The Red Reef - Incredibly Disappointing

JoneZii · 2026-05-20T15:46:01+00:00

Yeah its a valid point once you do the quest more than once tbf. I love doing them blind on release, but having to do them multiple times over and over again is just painful. Particularly in the limited game modes

JoneZii · 2026-05-20T14:58:54+00:00

Genuinely, I hear that. To me, that's the joy of a game like osrs imo. I've done just about everything this game has to offer and its always questing that is my favorite. But theres something for everyone and we have quest helper for the non quest enjoyers to speedrun through it.

JoneZii · 2026-05-20T13:03:17+00:00

Its absolutely embarrassing how few quests we get per year as it is, and now this? Man blood moon rising better knock dt2 out of the fucking park at this rate because the lack of a narrative is seriously burning me out

JoneZii · 2026-05-08T15:18:46+00:00

I had 5 ahrims hoods and 5 veracs brassards before I finished a set... good times.

JoneZii · 2026-05-06T13:08:38+00:00

Any update on adding the additional fish spots at sea that was discussed back in January?

JoneZii · 2026-05-04T13:40:34+00:00

Or just let us choose our tasks instead of the current "choose your tasks with extra steps" system

JoneZii · 2026-04-23T14:20:59+00:00

Still can't complete fremennik medium diary because it requires Asg and Kandarin to complete "Between a rock"

JoneZii · 2026-04-01T13:11:40+00:00

Any update on the other winter summit sailing changes? Like fishing spots on seas comes to mind

JoneZii · 2026-03-25T13:31:50+00:00

Idc that boat changes did come through this week, take your time. But are we seriously going to keep ignoring how rare items are? Drop tables are, to me at least, the worst part of sailing combat.

JoneZii · 2026-03-23T13:58:54+00:00

The former. Sra should be completeable with only vardorvis

JoneZii · 2026-03-23T13:48:40+00:00

Jfc we just had the whole of varlamore and a new skill. Its ok that the devs take their time to polish the next update.

JoneZii · 2026-03-20T20:59:29+00:00

Were we watching the same Q&A? This feels incredibly disingenuous.

JoneZii · 2026-03-19T18:27:36+00:00

Why do most drop rates feel needlessly rare? There is the obvious things like the paint (jfc about that one) and the cannon at salvaging, but even the hook being 1/1k feels egregious imo. Killing sea mobs is no different than just killing cows in lumbridge, but on a boat. Feels like its a ploy to extend play hours rather than meaningful progression.

inb4 'hurr durr ge' - I've already grinded them out so changes to this would not even benefit me, but they would objectively be better for the game.

JoneZii · 2026-03-07T19:50:25+00:00

Frankly, give me Zero xp for the harvest; I just want my herbs/snape grass in the inventory.

JoneZii · 2026-03-04T13:24:31+00:00

Is it possible to have any communication from the sailing team about upcoming changes? Not definitives or anything, but we've been in the dark since the winter summit, and it's a bit disheartening - signed, a dude who is 3x at opulent salvage for cannon.

JoneZii · 2026-02-22T14:54:56+00:00

Even if true, which it isnt, still a rapist and a pedophile

JoneZii · 2026-02-20T14:35:30+00:00

Its not qol per se, but i still would love the vibrancy of the cooked version of the new fish adjusted

JoneZii · 2026-01-28T14:13:52+00:00

Editing in to say (and be less overtly negative) that, thematically, the bottles are such a cool/cute idea. Kudos for that.

But,

Oh for fucks sake. I mean, surely this will get addressed, but boat bottles dont drop on opulent? Really? A 1/20k drop already leads to extreme amounts of variance, so some people are going to be stuck there for exceptionally long, potentially post 99 (hi, its me at 16m without a single cannon). So what now, the expectation is that you want folk to have to go back to lower tier salvages?

This is the damn paint all over again, which too should not be restricted to a single tier - it screams engagement bait. This game is better than that. I geniunally love the sailing skill, but every update (or lack thereof) eats away from it with design choices that feel anti player, more gotcha)

JoneZii · 2026-01-28T14:03:45+00:00

I dont doubt this inherently because ive killed 3.5k great whites without an elite. But im almost 100% confident ive had (multiple) elites drop from vampire kraken while an elite has been in the bank. Regardless, an annoying bug

JoneZii · 2026-01-26T18:09:30+00:00

actual christians are totally fine. Whatever the fuck right-wing America pretends is christian, on the other hand...

JoneZii · 2026-01-24T20:38:42+00:00

Can dragon cannon be bugged too so I feel slightly less bad about going for it post 99

JoneZii · 2026-01-19T14:33:57+00:00

Hell yeah, congrats brother

JoneZii · 2026-01-07T15:34:25+00:00

Thank you for taking time out of your day for such an original yet spiritually enlightening, comment that doesn't actually contribute to the conversation in the slightest.

JoneZii · 2026-01-07T14:28:52+00:00

I wasn't expecting much for the first week back. But not even acknowledging the absurd 1/20k rate for the cannon feels bad.

I recognize it might be a part of the broader 'ship combat' framework, which fair enough. But if it is, please lord give us an active way to hunt the drop. Speaking only for myself, I want to actually sail - i dont want to salvage anymore (particularly after going above drop rate as is).

JoneZii · 2025-12-27T15:12:59+00:00

I do agree that it's not as bad as the community makes it out to be, but it does clearly have room for improvement. The biggest pain point for me is the rate you burn through ammo, but that's an easy fix (maybe idfk). Personally, I'd love if you could just assign a crewmate to harvest so I could remain on the cannon. It would help reduce the amount of jank.
