I think things like this are the exact thing project zanaris will hopefully be good for

i'm fine with an xp block/lock system if it completely prevents you from performing any action that would gain you xp in the skill you locked

livid atlas
#

u guys are against it cuz you have no need for this

#

now this is a soyogoyo style post, hell yeah

sorry pal, it'll never happen

light sail

but blocking xp isnt a big need

People will sadly shit on this for absolutely no reason. They’d rather not see it in the game than let you enjoy the game just a little bit more

Thank God this will never be put in the game

the gatekeeping is just weird

craggy root
#

It's not gatekeeping. Wasting time and resources on snowflake accounts is silly

pseudo oxide
#

updating the game beyond the main progression system to give people alternate ways to play has been a big part of rs since its inception

Shit, might as well give us ruinous prayers and 2t weapons while they're at it 💀 since they're in Leagues already

pseudo oxide
#

this wouldn't be nearly as strong as you seem to think it is

#

these accounts already exist, it would just be qol making them, ruinous powers would add sometuing new

#

so

it wouldnt be op in any way
the tech is already there, they would just have to enable it
what else do you have?

craggy root

No I'm just saying that just because it's available in another game mode doesn't mean it's a point for it. Specific, limited account and limited level build have been polled multiple times and have failed every single time. Wasting resources would be making blog posts, putting it into polls again, etc..

#

Asked and answered, will probably not happen. Just looking at this post as an example, 2-14 like to dislike. Not saying that's a proper poll indicator but it says enough I'd say

#

They made whole ass professional dev videos on this before and those ideas got laughed off immediately by the majority of the player base

#

So no, it's not as black and white as "exists already so it would take 0 time and effort to put it in the maingame"

pseudo oxide
#

you can't use your echo chamber as evidence that it's a bad poll question

craggy root
#

What the hell does that even mean 😭😭😭 look at previous polls about limited level builds and then come back lil bro

pseudo oxide
#

it also wouldn't take a blog, just one poll question during quality of life polls >should we enable nigel to have a toggle to halt combat and quest xp

craggy root
#

Alright fuck it, put it to a poll

#

See you then

Needing the permission of others to better enjoy the game is an eternal flaw of OSRS

game was built on polling

Let's try not to derail the thread and keep it on topic.

Everyone is perfectly entitled to their opinions and should be able to express them without getting poked fun at. 🙂

sadly the wildy exists and therefore pure buffs (or even qol that gets them to play more) are de facto pvmer/skiller nerfs, meaning there's logical, self-interested reason for the absolute majority of non-pkers/non-restricted accounts to be opposed

Kill the wildy and this would no longer be true, but that's not gonna happen, so we're gonna be here forever

I will never be okay with lamps for all quest rewards tho, be somewhat creative

At max, obviously, but not so much when leveling

I think the biggest worry when you’re a relatively low level in the wilderness is that someone 20+ levels over you can attack you (for most useful places in the wild). It’s irrelevant that the person attacking you has 1 defense. If anything, you’d almost prefer that

Ok I don't need to block XP anymore, I found out that I can simply buy green vambrace and green chaps on champion guild. I can also enchant jewelry without getting magic xp using the magic guild enchantment chamber. This way I can stack infinite resource for pvp without getting xp.

But I'm not sure about magic guild enchantment chamber, I just asked chat gpt for method to enchant without getting xp. I don't know if it's true that I can enchant infinite amount of amulet without getting any xp.

Can't you use the Fountain of Rune to cast Magic spells without gaining Magic XP?

#

I think MTA gives Magic XP on casts

As for the original suggestion: I don't mind if there was the ability to prevent the player doing certain actions that reward XP in certain skills. I can see how that would be useful for e.g. 1 Def accounts, skillers

But I think you shouldn't be able to do an action without getting the related XP. These kind of actions are skill-related - and the skill XP they reward is part of that.

Xp blocking in combat skills has no place in old-school. I can't think of any issue if it came to skills, but with combat, you'd have pures/limited att/def being able to use controlled weapons or baby puree never growing up, 10hp accounts staying forever 10hp. So yeah, NAH

That's some arbitrary level that you like, not something healthy for the whole game. If you get ur 60locks, why can't anyone else have whatever they want?

Levels lock at 99.
always was, always will be

I didn't say horrible, but it has some equivalency in making all weapons have an attack/str/def/controlled style
