidian venture
#

How much misinformation can a guy give in 1 night

viscid cipher
#

Nightmare boss is harder than nex isn’t?

meager flame
#

just about everything is harder than team nex

chrome lantern
#

Especially when we look at the stat rebalance to make inq mace relevant without addressing the drop table in a meaningful way

gaunt kestrel
#

i could see 1/75-1/90 being like a "reasonable" drop rate

chrome lantern
#

But the boss is fun :( I would unironically do some of it even at these rates if I had a heart

gaunt kestrel
#

down from 1/113

meager flame
#

the only time nex is "hard" is when you go in with a very small (2 or less) group of players and you have to survive the boss until it dies

chrome lantern
#

That said, I would "do a bit of it" in the same way I do corp here and there

gaunt kestrel
#

that would be like 10-12 hours on rate on a max/main

#

(less than, even)

meager flame
#

otherwise its just classic content basically like pretty much any other boss you mostly check out on and watch exp drops

#

mostly old bosses

obsidian venture
#

I'm all for reducing rates for nightmare/nex further

#

and oath

#

also delete nightmare and replace the base version with pnm

#

thank you

vestal ruin
gaunt kestrel
#

yea inq/torva becoming less rare and oath becoming more rare to clamp on the disparity would be my ideal

meager flame
#

i feel like they could probably remove one of the earlier nightmare phases if they wanted to make it a little more reasonable

#

they're kinda hitting you with some filler

obsidian venture
#

Remove 1 phase from nm, 1 phase from pnm

gaunt kestrel
viscid cipher
#

Imo nm boss is difficult

tacit pendant
#

even tho i know its wrong, i kinda like the flavour inq has in being the rare weird item

obsidian venture
#

increase rates by about 35%

gaunt kestrel
#

then you can adjust the hours to complete on the kph

true talon
vestal ruin
#

I like its rare, I love the set, I wish it was common

chrome lantern
tacit pendant
#

orbs could be way more common and meta at bosses, we have no mage specs

obsidian venture
#

If it's more dps yes

chrome lantern
#

Yeah mage specs have been a weird thing forever

meager flame
#

but yeah in general if they wanted to fix pnm to be something for me to really want to go do i'd love that

vestal ruin
chrome lantern
#

Even right now we have purging staff spec that is just Yama orbs, a megarare wildy weapon, and two nightmare orbs that are megarare

meager flame
#

seems like a really cheap update too in terms of dev resources

#

they should probably look around and do more stuff like that

chrome lantern
#

And that's it for mage specs

tacit pendant
#

owl, blocking him helps

obsidian venture
chrome lantern
#

Even eye spec is just another take on mage defense drain from wildy scepter

gaunt kestrel
true talon
#

No point in argueing with the brickwalls of single digit, ill ask goblin on his say tomorrow during update. he often engages and gives reasoning, bringing up forseen problems with something is how we bring about change.

viscid cipher
#

Maybe allow 3nm orb combin together

#

To make it useful

gaunt kestrel
#

as it is we have easy to access stuff needlessly encroaching on the space of other items that already existed in the gear proc bracket

obsidian venture
#

if you brought it up to him

vestal ruin
gaunt kestrel
#

burning claws to 40spec!

vestal ruin
gaunt kestrel
#

remove 1str from blood moon chest and legs!

obsidian venture
chrome lantern
#

Make it 39 spec

vestal ruin
#

atm burning claws are better than dclaws in some places yeah?

obsidian venture
#

yeah

gaunt kestrel
#

yea

obsidian venture
#

oath and dclaws is nice tho

chrome lantern
#

I wish I got a burning claw drop

tacit pendant
#

they actually tried and failed to make the orbs relevant at yama contacts lol

vestal ruin
#

im just over 200 yama kc no drops yet, hoping for somethin soon

gaunt kestrel
#

bclaws also roll enemy style defence based off your selected attack style

obsidian venture
vestal ruin
#

Yepp 🙂 63 deaths

gaunt kestrel
#

whereas most other weapons would roll off of a "type" style

obsidian venture
#

I know you were sending a while ago

#

Gaming

gaunt kestrel
#

gz quiver

vestal ruin
#

lemme get the pic lol

#

its..... somethin

#

peep doom stacks 👀

gaunt kestrel
#

too easy for owl

chrome lantern
#

So many prayers and healths left

vestal ruin
#

so so many

tacit pendant
#

i listened to gnomes sw pillar advice and it cost me like 40 deaths, hes my enemy now

obsidian venture
#

I see 5 redemptions left

vestal ruin
#

I wanna go back but I want an upgrade

obsidian venture
#

🔥

vestal ruin
#

I was 14/15 doom stacks LOL

gaunt kestrel
#

sw pillar catdespair

obsidian venture
#

Please don't listen to gnome

tacit pendant
#

i learned

#

trust

obsidian venture
#

I did my time for 2 years arguing for folks to do the opposite of what he said on wdr

tacit pendant
#

it was sra camping sw, no inferno xp, machocist run

chrome lantern
#

Maybe someday I'll bother getting good at colo and actually melee waves or use arceuus spellbook

gaunt kestrel
#

i used to like gnome but for the past like year+ he's been sipping the crazy juice

obsidian venture
#

Now i'm retired... my learners will spread the gospel

chrome lantern
#

All these kills were tbow waves with a 5 way barrage switch for fremmy and heals

tacit pendant
#

he is a great teacher, with wild beliefs

obsidian venture
#

He's a good pvmer

#

Just doesn't know how to relay good info

tacit pendant
#

he relays bad info very well

obsidian venture
#

Which is why he's kinda looked down upon within some endgame pvming groups

#

But no one questions his capability

gaunt kestrel
#

its also the ego

vestal ruin
#

I didnt like his inferno guide

#

'just hit the boss'

obsidian venture
#

If I had more time or interest to play I could possibly match him

vestal ruin
#

doesnt help much haha

obsidian venture
#

also for colo

#

Advice is wdr is vetted

vestal ruin
#

I just sent em both till completion :} Y O L O

chrome lantern
#

WDR inferno gifs are nice for sure

obsidian venture
#

But also gears towards eff raiding EVEN if casually sending

gaunt kestrel
#

homie just refuses to accept criticism

obsidian venture
#

The actual lfr is questionable

gaunt kestrel
#

the wdr guides are goated

obsidian venture
#

Trial modding there...

#

Wdr mods vs oscord mods when

gaunt kestrel
#

the burn into the extreme burn

obsidian venture
#

Actually though

#

Yama didn't un burn me

gaunt kestrel
#

understandably

vestal ruin
obsidian venture
#

But I have been logging in to send 2 trips of a random boss till I logout

#

Which is more than the last 4 months

obsidian venture
#

and pb ig

vestal ruin
#

I wish I had better gear on my iron to really compete well if that ever happened 🥲

#

Im so close to so many upgrade atm

gaunt kestrel
obsidian venture
#

Can handicap ourselves to match

gaunt kestrel
#

definitely don't have the motivation to grind though

obsidian venture
#

My current boss is vard/moxi

#

and colo

vestal ruin
#

Araxxor / yama for me

#

need to upgrade the obby pants and fighter torso 💀

obsidian venture
#

obby pants...

#

kinda tech

vestal ruin
#

yep....... entirely ignored bandos

obsidian venture
#

what's the next thing? bm tassets?

vestal ruin
#

inferno/quiver and obby pants hahaha

#

I dont like moons so im ignoring them tbh

obsidian venture
#

well tbf

#

yama if you got tds weapons

vestal ruin
#

I have purging staff

tacit pendant
#

yeah i def havent killed the boss 500 times also guys

obsidian venture
#

skips all melee basically

vestal ruin
#

yeppp

#

just gotta stick with yama, 200~ kc so far got upgraded death charge

obsidian venture
#

until you wanna min max dps and get a t helm

vestal ruin
#

which is awesome at araxxor

obsidian venture
#

I got dc and left

#

maybe tmrw I log in for contracts

vestal ruin
#

glgl

obsidian venture
#

idk if i'm excited for it ngl

#

Kinda dull compared to blorva imo

tacit pendant
#

mage camp on mobile was like 300 kc, its cozy watch show content

vestal ruin
#

I hope they are atleast somewhat doable for casual players

#

Ik they are supposed to be awakened level

obsidian venture
#

I cannot do the boss if my partner cannot donofly 😭

vestal ruin
#

but I want some easier ones

obsidian venture
#

It becomes too dull

obsidian venture
tacit pendant
#

awakened vard is like peak sweaty shit

vestal ruin
#

🥲

plush gull
# vestal ruin I didnt like his inferno guide

this is gnomonkeys actual inferno guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJjIEASh6F0&t=22428s

all the ones with "just hit stuff before it kills you, you wont die yeah that step under I just did to avoid dying? i wont tell you how, to do that, you wont get hit as high as i did, just chance yourself, dont ever try to learn anything" are rage bait

vestal ruin
#

lol

obsidian venture
#

Acquisition contracts were harder than some raidiant ones

true talon
vestal ruin
#

thx ren :

obsidian venture
vestal ruin

D:

obsidian venture

They either dono or I log

true talon
obsidian venture
#

Waste of my time xd

vestal ruin
#

Dont.

obsidian venture
#

Won't dw

vestal ruin
obsidian venture
#

but if you're burnt, wasting more time per kill isn't it

tacit pendant
#

usually the teamate tells you before hand...

obsidian venture
#

Always do

#

In some rare cases I will comply

true talon
obsidian venture
#

non issue

#

next

vestal ruin
obsidian venture

Why's this getting faster

hard axle
vestal ruin
#

chmeese ratJAM

obsidian venture
#

my learners expedite the process

hard axle
#

It’s like how people still do 25 minute trio cox

tacit pendant
#

its more popular than melee camp in ffa worlds

obsidian venture
#

Lots of folks in my cc mage camp and that's fine

vestal ruin
#

I only have purging staff so im sadly forced to mage camp 🥲

obsidian venture
#

But if I wanna do it my own way, folks can respect that or not

hard axle
obsidian venture
obsidian venture

I don't pot content with like 95% of cc

hard axle

like solo cm idm ragging cause its only my own time

obsidian venture
#

Same

#

Waiting for delve ig

gaunt kestrel
#

hopefully delve is good

#

a little concerned for lower stages of delve

obsidian venture
#

big concern

gaunt kestrel
hard axle
#

60m dex scrolls

#

10m arcanes

#

I joined this game at the best time cuz every raid I did was at its peak SCsobbing2

#

Shame they didn’t protect the prices as much as they could have

gaunt kestrel
#

game is fun in a different way nowadays

#

not saying im great now ofc

#

im still poop

hard axle
#

Same

#

Bottom of the HLC barrel as I refer to myself

small anvil
#

prayers were destined to be in the bin

#

single use

#

basically the rate of use has to match new accounts willing to buy it at a price, then end up not progressing to the other gear from the raid

gaunt kestrel
narrow folio
#

Doesn't that go for other gear too? Except gear doesn't get consumed?

hard axle
#

remember when prayers were 4x rarer

#

and then people malded

#

and they were 1 shared scroll

meager flame
#

ge tax > buy prayer scrolls

#

they can fix it whenever

narrow folio
#

Every account only "needs" one gear item

#

It's just that the prayers are the most common

slender vapor
#

Prayers can't be reused and sold

rain fulcrum
#

That actually helps

meager flame
#

tbh idk why jagex doesn't just take on some little ge projects

#

like you could fix the dex and arcane prices tomorrow

rain fulcrum
#

How

meager flame
#

buy out the ge with the trillions of gp in tax they never spend

narrow folio
#

Prayers not being reused helps the price

rain fulcrum
#

Do they actually not spend it

meager flame
#

they've said before they dont spend almost any of it

rain fulcrum
#

I assumed it's going towards keeping shadow up

meager flame
#

they take out way more gp than they put back in with the tax

#

and tbh

#

they could also just straight up triple the tax

rain fulcrum
#

The way raids are modeled

meager flame
#

they pretty much created the solution to their problems but are very hesitant to use it

rain fulcrum
#

It's actually crazy it took this long for the non mega to become worthless

meager flame
#

which is probably good but like

#

they should actually use it

rain fulcrum
#

Is dex being low a problem

meager flame
#

yeah

rain fulcrum
#

If they want dex to be high then they shouldn't have created mini-dex either

meager flame
#

theres a progression with royal titans and everything that means nothing to mains

slender vapor
#

Fang being 9m is actually such a joke

meager flame
#

because you can just go straight to dex

slender vapor
rain fulcrum
#

But royal titans itself devalues dex

#

If anything you'd need to make dex more rare

#

Rather than just upping it's price

meager flame
#

thats effectively what is happening with the ge deleting them

#

people's drop would be disappearing into thin air

rain fulcrum
#

There's something that feels weird about just altering the supply too much directly with ge

#

Idk

meager flame
#

its the only real way to solve their problems without doing things that actually hurt players

#

like you could make the dex more rare than the tbow and that would also fix it

#

but everyone would hate it too

slender vapor
#

Dumping over farmed items into the void is the least invasive way to fix the over supply

#

2-3% GE tax would be more than enough to remove oversupply on everything

meager flame
#

but yeah this is why the economist they hired told them to do this with a tax

#

its really clever and makes really good use of the fact that none of it is actually real

#

its basically cheating

rain fulcrum
#

I think the progression for royal titans will never mean anything to mains

#

Jagex also doesn't really seem to care about raid unique prices for some reason

#

All 3 are in a terrible state where the mega rare is like 80% of the profit

true talon
#

I leave arcanes on the floor at olm

#

sacrfice to the blood god

meager flame
#

im just surprised they dont go for it more aggressively in general

#

jagex could send tons of content back to how it felt when it was a month old

slender vapor
#

Alternative, give deaths coffer a gold multiplier for certain items
Fang 9m GE, 15M deaths coffer

meager flame
#

well thats the thing

slender vapor
#

You insentivize people to just destroy gear

true talon
meager flame
#

so jagex needs gold sinks more than item sinks in a lot of ways

#

so to do both they kind of need to have more of a ge tax but

true talon
#

The only way to fix raid unique prices is have them be fodder to upgrade a new item

rain fulcrum
#

Well they could do something about tobs uniques

meager flame
#

it would be a fair trade off because people would actually be able to sell their loot for what its supposed to be worth

#

and not just get pitiful raids uniques and shit

rain fulcrum
#

Cox and ToA are harder because the items are good just oversupplied

#

Tob has a complete different issue

true talon
rain fulcrum
#

So poll buffing them

meager flame
#

but yeah jagex could basically create real deflation

#

and make anything they wanted scarce at the same time

#

and people would be more properly rewarded for their efforts

rain fulcrum
#

Also most of what failed the poll was potions and z vambs no?

ember token
#

yeah

rain fulcrum
#

That's has little to do with rapier and justi being shit

true talon
#

Oathplate woulda made more sense to come from TOB

hard axle
#

Oathplate would've been the new Torva, yes.

#

and should've

#

Justi was added because they thought tank armor good, but reality is when a shit ton of attacks do not get mitigated by justi/ely, it's useless, especially when you lose damage.

solar gale
#

I mean as soon as you start powercreeping the game and adding different items and sidegrades to existing items you would just be asking to reorganize where everything comes from constantly

rain fulcrum
#

I mean it should have been obvious that having new stab wep from ToA that is way more common and better than the one from tob was stupid

#

Rapier now needs smth to make it unique

solar gale
#

fang should have been swapped with ward for rarity

#

there being 3 fangs for every shadow > there being 8 fangs for every shadow

rain fulcrum
#

I think their logic was ward needed to be rarer to ensure that it would keep price alongside arcane sigil

#

(that failed anyway lolololol)

solar gale
#

so how did that one go

rain fulcrum
#

I remember their blog saying explicitly they think the drop rate will allow it to keep price

#

Despite the rarity of arcane

#

So they were just completely off

solar gale
#

its missing the patch note but I think they also changed ward itself ot have a high alch of 3m so it would hold the slightest bit of value

rain fulcrum
#

Or also the playerbase shot themselves in the foot by making jagex change the droprates

meager flame
#

I just think tank armor is one of those seemingly easy good ideas that's actually a horrible idea

rain fulcrum
#

I really wish jagex had more backbone on droprates

meager flame
#

They probably realized it and that's why it has no content

rain fulcrum
#

It has moons!!!

solar gale
#

the problem is that there is just never content where you really want / need a tank

#

because there are no real defined rolls in the game

meager flame
#

If you just stop and consider what the reality of the game would be if you wanted to tank

#

You'll know why

rain fulcrum
#

You could probably make a raid where it's meta for one person to being justi

#

If you have hella chip and allow controlling aggro

meager flame
#

Everything people hate would have to get turned up to 11

#

To make us want tank

solar gale
#

I think the next raid is going to be a 3-5 person raid (with 1-2 being technically possible) and then when going in you each get roles that get buffs to that specfic style and change what mechanics you interact with

rain fulcrum
#

I really hope it's not forced roles

solar gale
#

like a melee roll gets +18 to their melee strength but their head chest and legs have no strength bonus (aka torva strength on every armor)

rain fulcrum
#

Or jagex still hasn't learned that letting players figure out the roles is the way to go

#

Yeah that would be bad imo

solar gale
#

y

rain fulcrum
#

Tob has proven u don't need that

meager flame
#

People just like the idea of classes and ignore how not having them is one of the most special things about osrs

solar gale
#

so you want a way where players make the rolls but also make certain armor and stuff viable without expecting people to just use whatever max stuff they use everyhwere else

rain fulcrum
#

All you need to do is have one of the bosses heal a significant amount based on how much damage it's doing

#

Then it becomes meta for 1 person to bring justi ely

#

Everyone else dps

#

You don't have to have some class system where someone indicates I am the tank

#

Again looking at tob

#

Where not only are there roles but the gear is way more diverse than anywhere else

meager flame
#

yeah but then you have a problem

solar gale
#

so force roles through punishing mechanics instead of offering buffs while setting specific expectations for that player

meager flame
#

nobody wants to be the tank doing no damage and eating

#

and they get no loot potential because of how jagex typically does loot

rain fulcrum
#

Just do tob style loot

solar gale
#

tob style loot still has mvp points in the background bro

rain fulcrum
#

Idk IDC about loot points b/c split

meager flame
#

honestly they should do tob without mvp existing

rain fulcrum
#

Yes but it's way way wayyy less influential

#

Than cox or toa points

solar gale
#

you are now designing it for people specfically with friends

rain fulcrum
#

And it would be 1 room in the raid

solar gale
#

mass worlds are now shrash

#

because no one would want to be tank

rain fulcrum
#

Oh no! What will we do

meager flame
#

i mean i actually think at that point it would be kinda good

rain fulcrum
#

Grow up and volunteer to be a tank if you can't find a tank

meager flame
#

because you could have the newest or dumbest player play tank

#

and they wouldn't be punished

rain fulcrum
#

Similar to how host has to freeze

#

And again this would be for 1 room in the raid and likely not be mandatory anyway

solar gale
#

again its a much more boring idea than give style specfic buffs for each role

rain fulcrum
#

Since it's not like you can gate the raid on having justi

#

You would just make it so 1 person bringing justi swaps

#

No

#

What you are saying is just stupid role forcing

#

Which is like the ToA of roles

#

They need to just cook bosses and let the players figure out what to take

solar gale
#

id rather tick eat a pile of purple sweets so the boss doesn't heal as much than bring justi

rain fulcrum
#

Then sure do that?

#

I don't see the problem

solar gale
#

other than its boring

#

buffs good

rain fulcrum
#

Buffs are boring

solar gale
#

punish if don't use x bad

rain fulcrum
#

Oh great the raid demands I must specify my class

#

And I have to perform to the roles that jagex intended

solar gale
#

you keep bringing out the word specify

rain fulcrum
#

Instead of being a diverse set of gear across 3-5 players for what suits the bosses

solar gale
#

oh so specifiying?

#

performing roles that jagex intended

#

were gonna fix specfic roles by making specifc roles?

#

interesting

rain fulcrum
#

No that's exactly what you are proposing

#

And I'm saying is bad

solar gale
#

why not all 3 tribrid or 2-3brid and then give them buffs for each role

#

that sounds like way more fun

rain fulcrum
#

???

#

Pce

#

U don't get it

solar gale
#

your think is just my thing but no buffs

#

basically the same thing

#

but mine has a hat

true talon
#

Know whats funny, yama has roles but the guy doing mage mechanics/role is doing far less dps so its better to just melee him and bring 3 way mage switc for flares.

#

You guys always want role based content

frail bough
#

Could probably be resolved if the non-targeted partner had to do the glyphs, the targeted player could get hit through prayer by melee, and he didnt get extra def when maging

#

and then probably more frequent tank swaps

#

would force targeted player to mage, without dps loss so that he doesn't come in melee range while requiring partner to do the things
probably would require a melee attack update so you cant just step back as well

fossil epoch
#

Since i shouldnt say people are crying, my prediction for todays update is it wont satisfy people, whatever they have done with the contracts.
Doubt its been enough time to fix the issues

#

Hopefully it gets improved a lot

frail bough
#

yeah itll be better but it wont be what people want/prefer

#

probably mostly just fixing a bit of bugs, no actual changes to fights

Fixed a bug where the Dragon and Burning Claws were not guaranteeing their second hitsplat from the Soulflame Horn.

Aka, dragon claws and burning claws still aren’t worth using with horn at all smh.

In order to pass the second accuracy attempt, you have to also miss the first.

Meaning your net accuracy for the second roll is (acc) + ((1-acc) * acc)

If you’re base accuracy is 55%, then your net accuracy for the second roll is 80%, and at that point, the guarantee is far too costly is special attack usage for the little damage increase you get over passing the third attempt at accuracy which is 91% in the same scenario

Can horn just work with first roll as polled so it can actually be used at 4-5 pieces of content instead of 2, ty
