theres also very weird slayer uses, but id have to go look
I wish there was group phosanis tbh
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
Is shadow still better in metal dragon or harm staff?
i mean the rates themselves are a little bit nuts before you even know the kill time
hespori, vespula, pvp
thats how you know its scary
Harder mode phosani when 😛
People still scythed at ToB when it was 1k a swing 
especially before their last change
it needs buffed, dont misunderstand me, what it has aint enough
i think the nm table is pretty unequivocally considered to be bad
same goes for nex
Melee is more rewarding and Jagex even recognized it in their last blog
Yeah I've continued to say that at a minimum, orbs should be 3-5x+ more common and the rest should probably be 2-3x+ more common
How much misinformation can a guy give in 1 night
Nightmare boss is harder than nex isn’t?
just about everything is harder than team nex
Especially when we look at the stat rebalance to make inq mace relevant without addressing the drop table in a meaningful way
as it is rn the nm items are irrelevant so i think the rates are unfortunate but not like worth their time addressing
i could see 1/75-1/90 being like a "reasonable" drop rate
But the boss is fun :( I would unironically do some of it even at these rates if I had a heart
down from 1/113
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
That said, I would "do a bit of it" in the same way I do corp here and there
otherwise its just classic content basically like pretty much any other boss you mostly check out on and watch exp drops
mostly old bosses
I'm all for reducing rates for nightmare/nex further
and oath
also delete nightmare and replace the base version with pnm
thank you
yea inq/torva becoming less rare and oath becoming more rare to clamp on the disparity would be my ideal
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
Remove 1 phase from nm, 1 phase from pnm
yea deleting a phase for pacing would be not bad as well
Imo nm boss is difficult
even tho i know its wrong, i kinda like the flavour inq has in being the rare weird item
increase rates by about 35%
I am in the same boat
then you can adjust the hours to complete on the kph
Thats a dumb argument, would you scythe tob if it was 1k per swing and 25% less dps than the free option?
I like its rare, I love the set, I wish it was common
Reminder that Jagex called orbs "flex items" which effectively means they were fine with leaving them as useless
If it's less dps no
orbs could be way more common and meta at bosses, we have no mage specs
If it's more dps yes
Yeah mage specs have been a weird thing forever
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
Guys, Id appreciate if you stop with the arguing over minor DPS differences and reasons behind this, this argument has gone on for too long. Drop it please
Even right now we have purging staff spec that is just Yama orbs, a megarare wildy weapon, and two nightmare orbs that are megarare
seems like a really cheap update too in terms of dev resources
they should probably look around and do more stuff like that
And that's it for mage specs
owl, blocking him helps
there's a better option...
Even eye spec is just another take on mage defense drain from wildy scepter
yea i think doing a gear prog overhaul would be smth useful for jagex to pursue long term
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.
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
I promise you he will disagree with your points tn
if you brought it up to him
Let it go. please.
burning claws to 40spec!
I could do with a pair of these
remove 1str from blood moon chest and legs!
decent nerf
Make it 39 spec
atm burning claws are better than dclaws in some places yeah?
yeah
yea
oath and dclaws is nice tho
I wish I got a burning claw drop
they actually tried and failed to make the orbs relevant at yama contacts lol
im just over 200 yama kc no drops yet, hoping for somethin soon
bclaws also roll enemy style defence based off your selected attack style
Forgot to ask but you copped quiver ye
Yepp 🙂 63 deaths
whereas most other weapons would roll off of a "type" style
too easy for owl
So many prayers and healths left
so so many
i listened to gnomes sw pillar advice and it cost me like 40 deaths, hes my enemy now
I see 5 redemptions left
I wanna go back but I want an upgrade
🔥
I was 14/15 doom stacks LOL
jeez
sw pillar 
Please don't listen to gnome
I did my time for 2 years arguing for folks to do the opposite of what he said on wdr
it was sra camping sw, no inferno xp, machocist run
Maybe someday I'll bother getting good at colo and actually melee waves or use arceuus spellbook
i used to like gnome but for the past like year+ he's been sipping the crazy juice
Now i'm retired... my learners will spread the gospel
All these kills were tbow waves with a 5 way barrage switch for fremmy and heals
he is a great teacher, with wild beliefs
he relays bad info very well
Which is why he's kinda looked down upon within some endgame pvming groups
But no one questions his capability
its also the ego
If I had more time or interest to play I could possibly match him
doesnt help much haha
best guide is the wdr one
also for colo
Advice is wdr is vetted
I just sent em both till completion :} Y O L O
WDR inferno gifs are nice for sure
But also gears towards eff raiding EVEN if casually sending
homie just refuses to accept criticism
The actual lfr is questionable
the wdr guides are goated
understandably
vs us how 👀
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
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
honestly boss is nb, i click, a little bit of neuron engagement happens and the time passes
Can handicap ourselves to match
definitely don't have the motivation to grind though
yep....... entirely ignored bandos
what's the next thing? bm tassets?
I have purging staff
yeah i def havent killed the boss 500 times also guys
skips all melee basically
until you wanna min max dps and get a t helm
which is awesome at araxxor
glgl
mage camp on mobile was like 300 kc, its cozy watch show content
I hope they are atleast somewhat doable for casual players
Ik they are supposed to be awakened level
I cannot do the boss if my partner cannot donofly 😭
but I want some easier ones
It becomes too dull
It won't be
awakened vard is like peak sweaty shit
🥲
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

Wanna chat in game? Clan ch...
lol
Acquisition contracts were harder than some raidiant ones
Just tell em to mage camp, appearntly its easy
thx ren :
I'm saying I don't want a mage camper
D:
They either dono or I log
oh i see
Waste of my time 
Dont.
Won't dw

but if you're burnt, wasting more time per kill isn't it
usually the teamate tells you before hand...
sounds like a good way to design a boss, the player will need to learn the community created method or no1 will play with them hmmmmmm.
simple
did u just cheese bane or me
Why's this getting faster
learn the community method, good thing raids dont ask this of you also
You have been cheesed
chmeese 
my learners expedite the process
Dude, plenty of people mage camp together because they accept lower dps in exchange for chill
It’s like how people still do 25 minute trio cox
its more popular than melee camp in ffa worlds
Lots of folks in my cc mage camp and that's fine
I only have purging staff so im sadly forced to mage camp 🥲
But if I wanna do it my own way, folks can respect that or not
Donofly but with magic and skip every other hit
and because that's your limit, I'd actually pot with you
I don't pot content with like 95% of cc
I keep cheesing bane 
Then you’ll explode into a million pieces, and that’s fine
loll



the 25min trio preppers was such a good time
back when it was all i knew how to do
now i can't pot reggie cox in any scale above 1
if I had lance Id be soloing cox so much more.... 1040kc so far 3 leathers only 🥲
just gotta keep on keepin on
unless we pot speeds
gunna hop off a bit nice talkin with yall 
My team hasn't potted since Jan
Take care
holy reg speeds
gn! ty 4 chat
was tryna fix a setup
haven't potted cox since then too
prob get a better duo/trio pb
then cms
and yes solos after colo is done...
mb ill repot solo cm arc 
my pb is still from 2022
but ive never grinded pb
it's cooked
always just money
if its pace its pace and i'll sit up in my chair
cept cox ones really
that's tech
I always money or wipe idc
i would really benefit from nylo res though
Only leave if you want rec or few seconds within rec
but sad
waste otherwise
just kinda cba
But for tob, ill send moneys till good time
if you're ever interested
or cox
toa is irrelevant thankfully
only if Jagex makes different boards for them...
honestly i just have low motiv to grind
like solo cm idm ragging cause its only my own time
big concern
I miss those times honestly
60m dex scrolls
10m arcanes
I joined this game at the best time cuz every raid I did was at its peak 
Shame they didn’t protect the prices as much as they could have
yea honestly the game was a lot more ~~fun ~~ special(?) when i was less familiar w how the game worked
game is fun in a different way nowadays
not saying im great now ofc
im still poop
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
yea some people are too cracked
Doesn't that go for other gear too? Except gear doesn't get consumed?
remember when prayers were 4x rarer
and then people malded
and they were 1 shared scroll

Every account only "needs" one gear item
It's just that the prayers are the most common
Prayers can't be reused and sold
That actually helps
tbh idk why jagex doesn't just take on some little ge projects
like you could fix the dex and arcane prices tomorrow
How
buy out the ge with the trillions of gp in tax they never spend
Prayers not being reused helps the price
Do they actually not spend it
they've said before they dont spend almost any of it
I assumed it's going towards keeping shadow up
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
The way raids are modeled
they pretty much created the solution to their problems but are very hesitant to use it
It's actually crazy it took this long for the non mega to become worthless
Is dex being low a problem
yeah
If they want dex to be high then they shouldn't have created mini-dex either
theres a progression with royal titans and everything that means nothing to mains
Fang being 9m is actually such a joke
because you can just go straight to dex

But royal titans itself devalues dex
If anything you'd need to make dex more rare
Rather than just upping it's price
thats effectively what is happening with the ge deleting them
people's drop would be disappearing into thin air
There's something that feels weird about just altering the supply too much directly with ge
Idk
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
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
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
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
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
Alternative, give deaths coffer a gold multiplier for certain items
Fang 9m GE, 15M deaths coffer
well thats the thing
You insentivize people to just destroy gear
Well you cant really adjust the price of raid uniques, when raids are some of the most fun content, you are going to be sending raids and everyone will be raiding. the price is going to go down as more enter the game. thats just how it is.
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
The only way to fix raid unique prices is have them be fodder to upgrade a new item
Well they could do something about tobs uniques
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
Cox and ToA are harder because the items are good just oversupplied
Tob has a complete different issue
Tob rewards unforunately all failed the poll, players voted down everything proposed and what we got is what we got.
So poll buffing them
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
Also most of what failed the poll was potions and z vambs no?
yeah
That's has little to do with rapier and justi being shit
rapier was good at the time, no idea where they was going with justi, they never added content for it to be relevent and defense is often useless anyways.
Oathplate woulda made more sense to come from TOB
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.
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
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
fang should have been swapped with ward for rarity
there being 3 fangs for every shadow > there being 8 fangs for every shadow
I think their logic was ward needed to be rarer to ensure that it would keep price alongside arcane sigil
(that failed anyway lolololol)
so how did that one go
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
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
Or also the playerbase shot themselves in the foot by making jagex change the droprates
I just think tank armor is one of those seemingly easy good ideas that's actually a horrible idea
I really wish jagex had more backbone on droprates
They probably realized it and that's why it has no content
It has moons!!!
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
If you just stop and consider what the reality of the game would be if you wanted to tank
You'll know why
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
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
I really hope it's not forced roles
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)
Or jagex still hasn't learned that letting players figure out the roles is the way to go
Yeah that would be bad imo
y
Tob has proven u don't need that
People just like the idea of classes and ignore how not having them is one of the most special things about osrs
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
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
yeah but then you have a problem
so force roles through punishing mechanics instead of offering buffs while setting specific expectations for that player
nobody wants to be the tank doing no damage and eating
and they get no loot potential because of how jagex typically does loot
Just do tob style loot
tob style loot still has mvp points in the background bro
Idk IDC about loot points b/c split
honestly they should do tob without mvp existing
you are now designing it for people specfically with friends
And it would be 1 room in the raid
Oh no! What will we do
i mean i actually think at that point it would be kinda good
Grow up and volunteer to be a tank if you can't find a tank
because you could have the newest or dumbest player play tank
and they wouldn't be punished
Similar to how host has to freeze
And again this would be for 1 room in the raid and likely not be mandatory anyway
again its a much more boring idea than give style specfic buffs for each role
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
id rather tick eat a pile of purple sweets so the boss doesn't heal as much than bring justi
Buffs are boring
punish if don't use x bad
Oh great the raid demands I must specify my class
And I have to perform to the roles that jagex intended
you keep bringing out the word specify
Instead of being a diverse set of gear across 3-5 players for what suits the bosses
oh so specifiying?
performing roles that jagex intended
were gonna fix specfic roles by making specifc roles?
interesting
why not all 3 tribrid or 2-3brid and then give them buffs for each role
that sounds like way more fun
your think is just my thing but no buffs
basically the same thing
but mine has a hat
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
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
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
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
I'm starting to get worried about bank space again with all these additions
I have potion storage, use the seed vault and am near cap already
They are adding more bankspace with sailing
You can also just buy more bankspace
unless you already capped that out
Where did they mention this? 😮
Jmod said on reddit like yesterday, ill try to find it
alternatively, just clean your bank
I'm doing that now to be fair, took it as a sign
without the bank increase I'd still be worried about it though, new skills,mobs and potentially bosses is a lot - but thanks zend, put my mind at ease
Never! I already have so many times, it still keeps creeping up
Potion Storage cleared out like 100 spaces for me
Set up my bank tags again and it's pretty seamless tbh, though I can understand the additional annoyance for people doing like speed runs or whatever that need very specific dosages
ngl i kinda want more bank space right now lol
yama put quite the number of new items in there
Just buy more bankspace

Man, that was actually the biggest middle finger
What they set those spaces to
yeh 6-7 new items from yama
pretty cheap until like 40 slots
And then it quickly becomes unreasonable
update is usually in like 2 hours right?
"We've heard your complaints, we've changed nothing"
typically yeah
i swear i saw jmods say something about yama ca's this update? did yall see that
correct
When will the news post be out?
Did they mean CA's tomorrow - or have contracts not been dropped?
Regular downtime ?
grand exchange tax going to 2% 👀
@meager flame
Increased sink rates for several high-impact items, including:
Osmumten's Fang Lightbearer Arcane Prayer Scroll Dexterous Prayer Scroll Dragonhunter Lance Dragon Pickaxe
👀
its like they just read the conversation from a few hours ago
3.38 averaged across 4 kills is a speed for an elite task... is that doable without shadow?
clue scrolls when?
Scarred extracts now work as expected with Aether Runes when using Daeyalt Essence.
hmm so how long is it gonna be down for?
👀
Why plain pizzas when Yama doesnt drop plain pizzas
He likes pizzas
"To practise for the toughest Contracts (the Contracts of Harmony and Oathplate Acquisition) and money-making purposes, we've added a new option for you: Bring Yama 100 noted Pineapple Pizzas and he'll let you take him on in this empowered form. The fight's identical to the toughest Contracts of Worm, Catalyst and Shard"
I wonder if the pizzas will be a money maker now
Fixed a bug where the Dragon and Bone Claws were not guaranteeing their second hitsplat from the Soulflame Horn.
should be Burning Claws
Then why not pineapple pizza
It's a challenge for a reason :3
DAMN GE tax going from 1% to 2%
The ge tax goes up to make it so there's fewer items, so the cost of things stay high - so the tax is higher!
Oh also this was put in
Big Grand Exchange bribing jagex again, smh
You can no longer use an Imp Box on Jim to smuggle the Rag out.
I better still have my jim rags in my bank 😠
"Players entering through the Guthix portal at Castle Wars will now be randomly assigned a team at the start of each game. Leaving and rejoining the waiting room won’t change your team - your assignment only resets when a new game begins."
This one so funny
They're no longer sinking occults
LOL
50k ammy incoming
So when can we get the pineapple pizza treatment for awakeners orbs?
👀
Ok Fine 100 awakener's orbs and you can try out the awakened bosses with no rewards
Also is that 100 per attempt or a 1 time payment
how long is the downtime for?
100 per attempt is insane
sudden tax change i wonder how the eco will react to this
Well damn just found this on reddit
There hasn’t been downtime without being explicitly mentioned in like over half a year
oh sick
Yeah, usually just a client restart
Warrior guild pizza is gonna be sold out on the iron shop forever now oh well

Pineapple shops will be barren too
It's funny seeing someone already crying about 1% more tax on the GE
Making 100 pineapple pizza fee when trying to make a system for irons to practice contracts is so extremely out of touch lol
Might as well get a contract at that point
Go buy pizzas bro
I flip in the GE, it affects me.
You raise the cost 1% where possible and put the expense on the customer
Replacing one cringe system with another isn’t a positive thing, and you don’t even get any additional loot for pizza deals
As it is I have paid 600m in taxes this week lol.
Sounds like you could afford to pay it though
I get the complaint it kind of kills item flipping
^^
Can we please get some confirmation as to what's being changed today, and what is tomorrow, as it doesn't mention anything on the news post, but does mention it on the Discord ping?
Me fighting the 1000s of other irons trying to buy pizzas at the warriors guild like its 2005 black friday and I need that flatscreen tv
a lot of times your profit is 1% lmao
click the link on the news post to open the update blog
icl flipping has always been cringe so im not mad
I don't bot, I don't break the rules. I flip to basically ensure my wife and I have Bonds
Yes, but if you read the Discord ping it says that some content is coming today, and other stuff tomorrow
It's a copy and paste fail from last week's update
It's fucked. That's last weeks
Right ok, definitely confusing lmfao
@carmine ferry "We've got Yama bug fixes today, and Contracts are dropping TOMORROW!" is a copy and paste fail, might wanna update that
i see the dmm allstars world is now active
If they really wanted to increase the GE tax. Tax the consumer.
Make it even of 1% on each side
???
How
Pay to get your item?
Horn still absolutely useless with dragon and burning claws 🥶
1% increase on price you pay
Flipping isn't really something that benefits anyone except people acting as the in-betweeners of the items
I don't think Jagex gives a shit really about making sure they're treated fairly
have you never heard of sales tax before
Same way we get taxed IRL
pineapple pizzas already being 863gp ea before update, so its basicly the same price as buying contracts?
Duh
no you dont get guiaranteed drops from pizzas
Yes but im asking how you would implement it
its just practice mode
Go play the game and stop crying about flipping
kind of wish yama was split into solo/duo times with this update....even if it only counted solo times going forward
Except how would that work when buying things with a set amount of gp for someone selling something at a set amount
You put a buy offer in for 1m, but really it takes 1.01m, sells for 1m, the guy gets 9.90m?
Include it in the price IE 1000 ( +10)
IRL it's calculated before you pay it
Tbh if people dont like the GE tax, nothing is stopping them from trading normally with people, just dont trade someone who RWT
In the GE it literally is you put the gp in and then wait for the offer to fill
Yeah but what if the item buys at 900? Do you just get fucked?
Or does it refund
Then it's +9
Don’t like taxes play Ironman ?
Making acquisition contracts harder while hella nerfing kit ones was not on my possibilities 
Telling you you got a refund
"You chose to use the GE"
so nothing is stopping them other than possibly getting banned xd
Way more work
I'd wager 99% of people buy and sell most of their gp from the GE anyway
guys business tax is better than VAT come on
Apologies - was a typo, we've changed it now!
exactly
Flipping is part of the game
A tax on sellers is just a tax on buyers whenever they sell stuff to later buy
Cope
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
flipping is not an intended part of the game and doesnt help the economy in any way
Yeah the sellers will simply list it for a little extra, there's the sales tax
Yeh flipping is just a byproduct of free trade
That's not a possibility anymore. 99% of people that type are scammers lol
its the stock market without any positive investment
Its not free trade, we already pay taxes when selling.
Bond moment
Barely.
Thats the GE tax, not the trade tax
5 outta 6 of these items drastically needed sinking, but should the DHL be the DHCB? Dhcb needs more love than DHL no?
sure for bonds, but flipping adamant chestplates doesnt help anyone
Even .00001% negates the term FREE TRADE
Sink everything
welcome to the real world buddy
....that's literally a trade tax .....
What's the definition of "advanced contract" for the combat achievement
tarrifs go brrr
You can trade outside the ge
Will chivalry ever get added to pures?
Woahhh when they add that? XD
Are you allowed to get an item and then go trade that item to another player for 0% tax for whatever cost you wish?
Not without high risk of trading with someone who RWTs
who said anything about this being for irons tho
the standard fight is standard contract, since you sign a deal with him
everything else is an advanced contract
also to be fair anyone who tries to trade outside the ge in 2025 is going to instantly be assumed to be scamming
maybe by the time i get to the present it will all be clear
It's not a super viable alternative
tbf it was really predictable though
so acquisition ones too?
Not worth the risk.
and it's also not near 0 time profit like item flipping would be
the ge tax is a big deal and does a lot of great stuff they just have to keep it tuned and actually doing its job
I help run an item delivery clan where we regularly delivery and trade items ranging from buckets to tbows
None of our runners get hit with RWT warnings for simple 1:1 value trades
its better for everyone
Tax irons 2% of gold drops
makes your gp/items worth more
When 10k drops
chat, is there downtime for the update?
Delete 200
No
Better put up some of my offers 👀
You're not gonna get hit with an RWT warning for trading a tbow worth 1.1b for 1.1b
how lnog will game be down for
3-4 hours
Truther
If you give a random level 3 2b over 5 trades then yeah you might see a rwt hit
usually no downtime, just a client restart
think its like 1-2 days
it will take at least 0 minutes
If they bought that GP with real world money. Jagex tracks where the GP goes... They've said this before.
they're trolling
Everytime someone asks how long downtime will be jagex adds one second to downtime
Few days
They've literally said if you're not rwting you're not gonna get hit with it, raid splits are safe, and even running bingos are safe

GP that is rwted isn't some poison pill now that it's in the game, if it's used for legitimate purchases they don't go after the person who made a legit deal with the person who rwted
Everyone saying "my friend got hit wrongly" are giga coping
You won't get banned for trading with someone who RWTed once
It's if you have a pattern
Of trading with the same RWT
Have the game run an annual audit on your bank value and issue a capital gains tax on any positive trajectory with item value
Again
We've been running an item delivery service for almost a decade now, oftentimes people will tip us on top of what we deliver, sometimes we deliver megarares to random ass places
All throughout that time, none of our deliverers have ever gotten an rwt warning over the hundreds of thousands of trades we've done
False reporting = irl prison
It's such an overblown worry
pineapple is NOT Yama's favorite his favorite is jalapeno
sounds like fanfic
You tell em
nah that's real
Its not because my buddy has a RWT warning.
It's real, give Yama all 4 types and you get the dialog
He didn't
yeah im ngl i do splits regularly and also just simply trade a lot of wealth once in awhile with my iron/main nothing ever happens

im not telling anyone to do this either but i also know people that rwt with each other and they also don't get banned
if you get caught for rwt
you did it
lmao
He streams all gameplay
im sure they make some mistakes once in a million years
but they'll probably fix it up if they do
From login to logout
well it's ... cheaper still?
Yes it's impossible to simply log in and not stream you rwting
He's also in the other room
Convinced this is a troll account now
They dropped the ball once again on this one
I bet you have to convince yourself of a lot of things bud.
Don't you have to convince yourself you're bringing some sort of value to the game by being a leech on trades
He’s “playing the game”
They joined the discord today
Not really. Its an aspect of the game. So I utilize it.
If you make more than 10 trades a day you get a 10% tax
Why stop there
we can go deeper
5% wouldnt kill flipping, the prices would just adjust
Because half the time, the profit is less than 2% per trade
1% ge tax didn't kill flipping
i don't see why 2% would
You are bad at trading
I need to flip to feed my family
You assume
Guess you gotta stop flipping those items with less than 2% profit
ngl
Probably not since I made 400m this month doing it
And you assume the reverse
Common sense isn’t so common
And you paid 600m in taxes this week?
Making less than 2% on trades is not even worth the effort
i would take the death of flipping in less than a heartbeat if it meant gp and items were retaining value
thats an easy fucking trade lol
yeah, i don't care about flippers
art of the deal
it's one thing to make an investment and hold an item
but without them, seaweed farming trips will take a lot longer
Day trading on the ge is such a deranged concept
just sitting at ge and just buying things and selling them right back all day and marveling at how much money you've made when you could have been, you know, actually playing the game
Turns out we we see fewer people flip, the prices will start falling, resulting in more people wanting to flip
yeah im not against them existing but honestly if that's all that is standing in the way of actually playing the game being better
cya
But but im trying to forex trade iron bars to mith ore
it sounds like a pretty miserable way to spend your time logged in
but hey there isn't a wrong way to play the game
Flipping / Playing the economy is fun
No, there is
I'm so glad you can read.
well this week you can pay 1.2b in taxes :D
Someone tell bro about uim
anyway I heard pineapple pizzas are a hot commodity rn
it also doesn't take a lot of active time to do
No, I know for a fact lol.
2k ea
you can set it, let offer fill and then come back later
Huh?
did you know you can combine pizza halves
or 100 for access forever
maybe there's your money maker
Wow i did not expect so many changes, very pog
back 2 eoc!!!
I flip on one account. Do quests with my wife on another.
It reads like per attempt
yeah i'll just loot contracts honestly
probably per attempt
that would be far too based to be real
get your wife some pineapple pizzas
she deserves it
treat her
in a few hours she'll be RICH
She's already rich lol
inb4 pineapple pizza 20k ea
irons actually creating 100 pizzas per attempt is absolutely demonic
very on theme but lmfao
welcome to 2% tax land
how long we looking fellers? <#
should already be up
i'm kinda conflicted bc i like that it's accessible to irons, but shopscape sucks and there's only 5 in stock :c
damn, Trumps tarrifs now affecting OSRs?
okay let's see what's broken in runelite
yeah it would be the kind of iron gameplay nobody really wants
how longs update please
Do you guys think that Jagex took a page out of trumps book with these new trading tarifs? they increased them by a 100% of what they used to be?
Interesting splash screen
so i have 500 yama KC but the KC tasks for CA's arent auto completed?
They will be
thats not funny
???
Think they took out of Ray Charles notebook with the contract release
did u open ca panel?
yes how else would i know that they arent completed
by not getting the notification they were completed...
every ca update i get further and further away from master
nope

How do they continue to screw these things up…
have ppl already started complaining about tax
?
Of course
Wait i just paid 0 tax on my finished GE contract from before the update
Ooo yeahh
The economy will never adjust!!
sold 4 bloddy blows contract for 1m each and got paid out 4m
They'll retroactively complete on your next kill I think
I've been leaving them on the floor 😭
thanks goblin, any reason why this one were forced to do another kill whereas others were soon as we opened the interface?
"forced to do another kill"
GE tax is alright. Soulflame horn is still useless with dragon and burning claws - even just removing the guaranteed hit entirely and having it only give the 100% accuracy buff to the first roll (like it does in PvP) is better
i think tax is really good honestly for the game
wish it went up to 5% instead though
Now its gonna say 304
yeah the horn sucks but i guess thats intended
i dislike you very much zen
i hate the ge tax raise, but if jagex thinks it's necessary, i'll accept it
did anyone have any luck giving yama the 100 pineapple pizzas? not sure what im doing wrong
itd be alot better imo if they made horn work in solo scenarios
like wierd cap on it
GE tax is good for the game, it keeps prices high and prevents people from selling gear
why would preventing people from selling gear be good
less supply
Also why do cox deaths reset surge pot cooldown, but not deaths in the other two raids…
= higher price
it doesn't prevent them from selling gear
Not entirely sure, I presume there's a valid technical reason for it, and people will have to send more kills for the time CAs anyway so if it's 'safer' to do then it's still effectively automated for people trying to complete them all
thats just what they said before the luxury of using the ge for the last million years kicks in
and they do it anyways
then they realize its fine
same thing happened with the first 1% lol

It doesnt prevent you from selling. It simply forces you to make a decision on what items to keep banked opposed to constantly buying and selling gear at your will
The market will adjust upwards 1% again
alright sweet sweet. also uhh what the hell is the shadow crash attack?
it wont even be part of the decision honestly
3 meteors that make a fun shadow bow tie on the floor
well not for most people anyways
Being in a clan, we simply trade items and say screw the ge 
hourglass enrage attack
Enough people isnta sell that they're not within razor thin trade margin anyways
i could see it being rough for people doing some specific things but
what is the center of the shadow crash though
Tbh remove the 5m tax limit
that...should be changed to hourglass or something shadow dancer mixed with shadow crasher is just very misleading lol
does this mean you have to know where the two waves meet and never be away from that, or only during the special?
i mean it should be
waves =! crash
this wording isn't making a lot of sense to me
there probably shouldn't really be a 5m limit
by what goblin just said its the hourglass
so nothing to do with shadow attacks at all
if you removed it most of the items people would care about are a low enough volume that they really would quit the ge
and use the forums etc
and you dont want that
you do want to keep sinking their gp
i too have no idea what the shadow crash attack it
oh is shadow crash the hourglass fireballs from p3?
Oh I see
Did jagex not confirm drop rates
Vampire meteors when?
Wiki has had them in full since last week, made a reference to it in the post
they low key told the wiki what they are iirc
bad wording for the CA when its been called hourglass since release. dont think ive ever heard a single person call it shadow crash lol
i still think i don't know what shadow crash is
tbf though
i love the wiki but that is a bit weird
you'd think you would tell everyone else too
Were the contract changes tested this time ?
Can uims give unnoted pizza or does it have to be noted @winter hearth (currently no way to get noted)
p3 the sequence of 3 sets of fire balls falling from the sky
oh okay
Noted, have raised with the team since it's not exactly an 'intentional' UIM block but not sure if it's easily adjustable
and also is it 100 pizza per attempt or a 1 off unlock
CAs not auto completing @winter hearth
They know
Get 1 kc
U have tomdo one kill nylo
oooh be careful using the word "easily" in the tech world, the devs will get angry! xD
thank you!
They'll update on your next kill
Except speed times ? Or are they back tracked like previous Ca’s?
Fine i will do 1 more yama kill and get another oathplate piece
is osrs back up?
contract one not auto completed
Yes
Speed times are an avg kill time of 4 kills no way they do
Not sure why they did that decision just makes it even more annoying to get
Solid update
do another contract xdddd
more skill less rng
Speed times not retroactively completed because of the averaging
What about contract one?
I think these require another Contract kc, have already raised with the team to see if they can retroactively complete for anybody who's obtained a purifying sigil piece or has a piece of radiant oathplate, but I don't think they're specifically 'tracked'. That said, the fights are a little different today so perhaps having to do another makes some sense, but it's been raised already
bruh
yeah i kinda feel bad for people if that can't be changed lol
Just send the worm contract real quick doesn’t have to be a radiant one
otoh contracts are supposed to be easier now, so if they could do the previous ones they should be okay to do one more
yeah its just idk how much they paid to have already done it or how long it took them
Yeah but like, it's the same fight lol
real reason you'd be undercutting the whole concept of contracts and why they'd enjoy having people purchase attempts at CAs
No contract, no ca 🙂
it says "non-standard contracts" would assume that means a radiant piece one
It does
"standard" is normal yama
As far as I'm aware
Thank you
cancel all contract buy orders!!!
Mods, put egg on these guys faces
thats honestly very nice of the contract creators
so standard contract is worm - oath plate - pet? And non standard is radiant ?
i thought so but it seems i was wrong
Standard is normal Yama. Advanced Yama is any contract that you use after that
anything that is not the 'default' Yama fight is an 'advanced contract' fight
Awsome thanks for clarifying
You sign a contract to fight the normal version
before you first fought Yama, you signed his 'standard' contract by holding down spacebar
Goblin noooo
ya thats probably going to confuse people
read the text 😦 devs work hard on that
the only reason we hold spacebar is because this game doesn't allow addons that fully skip the text
but yeah lol
Same as people spacebarring through AKD on release and complaining that it's boring - the story was good 😦
but thats not exactly what i mean though
i think most people know thematically they signed a contract but when they read an update post
their brains probably aren't working that way
Is it 100x pizzas per attempts for the harder mode?
Is this someone's idea of a protest?
they're going to assume a difference in the contracts in the contract system
yeah
Perfect ty
I keep telling my clan that the lore is actually as good as some triple AAA titles but they just keep holding the space bar 😭 they don't even know why the wildy exists
