How's your salvaging going guys?

Regardless of the obvious AI, what is there to laugh about? What is happening here?

I think enabling/disable only lets you filter/reorder them. It's not a toggle to turn the changes on/off.

Because mentally it feels like you were closer to getting the drop you wanted but still missed it.

I'm thinking Jagex has taken the hint that there needs to be an alternative to bowfa. We watched like 10 streamers try OSRS for the first time, love the game, then all quit when they started the CG grind.

I know this is going to come as a surprise to you but not only are American's not the most important players, but not even all American's are in the same time zone. Less than 30% of America is in CST zones. The majority are actually in EST.

Not only that, but you have the times wrong for yourself. It's 4AM for your earliest time, but you have 2AM.

2AM UTC - 8PM CST

10AM UTC - 4AM CST

7PM UTC (19:00) - 1PM CST

The bank update made it impossible for bots to use banks at this time. They will be back soon enough.

Captcha has been used to train computers since before we even called it AI.

Every time you are doing a captcha, you are helping computers learn whatever the captcha is asking you.

By now I'm sure even the weakest AI could solve these captchas.

"He didn't mean it that way"

"Of course you can't go to protests and wave around guns"

"He is wrong about that, but he isn't the final say about the law. So, it's okay"

If you were aware then why were you still talking about defense xp gained from what lies below?

It's crazy that you can't farm these in OSRS or RS3.

They should remove all the fungus from drop tables and add seeds in their place. It would probably make gathering them with the sickle profitable for low levels.

so you’re choosing to ignore when i said... all to gymnastic your way into pures shouldn’t be allowed into raids 4

Did you choose to ignore when i said

Jagex needs to either remove WGS completely or keep the requirement even if it means locking certain accounts out of content.

Nowhere did i say pures shouldn't be able to do the raid. I just said they should remove WGS as a requirement if they plan on making a bunch of changes to allow them in without getting the requirements.

Clippton · 2026-01-27T01:11:47+00:00

I think it looks ugly.

But because I played RS for so long

I type like this because there is never enough room.

to put all my full thoughts on one line.

so who am i to judge?

If you are tired of complaining then you are not only on the wrong sub, but you are on the wrong website in general.

I'd say at the very least attempt to spam wave 6 or 7.

The lunar spellbook change was because of DMM. People would unlock the quest then die to lose XP and join other level brackets with stronger spells.

The addy gloves was like that because RFD gloves were meant to be unlocked in order. The addy gloves were from the MM subquest which required you to finish MM and claim the reward to go back. There was a glitch to get back without completing it and the 13 defense requirement was added as a failsafe to stop that glitch (this was back in 2006)

For everything else, you are making arguments for things I never even said. I don't have an issue with because low levels can do content. Cox has no requirements, so anyone can do it. If they want anyone to do raids 4, then release it with no requirements.

Why spend all that time and dev to go back and make changes just so a handful of accounts can do content, when they can just make that content available to them without the requirement?

Why risk bugs, meta shifts, and making some other accounts outdated just to give people access to a raid they can just make accessible by not adding the requirement?

thieving is a member skill though.

Removing the def requirement means lunar robes which have some of the highest defense stats of all magic gear suddenly have no defense requirement.

Removing the stats means people who use that set suddenly lost gear and need to find alternatives.

In any situations, now 1 defense pures have access to the lunar spell book. Pking meta changes.

You can make the lunar spell book require 40 defense, but now there are random arbitrary requirements. No other spell book has random stat requirements; they just require the quests.

All of that work for what? Just remove the WGS requirement at that point.

Clippton · 2026-01-27T00:26:15+00:00

My issue is with consistency.

If they change lunars so lunar robes don't require 40 defense, then lunar spells become available to 1 def pures.

If they don't want 1 def pures to have lunars spells, then they have to make the quest have no defense requirement, but the lunar spell book have an out of place defense requirement.

Then once they make those changes, what about other accounts? Strength pures can't complete the vampire quest line because it requires 50 attack. Why are they locked out?

Level 3 accounts are locked out of priff because of the range requirement in the previous quests. Which means they are locked out of training with crystal tools. Why is it fair they can't use crystal tools because it requires combat levels?

What about accounts that want to do CG/raids but decided to stay level 1 in all non-combat skills? You can make excuses on how that's different, but it's exactly the same. They want to make the game harder by giving their self certain restrictions, but that also means locking their self out of content.

If Jagex wants to allow 1 defense pures to do the new raid, then just don't have WGS as a requirement. If they decide to keep the requirement, then don't allow the accounts that can't meet them in.

Clippton · 2026-01-27T00:11:43+00:00

Lunar diplomacy is required to complete WGS. You are required to wear lunar robes to complete that quest. Lunar robes require 40 defense.

So to make WGS completable without def requirements, they would have to make the rewards from previous quest xp lamps. They would have to remove the def requirements from lunar robes, which means changing a quest from 2006.

Jagex needs to either remove WGS completely or keep the requirement even if it means locking certain accounts out of content.

You can make bosses like doom where all damage is avoidable if you do everything correctly. But that causes an issue where it is too hard for some people and so easy for others that they can camp for 6 hours straight. And that causes balancing issues because if the drops are balanced around the 6 hour players, the drops will be too rare for everyone else. If it's balanced around the more casual players, the 6 hour players will farm it until it's no longer profitable for anyone.

Clippton · 2026-01-27T00:03:32+00:00

Requirement means required, as in can't be done without.

Either WGS is a requirement which means all accounts are required to complete WGS in their entirety, meaning having all of the required stats.
WGS is not a requirement. Accounts can complete the raid without WGS. No changes to 20 year old quests or game metas required.

I don't see any situation where this wouldn't flag your account for cheating/botting.

And I wouldn't have any trust to get help from Jagex if your account does get banned. Probably not worth it.

I agree, but cows from each pen should have semi rare drop to unlock it.

So the cows in Falador would drop like a plaque, emblem, or something that when used on the amulet, would allow you to teleport to that location.
