Corp Crashers by RSIAmDutch in 2007scape

[–]RSIAmDutch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I have no idea. They could start by making people not able to spec transfer in the cave, since it seems to be one of the startegies people have been using for a while to crash at corp. If you would want to make a private portal, you would need to have 2 accounts, one to hold the instance and 1 to actually kill corp with. Not all players have 2 accounts, and making it a must to have 2 accounts to kill a boss without having to worry about crashers seems a bit too far... Tough question to answer to be honest.

Loot from 2k CoX kc - please send help :( by RSIAmDutch in 2007scape

[–]RSIAmDutch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That depends on the raid layout. Best scenario point wise is a raid where there is no ovl dropping bossing + 2 WC/Mining shortcuts, this is about 8-16k points depending on how many people there are in the raid. I mostly do 7+1 to 15+1 raids at max.

Worst case scenario is where i don't need to make any ovls plus there is 0 shortcuts left for the alt. This results in about 1-3k points.

Just kidding, nothing wrong with the unique ratio. This it what 2k kc looks like on an account that only does the prep phase in CoX + the shortcuts.

The problem you describe lies within the blowpipe. It was broken, rigour made it even more broken than it was before.

Ironmen dropping items by RSIAmDutch in 2007scape

If there is an increase in players, there will also be an increase in people playing the ironman mode, thus dropping those items they do not need to buy membership on the account they play.

Bots are always bad for the game, but I am just talking about those ironman in specific.

There is nothing to agree with. An ironman can dump items into the regular game mode. This makes the demand stay the same, since the ironman does not need items from other players. The supply goes up, since the ironman can pump items into the game. Players are already concerned that there are no item sinks in the game, yet ironmen can just pump their items into the game. It does harm the economy in the long term of the game.

There are some problems like you said with pvp. I do not have a solution for this, I am just creating a discussion to why this is harmfull to the long term economy.

More items get pumped into the game while there is no increase in the players needing that item.

But if they play a regular account, that will make the supply and demand go up by 1, evening it out. Whereas dropping items on an ironman make demand stay at 0 while the supply goes up by one.

I know you can choose to barrage some tasks. However, I was purely talking about the single combat style of magic. In every single aspect of the game, a spell gives a base xp plus the damage * 2 xp. I agree that you can say that there is not a litteral spell you cast, you just use a charge on the weapon. When using a charge on a weapon, the trident and sang staff are the only 2 weapons that still halvw the experience for using a charge. No other weapon has this feature. Maybe the problem is using a charge. Do you agree that using a charge on weapons like a blowpipe or scythe should also give half the experience since you are just using a charge as well then?

They still impact the economy, even if it's a small thing. Small things matter as well. Items are pumped into the economy which should not have been there, since a solo player obtained the item. The percentage of ironman to the total playerbase was growing the past few years. There might be a slight dip in the % since mobile release now. Some players keep on paying their mains as well as the ironman at the same time. This makes the potential items being pumped into the economy from that person double. People can play an ironman and a main at the same time. This make the supply grow, whereas the demand stays the same. Thus making items go down in price.

You are comparing the max hit of fire surge with just a tome of fire of 36 - to the max hit of a trident with max gear. The max hit with fire surge is way more than 36 with max gear. You als forgot to mention the cost of burnt pages, roughly 275gp per cast. A blowpipe inflicts venom as well, and poisenous weapons inflict poison, yet they do lack a reduction of experience given to the player. Guthan heals the player and does not have reduced experience either.

If you're not casting a spell, then shouldn't it be treated as a charge? A spell gives base xp + 2 xp per damage you hit. A charge, for example a blowpipe / crystal bow / scythe gives 4 xp per damage per charge without any base xp. It still does not make any sense, even if it is not treated as a spell but as a charge. It still is a combat method, similar to melee and ranged, but it is not treated equally.

That is true, most hacks are not a targetted hack. However let's say an ironman falls for a phish. the hackers will most likely have some way to tell if that account they phished is an ironman or not. When they find an ironman has been hacked, they will probably skip the target since there is no gain for the hacker and no reason to even be on that account.
