A New Emote!


Santhos

Recommended Posts

I think meditation would be a cool emote. It would raise your prayer and energy back faster. I'm sure a quest would have to accompany considering the benifits but I still think it would be cool.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meditation - I'd say after haveing the quest in it it would be a level 35 prayer

If you wish to restore energy, then just make an emote sit. = ="

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and maybe make it so that is becomes more effective when you are actually using a chair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meditation is the relaxation of the mind and body: but mostly the mind. So if such an emote is going to have a special effect, it would be to restore prayer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the way, if you are to make these "stat restore" emotes, maybe make them so they keep going until you click the button again to stop it? As both sitting and meditating takes an ample amount of time, not just do it for a few seconds and get up...

Why do you resist? My experiments are only helping humanity push the boundaries of the Art of Toxicology... you should be proud to be one of my victims.

I think this would be a great idea for Runescape. I used to play an MMORPG called Conquer Online, and they had different emotes as Runescape does. One emote in particular, Sit, was very useful as when you sat your energy for using special attacks regenerated quickly. If they choose to add a meditate or sit emote than increased energy I would be very pleased. For balance issues it should probably require a short quest, and would restore energy twice as fast as your energy restores based on your agility level. Great idea.

I don't think emotes should affect your energy or special attack regeneration, and certainly not prayer. Yes, the idea "makes sense" in that meditation is related to prayer, but we're talking about things here that greatly affect the wild. People already complain about prayer in the wild, this would further complicate the issue.

It would not, for a meditating player would not be able to do anything unless they stop meditating.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, as nobody in their ring mind would sit down, cross their legs and close their eyes and let their mind wander off to far-away relams in a place as dangerous in the wilderness, you should not be able to use this emote in the wilderness.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, if you get attacked, you will automatically end the emote.

To Toxicologist: Zammy players would do just that: Meditate in wild

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And maybe something to restore special attack? Seems like a concentrated attack to me... requiring extra effort and all. Meditation could help there?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like the sit restoring energy better :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't think when he said it would restore prayer that it would restore prayer amazingly fast. If it restored one prayer point every minute which is more than enough then for a PK it would not make much difference. In fact it would probably make it easier for the PKer if their victim was dumb enough to start medidating in the middle of a battle assuming they can't eat or run whilst meditating.

This could work IF:

 

 

 

1) The prayer restore was slow (not just like an instant 1 point each time it is performed).

 

 

 

2) It is continuous and you must actively select to end medidation.

 

 

 

3) Being attacked while meditating does not end the emote

 

 

 

4) You cannot do anything (activate prayer, magic, eat, fight, nothing) while meditating.

 

 

 

5) You cannot meditate beyond level 15-20 wildy since "Dark Forces prevent the mind from relaxing" or something like that.

 

 

 

6) There is a max cap on the amount of prayer that can be restored from each emote (maybe 7 points?). After that the emote ends.

 

 

 

7) One must wait 4-5 minutes before using meditation again.
