Been at bandos on and off for 6 months
But I guess maybe they just decided it's an acceptable level of damage
What can I do sarnie
I was able to dupe an egg just to test it out I hope I don't get banned
What F2P content is coming with the expansion drop this week ?
Please don’t rollback i got items earlier rare items and im just fine
Hopefully the situation is salvageable come morning.
🙂
I posted all my photos to jagex page
I can't say anything atm homie - I'm sorry
Guys go get people from ff14 to play osrs, if we hit 300k players stuff gonna break again
that sucks... wanna borrow mine? 18kc tassets that may be rolled back
Sarnie’s patience is otherwordly
I just can't believe this. All the time put into this and I finally got this. Now its just gone???
brother is just tassets
You know youre in the right place when a jmod says homie
Bro it’s tassets lmao
So what might be nothing to you. But I been here 6 months
It’s a computer game, shit happens
yeah but imagine if he lost something good
But he didn’t .
go kill more bandos or go to relvent content like perilous moons/yama
Nah I’d be upset lol
F in the chat for maddens tassets
you couldve gotten the bandos pet and lost it
F
Still able to produce dupes post patch - release DMM dates and il release how to do it.
F
imagine how much worse it would feel if you got the pet but lost it to a rollback
Make a 1def pure, you won’t need tassets
Madden youll get your day in the sun soon brother i promise
Are you iron?
Its good tyeso me.
my man have you just been afking? how have you been at bandos for 6 months. I get it if you dont have much time to play but 6 months is way too extreme
is it better to have had tassets and lost them or to never have had the tassets at all
I afk and do bandos when I get some time
Not everyone plays the same amount you do
just think, you'll be one of the few ironmen to know what its like to get two tasset logs
Are you an Ironman though
No
Yes iron Madden is iron lol
Wow
exactly, you'll know what its like to get it twice
My c log is back to before I got them
how many others can say they got the clog twice
yes, becuase it rolled you back to a saved state before you got them
imagine how good itll feel to get them again
That sucks dude . Maybe they can help you out. Message them on twitter?
you could get them on the next kill
get blood moon, and write it off as a loss, ggs
So what happened while I wasn't on
They should square you away I wouldn’t worry too much
and then they decide to rollback tomorrow morning 
Ah sounds like poor decisions
To be fair, rollbacks are genuine last resorts.
come fly at yamalama
^
A rollback for tassets would be insane
Yeah theyre exactly for what he just described though
Rollbacks are do now or never
And deciding not to now means the consequences of doing it later is worse and worse
unsure if you can still dupe or not but if whatever fix they deployed stopped duping i'm sure they'd prefer to just manually approach the ~500 people duping consequential items than rollback the servers 10+ hourrs
After assessing the damage, yes
This
Waiting to assess DMG makes the amount rolled back harder lol
yeah.. I'd take that "No rollbacks are planned." with a pinch of salt.. once they assess the damages in the morning that could change
which will be 8-10 hours from now and would mean rolling 200k people back 12 hours
Depends how much doubling people were able to do
No they cant roll back a whole day that's stupid what you do
I can't play mo more tonight I am sick this is crazy.
its not as if 20,000 ppl were duping t bows
Hope no one else has to go through this
Usually you take servers offline while assessing DMG
Them not doing it is just...
Welp
taking the servers offline when you hit 200,000 player milestone seems foolish if you can do anything to avoid it
How many people here did this happen to?
or just ever really
Yeah they're just hoping the damage wasn't too bad basically
Happened to me.
And knew about the bug and how to do it
I would assume the MODS who have access to the information, made the decision to hold off as to prevent any more loss of progress of items
we know
So thousands of players
Personally I think we should roll back the servers to 0600 UTC on july 18th which has nothing to do with my hardcore ironman dying
anyone have tassets to sell
this was obviously an issue since that exact time
Most worlds run around 1k lately
Honestly deserved
i got some spare on my iron
how many of them are bots? 🤣
Weirdest thing- found a pair on ground in bandos room at 5:41pm
You want?
Gf Beast.
Yall are some bullies
Nah but really player save data huh
seeya in another 6 months lad
I wonder what kind of tech debt theyre in with that system
You should be good now beast, check again
@blissful owl
...
The guy suffered enough
Stop being jerks to him just cuz he's upset over losing something
Tbf id be mad too
same but at least the mods will see us talking about it so much and go help him out
They won't
said he was leaving like 6 times already
Aye man gotta find some light in a shitty situation, feel for the dude, but at the end of the day it's a game and should keep things in perspective
Imagine doing anything for any length of time and jagex servers being ass so you effectively wasted your time
And people ping him to come back
bro its runescape we're wasting our time regardless 
like UIMs?
Like some of the ding dongs in #old-school
definitely an unfortunate situation for the individual. Gotta have a good attitude about these things that are totally outta your control though
if you quit over a tassets roll back, then you wouldnt survived anyways
They ban ppl for this on the discord lol
I don’t think he was too upset about it. He seemed alright . He knows good ol jagex will take care of him
They have a system that detects a loss of items outside of normal parameters. All the nerds freaking out over lost items will see them back in due time
Idk probably should roast jagex not be happy to have you guys fucking me over vibes
Their policy on rolled back items is "sorry but no"
Those are the same vibes yall were putting out just a moment ago
Cases where it's like the gim storage bug yeah they'll return
But for personal rollbacks unfortunately they typically don't return anything
Too bad he's not a streamer
This is so freaking wrong dewd
That's just moronic. They have given items back from issues like this numerous times since they developed the system. Most recently a bug making UIM death piles respawn and they gave all them their stuff back about 6 months ago. You're just ignorant
im sick to my stomach
Uim is special case
No
Cuz they're a tiny pop
@wild pawn Do not post misinformation thanks 
And it's the entire account
LOL
Fml @blissful owl I hope jagex does the right thing
Tagged the wrong guy nvm LOL
What about GIm storage items they refund for issues they get
So they give back all items except when it's convenient for you to Doomsday?
posting official osrs tweet misinformation 
Look at the date
wtf i got trolled!!!!
lol
Can someone help me?
No
Is it possible for someone to lift a finger
I'll give you a toe
Just go kill the yama bro
is it safe to log out? im about to get nerd logged at wintertodt 3:
stay logged in at all costs
True @celest sail you should just kill yama for claws
imagine getting horn so ur claws never hit 0 omg.....i just got chills
logging out is xp loss
I wasn’t even killing Yama. Where did that come from?
I logged out and im fine. World 448 is safe
I was doing challenge mode chambers of xeric
Should've been Yama.
Thats my bad. I was making a joke from something earlier
Didn't you know CMS are bugged rn
I was going for fire cape when I was this 😂 thank God
better now than wed
Damnit Jagex, my e-girl goth mommy said yes to a date then we got rolled back and, now I don't have a date
At least it wasn’t bandos. I would hate to lose tassets
i cant wait to spend hours trying to get into the game on wednesday
I'm sorry but that's just how it is. Their policy for specifically rolled-back items is outside of other bugs. GIM storage, UIM death pile deletion etc all were separate bugs that they were able to recover. They've basically never done specifically rollback returns. If you have evidence otherwise I'd love to see it
Bro can you imagine a perfect update for varla 3. Gnomonkey doesn't release a manifesto about his bad the delve boss is. Peak player counts, no Ditter shitter in BMM, then rollbacks out the ass cuz too many players
Yeah except we all know what's likely to happen
What have I missed?
The rest of the varlamore updates showed us
Chaos
I hope it doesn't of course but it'll drop and rates won't be real because theyre too scared it won't be perfect
Literally every time their server deletes an item that is outside of parameters it's tracked in their system, and put into a queue they manually review and give back for issues on their server end. This isn't a "bug" this is server malfunction. This isn't a bug the player ran into. This is actually the server deleting / failing to save.
And we will get 7 updates in a row buffing stuff
That doesn’t narrow it down
About a month ago, w478 had a rollback. They didn't return any items.
You can disagree with their policy but it is what it is.
can we get an update that allows ironman to trade up to 10k at a time? I cant buy a gf at ge
Even JMods on those posts about rollbacks typically say they don't return the items.
Server load issues causing player save state issues.
Dupes, ironman drops not getting saved. Getting tasseys and hoping worlds and they disappear. Same with fire capes
Im ngl though
Wow players come over and ruin our game
Here's one from 9 months ago - no items returned to anyone.
How does a micro-rollback cause dupes?
I think its good that they have so many players its causing issues but
Why do they offer more player capacity than they can handle
Youd think they would at least know they can handle every world hitting 2k
you trade your tbow to your friend/2nd acc, you get yourself rolled back, now you both have tbow
Otherwise they need to lower the world caps
some dupes are def happening
please
Rekt ^
my ironman brain forgot trading even exists lol
keep w330 at 2k or 3k, but average worlds suck 1k+
They simply don't do rollback returns
You can call me "ignorant" but you still won't be correct that they'll return the items.
There's been many many times a world has crashed and rolled back, and they don't return the items.
OSRScorders are on one today lmao
Items returned = issue wasnt widespread enough to require hundreds of hours of manual labor
they've said numerous times that they don't do item returns, but have done it despite that on small scale basis
Yeah they'll do it for very specific bugs
just need to be a popular streamer
Or things Jagex did a an accident on
having a maximum capacity of 2k on every world does not equate to the infrastructue being able to support such a number.
I'm sure large server wide issues they will take care of. As said in the link. They have a system that tracks these lost items.
Have you been around much because this has been a thing before and they don't do it
Worlds have gone down in the past few months with the same rollback of a few minutes
And they didn't return anything
they do, BUT it's often do not
but since they have upgraded their system and have been doing it recently. They most likely will
Uims is the only case I've heard of honestly
Yeah you have to get lucky or be popular
Correct. This is not an often occurrence. This is a very rare mishap of the server deleting items.
Tbh I really hate how im not even kidding about the popular thing
nope, exists in all shapes and forms and realities
Gim storage gets refunded and UIMS. Mains don't often lose items because this kind of stuff doesn't happen. Cuz they're not juggling gear or putting stuff in group storage. Most lost items are due to a main fucking up something
thats not limited to Jagex though. With everything, action only gets taken when the voice is large enough.
either individually or collectively
Jagex just says it's too much work and doesn't do it
Most games aren't a 20 year old point and click Spaghetti java code
But they've got the bad combination of not doing much and doing backflips if you have 2k viewers
im guess with GIM storage is that they get saved and "screenshot" more frequently than a normal players storage does, hence why its typically easier for them to restore said items
Also they will be more likely to refund an item that already exists than a drop lost to roll back
Presumably GIM storage is "screenshotted" every time someone makes and change and saves it, whereas player progress is saved on logout.
Cuz there's proof it existed in their system
^
Nah, when they developed the system to detect GIM storage deleted items. It tracks all items deleted outside of normal parameters. (Despawning, double death, trade, pk death, etc.) When an item is deleted that doesn't meet that criteria it's flagged. For all accountz
mmhhmm
That system would not catch dupes
They talked about it extensively during the Winter summit last year
so what happened
good thing there's more than 1 system
freaky mode activated
Too many players save state broke on some worlds items deleted or duped
I imagine Jagex saying no roll backs cos they can identify the bug abusers, 100% perm ban them
Worlds have crashed and had short rollbacks since winter summit
They didn't return those items then either
It's a very small list of bugs they return items for
A 15 minute rollback isn't as destructive as items being deleted for numerous people over a 12 hour period
why a 12 hour period though?
Did this happen this morning or afternoon
Not to mention a timer was put up warning players game worlds were being taken down
when?
Iirc they don't have save states being taken every hour of every day. They save the game world once or twice a day. So a rollback would affect people for longer than the bug was.
also dont forget jagex are UK based, its currently 1am so their 'investigate in the morning' is likely to start about 7 hours from now
nice item duplication
Is it safe to go back to my fire cape attempt? Any recent reports of items disappearing?
Should be ok now
Is it safe to play now? I just got rolled back 45 minutes.
Say wallah rn
tf does wallah even mean
Its like saying "for real"
No cap. Sounds like it's the time to spam buy and apply bonds to have the save state rolled back
that sounds like bug abuse
It is. I shoulda put some sort of sarcasm footer on it
My first thought was "I wonder if I could use my GIM to dupe items" and my second thought was "No wait that's against the rules and would ruin the game"
I just wanna grind slayer but I don't want a rollback
idk what the context is but lm now legally required to respond to this with for real
can demonics PLEASE swap attacks less often
I mean the fact that they didn't turn servers off like immediately is
Something
Idk if they maybe didn't scope out what was going on fully or what but someone likely isn't going to be happy manually adjusting everything later
like we have footage of it happening to people there's no way that people didn't even accidentally just dupe tons of shit and that tons of other people lost important items
maybe we just got super lucky that someone happened to record it but i imagine it happened a lot
tbow bush my beloved
sadlife, probly aint going to be a bowfa skip
well no chance it will be a bowfa skip
im ngl if you're an iron
there is one single bowfa skip and that is somehow getting carried to the luckiest tbow of your life
if that doesn't happen everything else people say is bs lol
Don't people atlatl to skip bowfa
yeah but thats just self trolling
lmao like
you're only hurting yourself trying to do that
You can go like barrows, moons, synapse, yama right?
yeah that should be fine you're not using a bowfa for any of that content
Yeah it's the alternative method
it comes back around though when you're standing in toa or cox or sara or muspah or zulrah or you know what i mean
You can also rush toa and just spoon a shadow and fang lol
Nhally chally zulrah is an option too
you also lose all of the really nice loot from doing cg in the first place
its not impossible to not do it
Yeah, it's still a viable path for sure
its just not smart to skip it
No longer trolling to not do
im ngl i think its still trolling not to do it
Ya I'm not like super up to date on iron metas
its just because no matter how you want to look at it it comes down to you using the atlatl somewhere where you're like
on a huge gnomonkey cope train pretending its not terrible compared to bowfa
even tbow is pretty shit midgame
and cg gives tons of rune arrows
majority in early game
yeah but the tbow thing is at least able to step in and actually like
go hard in the places where bowfa really is just way better than the other stuff
so if you got a tbow you realistically can skip and not hurt yourself in the long run
yee thats true
I just remember hearing the demon route is quite solid
still shit to do td with what
rune crossbow?
off upkeep
the demon stuff is good until you finish yama
Hunter crossbow
upkeep is crazy
and then you remember you gotta actually still do your raids and everything else you'd been trying to ignore
And make scobow first synapse
and then? your going to grind bowfa after yama?
Do moonlight antelope is easy
now you shot yourself in the leg
Or just msb should be better than rcb
where rune arrows
well there was this big thing for awhile where people were trying to present scobo as like a bowfa lite
LMS?
and idk why they kept saying that to everyone
pretty sheet way to get them
Rune arrows aren't a choke point
because that thing is trash when you're not shooting demons
the real alternative is the atlatl
and it kinda works but its pretty significantly worse still
TDs are guaranteed hit half the time
well see with the new flethcing game, but i have no hopes for it
yep, but whats after that? going with atlatl to raids?
its so insanely worse then bowfa in toa
and gwd
i guess the new mage staff has potenial
but cg just so insnaly alot of gold
gems
and baically a mega weapon
yep
also you lose set effect on tds right
wiht atlas
bowfa aswell but not to big
35% more dps then eclipse
jezzzzzzzzzzzzzz
on td
Yeah, my point is that you can get raid ready skipping bowfa
Barrows moons TDs
The demon opens a lot
ye
but after yama
sure you can grind tbow
till insanly long grind
and eye of arrak isnt cheap to use
i guess you grind shadow first
BP masori is better than bowfa as people love saying lol
weird
It's probably grind toa
lets calculate
without rigour, bowfa is better
and with rune darts
as gl upkeeping anytihng better then that
amethyst?
Amethyst?
and also gl upkeeping rune dart if bp is main weapon
fi you gotta go ouit of your way to mine amethys
then bowfa just becomes
insaly much better
Amethyst is afk, kinda 0 time almost
sheet xp, not really that afk, and boring
but i guess people like it
rune arrows from pvm>amethyst with tbow also
getting to 92 mining is 0 time?
It's slated to be 2x death 1x chaos per charge no? For its stated position between sanguinesti and shadow that seems quite cheap to me
then mining amethys
Is that a good way to get 99?
I did it that way slowly
ye,, but its almost twice as fast as shadow right
But I'm a main
How much XP/hr is it?
so its 0,7death runes and 0,33 chaos per tick
Fair didn't think bout 3ticker
post 92, its a fine way to 99, nice afk activity while watching show/movie
Is it faster than stars and more AFK than stars?
nope
stars give shit resources
far away from same afk
u can always use amyth ammo
Faster not more afk
21k xp an hour
mining gloves as well
mining
Ye by the time you are worrying about 99ing mining you should be far past gems for xp from stars
I’m 87 Mining I think
I can see clay for tabs though
I was going to do MLM but that STUPID piece of rock on the upper floor is annoying
if yr going to need the ammo, for slightly less xp
why the hell not
at least you get something in return for the grind
I forget we aren't in the iron chat excuse my bias lmao
mlm u got idiots who dont know the spots run off timers and spread out, or just bots on the upper floor
Masori bp is better than bofa if you assume no tick loss, which 99% of people cant do lol
But yeah amethyst ammo is always useful and 99 mining isn't something to sprint for most of the time
its the same as saying cutting magic trees
Maximizing useful mats on the way there is preferable
since magic logs will always have a use
i did magic's cuz forestry didnt spawn at redwoods
the exact reason i did bloods/souls instead of running zmi for 99 rc
but ye, going out of your way to get ammo, makes it so insanly horribol dps
while bowfa is just there unlimited
well armor has some minimal upkeep
but 5min of pickpocketing is like 400hours?
dont forget cg's 2nd big draw, the alch's and cash it brings during the grind
dont even have to pickpocket anymore unless u finish cg sub 200
and even then u got weapon seads u turn into acorns and zalcano (if u want) that are decent
or 2tick teaks
if u sweaty
Youll probs do ame grind anyways for bp at TOB
so?
So its not technically a time loss
If ur gonna do it anyways
no they don't
I still think bofa is better
amethyst is actually useful
^^^^
magic logs are actually usefull aswell
mainly irons but it's cheap on mains too
birdhouses, fletching
nawh magic logs are a waste
You get better xp rates in all other activities as soon as you factor in getting magic logs time
Thats known
I'd say most people afk redwoods, yeah
Ya redwoods are for afk
I mean, unless the persons goal is to max the only reason to lvl mining is for the amethyst
And only psychos powermine
Saw someone mentioned on reddit that duping happened during the peak time yesterday(in this case duping of blue dragon scale) I do wonder if jagex knows if this happened on a bigger scale or not. Since they said no rollbacks
no rollsbacks if there really is duping happening is insane
The duping was accidental and couldn’t really be coordinated en mass
Because you didn’t know if you were effected until you logged out
And you wouldn’t know if it persisted
ah then I imagine it couldn't have been that impactful
Im sure a bunch of people got lucky
But its just getting pk'd by your alt, then logging out, not that hardest to keep doing with items actually worth something
Ye drop item, log out easy right, that's the method?
But i don’t think enough people had time to run a bunch of tries
I believe it was completely random like in a huge pool
yeh its random
Like itd be lucky af to get it once
but if you do it with like a mega rare or something
Let alone be able to do it multiple times or purposely trigger it
dont have to be lucky many times for it to matter
Ur not wrong
If they arent rolling back it must not have happened on a big enough scale
You couldn't go exponential tho
Theyll probably remove the items manually
Was the big deal
hopefully yeh, and hopefully they can remove any items duped that actually were impacting
Like i saw a post about someone accidentally duping their fero gloves lol
I think if its under a certain value they probs wont even remove them
i for sure think some unintended dupes happened more than intended ones
But they’ll definitely get mega rares and 3rd age etc
No need to spend time removing the extra blue dragon scale
but yeh, a 3rd age pickaxe dupe might want to look at that
hopefully jagex are monitoring certain insane value items more though, i bet they are
I would absolutely just dupe gp if I had this power
And buy up high volume commodities
yep, couldnt dupe more than ½ max cash at at time though
"atleast"
Just make plat
true
But the real limiting factor
Is that you couldnt double the extra gold
So if you start with x
You could only go x+x
+x
Instead of going 2,4,8,16
You could do that with platinum though
You only go back to your reset point
Like i give u all my sht if i know i have the bug then relog, check to see if bug is gone, then get the items back so friend can safely log incase they have it
yeh with a single account, not with 2
Even with 2
You trade stuff over, relog
You have the original trade over again relog
No guarantee you can affect the reset point unless you can move it forward reliably
you just switch between p1 and p2 holding it every time though?
dont have to be p1 logging out every time
i retract all my talks about a rollback as i just got a tbow on my iron
Do you think some items have they're own code?
P2 goes back to before you traded over
Fuck ya
Gz man
No guarantee they will reset to post trade
they shouldnt have their own item id, if thats what you meant?
I know the party hat in the wiseoldman bank breakin has its own id, and is actually not a real part hat
Well maybe it has same item id, but with some extra codes behind, so if something gets dupped, it would have same id
If you hand over and relog, good chance you have 100 I have 300
Items do not have unique identifiers lol
They're mutable
They'll have to do manually following trades I bet
Fun day for whoever gets that job
You could just track how many of an item exist, you have a pretty good rate on how fast that item increases in number of items existing. So if its a lot you can check what happened
They might just not try that hard though, looks like people didn't really go as hard as I feared with the duping
Jagex tracks a shit ton of stuff we arent told about, can only guess what it is though
purple partyhat went from being the most expensive party hat to the least one, back in the day, because that was the one getting duped
but that was at a big scale
I think you have a small group of people that spend a lot of time just trying to see if duping is possible
They do have a bunch of systems in place to track items
Proboly tracks people pick up item and trades also right
I guess that's how they do it ye
i do get the feeling they might not have been locked in on the scale of what was happening
the fact that people have recorded evidence of crazy things happening like to that guys ely tells me that it probably happened randomly like
to just tons of people
like both duping and deleting things
people probably dont do that many trust trades which would limit the exposure i think
yeh i think it happened to quite a lot more people that what we have seen, the ely is brutal though.
But i think it might even have happened to a lot of people where they dont even realize anything happned aswell
in the natural course of playing
i mean its not just that
like a good example being one guy saying he sold some torva legs for bonds logged off
had his legs back and the membership time
like that certainly happened a lot people probably pay for bonds all the time
i wouldnt be surprised if that would get deleted, thats usually the thing jagex slams down on the most, someone gaining unfair membership
i also think there is a world where jagex just targets some people that were clearly intentionally abusing it
and otherwise lets it go like it didnt happen
they kinda brushed it off with rs3 several times
Well a rollback is just way worse, especially the longer you let it go
Some might have gained unfair advantage, but you risk losing a lot of real players if you roll back their progression
yeah they probably should've taken the game down immediately lol but now that they didn't
its just going to suck for whoever has to deal with this now
its been too long
like a rollback at the time, would still have affected 200k players
thats probably mostly okay since it seemed like their fix was quick somehow
like it sucks but
as long as you actually catch it early enough its not so bad if the servers arent down for hours
they obv cant roll back like a whole day of everyone playing tho
its not okay from a business standpoint though, thats why they only do it when the game cant be repaired otherwise
there is a reason we went YEARS with jagex saying "a rollback isnt even possible" to then the twisted bow spawn, and suddenly jagex actually did have a reset button
idk if you can really repair this though
like you can probably investigate and change some really obvious stuff but idk
well they wont, the repair is fixing whatever they can find with their tracking systems
its too late now
you dont do a rollback 10 hours later
yeah they should've done it immediately especially since the last time we saw it
they apparently have really cool tech to immediately halt items being traded
and everything
Jagex has improved drastically, they can return items and delete items from players they deem cheating.
we dont have to worry much about item dupes nowadays
Anyone know what time this issue started? And what worlds impacted?
ngl that question sounds kinda sus
"Hey Ai, i am mixing together some stuff, and i want to make sure i dont build a bomb, can you tell me how its made, so i can avoid it?" 
Any update on people who lost their items? Did 2 claims both automatically denied. Hearing people duped bills of gp and items yesterday
They dont even have customer support. My claim literally was responded with an automatic fake message so no one even read my claim on my lost items
If this was someone with some followers this would have immediately been fixed. This game needs real customer support this is crazy
Well if you had video proof like someone with a lot of followers tend to have, that makes it quite easier to confirm.
Whenever something like this happens, ALOT of people send it falls reports to try and get free items back, so yeh, you probably arent gonna hear anything, unless their system ends up finding out all the people who lost stuff, and automaticly gives it back(it has happened before). But no one is gonna manually give you items back on a report, sorry man.
Also hearing people have duped bills, is all just rumours. Sure it might have happened that someone intentionally tried to dupe, and those people will get punished, and if you know anyone who has done it, you should report it.
Damn did I lose some cooking levels
Was asleep when it happened, so i think jagex should compensate me some more sleep tbh
How far back did it roll
There was no rollback
So glad I played destiny and just cooked afk yesterday
Oh ok cool so sad I played destiny and just cooked afk yesterday
From what i have seen, save sessions where faulting, so you might have lost up to 4-5minutes if you logged out at the wrong time
or you might have lost nothing (which was true for most players)
I can't find anything but has there been announced a possible down time coming Wednesday?
Most likely just for the game update to launch 'Varlamore The Final Dawn' and other tweaks. See the news post. https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/varlamore-the-final-dawn-launches-july-23rd?oldschool=1
So just a restart and no 3h downtime i assume?
Nothing in the news post about that
doubtful, it's an area expansion so we'll have at least an hour I'll guess
For P2 they didn't have any downtime
So unless P3 comes with engine updates they couldn't pre-deploy it's unlikely we'll see significant downtime
fair then
There is no official word regarding how long it will be. Members of the community can only guess at the current time. Stay tuned to the official channels for official updates. 🙂
I believe they've said recently that unless an update has a chance of affecting the save state server, there's no need to test the update after going live before players can access as they are already running the updated game on VMs for testing running in parallel - when the update goes live the server manager starts directing people to those updated VMs
Thank you all @slow dove @shadow wave 🙂
You're welcome.
That big server maintenance last week really paid off
And extra 3ms for me and a couple less ellys in the game for everyone else genius
hopefully my ely has increased in value, you are right
With the upcoming slayer changes, does anyone know if your current task will get reset along with the block list ect?
No mention has been made of your task getting canceled, cant see why it would.
Only tasks thats changing is the metal dragons one, and it would probably just change from steel -> metal dragon
Yeh all metals dragons are getting piled into a single task (Bronze->Rune)
People have been asking quite a lot for other combinations aswell
Im guessing the reason they didnt do it, is because it would allow something like duradel (which is supposed to be harder longer tasks) to be done on like hill giants.
But its also just 3(4) bosses at the point, for the bossing slayer master, and its not even a new thing, Kalphites are already 4 enemies turned into 1 combined task
so the blog posts seem to suggest that free pet reclaims are already live in the game but they definitely arent for me, does anyone know when that's gonna happen?
The poll blog?
Its not in game yet no
oh i didn't realize that was a poll blog not an update blog. it's under the non-polled integrrity change section of that post
yeh, its not getting polled, but it was just an announcement that they are going to make it
fantastic, thank you
Should come into the game when its done and tested.
But it most likely wont be this or next week because its probably gonna be varlamore stuff only
my pets are starting to pile up at probita's waiting for the change
mine are just sitting in the poh, gonna be weird starting to have a pet following. Still too many places you cant bring a pet though
if theyre refunding all the payments i'm gonna get a huge stimmy check
^ yeah i was assuming it was just tokens still sitting in there
Oh okay my bad
Guess they're not doing the blog update today like they said
Server issues must have pushed them back some
They said they would do a blog update today?
That's a late update 👀
30 minute downtime huh
People expected a backtrack on demonbane around then
huh, the update is PM?
Midnight thursday?
⏱️ Worlds will go offline at 22:30 following a 45-min in-game countdown timer
Blossom just updated it
is that a typo?
Update at midnight? Wut
Typo
its fixed... aha
Came here just to say I KNOWWWW sorry haha
isnt that still 1 hour off?
😮
with then 30 mins downtime, which makes for 30 min earlier game up
my american friends gonna be pissed
Thank you for using local timestamps honestly
woohoo thats good 🙂
i hope i dont get blocked from the game for multiple hours because of having a jagex account
Ye on Reddit
surely not
that would never happen
Nice, ty!
That does make it look like they are taking a lot of the feedback more serious though, dont think they expected as much feedback as they got
Are the game updates announcing in UTC? Or another time zone?
Posts on other socials will be UTC now, but in Discord we're using the timezone converter so it will show in your own timezone 🙂
Perfect! Thank you so much friend!
Have there been any technical fixes to the recurring launcher issues on update day? It's very frustrating to wake up early to play before work, then sit there watching streams as people play on non jagex accounts but I'm unable to log in
News post at 9:45?
Yep 🙂 9:45 bst
Thank you 
I know 😦 we're very aware of the issues, and we do what we can to mitigate them
I have a very low iq does this mean the game server discord broadcast was wrong?
It's correct now 🙂 I updated it pretty quick
@Announcements
Varlamore: The Final Dawn releases THIS WEDNESDAY! 🦛
⏱️ Worlds will go offline at <t:1753263000:t> following a 45-min in-game countdown timer
👾 Worlds playable at <t:1753264800:t> after 30 min downtime
Thank you
I didn't realize that you would be able to fix that sort of thing in recipient servers
is moonlight antelope's fur still going to have literally 0 use?
I think I did the change before I hit publish luckily, but I think it does update across recipient servers, just a bit slower
You need to pay 1000 of them, 10 rare fossils, and a moon key to fight the Delve Boss
bruh
Uncut gem examine text has been lying for 24 years, get used to it 😂
Sorry, no pet hippos 😦
is it just me or does this almost look like a clue scroll puzzle box image
No leaking
Only if we get a moodeng pet
Allow players using launcher to access updates 30 minutes earlier? That incentivizes people to switch over and allows you all to fix any issues if they occur.
You wana fight Moo Deng? 😦
Very clearly an unwinnable fight
Yes
@vague viper any update on people who lost items do to jagex server issue?
My bug abuse item lost report got automatically animated message saying nothing can do to check my bank. I am wondering if you guys even looked at the footage I sent in??
like we told you yesterday, you're not getting the item back
even if you believe there's a chance they'll restore the item, it's not going to be on a case by case basis like with your support ticket - it's either all or nothing
if they do say they're gonna refund items that were lost, then you'll hear about it likely in #game-news
No no, I want to fight the monster that kidnapped moodeng 
Friend of the pet
Like helping capybaras out from a boss that is attacking them and they follow you because you helped them
Moodeng at my children 
I will fight for moo deng
Exactly
@vague viper let us fight for moo deng pet 
Keep spamming about it . Until you get it back
i know this has been asked a million times already but are we good to game? lol
What do you mean?
good enough! thanks @ember token
I really hope we do get that summer sweep up p2 block update today
but it kinda looks like that may not be happening :/
considering its 18:15(6:15 pm) in UK atm, i doubt we will see it today
tommorrow hopefully
Have we seen them release a blog post during evenings before? cant remmember one
I don't think we've seen blog posts then
Why are soul runes sky rocketed
Has the over priced membership been cut in at least half for a year membership yet?
Increased demand for them because of Yama and Shadow usage, and a big chunk of the ones coming from botters at soul wars got removed
mage yama is incredibly chill
Yep
and you still need dark demonbane even if you're meleeing
Sad.
Want to play but litterally cheaper to buy any game that will give you a year of fun for half the price
Found a few that have my interest and its 5 differwnt games i can play for years that still cost less than a years membership.
feel free to play other games
Civ 6 is free on Epic Games atm, could go play that.
But complaining about it in here wont get you far
Then dont pay for membership?
then do that
Not sure what games are a one time purchase and give years of content
Binding of Isaac
oh yo, ty, only had the standard free edition offered before
Moo Deng gunna be an obtainable pet? or are we getting capybara'd
no moo deng
scam
Civ 6 is free. That soundss off. Big fan of civ. But my point being i dont want to pay more for an oldgame year to year that thakfuly is still around. But i dont want to play other games most days. I want to play osrs. Call of duty is basically fortnight with differnt colors
Scammers for profit have taken over. And im. Tired. of it. Been awhile since i played, but hoping that some of you (as i call it) shits that stand up and try to make a change and get a change for the player and not your purse.
cod has been close to the same game for years, if you still buy that - thats on you. i get so many hours out of osrs that it almost feels like im scamming jagex at this point
? You ok
vast majority of people are fine to keep playing the game at the current pricing, lots of them having grandfathered in membership pricing
very unlikely that you'll manage to inspire hundreds of thousands of people to stop playing in hopes that they lower the membership price
bro...Jagex is a company. I'm sure if they could keep the lights on and continue to employ everyone for free they would. Stop living in fantasy land and pay if you want to play...If you love the game you should be happy to see it thrive
Current pricing keeps microtransactions out of the game, player counts are nearing all time highs. Price isnt going down, just play something else.
You havnt played much cod as it was developed for sure.
Data... no they arnt or i would be they as well as others. Cause are you ai actually defending?!?! How many days have hudreds of thousands been logged in at one momwnt in time
Because i want to hwlp the player base
Rally people to quit playing a game they enjoy?
The playerbase doesn't want help
To help expand the player base
Feel free to make your own choices, I'll make mine
So you say. But we need friends and jagex is not
Continue not playing not on the osrs discord server lol
Maybe we just stop engaging with the blindingly obvious bait
You're just distracting from people who actually want to talk about anything else
you want to help expand/help the playerbase then you should encourage them to not come to the game-updates section on the OSRS discord with reddit bait
more about Moo Deng plz
I still really want to hear about the update to the summer sweep up p2 blog
That was supposed to come out today
Says the guy not listening. I only havr asked and and argued for a fair price for the game in the past. And still asking for it not
Probably got delayed by them investigating the potential dupes
The reaction was so universally negative that I saw re dark demonbane
That I can't imagine they go through with it
Thralls too
What the fuck did I read
Literally everything around the rune changes was bad
You read bait
Thralls I didn't care as much but it was an odd choice
Id offer an oppology but i get the same reaponse each time. Deal with it.
Thralls are just annoying
And the reasoning made no sense
"Oh we'll switch away from bloods to save you a rune slot"
Delete thralls 
Reasoning was avoid requiring bloods
Hear me out. We add a new untradable drop that removes bloods from DC at 1/2500 from delve 8 only
It would only not cost you a rune slot if you were running thralls, dark demonbane, and not dc
No idea
They framed it as saving you a rune slot when you're using thralls and other arceuus spells
And I can't think of any other possible scenarios they had in mind
like... mage only yama?
I guess that's probably it?
You can sgs as mage only
Yeah fair
On judge
I've no idea what they were thinking
So you do value the spec some
It just doesn't make sense
I like don't really care about the thrall change
More souls used whatever
It does seem anachronistic to do it now with soul runes so high
They're also trying to look at dark demonbane and, for mains
Probably would have been better received my mains at least back when souls cost under 200
Adjust it so the price is "lower" only relative to the current inflated soul rune prices
Nah it still would have been bad
Because then 4 chaos runes would have also cost more for mains than 2 souls
What is reddit. Some of us enjoy playing the game... as a game not a profit machine
As it is they're only making dark demonbane more expensive for irons
going to get flack for this but, thralls are too cheap
I feel like the thrall change is one they decided on months ago
And it only doesn't look more expensive to mains because souls are inflated atm
And the demonbane one was recent
And they absolutely don't make sense together
But they took the already decided thing
Idk
Considering that adding chaos runes completely negates the entire reasoning for the thralls change
That's how it worked out in my head
I think part of it is that they want a small nerf to thralls
By making them more expensive
But they don't want to say that it's a nerf
So they're trying to wrap it up in some whole "it's to save rune slots" argument
Even though that doesn't make any sense
you can help the game by just not talking
It'll be less of a nerf if souls drop again (I don't think souls will drop below 300 again)
100m soul stack rn
A bane vs shades might increase morto
Realistically there's not enough soul runes coming into the game to go that low
Did you sell any yesterday mana
not yet
Souls popped to 480
They're coming back down now
The effective profit per hour at 480 is like 8m/hr
Yeah, like under half the profit vs if you sold then lol
id imagine theyre going to spike up on delve day
Hyper sensitive to margins
and come back down
100m souls is like 47b
Depends if shadow good there
unless magic isn't particularly useful at the delve boss
100m in souls* not stack wise
I’m h
The original delve boss rewards weren't really magic focused
Oh that’s only 225k lol
So magic might not even be the play
Especially considering we did literally just get a melee/magic demon boss
What does eye use rune wise
dont think thats known yet?
deaths and chaos?
Oh no souls
Deaths an chaos
That's so cheap then
Or demon tear
it might be even cheaper
we'll see how plentiful demon tears end up being
it's not like the toxic trident where it uses runes and scales
Gonna be cheaper to run than shadow by a solid amount then
it's either or here
I’m betting demon tear is about as good as sunfire splinters
I don’t think the cost is what people complain about when using shadow
The cost is annoying for irons at least
but that's less the cost and more like
the annoyance of physically acquiring that many runes
It is what it is, if you own shadow your obligated to grind to sustain it.
446 Right now, probably can sell for 449 manaless
well yeah, never said otherwise
Unlike owning a tbow an having no way to get d arrows or before improved methods to obtain blood runes
but it is also, iirc, the single most expensive weapon to use in the game
That's based off yesterday trade price
Sang is more atleast for an iron
I just use this https://prices.runescape.wiki/osrs/item/566
ah yeah
true
since it's 4t
sang staff is kinda troll in general though
and will become incredibly dead content in just a couple of days
Sang healing is still nice
Yea
and you don't need a group to get an eye
About the avernic treads, I am curious if there are going to be any reqs to add cerb boots to them
I remember the initial blog post, before the avernic treads were usable on their own, mentioned 80 smithing to make them

No more Tasakaal Trials
I doubt we're getting another 2-3% mdmg boost via mage infernal cape anytime soon
im not saying 99 smithing needed for avernics is a good idea, but smithing in is such a bad state that having like 80lvl req is a joke when you need 90+ to craft some of rune items
In hindsight, it should've locked away a lot of drops and you needing the levels to make it tradeable would've been good 
like Araxyte Fang
yeah, i actually had to lvl up my crafting to craft rancour
Ahead of Varlamore’s release
Player numbers are booming in Gielinor - and we’ve expanded our live infrastructure to match!
🎉 New worlds added to ease traffic:
🌎 4x US East - 402, 403, 404, 473
🌎 3x US West - 541, 542, 543
🌎 2x UK – 562, 563
Thanks for being part of this
No 99 smithing absolutely should.
they are cowards for not adding high skill reqs to high end items
90 smithing, 90 Runecraft to make avernics

Huggggge +1
With a few updates coming to slayer I'm looking to see about a poll on a idea I've had for a while. 99 Slayer Cape is barely useful just a flex where other capes are truly useful. My thoughts are for 99 slayer cape = Slayer Helm (i). Reasoning #1 not all of us have infernal capes or quivers, so for max mains it could open helm slot for torva masori (f) ancestral etc and #2 - 1 defense pures with 99 slayer cape can finally have the slayer 15% bonus damage not requiring them to get defense for slayer helm (i). Thoughts anyone? I think it would benefit the whole community not just us max mains.
I think Araxyte Fang were a good middleground where you can't cash in until you get the levels 
gate avernics to 90 sailing
I don't think it can be the same 15% if slayer bonuses were in another slot. Won't the meta just become void+slayer cape for something like 27% boost?
you are literally going to lose people with just pures
FTR
No it's just like you can use salve and slayer helm
Cant*
Not anyway stackable just like they have with salve or slayer helm. Sometimes salve is the better choice.
theres a sentiment in general skill cape perks are dated and a product of the past but like it's probably something so low on their radar
agility and firemaking cape 
They should buff some capes
I believe Jagex has said in the past that they don't plan to add more perks to skill capes
Skillcapes shouldn't have perks 😎
i could see like increased weights for your fav task with slayer cape added, but making it a bis cape slot or w/e is too far
Thieving cape perk is like really good though right
would rather see them rework some of the objectively garbage capes
Why not? So crafting cape shouldn't have quick tele or def cape acts like ring of life etc
People know damn well why they want it off helm slot and onto stuff like blessing slots instead, which is set bonus for gear setups + restricted builds.
Not only blessing slots zero damage lost, especially if you have Quiver, but you now get back the helm's stats 
People play hard and alot of hrs for them. Why not make them useful?
there are worse capes, i havent used attack cape once and used slayer one almost daily
because worse capes like firemaking, and agility, and fletching exist
one free grapple 
Yea main thing is it would be a game changer for 1 def pures and it could benefit those of us with max mains as well. I don't hate someone cause they choose to be 1 def, but why punish them to not allow the slayer bonus dps?
game changer for 1 def pures this statement here alone is going to be a no from people
Nah, I bet most people don't even pay attention to that if there's no explicit mention (ie: Antler Guard).
I think part of it is moving it to another slot so they can wear a full armor set. But it's also another powercreep for slayer damage.
I don't even have a 1 def pure just a max main, but why hate on 1 def pures?
lot of people dont like restricted accounts (besides ironmen) getting catered to
imo, people think 1 def pures = pk = hate
