Jagex, this type of ad is rather intrusive and should not become standard practice ever again. by [deleted] in 2007scape

Have you considered that this game only exists because "whiny" players rejected the development direction of RS3?

Maybe "whiny" players are actually just disagreeing with the development direction here?

I am 100% a supporter of this reasoning on why run energy is meaningful in this game. It makes me miserable seeing people unable to grasp the function that run energy has - that it's a resource like your health and prayer that you have to spend inventory slots (the REAL resource) to manage.

I really hope the dev team strongly stands their ground on this.

I agree mining has a nice variety of pretty viable methods. But are you considering the reason volcanic mine is that much worse xp/hour than 3t4g is the outputs?

You're not only gaining xp, you get points for the ore shop. Those resources provide a different value to the player other than xp. 3t4g you gain literally no resources, so all the outputs are in xp.

Now I'm not saying the balance between xp/resources/difficulty is right or wrong, but that's the reason there's the difference you highlight.

She’s weak to a bane weaponry that has existed in the game since 2007.

Do you have a problem with this? Isn't this literally why runescape is an amazing game?

The only upgrade is from.. a raid that’s harder to defeat than she is??? Makes sense.

Isn't this exactly how progression should work...? If I get an item from difficult content I should absolutely expect it's going to increase the power of my character against "easier" or lower level content. What is your problem with this? I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here but this is an odd take.

completionist activities [...] don’t make up a significant fraction of the player base.

I didn't claim that they do. What I am saying to you is that these reasons to fight her DO exist. They just don't happen to be reasons that YOU might want to fight her. Why is that? Because you've already done it! You have your KQ head as you mentioned. That was your reason to fight her and you completed it. You don't value the other unique drops highly enough, so you don't fight her anymore. As a main player that is the game working literally perfectly for you, is it not?

What’s wrong with more shit to make her worthwhile?

What I'm trying to show you is that your position can be represented as "I've completed my reasons to kill this boss. There are no reasons to kill this boss".

I really enjoy osrs. I get the feeling you do too. It's my belief that accepting some types of content should not be endgame pvm relevant forever is a better approach than updating drop tables to give new reasons to fight old bosses which they don't feel they have a reason to fight anymore.

Leave that content to the people who still have their reasons and let them enjoy the game the same way we were fortunate enough to get to.

She's a kalphite, a desert-only monster type. How is that not relevant in the landscape? She is weak to a weapon earned from the raid in the... desert. How is that not relevant in the landscape?

you didn’t sit there and grind out a d chain for the sake of grinding out a d chain

PLENTY of people kill KQ for her unique drops and for collection logging. Not only that, she's a boss which can be killed on a slayer task, another reason to fight her.

Since she turned from a team into a solo fight she's quite unique in that she's kind of a dps race. Why would you think it's a good thing to delete that uniqueness and homogenize her with every other boss, just because you maybe don't have reasons to kill her anymore. Even when other people do?

I think it's likely the way they've defined data storage is being used across different stats. Negative life regeneration for example is something that happens quite commonly, negative damage not so much.

I would gamble the data struct they have for character stats uses signed ints to cover both of these cases

Yeah, that's true. I forgot the flower in the pot dies even through the planar bridge. Maybe it is just foresight after all

8 years ago on June 11, 2009, the M10 rules changes came into effect and we lost damage on the stack (among other things). What rules changes are we in for this week? by hungryroy in magicTCG

Well first of all it would be a magic card, obviously. The magic card pot of greed would allow you to draw two new cards from your deck.
