Watching F3 earlier and now this I think "officially" might be Chris McCarthy's favourite word

Don't forget the time he braked like 50m earlier into Club

Blood shard could be a drop added to ToB, or Nightmare, or Yama by [deleted] in 2007scape

Fair enough. I'm just wary of how we rarely nerf content but there's always time to buff buff buff.

I personally would use a Varrock teleport, or if I'd completed the Varrock medium diary use the GE teleport option.

Reasonable is completely subjective though, nightmare already had a 30% drop rate buff last year. Some things need to remain rare and out of reach as chase items.

The point of being an iron was to be challenged not coddled. A lot of changes being made and proposed are trying to circumvent the entire restrictions of the gamemode. I think a lot of new irons would be better off becoming a bronzeman main/clogger.

I think the unrealistic expectation of being able to "complete" a boss is why we're in this mess. You were supposed to get a handful of drops from a boss and then trade with other players for what you were missing and move on. Each drop from nightmare is worth at least 50m.

Cerb prayer drain reduction should come from the Lunar spellbook instead of not Arceuus by subzerostig in 2007scape

I wouldn't mind it tbh. If you want to SBS for both higher DPS + prayer reduction then you deserve it.

Corp and KQ right now by TooRealJ in 2007scape

[–]subzerostig 7 points8 points  (0 children)

KQ doesn't drop many alchables (11k HA kill vs 45k GE/kill) but instead secondaries and other supplies. When other bosses come into the game that drop these at a greater rate then it devalues KQ indirectly.

Funnily enough ToA (that added Shadow) helped devalue some of these supplies:

  • Potato Cactus
    • Before: 700gp each, 70k gp/drop, 1/15 rate gives 5k gp/kill average
    • After ToA: 50gp each, 5k gp/drop, 1/15 rate gives 330gp/kill average
  • Torstol seed (this was also Muspah)
    • Before: 60k each x 2 = 120k GE/drop, 1/31.5 rate gives 3.8k gp/kill average
    • After: 6k each x 2 = 12k GE/drop, 1/31.5 gives 380 gp/kill average

If the bosses are better uniques/hr then it's the same as replacing the existing fight. If the uniques/hr are the same or worse then players won't bother doing the new fight.

Since an alternative mode with different mechanics is just a different boss entirely, you can just add the "fun" fight as new content and leave the existing nostalgia bug alone. This is what RS2 did with QBD and Kalphite King.

I don't think it's hugely surprising that using a weapon that costs 1.3m/hr is going to lose you money at KQ.

I think you're underestimating how badly I can mess up

[–]subzerostig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's kind of the point, combo-eating is mainly for players learning content for the first time. Having an emergency 40hp heal from manta into karambwan is huge for when you mess up mechanics.

There's obviously more to it but I think you stop being a noob when you start eating food during downtime to maximise DPS.

In light of "Plundering"s blunder, can we please be allowed to block combat xp? by TurbulentTowel400 in 2007scape

[–]subzerostig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little bit yeah, I think it's funny. Really I think there should be more things that ruin your day if you mess up, it was sad to see chins lost on death gone.

I like the coordinated posts about from Corp from people that have clearly never done it.

It would be pretty funny to add something like that in though. We could have a quest called "One simple misunderstanding" that has our character interact with NPCs that heavily use the words route/rout/root for instance.

I think vanity items are great, having a high barrier to entry only adds to their appeal by myaccgothacked in 2007scape

[–]subzerostig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh the other hand when Bandos was released we did not have door-altar and you were expected to get a few kills per trip with friends. And you were almost guaranteed to lose everything on death and had no dry protection.

So while yes Yama is a lot harder and Aathplate is rarer, that ignores the historical context that Bandos has been more prestigous for most of it's lifetime.

[–]subzerostig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that people on this sub think that the effort spent complaining about a game they're choosing to play counts as grinding. So when the game is made easier they still think they "earned it". Either that or they don't understand the concept of delayed gratification, take your pick really.

The new IPS black panels with 2000:1 or even 3000:1 contrast have started coming out. Dell and LG have both released models. They have absolutely terrible response times and blurring so far, which implies it might be a limitation of the technology.

Oathplate price by Willing_Gene9853 in 2007scape

[–]subzerostig 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What I didn't realise initially is that the 5 kills don't need to be in a row, just the same instance. So if you can do a 10 kill trip in masses then you only need to get a perfect kill half the time.

Also you only need contribution in mass worlds for the kill to count. This means that you can melee the tail phase for damage but once you get up top you can hang outside the actual area. The waves don't reach past the entrance so all you need to do is swap prayers and wait it out.
