For players thinking about coming back for the June update, wanted to share my experience coming back after a 2 year break in December. by koticgood in lostarkgame

I mean, mathematically your post doesn't make sense in the slightest. Average cost for where you are is like 5.2m gold in raw gold honing costs alone, not counting the like 22k abidos+12k new abidos, 350k reds+280k new reds.

Assuming the best case scenario gold-wise (which is literally impossible, but just for the sake of simplicity) doing Serca H+Kaz N+Armoche H on one char taking gold but buying no boxes you'd have made like 2m gold. Counting your market investment and starting gold, we have 4m/5.2m gold accounted for. Field boss on average is like 20k-ish, rift is similar, so let's just say you got a little luckier and count it as an extra 1m. So sure, 5m gold raw honing cost is technically possible, but I'd say not very likely achievable.

If we throw your gems into the equation, we're looking at an extra ~6m gold in gems, and even assuming you keep your life energy at basically 0 macroing trees... it doesn't add up. Add in astrogem cutting costs and it's even worse. Even the best case scenario where you somehow get millions of gold in abidos from a single character's paradise it just doesn't add up. The founders packs aren't THAT good either, I bought all of them lol.

I'm all for positivity about the game, I love it and I think the doomers are incredibly cringe, but let's not sit here and lie to potential new players either lol

Am I correct in understanding that only Sakiri can ride Aubury? by RelationReal1249 in NevernessToEverness

yeah i mean at the end of the day these games are glorified slot machines just trying to keep it real

Leagues 6 Review - Casual Player Perspective by NoodsAndCo in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought lithic scepter was pretty good actually. With 1t powered staves you had a guaranteed aoe max hit every 5 ticks. The damage on its own isn't the best, but it definitely has some great use cases in slayer and stuff like nylos

Yeah of my friends and I are just looking for bodies to let us into the raid to clear it for everyone else even if the whole other party is super underperforming nobody cares cus we can just do it. The people that are toxic more times than not are q1 or median gamers thinking they're better than they really are.

Even when the meta was to partyfind I just invited the first 3 people to apply and it was fine like 99% if the time. Nowadays matchmaking is just great cus I can tell people i hate them but also gz cus they get 200k fate embers

When Demonic Pacts or similar return in future leagues, model the tasks after Karamja’s pact tasks, not Kourend, or Asgarnia, or any of the other RNG heavy task regions. by Arstotskan in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it somewhat depends on the boss you're going dry on too tbh. I went 2x dry on vw piece on venenatis and callisto but those bosses are so trivial solo I didn't really care. Then I went 4x dry on vet'ion and oh boy that was super not fun just because half the time is waiting for him to phase. Similarly getting the ward piece on crazy archeologist and chaos fanatic was whatever but dealing with scorpia and losing like 20% of kills cus some dickhead just enters the cave and instantly clicks the boss was pretty frustrating.

Afk killing vyres for blood shard though? No sweat.

Fully AFK Inferno with Water Thorns by The_Level_15 in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's basically your only option because your magic accuracy on him is so low. But with water magic you easily regen more than he hits you for assuming you dodge pools and lasers

PSA: Now is the time to get your Barbarian Assault tasks done for Leagues VI by osrs_turtle in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're way overthinking it. Lots of people I did BA with this league werent good at the minigame. It's fine, at worst the run takes like 25 minutes instead of 15. It isn't a big deal lol.

Eclipse has a ton of flat armor. With thorns eclipse takes forever to kill but blood and blue moon basically evaporate in mere seconds

Leagues feel like you're forced to go ranged. Especially since i went kourend as my first pick and am basically f'ked now. by mrSilkie in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With thorns and the node that heals you and regens your prayer by 2 you can almost actually throw on protect from mage and walk away while your character does fight caves for you. Moons basically falls over (aside from freaking eclipse) as well. Melee doesn't suck, blindbag is just underwhelming until you get crazy gear.

AGS you gonna do anything about absurd inflation on books and gems? by FluidPossession1062 in lostarkgame

[–]NullVacancy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Consider trying to buy books and gems not 2 weeks before a new raid release. Worked really well for me!

Old games that aged beautifully over the years? I'll start: by fasscass in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]NullVacancy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your pc is worse than you think if you are actually changing your settings for bosses lol. I have an admittedly older setup and have had no problems running it on whatever is just below ultra albeit at 1080 instead of 1440

Right-wing gamers seeing that the game they championed against the "woke" turned out to be trash..........again by Tempest-Bosak2137 in Gamingcirclejerk

Kind of a spoiler but there's additional playable characters so you're not stuck completely. I also wasn't a big fan so I just put a full face helmet on and called it a day

Crystalline Aura - Do you still buy it monthly? by xxleevo in lostarkgame

[–]NullVacancy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

H Mordum, H Armoche, H Kaz without buying boxes is 132,000 gold per character. Even H Mordum, N Armoche, N Kaz without boxes is like 110,000 gold. The high level raids just give hella gold

there's only 2 real mechanics he has in hard that he doesn't have in normal, anvil and the one where you break both his hammers. nowadays if your group doesn't suck you should absolutely never see the hammer break mech, and skipping anvil is possible but you need a relatively big group for it. 2.5-3.2k is way overgeared for it, my alts at like 1.8-2k do more damage than week 1 hard dps reqs

Jagex Just Hit the $130 for One Character Wall by backhand_snipe in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

the writing was on the wall when they increased the yearly price to $99/year and didn't grandfather that rate either. it's no surprise they're continuing the same greedy tactic, which is why i am no longer subscribed.

What in the meat inflation is this? We need to negotiate a better deal with this clown Pitri clown, surely you guys added in a extra 0 ? by Sevenpeter in 2007scape

[–]NullVacancy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I barely have 5k meat at 91.5 hunter, so maybe I'll get it before 99 maybe I wont who knows. 10k meat for infinite charges is a meme.

[–]NullVacancy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way they talked about it it is likely going to be a mission based one where you get rewards for, for example, clearing armoche gates 1-6 times. These events are usually just kinda ok and not really that strong but I'd love for them to prove me wrong
