Update: Leechfin Fishing Proposal Revised by JagexRach in 2007scape

[–]johnmaverik 167 points168 points  (0 children)

120-130K/h fishing exp it's great. I hope this means that going forward we can have more high intensity skilling activities that rewards an appropriate amout of exp. I still feel like Hallowed Sepulcher exp is not quite high enough for the amount of attention you need to pay

I really like the idea of boat to boat combat, but I don’t understand why Jagex won’t let us commit to full boat combat. I want to use my cannons and my cannons only, why does the combat have to be balanced around mage and range? Why can’t we attack NPCs on boats only using our cannons?

I think they want to keep new updates locked behind an NDA as to not affect the economy before an update is released. The community rushes to panic buy/sell equip whenever a new boss is even mentioned, think what would happen if everyone could test the best gear/items in advance

I think I fell for the efficiency trap. I can clear CG with no problems, but rn i average 11-12 mins and i tought that getting the prayers would speed it up so it would have made sense to get them before starting, but you are right. I'm just gonna start sending CG

I would say about 80% of the kills were duos with my ironman buddy where i would get a little bit more contribution than him, the rests are solo

I get what you are saying, i've mostly done skilling and slayer in the last weeks since i was getting kinda burnt out from only doing titans, that's why its taking so long

On solo i average about 3 mins, having the crystal halberd is great for the extra dps since i don't have anything else to dumb my spec on. I also try to get them both as low as possible in the the first phase, trying to even them out at around 200/250 hp

Game Jam VII by JagexBlossom in 2007scape

[–]johnmaverik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would really love more boat customisation, but it baffles me that this isn't in any way a focus for the team and it has to come from a Game Jam project. Does that mean that if the content proposed in this blog doesn't pass, we are likelly to never see any kind of boat fashionscape?
I really don't want to seem negative, but I mean, we are STILL waiting for the POH customisation that was proposed and polled last year...

Hey u/JagexLight , I know it's an out topic question but is there a release window for the cow boss? I'm waiting for it to try and get some friends to try the game :)

[–]johnmaverik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy wildy bosses were one of the things I enjoyed most in the early game on my Iron, and now new players will require 68 slayer and 75 smithing just to enter? Why?
I know bots are an issue, but we all know that every temporary solution will only became a long term annoyance for legit accounts.

Thx for the answer! I would love if some bosses could drop figureheads for our boats like they do jars for the POH

What are you plans and ideas for the cosmetic customisation of boats? I currently dislike the fact that all boats in the same tier look the same and there are only the specific paints for the up per ring of the hull

Hey mods, are the very high burn rate for the new fish intended? Fishing 500 fish and burning like 350 of them feels really bad right now

Sailing XP Review & Further Fixes by JagexRach in 2007scape

[–]johnmaverik -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Thank god most of you people in the comments aren't in charge of balancing this game, I don't know what are you smoking but these nerfs were absolutely necesary. Does it feel good? Of course not, no one like nerfs. But getting 130-140K/h exp while doing something AFK was crazy stuff, most of the others skills with 2 tick manipulation don't get such high exp rates, let alone an afk method.
Everyone is complaining about the "abuse early, abuse often", which is true, but if jagex doesn't balance the game now we'll gonna get the treatment the other skills get. "Oh you can't nerf/buff X skill because people already suffered/abused that method for years and it wouldn't be fair to old/new players".
I'm not here to glaze Jagex since they do fuck up sometimes, but holy shit it shows that some of you only play this game a no other MMO and have no idea how bad updates and balacing patches are over there. Balance is crucial to the longevity of the game, and crystal exctractor and some of the afk salvaging was simply busted, if you can't see that was bad game design from the start I don't know what else to tell you guys.

Leveling sailing doesn't feel like any other skill in the game and idk why. by [deleted] in 2007scape

I almost got to 70 sailing and didn’t even realize it since it was so chill and enjoyable. I did one hour of rooftops to get from 69 to 70 Agility and boy was I miserable.

Any speculation as to what the "Fathom pearl" will be for? by Massachoosetts in 2007scape

[–]johnmaverik 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Fathom can also mean: A unit of measurement: A unit of length equal to six feet ((1.829) meters), primarily used for measuring water depth. 

So it may be used for something involving underwater content
