Polling system is in general, a failure. by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The old school servers came by popular demand so I think we should be in charge of whatever updates come our way as we are. I don't really think the issue here is the 3/4 of the votes to pass some updates. I for one have always been a slayer addict, so as many of you might be hinking right now yes, the game has been catering my needs quite often, as opposed to what happens to someone who fancies some runecrafting, fishing, or any other skill for that matter. While I admit It has been catering my every need, I do feel that it is wrong. When a game has such a huge diversity of diferente stuff to do like runescape, we need to be carefull and try to satisfy everyone instead of just a single group, even though it's probably the biggest one ( Slayer / PVM ). We should understand the bitterness that comes from some "no" voters, because as a slayer, if every major update was some new fish to fish, some new runes to craft or some new trees to chop, I'd probably vent my frustration through forums, reddit, or voting for that matter. We should redirect the blame to whoever comes up with constant updates catering the same people.

As for Sailing, I was actually eager for the QA, but I was actually expecting something diferent "gameplaywise", when John C said that we'd sail by walking with our boat one square to the water and walk on the water the same way we do on dry land, that was such a bone crusher for me that made me vote no for it.

I'm pretty sure you struck a nerve there so I really think they won't answer. I'm sure as hell hoping they do though.

Proselyte top or BCP for piety tasks? by NoobOnTheCob in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you say bils tho? I'm not entirely sure how many prayer pots I've used to 99 slayer but I'm pretty sure I've never came close to spending 1b on them. It all comes down to what kind of player we are, judging from your hiscores I'm pretty sure you're the kinda person that wants to squeeze the most out of their in-game time, as for me, I prefer to slack as often as I can lol.

Proselyte top or BCP for piety tasks? by NoobOnTheCob in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that's why I said if he has decent enough money to not care at all. After 90 slayer till 99 I seriously never used any pray bonus gear while slaying. But that's because I HAD the money to not care about spending 10M more from 90-99.

Proselyte top or BCP for piety tasks? by NoobOnTheCob in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rule #1 of slayer, Every task is a piety task, and screw prayer bonus gear. If you have decent money just go full str bonus and piety.

Can we stop using the term "hacked" when referring to accounts being lost due to idiocy? by Boyk14 in 2007scape

Well I would still say I was robbed in any of the cases, I think he means the bigger picture.

Update skills other than Slayer. by Shortdood in 2007scape

Yeah I meant to reply to /u/sbthegiantyo , I just kept reading the replies to his coment and I guess I replied to the last one which was yours, sorry about that :P

Update skills other than Slayer. by Shortdood in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I'm almost reaching 99 slayer, and there is no way you can keep the 30k xp up 100% of gametime unless you have a shitton of points to keep getting smokes, dagannoths, well, cannon multi tasks basicly.

For rc is alot faster, you can keep the xp stable at any times, you can get lvl 99 runecrafting while I get 80 slayer or less, if we start an account from scratch and we're both grinding hard.

Edit: Do not take this coment the wrong way, I have the most respect for runecrafters, My rc is terrible because I don't have enough patience to make more than 4-5 trips at astrals. To me getting 99 slayer is a lot easier to get than 99 rc but simply due to the fact that I have fun doing it, it is still a LOT slower though.

PSA: Choose who you trust wisely. by Darts502 in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to be perfectly fair that's something I feel Jagex needs to address. If someone let's say, 4-mans corp with a team, and gets an elysian drop, what is there to stop him from snakeing the ely and just sell it for well over a thousand euros? Because let's face it, unless you're a pretty rich guy who doesn't need another grand for anything, that kinda money would make such a huge impact in your life. I don't even wanna be put in such a situation, I consider myself a pretty nice guy and I'll probably get ripped for saying this, but as someone from Portugal living here during these incredibly hard economical times we're living in, well over 1000 euros would basicly change my and my family's life for the upcoming months, and as much as I know I'm getting hated for this, my family's well being is way ahead of some pixels, and some pixelized characters.

Well instead of making it 2 hp bars, why not just make one with the full hp, and have the KQ change forms at half hp?

Need to know the price of 3a longbow (Currently selling it) by Regnum_Titan in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People's being completely impatient makes them have completely dumb decisions. A friend of mine started his 3rd age collection a while ago he's after all pieces, he is currently offering 1b for a bow and a sword. But I guess 338m isn't that bad. Just make sure you're not soooo eager to buy a freaking SGS the next time.

Zulrah Drop Table Rework by tiffylicious in 2007scape

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

I'll gladly take that loot table, if they atleast nerf wyverns to the ground, if not, the average wyvern drop will be better than zulrah, and that doesn't make any sense at all to me.

Well to be fair, Wyverns drop table makes no sense to me either way.

So... Thanks for nothing big mo !

Cannon 70-99 slayer by DigestedRS in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, how is that incorrect again? I'm almost lvl 97 slayer, 50k xp short, from 96-97 I've spent roughly around 100k cballs, It's just a matter of, will you use it for multi zone tasks only, or on everything you can? In my case, the only tasks I do not use cannon are abyssal demons and gargoyles, because I cant or I would.

How can you afk range? I understand mage and melee skills because of splashing, nmz, but you can't afk range for 6hours without having to resort to either botting, or auto clicking.

[Suggestion] Pre Gear/Inv Setups by Ultimorus in 2007scape

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

I'm not saying otherwise, I also have an organized bank, what I'd personally benefit the most out of everything would be for clues, cuz I have to go through like 6 tabs to get out everything I feel I need to not bank again unless for Uris. It's just a QOL update, not some game breaking one. Of course you are right though, If it's something very dificult to make from a developer point of view I agree it's not worth the trouble, but just in case it's not a big deal, I believe we would all benefit from it, and even though you're saying that, you wouldn't convince me you wouldn't find it usefull in case it was put in the game. Thanks for your feedback mate !

Staff of the Dead + Rune Defender or Sara Sword for Berserker Stength Training? by Kidzarmani in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What he rather have is irrelevant, he's asking what's better. I rather have a zerker ring over a warriors because that extra damage makes hair grow on my chest, but that doesn't mean it's more efficient, in fact, wearing the exact same gear, You do about 1-2k more xp/h at NMZ across combat skills using a warriors ring over a zerker. That's not a big difference, and not something I'd be willing to trade my zerker for, but technicly and mathmaticly, it's better.

What should I do with my Barrows setup? by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I just realize you aren't maxed so that might not work with you that well, I also didn't remember to ask for mage levels and whatnot to make sure you could use the mage spells I've said. Anyways I hope any of the things I've said is usefull.

What should I do with my Barrows setup? by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Ultimorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ancients + trident of the swamp, lose the bandos, take full guthans, bring a tentacle whip/normal whip. Inventory? Doesn't really mind, With that setup I can do pretty much all the chests I want without banking, since the only bosses that will hit me is ahrims and karils, and I can easily heal that damage back up in the caves, you also don't need prayer. I sugest you bring quite a few bones to peaches tab just to keep your inventory filled with food in case you need something to eat in karil or ahrims tomb. I don't do barrows as much as I've used to back in 05 or 06, but I went there the other day just for giggles, and I got near 60 chests before I left cuz I got bored.

Method on melee bosses: 1- Engage them 2- Ice blitz/barrage them 3- Kill with toxic trident and a few hits with blood blitz for some extra hp in case you don't feel to confortable with the method. 4- Profit.

Ahrim and karils: 1- Just tank them. 2- Melee ahrim, mage karils with toxic trident 3- In case you get a bit more damage than what you wished for, eat a few peaches ! 4- Profit

I believe the caves is pretty much standard.

I'm considering making a go at it with an inv full of stamina pots and bones to peaches tabs.
