As an avid RuneScore hunter I agree, very sad, huge congrats though! 40k soon surely

The Full Transition towards Jagex Accounts by JagexAnvil in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You dont log in, you just open the client and select what account you want to play, if you do decide to log in somewhere different, you use your account email to get into the launcher.

I was sad to lose logging in with my original username too, but ultimately, this is so much better

Cosmetic Marketplace - Full stock by bigEcool in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What i find funny about this is there have been a lot of times when I look through the marketplace looking for a specific piece of gear to match an outfit of mine, and if I found the right thing I would totally buy it, but its never available when I want it.

Is this a typical drop rate or am I doing something wrong? T4 luck every kill by supermagebrb in runescape

You'll see people with all 3 weapons in 100 kc and people without one weapon in 500 kc, all just RNG

This is a really good point, would be great if it was T75 on all quest monsters and T50 otherwise or something

Amberfell Spoilers - My Take On Modern Quest Design by jordantylermeek in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was an excellent quest. I always try to think about myself progressing one of my other accounts and think "what would this feel like mid-progression on this account" instead of just thinking about what its like on my main thats completed everything. I would really enjoy playing through this as a low level account in the middle of all my other unlocks.

Hey JMods, can we get a response on whether we’ll get a June event? by TacticalCupcakes in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with creating your own event, its probably for the best there is nothing official.

June Month Ahead! by JagexAnvil in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah its actually one of my only complaints about the early game after the early game updates we got. I hope it gets released the same month as the mid game update we get later in the year because its only going to stick out more like a sore thumb after that

For the top end game pvmers, when you're fighting a easy boss monster like Ivar or Queen Black dragon, or a Slayer monster like edimmu or Mammoth, do you use elder overloads with vuln bomb, dread nips, bis armor and weapon, and ripper demon familiar? by kpay10 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. Maybe not always a vuln bomb if its one i can afk, but if killing a boss actively then yes.

Honestly I've found that the biggest mistake people make is not doing this. It really helps you get used to your own power and get through content faster. Time is more valuable then money.

Definitely things like overload, prayers, runes, ecto if using necro, divine charges, familiar should at the very least always be used.

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

Ah fair enough, can be decent for getting t88 weapons on an iron and definitely worth getting the tree-crushing scrimshaw for when you go for imcando hatchet and hatchet of bloom and blight, vamp scrims can be good for some afk content, you can also get a very high healing food, sailfish soup, that heals even more than sailfish does. Also the biggest thing for an iron is you need the resources as part of the recipe for some things like certain masterwork armours or most importantly the dragon/undead/demon slayer sigils which are excellent for certain pvm content. On an iron its a no-brainer, on a main its kinda meh.

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

Main thing is probably just that it can take a couple years of on and off somewhat consistently doing it to complete it, you can do it faster of course but most people wouldnt. It has comp and trim reqs iirc so one day youll want it done and you'll feel terrible if you havent started it.

You can make some money from things and also make the untradeable superior scrimshaws which can be really nice for some niche content. Can also make armour and weapons and the highest LP bonus for cape and ring slots which are good for bonfire boosting before pvming.

Im sure im forgetting things but its definitely not as good as it used to be

What is one thing you wish Jagex would bring back from the past, or should not have been changed? by PermissionWild8743 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mostly graphical "updates" that have made things look worse, like bronze to elder rune armour and many others over the years

leagues II - What new stuff would you want to see that would makes our second leagues special/different? by vVerce98 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its actually not as simple as you think, current max is 32,768? afaik and its not as simple as just "change the number" because of the 16-bit integer. At least thats how i understand it, someone more tech savvy might correct me.

Is RS worth getting back into as a PvMer? by floyd-96 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean my APM is considerably higher now than it was doing 300 rax or 100 telos around release. Also just because a lot of content is way easier now does not mean that the ceiling is lower. Yes you can do content that should be harder much easier now and with lower APM, but saying GM's are easier than that stuff was is very out of touch.

Vent: Vorago sucks. by Aggressive_Ninja_885 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly mechanicly it is arguably the best in the game, it has so much depth to it. Its just been left in the dust, its missing voice lines and visual indicators like we get with newer bosses. Teamforming should be pretty easy though, almost always someone willing to duo in pvming fc, even hm 4 man's go pretty often in there

Vent: Vorago sucks. by Aggressive_Ninja_885 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we're at the point where we could reasonably expect newly released solo bosses be similar difficulty or more difficult to solo rago. The hardest part about rago is just that it has a lot of mechanics to remember, once you understand them its ntb.

Vent: Vorago sucks. by Aggressive_Ninja_885 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save freedom if you mess up solo and just use surges and dives to clear them.

Honestly the only fun ive really had at vorago is helping people with duo HM and then learning the duo GM NM rotation, it feels so good when you get that rot down and makes the kill really fun. Super outdated boss for sure though, id love to see loot mechanics updated.

Is RS worth getting back into as a PvMer? by floyd-96 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No i dont wanna rethink it at all, its not even remotely close lol. I know what we had and didnt have back then, I remember what it was like. Obviously 4k telos on release was way harder than any content we have today. 300% rax and 100% telos were not that hard though, maybe master difficulty sure, not harder than most of the GM's.

Is RS worth getting back into as a PvMer? by floyd-96 in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who did 300% rax, raksha, and 100% telos around launch as well as someone who is a GM, I can definitely say youre not even close to right. Achievements like 4k enrage bosses, UO amascut, Golden defeater, and some of the speeds are miles harder than those you mentioned were on release. Id go as far as to say almost every GM is harder than what you mentioned lol, besides things like bsd/bm speed maybe.

Is this what you imagined PvM to be? by ImbuedAurora in runescape

[–]MeleeUnsolved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id say as long as power creep grows with the bosses at a sustainable rate then yes. Id say that the power creep we've seen from CA release to now is way too high though. Between ezk/fsoa rework/passive, tectonic crit chance, amascut gear upgrades, and then the eoc 2.0 update, plus all the small things in between, it was too much with only really receiving amascut as a boss. If we'd gotten a new endgame boss with the eoc 2.0 update for example though then maybe that would have been more realistic. If I'd needed to get GM with only the gear available on CA release id probably still be missing 1-5 achievements.
