adding gameplay to pets is bad

#

other than that yeah why not

lyric coral
#

Idk man makes perfect sense that you would have control over your pet after you get it

#

i think this is a perfect way to implement without being gamebreaking

olive bone
#

+1 Max hit is gamebreaking

#

pets are supposed to be cosmetics and should stay that way

#

cosmetic overrides are fine but shouldnt have stats

lyric coral
#

people are already asking for thralls to do guaranteed damage instead of 0-3

#

that kinda works like a max hit

olive bone
#

thralls are already extremely good bc they always hit

#

its free dps

#

so buffing it would be pretty op and very stupid if locked behind a 1/5000 drop

lyric coral
#

they dont always hit they can hit zero they also require you to drain 6 prayer each time and have to bring book of dead and if you want death charge aswell thats already 3 invo spots not excactly free dps

#

also thats why you should be able to rent them so for accounts that dont have pets

pulsar perch
#

they dont always hit they can hit zero
someone doesnt know the difference between a successful hit and a 0

@pulsar perch I thought he meant they always do damage relax.

olive bone
#

Its free dps in any setup where you dont need other spells, which is most of them, and inventory space is usually not so highly constrained that book of the dead is an issue, especially considering its something like 0.6 dps in a game where most people will usually be doing between 5 and 10 dps most of the time.

#

in any case if it was desirable to buff thralls it would still not be a good idea for it to come from pets 🤷

pulsar perch
#

the key significance of thralls is that they guarantee hits though

#

so to me it sounded like you dont even know what thralls do

lyric coral
#

look i still havent seen you debunk 1 thing ive said so im not convinced its a bad idea, also people asking for book of dead to not take a invo space and also want thralls to hit guaranteed between 1-3

olive bone
#

please give feedback even if negative

dusty jacinth
#

I'm fine if it's completely cosmetic. Having a a +1 max hit and a dps boost based purely on if you get a pet or not is absurd

rose valley
#

No, cosmetics and gameplay shouldnt mix

lyric coral
#

yes levi but the balance would be able renting to the taxidermist guy

dusty jacinth
#

that's a bad idea tbh

lyric coral
#

none of you guys are giving reasons though

dusty jacinth
#

if they made the RL plugin where your pets are your thralls, but actually implemented into the main game, that's a huge W

#

you're saying pets get a max hit, but you have to "corrupt" them, and they die after 1000 hits

lyric coral
#

@dusty jacinth thats are cool idea

dusty jacinth
#

I shouldn't have to give a reason as to why thats bad

lyric coral
#

no im saying you can rent corrupt pets for those accounts that dont have pets already

dusty jacinth
#

okay even worse

#

yikes

#

no thats a bad idea

lyric coral
#

i would also charge a lot of money

#

whats the main problem you have with the idea? is it the max hit or mixing cosmetics, because i really dont see 1 max hit being game breaking and also dont see how getting 1/3000 drop should only be cosmetic

#

im also only suggesting only pvm pets get max hits not skilling

granite ermine
#

i like this idea

#

i recently just hit the leviathan pet at 2k kc and its just collecting dust in my bank...

lyric coral
#

same xd

#

do all 3 of us have levi pet XD?

pulsar perch
#

not even just -1

lyric coral
#

yea but why should people be annoyed other peoples thralls have 1+ max hit cause they have a pet

#

if they dont have 1

pulsar perch
#

pets are intended to be cosmetic lol

lyric coral
#

thats not a reason.. the game has evolved so much and we used to have rules in place similar to "pets are cosmetics" but then broke them for quality of life for the game

pulsar perch
#

like what

last scaffold
#

?

lyric coral
#

no im saying we've had old school stuff changed to keep up with modern updates

last scaffold
#

I reread but still don’t follow

lyric coral
#

so even though pets were intended as cosmetics doesnt mean they cant change that

pulsar perch
#

name a rule (or whatever) that currently exists which acts as quality of life

#

which used to be purely cosmetic

lyric coral
#

i wasnt referring to cosmetics

pulsar perch
#

so what is the relation

lyric coral
#

im saying osrs have updated 20 year old classic things in the game to keep up, they dont do it often but its been done

pulsar perch
#

yes, but those aren't cosmetics being turned into qol

last scaffold
#

Pets and cosmetics should remain cosmetics for sure

pulsar perch
#

this is a cosmetic that firstly, isn't being "turned into qol"

lyric coral
#

whats the difference?

pulsar perch
#

it would be a massive change

#

the difference is that pets are cosmetic

#

and your changes you're talking about

last scaffold
#

Also yeah a 33% buff to already insanely good dps isn’t “qol”

pulsar perch
#

affect non-cosmetics

#

i.e. they have tangible impact on the game

last scaffold
#

But even qol I would disagree with

#

Pets are the one thing in this game that is explicitly a “flex item”

#

And that’s good

pulsar perch
#

it's like a visible trophy to other people that you've taken the time to grind out a boss solely for a purely cosmetic look

#

not for a boost to dps

#

not to mention people would just farm the easiest bosses for this dps increase lol

#

scurrius or mole for melee for example

lyric coral
#

ive considered this i would restrict its to certain pets

pulsar perch
#

with pets being cosmetic, they are purely a visual flex

lyric coral
#

no slayer or skilling pets and low level

pulsar perch
#

like what

#

ah ok

#

so basically

#

verzik pet, sol heredit pet, and olmlet

#

nibbler too

#

maybe even penance queen

lyric coral
#

definetly those but all godwars pets i would include, maybe zulrah all dt bosses i would include, kbd kalphite and nightmare

pulsar perch
#

you said nno low level pets

#

why are we including gwd and kbd and kq

#

and zulrah

#

im confused

lyric coral
#

yea there low level but if your talking about rarity of getting these pets its pretty high level

#

getting bandos as a pet a lot harder than a slayer pet

#

even though its considered low lvl boss or whatever

dusty jacinth
#

this post bro kekw

granite ermine
#

@dusty jacinth his got good points tbh

dusty jacinth
#

he really, really doesn't

last scaffold
#

Why don’t we make 3a best in slot?

#

Same reasoning

lyric coral
#

@pulsar perch Look i havent sat down and thought about exactly which pet should be given the max hit buff

last scaffold
#

The problem is that none of them should

lyric coral
#

but im sure thats not to hard to figure out which one deserve it

last scaffold
#

In fact, if you restrict it to specific pets

pulsar perch
#

also by this reasoning, zuk pet is considered easier than gauntlet pet to get

last scaffold
#

It’s even worse tbh

dusty jacinth
#

not only are you randomly giving a 33% buff to something, and calling it "qol", you're stating that this actual and legitimate powercreep is "qol" and the reasons are because pets are hard to obtain, which is true, but completely irrelevant, and because the game is 20 years old and things change all the time

#

i took 6700 kc for my leviathan pet, can I have 2 max hits please?

#

hold the ketchup

last scaffold
#

We don’t need to lock a significant dps increase behind 1/3000-1/5000 drops

pulsar perch
#

also at ehb rate, bandos pet is 86h and ggs pet is 81h

#

thats 81h excl time taken to get the slayer tasks

#

so in reality it's longer than bandos pet

lyric coral
#

dont tell me about this 33% damage buff calculators tell you you get 400% increase damage using thralls at callisto

pulsar perch
#

wat

dusty jacinth
#

its like second grade math dude

#

hahahaha

#

has nothing to do with dps calcs

last scaffold
#

What is that even supposed to mean

lyric coral
#

im saying 1 max hit to thralls will NOT break the game

last scaffold
#

0-3 maxhit is avg 1.5 per attack, 0-4 maxhit is avg 2 per attack, 33% increase

last scaffold
#

Thralls are already insanely powerful and don’t need an arbitrarily locked increase behind 1/3000-1/5000 pets

dusty jacinth
#

it jsut doesnt make sense

last scaffold
#

Thralls are like +8% dps in my toa gear for example as-is

dusty jacinth
#

AGAIN, you had me in the first half. If its cosmetic only, and your pets act as thralls with no gameplay changes, thats a gigantic W

lyric coral
#

crazy how smart you's act but legit havent debunked 1 thing ive said

last scaffold
#

If you think that’s minor, ok

dusty jacinth
#

everything else respectfully is on par with oscord suggestions

lyric coral
#

i promise not 1 thing

dusty jacinth
#

we told you how riduclous it is to say a buff like that is qol

dusty jacinth
#

we told you how ridiculous it is to lock a dps increase for EVERY build in the game behind a 1/3000-1/5000 cosmetic drop

lyric coral
#

@dusty jacinth i wanna ask about your idea about a thrall following you around as a pet?

last scaffold
#

What exactly do you mean by debunked

dusty jacinth
#

thralls are thralls

#

you want thralls to be made into pets?

lyric coral
#

do you mean like it permantlety follows you around?

dusty jacinth
#

either that, or when you actually use summon thrall, the pet you already have out acts as a thrall

steady niche
dusty jacinth
steady niche
#

ye agreed

dusty jacinth
#

no levi pet can be used : (

#

thats what I thought this post was about

#

and then it turned into an avg reddit suggestion

lyric coral
#

yea at the very least be able to use pets at thralls i still think giving certain pets a max hit would be the play but would still be hype if i could bring levi to raids

dusty jacinth
#

0 max hits because it's literally just a model swap

#

a model swap doesnt need a max hit change

#

its a model swap

lyric coral
#

its not though

#

its a fkn lvl 1000 monster

dusty jacinth
#

it 1000000% would be swapping models

#

swapping thrall model with your pet

pulsar perch
#

we should give scythe of vitur +1 max hit when you use a sanguine ornament kit on it

granite ermine
#

i don't see the problem adding a plus 1 max hit to thralls

dusty jacinth
#

its

#

all

#

cosmetic

#

my pets dont have levels

#

they are walking items

last scaffold
#

It’s not though, it’s a level 76 spell

#

Not a level 1000 monster

dusty jacinth
#

im really not sure what he doesnt understand

#

i dont even understand what i dont understand anymore

lyric coral
#

how come people dont have a problem with thralls being changed to guranteed hits. @last scaffold can u calculate dps increase on that?

pulsar perch
#

they aren't being changed to guaranteed hits

#

they have and always have been guaranteed

#

there is no change

dusty jacinth
#

they arent and it wouldnt pass a poll

#

in a million years

lyric coral
#

i hear a lot of upvotes on that

pulsar perch
#

also

dusty jacinth
#

upvotes on a reddit suggestion?

pulsar perch
#

actually you know what

lyric coral
#

ive been watching to much sae bae maybe

pulsar perch
#

i would +1 adding max hits to thralls

#

but only under 1 condition

#

4.6bil skill xp

#

any thoughts

lyric coral
#

i knew u were skiller :0

last scaffold
#

Thralls already are guaranteed hits yeah

granite ermine
#

i like that idea

rose valley
#

you need grandmaster Cas+ 200m all

dusty jacinth
#

or would that be grand grand masters

lyric coral

i agree

#

If you can’t see that your disagreement is with damage calc not thralls

granite ermine
#

how do we contact the jmods?

lyric coral
#

@last scaffold no bro im saying thralls hit between 0-3 and people want it changed to gurantee hit

#

so 1-3

dusty jacinth
#

thralls technically are a guaranteed hit atm

#

instead of a miss or a splash 0, its a hit but 0

lyric coral
#

@dusty jacinth i thought it just ignores defense

dusty jacinth
#

no no no

#

well technically yeah

#

but it will always roll between 0-3 no matter what

lyric coral
#

but yea i get what your saying

last scaffold
#

Ignoring defense is the same thing as always hitting

dusty jacinth
#

it will ALWAYS hit between 0-3, and the 0 is in fact a hit, and not a miss

last scaffold
#

Unless the monster is immune/reduced damage to the style ofc

lyric coral
#

yea but im saying people want it to hit 1-3 everytime

last scaffold
#

Why though

lyric coral
#

and i dont see massive complaints to that

last scaffold
#

That’s just a 33% dps increase for no reason too

#

Expected hit from 1.5 to 2

lyric coral
#

ill be honest people only say it when a boss is 1hp and the thrall hits a 0

#

then they will bring it up xd
