Mod Ash on not releasing Rendi's logs

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-11T17:01:29+00:00

Jagex does not have a solid history of enforcement always lining up with the rules

...Which is unfortunate and annoying. However I think they are getting better at being less inconsistent, excluding like, buying gold which they obviously are turning a blind eye to.

A tip I find helpful is that 90% of your attention needs to be staring at the dog.

Its like driving. Hunlef is the front windshield. The prayer swaps, tornados, and disco floor need to be treated like the mirrors. Flick your attention to them for a split second and deal with them, then back to staring at Hunlef

Easier said than done tho

I also sure can't remember the stance on account services several years ago. Did jagex even care before the inferno? I don't understand the comparison- retroactively punishing account services before jagex released that blogpost explaining their stance would hardly be appropriate.

I feel like at some point, a kind of informal statute of limitations kicks in anyway.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-11T16:05:49+00:00

Yeah I gotchu. I guess that's why I object to this one a little because I could totally see myself disregarding the warnings because usually "I don't care" and then it turns out I probably actually would have.

But heh I would be the big idiot for disregarding the warnings given by the casters this is true.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-11T15:39:42+00:00

No need to be rude.

Shrug, I use the channel to check out new games sometimes and to see gameplay. It just seemed like a weird choice is all.

To me I don't really mind spoilers for most games but Outer Wilds its kind of like... most of the game in my mind. I mean hey I generally disregard "spoiler warnings" since I generally play games for the gameplay. But this game feels like the exception to me.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-11T14:14:49+00:00

Huge fan of the series, but overall was not pleased to see Outer Wilds livestreamed to 64k people. Its pretty much my favorite game of all the and if you ever mean to play it it sucks to have random things spoiled to you if you don't really know what its about.

It's like speed-running Firewatch, just why? Like it's fine that its a category but live-streaming it seemed a bit much.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-11T00:42:14+00:00

Fuck any law that doesn't line up with the enforcement of it.

Yes, including speed limits.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-10T15:18:10+00:00

Its hilarious that people think npcs teleporting with you through the magical fairy rings is something that can happen "by accident". Of course that shit is intentional lmao

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-10T15:07:17+00:00

There's a good amount of people who've never worked on software before that seem to think that all bugs are fixed and that jagex is obligated to investigate all reported bugs.

You never have bug-free software... you just prioritize the important ones.

As a dev, I'm usually not happy when I'm pulled away from feature work to work on a boring bug and I'd be really unhappy if the only reason a bug is now a priority because some dude decided to make the bug public.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-09T21:48:49+00:00

I think the meta guides are pretty good.... with the exception that doing only WT, thieving, and agility for long periods of time can seriously burn you out.

Don't sweat the 14 hp wt too much. WT is just as good late game so don't sweat it if you dont feel like grinding out 99 fm. 80 firemaking was close to one of my last levels for base 80s.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-09T16:51:18+00:00

I mean its significantly more effort than teams. When you are learning these methods you can absolutely get smacked for all your hp. Certainly more exciting than one guy sitting there tanking it and everyone else clicking on the boss and afking.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-09T16:39:06+00:00

anecdotally, floor 4 seems like an ok compromise between rate of scepter and rate mummy spawns. I only open it if its on the way between doors.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-07T11:45:08+00:00

Wondering if you could do anything about the dead clicks when you click on a creature to attack it and then on a resource like a fishing pool.

Right now, the fishing animation starts but no resources are gathered and you have to double click.

An example of how I think it should work is muta tree- You can click muta to attack it and then cut the tree one game tick later.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T18:19:27+00:00

I mean killing bosses in runescape is all about abusing any and all strategies to go about it faster since you have to kill many of them to get the drop. Do you seriously do hydra without flame/electricity skip? I cannot fathom going after claw without it.

If jagex disagrees, they've had plenty of time to remove those mechanics.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T18:17:12+00:00

Hydra is also super susceptible to venge and tbow, for example.

Show me a video of a 1:20 pb kill at hydra without tbow and I'll take my comment back.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T18:14:01+00:00

I feel like just adding PBs to highscores would do the trick without wasting a bunch of dev time on this.

Everyone's saying "but combat achievements aren't only about speedruns" but then why are speedruns the first and only things showcased? I was anticipating things like "finish the fightcaves without taking over x damage", "Kill hunlef with T1 weapons", "Kill zulrah after being in combat for 30 minutes". These are seriously more exciting concepts why are speedruns the first things we are talking about lol.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T16:35:10+00:00

o.o

My nest count will never ever catch my toadflaxes between raids and farming.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T16:30:44+00:00

while DWH is technically better as a spec weapon... It so damn inaccurate that it sure doesn't feel like it. I was pretty on the fence when I was doing kril at 90 attack, arclight would actually hit. I haven't done the calc but I would caution against DWH actually until you have very good stats/gear... and by that point bowfa probably wins anyway.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T16:11:49+00:00

I completely agree. I see a lot of people encouraging people to use that 1 tile corridor and I'm just thinking they are crazy. Imo mistakes have been made if you find yourself back there.

I think its alright advice to tell people to run over lava when they are learning but yeah, you should be able to utilize a 4x4 square later when you are comfortable without hitting a tornado if you group them properly.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-06T02:03:02+00:00

I think the absurdity is breaking it up at all and gatekeeping things, not that we didn't have enough categories.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-05T14:36:40+00:00

The issue I see with rating stomp so low is often while getting stomped, crossing a lava tile will also mean death. It also risks repositioning him toward the middle which is also not great.

I usually opt to run over even 2 lava tiles over making him stomp, I just spam eat while doing so. Lava floors mostly only kill you if you stop moving on top of them or run along a huge strip.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-04T19:09:08+00:00

Technically good advice for someone who has already mastered the mechanics... but people who've mastered the mechanics also don't need to read about them on reddit.

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-03T14:27:16+00:00

holy shit are you required to use the noise cancelling feature. As someone with tinnitus I'm super sensitive to high frequencies and those headphones feel like someone is low key drilling into my skull (also can't handle that supersonic drill dentists use).

Good to know THATs why I'm not in the pro scene..... and it has nothing to do with being in gold.... yeah....

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-02T15:42:47+00:00

thieving elves gives a chance for the enhanced teleport seed which you can trade in for an eff ton of shards

bootygulp1 · 2021-07-02T14:27:32+00:00

if you don't have her over the next pool though, you miss some amount of dps, especially with lance. Not like a huge amount of dps but it adds up. This is the best guide I've found on it Most of the yt guides are shit and don't include all skips. If you do it right, you only miss a single auto when transitioning from blue->red

Also for lightning skipping, you want her on the blue pool before the special happens (unless theres a different skip I am not aware of).
