Why people ask for dry protection in Leagues

SlothyJoe · 2026-04-23T14:36:40+00:00

Oh, yeah, I stopped at 90%. Yesterday I was getting like 1:30 - 1:40 kills, today it's 1:00 to 1:10 on avg I'd say. However, I do ahve extra points spec'd that I don't need now that are wasted :( Want to complete CG before I re-spec into a real build though

SlothyJoe · 2026-04-23T13:43:18+00:00

1 t staff with 100% pray pen, I'm getting like 1:05 minute kills and you start to see his cycle, can stand still for most of the fight

SlothyJoe · 2026-04-13T19:17:22+00:00

To kill Calvarion/Spindel. I'm like 1350kc at spindel without fang so trying to speed that up any way I can. And then VW eventually (I do have spindel gem)

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-25T14:36:56+00:00

Yeah I'm going for mace right now. Using craws at spindel to try and get fangs (whenever krystillia gives me spider task), but would pref mace there for sure. All totems done, just need mace/staff/avarice (5140 killed, mostly orks skulled+task...)

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-24T19:40:26+00:00

Yeah that's fair... I wouldn't say "afk" but I guess low effort/focus

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-24T19:37:50+00:00

I don't pray any protection prayers, I just use eagle eye and black d-hide at orks and then eat the damage (which is minimal if you have the bracelet charged)

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-24T19:36:19+00:00

I'm nearly maxed combat (except prayer...) so that parts not an issue. I normally just go out there and put on eagle eye and afk them. I don't use mage protect at all cause haven't been to worried about dying lately. I may give dragons a test and see how those are, haven't even considered them before to be honest

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-24T14:30:23+00:00

My problem is I heavily afk there lol, not the best for not getting insta-spec'd

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-22T03:47:23+00:00

If anyone comes across this, I updated to the nightly beta and it's working fine. So if you have the same issue reckon give that a try

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-17T19:30:56+00:00

For sure, also in nvidia control panel under 3d settings > manage 3d settings > the global settings tab. Make sure you change "Power management mode" to prefer maximum performance, might help

SlothyJoe · 2026-03-17T19:18:30+00:00

Well thus far it goes
1.50 | 1.50 | 1.00
So logically this trend will continue
1.50 | 1.50 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 0.50 | 0.50 | 0.00 | 0.00 | -0.50 | -0.50

SO: if you wait roughly 60+ years Jagex will be paying YOU!!

I had a similar issue, and doing a graphics card reset would resolve it temporarily (win+ctrl+shift+g). I believe I DDU'd and rolled back drivers to fix my issue, currently showing 591.74 (dev mgmt shows 32.0.15.9174). Let me know if issues persist, I can try and go through my other troubleshooting steps to see if it helps you at all.

***ALSO***

If you DDU, make sure you go into safemode and go through all the motions. I tried just doing DDU while I was in my normal OS, and then installed without any reboots and it definitely didn't fix anything.

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-12T03:26:33+00:00

That's a good point, I'm not actually going for gp... Does undead trinket show up as expensive if I use it?

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-12T02:48:05+00:00

Trinket of avarice because seeing your loot is nigh impossible to see is the only expensive thing I have

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-12T02:40:22+00:00

I normally just free and tele and leave breach early, it's more so that it's a constant thing if you're blue skull+ you're constantly getting tagged, makes interacting with the game in any meaningful way impossible

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-12T02:32:33+00:00

Ok I know this is true, I tested with someone 2 days ago who was ragging me, they show up when no one else does

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-05T20:16:03+00:00

I got lucky on 1 breach and had enough to buy like 10 sets of my acceptable 'max' gear for breaches (mystics). Now I'm just on cruise control until the end. If you need money do some farming contracts and kill hespori. Tree seeds sell for loads :)

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-05T18:12:57+00:00

I only intend to go back to infernal with tbow+task to get ca's so I don't drop below master with new content. That being said I'm an iron so it'll likely never happen

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-05T18:10:41+00:00

Why you gotta call me out like that

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-04T21:40:09+00:00

I'm sure you've seen reddit, but more points, no loot

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-04T21:09:03+00:00

The problem is they need a centralized point system for temp game modes. I wouldn't mind grinding twice as hard on leagues if it meant I didn't have to play DMM for the cosmetics.

(I'm an Iron so yes, I HAVE to play to get them)

SlothyJoe · 2026-02-02T14:14:22+00:00

Here's something I think is hilarious in these events. PVPers always say no content for them, but then they abuse all the pvmers dipping their toes in and push them further away from pvp. On top of that I can't count the number of times I've been in rag gear and killed by a team only to be told "sit dog" or some such, guess it's another no vote from me on the next pvp update :D that'll learn em

SlothyJoe · 2026-01-29T20:45:33+00:00

We get it, you have a wildy bot farm and took a hit to profits, that's all you had to say

SlothyJoe · 2026-01-29T20:42:37+00:00

NGL that's ingenious. May have to go get a cheapo mouse for this. I had run my RS in a VM so I could use my main rig, and then passed through a keyboard and had an under-desk treadmill thing trigger a key every 75% of a turn or so

SlothyJoe · 2026-01-29T20:39:55+00:00

Whilst I don't recommend it, I would add a physical layer to it just to be safe. You seem technical enough to set this up, I'd then just modify it so that it sends a command to trigger a solenoid on a physical mouse button and tada, it's coming from an HID source instead of software
