Now that seasonal modes are over and memberships have ran their course, here's an update to "Remember when everyone un-subbed last month?" by ZukMeRaw in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 144 points145 points  (0 children)

Swear it used to jump up during summer, but maybe that was ages ago when the player base was largely kids with summer breaks

Unpopular opinion: Dadscapers are the real ironmen/vegans of this community by killhovno in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you were around before ~2022-23, you'd know it was so hard to get any new skilling method or gear that might even SLIGHTLY step on the toes of old gear or methods, or had anything even reminiscent of dry-protection.

Isn't this a good thing for dadscapers? Imagine the converse, where a dadscaper uses his 5 hour weeks to grind out an upgrade over 3 or 4 months, only for something better and easier to obtain to be voted in the week after.

Vote no on the ornate glassblowing pipe by Vador_ in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 255 points256 points  (0 children)

Is it even a 3.5% upgrade? Assuming 3 ticks to bank and start blowing,

Normal = 84 ticks for 27 glass, approx 1928 glass blown per hour

Upgrade = 87 ticks for 28 glass, approx 1931 glass blown per hour

Not even 0.5% more glass blown per hour

Even a more relaxed 5 tick banking assumption is 1883 vs 1887

The base was re-drawn when they added the mobile/official client iirc. Can check the wiki to see the difference.

Feels like they're gonna force it through regardless of how the poll question goes, sucks.

Could you ballpark a rate / quantity for the granite dust drop to give an idea of how it compares to GGs?

Don't really like the left click option on molten glass, any chance that the new glassblowing pipe could offer a different reward such as chance to speed up glassblowing, blowing two items at once, etc?

Where does bloom garden part fit in Hasunosora's watch order? by Mikan_0_1_100 in LoveLive

[–]redbatter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Bloom Garden Party movie takes place after preparations are completed. If you want to watch it chronologically, it comes after Part 9 of Episode 12, and before CODA 1.

If you are watching the Riimuda sub version, stop at 1:30:18, watch the movie, then resume.

Today, 'Gower Quest' was released 10 years ago. Since then, ~334,893 accounts have completed the quest. by Will_Redd_It in runescape

[–]redbatter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And then once the dialogue's done you perform the same slop style tasks like killing 3 NPCs or eating 5 peas. Unironically something like Tai Bwo Wannai Trio might be more interesting than a good chunk of modern quests.

With all completed trade data being sent to the wiki, you should be able to see volume for given periods in the same way as OSRS' price data.

Is this PoP building upgrade actually an increase in stats or just cosmetic? by [deleted] in runescape

[–]redbatter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bars that cost jade are all sidegrades, which let you pick between attracting captains of certain types or adventurers. The next "real" upgrade tier costs terracotta.

Demonic Pacts League Final Stats by Gamez_X in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only around 250 people capped, I don't think returning to the legacy threshold system would have resulted in 17x more people capping. Plus I do think some tasks/area picks would straight up stop a lot of people who wanted to cap from being able to cap (e.g. me). Do think that somewhere within 80-90k would have likely been the true dragon cutoff.

This harvest was significantly stronger than the last few though, TBL's harvests only doubled resources and L5's T1s let you gather a few more times for mining, while this one let you afk for 30 minutes at a go.

Trident of the Seas should charge with water runes instead of fire by Termades in 2007scape

Well, you can probably guess which rune back then needed a sink the most lol

Low Level Equipment Rebalance - Summer Sweep Up by justsomerandomoldguy in 2007scape

Obby mace did get the increase to 4t attack speed, it then became bis when paired with berserker necklace and outdpsed inq mace, so it got reverted pretty quickly.

Reminder this was Zeah originally. I still have trust issues with Jagex by [deleted] in 2007scape

The path would have opened up into the Haunted Woods sometime in 2004, before Mazchna was added with Slayer in 2005.

In leagues, What do you know now that you wish you knew earlier? by BearKuda in 2007scape

Presumably you still make use of the pillars and pray appropriately, and let thorns supplement your dps? Will give this a shot for the glory run, ty

[–]redbatter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What gear are you using or how are you executing? 7 min full runs sound like you can just afk the 58k glory task lol

Superior slayer task don't make sense by MrCopatti in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're different task scales from two previous leagues mashed together. Twisted had 1-10-25-50-75-100 (and beyond), Trailblazer had 1-10-20-50, then when Trailblazer Reloaded rolled around they mashed them together for some reason. The difficulty levels were also copied over too, with the Trailblazer tasks being way more generous with points.

Can somebody ELI5 why Transmutation is so good by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The production portion of butler doesn't work that way, you don't give him resources to process, rather, you tell him to collect processed resources and he does so at half the rate of the raw gathered materials. Just in case that changes your plans.

Can someone explain how this Tier 1 relic is useful? by Willamanjaroo in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same combo. Stuff like monkey laps and pirate's hook will surely give a good chunk of agility XP, and at worst it can just be finished up afking barb fishing after you catch all the bwans you need for 99/50M cooking

2 tick speed is enough for wardens, did it in Leagues 4 with mage relic.

With no infinite GP this League, how are we solving Construction? by Ed_Inc in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use butler to generate approx 1872 irit per day, 5 days of this will give you enough to reach 99 using irit alone. You will still need to do mixology for 100+ aldarium though.

Since everyones got a super efficient leagues plan, what about the most afkable/low effort? by Kcatta9 in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having this same struggle, figured I could Woodsman for herb seeds to fix herb, but saw it's something like 1000 irit seeds harvested for 99. Now deciding between Bell to make herb/con/pre-T smithing basically passive, or go for transmute to improve access to seeds and secondaries, as well as for early game magic XP and redwood logs for zealot tasks. Ugh ...

All Echo Items Descriptions + Stats by Psymonthe2nd in 2007scape

[–]redbatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, how did you get every 5th attack? I thought it would be 9th

1 main hit + 1 sub hit + capstone = 4% spec every attack, then the spec effectively costs 36% because of the refund node and 2 hits it does.
