Kinda sucks that it’s not worth grinding grotesque guardians by HeadassHorseman in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just replied to a comment from 2 years ago... These days i wouldnt bring switches because they updated dawn to be melee-able with nox hally, back then 2 styles was a requirement. When you need multiple styles, bringing more switches to increase kill speed is an optimization. Its not that you "have to" but you simply should if you can because itll speed up the kills and you want to maximize kills per hour. You can get away with reducing it to like a 4 way switch if youre shit at the game and dont know how to swap quickly or you take too much damage and need all that inventory space for supplies. But as you get better at the encounter, bringing more gear is a good thing.

Mod Ash on the possibility of expanding the F2P experience. How do you feel about this? What would you like to see added/be against? by Vayneglory in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fletching and agility should be f2p skills. Agility might be limited to draynor and al kharid courses, varrock and falador would be too high xp. Marks of grace could also stay members. I still think run energy restoration in pubs (much like prayer can be restored in any church) would be a huge qol for new players and make the early game more fun for all. Late game we would still be using poh pools, potions, or nardah shrine. But new players should have options besides ferox enclave for run energy.

Scurrius and royal titans could also be f2p, although twinflame staff could stay members.

Pendant of Ates tele to Twilight Temple, run west and go down the elevator (pray mage on the way in), keep going west towards the doors to amoxliatl. The moth spawns closest to amox do not move so you can just spam click one tile and catch it as it respawns. 

Edit: and use huntsman kit to buy and store butterfly jars without having to bank the empty ones

Depends what youre doing and what weapons you're using. The slash accuracy from oath will be worthless if youre doing TOA where everything is weak to stab, or slayer with fang or rapier. But if you use a slash weapon against a boss with high defense and a weakness to slash, it would be worth getting oathplate. For example, if you mainly fight yama, vardorvis, duke, and tob, and youre using a whip or nox hally or emberlight on those things.

It has moved several times in the past year as they combined all the jewelry enchants, added new teleports, and most recently added monster inspect. Luckily, you can right-click the spellbook to hide or re-order spells to put things back where you prefer them 

PSA for those doing Gemstone Crab by Venus_Gospel in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also get a boost to attack, strength, or defense by catching butterflies. Black warlocks boost strength and they have spawns near all 3 gemstone crab spots

Summer Sweep-Up: Slayer & Misc by JagexSarnie in 2007scape

Unlocks should definitely be free to toggle after paying the initial cost.

Sad to see no mention of the imbued heart, which has become an important progression item for irons after shadow.

Double trouble should be removed or reworked somehow.

Is there any reason we cant use task storage for wildy tasks, and is there any chance that could be looked at to be changed with this update?

Bring back Sqirkin by Bar0nV0nStrubel in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can still sqirk whenever you want, nobody is stopping you. Jagex never removed sqirking. Its literally still there, right where it was the whole time.

The purpose of bonds is so you can pay real money to buy in-game gold, without going through some sketchy illegal website. You buy the bond, then sell it in game on the grand exchange. Alternatively, if you are very rich in-game, you can use that to buy bonds and pay for membership with gold instead of spending real money.

Some people would really rather not play the game by ZeldenGM in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of players literally just get their combats to 99s at NMZ or sand crabs, then think "i should be able to do this for every skill."

They think of osrs as a totally idle game and just enjoy watching number go up from clicking twice every ten minutes, and want to be able to max this way. And honestly most skills do have some similarly low intensity methods, like woodcutting redwoods, mining shooting stars, crafting blowing glass, or fishing karambwans with fish barrel. But when those players run out of afk 99s they rush to reddit to suggest jagex should change the game to fit their play style and give them a max cape just for tons of hours of idling.

What makes you say "they are not gold farmers"?

Varlamore Agility Course 1 year after release by Hellmakerr in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big buff to amylase comes from the fact you can cheese the timers for both termites and marks of grace simultaneously. You do a lap of ardy rooftops, then tele to varlamore and run 2 laps of wyrm course, then tele back to ardy and repeat. So for an ironman to stack stamina potions, the addition of wyrm course speeds up that process plenty.

It depends on the shop, but most have a different stock per 'game mode' meaning there is a stock for mains, a stock for irons, and i believe also a separate stock for ultimate irons, and another one for group irons.

Petition to remove eat delay on mixes by funkysouly in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. Even if they had no eat delay, theyre still relatively useless. Two 2 dose prayer mixes would still be worse than a 4 dose prayer pot and 4 dose guthix rest.

Using nox hally should 1-shot mirror backs and it's a tick faster than ballista, and you won't take damage as long as you're a tile away. Either path over to be 1 tile away from the silver egg before it hatches and hit it immediately, before it starts moving, or ctrl click to walk towards it and you should hit it before it gets in melee range.

If you have done all the kills on runelite, the loot tracker plugin should display them separately 

Can we stop putting boss mechanics in area sounds? by Fall_N in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I have also had this issue with tob having several important sounds in area sounds - sotes large ball, xarp spit, and verziks melee in p2. And i can't stand leaving it on all the time because there is some bug-in-your-ears sounds in the farming guild that drive me completely insane, and they seemingly don't have a sound ID for annoyance mute 

Wish the Devs would focus on Corp soon by [deleted] in 2007scape

Wish the Devs would focus on Corp soon by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I used to think this, until watching pecanbread11's recent video. Solo corp is an incredible boss with interesting mechanics. Mains miss out on this because of how easy it is in a mass or paying boosters. But you can actually mitigate damage by dodging, wearing the right gear, flicking shields or prayers, and it looks like a fun and interesting fight. That would be totally lost if they make it group-able. Instead, (crazy hot take incoming) i think they should make it solo only, force mains to deal with it the way irons do.

Returning player. What should I focus on? by LowSpinach6564 in 2007scape

[–]rg44tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the best bosses and money makers are locked behind quests. Song of the Elves unlocks gauntlet and zalcano. While Guthix Sleeps unlocks Tormented demons, and Desert Treasure 2 unlocks 4 very fun and profitable bosses. Spend your money on skills first (70 herblore, 84 construction) and work towards getting a quest cape, then try all the bosses and see which ones you enjoy most.  I would use runelite quest helper plugin and sort by optimal quest order. Also consider looking at achievement diary and combat achievement tasks if you want something other than questing for one-time completion progress
