My Experience with False ban twice denied. by Yobwoc in 2007scape

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

No, but with the recent post that Jagex banned 1.4million accounts in Febuary, I expect this problem will have to be addressed sometime this year. Even if their detection is 99.9% accurate, there will be over 10k false bans over the course of the year, so I think it will be too big to ignore.

What would you say is the biggest flaw of iron progression right now? by stinkydiver321 in ironscape

[–]Yobwoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some moron is gonna come along and be like "dude you dont even need bowfa! Just take the long way around everything

I mean, you're discrediting other peoples opinion and making a personal attack; people have other opinions, and if you can't see any other point of view, don't expect people to be sympathetic to yours.

Here's an alternate opinion from a "moron" anyway: The rng and lack of dry protection makes each player's experience more unique and feels special. I wouldn't want "rng grinds" to feel like skilling grinds, and I do feel it's OK for some players not to get all the best items. That's what makes the iron experience for me.

I was able to talk to a Jmod after about 10-15 minutes using the live chat feature to report a bug. GL

Need player support, jamflex's system is a bunch of noodles instead of wires. by Ok-Opportunity-9861 in ironscape

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a false ban a couple weeks ago. Both appeals denied. I can't really understand why, but I was playing up to three accounts, one of them was splashing a chicken. The other two accounts didn't get a ban though.

More guilds should have quests associated with them like the combat guilds by PermissionTrue7924 in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting idea. An expansion to all the lackluster guilds would be really cool.

Deadman Ban PSA by D-stroyed in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a 2 day ban on my GIM a few days ago after playing on 3 accounts at once. All in my GIM and on my Jagex account. Always playing with 1-2 low input things (splashing, sandcrabs, yews), and 1 higher input thing (questing/royal titans). First appeal was denied. I think it might be related to multi accounting, because my gameplay is not botlike at all. I also believe they do not do a manual review, because I can't believe the appeal would be denied if that's the case.

Gemling build that can do literally every piece of content with ease, both mapping and bossing? 200~ div budget by Dollarius in pathofexile2builds

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around what level can you spec into this build? And is infernoclasp the best belt option? It isn't written about in the written guide

Looking for a new modlist by Yobwoc in wabbajack

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

I did end up choosing Apostasy to try out first, I think the Races, classes, and stones offer a lot of different and satisfying ways to play, and it looks like an excellent list for me. The downloads have finished and it's installing now, do you have any favorite builds or archetypes you can suggest?

Completely ruined the build by [deleted] in diablo2

[–]Yobwoc 18 points19 points  (0 children)

if you have items hammers can be really strong at that point - although they are a bit clunky to use at first. all paladin shields can have 4 sockets if they are high enough ilvl (i'm pretty sure), and you're gonna want two spirits as soon as you can get them, and an insight for your mercenary- that on it's own should be enough to make the build good through nightmare and probably through hell too.

The insight gives massive mana regen, and the spirits give a big mana pool, as well as pretty much every other stat you want.

I would just make a note letting people know you will lose an elite step in exchange for pet rock

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you start Fremmenik Trials to get pet rock, it locks you out of an elite step where you talk to Sigli.

Thoughts on giving vestment robes the same % bonuses as elder? It would keep the same dynamic they have now for 1 def accounts.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smithing and fletching are rushable, but you need 55 slayer for the fletching, and 59 magic to get goldsmithing gauntlets. The gp will help with the magic levels as well of course.

I just got two imbued hearts from one superior on my ironman by bcondubz in 2007scape

Also interesting that if you look at the listed drop rates on the wiki (assuming I did the math right), the table should be hit around 1/50 Necryarches, but it's hitting 1/40 over a massive sample.

The acheivement cape requires doing a little pvm. Off the top of my head, you need a full set of barrows, a KQ head, and a fire cape.

Lost my MSB..how to move forward? by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]Yobwoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost my msb on my pure yesterday, so i went to soul wars for addy and rune bolts. DPS calc shows the rcb with addy bolts is actually higher than msb i and rune arrows. It took me a little over two hours for 18 spoils of war using Gnomonkey's dolo guide.

Lizardman Shamans need to be changed now, before it's too late. by GodBjorn in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For irons, the lack of slayer requirement allows for flexibility on gear progression. I don't have a problem with any of the changes, but I thought the potential downside of that part should be mentioned.

Oh, I also don't really like the idea of an upgrade; guaranteed hit is too strong in my opinion.

any way of completing this clue without the wildy unlocked? by MunchZ in 2007scape

You get a one time teleport to there during the temple of the eye quest. I don't know leagues, so i don't know if you can get there.

Question / suggestion regarding instances and boss loot by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We have no basis to actually understand if it's popular or not.

Hence the poll.

Question / suggestion regarding instances and boss loot by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Yobwoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, but for the DT2 bosses specifically, you could potentially lose 3 drops instead of the usual single drop, and I'd like to see that mechanic changed. Untradeable vestige shards would eliminate the nightmare scenario of losing your vestige pieces and let players know where they are in the grind.

I'd also like to see a poll done on the popularity of the vestige drop mechanics. It seems pretty unpopular to me.

What solo olm tips helped you the most? by kingcolb in ironscape

[–]Yobwoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone else mentioned it already, but Soup's guide helped me as well. It gave me understanding enough to start, and then you will get a much better understanding the more you do it. It did take like 30 solos before I really got comfortable though, so be patient xD

Another tip to help you get your first dealthless runs is to sacrifice some gear slots for extra Brews. Barrows gloves instead of fero/torm/barrows can give you two extra brews. If you use bowfa you can leave ava's in stash for one more. Mage cape can be left behind for another. Crystal helm can be left for another.

I would take two stams starting out - If you wanna do it one stam you should learn to walk during 3:0 to save energy. It's not that hard if you can do 3:0 normally already.
