No ma'am! Just to add to the "effigies were not buffed" argument:- (Kept the magic one as "proof")
-
I thought it was strange since, from memory at least, trading RSC <-> RS2 was "against the rules", but Jagex2013 and such. It's within the rules so good luck to people who are making the cash etc etc
-
It's within the rules (according to Jagex), why would something be done.

No ma'am!

Warband PK's tracker website is down, so all their worlds are Cape ON. Should make it that tad bit safer for you unable to get into FCs but still able to follow people around. And it's back

Dislike.

I should add on though, this will eventually be cut down. Maybe not in the short term as has been "discussed" and "leaked", but eventually. The reasoning will be the same as we saw with effigies, "we don't want them [effigies/warbands/god knows what other stupid shit next] to be a better way to train the skill than doing the skill itself". But hey, if Jagex wants to give me a potential windfall of 132.8m xp/year for doing very little, then that's pretty ok with me.

It is a reflection of a new-wave of Scapers who want xp over grind (whom Jagex will feed because player #s = money). It's also not one of the targeted ideas that were talked about in the original Botnuke era to address player centric (rather than Goldfarming) botting - which was often focused on the grind. I'd go on to say that calling them delusional is a bit excessive. But that's another line of argument.

Have you ever failed warbands before (i.e. pked for supplies)? How often do you fail? 1 in 3? 1 in 12? Every time you get the Wand of Treachery? Had wand 3 times, now I don't loot til I see it go. Have had camps die mid-loot (solved by showing up on time). Fail (not 25/25) would be 1/25 camps, if that (over 2 accounts). Alot of people also don't realise that you can get PK'd and if you haven't looted the full 25, you can return (assuming still up) and finish looting what was left of the 25. (And get pk'd again like a champ) What's the benefit to a pker who tries to kill you? 100k in supplies? What's the risk that he'll get decimated by the other 99 people in the FC, or the others in the spillover chat? No real benefit other than griefing, which is obviously a personal "high" of sorts. Risk: High. What then are the benefits to "skillers" doing warbands? - No cash sink - Relatively risk free (either as a 200 CBTer in an FC, or a Level 4 roaming alone). How do the XP rates hold up to other XP D&Ds? Troll invasion comes in (@99) at 931k/h (rounding down, assuming 5 minute Hard Mode, which is easily achieveable). However, the comparison shouldn't be made to others since rather than 3 times/day we're looking at monthly (even if it was 1 Warband/Month, it'd be superior over TI). Finally, given that the content was balanced with much higher risks anticipated and originally intended to be used every 8 hours, how should the balancing team react now that the risk has been almost completely eliminated (or reduced to the point of meaninglessness) as this D&D has become dominated by Warband FCs? Good luck. This design feeds into the clan mentality perfectly, most powerful controlling the area. Does the risk get reduced too far? Well, maybe, but there are always going to be ways to reduce the risks that weren't previously "thought of". Jagex seems to be notoriously bad at viewing things from a player perspective in that regard.

Has allowed people to shit in GP whilst doing AFKables (mostly Ivy), which takes the money making element of it all down a lot. There was also Alkan and possibly others who seem to have all but quit (well, Alkan appears to be on the return) which took a big toll on the ranks whilst also allowing people to gain a "lead" they would've otherwise been chasing.
