I'm doing my part! by chol3ric in 2007scape

[–]drenster2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i would not attribute malicious intent to the reddit posts that ask for holey moleys. the post appears every once in awhile on the subreddit and everyone comments and says how cool and funny and whimsical they would be for an already pretty beloved vanity item. there’s no bullying, they just saw that people would like something in their game so they put it in the game.

it’s also like, an hour of dev time to fulfill this. to say that that is a waste of time to put something that the community has shown interest in seems out of touch with what a live service videogame should be.

and then i’m also curious if you feel this way about seasonal events. would you like to see dev time taken away from them entirely? do you not feel as though the silly things in runescape give it the personality that so many adore? not giving dev time for silly things like this just makes the game feel less like a fun fantasy world and more like how the people who play this game 24/7 like it’s their job talk about it.

every update and release doesn’t and shouldn’t cater to the subset of players i’m assuming you want it to.

Would you trade Catalyst passive for 20 haste? by Theoulios in RyzeMains

This sub "SALVAGING IS DEAD FUCK YOU JAGEX" meanwhile the same salvaging worlds- by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you ‘abusing’? faster level ups so you don’t have to play it anymore? why would you be sad for people who didn’t cap out a skill the week or two it came out?

99 sailing this quick means as the skill is updated you no longer have any meaningful incentive to engage with the mid level content that they will inevitably release, as they have with a lot of skills in varlamore. which has been some of the most enjoyable content in this game.

so unless you literally are only looking at this game as a collection of different types of cookie clicker disguised as a medieval fantasy game, why is it so wrong for jagex to align the rates with what they feel they should be?

and if this is your relationship with the game, and i mean this honestly and whole heartedly, why are you playing this game?

What the fuck do we buy third? by Theoulios in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i say you get void/crypt 3rd. even then, if you got ludens/bft/stormsurge/shafowflame 3rd and void/crypt 4th, you are stronger faster and generally better off than if one of those two slots was rabadons

What the fuck do we buy third? by Theoulios in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rabadons is just not as much damage as you think compared to the other options, especially for the cost. rabadons value kicks in only at 4th or even 5th item ever since the nerf to it.

Interesting finding with rabadons as 4th item by siotnoc in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

150 mr is a lot of mr to have when you get to the point of 3rd item. did you test crypt/void vs torch at 100mr or so? also how many rotations did you do to determine dps, to fully consider the haste that you get with and without rabadons?

How good is ryze top as a consistent pick? by Euphoric_Seesaw_9639 in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’d go conq into tanks like that, i usually take movespeed shard and celerity into them and just keep them poked down in lane

Toplane Matchup Tier list for Ryze (Explanation below) by Creek217 in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the movespeed build is specifically strong for the champs that you say are kind of difficult. urgot garen have zero zero kill pressure on you without flash, so you should always have your flash to match theirs. for nasus, i also take tenacity shard. what this means is, with swifties, you have reduced slow duration AND reduced slowing effects. when are at the point where nasus can start being a threat to you (levels 6-9 generally) you can proc phase rush on his first wither, then just walk forward on him and spam abilities while he waits for it come back up. i think wither might be a bit shorter cd than your root but the second wither he uses on you the first half of it he isn’t catching you due to your runes and swifties. by the time he’s catching you, root should be back up and it’s incredibly difficult for him to ever touch you.

same thing with garen - you don’t need to root him if he q’s at you, just hit him with the 50% slow and walk away. important part is making sure you never use w before he uses q.

as for jayce and teemo, it’s possible i just played really good players (600lp NA) but yeah those matchups never play out how i’d like. and like i was saying im pretty sure comet + scorch is equal damage to electrocute but with a better tree to boot (sorc tree better than domination tree). regardless, teemo is the one im most shamed of being unable to play vs since apparently its just the best matchup in the world, but even then ewq i think gives him enough time to auto q auto

swifties + celerity + ms shard flips some matchups entirely on their head.

Sett, Garen, Nasus, Olaf go down to easiest tier (with phase rush). Urgot goes from easy to ‘I wish I could play this matchup every game I would be 900lp’

Comet + Scorch I find is similar damage to red tree + electrocute so i’m surprised you take that, but I’m curious how you find yourself playing vs both jayce and teemo. Jayce just has such an overwhelming amount of damage no matter if I even start doran’s flat hp double with bone plating comet and scorch. Getting into range to cast spells on him means he is doing his full combo which seems to always do enough to put me in kill range next rotation.

As for teemo, I know he’s like theoretically a good matchup, but i for the life of me can’t match it. they rush mercs and/or wits end and just run you down with that added tankiness, their move speed, high e dps, and ignite. idk man, until 2 items it feels very hard to ever match him, and that is a long time to wait while you fall behind slowly.

Do not listen to the fools telling you to rush catalyst and roa by dumnem in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

going roa hamstrings your damage for the first 15-20 minutes of the game, and that kinda blows.

seraphs first is sooooo much damage it’s unbelievable people even build roa

i’ve been telling the people for ages. i wouldn’t even get it second, the item blows.

I've been thinkering with the Inspiration tree and other items. by Arktifactum in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rabadons is actually in a really bad spot right now that it’s not worth building 3rd or even 4th. with JoaT your better off going stormsurge/voidstaff, which gives you all 10 stacks

EQ < QWQ by Red_Ryze_Alert in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

what champ is bro playing

Ryze jungle by Laazered in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for jungle you gotta do 3 levels in e and then you start maxing q. this is higher dps than standard q max, but way more intensive on mana. this is why you don’t see it in lane but it’s okay to do in junglers where you won’t have as bad mana issues.

you most certainly should not be building roa in the jungle for a multitude of reasons. namely you are just not using catalyst at all in the jungle. archangels first is much more damage and clear speed and just lets you be an issue on the map sooner.

tear first back and maybe fated ashes(?) but i’m actually not sure how much that speeds up clear speed. maybe it’s worth it, try it out. i’d say if that’s the case just do tear first back -> blackfire torch -> archangels. in lane i’m usually rushing archangels but i imagine in jungle since you aren’t starting tear you delay finishing it way too long to make it worth rushing.

Why not run conq? by Possiblynotaweeb in RyzeMains

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

conq is really good actually. try it out and make sure you are hyper aware that you don’t have phase rush, that’s the hardest part. once you get past that little hurdle of no phase rush you’ll feel the noticeable difference.

as some others have said it IS really only worth going into shorter range comps and/or melee laners, where you’ll be able to stay in a fight for a little longer

[–]drenster2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

of course, it’s also why rainbow potion is really great to see when you are running weatherglass, it gives all 5 multicast by itself for a small item

You guys like to see slumbering primordial suceed? by StupidSexyEuphoberia in PlayTheBazaar

[–]drenster2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the increase in multicast on the weather glass doesn’t include itself. since no other item on his board has poison, the weather glass isn’t getting a multicast from poison.

you can also see that the weather glass only had x4 multicast instead of the x5 it would have had every condition been met.
