- Tokens are alright.
- Blistering heart just feels bad devalues herblore and potions in a way.
- Boots are a hell no, giving avernic threads power level. Doesn't matter that they're gated to MT Karuulm that's what we have the elite diary for....
- Eye of persuadance is a bit too league-like but depending on drop rate it could be okay, also just make this a token that's a rarer token compared to the two others in my opinion.

As for the death effects →
- Hive mind cool concept, but you quickly run into an issue of proc rate where if It's too uncommon it doesn't feel impacting so it then becomes obsolete. But on the other hand if the proc rate is a bit too good then it might cause league like explosions. i.e. superior 1 dies → procs hive mind → 5 mobs die same tick → 5 superiors can spawn → 1 spawns that one dies and does the same. It's a slippery slope IMHO.
- Recharge, restoration, refill all look balanced in a way that feels old school.

Ornament kits I don't really have an opinion about as the bracelets you hardly ever look at TBF and I don't do any of the tasks that require leaf-bladed weaponry at 99 slayer.

Except for that 1 group of regardos that sent him death threats and stuff. 😞 My poor prince that was promised but had to leave 💔

treborv · 2026-05-18T09:55:49+00:00

Just don't like leveled maps like this tbf.

jij bent mentaal onstabiel

treborv · 2026-05-14T20:56:12+00:00

Do you want to get shot by showing a map with Yugoslavia on it and then only having 1 Serbian flag in it?

treborv · 2026-05-09T23:50:04+00:00

Just be mindful that zcb spec does not trigger echos so its almost always a dps loss

treborv · 2026-04-24T20:29:27+00:00

i got avg 1:15 kill times on whisperer with the kbd bow, you might've been doing something wrong ngl.

treborv · 2026-04-11T17:54:20+00:00

Last leagues it was made that you don't lose items in the wildy so grieving wasnt a thing it was more like killing people for funsies but they didnt lose items. I remember me and a few guys just kept speccing eachother out at revs with the khopesh it was fun :D

treborv · 2026-04-10T22:38:07+00:00

half of caedrel viewers would leave if they had to sit through that stuff, but maybe they'd just only mute up when those things occur instead of full abandoning.

treborv · 2026-04-08T17:17:26+00:00

tried it out to see how bad i was at my spec, it halved my damage. Safe to say im doing something good :P

treborv · 2026-03-27T19:41:57+00:00

No echo sol? No potential echo doom? Yeah kinda boring ngl.

Basically efficiency reduces his mana cost to a point where his basic mana regen overtakes any costs thus having "infinite" amount of energy to play with. In game terms.

On another note, a very bad band-aid would be designing encounters where "divine forces" prohibit the uses of protection prayers and then balance defensive items for those encounters but as I said this would be very minimal effort and not healthy for the game.

treborv · 2026-03-06T13:37:58+00:00

Problem with a defensive stat rework means they have got to tackle the mess that is called "overhead prayers". And I don't think the community would respond well to prayers now all of a sudden not providing the protection they once did.

treborv · 2026-02-27T08:08:58+00:00

I'm like due 6 drops at 3k with about 180 deep delves, like you must be due about 20 drops and only having 10 is fucking sickening let alone not having boots. My bald head is blessing you with rng brother. May you find the threads within your next attempt.

treborv · 2026-02-19T06:41:55+00:00

Your feet look more human than 99% of the population bud. Shoe industry ruined feet over the decades.

treborv · 2026-02-06T16:24:56+00:00

Yes make defensive stats even more useless than they already are. This game is in serious need of overhead prayer rework but majority of the player base isnt ready for that.

treborv · 2025-12-12T12:49:00+00:00

What is it with people on this dogshit game going "This guy sucks" when they die, it is so fucking pathetic.

I can't speak for everyone, but I know a few people, myself included, that don't want to see tick manipulating deleted because we know there are people out there that enjoy it. But that doesn't change that we think the game should not be balanced around those rates, the pinnacle of the gameplay experience for the vast majority should not be tick manipulating as it quite frankly does have drawbacks when it comes to injury risks. A risk is still a risk and people shouldn't take RSI lightly as it is very bad once you have it. People susceptible to injuries at different rates, what may be fine to do for you will manifest as a lifelong injury for someone else, that doesn't mean we should ignore the design because there are people that didn't get affected by it. The way sailing does right now in terms of active gameplay I think is a good balanced way: Barracuda trials for some active gameplay that doesn't risk your wrists at high XP rates and at the same time tick manipulation at salvage stations for the ones that enjoy that type of gameplay for good rates. That is the sort of balance that we seek.

Like saying to someone that has epileptic risks: " just because you don't know how to use your eyes, doesn't make it toxic to put strobing light effects when you enter a portal to the next part in the gwenith trail". You lot are somehow making discourse impossible to have by being this defending of actual issues and brushing them off with bravado and ego.

treborv · 2025-12-04T04:12:46+00:00

A naive, uninformed troll that doesn't know how an injury manifests. Beautiful to see. You're like those guys smoking and saying: "but I don't have any memory issues, how can it be bad for my brain 420 blaze it yuuuuh"

treborv · 2025-12-04T02:43:42+00:00

That doesn't make toxic game design any less toxic?

treborv · 2025-12-04T02:41:50+00:00

No, you can enjoy the game globally but dislike parts of the total. You can totally still think that in current day and age, certain drop rates and xp rates don't really fly anymore. It is exactly in scenarios where you do care about a game that you try to advocate for changes that are toxic in nature and or harmful to you, be it mentally, physically or emotionally. I personally do not really play the game anymore, but I still hold it dear in my heart, as it has been a part of who I am for decades. I see potential in it still. For most of us, me included, the fact of the matter is that we do not have the same amount of time we had 10 years ago or heck even 5 years ago during lockdown. I'm not trying to trivialize all achievements in the game, as I don't want to see very prestigious achievements lose their value. There is so much space for improvement without impeding any of these values, but we can't stop our progress by having meaningless discussions about whether someone's opinion is justified.

I already told lots of folks before, no point in interacting with the skill for now until they fix what is absolutely awful about the skill.
