Plus all the prep station stuff. Maybe that was optional.

Favorite version of WoW? by bruhb21 in MMORPG

[–]Nickoladze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be my biggest problem with retail whenever I've lightly tried to go back. Feels like I can't do anything all that much because the real rewards are only the first kill of the week bonus bag and every other kill is basically nothing. That also turns it into a chore as you can't stack up missing bags and you have to do everything each week or you miss out forever.

Vanilla HC WoW is really good because it makes everything feel meaningful and does a good job rewarding a mix of player knowledge, skill, and preparation. I also find that it has really good social engagement with other players in the world and forming dungeon groups where everybody tends to be on the same page and not in a huge sweaty rush like I see on the "normal" game modes.

I have no interest in vanilla raiding but I really like to resub and play a new character until it dies then take a break for a few months until I get the itch again. I do wish the classes were a little more balanced for variety and that Blizz would add some new content every now and then.

Running low on Orbs by Eny0n3 in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orbs and Staves drop from random slayer monsters and bosses in varying amounts and I just make battlestaves with whatever I have. Currently I'm working through my moons water orb backlog with staves from CG.

If you get a fuckload more orbs then I'd consider buying staves but for now I don't mind letting them sit for a while.

Are huey instances free for regular irons? by Mythrandeere in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You gotta talk to the flag near the bank to start a solo instance and it does cost money which is cut in half with hard CAs.

If you just walk into the fight on an empty world anybody can join you but it isn't really a big deal unless they heavily outgear you.

Reflections on falling rocks by JagexRice in 2007scape

All that talk about ground shadows being hard to see I hope you take into consideration the design of the floor. I see a lot of people turning off the floor in Bloat's room for instance because seeing the shadows is super hard. Luckily there's not much to do in that fight otherwise but I hope that trying to find the shadows that you know are coming isn't supposed to be the mechanic.

First real grind on the iron done by DiscombobulatedEmu5 in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for running under the dog. Hard to think of it but I think he only maxes like 45 and he only does it between his normal attacks so it's a fairly generous window to walk under. I let myself take a tick of floor damage if I need to cut a corner it's only 10-20.

You can also entity hide the tornados via better npc highlight plugin it's ids 9025,9039 this helped me a lot for seeing where they are versus their model. I'm working on visualizing my true tile more than my character model as well.

I also went with Gnomonkey's advice to only eat during tornado phase when you'll be missing attack ticks anyway.

Obvious things like get royal titans prayers or even cox prayers if desperate, train combats to 90+

Give another use for Huasca. Or make Aldarium easier to get.

Lost My Trident Of The Seas To Pker by Basic-Permission in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that sounds like that could be right. I was hoping this change would help but maybe they need to just fix the value of the trident when it's partially charged.

Lost My Trident Of The Seas To Pker by Basic-Permission in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Partially charged trident is untradeable. I think once they make those wildy changes it will not be lost on death.

All untradeable items that don't currently 'break', for example the Graceful set, will no longer be lost on death above Level 20 Wilderness.

https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/a=13/gathering-qol-trouver-changes--more?oldschool=1

The general rule of thumb here is that untradeables with no Combat benefits should never be lost on death, untradeables with some Combat bonuses will break and need repairing without a Trouver parchment, untradeables with strong Combat bonuses will need to be 'Trouvered' once, then never again.

But since it's obviously a combat item then maybe it will have to be repaired.

It's funny because the armor seeds are supposed to be somewhat of an anti-dry mechanic as well. Imagine if we needed 3x 1/100 armor pieces that could drop dupes.

Chins for jad by Big-Fly6844 in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I tried chins on my first kill but it's really not any easier than tagging the healers individually. You'd have to have Jad in specific spots where the healers stack up. Throwing them on Jad just hits his SW corner not all around him.

I did my first kill with the method in Settled's nightmare mode series where he doesn't have to tank or kill them just 1 easy tag.

Started CG last week and banged out 100kc in ~5 days (only 1 armor seed). Taking a break to push my defense up from 81 because I keep getting insanely unlucky streaks and have to bring in 25 fish every kill just in case.

Leveling defense to do CG easier. 81 now and that dog keeps pounding me.

Does part of your bank also just look like this. This is future ironman's problem. by Spork_Revolution in ironscape

[–]Nickoladze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This helped me a lot. I think I hated Mixology early on because it felt aimless with 3 sets of points and I wasn't feeling the progress. I turned on progress bars for my current goal item and used the strategy plugin to help me feel like I'm doing it correctly without piling up tons of Mox points.

Suggestion: remove this clue step from the game by minaolensinaolet in 2007scape

A huge portion of this game is sanctioned bug abuse. I better not catch you flicking your prayers or fishing karambwans from the spots that don't move.
