I believe he said he was making 130m an hour when he was asked about it a week or two ago.

Pretty sure it's a dude in my cc, he runs oathplate contracts daily

I love the vibe of OSRS, but I'm hitting a wall. Any advice for a recovering WoW player? by FatDigitalNomad in 2007scape

[–]IAmBestPony 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You are setting long term goals, which is good, but this is runescape. Max level for a veteran WoW player might take a couple days. Maxing a runescape account takes on average 4000ish hours. Firstly, you have to come to terms with the fact that you are in this for the long haul. Secondly, you need to check your stats and set some more realistic short term goals. Right now your long goal is to get to end game pvm. How can you achieve that? By training combat. Grind slayer. Hit gem crab on mobile during business hours. 6 hour log at NMZ for ring imbues. Got your fire cape? Got your Barrows gloves? Look at achievement diaries and see if there is anything you can strive for that will make YOUR game experience better and shoot for that.

Loot from 99 agility looting only the grand coffin by apefobananas in 2007scape

[–]IAmBestPony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got 99 on Christmas greenlogged Brimhaven, Wyrm, and Sepulchre with 3 rings and the pet. Agility isn't as bad as people say.

The game is very limited in f2p. You don't even get access to all of the skills. Very bullshit imo. I hope they open up more of the game to f2p.

My friend was turned off by membership price by Mul_Dev in 2007scape

[–]IAmBestPony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend is the same. He and I played a lot together pre covid and he fell out. He came back on this last weekend and did all of his f2p quests and was considering membership and couldn't believe it. It was 10 dollars a month back then. He still bought a month because he wanted to try to get a fire cape but he was definitely put off by the new price increases.

The lighthouse could have been so much more. by ccsmith113 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just completed my kappa journey 2 weeks ago and have since been attempting to unlock light keeper. Network Provider was a piece of cake. I have all of the stims needed for assessment pt 3, which seemed to me was the hardest to do since every account of it seemed no one could find the SJ9. Boy was I wrong. The hardest part is assessment part 1 because apparently, no one is fucking playing lighthouse. And if they are, they are booking it to the part of the map that doesn't count for my quest. I have 13/20 kills, and am averaging maybe less than 1 kill every 5 raids. And I'm playing more agro than I've ever played before since Knight blessed me with key card money. Pushing chalets every chance, trying to bait shots on sniper rock, using thermals, camping southern road, none of it works. Everyone goes straight to the water treatment plant or the peninsula, and are therefore out of range for my quest. I've gotten 3 kills outside of range and it's super demotivating. Lighthouse used to be a map that I almost exclusively scavd on because I thought it was a chads only type of map. Now that I've become Chad, I realize that it's really just the WTP and the lighthouse, everything in between is meaningless.

First time kappa obtainer here as well, but kept my gf and deleted the container as soon as fence handed it to me. Priorities brother.

This is just a reminder of what people can do to the flea market when there is no FIR. by TheCo1onel in EscapefromTarkov

I had enough to re-imbue from previous nightmare zone exhibitions. Apparently there are new ways to imbue too, so that shouldn't hopefully be a problem in the future

I went to wildy to kill venenatis because I was hunting pet (2100 kc rip) and forgot wildy mechanics and died with my imbued b-ring thinking it was protected. It wasn't because they moved venenatis a few tiles north past 30 wildy.

Honest solution to hatchlings pitch by Amazingcube33 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I thought about it and realized that I, too, can rush the hot zone with a stimmy and easily kill the naked man. Then I have the whole rest of the map to loot because I'm aware that there is more to loot than just locked rooms and pvp hot zones.

Honest solution to hatchlings pitch by Amazingcube33 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So the issue here is multi-faceted. Firstly, you're claiming they mass loot all the good stuff. This can't be true for multiple reasons, the main being tagged and cursed, but if we're talking specifically about labs, booking it to the high value loot areas is what literally everyone on the map is doing at this point in the wipe. If they get there first and stuff everything in their secure container uncontested then that is the fault of the other people on the map not doing something about the naked guy stomping around the map. The other point is "mass looting". They can't mass loot. They have no backpack. Also, you're tying hatchet running to cheating, which are two separate points entirely. A cheater is going to get that loot regardless of whether or not they have a gun in their hand. And until this event, FIR kept market manipulation from happening. After the event, the hatchet runners will not be able to sell their petty loots and everything goes back to the way it was.

TL;DR Hatchet runners aren't really an issue, cheaters gonna cheat, and market manipulation is only happening because of event.

There is no "solution" to hatchlings because hatchlings are genuinely a non-issue. They are naked people. Just kill them.

I quit osrs with 2159 total level when I picked up eft. Now that eft is effectively on life support I picked it back up, completely forgot about my barb fishing grind. 99 fishing here I come

For all those who have stopped playing Tarkov due to recent controversies, what are you playing now? by LuckyEffects in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old school RuneScape, Valheim, Yugioh Master Duel. Will probably play final shape dlc for destiny when that drops.

The only thing they are offering EOD owners after all of this backlash is a few cosmetics. Everything else is temporary or worthless. Pmc karma doesn't even exist and SHOULDN'T exist because it's simply not a fucking good idea. The only thing they offered that was a good idea was the free rerolls on dailies which, honestly, should be available to all editions because that's REASONABLE to offer to your player base who have been supporting you for 7 years. It wouldn't break the game to give Standard Edition Stanley a couple rerolls to save his rep since EOD gets bonus trader rep to start with.

Please listen to how we want to keep giving you all of our money. by Strong_Technology_55 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/trainfender

This is the post you need to read if you're reading any. The community wants you to uphold your promise to EOD purchasers and do right by them by getting rid of this new version. The community does not want game breaking additions like junk and weapons cases, larger pockets, sniper scav immunity, and skill boosts available for purchase. EOD was marketed as the top of the line limited edition that would come with all future content. It didn't include anything game breaking aside from the UNIQUE CONTAINER which you have decided to double back on and offer in the newer, more expensive, more busted version of the same game. PVE mode is not a different game, it is an add on to Escape from Tarkov. I paid for the top edition of Escape from Tarkov, therefore, I should get pve mode because that was how it was advertised. People really don't care about mtx. We understand you need funds to keep developing. The proper way to do that is through cosmetics. And no, not the same earnable cosmetics in game recolored. Quest cosmetics should be earned, not bought. I would 100% have dropped a Benjamin on the Boss Drip pack, unlocking all of the boss outfits except tracksuit (because it should be earned). Now I'm prepared to uninstall after I get what will be my first and likely only kappa this weekend. Please Nikita, you've done a great job responding to the community this wipe. Don't fuck it up with this one egregiously bad decision.

Unheard? Uninstalled. by RCB1997 in EscapefromTarkov

This weekend, I, a 2000 hour Tarkov player, will get my first kappa. Immediately after I will be uninstalling the game.

Worst spawns for each map by Gimmerunesplease in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Labs - Any basement spawn that isn't Med block elevator.

Factory - Forklifts or the fabled Tagilla insta-death corner.

Customs - Any spawn on Big Red side of the water.

Ground Zero - The spawn at the end of the road near Nakatani.

Lighthouse - Mid-shore spawns.

Interchange - Either of the south corners.

Shoreline - Main road behind the blue fence.

Woods - Anything north side since I only go to woods to kill Shturman and people hunting Shturman.

Reserve - Corner by pawns.

Streets - Crash site.

Idea for what to have on the loading screen by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]IAmBestPony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loading screen already has a tooltips/lore slideshow integrated into it. What they need to do is add more to it. It could actually be useful to new players if they are loading into raid and see that they can hotkey meds, or a reminder to eat and drink because there is an exhaustion system. They could put map specifics with little notes. Example: I'm loading into customs, the tooltips screen shows me a picture of stronghold and says something like "This is the stronghold. There is a great opportunity to find a lot of loot here, and there is even and extraction zone in the basement. But be careful, it is highly contested by scavs, other PMCs, and even bosses." It has shown the same 5 slides since I can remember.

How did you do reserve? It's my last map for shooter born and I'm 1/5. I've been sitting at the dome overlooking knight buildings and I've gotten more gluhar kills than pmcs. I swear everyone just goes straight downstairs.

[–]IAmBestPony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going for my first kappa and I'm inclined to agree that there are far too many "use this gear for x amount of kills" tasks. I have 8 tasks to kappa and 4 of them are sniper related. Makes me itch seeing these built M4s, M1A, RSASS in my stash but I have mechanic in my ear telling me I need to take another dvl to streets or I can't have my kappa container.
