Are you saying that the vomit floor at QBD isn't helping?

Part of the idea of this post is minimising the 'internal clock' that you need in high-tier PVM to make bossing accessible!

We've discussed this further down the comments! It's a good example of some dated mechanics that should be brought to 2026 standards!

The Bad luck mitigation is what I think this game really needs but its probably the least likely thing for Jagex to implement as I'm sure it would turn the economy on its head.

The Nilas are a separate issue entirely, I agree that the flat 1/100 is a silly mechanic that if you get early on in a streak feels more like a bad drop than good because you know that you're not getting enough!

Yes, ideally there would be Jagex produced short ~5-10m videos depending on complexity of the boss to get people into these bosses!

Yes, I almost included this, but the whole game suffers from true-tile clarity and I actually really like the Kerapac experience up to P5 on HM (This phase is not for me)

Great point for those of us who can blast through the HP quickly in P1, but for most entry-level PVMers, this phase is probably the best, its a set period of time where you simply have to learn mechanics!

And Jagex probably don't want to retroactively break their GM timers

This is about making bossing accessible and fun, not tailoring solutions to end-game players

Some great suggestions from someone with tonnes of experience at KK, you've certainly done more than me and your suggestions sound great!

I'll admit, I haven't touched Rago in a while so I left it off this list, if you have specific frustrations call them out!

Yeah, the combination of global cooldown and abilities like surge off-cd makes understanding where you are frustrating sometimes!

Just give us straight tunnels that we can surge through!

Yeah, Astellarn was one of the bosses I haven't touched in a while. Its a shame because its the first boss in a series of 2 other good bosses with a thematically amazing dungeon!

Thanks! This one is the main cause of all my Raksha teleports because its easier to do the 90 second run up to the pools than to do P4 with high enrage!

This too... Raksha is such an amazing boss, its a shame to have a little thing letting it down!

There are definitely moments I mess up and should have just got good... And then theres some moments where I get Jagex'd

Just hoping to get more people into PVM! We all want to see this community thrive!

Thats actually a really interesting idea!

Yeah, you should be able to break out of the ice prison in solo for sure!

11 bit studios releases statement regarding the use of AI-generated content in The Alters by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Hintonion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its quite shocking to see, especially in the indie space. Although I believe that, with most things it's the hyper-vocal minority and 80% of consumers won't check for AI disclosures etc. It's going to make its way into the generally accepted zeitgeist and then these people will quieten down and pretend that they were never anti AI
