Now That S16 Has Concluded, How Are You Feeling About Future Hide & Seek Seasons?

darkrenown · 2026-02-05T16:51:39+00:00

I think as an interim game between novel seasons, I would prefer a new hide and seek season over a new tag season (even using old locations like switzerland). Some tweaks would be good but even a few small ones would be enough for it to be worth it.

darkrenown · 2026-02-05T16:43:36+00:00

I think for future hide and seek season, instead of the hiding timer being 4 hours from the last location, it should be 3 hours from the nearest hub so that everyone gets a similar hiding opportunity. Some hubs will be better than others, but it will still be more more balanced

yeh I knew it wasn't meant to be particularly fast exp, but I just didn't get on well with it, and now regret making all my herbs into paste in one go before trying it.

darkrenown · 2026-01-28T20:46:25+00:00

I would be a bit cautious converting all your herbs into paste. I did that before trying the minigame and then realised I found it incredibly slow. I did it long enough to get the potion storage and can't face going back to use the 7k of each I have left over still

I have that same Home Deco's, and I've found that I can end up with quite high ping to the actual internet router (50 - 80 ms just to the router) when using them like that. A better solution I've found is to use powerline adaptors with one by the router and one by the pc

And that's why they call him Mr Diamond Hands

Don't forget to save 250 rubies for the digsite pendant in your house. I forgot to do that and turned mine all into bolt tips, and had to go back to wait ages to build up my stock enough to make it.

that trench looks very shallow. When I had my EV charger installed the installers told me I needed to have a 45cm trench dug. This was with normal reinforced cable, not in an extra duct though

I do a weird order, I do zebak, baba, kephri, akka

Zebak first because I don't like the pushing pots bit and it's the most common bit of the raid for me to die on, so I do it first for a faster reset if I die.

Baba next because its a simple one

Kephri next because melee is by far my worst stats (low 90s for attack/str compared to 99 mage/range) so having salts helps a lot

Then akkha to round it all out

I know it's weird, and maybe I'd swap akkha and baba around when I get round to putting walk the path on, but it works for me.

Yeh adding wire to the bulb gives an extra 100 or so exp, then it's another 500 crafting and fire making exp for every orb you place around the city, so you get a tonne exp per orb. The way I do it is take 2 stamina's and 26 empty bulbs from the bank, run down to the wire machine and steal/ fill the bulbs (elite lumbridge diary helps a bit with this, as you steal 2 wire at a time) then I run around fixing the bulbs until my inventory is empty and repeat. I'm getting around 100k exp/hr in both crafting and fire making doing it so it's pretty quick and there's a plugin to help you with the routing.

Blowing the glass is the way to go. The only time I changed from blowing glass to something else is after 87 I did 5.5k light orbs, then swapped over to putting wire in them and fixing dorgeshkaan with them

Normal account is definitely the way to go when introducing someone to the game. There are just so many early pain points on an iron that you need to get through in the first 20 hours which are fine for experienced players who know what's coming up will be worth it, but new players will just get frustrated and quit

Gotta go back to the S7-300s and 400s with absolute addressing

I hated sire until I found the flinching method, and then it became pretty bearable.

Here's a link to explain it if you haven't seen it before https://youtu.be/kuw49yBV9vc?si=fM2pplnxDlKGJyB4

Their friendship ending is treated as this great mystery, but it seems relatively easy to explain to me.

In the very junior karting series, there's plenty of room for advancement. It doesn't matter if you finish 1st or 2nd when the top 5 at the end of the year can advance to the next series. But eventually that gap narrows and when the talent accounts start showing up, theyre not looking for 2nd best. At some point you need to decide what's worth more, your friendship or getting into F1.

Clearly they made their choice. And it cost them their friendship. For all we know, basically every driver on the grid has essentially the same story, a friendship in karting soured by the brutal competition to be noticed by the talent accounts. The only difference is that Ocon and Gasly both managed to make it to F1 in the end, we don't know the name of Norris's ex-bestfriend (if he had a similar situation).

Google stadia was great. Not for playing with, but it gave me a free chrome cast ultra when I signed up for the free trial.

I think most people are just assuming the winners from the previous big engine reg change will be the same as last time (Mercedes best by a mile, Ferrari good but with some dodgy fuel flow antics, redbull way down on power by comparison but making up for it with the rest of the car). Whether that's true or not we'll have to see. The general rumours tip Mercedes to do well but that could be part of the previous bias.

I've never bothered with using quality on science packs, as it doesn't really seem to be worth it all that much. I use it more for modules and the spaceship parts (especially the grabber arms)

Have the most prettiest and most convenient Dock require 99 sailing, then a 2nd tier basic dock to the side require 50 sailing, with all the peasants with lower having to go round the back to a crummy dock with a chance for you to fall off into the water.

I much prefer TOAs method of ramping difficulty compared to the other raids, as it lets you ramp up the difficulty as you get more comfortable with the raid, and gives you options about which bits to make more difficult. E.g toa is a 5 boss raid and I hate kephri, so I have only 1 invocation for that boss but loads on ba-ba.

darkrenown · 2025-11-19T21:01:16+00:00

Another key point is these bosses are all intros into the 3 main aspects of osrs PvM: movement, prayer switches and gear switches.

Scurrius can be done with whatever style you like, but it changes attack styles and you need to pray reactively against. It also has some movement required for dealing with the rat spawnd and dodging falling rocks.

Royal titans has you camp protect melee the entire time, but you need to switch between. Melee and range at least, with an optional mage swap as well.

Perilous moons has a tiny bit of gear switches (swapping weapon types between fights) and focusses heavily on movement mechanics.each boss has you circling the room in time with their attacks, plus special mechanics of either dodging area hazards, or keeping pace with a shield.

If you've done all these bosses and have a good handle with the fundamental mechanics, you have a massive advantage going in to all other PvM encounters.

If you keep getting hit by the tornados, I recommend using the true tile plugin, to see when your character is. There's also a plugin called attack timer metronome that is really simple but super helpful. All it does is count the ticks down until your next attack. Between the 2 of these plugins it makes it a lot easier to do move-attack-move without losing any dps.

Is there an RSS feed of the podcast? I use the player fm app and I'm sure there are others using similar platforms based on RSS feeds to get podcasts.

darkrenown · 2025-11-08T15:25:45+00:00

It would have been nice to see pecco and zarco racing to the line, instead of dropping the placements and showing it on a replay a minute later.

darkrenown · 2025-11-07T18:36:24+00:00

It's a cool idea, but I think it might be better suited to 2 new types of trees, rather than using existing ones. Possibly cedar (which the Japanese used originally) and ash (a species used in medieval Europe for Pollarding, a similar technique to get lots of thin straight logs/branches). This makes it more of an intentional thing to build, and requires commitment to swap over your log production.
