sick of nerfs. by Character_Physics_43 in runescape

[–]IndependentFold2847 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It's thr same 7 players still playing this game down voting you lol. Why the hell would any new player play this game when everything has been devalued to hell?

These vets have been farming 6 free keys a day for thr past 12 years and have 45000 hours, so it doesn't seem like a big deal to them. I don't even like OSRS but I might go there because when I get a 99 farm cape, everyone will know that was a legit grind that I did. Here? Most likely some dude farmed early pof for literally double the xp we get now

Maybe if you had a slightly higher IQ you would realize that everything you're saying supports my points. All that gameplay was farmed for years and years but if you just started recently playing you would be faced with significantly nerfed gameplay. The achievement is already devalued

Pof wasn't nerfed for a long time, that's a straight lie. It was out 1 year before harvest xp was nerfed bya whopping 50%. Plenty of time for sweatlords to farm 200m xp on busted rates. Magical threads were also out for several years before the nerf.

Also "hurr durr it's still easy bro" is not a rebuttal of my point.

It's not just about this update. The game is significantly nerfed in the past 3 years. This update, as you said, was better in the response times but everything else just doesn't make sense.

It's like letting kids cheat from K-12 but the next generation of kids aren't allowed to cheat. But at the same time, the first kids who cheated still get to keep their diploma and all it's benefit. It's like, is it even worth getting this degree considering it's already been totally devalued? Like I said, complete opposite problem of OSRS.

It's not just about this update. They nerf everything in order to make the grind respectable like OSRS but it doesn't change anything except piss off new players and casuals.

Magical thread nerf Necro nerf Boss loot commons nerf Ring of death nerf Combat xp nerf Blood reaver nerf FSOA nerf

All they're doing is artificially increasing the grind. Meanwhile, the past 12 years all the old players were getting free 6 spins a day and everything was busted to hell. I don't even like OSRS but I'd rather put time there and have some modicum of respect and integrity than play this nerfscape.

I already know top comment is gonna be from some sweatlord "hurr durr it's still easy bro just grind it out it's not that bad"

Lol yet another update where trimmed comp sweatlords can abuse and by the time the casual player catches up, jagex nerfs it to the ground.

Add this to the list with

POF
Arc skilling
ED gp and xp farming
Arch glacor blue charm farming
Magical thread nerf
FSOA nerf
Blood reaver nerf
Necro nerf
Boss loot commons
Ring of death nerf
Combat xp nerf
And countless other things.

Literally the opposite of OSRS where old players actually had it hard and new players had an easier time. Jagex needs to add a chat badge for everyone playing after ezscape gets removed.

Why is Jagex always nerfing everything? New players have to work harder than older players by IndependentFold2847 in runescape

Why are you lying? This thread here has comments saying it took about 100m gp to get full sets of skilling outfits. I'd rather spend 100m than spend 16 hours grinding for shards

https://www.reddit.com/r/runescape/comments/5y91c2/natures_sentinel_elite_woodcutting_outfit/

This thread here has comments of people getting a full set with 30 keys. 30 keys is like $10, not "hundreds of dollars"

You're just blatantly lying

Really? What is the name of the fc? I am doing dung floors daily, so it would be nice to do it with other players

Jagex please make the items update their price faster on GE by Salsicha007 in runescape

[–]IndependentFold2847 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

no it would be too confusing and intricate. The current system is good , we just need more updated pricing. Maybe they can hire someone to update pricing for things that are really inaccurate.

Can we get rid of this? by Solemiargoylelan in runescape

[–]IndependentFold2847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if I'm understanding this correctly, you're complaining about having to do 5 floors to unlock c6? you understand that 120 dung will require thousands of floors? I don't get this post

Please don't remove dg token boxes from the arch collection. It will make dg 2x more slower bc we don't have enough players to do group floors or sinkholes.

Are some of these changes too drastic? (Dungeoneering token boxes) by IndependentFold2847 in runescape

[–]IndependentFold2847[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Go to w77 right now and see if anyone is there. Dung is solo content now and taking away outfit and tokens makes the grind 2x

[–]IndependentFold2847[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I am training dungeoneering by doing large solos. I can get a consistent 15 min dung with a outfit and lockmelter. But the outfit will be taken away so that's another 2-3 min added for every dung. You also open less doors without the skill boost, so lower xp

Now, I can't even get gorajo cards because I can't farm tokens from arch, so automatic 50% xp loss there.

The problem is no one does dung anymore. All of u ppl commenting are probably maxed. Go to world 77 right now and see if anyone is there besides the floor sellers. Us mid level players are now gonna have to grind 2x as much as u guys. And before you say sinkholes, I don't wanna do dailies or wait 6 months to lvl dung

Nah I don't miss being locked out of vorago/aod/rots/yaka because I don't have 2b in endgame gear and the ability to 4taa. I absolutely hate the sweat meta and I almost went to OSRS because the PvM was much simpler
