>>565277940 i'm sure the spergs on the clue chasing discord have more optimized setups but this is the preset i run for everything might've gotten it from an anon years ago, idk definitely not all necessary if you just want to have fun but having teles everywhere is nice and get meerkat familiars too, they're somewhat pricey now but 100% worth it
>takes one month to get a new thread dead game but anyways, what are you guys training for dxp? im gonna try and get 99 crafting and construction stockpiling items right now
Just finished Dead and Buried. Was honestly a pretty good quest with a twist I really didn't expect until I got to the fucking finale with the map puzzle and it just fucking pissed me off relentlessly since I'm a brainlet.
>>565278635 Could you save space/resources with fairy rings by using grace of the elves set to fairy rings instead of portable fairy rings? Also is the main-hand just for bladed dive?
>>565448996 >EoS by 2030, inshallah wonder what the server costs for runegame are even if they just completely stopped updating it i reckon it has everquest staying power
>>565474152 necromancy should've let you res mobs that you kill to temporarily fight alongside you i'd take a swarm of goblins everywhere and watch them get stomped by bosses before joining in myself
>>565492759 current account is 40ish days from 20 year cape original account would have it but username contains the letters bra and so is flagged and requires a namechange which i kind of just dont want to do ever
>>565499368 yeah think there was a weird overcorrect with the censor at one point years ago and all sorts of words were being starred out seemingly at random
>>565448996 the last time i was in f2p when my bond ran out a group of like 10 trannies were talking about how they all quit because treasure hunter got removed
>>565517260 road to restoration is cool and all but uhhhhhhhhhhhh where is actual new content for the gamers to play? road to restoration will probably pay off in the future once they're done having to invest dev time into it and can get back to adding actual content to the game. gotta take a loss in 2026 to have a big pay off in 2027 (that's the hope anyways. i personally dont see it happening, but at least jagex is actually trying to plan for the future for once instead of focusing on immediate returns)
>>565520092 what a nightmare job that must be you finally buff other styles, then necro niggers quit and have a meltdown over it you remove th and no one new actually comes when all the os niggers said they all would for years if it was gone then the trannies get mad it's gone and quit for a net loss hilarious
>>565517260 >they change things that people have complained about for years >the people in question have already quit the game and aren't coming back If I wasn't already familiar with Jagex's incompetency, I would have said they were intentionally sabotaging the game
what boss should i learn after finishing raxxi log? I have masterwork/scythe for melee and cryptbloom for mage with tier 95s, but by the time i'm done with arraxi i should have about 2b cash for upgrades for the next boss
Power farmed Hunter from 60 to 75 today, then got Agility to 61 from 54. Gonna try and make the push to 80 over the next few days. Hopefully I'll have enough time to get Fletching and Summoning up too before the week is over.
>>565531865 >How relaxed is Araxxor/araxxi these days with TMW + Scythe? extreme chill, as long as you got sign up you can pretty much afk it, more so if its 2/3 because of how braindead they the boss is I've afked about 1500 so far, about half with crypt half with melee and i've been preferring melee lately still no pet but hopefully soon, rerolled everything that wasnt a leg or hilt
>>565534463 The most "toxic" thing I've ever seen is people arguing about trump and trannies in W84 while afking portables. This game is as good as it gets.
>>565534463 wait till you across osrs reddit trannies >rwt for 1.8b item regularly (like 20b rs3) >constantly get into arguements over anyone being better than them >if anyone has more xp/hours than them they are an X insult >some how it's only okay to play the game a lot if you never accomplish anything, whether hiscores or pvm related >every single retarded idea has to be filtered through what j1mmy or one of the morons said or its blasphemous honestly it's the worst game I've ever come across, rs3 is probably the best, some of the other tranny games like league of legends are close to osrs but still not as bad
The fuck is with all the lightning I'm seeing at the fort? I'm assuming it's people training combat, but my computer's too old to load all the people, so I just see the lightning flashing everywhere and not the people.
>>565620308 they should do half xp weekends to balance out the double xp weekends something to encourage players to do the inefficient things they dont normally do
>>565625561 more of a dutiful childless woman versus workshy racemixer debate imo to be honest though i took the screenshot while considering making a point about the gender ratio on ashdale but never bothered to actually count the npcs
>>565521254 its kinda sad i've thought about for a while but i think the best way to save runescape is to attract newer players with a lot of certain advertising you know how popular dungeon isekai yuusha anime is nowadays? when they rework dungeoneering they should focus on that and say shit like you can become a hero and explore dungeons in another world
i like how even after all the combat updates wars retreat is still like 95% necro niggers humiliation ritual >>565702968 sounds a lot better than whatever that dog shit skill is at these days, was so fun in 2012/2013 but they just abandoned it for whatever. I have no idea how you even bring in new players, osrs is the worst it's ever been in the history of that trash game, only gets worse every year with their entire audience unironically being redditors, and its always at a new player peak for whatever reason. I mean fucking sailing of all skills was added, i think that should explain my argument on it's own, they thought they were getting sea of thieves in a 2007 browser game
>faggot sparkles covering my glyphs >faggot monkey trying to touch my candle >faggot glyphs counting over my ritual site an shit What is it with gay spectrals trying butt in on my straight summonings?? Do I have to make a 4th ring of Anti-Faggot Glyphs?
>>565780034 I like that witan album, whimsical art the void between sounds like recovering a fond memory, not one that belonged to you, but a memory someone else had of you... I love the abstract feels that music can inspire ty anon

>>565790320 i didnt expect jagex to drop a dxp so im out of the loop what and where are the current methods for pushing combats to 120? i have access to almost everything i think
>>565799019 pvme.io has a guide for abyssal beasts, for melee at least the meta is killing abyssal beasts in the wildy (lvl 35) on a specific spot with the normal cannon (also on a specific tile) and if you can't find a free world, it's doing the same in the Senntisten asylum because it's instanced (but less XP due to not having the wildy box damage bonus). no need for aggro pots for both methods. i think ranged uses the same spot but can also use Abyssal savages for less XP. as for magic, probably also Abyssal beasts but i was already 120 years ago, so i didn't do it. for necro idk, i did armored phantoms with the platypus pet tile blocking method back in the days.
>>565799019 >>565802327 also abyssal beasts in lvl 32 wildy are highly contested, so it's really hard to get a spot, you can do them in the asylum instead or if you have their souls, in your player owned dungeon. or try do ravenous ghouls, it's more AFK because you can have infinite prayer with an amulet and they're also aggro'd.
it's just annoying that fagex didn't think this through when they updated all those combat skills to 120, because only the armoured phantom and asylum methods are easy to setup (although very dangerous for phantoms if you haven't watched how to place the platypus quickly to block the tile, coz they'll kill you very quickly otherwise), the rest is full of players afking to 120. we need better monsters for combat ffs.. XP rates are too low for so much XP.
>>565802327 >>565804360 fook mi, abyssals it is then i guess. that place is packed even when its not dxp, i cant imagine now. but thanks, ill copy the revo bars from pvme and try to hit at a low pop peak
>>565805150 the asylum is not packed because it's instanced. if you have tons of cash to spend, buy the Tumeken's Light instead of the Noxious Scythe for the melee style, because it's the most OP weapon in the game by FAR currently, it has passives that trigger AOE attacks all the time, it can also aggro everything around as long as one of the targets isn't dead. also very good bossing weapon.
>>565805150 >>565806793 also idk if the PVME bars are the best for most people because they usually assume you have BIS everything. personally i'm using this guy's bar : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_ZMR0SqEuQ he has new videos for every style and the hitpoints upkeep is very easy for his melee AOE bar. and if you have the money (20M per), you can buy a scrimshaw of sacrifice or a scrimshaw of corruption, if you have 10 ancient bones from player own ports and 250k dung tokens (to unlock the superior version), you can make the scrimshaw into a superior version (4 hours instead of 1), and it gives 50% more combat XP, it stacks with DXP except the 50% slayer XP which doesn't work. i currently have 3.1M per hour at wildy abyssal demons with cannon and superior scrimshaw of corruption + torstol incense sticks and pic related is my gear (with BIS perks), armor is masterwork and boots are normal laceration boots. only using the T95 prayer because i don't have the T99 one, also i'm using a bunyip just in case i forget to resip a pot or something and the penance aura (you can now multicast it for up to 60 minutes) and overload salve pot in a potion reservoir with lantadyme sticks (8 minutes each pots instead of 6 minutes)
How are we feeling about the new changes and all the free cosmetics? Also how is bond price RN and is it possible to farm in 12 hours like it used to be?
>>565838229 If you have 114 thieving you can do the Asuran Arsenal heist for nearly ~90m/hr(on average over time). see >>564064505 and the video in the reply to that post.
What are they doing for gold buying anyways isn't it like 2 weeks ban first offense? I'm not paying their prices when I can buy gold and pay like 6$ a month
>be hardcorevegan >best spooder time at like 3:50 on bottom path >get moderately drunk >drop time by 30s in a few kills heh surely nothing could go wrong if i continue
i've just hoped ALL the member game worlds to try to find a wildy lvl 35 spot for abyssal beasts, NONE are free. jagex please, abyssal beasts wildy instanced cave for combat XP !
>>565900528 the sentisten asylum is instanced and you can get like 2M+ XP per hour there with abyssal beast
>>565905219 Ambassador is the best boss for the darts, and the entire dungeon up to him is very easy with power armor necromancy, just don't forget to have the 20% chance to double a drop (works on uniques). i've doubled unique there with deathtouched darts. Nex isn't worth it anymore, everything is too cheap there. and proteans are gone forever in few months.
>>565917207 >no free spots jesus christ. I only have 600 sophanem feathers maybe I'll just spam slayer for a few days instead and keep working on that 120.
>>565923279 you have 10 days to spend 48 hours of DXP, it's not that bad, it used to be only 72 hours or something in literally 3 days. just don't forget to spend all of your spirit tokens from DXP because they're permanently removing them afterwards (protip : spend then on skilling outfits that are annoying to get).
>>565924428 thanks for the tip. I've been afking all my proteans while I wiki stuff and think about what I wana do. I'm only 4m away from max combats with only atk/str remaining. I think I'll be better off afking RC and WC since they are already so fucking slow that they were basically the reason I quit before. It sucks I want my max cape but all I really want to do is spend hours and hours mining and smithing the new masterwork stuff. Is that at all profitable? I quit and was barely playing around it's release. If possible I'd like to spend most of my time mining/smithing.
>>565924931 i'm not sure masterwork is that profitable, probably not, the masterbow sells above its price (i know coz i bought one few days ago), i know doing the new heists for thieving are very profitable even without uniques. if you want full AFK, i'd do the good ol' archeology spots with tetracompass parts, sell tetracompass rewards, and materials later on and chronotes, it gives lots of money. mining is pretty afkable and if you take the ore box and also porters you'll get money, smithing idk, i've been maxed for years.
>>565928103 the Jagex launcher is better though, because you get additional time for the AFK timer, and if you play OSRS you can access both games instantly (and Runelite too). oh and there's a Dragonwilds tab too but who cares.
>>565932662 I found out on accident today. If you login with steam and go to buy sub through the game, you can use steam bux. My CS cases finally doing something.
Running to mage bank in deep wildy with low combat stats to buy cosmic runes to make 1000 travellers necklaces because they sell for 18k each and I don't know why
>>565933085 meh i don't use Steam, because i know that early when they launched the Jagex launcher, people that got hacked on Steam would get their Jagex account hacked as well (i know people are stupid but still). i'd rather not have two points of entry instead of one.
>>565935110 i was once making magic amulets because dropping sapphires felt like a waste and didn't want to walk over to the GE so started trying to hawk them in lumbridge this behavior got me invited to a clan
>>565881309 i dont give things away for free, i only "gift" something in exchange for something else. if this nigga can't afford a bond with money, he's gonna have to pay for it a different way (using his mouth to satisfy my penis)
>>565946809 i spent like 600M on BIS invention perks last week, the worse part is the ilujankan comps because it's so damn long to get a weapon and armor set to lvl 9 and disassemble it all for nothing, i've failed tons of Aftershock 4 + X combos...
>>565954762 Yeah honestly I think it's a really cool way to recycle and keep the prices up on end game gear, but it's too rng. It kinda sucks when you get a nox scythe and it's not "good" until you spend hours on sidequests for components and good rolls on equilibrium
i used a piece of magic notepaper to wipe my ass after taking a shit and now my asshole is noted. i took my noted asshole to my local bank and the bank teller called me a faggot and then asked me if i wanted to open a new credit card but i figured i shouldnt do that since i already have five maxed out credit cards (i whale on gacha games for anime girls)
>>565316565 6 years ago there were no updates in sight, more of the same on the horizon, and osrs had questhelper. I hated every second of osrs. coming hvme to hotbar skilling has been so nice. and I missed presets.
i wonder how many people quit because they couldn't hide how much of a failure they were anymore seeing niggas at wars with absolute bis mage and a kiln cape will never not be funny, especially the ones with like 30m hp xp and 15m magic xp
>>565952031 already got construction, crafting, hunter, and dung to 99 trying to get firemaking next and if i have some time left i'll work on rc maybe i tried doing cooking and fishing but they are so fucking slow oh my god
thieving is my new favorite skill wtf are these traders on?
>>566067179 Wilderness with skull speeds it up a bit. I used every single lamp I had on agility, and every quest reward too. I barely had to train it until the 80s. Silverhawks are also very good. the way I finished it off was dxp + silverhawk + bonus xp and you can set up your screen at Hefin Agility so that if you never move your mouse you only click 1 spot.
>>566014395 id colonize this niggress tbdesu >>566020861 wtf did they say to get muted? you noobs always leave out the best/funniest/most important parts whenever you tell stories in these threads
>>566067179 jack of trades and silverhawks fuck yeah too bad they're fixing the game and you might actually have to train agility by being agile someday
>>566069476 better afk 200m while you can, first they came for the dailyscapes and i did not speak up for i wasn't scaping daily; then they came for the auras and i did not speak up for i only use maybe four of them, then they came for the afks and there was no one spoke up because they were afk
>>566051807 to further elaborate those skills are pinned because several skills have had their non-virtual cap increased and these ones i can comfortably do in f2p only need 1.4m mining then i'll probably pin crafting or fletching
first time playing this game and so far the quests have been quite enjoyable relative to my osrs questing experience :) is there a cc for this general like there is for osg?
>>566110254 The ironman guide is probably optimizing for xp and speed. If you are enjoying the quests I'd recommend staying away from sixth age quests until you've completed The World Wakes and its "follows events of" requirements. Though that does require you to complete most of the quests you've already done in osrs.
>>566110739 if i veer from the guide i fear i will lose track of everything but thank you i didnt think to even check how many questlines have been expounded on from osrs
i thought i'd have enough time to go from 106 strength to 120 during but i was wrong, still managed 117 so far but at most i'll hit 118 before this DXP ends. i wouldn't be against a 48 hours DXP time like we have now but two whole weeks instead of 10 days, i just don't have time for this anymore...
>>566170529 Ascending saturated eternal magic equipment. Saturated eternal magic staves are like 4.2m a pop right now. It's extremely expensive though.
>>566174727 Starting from inert is cheap. Buying the saturated staves, which you just 15 minute afk at Ourania altar with no essence needed, is mad expensive. You'd also want amulets of the expert to speed it up. I calculated that it would cost roughly 5.5b from level 120-200m. It's the rc equivalent to just buying +5 armour sets and doing burial equipment.
>>566175367 Oh then you can't even do that anyway. You need at least 100 rc to start with any eternal magic equipment. Then 109 to get the most benefit out of staves. Unfortunately there's no sub level 100 expensive method outside of runners as far as I'm aware.
>>566030042 lunar and sunfury tier 2 I did the math and you need almost 250k tokens for both sets fully upgraded I'm going for only lunarfury I'm like 75k tokens away
>>566128149 where is the dangposter actually what i wanna know is what's gonna be richfag's reaction to the player avatar revamp? is he gonna log in and see dang's new appearance on rs3 and kill himself because his waifu looks different? will he log in and jerk off until he dies of dehydration because he approves of her new appearance? i need to know how deep is autism runs
>>566109832 rsgscape >>566139103 >YES, PURPLE. THAT'S GOOD. ORIGINAL. CREATIVE. SOMEONE GIVE MOD GOONSESH A RAISE FOR HIS BRILLIANT IDEA. >ok, now we need to work on his sister. color ideas, fellow jagex moderators??? >uh... blue? >WE ALREADY DID BLUE, MOD RETARD. >no but like, it'd be blue but like... a different blue >WE ALR- wait. wait, no, that's genius. mod retard, you're a fucking genius. from this day forward we will dub you mod genius.
>>566149329 It's so fucking tiring how hard companies bend over backwards to appease groups that only make up single digit percentages of the total population. The only people that feel offended over women having tits are troons and extremely ugly obese women with body issues, yet Jagex goes out of their way to make them feel "comfortable" at the expense of over 90% of the playerbase. When will it end

"Dang" doesn't return any results on the RS3 or OSRS hiscores. what's that all about? has dang been a fever dream all this time? did he get banned from hiscores for botting (lol?) am i really schizophrenic and just imagining everything? WAS THERE EVER EVEN SOMEONE REFERRED TO AS THE "BDJPOSTER" IN THESE THREADS? WHAT THE FUCK IS REAL LIFE IM FUCKING LOSING MY MIND
I almost made it to 96 after all the proteans, and I'm still a about 55k tokens away from the tier 2 lunarfury set. Now on to using 100 boxes of skilling dummies
Is this really all Divination is? Like, it's not annoying such as something like Agility is to level up, but this is just fucking nothing. This is just "number go up" and nothing else.
>>566215415 At least WC and Fishing give you something useful. Maybe I'm just dumb, but the only worthwhile use for the energy I've gotten so far the past 50 levels is just making it so you get slightly more EXP doing divination already.
>>566216237 It's a wierd thing because it's never worth it to farm your own energy. But you will need shitloads of the higher tier energy for invention and divine charges.
>>566219392 you WILL play the minigame and you WILL say "thank you for this skill that's definitely a skill and not a shitty minigame, big daddy jagex", NIGGER
>can't wear necro gear unless you make it first >meaning you can't just buy the next upgrade >meaning trying to sell them is retarded because nobody really loses any of their shit in this game >be me >trying to make power gear and accidentally make a second set of t70 tank because the menu automatically selects t70 tank instead of the power armor you were previously looking at when you have the mats for power Needless to say I am fucking mad I wasted my time making t60 from scratch and I blame Jagex.
War's retrat is bad for the game, because it trivializes teleport unlocks and items. Also forces bossing to only focus on singular speedkills and completely removes the nieche of more defensive/economical bossing for longer trips.
>>566258272 I'm a new player and I'd fucking hate it if War's Retreat wasn't in the game. I killed Chaos Elemental over 200 times trying to get a Dragon 2-Hand and gave up. Can't imagine having to make a boss run every time for something like Barrows just to get kicked in the dick with twenty dry runs in a row.
>>566300742 I got Hunter, Fletching, Agility, and Herblore to 75. Summoning to 60 and Thieving to 70 while getting Divination up a bit too. I'm still in the mid-game of RS rn, I'm pretty sure, but the double XP really help a fuckton of time for me to focus on grinding bosses and doing a shitton of quests all the new gains got me.
https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/the-curious-case-of-the-dropped-frames-and-other-microstutters tldr the stuttering people had earlier this year was caused by grass having 5 different LODs.
made this acc at the start of april and ive been f2p locked. its okay i guess. i kinda despise all of the iron ccs ive talked in. rs3 players are such weaklinges and bitches. hate em all honestly. same with osrs players though.
anyway i downloaded a TON of rsps and im pretty sure i downloaded a keylogger so i may have to format pc and make a new acc lmao. it's so over.
but yeah idk i guess rs3 is alright? like, i would play osrs but that shit is fucking stupid honestly. i kind of hate it. it's just so fucking slow because "that's the game okay! it has to be this way!" and kids will use 1000 runelite plugins but god forbid they add a toolbelt or literally anything actually useful. luckily i just don't have to play that shit
jeez our game really is just gone isn't it? i did see the player count was like 200k and honestly i am not surprised. price increase and just stagnation is to be expected. especially when people unironically run like 10 alts. it's over.
>>566345201 This is just not true, sadly. Nobody new is joining RS3. They just aren't. And honestly, I can't blame them. Nobody in their right mind wants to grind all of the slop content in this game. Not even I want to, lol.
>>566345365 anecdotal but i started playing rs3 about a week ago after getting burnt out from osrs leagues and i have been really enjoying it especially with the changes so far. i tried rs3 a couple years ago and dropped it in like an hour because of the bloat and daily stuff but its a lot more manageable now. i still really do dislike all the daily management things like anechronia, pof, pop, etc
>>566344702 osrs is quite possibly the worst player base of any game ever expect one of those games that's literally just trannies like in the fgc It was always bad but after like 2018 when the mobile faggots came in it was complete over
At least on rs3 i almost never see trannies anymore because they all switched to osrs
>>566352920 It's honestly extremely complicated to explain.
I actually do not hate the core of what OSRS is, ie the Gower era. Contrary to popular belief I do believe the Gowers were geniuses. In fact, 2004scape highlights some of their best game design. OSRS blog posts constantly mention removing the "friction" involved in doing things. But what people don't get is that by doing this you have removed everything that made OSRS fun.
If you are going to "remove friction" you have to full send it like RS3 does. OSRS wants to have "QOL" ie 1000 runelite plugins but doesn't want to give you a toolbelt. I mentioned this earlier but it's just fucking true.
OLD RS was getting killed by a fucking evil chicken just because. That was soul. Or your axe breaking and bees attacking you while chopping trees. Back then, the goal wasn't 99. It was to just be in the world. The game was amazing back then, imo. I've played some of 2004scape and it's honestly pretty great but their Discord requirement is fucking stupid.
You didn't even have a home teleport back then. Admittedly I am okay with having the home teleport but it's kind of kino to not have one if I am being honest. There is a lot of magic in those older years that we just will never get back because efficiency has been the bane of the MMO genre.
And to answer the question, I hate sailing because it just does not feel like what the Gowers would have put into the game. Sailing would honestly be more suited to RS3, which I consider antithetical to the Gower vision, but able to stand on its own legs at this point. It's hard to explain why I dislike OSRS but like RS3, even I am able able to truly contextualize it.
I did kind of enjoy OSRS back in 2014 but when Zeah came out I basically just lost all interest. When I first saw A Friend using OS Buddy I kind of knew it was the beginning of the end.
>>566352920 its completely isolated from the rest of the game because the jmods are scared of changing metas that have been in place for 10 years like 3t4g will always be the best mining xp/hr so we will never get an actual fun high effort mining method that gives the same or more xp as 3t4g
>>566353750 >I actually do not hate the core of what OSRS is, ie the Gower era. literally all the best content on that game is from vanilla, or years before like classic. It's extremely based and i use to just make new accounts to replay the core gameplay, but nuosrs is so fucking cancer bad that it's unfixable because the entire core audience are redditors who never played before 2020, maybe 2018 at earlier but still larp with the 'i played for 20 years" shit because they logged on twice in 2007 i've wanted patchless vanilla 05/06/07 for a decade and before i completely quit that game i'd talk about that with some people and they'd actually flip out on me over it because always 'le everything has to be for u" argument
there is no saving a game with a playerbase that's unironically entirely made up of redditors, who are allowed to vote, that's like asking niggers if they want free watermelon and expecting them to say no blowpipe was bis in 95% of the areas of the game at 3m and they absolutely lost their minds when it got nerfed quoting some insane capitalist argument about the .1% lmao imagine working on that game and trying to do anything good when those are the people who get to vote
>>566187901 Still around. My original Dang Lora was SD 1.5. I made an SDXL version, but I fucked up the training somehow and her hat ended up being super wonky. One day I'll get around to making a an illustrious version, or maybe hold out for Anima to get better.
I could actually see RS3 going entirely free to play (making all content free) at some point. This would be a last ditch effort to save the game. They could simply adopt the Fortnite model and sell expensive cosmetics to make up for lost revenue. And trust me, people would buy them. Will they really do this? MAYBE. I am just so tired of having to pay a fucking subscription. "B-But bro just grind bonds!" I've done that before but it's not really sustainable unless you have no life and if you get bored and want to take a break it's back to f2p.
>>566439217 >RS3 goes entirely F2P >People make 10 alts to constantly afk money-making methods like archaeology to sell the materials >The price of everything drops as a bunch of resources are now entering the game at significantly higher rates than before is this based or not
why are rs3 players the absolute worst? i genuinely get triggered when i have to interact with the star find friends chat. or any ironman clan chat. these people are just so fucking weak. how do you even get like this?
rs3 is dead. and honestly? maybe that's a good thing. we had a good run. i do not think rs3 was a bad game, but when you neglect a game in favor of mtx for over a decade - this is what happens. death.
I'm like level 70ish with a Necro pick. Is it better to mine Rune materials to Smith for EXP in terms of time mining or should I just keep smithing Orikalkum?
>>566439217 >I am just so tired of having to pay a fucking subscription. paying for membership in 2026 humiliation ritual learn how to do basic pvm like what nigger you can do arraxor with like 50m in gear and farm a single leg for 2 bonds what do you people even do on this game?
>>566478051 i dont play rs3. why would i want to? there's nothing particularly gripping about it. you're probably the only one actually grinding bonds. one of the 3 players left, even.
>>566478051 also i only play ironman. bonds are something i think killed the spirit of osrs and rs3. its all about gp now. redditors buy bonds and skip the game. where is the fun in that? main was fun to play back in actual 2007.
>>566478476 getting membership for free is a side thing, i like pvming to finish logs but i understand your point the majority of niggas i see are gp buyers at this point in time, if i see 1 more soccer mom im going to lose my mind
>>566478923 >bonds are something i think killed the spirit of osrs and rs3. its all about gp now. redditors buy bonds and skip the game. where is the fun in that? there isn't any fun in that, that's why they are called retards it's like getting a rank on a moba by getting boosted, it's fucking retarded and the people who do it are the exact same as gp buyers in their reasoning "i could do it myself but it's a waste of time"
>>566478923 >>566478929 >>566479418 Bonds don't give you quest progress, skill (not the xp kind), boss kills, titles, or achivements. They can only reduce the time you have to spend grinding and that's a good thing.
>>566481170 i don't want bonds removed, i'd lose my free membership but it's funny to point out what people buy them for anon go to wars any world at peak time and some one is always there in bis range or mage w/ kiln capes even though you can afk basic zuk with full revolution if you are barely paying attention hell even i did it on my second attempt with basically no pvm experience, i would of got it first time but i didnt realize the zuk button had to be spammed because of channeling, or i would of did it first time yet we live in a world where people can't do it in absolute max, so what are they even doing with what they buy? same thing is true on osrs, you'll see people with 20b in gear(conversion) and kill zulrah for 1m an hour
>>566481512 one day i'll remember to correct myself on that, but i guess today wasn't the day unfortunately maybe i'm retarded and that explains why i like this game
anyways going to get 120 def soon which is pointless because untrim slayer looks better than everything else
>>566530008 what's even the point of the wilderness anymore? Literally nothing forces you to enable pvp. They removed the skull from RC. They removed warbands. etc. etc.
>>566535658 it's just a slayer den. and all of the bosses are genuinely some of the weakest bosses in the game nowadays. i say we just restore the entire wilderness to a green plain. so much space we could use for new content. INSTEAD OF LEVEL 100 SLAYER MOBS WALKING AROUND. AHHHHHH. FIRE THE PERSON WHO DESIGNED THE NEW WILDY
Old RuneScape is such a miserable game and RS3 is better. There is nothing remotely fun about OSRS. It's worse than watching paint dry. RS3 has actual quality of life like lodestones, the toolbelt, the money pouch. It feels like you can actually DO things. OSRS is like yeah we are just going to make this a chore and you're going to secretly hate it but you're going to wear a social mask where you pretend it's fun. Oh and don't forget about the 100,000 bots. I would rather play a dead game like RS3 than play OSRS.
>>566568370 I fucking love the metal bank so much, man. Smithing in OSRS is literally just skilling for the sake of it, and it's otherwise not only impractical to level up Smithing, but doing so requires so goddamn much wasted time for no fucking reason.
>>566568370 of course it's miserable, it's a game that's entire audience are redditors they all work meaningless office jobs, afking the most retarded shit ever on osrs,while browsing reddit 12 hours a day and then speak down to people who they feel play too much, it's incredibly strange i know a gay furry who maxed an iron on there in like 14 months, and he spends at least 16 hours a day arguing with people on reddit about the most retarded topics you could possibly find im unaware of a single game that's more of a humiliation ritual than osrs is
Pic related use to be common place before mobile faggots ruined it and made it gay and retarded
okay i have decided. its time to make a main on rs3 to grind bonds. im no longer giving jagex a cent. ive only had an iron for a while but having to pay real money to play iron is a humilation ritual.
it seems I'm gonna be 7k tokens away from lunarfury tier 2 at this rate as I ran out of proteans and dummies anyone know the dxp spirit spawn rate? If it's around 10% as it seems, then I'm fucked with only 5 hours remaining
>>566592719 the math says I have a 1 in 5 million chance to spawn the 55 or so spirits I need in 5 hours, so it's a no-go I have 36 minutes remaining so I'll spend those on whatever then go to bed but hey I got 5 99s, 6 skills close and others up to 101-104 so it was a very good dxp
is it just me or is it kind of common now for GE prices to be off by huge amounts? I had an item listed at 15m only sell for 12m. And like materials might be listed for 8k but go for like 2k more or less. Usually the prices were spot on even for high tier stuff?
>>566621915 not familiar with osrs but it used to just be the 5% i guess people complained that because the price adjusts with each press pressing 5% four times doesn't actually get you 20% but personally at that point you should probably just type a price, like 5% margins are plenty
>>566622617 >listed at 1k each but the guide price will be like 150. see that's what i mean you'd be better off putting in 1k manually than spamming +20% 30 times in a row
>>566625116 yeah but like, other stuff is still way out of sync on the GE. I know it's DXP but my guildy spent double the guide price (150m) on a runic attuner on Saturday.
>>566625845 maybe what we need are insta-sell and insta-buy buttons that just tick down/up 1gp at a time could have a separate coin pouch for GE trades to make it work without bankrupting players accidentally
>>566627405 yes but you know some retard will press instabuy on some obscure item that exactly one person has put in for a maxstack and spend months emailing jagex until it's "fixed"
>>566593274 I forgot to use the tokens but store is still up so that's nice I managed to buy everything except the sun and lunar upgrades fuck you jagex
>>566640575 Ghostly soles with shark outfit on eat and bait and switch relic, archaeology with a weight on the space bar, starbloom equipment that isn't starbloom bodies, ascending saturated equipment, smithing with autoheater and light form, construction at fort fortinthry, crystals with tiranwn quiver 3 for prayer
I need to make more money, finish maxing, and do a shitload of quests. I also need my fight kiln capes. It's been 2 hours afking ivy and I can't decide what to do first.
>>566568370 >>566571994 the thing OSRS has over RS3 is the player count and also the fact that power creeping is rampant in RS3 unlike OSRS where most weapons and armor are still revelant years after they're introduced. it's kinda annoying to spend close to 1Bil on an armor in RS3 and one year later a new one is released and suddently your previous armor value is worthless and you lose big money, happened to me plenty of times. in OSRS the value is usually consistent and sometimes it sells even better when the meta sligthly changes.
i player both games and i'd say RS3 is better for the skilling and some bosses while OSRS is better for the feeling of progression that matters, the multiplayer elements (like Barbarian assault and most minigames have tons of people), sailing (which we had that in RS3) and raids like Tomb of Amascut. elite dungeons in RS3 mostly sucks, i hate the Zamorak boss fight, but our Zuk fight (even hard mode) is way more fun than the Zuk of OSRS. and RS3 had been plagued by the fags and redditors as well, can't say a thing during DXP at W84 without being muted the same evening by a faggy player moderator... even when they admitted themselves very recently that most of the player base is 30+ years old, yet we are only allowed to type like little kids, fuck that shit.
>>566645647 fight kiln capes are very easy and pretty fast and you can learn normal mode Zuk to get the better versions, then put on necro tank armor, tank summoning pet, vampyrism aura spell (stacked) and do hard mode Zuk for the best cape.
>>566647713 now do this with T95 necro pre nerf and post nerf prices, do this with the grico codex, the magic gear in general, etc... luck of the dwarves used to cost 80M not 40M because it has always been tied to the price of the incomplete hydrix (reaper tasks) and now that they allow people to get the reaper tasks they want everyday via the combat achievements, the price of it is only 35M... the only things that really hold up are things tied to invention perks, that's why the noxious weapons are still expensive, otherwise only the scythe would be worth something (second best halberd) but the rest is already outclassed by much cheaper gear.
>>566650143 don't play a fucking ironman. I swear to god that shit with B0aty was such a monkey's paw. >revive the franchise >trading becomes a negative in a free market game
>>566652459 i actually maxed an iron on rs3 years ago and have now returned as a hcim
i dont hate ironman mode personally
but i do mostly agree with you despite this. ironman mode being the GO TO METHOD to enjoy an MMORPG is just kind of asinine. if your """main""" mode is not worth playing something has gone wrong.
and you have to admit that the rampant mtx and people skipping the game with bonds is an issue. bonds are still such an easy way to breeze through the game.

in other news
the new dungeoneering update is honestly disappointing in my opinion. like yeah they made the skill better, but that's a low bar when you simply haven't updated the skill at all for over 10 years. at least it will be much faster now if you do larges in a group i guess. if you can even find a group LOL
our game is so fucking dead i can't even pretend otherwise anymore.
Does the collection log just suck in RS3? There's one for bosses but I can't find anything for pve stuff? Do I have to quick chat drops from Asuran Arsenal? That's the only way?
>>566652781 yes. because RS3 DID IN FACT neglect the core game in favor of MTX slop for over 13 years. there is so much that has just never been touched up or addressed in this game. and people just don't like to admit that.
>>566654229 i am NOT doing that. i respect myself too much in these days. i see kids with characters for every game mode. hell even 2 characters for every game mode. and like 7 alts on top of that and im like wow, that sounds like a "Recipe for disaster!"
>>566645647 I still need to get my fight cape too. The DXP week took up all my time and I haven't done any serious combat or quests at all since it started.
i feel like im creeping up on a mute in rs3. you know whats crazy? you can kind of just feel these things. jagex is heavy on censorship. you will NOT speak your mind. it's just a fucking joke at this point.
it really is indicative of the game when i havent been able to get a single f2p dungeoneering group going the entire day. f2p SHOULD have some level of activity. this game is just completely dead at this point.
>>566674854 i did a dungeon to see the changes firsthand a couple hours ago there were half a dozen other players at daemonheim so you could probably find a group with a little world hopping
>>566673248 we use to be able to call people nigger and faggot without being muted that was until C Engineer the osrs literal faggot yter trended on reddit/xitter for saying it shouldn't be allowed like 4 people on that game have forever ruined it forever and it spews into here sometimes its so fucking tiresome >>566673738 british people get what they deserve lets be honest
okay im ngl i decided on a whim that im just gonna quit rs3 entirely. what the fuck is the point of playing this game if nobody plays? its literally labeled an mmorpg. i cant even find a fucking group to do dungeoneering lol. it's so over.
also i am stuck in a loop of constantly deleting accounts. i have outright DELETED many accounts. but i keep coming back because i like games that never end like runescape.
but the problem is that runescape keeps getting worse :/
both osrs and rs3 honestly do suck but i have nothing else to play.
>>566687238 i do that with every other game all the time i've probably afked 500 dota 2 games in 2 years and reinstalled 400 times you just gotta quit and find something you actually like because you clearly hate the game more than you like it
as to what else to play, who knows. There has never been a worse time to a gamer considering quite literally every single comp game has been destroyed, and most mmos are for forever chads like rs3,lord of the rings online or those asian mmos like ragnarok where everyone who plays has been here for decades
>>566683909 dead game niggers are so fucking stupid. And then you keep trying to come back and you're mad when everyone who hasn't quit are multi billionaires with 120s from doing 4 dxp a year
rs3 advertises itself as an mmorpg. it wouldn't matter if it was a dead singleplayer game think ratchet and clank going commando or some dragon ball game on the ps2. it's not an mmorpg.
a dead mmorpg is not worth playing. if they made all of those old dead minigames soloable - hey i might do them! if they didn't pretend like dungeoneering was group content it wouldn't be a big deal anymore. it's not group content.
but they do. they advertise dungeoneering as group content and they advertise rs3 as an mmorpg.
and honestly? dungeoneering is NOT group content. rs3 is NOT an mmorpg.
it is a singleplayer game with social elements. you look at the player count. it says 20,000. but honestly? i bet it's closer to 7,000. i do not even want to attempt to hypothesize how many alts people have. and i bet it's a lot. i've seen people walking around with 10+ while doing div, woodcutting, archaeology, the list goes on.
this game is dead it really is. which is okay to a degree. if i turn off all chats and treat it as a single player game - which as i said earlier, it basically is - it's entirely serviceable. but there does come a sense of disillusionment.
if you can't understand even a lick of what i'm feeling i don't know what to say.
>>566692671 5 man dungeoneering was and still is the meta way to level it's not my fault you can't find people to do it with. You even say you're in an active ironclan but you were just begging for leeches and every1 told you to solo cause who wouldn't. Cry more.
>>566692671 >it is a singleplayer game with social elements. you look at the player count. Dawg, I don't know how to tell you this easily since you're very clearly extremely mentally ill to be stuck in a dead general for a game you seemingly have loathed for years, but that's an issue for every MMO on the market right now. Most of the time, it's not even the game's fault, it's just the way people typically play games itself has changed. Even in my brief time playing OSRS as a new player, the only times people talked to me outside of the hubs like GE or the gobbos by Lumbridge, it was to just dump a couple millions worth of free shit at me and then immediately fuck off. Hell, one of the reasons both Scapes are so popular is because they're the closest thing to a true single-player MMO that are big right now. I picked OSRS first over giving WoW a try because I didn't want to deal with the stress of having to find people for dungeons and shit and could everything at my own time.
TL:DR, you're basically complaining about something that's affecting the entire MMORPG genre as a whole because you're stuck in your own personal bubble and have no knowledge of what's outside Plato's cave.
let's all just take a deep breath and remember that Runescape is supposed to bring us together. But also remember I'm skilling and i'd prefer not to be bothered for the next 3 weeks.
>>566692671 Yeah, very interesting, but what does any of that have to do with my hard poos? Listen bud, you dont know what suffering is until you have had a hard poo stuck halfway out of your ass. That is a real ordeal.
>>566692671 >a dead mmorpg is not worth playing. if they made all of those old dead minigames soloable - hey i might do them! if they didn't pretend like dungeoneering was group content it wouldn't be a big deal anymore. it's not group content.
anon dung came out in 2010, by 2011/2012 half my friendslist were 200m in it back when the skill was like 1/5 the xp p/h and 50x more effort everyone who liked it finished it over a decade ago, kept going until selling floors died and then moved on everyone who hated it used th keys/beach/ that other method i forgot the name of and skipped it entirely because it was pointless for 10 years your a little late to the party on that one the idea of reviving and patching shit like dung is that if one day new fags do come then you will actually have a reason to do it now that you can't just skip it entirely with th or other retarded methods
>>566721551 Really? But like, most of your time is spent getting requirements for 200 hours of questing and mini games. The grinding only holds you back from doing even more mundane activities that require full attention and can't be skipped. And those are the most important unlocks in the game. Any skill under lvl 80 should be mega boosted by now. TH solved a problem. Now we have a problem but no TH. Love it or hate it daily quests are still here because the players demanded more XP. I doubt this is our last dxp.
>>566744728 dxp just ended and surplus is being dumped correct answer is to chuck em in the loot tab and sell when the price normalizes or another dxp rolls around
>>566668927 damn, i knew i should have saved it when i last saw it in these threads but i didn't... i miss when osrs was unfiltered before the troons took it over and started crying over "mean words"
>>566675469 is C engineer gay irl? he sounds gay, but then again all swedish people sound gay. but yeah, i heard he was the reason OSRS started censoring words like "retarded" again even if you have the profanity filter turned off. like, what's the fucking point of the profanity filter if shit gets censored anyways? just so i can say "boobs" and "penis" without getting censored like a fucking 11 year old? i fucking hate censorship, man. i hate faggots.
>>566741736 with the player model rework looming maybe some old models will get looked at not so long after personally i liked that the retro armors were all identical save for color
>>566191268 After doing a few I noticed: >i don't have to switch ring passives anymore, just invest >i'm getting more tokens and xp per clear on very low progress
nah runescape 3 is dead. and im glad. good riddance. this shit was long overdue. we are at all time lows. getting lower by the week. it's actually over this time.
>>566748803 He must be a faggot to act the way he does >cant call your friends retards in game anymore racism and chudism ended >>566777086 jesus christ
any historians here able to answer an odd question? when was multi combat put into runescape? imm recall it being around 2005, and thus after shades of morton’s release which is why shades was so janky. i cant find a news post detailing it outside of this https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Update:RS2_Combat_system_explained which seems to imply multi will *eventually* be implemented but doesnt say when if you happen to remember or have any info please help
>>566769263 arch was such a kino skill to do i think i only had 2 99s before i just 120'd it because it was so chill to do >goes from that to negromancy how did they manage that
im okay with wars being removed if they just implement it into POH. having a free boss portal for no reason is a bit dumb even if people want to think otherwise.
i really just don't get these people am i suppose to believe this guy pvmed his way to 4b in gear but cant get a basic zuk kc or how hes using poison gloves on arraxor are these the people who are angry th got deleted? why aren't these niggers just using negromancy if they are fine humiliating themselves already
>>566788707 i've had it for years, probably lost a hundred mil or more but no ragrets, it's nice i wouldn't prioritize it over most other utility things though but assuming you have 1.6m you've bought most other stuff
>>566790575 I've seen 3 of those people alone today i suppose some might be clue fags but it is so funny to see them so often u can quite literally full afk zuk, it's so braindead with negromancy or cryptbloom which isn't even expensive anymore
they miss out on all the fun of grinding bosses with shit gear and every drop feels great because its another piece thats finally upgraded
>>566785950 so should i enter daemonheim to get refunds on all my shit? Do they give you the 1 time floor rewards for spwaning in or do i need to actually clear them?
>>566795017 surprised private servers would resort to keylogging. You'd think they'd want their players to be happy so they'd spend more on whatever bs microtransactions they offer.
>>566795435 i played basically ALL of those custom RSPS. like if u search runescape private servers on google i just went down the list and played them all. i had fun ngl but it came at a high cost.
It turns out in the time /rsg/ was dead tranny fowl got fired who will represent the faggots on runescape now? Who will post videos on twitter wearing a tail butt plug now? mod ash? mod blkwitch? oh no
>>566797330 Jack too so we no longer have to worry about him reworking Karamja for being "problematic" I just wish he got fired before Dead and Buried.
Thinking of resubbing and playing for maybe a month or two. Is it worth coming back? I quit because of all the FOMO shit they kept pushing and the rising cost of bonds. As a F2P player it was almost impossible to earn a bond every week now using in-game methods. Did prices for bonds drop yet? Or I might just open my wallet and play for a bit, but it's fucking expensive at $20CAD a month.
>>566804742 Grinding bonds is feasible if this is the only game you play. You can even have a life outside of the game. My point being - just buy a few months of membs with irl cash - get to endgame, and grind zammy. problem solved.
Or like I told someone else. Just kill Rasial over and over and over and over and over. It's extremely easy. Redditors can't do Rasial, though. You're not a Redditor, right?
>>566806135 >Redditors can't do Rasial, what can redditors do? afking zuk normal mode is too hard arraxi is too hard i guess they kill god wars bosses? giant mole?
>>566790483 i was going to do another one frankensteining all the melee armors together into something pretty but they are quite dissimilar from each other if i dont also do some recolouring
>>566806135 If I'm going to pay for membership with real money anyways I would just make an Ironman. But it's going to suck grinding everything again. And Ports. I hated doing Ports. And I lose my 20 year Veteran Cape, even though the 10 year one looked better. But I guess redoing the quests might be fun. I don't know, now I'm stuck whether I want to make an Ironman or keep playing my main.
>>566838914 if you have a main play it. I did the ironmeme thing a few years ago in rs3 and I'm pissed that I've got quests done there that aren't done on my main. I don't even remember which email i used.
>>566839278 you will never get past 80 in a production skill on ironman even in rs3. And don't forget this game the worst levels are early. Some of the methods in rs3 are twice as slow as osrs.
Does anyone know if Trah hour is still worth doing in priff? Harmonized rune was my favorite money maker before the mining update. I really should have been buying up 20m bonds when I was able to make 4-5m / hr back then.
>>566839278 Ironman is easy af in RS3 the other guy kinda baited you ngl. I only play RS3 HCIM and it is significantly better than a main ever thought of being.
Both games also suffer from what I call mode bloat. RS3 has main, iron, gim.
Osrs has main, iron, uim, and gim.
The only mode I think that is truly worth playing on either game is iron/hcim. GIM is a meme mode where your teammates will quit. UIM = no bank which is fucking stupid. And mains are just p2wscape ever since bonds released. Skipping the game is NOT fun. You think it is, and then you wanna quit because bonds sucked the fun out of the game.
Ironically the only way to enjoy runescape anymore is in a singleplayer mode, aka ironman. Although it's not completely solo. You can do group bossing in rs3, and do minigames etc.
>>566852751 if you dont have ocd about some helmet symbol you can also just play a main solo. just dont interact with people. who the fuck cares if people see that you have a helmet beside your name
>>566854485 if you are the same guy who said just ignore the temptation to buy bonds a lot of us arent able to do that and cave. iron is the only escape from mtx.
also, a lot of people don't mention this enough. there's no reason NOT to buy bonds earlier on. gp helps out massively when you are new. obviously it takes away the fun though. don't get me on my bond rant.
>>566865187 i mean again its a waste of time i guess but modern rs3 is cookie clicker. as you can see im doing runespan. its mindless. and i did the easter event for my smithing levels. also mindless.
>>566865054 >complete f2p 100% before getting members? that's not why they asked why you're doing this to yourself, it is because you have textures disabled like an insane person not even disabling terrain blending to see individual tiles just straight up mspaint ground
>>566867945 >not even disabling terrain blending Disabling terrain blending looks horrible in most places because they no longer design the map with that in mind.
>>566869089 you should tinker with all the settings both graphical and otherwise, they are there for you to use after all >>566869243 >because they no longer design the map with that in mind. so true, it's another step divorced from rs2. i miss fixed 800x600 resolution mode
I've been playing for a few weeks now and I'm still not used to the 0.6 tick delay. It feels so unresponsive that it makes me panic and spam my mouse clicks. This leads me to some bullshit deaths in PvM. How do I deal with this? Do I just gotta keep playing and try to fix my bad habit of spam clicking or is there a trick to it?
>>566901280 im not really sure either. I think usually things are synced to a certain thing happening on screen. So like you get hit when a projectile actually touches you. But sometimes it's when the projectile is fired that it counts the hit. RS3 has a lot more leeway since prayers are only 50% and you usually soul split anyways. It's a gay ass concept but some people have figured it out, try to find a good tutorial video.
