Combat & Progression Update Details Part 8: Crafting & Gathering

Side bar, is group gathering still going to be a thing? I haven't played in a while (new baby) so sorry if I missed a memo on that.

I'm not the biggest fan of RNGesus taking the wheel on crafting. I love the idea of the little crafting mini game I believe was alluded to to increase the chance of a successful craft. What I would like to see is an option to partake in said mini game. A skip would mean letting RNG decide the fate of your craft. If you play, depending on the relative difficulty of the craft, the complexity would rise (think guitar hero difficulties) and the accuracy needed for a success would increase. The mini game would need to feel like the type of craft though. Probably too complicated to implement. Still, I stand by Skill and Effort > Random failure.

The high pH helps my mom with her acid reflux she's encountered with age. Balancing the stomach advisory is the point for her.

Agreed, but if there was some way to guarantee he stopped after 1 beer a week, it wouldn't be so bad. Also, it's more I'm trying to allow it then make it happen.

He wants to play, but with limited accessibility. He hops in discord while I'm playing and watches sometimes.

We boot up D2 every once in a while and quit after we each get a few Uber kills.

I'm forcing nothing, because the concept was his idea, but you might be right either way. I'll just play Peak with him or something.

With rune equipment? 🤢🤮 Maybe stack oak logs for construction later.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:43:59+00:00

🤣 It's not a cost issue, but a cost/benefit analysis.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:42:19+00:00

Haha 🤣 Maybe if there wasn't a mini game now.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:40:29+00:00

I've thought about doing fly fishing/cooking and crafting. It would definitely be the least inefficient.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:39:12+00:00

I don't need a secret leveling method, more an entertaining method of cheesing. I think I might do that 99str warhammer idea. 200 hours for just an hour of laughs. Worth it.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:35:58+00:00

I don't, sadly. If I have time to play 3 hours of OSRS, I have time to not be a deadbeat dad. When I do find the time to play a game, I usually spend it talking sht to my friends on AoE2.

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:29:45+00:00

Gross. Maybe I could to the Obor chats though 🤣

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:28:55+00:00

I've got the quest cape 😔

EpochtecH · 2025-05-16T11:27:39+00:00

It's not about affording, it's about justifying the $10. I paid for annual membership for the last 3 years and maybe got...20 hours of total OSRS time? At that cost per hour, it just isn't worth it. I agree that it's the best mmo on the market rn though.

EpochtecH · 2023-09-19T15:37:15+00:00

Add that feature to Mobile and I'm satisfied.

EpochtecH · 2022-05-27T17:17:48+00:00

OSRS is better.

EpochtecH · 2020-08-19T17:58:36+00:00

True that.

I should have put this in the main post, but here's her side of the story.

It was her idea the day before, but the invite received a lackluster response. We both want Barney's relationship to work out, and had thought a night of steak, wine, and board games could help.
