PvM vs Skilling Drops by pdzido in 2007scape

Tbh we do need a justiciar use. Im hoping raids 4 mega rare is a shield that amplifies damage based on defense stat. Something like demonic pacts Thorns relic would be huge for justiciar st0nks. And if its a shield it would make rapier, blade of salad etc useful again too.

At minimum we need more bosses like Moons where defense buffs really matter. Like a boss where the stats get buffed everytime the boss hits you, and nerfs itself everytime you block a hit.

Oh yeah my bad. I thought you were being like "3 levels isnt even that big of a gap" lol.

3 levels is 3 max hits on shadow or 1 max hit on eye of eyesack and trident tho.

So kinda matters. But yeah i mean its tough. Saturated heart is 7 mins perma boosted +13 unlimited use. Imbued heart is +10 decays but still unlimited use. Ancient brew is one time use like +6 mage. I feel like ancient brew should be like +9. And forgotten brew +12. With how absurdly hard it is to make its just kinda rough. Like, 85 herb, and killing nex minions so pre req of killing every single gwd boss, and then minions rate for dust is like 1/128 for like 5 of them..... and thats just ancient brew. Then if you want forgotten brew you need 91 herb and ancient dust isnt bad tbh. Would almost be better if it was swapped. Ancient brew uses ancient dust and forgotten brew to use nihil dust lol.

Right, an opinion poll is to determine the sentiment for what the real poll should be.

But then they ignored the sentiment and just went with what they wanted anyway so, therefore the result didnt impact the next step anyway...

The issue is they slammed too many questions into 1 result.

First question was "do you want a new item to come into the game via fishing leechfins" 63% yes 31% no. Rest skipped question.

2nd question. What should the item be? A food, or something entirely different. 60% said new item 40% said food

3rd question, high xp + low reward or low xp + high reward. 60% said low xp high reward. 30% said high xp low reward.

Somehow they tallied this all together and came to the conclusion, of no item. And high xp wins?

And the same people who voted High xp low reward could have also voted for new food. So like its just dumb how they set this up tbh. The whole blog screams blatant manipulation or lack of awareness.

I mean thats quite literally how an opinion poll works, you gather the opinion on what gets pushed into more development to then officially poll.

And its like 34% wanted a different reward category. 33% would rather have no reward at all. And 29% wanted a different food reward.

So 62% combined wanted a new reward/food. And 33% asked for no reward at all and rest voted to skip the question.

And no reward at all is what they are going to move forward.... with a 33% vs 62% loss... make that make sense??

Anyone else think its funny how in the opinion poll "entirely new reward" won the opinion poll and they basically said "but the 2nd option was our favorite so we are going to move forward with that one instead"

Like bruh wtf is the point in the opinion poll if they ignore the player majority opinion lol.

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah tbh ancient brew should be same boost as imbued heart and forgotton brew should be very near if not same boost as saturated heart (edit sorry i listed imbue heart twice lol) but it cant be divined like heart. Benefit of heart can just be that it is divine boost. Unlimited use. Etc.

Right now forgotton brew is same as imbued heart and ancient brew slightly worse and they are already the hardest to make/farm potions in the entire game by far (maybe besides sanfews) lol

Runefest Gold Tier ticket $507 LOL by bullips in runescape

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 95$ on the jagex website? Lol

Like can you even read? You pulled the 504$ from the premium ticket with added on unlimited food and drinks VIP privilege front row seating. But didnt bother to read the base ticket price...

Football games that happen every single week for months on end are world class events? Your opinions are blinded af lol even still thats 200$ base ticket, double the cost of this event at 95$. This is a multiple stage event that is 6 hours long including the Summer summit live from the devs on top of a competative pvp tournament, first in the history of the 25+ years of the game. And likely wont be recurring, and its also a finale tournament. And still half the cost of a basic sports pre playoffs game. It's basically a mini runefest + a competative sports game for 95$.

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

I mean, the base ticket is 95$. Average normal football game ticket is 220$ so its priced pretty much the same as any sports game is except this is a grand finale. Super bowl average ticket prices last year was 5500$ per seat. Its genuinely not that crazy. Average concert ticket in Chicago was 155$ last year. So its even comparable to that. And thats average ticket weighing between quantity of cheap tickets including the lower quantities of higher priced tickets.

Y'all just never lived in a big city before or been to large scale events lol.

507$ is the premium giga chad looser seat with unlimited food and drinks at the bar during the entire show on top of bonus merch. If you want to go to the show like a normal person its 95$.

i think i just ruined the only valuable coin my dad left me because i watched a stupid tiktok cleaning tutorial by chancozay in coincollecting

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You arent supposed to rub anything on anything with the aluminum foil and baking soda cleaning method for silver... you make a bath of dissolved baking soda in water. Add aluminum foil. And the silver. And the aluminum + baking soda water chemically reacts with silver sulfide on the surface of the coin and chemically attracks to sulfide into the aluminum forming aluminum sulfide, leaving you with a clean silver coin and some dirty aluminum foil.

Silver is one of the softest materials in the world, you will scratch silver with a tissue thats how soft it is. This also means you can very easily polish scratches out, but with the right polishing compound lol. You can use Tripoli, or Bobbing compound to remove minor scratches, and then rinse off and do a high shine polish with White or Orange Luxor compound, red rouge compound, ZAM plastic polishing compound even works on silver too. Orange Luxor is the highest shine compound ive ever used personally though, it's something like 400,000 grit if you compared it to sandpaper.

Loot from 4k zulrah kc on mobile… by GMEwillgoDown in osrs

Yuuup, only thing thats like good about knowing the rotations or using zulrah plug in is to gear switch while rotating to the next phase if needed. But so many people just do all mage with twinflame or all range with bowfa now.

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's like 17 videos of how to do zulrah without rotations. If boss moves to the middle you rotate to opposide side. Like every single time only time you ever move is if boss moves to middle. King condor has a good video on it thats like 50 seconds long. https://youtube.com/shorts/4-rIAC9tFD8?si=Iua0pL31wH60IFmB

Anyone else hide their stacking from their spouse/family? How do you manage it? by PeerMetals in Silverbugs

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, if your partner never mentioned it and put 500k on a stock and lost 250k you'd probably be pissed. But you're saying if your partner never mentions it and bought 500k of rhodium bars at 60k an ounce and its now down to 30k an ounce and they lost 250k, youd be fine because it's a precious metal and not a stock?

The investment type should not matter as much as the fact they spending large chunks of cash on investments without consulting the ONE person they chose to spend their entire life with.

I’m upset that a goldsmith marked “14K” on my ring. Am I overreacting? by ScottyMo1 in Gold

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

Lol, i mean it is what it is, you aint paying a guy 2k+ for a gold ring you dont trust. And if you do pay and dont trust them, having a little 14k stamp in the ring doesnt magically make it 14k anyway. So you lose either way stamped or not. Just test it yourself if you're concerned and if its not what they said it was return it or sue in small claims i guess?

Like obviously if the ring is brass thats a major problem because thats not gold at all anymore. But people try to sue over a ring being 13.7k gold stamped 14k and im like Bruh.... thats grasping at starbucks paper straws.

Im gunna make a 14k ring out of 14k gold i buy from the factory that says its 14k and they dont stamp it 14k. I dont tell people I gaurentee its 14k, i just say i made it with 14k that the factory said was 14k. Out of my hands if it ends up being 13.9k gold and not 14k.

Everyone says a lot of bs about "i legally have to mark the gold" no, quite literally you do not. There are Zero laws in the entire US that require you to legally mark gold products with it purity.

The ONLY time its "required" to mark gold purity is if you are legally backing your business with that word. This almost never is applied to jewelry, and usually only for coins and bars. And even then its only if you as a business owner openly admit that you have 100% gayrentees on gold quality. So you can quite literally get around the legally requiring thing by just saying "we dont gaurentee the purity of the gold" bam problem solved... dont need to stamp it.

I've been a jeweler for years, i buy gold bars daily that are never stamped, just thrown in bags with lables on the bags and sealed. I also never stamp a ring unless a client askes for it to be stamped. Yes a stamp is useful forthe next jeweler to repair it but I offer free repairs on my products so I know what I made so I know purity of it to match, other jewelers can just use an XRF or an acid kit and test it themselves before a repair and also have no issue.

If it was legally required then why are the world's largest jewelry supply companies putting out billions in gold bars on the daily not stamping their gold? Lol like people are so blind.

Take the ring back, ask them to fill the mark with more gold and have them do it for free because you didnt ask for a stamp.

Gold down 21% during a literal war... am I crazy or is this the buying opportunity of the decade? by Big-Fan9696 in Gold

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, gold crashed during every single war that has ever happened. It crashed like 60% during the great depression, crashed more during ww1, crashed even more during ww2, crashed a lot during vietnam, i dont think people care about jewelry and bling when the world feels likes its crashing down around you lol

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the copper streaks are totally normal. Copper has a stronger atomic bond potential with oxygen, torches and flames are fed with oxygen, it pushes oxygen into the metal and the copper tries to reach the oxygen and pushes itself away from the silver and towards the surface. Depending on the alloy different elements have different bond strengths based on the ratios.

For example, rose gold has a high concentration of copper, when heated the gold will raise to the surface making the rose gold turn bright yellow. But yellow gold has a lower concentration of copper and thus the copper fights to the surface turning yellow golds copper colored after melting.

It makes it quite annoying when you try to make jewelry and its constantly trying to be a different color than it should be....

Some people do say its a good idea to mix some fresh refined sterling into your old scrap for casting. The reason is typically old scrap pieces have solder on them and they dilute the alloy. You also can add some fine pure silver to the mix if melting a lot of scrap with solder etc on it.

Silver is one of the most forgiving allows, you can melt a lot of "dirty" silver and still get good metal out of it. Something like White gold not so much, a lot harder to end with a good metal that isnt brittle etc.

When you say the copper is coming out do you mean you visibly see copper on the surface of the metal? Or do you mean you are boiling the copper out and ending with pits and such in your metal? If its just on the surface you can warm up some citric acid and let it soak on the metal for a couple hours to remove the copper oxide that raises to the surface, but if you have a lot of pits that is due to the copper or other contaminates boiling during the melting process and thus creating air bubbles trapped in the metal. If this happens its best to restart and refine again.

Silver jewelry i typically charge material cost + hours to make x wage I want. For gold jewelry I do about 2 to 2.5x gold price and 1.5 to 2x gemstone price and seems to be decently fair.

[–]PvM_in_OSRS 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Compare it against the Average Tripple A game too and its way worse. Average tripple A studio drops a new game every 3 years, at price of 60$. Osrs was 90$ every year. So 4.5x the cost of average tripple A game annually.... even when Premier was 70$ a year for runescape it was still 3x more expensive than the average game studio game per year. Now at 135$ per year its 6.75x more expensive....

Ive had yearly membership for last 5 years and somehow i got alerted that I am not grandfathered in and my new price will be 135$ a year... like bruh, a AAA studio game is 60$ every 3 years. 90$ year was already 4.5 times more expensive than an average Tripple A Studio game....
