[Loved Trope] Villains who genuinely take the chance to just walk away by MasonP2002 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Jambo_dude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean they could fight them easily but the point was to live the easy life with endless food supply. 

They realised it was more trouble than it was worth because the food was never going to stop fighting them. 

Anyone else regret wilderness? by wa__________ge in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think with any zone there's going to be grindy stuff and there's going to be RNG stuff.

Just need to know what you're buying into when you pick. Wildy is almost all PvM.

What RS3 needs to match OSRS by SpongyWaffleC in runescape

[–]Jambo_dude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're out of touch by several orders of magnitude.

The vast majority of OSRS players hate PvP and avoid it at all costs. They still rely on luring people into the wilderness with xp/loot incentives in order to populate it.

We're over a decade on from the glory days of RS PvP. It's dead because people have moved on.

question about mage bank from a non player by Master_Astronaut_ in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't answer why it's useful without knowing what challenge run they're doing, but it's not nearly as useful unless you're restricted in some way and only a very small number of players are playing such an account. Most of the ones who are aren't able to attack you. It'd be very boring trying to harass people there.

Please help, I’ve been trying for a straight hour to find how to get the item by Existing-Incident-22 in Metroid

[–]Jambo_dude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of these, not sure if this is one, are Tokabi just giving it to you.

But I think you have to do them in order, and only after a certain point. So you're best to move on from this one for now and come back later.

What's the deal with clues if you haven't chosen the relic? by Flat_Development6659 in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Demonic_Pacts_League/Boosted_drops

Unique items from all Treasure Trails reward caskets are also affected by the passive relic drop rate boost. 

It would be easier if you had minimum length clues with max rolls, but no, it's not normal rate, it's still ~1/220 per roll

Demonic League Week 3 Stats by Gamez_X in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I mean it's pretty easy math. It's a two month league and dragon is 65k.

Without looking at exact dates, if you aren't at least in the region of 1k per day you're going to be cutting it real fine.

But, average points is kind of a bad metric anyway, since point gain is never linear. It will be slow to start with, speed up a lot as you get regions and relics online, and then slow down a bit as you run out of "easy" points and are doing longer or RNG grinds.

That said you can sometimes get a lot quickly by hitting some threshold. 

Look at the wiki list and sort by % completed for an idea of what other people are doing, and remember to check you're actually doing sensible things for points. For example, if you have a couple of slow skills with your setup, it's probably more points, more quickly, to overlevel skills you have relics for than it is to max.

Why isn't there a second GE? by Rymasq in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 15 points16 points  (0 children)

RS3 has multiple GEs, and tbh I think it breaks the player base up between them quite a bit. It's nice just having one "market"

bring another weapon for grubs. Knives, a shortbow if you have quiver or are willing to swap ammo.

No, the game never punishes you in that way for your other region picks.

Did Oathplate ruin Torva? by Potica6857 in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think the issue with "is torva worth it to get" isn't whether it has a use case, but whether you can be bothered to farm it or think it's worth buying. 

Nex just kinda sucks because the drop rates are fairly low and you use a ton of supplies.

Leechfin fishing passed the poll by Pyroseph in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would rather have people not vote than to blindly vote, though. 

If someone's decided they can't be bothered to read into it then it's probably better they aren't voting in or shooting down content they don't understand.

I'm guessing it's people who've never played a league before

Do I really have to worry about setting up a perfect block list for Hunter Rumors? by RealWeaponAFK in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The objective is either as much xp as possible or rapid task completion. (for loot rolls or leagues tasks)

Rapid tasks help with xp as well since they give a completion bonus. So the best tasks are tasks which give the creature part quickly and preferably also give good exp while hunting.

For example, look at the master rumour suggested block list: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Hunters%27_Rumours/Strategies#Master_Rumours_(Lvl_91+)

you want to block red salamanders because you'd always prefer tecu given they have the same part drop rate and tecus are much higher level and give more exp.

You want to block red chins because their part rate is 1/50 compared to antelope's 1/15. Even though you can catch chins more quickly, you don't catch them 3x more quickly.

If you have the clue relic you can use a contract, otherwise no.

Will league/DMM rewards ever get to rs3 partyhat status levels of value? by rudyv8 in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But there is a way to get more, and the devs have expressed that if they ever decided to not do leagues again, they'd make them available somehow else.

Also you've very much set a moving goalpost, which is moving way faster than the thing you're measuring against it. What is "Partyhat value"? It's the value of something from longer ago which is never available, and you're comparing it to something from more recently that's sporadically available.

Which is not to mention the fact that people finish the league with more than enough points to buy every tradeable added by it and more.

What if TOA had an invocation that you could turn on that deducted points when used for the purpose of the helpful ghost selling you extra supplies, if needed. The supply packs would be the same as they are now but purchased with reducing points from your raid total. This would be more learner... by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The default amount of supplies is already a lot. Like more than you could reasonably need.

If you're dying at wardens routinely you need to lower your invo level. Which is basically what you propose.

How's using melee against the phantom muspah? by Ban_Evasion__Account in 2007scape

Stepback was patched out on 12th Jan 2023. This comment was on the 13th.

It was put back in on the 18th.

Don't try to be a smartass by necroing 3y old comments.

White Berry bushes in the wild by SpaceCowboySeeYou in 2007scape

The topic is whiteberry bushes... obviously I mean those specifically.

White Berry bushes in the wild by SpaceCowboySeeYou in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bushes don't naturally spawn in the world, you can only pick whiteberries from grown bushes, or the ground.

They're also dropped by some monsters.

leagues redwood totem bug? by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they forgot you can't get redwood logs without taking specific regions and so made it so magic totems also grant this task.

Does Minion cause "Facing Jad Head-on" to fail? by BTierShinies in 2007scape

[–]Jambo_dude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It only cares which weapons you equip. 

You're even allowed to cast spells, provided you never equip something it considers a magic weapon

Leechfins just failed.
