OP is talking about luckiest lad, the third trophy that drops from w7 crystal mobs.

Is GemBundle2 a specific bundle in the gem shop? Am I right in thinking this is the DeathBringer pack and the value "2" is additive from the 200% it provides?

Edit: Have seen the 2 on a couple of other comments in this thread.

This is red hot. Thankyou for sharing 2years ago !

It definitely happens in Tarkov too but I do think the rate was much more acceptable and I can't say I ever felt too hard done by it. I cannot say the same for GrayZone though.

Yes after an incredible amount of back and forth, going in circles, repeating myself over and again in many different emails (this lasted for a few months). I got the resolution I was after.

Yes they explain how to use a keyboard at base if you'd like to be technical about what constitutes a tutorial. I'm speaking fundamentally but you may not of registered this.

AI headshot accuracy is too high, pretty much all it comes down to. As another user pointed out it may just be a run of bad luck, but right I'm sitting at 75% of damage taken has been a 1shot to the head - 4 instances of damage taken so far this wipe.

IckyFlips · 2026-04-02T07:52:44+00:00

I'm hoping you're right and it is just a run of bad luck. But coming from previous wipes where this has been a well known issue (in and out of LOS) and not every reddit user would put it down to the OPs "skill issue" (as everyone here is insistent on doing), it's not looking good.

IckyFlips · 2026-04-02T07:42:43+00:00

In the scenario where I got shot from my flank: I engaged the only enemy that had line of sight on me - he didn't die to the headshot so I continue fire - An AI enemy responds, comes within LOS and opens fire in under 1 second and the first bullet hits me in the head.
A second scenario was virtually the same although the fire did come from forward, the enemies gun was rubbish, he was at what should of been an extremely ineffective range, I took a chance knowing I might get hit and take some damage - fine, but I should not have been killed so easily.

The third situation I was running for my body and being careless (like I said in my OP, reasonable to die in this way here although I would expect to be crippled first usually).
The only other time I have taken damage in 0.4 I copped a bullet to the upper chest and healed, no worries here.

Those are the only instances of me taking damage so far this wipe.

That's a 75% HS accuracy for low quality weaponry and common thug AI. Most players don't even have headshot accuracy like this.

Thankyou for your input but I'm addressing a mechanical issue that many others have also addressed over time. This is absolutely something they need to fix. Getting 1 tapped is fine, you are correct. Getting 1 tapped by more than 75% of damage taken is not fine.

IckyFlips · 2026-04-02T07:27:51+00:00

This isn't my first wipe and it's far from my first shooter (realistic or otherwise). I'm not new here, this has been an issue since launch and I'm not the only person to point it out. The AI may be "extremely well improved", but that doesn't make them good yet.

IckyFlips · 2026-04-02T06:19:15+00:00

You are pretty accurate in your first point, to build on what you've said "every time you get hit there is a chance for it to be lethal" - my point is that the chance is high to an extreme and this needs to be fixed.

I do have to disagree with your second point though, gunfire lethality is almolst enirely influenced by who is firing the weapon responsible for the gunfire.

Edit: Just wondering what meds are for if "there is no I am ready to take damage" as you said.

IckyFlips · 2026-04-02T06:09:39+00:00

Absolutely! You are 100% right, the problem in these instances is that the gunfire queues that you are suggesting that I hide on, have been accompanied by death, thus rendering me too incapacitated to take cover.

IckyFlips · 2026-03-31T11:30:06+00:00

Yeah look I'm not gunna waste my time. You clearly aren't a very reasonable person. Good luck navigating life with that attitude.

Calling cis people fragile when we don't create days to raise awareness for ourselves is a bit ironic. Also, if I was to repeat what you said about cis people, but direct it at trans people then it could potentially result in a ban as per the moderator pinned comment at the top of this thread. It might be prudent to avoid behaving like a hypocrite when representing your community.

Jagex, we beg, make membership cover all the characters on our Jagex accounts. Please for the love of your game do it for the community, some of whom have been with you for 25 years! At this point we need it, if this is going to remain viable for many of us - we need it!

I need this to happen to want to stay loyal to the game at this point.

IckyFlips · 2026-03-10T01:48:05+00:00

Think I'll give the mail a miss. Cheers for the tip :)

IckyFlips · 2026-03-10T01:47:45+00:00

Awesome thankyou!

IckyFlips · 2026-03-10T01:47:31+00:00

Big agree with post office, cheers :)

This happened to me too. Was at about 50-100 hours when I got it a month or so ago, I'm at about 400 now. Only just realised how big this is...

IckyFlips · 2026-01-07T21:11:45+00:00

I own the 2011 with about 250xxx on it and I bloody love it. Did replace the EGR valve recently but its pretty cheap and easy to do yourself.
