What rewards are even left
all of them, just win a game
…All of them
I don't think he read the updated blog
They’re removing most of the items from the shop?
No they're not
Oh
They're not removing any of them
I misread
Check out the post update from today!
New dad brain
That’s reasonable then
The tradeables at least
Oh congrats!
But stuff like rune pouch isn't
So new irons don't need a win for being able to get useful untradeables
Thanks it’s been a lot haha, never had such little sleep in my life
I do appreciate that the blog was actually reformatted to hide the original proposal - past blogs (especially with Delve rewards) got extremely confusing to navigate because earlier info didn’t get updated or tagged as outdated
never met an issue a little <details><summary> couldn't fix
i didnt get to read it but does that mean rune arrows also cannot be gotten as an iron without winning? or just the big tradeable items
Correct yeah
alright gotchu
A lot more options for early GP these days to the point that LMS rune arrows have fallen out of favour a lot early-on, and if you want to stock up down the line then you can strap in for a win or just use excess GP at Ranging Guild etc., we don't think it's likely to be too disruptive
that definitely makes sense. its definitely skippable now adays
thanks for that update and the explanation
Would surge sacks be tradeable if it moved to lms?
they probably should be anyway, though I think a better design angle for blighted stuff in general would be for it to be extremely plentiful from any PvP/Wilderness activity/minigame and just have them exist as untradeable
@winter hearth any reason mole will have a fee for priv, but sarachnis didn’t? Also, will it be similar to sarachnis in that multiple people can be in the private instance together? This would help pet hunters utilizing multiple accounts.
Sarachnis has a 25k fee doesn't it?
Didn’t see it asking. Ill have to double check. Due apologize if it ends up having it lol
I knew I wasn't crazy
My bad 😬. Will the instance be the same as sarachnis?
Why didn’t you guys just remove the parchment entirely and have people just pay perdu with their item in hand?
To lock it the first time
Allow Infernal Tools' 'burn' effect on the Infernal Pickaxe, Infernal Harpoon and Infernal Axe to be toggled off freely.
Little sad we didn't see this option for crystal tools as well. It's silly upon either upgrade path you then require another dragon tool for 'normal' use to avoid eating charges you don't want to use. Good we may at least get this for one of the two still.
Won't botters just turn on the terminator script for 1 game and then continue the low effort point farming as before with this change?
you assume they are the same people
I assume it's not hard to install a script in whatever program they are using yeah
yes but it is a different script, meaning they'd have to go and buy it
and why wouldn't they? I don't see this update decreasing the incentive to bot lms at all
so then you'd need 2 scripts for 1 account, with the latter being (i assume) much more expensive than the cheap one they're using
I have no idea what those scripts cost but I assume it's not per account
Ok so at least the anti cheat team has some plan
ya i see this as a very easy stop gap for those low effort bots that infest lms
Fingers crossed
Ty mods
Yes lol
Scripts are client based not account based
could you guys consider an alternate source for the crystal chally if you remove the weapon seed from LMS? that's currently one of the only reliable methods for getting that item for UIMs to do CAs and tob
even just like an NPC that trades crystal shards for one in priff or something
CG.
You can just buy it with no seed lol
750k gp if no seed is cost
Hopefully its not 1 tick slower then the non instanced version like sarachnis lol
Islwyn Cadarn is the grandson of Glarial and Baxtorian Cadarn through their daughter, Eirlys Cadarn.
Islwyn can be found travelling with Eluned between the magic trees outside Lletya and the quest start point for Roving Elves. After the Song of the Elves quest, Islwyn resides in south-east Prifddinas, near the bank in the Cadarn district.
Upon ...
I said reliable method, not rng. CG will be the only way to get the seed after this.
that's where you turn the seed in to an item bro
Anyone1 else having ping issues since new brazil worlds went live?
jumping all over the place
That’s not what those npcs do https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Crystal_weapon_seed
A crystal weapon seed is an elven crystal that can be turned into crystal weapons. Completing the Gauntlet will yield a chance of gaining these seeds. The crystal weapon seed can be bought from Justine's stuff for the Last Shopper Standing for 12 Last Man Standing points.
This seed can be restored into a crystal bow, a crystal shield, or a cryst...
Lms is the only way to buy them outright
There is 1 npc that charges seeds and 1 that sells the item if you want the seed to say farm it for shards you can then revert the hally to seed and trade it in for an acorn.
I linked the one that sells with no seed
Iifeen charges seeds and turns into weapons going down in price over time. Islwyn who i linked has a flat rate requires no seed
Thought they fixed that
They did but its still 1 tick slower 
Is there updating game??
tue is maintenance , and typically barring some big update the the week after, updates happen on wednesday
can just go farm one from slayer cave, they even drop off task.
Can f2p lms get enabled and only reward the black lms capes added back in?
Get a name colour bro it's trippy seeing white
You're supposed to be purple
Or they’ll just get a rcb and never make a msbi
But for that item just go slay cave
hunter's sunlight crossbow would the way but people dont like hunter 
its decent training and slayer weapon but they also need rune arrows
Don’t get those in bulk until you no longer need them
yeah lms was the way to get rune arrows too 
castle wars does work for slower rune arrows but that is another afk pvp minigame
Better to shop buy addy at that point
Msbi is just gonna be dead content though
Bone cbow into rcb or atlatl
sunlight antler bolts with hunters' sunlight crossbow was already better than msb (i) with rune arrows but did need 74 flecthing and 72 hunter
With respect to the Brazilian game worlds being live in AWS - exciting! Does this mean a potential future shift to AWS for all game worlds from the existing datacenters?
The implication certainly seems to be all future worlds will be AWS. I havent seem mention of migrating exist worlds to AWS though.
they added Brazilian servers but for me it has higher ping than UK worlds xd
and def Brazil is closer to me than UK is
I think the ping will depend on where the player lives. It showed 200+ for me.
Ping is largely irrelevant until the 400s - it’s the stability that comes from local servers 
idk I get 350 in aussy worlds and I cant flick a manticore xD
3096 ping in salvaging world
xD
Seems like you should be more than fine in US East worlds
thats where I normally play
Do you guys think we'll get bankers note this league?
I think my relic choice now will depend on us getting or not bankers note
They've said no Banker's note
Yeah sometimes this morning I believe
sad news for runecrafting xd
tbf as someone that played on uk worlds forever despite being from na even 100 ping isn't that great
the game visibly lags like that and jagex servers are not 100% stable thats just the average
you'll be losing a tick here or there for seemingly no reason on any jagex server thats showing you a ping over 100
tbh it happens on any ping but lol
we're definitely not blessed with solid gaming connections on this game
like this while i've been afk rcing
those aren't happening constantly
but if this wasn't a 40 ping world for me
you'd just be losing random ticks
As someone that's had to play on US worlds since that's where the majority of the playerbase are, I've had to do raids with 200+ ping, 170 if things are going well.
It's manageable, you get used to the timings and eventually stuff like red-x baba, butterfly akkha, running webs at verzik, and running head at olm are doable.
There's absolutely instability and you definitely lose ticks no doubt about it. I wouldn't want to do inferno with this kind of lag that's for sure but I just take hits when they happen and 9 times out of 10 any deaths I get is from my own mistakes not from lag and missing ticks.
i seen oda get some really bad lags but unsure if its the game or his side
i mean you wouldn't get used to those timings
straight up just dies to lag in a pvp fight lol
you'd get used to having game ticks occur with you being able to do nothing about it
you might accept it
cos it doesnt let him eat or attack or whatever
but theres no playing around it lol
Well your image is like, lag spikes not stable ping.
yeah but if a ping takes 800+ ms
and server ticks are 600 ms
what do you think happens on your end
you just miss a game tick
Yeah and that's why I said "There's absolutely instability and you definitely lose ticks no doubt"
multi trillion dollar company using potato servers smh
i mean they have some leeway where a tick might just look really fast on your end if it doesn't actually take 1200ms
like round trip
tbh i feel like even youtube these days got them potato servers smh
but yeah when you combine osrs servers and their usual delay then you start adding in extra latency on servers you probably shouldn't be on and a normal persons reaction time
you can start creating situations where its like they see a 200ms long tick but didnt quite react to it in time
Well yeah but that's why I said you get used to the timing
its unfortunate lol
as long as its stable, you can get used to it, prediction helps a lot in that
thats kinda the problem though because its usually not actually stable
like if each delay was actually 100ms you'd get used to that easy
but jagex servers give you a situation where its usually 100 but sometimes its like 4x that
or more
so you're just kinda hoping it doesn't happen at the wrong time
I can only speak from personal experience but they're stable enough, usually just 1 spike every maybe 4 raids? and maybe 1 in 10 the servers have been so bad we just called it a night.
it kinda varies but im not sure on what exactly
like
server performance in osrs is somehow seasonal lol
like in the ramp up to new content for some reason latency starts climbing and then sometimes they announce they've done something new and its great for awhile
Eh too many factors tbh, Jagex servers is the obvious scapegoat but your own ISP, your own modem, your own connection (wifi or ethernet), your own situation (sibling downloading in the other room) can all affect your ping.
It's a very difficult problem to solve especially with so many variables and users not being tech savvy enough to trouble shoot
like right now a league is about to drop and as usual
instead of my ping to use east being ~20
its 35-40
no gameplay difference but you can see it coming
i wonder if they put up like additional ddos protection or something around big launches
some old game i played had introduced lag spikes by some bad servers ever since like 2018 and been unplayably laggy since 😭
i noticed it straight away but ppl kept gas lighting saying its not the servers lmao
i used to think it was just more people playing ruining servers
took some nerds to post a bunch of data on the forums to prove its shody servers
since that also lines up with big content releases
and also back then you could tell if it was 3am or 3pm just based on how bad the server was
but now its different
scuffed ddos protection sounds familiar as a cause
Mt friend has 4 Monkey tails-5 springs-2 limbs-2 heavy frames and 1 light frame
No Zenytes
close to 1500 kc
xd
guy needs to check if Jagex disabled Zenytes for him hahaha
I'm at 3 tails, 2 springs, 3 limbs, 1 heavy, 1 light in 356kc and 0 zenytes. I know that's insane rng for me, but I'd still love a zenyte 🤣
would you play in a leagues where they add stuff that never passed a poll, like wrathmah or whatever the name, or maybe shamanism? xd
Sounds unfun
Surely in a halberd-forward league like this one, chally doesn’t require two regions right? Please?🙏
sadly it will unless they make special exception that we have not been told yet 
Yeah
It’s a league, let them cook
Yeah that'd be pretty cool. We'd get to test them out, and if people like them they can repoll them after the league. For wrathmaw they'd have to get rid of the thing where its only around at certain times
Thanks so much jagex for the brazilian server ❤️
Thanks for mobile switch between characters this is cool 🙂
i will take shamanism over sailing any day of the week
shame it didnt pass
im glad we didnt get shamanism and i hope we never do
I voted for shamanism but I'm not mad we got sailing it was my second choice over taming
Taming I couldnt see going over well lmao
Since we're talking about failed skills, Warding felt like a rc expansion. I would love to see it repolled in that capacity.
failed skills.... my specialty 
How's life @restive storm been a hot minute
pretty good, been playing a lotta classic wow cuz nothing to do on rs
but hoping some kinda update happens soon hbu
Doing alright, kinda aimless in osrs. Spending some time going after big fish from trawling. Might put some effort into getting champ cape, only one scroll left (skele). Clannies keep telling me to max but Im in no rush
I’m ngl I wanted warding
From what I remember, it was way more fleshed out than sailing
nice nice, yeah im in the same boat. theres nothing really left to do anymore, at one point i was afking abby demons for the head for when parch update comes... but kinda even dont wanna bother doin that anymore
Kind of tied rc in an interesting way
maxing grinds i did enjoy tho
My biggest issue with warding was the whole side that'd aggravate efficiencyscapers. I just wanted more mage armors sorta like swamp and bloodbark
I’m just hunting tempoross atm
think this past dmm is the first time ive ever done tempoross... idk if i can do it maingame after blitzing thru it on there lol
not to mention dont rly like the pet anyway
Also I’m not opposed to a new skill if it comes to it, but I’d like them to approach it differently. I’d also want stuff fully fleshed out and tested before release
Maybe with their announcement of asking for new nda testers, this could happen
i mean sailings got like 4-5 more years ahead of it til it kinda works as other skills do, so id really hope they dont try to rush into another one lol
Sailing would have been so much better if it didn’t take so long to fix some basic issues since release
One thing I will say is that sailing launch was still hype and a lot of folks found it fun
Once you pretty much got high levels, folks looked at ass grinds and a bad combat system which wasn’t ideal
ehh i really dont got a lot good to say about its release, at least they added double spots everywhere to just afk 99 out and be done with it
that was about my only positive, cuz initially they were resisting that change too
I like salvaging even post 99 because I dont think theres a more afk way to bank stuff like good herbs, cannonballs, and repair kits to eventually take to ship combat grinds or even just for okay money
i just liked that i could sit in one spot forever and not have to drive the stupid boat around lol
I dont mind driving the boat, just port tasks weren't lucrative enough to be worth it. Deep Sea trawling though has settled to be an okay moneymaker and the food is great too
Got a 2k stack of bluefins I'm chewing through at bosses and slayer, helps save a dose here and there over anglers or mantas which I'm happy about
driving the boat doing port tasks isnt the worst, I still dont really like it, but driving from salvage wreck to salvage wreck was unacceptable which is where they started it. They refused to make that change in like alpha/beta. And then when everyyybody started whining they finally addressed it
Lmao its nothing I'm not used to with years of wow dev cycles, as I'm sure you're aware of as well
Sucks but its kind of a fact of life
yea i stopped playin retail ages ago, i just play the classics now
faster paced, get less bored
Gold clog staff or too zzz
For leagues 6, does the King's Barrage ice hit count as a magic attack as far as the demonic pacts are concerned? I want to run crossbows and want to know if there is utility in getting the magic pacts that allows water/ice spells to heal me.
Kinda feel like Kandarin and Tirannwn should be one region. Both seem kinda lackluster on their own.
kandarin is about to be in just about everyone's route lol
both shots scale with crossbow damage pacts, 2nd bolt turns damage to ice barrage and can heal from water (ice) spell. No confirmation if it is 1 max damage that is split into 50/50 for bolts or if it is 2 separate max hits (doubling dmg)
Kandarin and tirannwn both became op mage regions with echo item release.
thermy has doubled down with having 2 elemental weakness echo items. Same devils element as before and additional buffed version of twinflame staff that can cast surge spells which will always use enemy weakness regardless what spell you cast
ooh nice
It also has jewelry for various things that you can’t get otherwise and synergy with some relics etc
clogging def not for me, dont see the reason why id bother lol
Okay looking it up the nuclear ballista seems pretty hype
Sailing would be nice if it wasnt a big money sink skill, and they want you to have different boats for different activities adding more and more facilities
Like this new pirate stuff not giving much xp, bounty tasks are boring af system.
i think even with the changes and the addition of new combat facilities, i dont see a need for more than 2 boats (1 skiff and 1 sloop)
you really dont need a trawling sloop and a combat sloop and a salvaging sloop
you can fit combat stuff and trawling or salvaging stuff on the same boat
Barracudas boat, Salvaging boat + combat and/or trawling boatg + combat, now a different boat for pirates because your overcrowd boat
And then god knows what else they will keep adding
you could even have a salvaging sloop at minimal extra cost because most of the upgrades are not necessary when youre just sitting in one place
you absolutely dont need to have an extra boat to fight pirates just to have more space for the pirates to move around on if they board your ship lol
3 boats completely fine
u have yr skiff
you have yr sloop u use while leveling and improving as you go and use for salvaging (nothing dangerous so u can keep at camphor)
and then you have yr rosewood sloop you make later on, u use for combat and trawling
i honestly think jagex trying to push the idea of multiple boats for different stuff is pretty toxic
like they have gotten damn near infinite feedback that stuff like sheets/nails is absurd and their reaction is basically 🗿
lmao so the idea of branching out to needing even more boats is wild
theres gonna have to be some movement from them as far as sheets/nails being more common in the future if they actually expect more than one boat that actually gets upgraded
they dont want you to know this but facility bottles can be used to bottle your facilities on one boat and put it on another boat
that is something you can do
but tbh
i think the stuff should've just been reasonable to farm out to begin with
like if you took the final result of both directions i'd rather be living in the world where we could reasonably create a few good ships
than be in the one where we go collect bottles and then rotate through facility layouts
mostly just because option 1 there is functionally superior once you get around to us maybe teleporting to our boats
and leaving them in different places near where we'd use them
i mean by that same token couldn't you also just have 1 max boat and then have as many rafts with greater teleport focuses at spots where you wanna moor from and then summon your max boat to the sacrificial raft
yeah you could but then you loop back into the problem of basically drop rates being crazy
obviously its not as crazy as making a full boat rn but still
just collecting a few of those bottled storms is already wild
still better than collecting enough for an upward of 5 total currently max boats
or who knows you can go so horrifically dry on bottled storms compared to dragon metal sheets and you get more than one max boat anyway
except u dont needs BIS boats for all 3 activies
also that lmao
i have a rune boat and i'm doing okay for myself
combat's fine, trawling is fine, salvaging was fine
i have a rosewood skiff, a camphor salvaging boat and a rosewood trawling/combat boat
the camphor boat is the one i used while leveling
and even then, it was only like 6k frost dragons to make all that
and tbh the nails and sheets are just brutal
which is more than reasonable
ive been particularly unlucky in that i havent seen a frost dragon task yet
all my dragon nails i've ever got was from opulent salvage and it was only enough for 2 rosewood cargo holds lmfao
ya i turael skip for wyrms and frost dragons when i feel like working on it atm
it would probably be faster to just go blast frost dragons 16 hours a day but
thats pretty boring
i'm trying to get to 93 slayer anyway so i'm taking most tasks regardless
i mean, its not like it req's yr full attention to do
im about to hit the point where i really should just do frost dragons
400-500 ish on task
i was making up excuses before like lets get a gryphon task to get the CAs and now aquanites incase they buff that thing
but once i get that drop i wont have any excuses left lol
yeah i've been taking gryphon tasks too i want the pet lmfao
i feel like if they were paying attention they'll buff the hopper eventually but im not entirely sure they wont just leave it for dead
did they say what the next summer sweep was mainly gonna be about?
lmao can't wait
i assume we're gonna get a blog and a survey probably in game with a bunch of different topics
and then they'll pick the most popular ones i guess
i think they have things in mind
then pray gear progression is on that list lmao
yeah they're gonna present a bunch of options and let us decide which are the most important i just feel like
its probably unwise to do it this way
because they're going to offer a bunch of stuff and i bet theres a good chance that they're all worth working on
so people are just going to get pissed about the ones that dont make it
like for example
imagine they put up a bunch of stuff to fix about the wilderness
lmao
i mean idk what to fix about the wilderness that whole place is hokey
probably the most in need of repair content in the game and its gonna have like a 1% rate of acceptance towards fixing it
the best approach is the one where its less complicated
making these dumb rules that go against the wider games rules, is horrid
i mean that is something i would immediately fix about the wild
other than that, they dont really have to do anything to it
any client features or settings or whatever that are allowed elsewhere
should be allowed in pvp too
if they're really so broken that they cant be allowed
they should be removed from everything
but generally i think everyone knows its a big meme at this point
thats why in dmm everything works like normal for the most part
tbh the one thing i'd want is just taking all the wildy steps from clue scrolls and pushing them somewhere else
i mean thats another thing they need to just let people free from the wild if they actually hate it
i love having to bank everything to kill one zamorak mage, regear to kill an armadylean guard, and then bank everything to kill another zamorakian mage
idk maybe having a whole wilderness clue scroll so you get people to do clues solely in the wilderness so there's more opportunity to pk would be enough to interest people
then i can go do all my other clues in peace
i disagree
u dont have to regear, just gear smartly to begin with
no reason yr running around in torva and claws to kill a zammy mage
i take my clue, the eastfloor spade, a dds, and my barrows gloves i guess to go kill the zammy mage
if i get killed i lose nothing and give not even a spade
i bank 3 capes, my ecto, and rune pouch and grab out my wildy sword
thats all that changes
like worst case if someone does try to kill me i might jumpscare them with the dds it could be funny
hold on wait he might be cooking
if they made wildy only clues the exact same ppl would complain its unfair they have to go into the wildy to do them
possibly the most pointless suggestion ive seen
Update on my buddies heart grind
They don't have to reward any uniques. Maybe just raw bonus GP or supplies for PvP. Maybe think of it as like the Wildly Slayer/Rev Cave style drop table.
so dead content
I can’t switch accounts on mobile someone help
that is a mechanic with the facility, it processes 4 in 1 action but only rolls for squidbeak once
Ah ok so you will always get 4 when you roll it
yeah, same drop rate per action. Just a lot more rare if you only need 1 since need to have 4x squid amount
Gmgm! Do we know if the Bone Crusher, Ash sanctifier and Scroll Book are also in the Wilderness death mechanic blog thingy?
Currently you lose all charges i think
bone crusher and ash sanctifier should be safe in deep wildy after change comes live, would need clarification on master scroll book since it has tradable version
why the fuck are they trying to bring armor to Entrana
oh and everything auto configged now. god forbid I think or lose 19 seconds at a bank
Wat
literacy is the polling system's biggest enemy
?
its not entrana mate
its the law alter
2 different locations
or i guess u can say, 2 different planes
okay sweet thanks my b on the island
however, at large, I feel that QoL updates are intended to make things easier, generally speaking. But there's an important distinction between improving QoL & fundamentally easing the design or intent of a given activity. To me, the "QoL" updates appear to treat simple & manageable constraints (with a few exceptions) as flaws. I don't see the inconveniences in this game as a flaw. Inconvenience is a key part of the fun
i mean this specific example, the law alter not being allowed to bring weapons to it, is a flaw, as the monks have no control over that plane
as you can bring weapons to all the other rc alters
stuff like making the gloves work on golems, makes sense. Fundamentally reworking trap behavior, stackable net traps, giant gem bags, not a fan of those
fair enough
could also say that reworking trap behavior brings them inline with how the other traps work
so that now u have consistence in the hunter skill and how traps work
I don't feel like that would be valuable in the larger context of the game. All things will be imperfect, but Jagex kind of presides over which of those imperfections are features & bugs. Over time, those kinds of decisions from Jagex help me build a context for where I should think creatively around a constraint vs. when something is a problem. Obviously they're never going to be perfect but when Jagex proposes to change the context of feature/bug on fundamental game interactions like this, I personally feel like it incentivizes people to complain at all constraints & erodes the 'old school' component
at the end of the day, is an easier hunter trap a problem? no - realistically a matter of taste. I just disagree with framing this & other things proposed as inconveniences to be fixed
still waiting for them to "fix" 0 damage, menu stalling at lizardman shamans and 0 lose 1 tick prayer flicking
lol no idea what that is
first - where u can set up 2 alts at the lizardman shaman encampment and as long as you dont move, can attack them without taking any damage as yr 2 alts have locked them in place with a menu stall
2nd - just the 0 lose of prayer points while u turn yr prayers on and off in the same tick, which lets be real limits them on what they can offer in the way of new things with prayer
yeah like why are the traps more of a problem than menu stalling. that should be fixed in my opinion
yr the first that ive seen dislike them fixing hunter traps
I personally think reworking & adding prayer outside of it's fundamental 'osrs' setup would be a dealbreaker for me
I'm very fond of the old quirky parts of this game
But I'll look to expand my horizons regarding what could be. Thank you mr ace
good day
1 tick flicking is largely irrelevant
They just don't want to add new prayers because it adds player power that isn't tied to gear
It's, at this point, almost impossible for them to get rid of prayer flicking due to combat achievements that have no prayer lose mentioned. While it was not initially intended for that to be a mechanic, they just adopted it and pretty much told the player base to "get gud". I'm not a fan of it either but I'm just a casual so they don't care
There are also a bunch of ways to deter flicking, like how curses had to ramp up to full strength or prayer penetration
It clearly is not a problem
It’s a non issue in most cases and no time for a drink can be cheesed with 0 flick too

In my game I just straight up have an activation cost for flicking your prayer on. I think it's something like 1-0.5%? Enough to make infinite prayer not a thing
Detering flicks through damage ramp up is cool tho
ntfad is fucking annoying tbh
i really wish it wasnt a ca
other way i thought was you just make prayer only drain when you hit/get hit instead of every second
could be a good idea to change the mechanics more if they ever wanna try do overheads 2.0 again
keep og prayers the same tho prob
you're also another thing
Im safespot tech is dumb broken imo
it’s okay with it
wym giant gem bag? It doesn’t increase the capacity for the gems that already go in the bag, just lets you store additional types of gems
As for the other points of discussion, I personally super love pretty much everything that has to do with how movement and npc parking is used -and abused- in this game, especially with stuff like Red-x stalling. I do think that if Lizardmen in particular were considered to be a concern, then one simple
change could be increasing their aggro/target range to 10 tiles so that they can’t be attacked undetected. That alone would allow them to preserve their arena, movement, and spawns without making a method that disproportionately rewards alting even on an ironman. An alternative solution could also be to make the Lizardman Canyon have an “ironman instance” similar to GWD that would both remove crashing and remove alting
What about making the Lizardman Caves (Not talking the temple in the Swamp) laid out better so you can at least hug the walls. Rooms are slightly too large for that if using a BP
As in make them slightly smaller?
What is this safespot tech that breaks that CA? I’ve tried it a couple times and I don’t think Jad will be a problem but I always lose it somewhere in the mager rounds
I think the cheese tech is just using a regen pot while having high enough prayer bonus
Huh I thought I had tried that, your prayer does still tick down. High prayer bonus does give you more room for error but doesn’t break it
Unless I did something wrong
My understanding was that regen pot can restore partial-prayer-point drain, so it works if you continually keep the bonus up and it ticks before your prayer would drain one point but I haven’t ever made or used one myself
Yes.
I have no thoughts about that because I didn't ever kill them in singles really
This is a guide for the Grandmaster Combat Achievement "No Time For A Drink". Before trying this myself, I could not find any guides on YouTube and decided I would try to make one. It's not perfect, but I think it will help some people.
Would recommend watching some of the waves in the unedited video below to help understand anything further. I...
This was a cool watch, thanks for sharing
im going to assume youre talking about the badge next to my name in this server? i play a "main" 95% of the time and i have a hcim for the luls when im bored on the main. sorry to burst your joy but any and all of my thoughts/opinions are derived from a main account perspective. thanks for your input though
you claimed it can be cheesed with 0 flick but provided clippers video from youtube, in which he flicks???
wouldn't it be better then to remove the hcim helm from your name so as to not confuse people about which perspective you have when you talk about things?
it has 0 relevance to this situation
I have the sailing icon and I despise the skill. I just like the seagull 😆
i mean you could definitely never turn on a prayer and just hide to regen hp whenever you get hit
you should be able to calculate the viability of that on your own though
Yes, he flicks, you don’t have to
It’s the same concept with that specific rotation
Mix of armadyl brews, regular brews, and menaphites + safespotting
APZ can also 1000% be cheesed 
just takes 6x as long
I would never judge you on the color of your helmet, only the content of your character
then why even mention your original response? youve providing nothing of value
you dont have to interact with the interface, the key works when it's on the ring
just like in real life! 
crazy concept
Yeah I've never had to use the interface the on the rare chance I need it for clues
i think the only situation where you would ever need to interact with the interface is if you put your enchanted key from making history onto the key ring, and then later you want to do the miniquest and need to take the key off
Anyone else getting booted to the login screen on mobile when hopping worlds? My first account is non members and it seems like it wants to hop to that character instead of the one I'm on that has members. Its really annoying.

Left click bone bury (ground option) coming?
its kinda sad that the clue tasks were surprise not nerfed lol
last league I hated Kandarin (everyone hated it for all reasons but didnt know clues were bugged) pretty much every step on elites and master were watson
and they weren't region locked
and that was with clue relic picked
i honestly dont even know why they do clue relics like
lol basically it makes a really bad decision making process with how heavily they usually feature clues as far as points go
where you basically have to pick it
its one of those things that should be a passive
would be like if one of the rows was 16x exp or you can pick your slayer task
Just pick them up and bury them yourself.
I probably wish I knew this last League but I wonder if the Sherlock skip tech for Elites would work
would I ever get this rock golem? im at over 60k amethyst mine, 24m xp
yeah go mine something not lame
like the boulder in volcanic mine
the rock golem can sense these kind of things

either you pick it or you just shafted
the higher tier caskets rerolling down into other caskets in past leagues was nasty
stackables + psuedo-guarantee versus non-stackables + non-guarantee
and locking like 5k points behind exclusively clues, but also synergizing exceptionally well with the general uniques/clog count made it around 10k total in past leagues
idk, leagues gets boring af after 2 or so
if only they would let you transfer points between accounts so you could multi-log lol
They did the nomination thing in the rs3 league that I wish they did for osrs too
its been like 10 minutes?
Thanks @granite scroll
game is up
Alright even after update still unable to take canoe from ferox to wildy, did report again but if you can also report that would be great! Thanks guys
enlightened journey bug, cant press move up by one. Both left and right click hidden. All other buttons work as intended
https://gyazo.com/90d085ed3204690488a6de8bf76d4952
Should change this message to "Please wait for an announcement that worlds are up, and try again."
Was the big announcement on the launcher not enough?
Did you not see what message I was referring to, in response to that person?
I saw it.
If you were playing when the game went down there was an in-game broadcast. If you launched the launcher you would see a large banner telling you game worlds are down. I fail to see why this is an issue
Ok, and why do you see it as an issue to change the wording to something else more relevant?
The person pointed out after waiting 10 minutes and doing what the message suggest AKA waited "a few minutes" and "tried again".
It's much clearer if the message stated "Please wait for an announcement that worlds are up, and try again."
I mean they're in the discord so they get updated, they have updates on the launcher, if they didn't get the information before making a post... changing the wording wasn't going to help
This is hard coded into the login splash screen and is displayed for a ton of reasons. The login doesn't know why service is up but worlds are down, just that they are. This shouldn't change else it'll be wrong half the time
A lot of times a world hiccups and is immediately back online
Sometimes it's displayed because your ISP hiccupped
See, this is a better explanation of why it wouldn't change. Thanks.
cant find the post which had the minigame xp block update
Is there no explanation of leagues 6 rewards?
I'm on the edge of maxing I need to know what im delaying that for lol
rewards were blogged and polled months ago already
I missed this completely somehow
blame it on the maxxing brain
8 hours guys!
Left click bone bury (ground option) coming soon tm?
overpowered
what if u got prayer when u bury bones
+1 prayer human bone
+2 prayer big bone
+4 prayer dragon bone
genius??
somebody was asking for f2p prayer potion 
ah, clearly im blind, dont see anywhere.
buried in #1022203837265756231 somewhere
ah lol
what's the update uptime?
You can see all the planned launch times in the blog 🙂 https://cdn.runescape.com/assets/img/external/oldschool/2026/Newsposts/2026-04-14/launchtimes.png
Is there updating today or not?
Lost 1200k ash sanctifier charges the second I killed 1 abby demon after the update. Added 50k more charges and then instantly lost them again.
100k*
Same thing happening with bone crusher
also my clanmates are getting a hespri seed on like every farming patch
same thing happened to me with sanctifier
ye rip bone crusher charges
Thanks for flagging, we're looking into both issues right now!
added charges and lost them
venator bow
cant go through troll stronghold teleport in poh also, not nexus 1
looks like you lose em once you use the item so i wouldnt use any charged items rn
not happening to my ayak so it's not every chargeable item
good to know
troll stronghold tp on portal nexus not working after update
They're looking into this issue.
We've updated the newspost with the know issues and their status
https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/leagues-vi-demonic-pacts---launches-today?oldschool=1
dunno if it makes any difference but the trollheim tele doesnt work on the standalone portal as well, not just nexus
Don't forget to add venator bow to that losing charges thing. @queen pike said he lost his
yes the team is aware, updated the table to make it more clear 🙏
who could have predicted this, surely an update as big as this would never break anything
now now..
charge issue potentially also impacts scythe
This is just a suss excuse to scrap leagues, I am telling you its whats going to happen ! 🥸
Submitted game bug as well but shift click for last contact for NPC contact no workie. Not sure if runelite or main game
The Troll Stronghold teleport in portal nexus doesnt work after update
is it echoing here
Indeed it seems to be, apologies
passing this onto the team, thank you 👀
not only portal nexus, normal portals also dont work
mine works
11/28 dashing kebbit meats turned into wild kebbit meat when depositing into the bag from the bag
I think transmute is a neat relic, but maybe not in the main game for kebbit meat?
echo venator bow is immune btw
possible that kitted items are safe?
This should now be resolved ✅
is it possible to move the update and maintenance back into the same day, the way it was before? or has that ship sailed?
still not working for me
Or do it on US evenings so the superior part of the world doesn’t notice downtime
it just feels bad being locked out of long form content for 2 days a week arbitrarily, when one of them is just "you should be able to log in right away! just restart your client!"
do we have to restart the game? because I still cannot use the troll stronghold teleport in either portal and portal nexus
Apparently in main game if you don't have a hespori seed in your inventory you get it from every patch. So, people are dropping the seed and collecting dozens of them. Also, if it goes into your seedbox, you just continually get hespori seeds from every patch
didnt get a single hespori seed on a herb run i just did
the whole point of the maintenance being taken out of the update was to make quick uptime after an update. but if we are doing maintenance once a week anyways, its actually worse now because i cant do something like a raid or colo during those times, twice a week
idk just reporting what friends are saying they are experiencing
ive gotten 1 per tree so far on my tree run
maybe if you have one in your bank/seed vault it doesn't do it? These players were UIMs
not working for me either, relogged, restarted client but no luck
ah ye i got hespori seeds on both
shouldn't be the case, letting the team know about this now
it works rn, wasnt working when I typed but checked now and both portal and portal nexus works rn
hespori seed on every check if not in inventory (unless in seed box)
at least for trees
The Bonecrusher necklace seems to be broken post-update. It uses up any and all charges when a bone is activated. I went from 4875 charges to 0 when I confirmed it.
already known and theyre working on it
same for ash sanctifier and venator bow @dense bear
Libation bowl isnt consuming wine ??
"appreciate our patience" yet none of us are patient
this is the osrs community
Maybe if this didn't happen every single leagues people would be more forgiving
Only had 6 chances to do it correctly yahoooo
yahooooo
its funny atp imo
yahoooo
like you are expected to at least have some delay
jagex only got leagues release right once yahoo
they should just do the wow thing and say they need 3 hours and then people would be happy when its sooner
thats a valid strat tbf
basic psychology
Main game is buggy af rn so expect way longer than 15 minutes delay
im not in a rush i got 2 months to play leagues
its almost like we all do
i dont get the fomo on release
could be rank pushers tbf
some aussies who have to go to work tomorrow or smth
Because its fun
sure, but everyone is delayed
Venator, Ash Sanctifier, Ectoplasmator deletes all charges on use
Trollheim tele doesn't work
Hespori Seeds are given like 100x more common than they should be farming
im aussie, idgaf
respect
moment of silence for the kiwis
It's extremely fun with all of your friends being on at once
some people work, and only have a certain amount of time to play on day of release. if it gets pushed back enough, they just cant log in at all until the next day. this doesnt matter in terms of anything other than "i expected to be able to play, and now i cant, and that sucks"
if its only 15 mins, sure. if its 1h+, it starts cutting into play time for people
it sucks, but its life. honestly
It aint gonna be 15 mins my good sir
who is this mysterious "team" you keep mentioning HMM?
i mean yes but does that 1 day really make a difference over the span of 2 months?, like sure i get that i can be frustrating but from a rational point of view it makes no difference
dont try to be rational with my emotions!
1 min reminder
People get excited and some people take time off to be there on the first day when it's the most people with the biggest rush of fun
my bad
its ok
its nice watching people defend shit takes 🙂
So the fact every single league gets delayed is just kinda pathetic at some point lmao
indie game company
"It's life" isn't really a take worthy of considering because that's just saying "don't ever be disappointed by anything"
its live
you really need to reasses your priorities if youre that upset lad
big problem, little problem, no problem
I woke up early this leagues cause i was like "surely with this build up and no update last week it will go smoothly" yea... i regret it
i mean if it happens every time then you can just start tomorrow no biggie right? should be expected atp. at least i kinda planned today knowing the start will be delayed and there will be some random bugs popping up so starting tomorrow seems like a safe bet so no rollbacks or more bugs
that was surprisingly fast
Jagex is splitting the game in two. THIS UPDATS IS EOC! ☹️
me as hell getting spam pinged by yagex about the dumbest of things
my bonecrusher charge is gone because bug?
yea
they will fix it?
Is the charges ping about main game or leagues because with all the spam I can't tell
thats main game
they accidentally snuck some main game news in the leagues news channel
Man, if only there was a separate channel so main game news was clear
god i cant wait for leagues to end already
it is actually incredible that we're missing out on at least two weeks of updates because of a temporary game mode. especially post sub increase, how unbeliveably tonedeaf. also, if you're going to do "poe at home" then at least have the decency of making your addiction feeding experiment free to play.

i just want there to be something to do in the game man 😢
Gotta wait till summer 🥀
he'll just complain about no pking updates when there is
Nov -> june content gap is a lil wild
FIX THE CANOE!! pls report if you guys can. Cant take canoe from ferox to wildy.
hey, if u start mining an empty rock while mining another one, you can mine both - think its a bug (with eh)
also, endless harvest relic is bugged on water running calcified rocks - mining just fails @graceful forum
help the water breaks endless harvest at calcified rocks
help i need this
Shared these with the team, thanks for flagging 🙏
any news on rumours? are they fixed?
Hey! Currently the liberation bowl in varlamore on the main game doesn’t correctly calculate the bone shards used per jug of wine
Rather than taking away 100 bone shard charges, it just takes away 1
So you get essentially unlimited charges for one jug of wine
Looks like the UI isn't displaying correctly on mobile for leagues
could you share a screenshot please to see exactly which UI?
@ancient ember Goading Potions are now broken at Banshees.
They aggro onto you, but they don't attack, which defeats the purpose of it.
Does the potion work on other stuff?
Yes, it works on crawling hands and icefiends no issues
Yeah, where can i send it?
it's just Banshees
dm me pls 🙂
@ancient ember appears the liberation bowl issue is fixed, thank you!
It is! ❤️
@ancient ember not sure if this is the right channel for this or if this has already been flagged to the team:
Looks like there is a bug with endless harvest and harpooning tuna/swordfish. When the fishing spot moves it tries to force lobsters instead
looks like gemstone rocks are bugged with endless harvest
it apears that the 700 worlds are bugged somehow in regard to pms from players on rs3. unkown if this is the case for on more regular osrs worlds to, or if players on the 700 worlds can see the messages from players on rs3 but just not showing up on the rs3 side.
@ancient ember if we are impacted by the charge bug with ash sanctifier can I still charge my sanctifier now that the issue is resolved and I will be refunded back the lost charge at a future time?
is there some weird interaction between the logout timer and your pc going to sleep?
lmao i guess i cant complain but i basically got an hour of afk rather than 30 mins i realized when i was trying to login to continue afking on my phone
is harpoon to cage being worked on for endless harvest
yes harpoon to cage was a bandaid so we are at least moving to the next spot
Dont you guys feel obtaining pacts in certain regions are kinda disbalanced?
i mean, thats part of the decision you make when u go to an area
Anyone know if they are aware that the level boosts aren't working for hunter rumours?
is base stats bugged because of sailing? for tasks?
The endless harvest for Lobster spots when trying to harpoon for tuna/swordfish doesn't let ya endlessly harvest
yeah i think its almost okay but i think some of them are a little excessive
like
kill pnm one time or complete radiant oathplate
should've probably been complete one contract
then just a big point task for the radiant completion
Anyone else having issues with the Echo weapon from Amox? Currently only hitting 1's with it.
Sorry, on Eclipse within Perilous Moons seems to be the only issue I have with it hitting 1's.
has anyone had any issues with teh chop 20 magic logs in varlamore task
eclipse moon has flat armor and if you take damage from it's attack your hit is reduced by flat amount even more
just did it about an hr ago
endless harvest isn't working propperly while fishing. When the fishing spot changes and when i use the harpoon it automatically switches to the lobster pot. This makes me stop fishing if it's not in my inventory.
yes its a known bug
came here to see if it was fixed yet
i guess i got my answer
has wildy been fixed yet
when transmuting ~20 unnoted uncut gems, it says you have no space in your inventory for them, even when you do
also air runes turn into noted pure essence, but air runes aren't noted, they're just stackable
bump on this. been waiting on continuing slayer but don't want to touch my bonecrusher in case that messes up something c:
Because I don't think its been picked up, I believe the Asgarnia task for Porcine of Interest is not possible
no they recently added even more new worlds, without still addressing the too many worlds wildy-issue. I wish they just restrict wilderness to only be available in 50-100 worlds, that'd be so much more fun instead of the "world-hop-scape" it currently is... I have just given up wilderness and am just playing LMS/Emir's Arena now until they do something like this because that much worldhopping to find anyone is so little interactive
Potential minor bug: lighting a torch on the permanent fire next to the bank in the Hunter's Guild does not complete the "Light a torch" task. I had to extinguish it, then light with a tinderbox to get it to complete
Did you really light it the first time if you had to extinguish it first?
guam
left click bone bury option for all bones (ground objects) like brutus
It was unlit, I lit it on the fire, waited to see if the task would complete, extinguished it, grabbed my tinderbox from the bank, then lit it with the tinderbox.
Using the transmutation spells on hops seeds flip-flops between seeds and the actual hops.
While we're adding pristine hides to under utilized bosses why not a Royal Black D Hide from KBD that can be used to expand/upgrade the coal bag. This works due to the heat resistance of DHide and also the black of the coal wont stain the hide
Did it an hour ago and it worked, I believe one location is bugged atm
I've just recently experienced this as well. It I've been transmuting noted gems. If I have 10 empty inventory spots I can do it no problem. If I have less than 10 I get the same error text. This shouldn't be the case since its transmuting noted emeralds to noted rubies.
Anyone else report that certain desert tasks require misthalin?
wildy easy diary - collect 5 spider eggs not autocompleted on leagues. cant access edge (mithlin)
Is clue relic's steps bugged ? Because i'm running easy clues at 3 steps per ...
is there a banker's briefcase for zanaris?
btw is all a lie Lumbridge isnt on fire
@sullen parrot any idea why twisted banshees are seemingly bugged after the leagues update? have been afking them in the catacombs for the last few days and now they do not attack back if you are wearing earmuffs/slayer helmet and just follow you around, never actually attacking. Pls fix i need to afk my dark mystic gloves for clog 🤣
Wrong Ash, but you can submit a bug report in-game O.o
off topic but are you active in the NFCNMW reddit by any chance
@tropic kelp i am not
oh just using the bears sad pepe logo then
Any Wilderness League-ers find a way to complete the Red Spider Egg Diary Task with the Edge Dungeon not accessable?
ive heard you can bring your own and drop them in the wildy, but i haven't been able to log on and verify if that works or not yet
Will give that a shot, ty!
It worked, thanks a bunch!
I kind of wished they made Edgeville considered part of the Wilderness region.
Any update on the bonecrusher/ash sanctifier/venny bow charge refunds? c:
Any update on the impossible tasks like tower of life monsters? And starting elemental workshop 2
ty ^^
I was also going to ask about Bonecrusher charge. Good to know lost charges will be refunded. But why does the news post page no longer mention anything about the bonecrusher? It needlessly obfuscates matters by removing any mention of it when it previously was mentioned.
What's up with the "Complete a Porcine of Interest" task? I've unlocked Asgarnia, but Draynor Village is considered Misthalin, so I can't even start the quest
Ability for F2P players to turn their runite armour/weapon pieces into gilded by paying npc X amount of coins. Yes i know they are avaible from g.e but this could act as an gold sink aswell.
Is there a way to buy the painting of Lumbridge watermill for the Asgarnia task without having cooks assistant and sheep shearer completed or was this just a bit of an oversight as well?
Is there anything I need to do specifically to get larran's keys? I have done several slayer tasks in the wildy and haven't gotten one yet.
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Larran's_key
Just bad rng most likely
Larran's key is a key obtained from killing monsters while on a Slayer task given by Krystilia. It is used to open Larran's small and big chests.
The exact odds of receiving a key scales with the monster's Combat level. For levels 1-80, the probability follows a curve between 1/1972 at level 1 to 1/100 at level 80. For levels 81 or higher, the o...
Specifically I'm trying to get some keys in leagues. I know the mechanics have shifted from the normal games keys.
As far as I can tell from the leagues wiki page, it's no requirements, other than RNG and the usual requirement of being on task.
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Demonic_Pacts_League/Tasks
This page will contain a list of all the tasks in the Demonic Pacts League. Completing tasks during the league allows players to earn league points and unlock relics and areas containing new content and tasks. Tasks span five difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, and Master. Completing a task...
Are you on a Krystilia Task?
Krystilia needs to be the one to assign you the task to get Larran's Keys, just like Konar needs to assign tasks for you to get Brimstone keys, even though the task list is the same across all masters
Yes, I just finally got my first larrans key at revs.
@minor whale @south void thx for the replies!
Glad it worked out for you ❤️
It would be sick if the area teleports that you have to go through multiple menus to get to were added to the home teleport's right-click options like the Yama teleport currently is.
how do you get a krystilia task in this league? do you need npc contact given that misthalin is unavailable or can you just walk a little south of the ditch?
does anyone know if the odd old man has moved location as we cant acess mithalin?
Players wanting to get their hands on an Ectophial can complete the Medium Morytania Diary and use the Morytania legs 2 as a Ghostspeak Amulet to reclaim it from Velorina in Port Phasmatys.
Medium Diary requires you to teleport using the ectophial
Ferox Enclave, I’ve heard
This does not apply for leagues. Any task in the wilderness from any slayer master gives them.
Did anyone ever get back to you on this? Stuck on this as well, with no way of getting the painting.
weird herblore interaction? The Friendly Forager relic says all actions are done instantly, but if you have 1 secondary and an inventory full of unf pots, the game only does 1 at a time. Means you still have to click manually 27 times... I feel scammed picking this relic !
Obviously
It instantly does all queued actions. You can only queue one action per item in your inv
Forager is still busted for herblore
You didn’t get scammed
Wintertodt doesn't seem to give boosted points or pulls in the league, and I can't see the bug aknolwedged on the list of known bugs
Quiver is bugged with crystall blessing. If you have ammo in your secondary slot ranged echoes will not proc
Newspost states that At launch, you'll have around ~150 Leagues worlds to choose from, with some having specific themes to help you find other players for certain activities, like Raids, Forestry, etc.
But all are just labeled Leagues VI
ForestryCC would like a Leagues Forestry please.
Was I tripping or transmutation relic on announced said herbs were part of things you could use the spell on?
Maybe you got mixed up since you can do herb seeds?
Homestar runner!!!!
I don’t think so
Combat so far feels pretty weaksauce this league.
Hope it picks up but it’s very underwhelming so far.
And spending pact points on the small nodes like +1% melee damage or +5 defence boost does not feel good.
Has anyone else had trouble with Conniving Clues not working for the Wizard Cromperty master clue step?
Also, the clue contract tele to the Sorcerer Tower hard step teleports you to a tile where you can't interact with the step and are actually stuck behind the ladder.
I don’t think the relic is supposed to do anything for that step. It’s not an emote step
Does anyone know how to get a ghostspeak amulet in leagues? kinda stuck without it
morty diary
legs work as one
Legs 1 or legs 2? because you can't get the legs 2, you need an ectophial, which you can only get with the amulet unfortunately
didnt they mention something about this
I have no idea, I'm having trouble finding much info about it tbh
might be in the leagues discord or a leagues channel here
Ok i'll have a look, thanks for the help
think it was a channel husky was posting answers to questiosn in
its bugged u cannot do it without the other so its currenty stuck, big oversight
almost 9 hours of aerial fishing, way over 4k drop rate w/ the tier boost. No Gold Tench.
It’s still completely bugged for a subsection of people like myself. You need the ectophial to get mory legs 2. And you need a region with Perdu’s lost item shop to get the ectophial. So for some people it’s fine but for many it’s still not fine.
If you go morytania you have a chance to just be locked out of a lot of tasks basically depending on either your progression or region selection
Anyone only getting 1 frog spawn for the random event and its just messenger frog and not the prince or princess?
Happened for a second time to me now. Also its in leagues if that helps
turn off the entity hider setting that hides random events
😢 I have done this to myself. Thanks for headsup
yeah its a bit jank because its only suppose to hide other people's random events but I suppose that it cant tell for sure who the other frogs "belong" to
it can only tell that the messenger frog is your random event
Hope they fix us being locked out of most mory tasks today by not being able to get ghostspeak
1 free reset is a good start but ideally there should be 1 free daily reset or something so people can experiment freely.
Personally speaking the pact tree is not at all intuitive for me so being locked in to my build feels very uncomfortable
you have 5 resets though thats plenty of room for experimentation
For many sure. For me I think it’s a waste to have this big upgrade tree with a limited number of chances to respec
how much do you realistically want to respec?
Too early to say for sure, but once every few days perhaps
Depends on what regions and pvm stuff I end up doing
i guess it boils down to which raid you wanna do
if any
I think overall osrs is poorly suited to hyper specific class builds
Many people who e.g. specced into range get huge gains in some areas but are basically doing main game dps other places
Cg is especially bad there.
Even respecting within the same style can have a big impact.
well then you pick pacts suited for your areas
there are plenty of pact points to go 2 styles at least
I think my argument still stands
You want to be able to experiment to find a build you like for your regions and content
It’s pretty limited with regions you pick so 5 is more than enough tbf. Allows you to try the “best” of each style + 2 more which isn’t really needed. But I do see your point to some degree
If you’re able to adjust regions as well then sure I’d agree
then mute it
no cuz im coping that they might actually update the real game one day and id like to know about it
yes yess we all understand, if its not pvp, yr not going to be happy
but we dont need to hear it everytime
id just like anything to do on the main game atp im not even asking for specifically pvp update, though id also love those
then find something to do, not jagex's job to keep you occupied
it quite literally is tho lmao
indeed and there are a plethera of things to do, go find something to do
i shouldnt have to make a omega ultimate giga 1 chunk ironman to be able to have content to do
Then mute it
yeah actually true lmao
cuz tbh jagex actually does need to hear about it everytime cuuz its goin on like 6 months of 0 updates
the irony being that he is one of the small group of people that feels we need to hear their opinion on everything pvp / restricted account related
Main game not getting nothin til atleast June man. They know, we know, its not fun, but it was told to everyone outright with the roadmap.
Doesn't mean we can't complain
I love leagues but man it's so depressing that once we inevitably burn out from the 3rd temp gamemode this year we've gotta wait months for actual content
Sorry I guess Gridmaster was November so not this year but the past 6 months
yeah i mean, while its true i just dunno how theyve managed to fumble thee bag so badly lately
like signing off on 2 temp game modes and 0 updates for 6 months is pretty questionable
I guess by june itll be more like 8 months
Yeah its not, not valid as a complaint. I do think looking functionally at the situation; We bitched a lot about this exact thing with price hikes and got crickets. So you might be complaining to the void unfortunately
oh i mean im for sure complaining into the void but i been doing that for literally years, so i'm used to that
misery just loves company ig
Yeah idk whats up ace's ass today 🤷
its everyday tbf he just doesnt like me, but idk why he feels the need to respond to everything i've ever said xD
Be a much different situation if they never said leagues won’t impact maingame content or at least acknowledged that it clearly does impact the timeline of maingame releases
It’d still suck, but at least it’d show ownership
Yeah, more self awareness/ownership boils down a lot of my issues since like mid 2025
Genuinely bizarre complaint imo
Which one
@austere mulch how’s leagues going for you?
@restive storm I’m assuming you’re not playing leagues?
absolutely not
The lack of brand new main game content for the past 2 months. They're planning a raid and a new quest series and just got done adding and rebalancing a skill, I feel like I haven't thirsting for content at all lately. Maybe it's just because I'm an ironman and also play the side game modes but it feels really well paced to me
I wasn’t planning on it but most of my team for content is so might as well
Ah
It’s not a bizarre complaint tbh
Main game should have priority over temp game
And not having content besides a 5 min cow boss is very disappointing
but it only got pushed up because of main game "sailing combat"
Waiting for future content with nothing to do currently is just not good
Yeah the sailing fixes week after week is diabolical
I'd rather they take the time to make the content good than just force new content out all the time, it feels like a lot of the issues people are experienceign is a result of work being back logged off of sailing, which everyone might not be fond of but was a massive main game update
right, in the last 6 months we've had the afk cow boss since sailing and thats basically it lol
plus the upcoming plans make sense as to why it's taking a while, we used to have a lot more silence for a lot longer between updates
That’s the thing though, in terms of good content, it’s not happening on release no matter how much time we give them
we were well aware of content coming after new years
The only decent update that was fine from release in the last 2 years was Royal titans
Also all the QOL stuff is good, at least to me
Qol is just expected per weekly updates
QOL is good but it isnt a reason to play the game
So besides the usual updates and stuff, no new content except a cow “boss”
What would be the ideal solution based on the current situation they found themselves in as of january?
not sure what u mean here, like since sailing combat was so bad its now requiring months and months of work to fix?
liike where should they go from there?
months and months?
yes
I mean like you work at Jagex, it is january, sailing came out and requires more work. What would you recommend they do?
little exessive
It's also new encounters on top of a rework
They have a lot they need to do before sailing combat is in a good place
so was jan since we knew dmm was going to be end of jan/early feb
so that leaves march and april
so far
It doesn't need to just feel good, there needs to be a good reason to do it besides AFKing mobs
and march was the first month of sailing cmb fixes
Pirates are a step in the right direction but the target is off
right but i dont base my enjoyment of the game off of jagex planned work schedule. In real time its been 6 months since sailing release and they still cant figure out how to fix combat
I don't think they should be adding a new trial that's for sure
They should rework jubbly so it's not horrible
Instead of making a new trial
and like i said, go find something enjoyable to do in the meantime
its how this game has survived for 25 years
thats literally what im doing by not playing the game lol
but im just hoping they make changes soon
Well yeah but I'm 90 sailing with no incentive to touch the skill
Some higher level content would be nice instead of Pirates that target mid levels
there shouldnt be 90 sailing content yet
at least upon release and the few months that follow
i mean that might be parta why i think the skills such a flop
u can get 99 but cant actually do anything w/ the skill
enough of a flop u trained it to 99 on 2 accounts
yes cuz i wanted my max cape back and to be done on my pure
that doesnt mean i found it to be good quality content lmao
Skill effectively caps out at like 86 once you unlock grimstone
but you just said you werent playing the game
i havent been playin the game
ive been 99 since the first month of release man lol
i still think it was the best case, let the skill settle, see how people interact with it, get the systems right and then go from there
this approach im fine with, neglecting the rest of the game in order to keep tuning these systems makes the skill seem worse and worse by the day tho
same thing with integrating it into the game as a whole, no need to do it right away
they havent neglected anything
sailing combat changes where march

nor feb, nor jan
feb was dmm
thats not the main game
jan was a wash, and we knew that since runefest
right, but us knowing that, doesnt make it more acceptable lol
Yes but knowing future updates that’s later in the year is sad
That’s great for the future
What about now or in a month
That’s main game
They literally announced a cow boss in a game jam and then implemented it asap
Plus spending months to fix something that’s still just as cooked is ???
because it was basically finished in that game jam and over winter break...
Wow
Looks like they can apply that to other things
Where’s the parchment update? Surely can roll that out during leagues
not everything is as simple as making cow boss
Love the new update for thursday, gives us alot more room to wiggle between builds
But it is simple to spread out content better

but a parch update is hardly even an update as is lol
likee im not gonna start playin the game again cuz they change how parchments work
Like everyone who doesn’t take off on update days always win
Because no matter how much they delay something, it’s fucked on release
Ye
Its not ideal that by the time sailing is finally "good" everyone will have afked away any reason to go back
Functionally the combat changes dont mean too much to anyone besides the small portion of the playerbase that are "cloggers"
"Sailing combat rework" which objectively did nothing to make sailing combat more appealing lmao
Yeah it's less expensive but there's still no reason to do it
I’m a clogger but nothing that has been “fixed” is useful
Exactly
By the time sailing is in a good spot, people who actively play the game will be beyond the fixes they've implemented
like me, ive been done for months, and sailing sucked when i did it, and i have no reasons why id ever go do sailing again lol
Its a larger issue with skilling as a whole. Post 99 xp is almost exclusively combats
so like my entire experience with sailing was that it was awful lol
It wasnt awful imo. It was like a decent idle game with some progression i guess. I wouldnt go so far as to say "good"
I mean I think that our expectations got set so high, that it being an alright idle game, is a giant let down lol
Yes
havent given it a shot yet, but i might at some point
leagues have generally been boring to me for awhile now
Anyone got a guide for leagues that is good to follow along?
Can follow faux’s guide
It’s been a bit more fun for me personally
I generally burn out within a week
But this time it’s not looking like that
The pacing for stuff is better
Does he have a spreadsheet or just video guide
He has both yeah
But a pastebin not a spreadsheet*
Would you happen to have a link to it? I couldn’t find it under his most recent vid
I do not unfortunately but maybe someone in #leagues-general does
Gotcha thank you
Conniving Clues (clue contract) is not working on Hot & Cold Master step, where can I report this? 
And since it's Leagues the runelite plugin isn't working either yet so we gotta do it by running to every location 
on leagues, can i change my warnings anywhere?
Did they give an eta on the gem sack and cannon ball guy?
Knight's Sword is impossible to complete, is this being looked at? I saw the pie task is being coldfixed but they didn't mention the quest being fixed since you have to talk to Reldo in Varrock :/
i dont think that would be a fix, that would just be impossible unless its an autocomplete 🤔
I had a thought for the whole pact points thing. A major focus of this league was stated to be getting people to play out Varlemore, but if you look at the pact points available, you can really only get to 5 or 6 before Karamja. Since most builds requite 8-10 points to actually get started, players are pretty much forced into getting out of Varlemore as fast as possible so they can pick up the few easy pact points in Karamja.
It would help a lot if the pact points were taken off of the echoboss tasks, leaving just the respecs, and moving those 4 points to varlemore tasks.
They did talk about adding more pact points, since your limited to 40 and getting anywhere in your builds needs a lot of investment. stuff like rng tasks (cough farm a voidwaker/malediction ward) with no instanced bosses and insane defenses on the bosses......
I think moving pact points to easier tasks would help a lot tbh
there's a lot of focus on some pretty high lvl pvm or intense grinds which i dont think should be the point of pacts. You should be able to get strong then tackle the challenges rather than being forced to do hard challenges to get strong then have nothing to do cause you already did it.
Stuff like beating collo, infernal cape, full barrows set, feel a bit too extreme imo
collo and infernal pale in comparison to Awakened kills though no?
If you struggle with certain content you're supposed to wait and treat it as aspirational for once you get stronger
also with the acc and dps changes idk if changing pact points to easier taskjs is actually necessary anymore
thats funny, canoe thinks its in the wrong region
The canoe cutscene might be in misthalin
that would be interesting
Another thing that would help a ton is to normalize pact points so that you can get a point from each difficulty tier of tasks in each zone. Certain zones have a much higher difficulty curve for pact points, and there are some tasks that are only made easier by a very limited number of builds.
does konar not sign hydra boss tasks? is it bugged?
Agree.
They made the same design choice with gridmaster where rewards from the hardest content got very limited use. Wish they took on board some feedback from that.
The hardest content should be more point heavy instead of giving you more power.
Also iirc last league we kept all our items in our inventory when we died. Now there’s a gravestone. Why?
I hope I’m not misremembering this.
All masters are the same iirc (assuming leagues)
They all have a mixed list
I feel like they could also give out a pact point every week or 2 to help out, but they did say they wanted to keep the max where it is
They've given one out already and I wouldnt complain if they did it again tbh
They gave a restart last night?
Did they give a free point?
I do like the blog saying they were buffing small nodes
It helps a lot with pure melee or pure ranged builds
They gave out a free pact reset last night
Ye, I was talking about a point
I know they gave a reset, I was saying it would be nice if they gave a point every week or two
but maybe if we started with 5 or something?
Would help people struggling with getting them
i wouldnt want free points every week, feels a bit too easy
Would help people struggling, while not changing much at the top end I don’t think
Most people who are going to be super good already have most the points by now
it would definitely change at the top end since they would be stuck on the hardest tasks which now dont matter after a week cause free point.
The more points you have the less 1 or two points matter
Im thinking top end being like, the last 10 points or something to really flesh out the build
With the other changes I mentioned (start with some points and move points to easier tasks) I don't think free points would be necessary.
I’d have to mess with the grid, but the difference between 40 and 43 can’t be that much
question on the small packs im pure range build. with kings, if i take zero of the 1 percent damage pacts, vs taking 6 of them... aka 6 percent extra dps my flat damage no pray no pots is still 30 30. its great they will add accuracy but what exactly do the 1 percent damage packs do as it dosnt change what i hit.
They increase damage and it's a big deal since even tiny bonuses mean a lot in this game.
