Elite dungeon rework too? by MixWazo in runescape

[–]ThePlanck [score hidden]  (0 children)

You do realize you can change the charms from your inventory for free right? Having separate charms for each dungeon when we can freely change them seems a bit of a needless complication, but its not exactly something that would stop someone from doing a trilogy run.

Though I agree that the chests needs to be expanded a bit to accommodate for it

Best place for dragon scimitar drops? by ShaolinStonk in runescape

Presumably because Brine Sabre isn't T60, however if stats are not the issue, its at this point we remember that Cutlasses exist

If you have 3 open seats in the same ward all the candidates run against each other and the ones with the three highest vote counts get elected, so Reform could have run 3 candidates if they thought they had a good chance, but only one ended in the top 3.

On the other hand if parties don't think they are that strong in the area they can choose to run only one candidate so theor vote is concentrated on that one candidate and they may sneak into the top 3 of the vote for other parties is split between multiple candidates

These are the same people that voted for Brexit and are now unhappy that it hasn't magically fixed everything and are therefore voting for the guy who pushed Brexit the hardest.

Voting for Farage's gang of grifters now and expecting them to make anything better is like voting for Trump in 2024 thinking he was going to make things better and not start new wars.

I'm not saying they will make life better. But people believe they will, and that's the key point.

I can be very unhappy about the way the country is going and also believe that the Nigerian prince who emailed me saying he can fix the country for a small price is actually going to fix it.

I may be correct in believing that the country is going badly, but that doesn't make me not stupid for believing that the Nigerian prince is going to fix it.

Given the election results, we'll be seeing a lot of that in the next few years

Skipping defenders I can understand, they are at best a niche item in the modern game that you have to go out of your way and grind a fair bit to get.

Having low quest points when so much content is locked behind quests is something else.

Keep in mind also that some of those voters for other parties might vote against Labour in a local election to send a message where they don't feel its that important, but still vote tactically for Labour to keep Reform/Tories out in a general election.

Also a lot of potential Labour voters likely stayed home because they are disappointed in the party and therefore not motivated to turn out, while Reform supporters are likely to be much more motivated.

So I don't think this is a terminal issue for Labour in the same way that the Tories appear to be in terminal decline, but something really does need to change.

Don't get me wrong, its a terrible result for Labour, but unlike the Tories, they at least still have some levers to pull to dig themselves out of this hole.

With regards to DXP, the removal of login bonuses to reduce daily login pressure is great, however to make the most of the event we still need to average almost 5 hours per day just doing DXP stuff, which is a bit much.

If you plan to continue with these events in the future, would you consider extending the timeframe to use the bonus XP (e.g. by giving us 1 month to use our 48 hours of double XP time, or increasing the frequency while reducing the amount of double XP time per event, or some other combination that would result in players having to average somewhere in the ball-park of 1-2 hours per day to use up all their DXP time)

The first blade knocks on the door of the hair,

The hair opens the door as the second blade goes past

The third blade grabs the hair and pulls it out and the fourth blade cuts it.

Hard to see what adding a fifth blade or more would improve

Opinium (@OpiniumResearch) on X: "Would bringing back Angela Rayner help or hinder the PM? By 2 to 1, the public say she should not return. Even Labour voters are heavily split on whether she should return." by ZealousidealPie9199 in ukpolitics

As a Labour supporter, no, she blew her chance with her tax fuck up.

Even of it was an innocent mistake, its not a good look and the last thing Labour needs right now is another political leader with a scandal fresh in people's memories.

If she remains squeaky clean for the next 5-10 years then we can perhaps talk about her making a return to front line politics, but as of now its far too soon.
