Stommel 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Something I'm curious about. Do you need to have the row equipped to get the drops? Or can they drop without the row?you do not have to wear the row to get the new rare table drops.are you saying that you only get parts of the effect when it's in your inventory? (the part with the random new drops like noted resources, right?) You don't even need a ROW to get them, it just increases the chance of getting them (more than it did before) Join "DGS" Guest Clan Chat for Dungeoneering Floors | Accepting all tipiters who are Willing to Learn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mercifull 309 Posted March 16, 2011 Something maybe to consider... what is the point of hours and hours botting when you can get the resources faster by killing? Maybe its Jagex's way of trying to stop cheating? Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Amethyst_Gem 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Something maybe to consider... what is the point of hours and hours botting when you can get the resources faster by killing? Maybe its Jagex's way of trying to stop cheating? Bots kill stuff too. And players gather resources. Particularly sanpdragon/torstol, both of which you can now get several farm runs worth of in a single drop. As far as I can tell there weren't any herb run bots, meaning that a bot free activity has been replaced by one that bots have been doing for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amonitas 2 Posted March 16, 2011 Waaaaaayyyyy too powerful. There is no longer the need to train anything but combat anymore...I hope it gets nerfed, my hundreds of herb runs gonna be going to waste because someone gets 500 snapdragons from a green dragon.

gaaaaap 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Stop crying, all this does is balance the game out. Bots can collect all they want, but regular players can now also achieve something without having to play for 16 hours a day. Before someone starts the "more time-more privileges" argument, its invalid. Now all that's left is give the people that play more than 16 hours a day something as well? (Ever thought about a "preferred player" thing??) Like if you have 300+ days spend on rs that you will get some nifty perks. (*Auto item pick-up, drop all... etc?) I mean ppl that have played 300 days are not bots and most likely their accounts aren't RWT. (I mean the time the adventure log shows) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freakyhair 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Nothing stops bots, you can make bots for anything, RuneScape is quite a simple game. There are farming bots aswell. This ROW update is dumb IMO. Why change the drops? Slayer was already 20x more pfoitable than mining, and more fun. Now coal prices etc will drop making mining a really boring skill and less profitable. Can't see any plus points really except that slayers get richer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaaaaap 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Before someone starts the "more time-more privileges" argument, its invalid.what a convincing argument.Want to be convinced?Definition of game :A game is a structured activity, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more concerned with the expression of ideas Alot of time playing = fun as well. But not everyone thinks that way. So they are making the GAME more enjoyable, maybe the ACHIEVEMENTS in the game less, but the actual game more. In my eyes that is.

I'm not saying I like it - that's just the way it is. Let's take a look at some skills - Atk/Str/Def/Magic/Range/Pray/Hp/Summoning/Slayer are pretty much all combat skillsFarming was made for herblore and herbore for combatMining/Smithing was from the old days - where getting armor drops were pretty rare, so many relied on these skills to get their armorFiremaking - Other then an easy 99, it looks like to me - the only real reason to level this is of the hand cannonDG - I think we can agree that most people do this for the rewards (in the form of chaotic/prayer/etc)Fishing/Cooking - mainly used to get food for combat (back when the only real other way to get food was to buy kebabs in Al Kharid >.<)Construction - looks like a LARGE amount of people come just for the altars The whole game is tailored more or less towards combat. I think that by providing a lot of raw material - it'll entice people who combat all the time to maybe work on some skills that they've conveniently gotten the resources for.On the other end, it's also an incentive for people to who skill all day to come by and work on combat since that's where you can make the most money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you make something insanely profitable, people would flock towards it and just abuse it til it's dirt cheap (case in point: sharks - what used to be one of the best foods in the game has turned into something super cheap). So how do you get people to do it? Mix a ton of raw resource drop in something that isn't going to lose popularity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
