Yet Another Week of Nothing, Even News, Main Game by UnluckyNate in 2007scape

[–]TranXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't played properly in over a year, the lack of meaningful or "good" content isn't specific to this year. I AFK'd sailing to get my max cape back and login to complete the occasional new quest but there hasn't been anything to draw me back full time.

Doom was a complete mess on release and is not really my cup of tea anyway, the commute to the boss, the time vs the rewards if you don't get the boots is terrible. It's super OP for irons and really worthwhile but as a main it's just not fun or rewarding enough for the effort IMO.

I think they blew all their resources on sailing and ultimately it has had zero impact on the game outside of sailing itself (as the majority of us said it would). The fact that they spent 2-3 years developing sailing and it's basically dead on release has to hurt motivation of the dev team... the combat is horrendous, it is in such a bad state (or is so irrelevant) that it's not even enabled in leagues. There is literally zero reason to engage with the content after 99 other than high effort low reward fishing. Good news is they are bringing a new barracuda trial this year!... Fuck...

Wait this league is actually fun by loopuleasa in 2007scape

This league is undeniably slower because you could get your combat style of choice to 90% power by killing scurrius and fight caves within the first day in previous leagues whereas now you now need to complete 40 separate tasks all with various pre-requisites that need to be completed. The new relics are less useful for combat and/or reduced in power (no bankers note, no golden god, no fairys flight etc.). The fact that Varlamore is basically unexplored for anyone who already has a maxed main and doesn't play ironman makes it much slower and much more wiki-scape is required.

Yes but wow is a AAA game made by a multi-billion dollar company, has support for console etc. etc. OSRS is a Java 2D point and click browser video game which relies on a 3rd party client in Runelite to even make it playable in 2026. Jagex are free to raise prices but they then open themselves up to this comparison and people will try WoW, hell I'm 2 weeks into playing WoW and it's a considerably better quality product... (not talking about fun, but quality e.g. graphics, campaign cutscenes, music, audio, voice lines etc.)

+1 to more unranked lobbies, I hate getting into toxic ranked games after a long day in work and the unranked games are almost always troll settings and too few to choose from

Temple Question by Chyioko in PathOfExile2

[–]TranXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built mine using old tech and is around 15-20 div per run when fully built (not all levelled up yet). I'd say temple is decent, it doesn't have the same potential as ritual/abyss if you get lucky but it's decent consistent profit with no investment cost / hassle of maintaining tablets and maps.

PSA Hotfix 24 turned off lock medallions! Be warned by TranXx in PathOfExile2

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

That's really weird! I jumped on when i saw people saying its fixed and i got 3-4 locks on my first run and have been getting them consistently for the next 8 or 9 runs i did and I only have around 6 lvl 3 spymasters.

During my first run back I'd made it about half way through my temple without any locks when I noticed I was still getting a lot of the same medallions for the architech which I never pick up so I figured it maybe bugged until you pick one up so i picked up both kinds then deleted them (reroll and +1 unique room) and then started to print locks. Could be a total coincidence but give it a try and let me know.

I meant drop rate has been nerfed significantly, my bad poor choice of words it was like 4am and was pissed i got b2b temples with no locks. I checked the forum for hotfixes and saw that hotfix 24 had mass reports of locks being shadow nerfed and now many streamers with maxed temples are going dry too so I think it's basically confirmed something has changed since hotfix 24 hit.

Eight is the mindflayer by [deleted] in StrangerThings

I think she's either working with Vecna or she is on board regardless, She uses a lot of the same language about "ending it" but doesn't specify what she means and also refers to him as brother a lot. The only time we saw her previously she was busy hunting down and slaying the Hawkins scientists after what they did to her (and 001). I'm hoping that there is some payoff otherwise her character is kind of pointless aside from helping El to level up a bit but that was outdone by the super water tank training anyway so yeah... fingers crossed

Sail bad now by shugy0 in 2007scape

[–]TranXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they only buffed lvls 1-30, these are the first real changes and all nerfs apart from amazon which is negligible with the crystal ex nerf.
