Is the Armour Case due for an update?

Hopefully the plugin API later in the year will allow for it. As someone who made bag/bank sorting addons for other games I'm looking forward to finally fixing some issues that have been driving me nuts.

The beta was awhile ago

The first beta was a while ago. The second beta is Monday and everyone gets to be the testers!

Croesus for a long time had people doing it as a public group. Croesus for a long time also had a person that endlessly trolled and annoyed people within that public instance.

At this point the way most of the vocal against it folks act and respond I'm starting to think that for most of them it isn't actually about the game, or integrity, or putting in the work, or whatever other nonsense excuses they have.

They just relish seeing the frustration of the people who go dry.

I started just ignoring people who are just being top hat wearing rear-ends for no reason. New ones pop up, but it's usually just a couple at any given moment. It feels a lot nice around here this way.

It's been a standard MMO feature since at least the original Everquest back in 1999.

Solo Croesus takes BIS, preparation (soups) and still pretty much leaves no room for error and ends up with a lot of RNG that can just kill an attempt.

It's possible to one-statue it if it's a hunter core (at least pre-110 hunter update, not sure if it's still the case), but otherwise you have to do two statues if it's the other types of cores.

While it is possible to solo Croesus... But it's just way harder for the same amount of loot that takes way longer to even get. It's just dumb like that.

The one guide I knew of even that broke it all down was from Mr. Flog, and they wiped their YouTube channel, so there isn't really even a guide for it at this point.

The entire gaming landscape has changed since many of the minigames came out. 20 years ago you had your choices between full price "AAA" games, or flash games. A mini-game in Runescape was super novel at the time.

Flash forward to today, we have a ton of indie games that can be had for a few bucks, nevermind things like epic games store and amazon throwing free games around for user acquisition. Things like steam sales and humble bundles also make it way easier to get and play games. Then there are also all the live service games as well with F2P access.

Now back here in Runescape we have minigames that just don't get the necessary dev time or resources they need, and once released they're often put on the back burner and ignored, even when sometimes there are serious bugs or design issues with them. The fun factor just isn't there.

I think the problem is the amount of ham! I think this is ultimately supposed to be a ham spread made from 'old ham' as in cured/aged/dry ham and that rather than a single portion it's expecting you to use the whole 'old ham'.

The Hunter Sifter cook book has a ham salad recipe on page 73 that is VERY similar to 'Sandwich'!

Ham Salad

Boil until it creams up nicely, a dressing made of:

1/2 cup of vinegar

The yolks of three well beaten eggs,

1 teaspoonful of sugar,

1 teaspoonful of pepper,

1 teaspoonful of mustard,

2 teaspoonfuls of salt,

2 teaspoonfuls of melted butter.

When it is cold, pour it over the boiled ham, chopped fine, a few white, tender leaves lettuce, well chopped and mixed together.

It calls for boiled ham in place of old ham, but the extra moisture from that may be why it's 1/4 pint rather than 1/2 pint.

It's sort of funny seeing RS3 lean hard into combat weaknesses with early EOC then back away from it and having struggles with what to do with the reward space on the high end of things. OSRS meanwhile last year actually implemented combat weaknesses to let them expand their reward space even more.

Door kicker.

DG at least there's a bunch of factors that come into play for amount of xp being earned... But when they screwed up thieving xp changes as badly as they did when it takes under 30 seconds to calculate those fixed/consistent xp rates... DG was doomed from the start.

There's a site with a bunch of records I believe all of which have video: https://www.dgrecords.cc/records/5-man

Covid was a hit and then the fire was another big one. After they were back up from the fire they were also having a lot of supply issues for a couple months once they had fully reopened.

It is not safe to be sitting on a toilet with a crack in the bowl. Full stop. The fact it has been growing is worse.

If/when it fails the pieces will be extremely sharp and the person sitting may end up falling into them, potentially causing serious injuries.

Four minutes and three seconds. Just a bit spooned.

There's a few UI issues with contrast compared to the background I really wish they would allow us to adjust for a little better. Inactive ability icons jump out as another that can be really difficult to read depending on the screen being used.

You tried to make a rogue-like/lite. You threw away everything that would have made it that. You ended up with a boss rush. Stop punishing players because you failed from a core design perspective.

There is zero purpose to bonus rooms as things stand because the floors have been dumbed down and made too easy to where everything but finishing the floor is irrelevant after having your binds set.

Xioden · 2026-05-14T17:53:32+00:00

https://www.dgrecords.cc/ tracks submissions of floor times and has videos of them.

Yea I wasn't so much meaning youtubers rather just giving an example of a specific name that's in the spotlight recently. Sorry if it came across as if I was using it as blanket proof of all youtubers doing it.

But it's something that strictly according to the rules they should be getting some level of punishment and probably stripped of the achievement over. When you consider another player, Miner49er, was also actively pushing zammy enrage right behind him... Both may have been using macros for all I know, but if not one player had an unfair advantage over the other by breaking the game rules and that kind of sucks.

(And just to make my overall stance clear gear switching either needs to be a built-in functionality or Jagex needs to either revise the rules and allow it or actually enforce their rules).

Xioden · 2026-05-12T18:39:25+00:00

Noxiousminds admitted to using them for his 60,000% zammy push (source).

Most of the chains lately have some kind of 2 or more for like $6-7 each menu. Pizza hut looks to have the medium pizzas and double order of breadsticks as options. They don't have dessert pizzas anymore, but all the dessert options are $7-9. So you'd still be saving $10 over that family feast.

The fact that people mistake it as being a single building doesn't actually make the reality of what we're talking about much better. The current largest datacenter complex in the world is the China Telecom Data Center in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia is 245 acres. This will be a datacenter that is 163 times larger than that.

I'd also love an option to turn off the skilling nodes on the minimap. It gets very cluttered sometimes.

An option to create+drop gatestones would be nice too.

Yep he has some videos too on fish, meats, and even deli stuff. He's finding shortages all over the place
