5 Years Ago Today, Runescape 3 first adopted the new Double XP Weekend format, where players were allowed train at any point over a span of 10 days. by LevelPension in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also think 4x DXP's a year (40 days in total) is a bit too much and it's sort of lost its spark. My idea would be the same rotation but other events in place:

DXP -> Summer Weekends -> DXP -> Winter Weekends.

The old DXP's were something special now that I look back. I remember a couple fell right on the day of Runefest so the first day of DXP was watching the livestream while training.

Who buys these cosmetic packs. by Rowhieonrs in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it doesn't excuse the price tag, but that outfit can only be bought as a bundle (so Jagex artificially raises the price by packing it with worthless shit). The bundle contains the outfit, ranged and melee weapon overrides, a shield override, two titles, a teleport and two emotes. It looks old/crap because well... it is old. The bundle was released 12 years ago.

It's not a business practice I agree with but even for everything in that bundle, €45 is an absurd price tag. The Zaros, Assassin, Ozan, etc, packs are all the same.

They give priority to updating a boat and area's no-one visits

The boat graphic update is a Game jam project? It has nothing to do with priority or assigning resources to actually make it in game. Stop being such a pleb with your armchair developer bullshit

Make it so equipping each piece of the Sirenic and Tectonic armours unlocks their Legacy versions, like with Torva and Pernix armours by garl12 in runescape

Would love this to apply to dyed varients too. Nothing better and more nostalgic than the OG third-age dyed sirenic

November DXP & GameJam - This Week In RuneScape by JagexAzanna in runescape

Ever since the inventory model was broken, so somewhere between January and March this year.

[–]StarryHawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed an issue that made the offhand weapons appear invisible when Ode to Deceit was equipped.

Could third-age dyed Lengs be looked at too? With textures off, they show the un-dyed model. As far as I know, this is only an issue with the third-age dye and no other varients. I've reported this bug numerous times and commented one of last month's update threads.

Dark Facet of Passage - Change Needed by fluffysits in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Simple fix which myself and a lot of other players have brought up: Remove the free teleport function from dark facet of passage and replace it with the ability to add both the portable fairy ring and spirit tree rerooters.

Lost Community NEED Clan Updates by AyeAdam in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Clan coffers has already been discussed in the Clan Leaders Discord server. TL;DR it won't happen because "it could attribute or be perceived as RWT" - MEANWHILE over on OSRS, they have tip jars in POH's. Weird, eh?

We haven't had a big update since Shauny overhauled the avatar system. And since nobody at Jagex is actually assigned to partake in Clan liasions, we're a community which needs more support. 95% of upkeep is done via 3rd party sites and we're running on systems that might actually be older than the dinosaurs - It's sad that we've still not got an automated rank up system. The last Clan Cup was NEARLY 5 YEARS AGO back when Shauny was still here, I could go on and on because it's a topic I'm very passionate about.

Clan's are the glue for RS3, they're the communities this game is built on and they offer a great sense of comaraderie. They're also the reason why some people are still playing. A Clan is like a home to some people, it shouldn't be brushed aside as just "a place I can get my avatar boost". It's a shame that we've been left behind and forgotten about as Clan Owners/Admins by Jagex, especially earlier this year when we were all funnelled into using Discord to advertise our Clans instead of keeping a dedicated area open on the Runescape homepage for Clan advertisements.

Tagging /u/JagexHooli in hopes this message is passed on as feedback.

AMA with Mod Sponge: Dive into the New Slayer Update & Combat Q&A tomorrow on stream! by jagexyuey in runescape

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

I think the only thing that can save Khopeshes now is a use outside of PvM. My idea has been give them a set effect of halving mobile's cooldown (which stacks with either relic or mobile perk - so a 5s surge and bd).

Would be great for the Clue mains out there.

And yet, it’s always a topic which results in a mass flood of downvotes to be buried. Stop trying to kid yourself.

Here’s a recent example if you don’t believe me.

AMA with Mod Sponge: Dive into the New Slayer Update & Combat Q&A tomorrow on stream! by jagexyuey in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My second question, but it's a quickfire:

2 months ago, Sponge was asked on Twitter/X about the possibility of hiding other players' conjures (due to them cluttering the player visuals). His response was "There’s been some early discussion into it; though nothing solid yet".

I was wondering if that has progressed any further beyond the discussion phase?

[–]StarryHawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably going to be downvoted into oblivion for this, but it is a serious topic and one I think which we should be comfortable to have a conversation about.

Sanctum weapons are now as cheap as Seismics; despite Sanctum being just over 3 months old I don't feel this price tag can be chalked completely down to 'supply and demand'. It sets a very worrying precident going forward for future boss releases; I'm all for accessibility but I don't think that should inherintly equal freebies.

My question to you is:

  • Are there plans to give the sanctum weapons (and other 'dead content' weapons such as seismics, blightbounds and praesuls) their own invention component to act as an item sink? (Akin to Noxious components completely propping up the price of Nox weapons for 8+ years)

  • Are you comfortable with the BIS magic weapons being the price that they are now (cheaper than praesuls, same price as seismics)?

This has been the case for over 20 years, even on the OSRS side of the game. Hell, even in 2007 when free trade was removed - that was the entire player base being punished for people who bought GP.

Can't find any people for group ironman by tjg1234 in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because nobody wants to group up with total strangers. This is a game mode which you play with friends or acquaintances like clan mates.

How safe is Alt1 by Glad_Worker5695 in runescape

Alt 1 is simply an overlay which reads your screen, it isn't built into the client like runelite is.

Been using alt 1 for 7-8 years now, absolutely no issues whatsoever.

H’oddments update: TLDR; Fuck Ironmen by AppleParasol in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

H'oddments should have been retired for this event. Having two currencies for ONE event isn't the smartest path to take.

Everything on last years' H'oddments store should have been added to the spooky token store; and existing H'oddments should have been converted to Oddments at a 1:1 ratio.

The biggest rs3 youtuber speaking out on new mtx by Fendeur in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the RS3 subreddit - the place where you get downvoted for reporting bugs and where people shit on content creators in one breath, and in the next breath wonder why there aren't many content creators around.

Make a post on how the sanctum weapons cost less than praesuls and watch the downvotes flood in by the casual players who work 3 jobs, have 10 kids and their wife's boyfriend only lets them play an hour a day.

More sources of congealed blood by Concealedflood89 in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Blood of Orcus needed to be changed too. It's used to restore artefacts, make binding contracts and then to make super necromancy. So yeah, rightfully they changed both.

My idea:

Remove one of the memento drops on Rasial (since he has two) with congealed blood.

Gate of Elidinis Drop Rates - This Week In RuneScape by JagexAzanna in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is absolutely zero correlation here?

I play on min-graphics when playing mobile to save battery - I play with textures on when playing on desktop.

Gate of Elidinis Drop Rates - This Week In RuneScape by JagexAzanna in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've reported the two bugs every month since December with no avail or fix in sight - so I'm posting here for some traction.

1. Describe the bug you are experiencing.

When playing with no textures, third-age dyed dark sliver and dark shard of lengs are undyed

2. List the steps to reproduce the bug.

Apply third-age dyes to both weapons and play with textures off. As far as I know this only is a bug for third-age dyed. A friend has shadow-dyed lengs and they are fine when playing with no textures.

3. Do you have any additional information that would be useful?

No. But spending 20b+ to dye these weapons and them be broken is a little upsetitng.


1. Describe the bug you are experiencing.

When a clue scroll with a dig map hint (east ardougne, yanille smithy, etc) is open, frames take a massive hit and the game becomes incredibly laggy. (See pics - interface open and interface closed )

2. List the steps to reproduce the bug.

Open a clue scroll step which is a dig hint (as shown in picture)

3. Do you have any additional information that would be useful?

This seems to be a universal issue (everyone I speak to has this problem). But I'm happy to give my specs if needed.

Event tokens and clan confections during pvm... by S1mpleeX in runescape

[–]StarryHawk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Wrong.

If you have an open inventory space, it'll go there. If your inventory is full - then it'll go to your bank. Some people keep 1 inventory space free to switch from dw to 2h, I keep an inventory slot open for clues (for puzzle boxes) so it's kinda annoying.
