The Great Orb Experiment

[eagleman1125]

I just posted this on the Official forums, so I thought I would also post it here:

 

I'm sure many people have checked out the Runecrafting Guild and associated minigame by now. Personally, I think it is a great game and a lot of fun to play... except when it is 4 against 1. Every game I've played today has turned into a ridiculously uneven match between 1 player and an entire 4-person team. Something needs to be done to change this. Note: THIS IS NOT A RANT, IT'S A SUGGESTION!!!

 

 

 

Now for the suggestions:

 

1. Pure Essence- How does Jagex figure out how many we receive!?! I've gotten the same number for 1 orb as for 7!! Suggestion: we receive as many essence at each altar as the number of orbs that our team scores.

 

 

 

2. Uneven teams- Jagex can't really say that you can't leave in the middle of the game, since you can do that in most/all other minigames. However, I think a set of different rules with uneven teams would be nice. First, the team with more players cannot erect barriers. Second, barriers erected by the team with less players last longer. Third, the team with less players can move orbs at a speed equal to 1.5x their level. Note: 1 of the above comes into play for each member that 1 team has over the other (i.e. 4 vs. 3= only #1, 4 vs. 2= #1 and #2, 4 vs. 1= #1, #2, and #3).

 

 

 

3. Tokens- I think that we should receive tokens for completing the entire game with less than a full team. This would be something like: 1 less= 50 tokens, 2 less= 100 tokens, 3 less= 200 tokens.

 

 

 

This is just a pretty quick suggestion that I thought of after playing 2 games of 4 against 1; other players will probably think of better ideas.

yes. its mucho needed. or else people will have to pay people to play against them. ( im suprised this isn't already in effect)

I believe that Jagex are fixing the game now.

 

 

 

Also, to your first thing, i believe that you get the amount of ess for each orb YOU brought to the alter.

 

Because on my favourate alter (fire) i get about 20 ess, while on others i get ~3

You definitely don't get an essence for every orb you bring, or at least I haven't. A few times when I was alone on my team, I scored 3 or 4 orbs, but only received 1 essence.
