RuneScape Silly Question Sunday - 24 December

Silly Question Sunday - 24 December

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 04:12 PM PST

Silly Question Sunday is a weekly thread in which you can ask your RuneScape-related silly questions:

  • "Newb" questions from new players
  • Questions from returning players
  • Silly or nonsensical questions
  • Questions you feel stupid asking elsewhere

Of course, a question thread wouldn't make much sense without answers, so please help out with any answers that you have!

Regarding Mod Ramen's comments on practice mode and dev time

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 08:25 PM PST

Ramen said that faking the variables going into the phase would require too much Dev time. This is understandable. Why not try a different approach?

Give us instakill darts that only work in practice mode. That way we can just kill the first four phases of Telos as much as we want. You don't have to fake any variables that way. It's just as if you did 150k damage in one tick. You can even wait a few specs to phase when you want.

The same concept would apply to other bosses with phases like Vorago/Araxxor/etc.

This is not my original idea. I've seen it on Reddit and Twitter but wanted to make a post.

Prestiging a boss removes Final Boss/IFB titles

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 02:55 PM PST

Also doesn't work on pets or total boss KC.

After prestiging a boss tonight, I am now unable to turn on the FB/IFB titles, because using the prestige option 'resets' your kc to 0. Not really an issue for the boss I prestiged (DKS), because of how fast the kills are, but for something slower I could see it being annoying for someone.

Boss pet examine
Title interface
Total Boss kcs - can see 41k where obviously 60k in DKS

FWP i know sorry

E: Because I no longer have 1 KC in every boss I also lose the Reaper title and therefore Comp.

Why do interfaces close every time someone opens a door on a Dungeoneering floor?

Posted: 24 Dec 2017 12:06 AM PST

For example, being unable to use the Smuggler's shop, make traps, craft for statues, or making runes while your team is running the floor is the most infuriating thing ever. What causes this to happen?

Time-gating is killing my enthusiasm for the game.

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 03:15 PM PST

What is time-gating?

Time-gating is the when certain aspects of the game are locked for a certain amount of time before they can be used/played.

Some examples?

One of the biggest offenders of this is the raids lockout, which only allows you to obtain loot from completing the raid every 2 days. This both slows down peoples progress to obtaining the achto set, and puts newer players/ newer people to pvm at a significant disadvantage as it will be increasingly difficult to find teams as more and more people complete their sets.

Aura-scape is another huge one and the one that I personally have the biggest gripe with. With bosses like telos having very high defence using an aura like maniacle can be the make or break in a kill (especially when pushing enrage) and having on a 5 hour cooldown significantly puts me off playing the game in the downtime, once my auras are out I tend to just log off because instead of being able to continue what I was doing, I have to wait several hours or put myself at a serious disadvantage.

Another example would be the sign of life cooldown, although it makes sense to have a cooldown on it, it can still discourage players from continuing what they were doing, especially if they are on a large streak at telos and thus risking a lot. It would make a lot more sense to have some way of resetting the sign.

So what solutions are there?

For the raids issue it's fairly simple, allow players to farm raids as much as they want for the chance at achto, but remove the regular loots after the first kill of that reset, thus players can grind for achto without there being an influx of the regular loots into the game.

Aura-scape is a little more complex as it's more of an issue with the bosses being built around using auras than it is the auras themselves. One solution would be to just reduce the defence of the many of the bosses, but this would negatively impact the economy a disproportionate amount as it would lead to a lot more people killing bosses, and at faster speeds. Another solution would be to allow for multiple aura resets per day, maybe it could be the reaper points way (but that's also kinda time-gated) or maybe we could have an addition of several other ways to obtain aura resets. Which could span across many areas of the game and thus encourage people to partake in those areas of content too. The final option would just be using cash to reset the auras (scaling with the aura tier, say 1m per tier) which would serve as a huge moneysink for the game.

A sign of life reset could be implemented in many ways too, maybe it could be an item drop from completing a guthixian cache, maybe it could be an invention item, the posibilities are endless and I'd love to see some implementation of these ideas to both encourage players to explore more areas of content while also allowing them to keep doing what they enjoy without being locked out.

But you forgot about "X"

Yes, I am aware there are many other examples of time gating and they should also be addressed but these were just the few that came to mind first.

----TL:DR----

Time-gating sucks and we need some work arounds for it that positively impact the game and encourage people to play more pieces of content.

Request: Drop rates revealed for ushabti souls

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 02:42 PM PST

Seeing as skilling pets and item drop rates have been revealed, it seems that soul rates would be along a similar vein. It'd also make camping lava strykes that bit less infuriating. Thoughts?

Constant client crash (Mac)

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 08:11 PM PST

Hi friends, sorry to waste your time but I cannot find a solution anywhere and it is literally making it impossible to play runescape and a waste of my time the way it is going.

All I do in this game is one of 3 things, kill telos, kill aod and bomb tank vorago - and for the last 3 or so months, EVERY HOUR without fail, my client will go from full functioning to, in a single tick, completely gone and closed. I will then get an error message 30s later saying that it "unexpectedly quit".

I have a 2013 macbook pro in which I have played runescape on since I obtained it, and there has never been an issue up until the last 2-3 months. It has made the game literally unplayable and un rewarding (i literally can't streak telos so Im stuck trying to push enrage waiting for my client to crash).

The crash only seems to happen when doing activities with a lot of key input, hence it happens at telos/aod/vorago where I am constantly spamming abilities/prayers/items/etc. It will happen the tick I press something (whether it be an ability or something else), that exact milisecond I press a key it will crash. I play on bare minimum graphics with the exception of draw distance on medium/high (I need it for telos/aod/vorago).

I have unistalled/reinstalled the client, cleared all the cache, cleared all the runescape related files and so on. Nothing has helped in the slightest. I can still play games such as league of legends just fine on this computer at 40-60fps and no other application on my computer crashes, nor can I remember a single application crashing at all in at least the last year outside of runescape.

Thanks for any help, I really just want to be able to play that game again and not hate it.
