Powerfrog Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I'd be ok with that but it would just make everything buyable which people seem to hate. I'm good at and quite enjoy doing fight caves so I'd love to do it as predictably one of the best moneymaker things you can do in the game.

This is seriously ruining the potential for profitable pking for anything other than dharokers. True, but only if you PK at edge... Zzz. Also, the higher level you pk at the less viable void becomes to PK with. I remember PKing with void on a maxed barrows 'pure' during PvP world era and even with an ags it really wasn't too OP - The amount you had to eat vs a player in torags with whip and dds/claws reminded me of the playstyle for a 1 def pure... a few unlucky 0's and you're seriously on the backfoot, because the enemy is hitting reliably on your low def. Void is REALLY for darkbow rushing and easymode bridding. Make untradables drop coins? Probably more likely to happen than making them tradable...

Wkw Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 I'm all for having untradables vanish on death in the wild Maybe not vanish if you aren't skulled. If skulled, they'd go poof. I'm also in favor of making BA things/void tradable. That is a good idea. The first time you buy it you buy "right to use X plus a free X" Also.. when they add things.. THEY NEED TO ADD THE RANGE/MAGE PIETY EQUILIVANT It kind of peeved me when they made them a reward to dungeoneering, and then even more so when they removed it as a reward, refunded the points, and gave it to people who had unlocked piety. At the very least, add a spur off miniquest to unlock them. After you unlock piety, Merlin tells you to go to the wizards guild and see if you can best a few battlemages who have weaknesses to iban blast, each god spell, and each strike, bolt, blast, and wave. Beat them, you get the magic one. Merlin tells you to go to the ranger's guild and best a few elite archers, each of which are weak to bows, crossbows, darts, knives, throwing axes, and javelins. 1 Runescape player since 2005 Ego Sum Deus Quo Malum Caligo et Barathum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerfrog Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 "Piety for range" Problem with range is that it's not designed with PVP in mind at all. The dark bow has the KO power to 1 hit most people and you really don't want to make it even higher, while every other range tool has terrible PK power relative to melee and could use a buff. Make range piety, but nerf the dbow so it's max is 40-40 but it's more accurate or faster or something. "Edge PVP is bad" You can get into a fight with set rules (no protection prayers, no teams, no farcasting, tele when out, etc..) This is really good for a lot of people, and it's a large part of PVP, just because you prefer another part of the wild doesn't mean that edge pkers should suffer from a silly drop system. Your thing about Void... Yeah, it has lower defense, this is a fact. It's still incredibly imbalanced in void's favour if it's risking 50k a pop VS these relatively expensive torags or rune people. Forget the DDS and they essentially risk a strength amulet and 5k gp rune gloves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabbagad Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I really want auto-add to compost bin. And I would welcome alter sacrifice-all as well, it really is too much strain on the hands. I wish they made all afkable skills more consistent too, some things have make 1, 5, 10, x, some have 1, 5, all, etc. Everything should have 1, x, all. (Unless there's some item in particular where it's better to have a set number like 5 or 10? None come to mind though). Like fletching... only make 'x' for cutting but it has 'all' for stringing (I think), I mean why?

Birdd Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I'm not a big fan of new prayer idea. Dark Bow and ancients are already extremely powerful. Adding those prayers would make dark bow and ancients way too powerful which would require another rework to balance it, etc etc till it's not the same game at all. It's called meleescape for a reason, just suck it up. If you want an attempted balanced triangle, they spent 6 months or more developing one I believe, feel free to go try it out and tell me how good they are at balancing. I refuse to let Jagex try to balance anything in this game. As for those complaining about no risk because of untradeables, get out of edge wild, or train your levels till you're high enough where people use barrows, or learn to use smite, or DM people with a requirement of a cash stack. Untradeables are a pretty big risk too, if you die with fire cape and someone freezes you on your way back to it (happened to me) then bye bye 2 hours and a good bit of supplies getting it back.

Not so much about auto ecto-refilling, multiple fire-capes, nor flashing skill icons. Also need to consider that updates need to be minor as hell. Jagex haven't really said much about how much they are able to change interfaces. Like for example how for we got the toggleroof command instead of adding a button. I must say I really like the idea of more commands instead of building interfaces. Makes me feel like I'm playing a game held together by duct-tape in someones garage, which is an awesome feeling. If they did another poll for the mouse-wheel camera movement, but made it optional with a ::togglewheel command, I think it would probably pass.

Saradomin_Mage Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I think pkers didn't want the scroll wheel to pass because it's much faster than using the arrow keys.idk Not a big fan of Offer-X, but not opposed to it either.Wouldn't really want the flashing skill icons, especially with the changes that would come to the level up dialogue boxes.Status globes are way out for me lol.Don't really want bank tabs either, seem to prefer regularly sorting a long bank.Tool leprechauns noting produce - maybe.

Powerfrog Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Ooh ability to spin the fairy ring code faster so much! That's very frustrating as it is. "Rigour dark bow wasn't op" ...Well yes as it had to compete with turmoil dragon claws with +8 str rings, cape, +4 boots, +2 legs. And lots of life point boosts or damage reduction armour. What it boils down to is that the dark bow with rigour is more than capable of hitting quite a bit over 990 in OS. Unless you're constantly brewed up, you could be killed out of nowhere at any given moment. Not only is this a real possibility, there will be 100's more people trying to make it happen, which is really bad for the PK community as everyone hates rushers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why anyone would actually be against these, ecto and flashing are purely convenience or visual aid, and the fact you can't have multiple fire capes is a weird annoyance probably put in place to avoid a glitch where you got multiple capes per cave, or something like that, which is obviously no longer a problem. This whole "I hate easy scape i think having an inventory is OP, we should be forced to wear bronze daggers at all times" is getting old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 It boils down purely to preference I think. I'm not a fan of the cluttered level up dialogue box (half of it is CLICK THE FLASHING ICON TO SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW); the current version looks and feels cleaner. Ectophial refill is not a big deal either way to me; it's not terrible to get back if you forget it (and once you do, you'll never forget it again :P). Multiple fire capes - I simply preferred the idea of the fire cape being something that would require much investment to obtain, and that losing it should feel like a major setback as you drag your ass to the Fight caves again. If it turned to coins when you died or something, sure, it'd be nice to be able to own multiple fire capes (since you can't run back to reclaim it), but it feels like having a stack of fire capes in your bank trivialises it. Also not a fan of the placeholder mentality. Again, these are just preference points. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

Powerfrog Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 "Placeholder mentality"... What does that even mean? You literally require placeholders to have an organized bank. I do understand your point about maing you suffer through getting a new cape when you lose it, I don't agree that's a good thing, but i know what you mean. They need to make it vanish completely in wildy first and foremost, though, otherwise there is no loss in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheat Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I love the idea of making untradeables tradeable just because I would be able to make money from selling Torso's to people which would probably be ridiculously overpriced because of how slow most people are at BA. But the most important tweak they need to add is more bank space. Pedicabo ego vos et irrumaboMinigames: Level 5 in All Barbarian Assault Roles PM me in game or on these forums to play.

Powerfrog Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 It would be cool if you were able to make pseudo placeholders in your bank so only that item can ever go into that slot. You take your firecape out the bank and there is a greyed out firecape left in the same slot so your other items don't move. ...That's actually a really good idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
