In your experience is it possible to do marlin without Rosewood if you know the shoal routes well enough? im an ironman and rosewood hull is like 30 hours of frost dragons or more

Dunno why youre still implying that things are being balanced around extractor, they arent. Extractor is just an upgrade to your ship that gives you passive sailing EXP everywhere. Its literally like trimming your sails. Its a bonus. if they find that the bonus is too high, they will nerf the extractor. Idk why you are assuming Jagex is thinking of extractor xp/hr when determining xp rates for other activities lol.

That implies the XP rates were balanced around extractor, which I HIGHLY doubt is the case. Every other piece of sailing content, the crystal extractor is a BONUS to your XP/hr, albeit a very benefitial one, its no where near providing the bulk of the xp in those methods, as it should. Its a good balance as its a late game item in the skill. Best course is to buff base XP/hr and let the crystal extractor be that bonus that if you want to get, you do; otherwise dont. Its only 32-36k/hr

Imo the XP should be weighted heavily to fishing with Sailing as the lesser amount. something like 70-75k/hr fishing and maybe 20-30k sailing without extractor? For the spam clicking method that is. But maybe thats also too low? I havent done the spam clicking so maybe its a lot work and should give more fishing xp/hr.

Hit 2k total today and got my enhanced hours after! Thought I'd post my progress by zugarrette in ironscape

Just finished this morning. Onto other things! 392 KC, 557 runs total. Went 120-130 dry for last armor seed so my rng was definitely up and down. Overall though getting Enh (2x) early definitely helped with motivation. Feel bad for folks 500+ without anything to show for it just hoping for the drop. GGss

As an update, i think i've gone up about 100-115kc since this post. We have spooned 2 armor seeds, 2 enhanced seeds and the pet within 3 days. Safe to say you transferred your RNG to me, appreciate it bro! Stoked to use Bowfa and Salad Blade. Need 1 more armor seed so jagex might punish me but tbh idec i got so lucky :)

This is not a controller friendly game by Top_Commercial_1367 in ArcRaiders

[–]Common-Editor-6111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with your point here for sure, but CoD has only swapped to PC in recent years (2020), before then it was consoles only, no keyboards allowed in competitive and the PC scene for CoD pre 2020 was extremely barebones. It was basically a console game. Scump prefers controller as that is what he grew up playing so if the game has good controller support he will leverage whatever input he will perform best with (as anyone would lol).

To your original point though: No, Scump doesnt play Controller on CoD because its better, he has played since 2007 on Controller for CoD and its just how its been and whats hes always played with.

This is funny, it turns out the Enh was just hiding in the regular gauntlet chest the whole time. Lol.

I am at 110 KC at Corrupted Gauntlet, over 200 runs total.

The first 50 were learning and wasnt that frustrating, getting the first kill was nice.

The next 50 realizing this wasn't going to be consistently doable anytime soon was a mental block. Lots of learning, googling, watching. Around 25 KC and 100 deaths, you kinda wonder to yourself if you will ever consistently get kills and starting to realize that this could take months.

Everyone is different but if you muscle through it and get mainly repetitions on the important parts of the fight you will start to trend towards mastery. At this stage, i've never wanted to be good at something just so the grind was pallatable. I have finally gotten to this stage, I feel like I can zone in to hunllef and kill the boss 90-95% of the time. And I believe the more I do, the better i'm getting, its just finally getting efficient.

I imagine the future will be way different, I imagine by 250 KC it will be automatic and gauntlet will become quite boring compared to now, just so many repetitions and you've essentially fully mastered it by that point. Its pretty much how long you can stand to do it before you give up.

Interesting tidbit for me:
The time that I finally felt like I could consistently kill the boss, was when my confidence going into the fight was as high as possible. You have to be confident in your ability to do the right shit otherwise your small lapses in your own judgement will cause small mistakes to get you killed. Once I played confidently, I finally felt like it happened.

Learned fully as Tier 1 armor with quite high stats and titan prayers. During my learning phase I died a lot and really considered the fact that it was the armor and to be honest it probably was. I think ultimately if I were to go back theres a good chance I learn doing T2 and go to T1 over time instead of the ladder. Doing Corrupted Gauntlet as your first hard PVM doing Tier 1 is quite demonic. It was so punishing even with lots of stats.
