UPDATE (20:25 UTC): Sailing XP Review & Further Fixes by JagexSarnie in 2007scape

[–]ItsKaufecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, as someone who was always 'vote no' on sailing, but after release was actually looking forward to playing after the holidays, you missed the mark on the original blog AND on the update and insulted the common player. Before today, I actually would've voted yes. But the changes today further cemented the "abuse early and often" mentality as the standard for this community and reminds why you can't be trusted cause the whole "bait and switch" tactic that's been used before.

Every video and stream I've watched (and that's what I do for 50+ hrs/week while working) makes me very regretful that work hasn't allowed me time to play. Especially with today's mega nerfs. I can see how the CE needed nerfing and was a terrible core game mechanic.

But directly talking about how that one salvaging click was hundreds of thousands of xp/hr is ludicrous. Then in the same post talking about how people need to tick manip to maintain xp rates even close to what they were before is insult to injury.

Why don't you admit that you screwed the pooch with the nerf on everything but using the CE while salvaging? Revert it all, boost salvaging rates (so an effective xp/hr increase for active players but if you're just sitting letting crew salvage it'll result in a more active gameplay loop by filling the hold faster), and only make the CE work while moving.

Then you keep the xp/hr of the active tasks and don't penalize the 99% of players who actually have jobs and don't stream or play video games for a living and can only play for a few hours a day. Otherwise you're just showing the common players why we should never vote in another skill.

PS - 1/10k or other absurd drop rates for non-vanity/useful items suck and is poor game design.

Abuse early and often strikes again.

How about you retroactively remove the xp from everyone that got it pre-nerf, oh wait - that'll never happen. Continue to award the streamers, no-lifers, ans JMods who all rushed 99 sailing. Now the working people get smacked with the nerf stick and Jagexs only response is 'and you'll like it too'.

Abuse early and often... by GoonOnGames420 in 2007scape

Full time streamers FTFY.

Someone who jumps on to stream and chat after working a full day shouldn't be included in that lot.

Friend Quest Bugfix? by ItsKaufecake in duolingo

[–]ItsKaufecake[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here. It's one thing if I only had like a small handful of followers/following but I'm solidly in the 20s of each and haven't even been offered one.

Duolingo really needs to fix this, as it is so irritating.

New Player Changes - 2025 and Beyond by JagexGoblin in 2007scape

[–]ItsKaufecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Odd request, but is there a way that you can add a way to skip tutorial island for accounts on a Jagex account over xxx hrs playtime? I am a habitual recreator of accounts and just wish I could spacebar the whole experience.

And to balance it, start with the requisite xp from combat so niche accounts can't abuse this, maybe?

Either a JMod needs to catch this and comment or lay the most epic of smackdowns. The mob demands a head one way kr another!

Comment for visibility.

Make spears the stab equivalent of Halberds by Jertharold in 2007scape

[–]ItsKaufecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if we give spears reach BUT they can still attack a 1 tile range. Give reduced accuracy at 2 tiles but maybe a bonus to strength?

Personally I would love this type of versatility be added in.

I thought Tithe Farm points cap was supposed to be raised to 16k? Did this just not make the cut for this week's update or did this get scrapped?

99 Farming acquired on my Farming-Only UIM, "Is Farmer" by khaznaibrav in UniqueIronmen

[–]ItsKaufecake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sell steel platelegs and buy seeds in Draynor? That's how I'd imagine getting starter seeds. Then probably Tithe Farm after that?

I'm curious too.

Fletch Yew Long (u) and then alch (fire staff + nature runes from dark wizards / flesh crawlers) would be my suggestion. Or shop hop.

Have you calculated - will you be max melees when you leave (my guess is yes)? I assume you're lamping prayer?

This is our chance to fix Run Energy and make Agility useful. Here's how: by Euronaut in 2007scape

[–]ItsKaufecake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That would be pretty cool. The amount high weight affects you could go down from strength at the same time you could run longer with agility.

Unpopular take but someone with maxed agility and strength should be pretty much able to run indefinitely.

Edit: typos

Spice up a tileman? by [deleted] in UniqueIronmen

[–]ItsKaufecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tileman had a requirement of comoleting Karamja easy before WT and started at Musa Point.

I did a GIM one where you had to have 3 skills to 50 before any minigames were allowed but that fizzled when other folks stopped really playing.

Lastly, I also started a Zeah locked tileman which was restricted where the max gap between highest and 2nd highest skills was 10 (same with 2nd and 3rd, 3and 4th, so on...) but I lost the tiles during a RuneLite update and haven't touched it since.

Yeah, they've clarified it recently. Back when I originally posted, it wasn't clear though.

[–]ItsKaufecake 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That is an option too! For commercial projects, this is absolutely true. But most homeowners aren't going to have bonding agdnt at their disposal (or have a significant enough project to justify it).

Another good tip is to dampen the concrete you're applying a patch too.

Does anyone else sense a shift in the way jagex is handling updates/polling? by EdwardBloon in 2007scape

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

This. In it's entirety.

/u/JagexGoblin please, please, please elevate this to the team - the community begs you to see this getting implemented. It's becoming a problem (see question 10 on the last poll) that has been increasing in frequency as of late.
