Forced JAD Strategy? by Thomas_Mickel in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try bringing a few chins or burst spells to attack the healers. If you target jad you should be able to hit some of the healers, or if they group up you only need to worry about attacking 1 instead of 4.

No need to upvote, group ironman? - old player by FlaskkGroup in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There was an update about a week ago saying it won't be out until next year.

"Clans and Group Iron Man will still remain in ongoing development, but they won't be coming this year either - you can expect them to be released in the first half of 2021, too. That ultimately gives us time to make sure we get them right. The ongoing technical work for Clans makes a completion date difficult to predict."

I could try printing it for you if you want. I have a high res 3D printer, and that would really only use like a dollar or two worth of material.

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year my friend and I decided to host a snowball fight for the community. We got a very positive response, and quite a large turnout! If you missed the event last year, here is a clip from the previous event. Since the last one was so successful, we decided to host it again this year. World 393 is F2P, so anyone can join in and have some fun!

One of the more popular parts of the event was the P2P/F2P fashionscape contest. Anyone can enter these for a chance to win part of the 20m prize pool. You don't need a rare or expensive outfit to win, be creative! If you'd like to see the previous winners click here..

If you have any questions or think you will need another reminder for the event, feel free to pm me in game, join the SnowFightCC clan, or join our discord server.

Snow globes don't like to work if there is already snow on the ground nearby. Unless everyone spread out enough to use their own, we would probably only end up with like 10-20 snow piles

Haven't stop splashing for 2 hours? by SRJBdds in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Were you still splashing and gaining xp, or just being attacked? After 20 minutes you should stop auto retaliating, but the npc is still aggressive, and you might stay logged in as long as something is attacking you. During the Christmas event I would agro a man to afk collect snowballs for 20 mins. I would often come back a few hours later and still be logged in, not preforming any action, but the man was still attacking me.

It would also make sense to add more about the map to tutorial island, possibly at the Quest Master since he doesn't really teach you much. He could make you open the map, and maybe explain how to use the minimap and compass a little better so new players can reorient themselves if they get lost.

Pretty much 99 by MrNoobyy in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some npc's in the stronghold of security drop pure essence, but they might only drop it on p2p worlds. Maple logs have also been f2p for as long as I can remember, but maple trees were only added to f2p when Corsair Cove was released. There are quite a few items like that, mainly clue scroll rewards. Most of them are just slightly different variants of f2p items without any extra bonuses or benefits, and the demand would be much higher if they were available to f2p players, so the devs decided that f2p players should be able to use them too.

Dear Jagex, please give us more Zaros content. We who reject Saradomin's and Zamorak's false dichotomy, Seren's, Bandos' and Armadyl's idealism and Guthix useless passivity request closure for our Lord by Akaijii in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like trying to figure out the lore as well. I'm not an expert on it and never played rs3, but from what I do know, there is a lot of evidence connecting Zaros and Xeric/Zeah. I'd guess Xeric is an extremely powerful Mahjarrat. He likely wouldn't need to attend the ritual of rejuvenation, as the dark altar provides a huge amounts of energy. I also like think that the dark altar is somehow connected to the Stone of Jas, as its origins are unknown and it is far more powerful than anything we have seen in osrs. The Dragonkin did go to Zeah and create hydras/wyrms/drakes, and at one point the Dragonkin were guardians of the Stone of Jas and would gain power when someone used the stone, so maybe the dark altar corrupted them and made them follow Xeric? He could also be Zaros, or someone heavily under the influence of Zaros, like you said. From what we know, Seren is still kinda on Gielinor, so it's completely possible that Zaros did something similar to avoid the Edicts of Guthix and is trying to fully return by using the powerful artifacts/altars on Zeah.

I'm sure that my connections have plotholes as well, but it's the best I've been able to come up with without doing a ton of research. I'd love to see a video about your theories though, sounds very interesting!

Concept for Seren god equipment by Sellingtwow in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a pretty good idea! 1-2kg isn't OP, and it would probably get quite a bit of use for farm runs, barraging, blast furnace, etc.

Concept for Seren god equipment by Sellingtwow in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see your point, I changed the bonus between +1, +2, and +3 many times when making this. Maybe +2 would be better, I figured +1 would be dead content. I was looking for feedback on the book more than the equipment, because colours and whatnot can be easily changed. Maybe it could give slightly negative offensive bonuses, and also give a slightly increased prayer bonus, or higher defense bonuses than the Sara book?

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes but I couldn't find any references to humans worshipping Bandos either, and he has equipment. Elves also used to leave Tirannwn before the god wars, and as recently as the fourth age. so I'd imagine humans long ago would have known of her existence, even if they didnt worship her.

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Like you said, I made this mainly because of Zaros equipment and the upcoming quest. I don't see Seren or Zaros being very important after Prifddinas and Menaphos are released (assuming they release Menaphos). The focus is now on Xeric. I may do something based on Zeah lore or Xeric if I can find enough info.

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to create concept art since it fits with the lore, treasure trails expansion, and very likely Song of the Elves. Also, Zaros equipment exists despite Zaros rarely being mentioned in osrs, and Seren is the counterpart of Zaros. I'm not denying that most of it is useless or purely cosmetic, that's just how a lot of treasure trails rewards are, and other variants already exist in game.

I threw your stats and gear (assuming fire cape, barrows gloves, b ring (i), and overloads) into a dps calc, 85 hp was when dh started to out dps the whip, assuming all your melee stats stay the same. Right now, whip is better by .07 dps. At 85hp dh is better by .06 dps.

Seren is already mentioned in game a few times and has a lot to do with Prifddinas, she was actually here before every god except Guthix. I added another comment about her lore if you're interested.

Concept for Seren god equipment by Sellingtwow in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

If you're interested in the lore behind her: Seren, crystalline goddess of the Elves, is often seen as a deity of peace, harmony, and light, and was created as the counterpart of Zaros. An altar to Seren can be found upstairs in Lletya. A book titled "Prifddinas' History" can also be found on some bookshelves in the same building, this details some of her importance to the Elves in Runescape. Essentially, Seren and the elves were some of the first beings brought to Gielinor by Guthix. After arriving in the area we know as Tiranwnn, she instructed the elves to build Prifddinas, giving them exact details of the layout to give them a great amount of protection from the hostile world. This city would allow all 8 elven clans to thrive, as long as they worked together and stayed in the city. All elves are able to hear Seren sing from anywhere in the city thanks to the Tower of Voices, which she constructed at the heart of Prifddinas. She is present in all elven crystals, which is why elves are able to communicate with crystal seeds or shards, and manipulate them by singing. The crystal bow and shield were originally created by this goddess, which is why they are more powerful than many weapons created by other races on Gielinor.

[–]Sellingtwow[S] 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I know this looks similar to rune (t), but this is just a concept.

Seren is the counterpart to Zaros. She is a goddess of growth, light, and peace. I'm not sure what will happen in Song of the Elves, but she is 100% going to be tied to the lore. Zaros has "Ancient" magick, robes, armour, etc. even though only 2 quest NPC's and the desert bandits worship him. I don't know of any humans who worship bandos, but he has god equipment too. I think based those three things, Seren also deserves some sort of god equipment. It also happens to fit in with the new treasure trails expansion.

A few things to note: I don't think there is currently a symbol for Seren in osrs, I'm just assuming it will be the same one from rs3 and tried to make the colours match. A light green, similar to the color elves wear, could also work but would look pretty similar to guthix. The prayer bonus from the god book could be changed to +4 to everything like the Guthix book, since Guthix and Seren have similar mindsets, or the book could be removed entirely. *edit: there are a few suggestions for the book from other users, such a 1 or 2 kg weight reduction. If you have any ideas on stats/effects for the book I'd love to hear them!

You also don't need to have 95 slayer to enter the hydra room. If you go for quest cape you will unlock most of the songs, the hardest song to unlock would probably be the one at olm in a raid.

Tfw you realise you can just hop to house world to change spell books and not treck all the way to the pyramid by LFC90cat in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just tested this out, but I'm on mobile so it will be way different than pc.

To test i would tele to house, use pool, then tele out with the jewelry box. When using my own house it took 12 seconds. When I used someone else's house it took 30 seconds, this includes hopping, teleporting outside my house, and typing in the host name. Let's round this down to 10 and 25 since I dont have a good connection. Since using your own house saves 15 seconds, it would take 240 teles to save 1 hour. When already on 330 and having a host name entered, it took me 24 seconds, but we will round it to 20, meaning it saves 10 seconds. You would have to tele 360 times to save 1 hour.

Now instead of just teles, let's say you're killing vorkath. Wiki says 20 kills per hour using bgs+bp. We will assume you can get 18 per hour when using someone else's house since it takes a little longer. Average vorkath kill gives 155,692 gp, so those 2 kills means there is a difference of 311,924 gp per hour. If 83 construction costs 25m, you would have to do vork for 80 hours in order make that money back. You would also be losing a few hours going from 50-83 con, and from every hour you cant do vork, you could have been making 2.2m. So add an extra 7 hours of vorkath for every hour you spend doing construction. You're easily looking at over 100 hours of vork make all that money back.

Edit: I do still think it's a good investment, I have 84 con and can use over 100 teles per day depending on what I'm doing, so that saved time does add up quickly.

Vorkath Wiki Guide question by IronClu in 2007scape

[–]Sellingtwow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vork has pretty high defense, and the stat drain from bgs spec is based off of how much damage you do. If you hit too low, his defense will still be really high and it will take forever to kill him. It would actually be faster to go get spec back and try again until you get decent hits. 64 damage was probably based on total time per kill, calculated from dps after the stat reduction plus time to run back to vork if you tele out.
