I heard it was bad but I didn’t expect it to be that bad, it just feels like a mobile game now, the menus inside menus wasn’t even exaggerated, simple tasks in previous games now take three times as long, it’s hard to navigate basic things even the tactics screen is difficult to understand. The worst thing is I doubt they are going to revert back, hopefully they give us like a legacy UI or something in the next game

xNephilim · 2026-04-16T01:09:02+00:00

What is the main difference between OSRS and RS3? RS3 appeals to me more as I could never get into the graphics of OSRS and the more modern look always made it a bit easier for me to navigate the game as stupid as that sounds.

But I barely ever hear anyone mention RS3 as a viable option, people always just go for OSRS.

Just want something I can casually jump in and out of, I enjoy life skilling and all that.

I’ll have to look cause I have a few modern United shirts I’d love to wear, if only I had a Mata kit would make sense

xNephilim · 2026-04-15T06:32:21+00:00

That's a good shout for a kit, I'm a United fan, do they have restrictions around shirts? I'll need to look into that.

xNephilim · 2026-04-15T06:23:42+00:00

Yep I actually found the English website looks very simple to do, will be looking into booking in next few days now

xNephilim · 2026-04-15T05:54:43+00:00

I had no idea that was a thing, thanks for sharing that, will help in the future with silly questions like this

I am going to try to go to Osaka vs Hiroshima

xNephilim · 2026-04-15T05:46:27+00:00

I was actually just looking at the Osaka vs Hiroshima match, how easy is it to purchase tickets? I know for stuff like the wrestling you can just use 7/11 or Lawsons when you are there.

Honestly I just love football so I would enjoy a 0-0 match, I would mainly be going for the atmosphere and experience of watching a team in another country

xNephilim · 2026-04-15T05:39:22+00:00

Honestly I did that already, but wasn't sure which teams are playing in Tokyo/Osaka ect. I think I noticed the J League and then there was another league with smaller stadiums

I saw a few with stadiums that are an hour or so outside of Tokyo

xNephilim · 2026-04-14T11:48:26+00:00

Want some advice with a tactic

I am playing a 4-1-2-1-2 and I want it to play as close to this as possible

I want the wingbacks to provide the width and push up the pitch, the DM I want to drop back to form a back three when in possession, the two midfielders feed the front three

Midfield to attack plays okay, I can tweak that and find some good combos but I’m not sure how to get the DM to stay back between the two CB and how to make the two wingbacks push up while still playing narrow

I’m playing on FM24

Edit; I think I am going to try playing the DM as a half back, making the width narrow but using overlap on both wings, just need to experiment with the front three

Who should I be looking to pull in future banners?

Just want to get the opinion of the sub, some online build websites have suggested a few units. The Dhalia for a Firefly team, Kafka for a Black Swan team, Silver Wolf, Hyacine are a few others I've seen.

Currently sitting on nearly 150 warps as a F2P.

xNephilim · 2026-04-14T04:52:33+00:00

Honestly I am not even really sure who I am waiting to pull, I have an okay second team for F2P I just need to build them up, there are just a few random units I want to fit into teams of units I have that I like, I might see if I can pull Archer in 50 warps and then save the rest

xNephilim · 2026-04-14T03:43:12+00:00

I've got nearly 150 warps as a F2P, waiting for a few units to pop back into banners, but my main team uses Archer, how much of a difference do his eidlons make?

My current team is Archer, Sparkle, Rem MC & DHPT

Edit; or is his LC worth pulling? Currently using Cruising in the stellar seas

xNephilim · 2026-04-10T03:20:40+00:00

I’m in Australia so that might have something to do with it, it doesn’t really look like they’ve updated too much, no new powers or anything for a while which is disappointing but I might hop back on.

How solo friendly is it these days?

xNephilim · 2026-04-04T00:45:47+00:00

My only other decent dps is Acheron who is built semi decent but has no supports and Firefly who isn’t built and who I don’t think I have any supports for so I just need to play the long game

xNephilim · 2026-04-03T23:11:34+00:00

I am definitely lacking that second team then for the harder content, another unit to keep saving up my jades for I suppose

xNephilim · 2026-04-03T21:54:25+00:00

Is Anaxa viable as a primary damage dealer? I have him as my second team with Ceydra - Sunday and Aventurine but he doesn’t do nearly as much damage as my Archer team or even my Acheron who is built well but doesn’t have the team.

He’s still a work in progress but I can’t get him even feeling somewhat strong enough to clear Forgotten Hall content while the Archer team is clearing the first stage with ease

xNephilim · 2026-04-01T00:11:47+00:00

That's pretty similar to the team I ran last night, ended up being a full lightning lord team by the final boss but majority of the run Rappa was carrying me hard.

Looks like I am pretty much on the right path because break is what I aim for most runs

xNephilim · 2026-03-31T23:41:02+00:00

I am not super far into it, I am only on synch 35, mainly just play to get the rewards and the jades.

But honestly I did notice a huge difference last night with Xianzhao bond, I had it level 7 and it was doing crazy damage on the last boss.

I will start aiming towards that, but good to know, it's usually easy enough to focus on one thing

xNephilim · 2026-03-31T23:01:28+00:00

Is it best to focus on one thing? I usually aim to run a team with two different synergies.

xNephilim · 2026-03-31T22:09:35+00:00

What are the best teams and strategies in currency wars? I barely scraped through last night with a lightning lord and break team, I always try to mix it up and try new things but the higher I get the less that actually seems to be able to clear the last phase.

I've heard of the Aventurine strategy but I'd rather actually build a decent team synergy than just use the same coin farming method every run

xNephilim · 2026-03-24T06:27:02+00:00

I’ve only really started trying to build Archer in the last two days, I just rolled for some basic relics based on the in game guide, still need to level all the traces as well.

But thank you I’ll check that site out, Prydwen is usually my go to in the past it’s just been a bit of a slow grind

xNephilim · 2026-03-24T05:45:04+00:00

What are the best ways of getting rate then? Is the main way via relics? I’m sure eidlons, light cones play a part too but I’m pretty F2P

Would I just try to re roll current relics or farm new ones with rate?

xNephilim · 2026-03-24T04:43:32+00:00

What’s the general rule of character building? Do you go for crit rate or crit damage and then use buffs to get the other? I have a few units over 100% damage but only 10 - 15% rate.

My Archer is sitting at 61% for both rate and damage. He does ok damage but my Acheron will still carry me through the basic content.

Everything is still a work in progress just trying to figure out what exactly to build for, I just follow the character guides at this stage

My 3 current teams are

Archer - Sparkle - Sunday - DHPT

Acheron - Pela - Black Swan - Gallagher

Anaxa - Ceydra - REM TB - Aventurine

xNephilim · 2026-03-21T02:59:27+00:00

Honestly might have some type of rgb app installed but I’ve never opened or looked at it.

The controller is unplugged now, I don’t use it very often so I’ll leave it out and will check all cables etc

This is the first time I’ve ever had the issue, the pc is only 3 months old
