Apparently raids are hitting late July (likely as a aftermath of the lovely world event, probably with tuska crashing in to the planet and her backportal leading to raids)

Welcome to this year's edition of What's going to piss off someone in the clan who gets their max cape two weeks before a content launch?

Details of the "...We're not really doing 'Invention' anymore per se" developer blog linked above include:
  • New 'elite' skills up to level 120! (Archaeology, Necromancy, Sailing, and Invention?)
  • A new experience curve to 120, exclusive to said new skills!
  • No intended fixes to broken or useless old skills that desperately need overhauls!
  • Hints at possibly raising the level cap to 120 on ALL skills!
  • A three-month lockout on MTX items for 'elite' skills


Spergminer posted:

Sounds great except adding the new 120 skills to the max cape, just make a proper 1-99 skill you hacks

That and they can gently caress right off with the idea of raising level caps to 120 without fixing the curve on old skills too. It's already insane enough to get 99 in most skills, and you know drat well they wouldn't bother implementing better training methods for a LONG time so as to avoid pissing off the "purists" who got 120 capes before raising the caps.

My favorite part of those two skills is that everything you make is functionally obsolete if you're leveling everything else at the same time.

Let's not fix that though, let's add even more skills to the game instead! That's what people want, right?

Reyna will give you a mystery box when you bring eight buckets of sand to her, up to three times a day. With your first one, she'll also give you a beach party ticket. Keep hold of this – when the Lumbridge Crater Beach Party starts next week, you can exchange it for a goody bag!

You can get up to two boxes per day through daily challenges, and you can win more on Treasure Hunter.

Give 24 buckets of sand every day to the woman in Lumby Crater, get mystery boxes

Personally, I think that Necromancy is a cool idea, beyond that, I will wait and see. No skill reworks does kinda suck though.

I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

Played a few hours of old school lately. It's oddly soothing to do the low-level, mundane quests.

Also HOLY poo poo is the OSRS community awful. If you mention RS3/the main game and don't say it sucks you'll hagve 20 nerds following you around being assholes lol.

My awful stats:

Agreed :(

The economy is pretty messed up and getting worse with time too, the best example being wine making for cooking experience. It's the fastest way to get 99 cooking, and costs roughly 1gp/xp or less due to new drop tables having a stupid amount of noted grapes as a drop. Literally everything past level 35 cooking is invalidated as content/training methods, and the 99 is only 13m as a result. The skeletal wyvern drop table rework is pretty ridiculous too from what I hear, at one point it was like 600k+ per hour I think?

AFK training for melee at 70+ stats and magic from level 1 and up is convenient, but pretty game-breaking in its own way as well. Unfortunately fixing all of this wouldn't fix a bad community anyways, I'm just hoping for cross-game clan chat ASAP. (We had cross-game chat with FunOrb didn't we? Why is this taking so long?)

I wonder why you got banned. Usually you have to be a huuuuge piece of poo poo, a gold seller or a bot.

I have gotten muted for making fun of fat people though so who knows with :Jagex:

I had a history of like 15 mutes where my account was hijacked in the years I wasn't playing. I got 1 more mute and then some mod did a manual perma ban on my account

There was no way to appeal it because they didn't give any evidence and they don't care about banned accounts

I haven't played this game in forever, easily a couple years before RS3 came out, yet I still have my old account, somewhere around 84 combat, is it worth it to try and jump into this again? And if so, where should I start?

Look up the requirements for Plague's End (it's a slew of skills ranging from decent to Agility, and a bunch of quests) and work towards that. Completing it gives you access to a city geared towards high level players that is incredibly useful and convenient.

Additionally, look up Player Owned Ports and what skills unlock it (it's 90 in any one of a bunch of different skills, though the more 90s you have the more you'll get out of it) and get one of those. Runecrafting, despite being an awful skill, is one of the better 90s, imo. Cooking is probably the easiest. Ports has a series of adventurers that are associated with each 90, each of whom gives various rewards, the most important of which are resources you can assemble, with the appropriate skill, into extremely good armor. Runecrafting is nice because the adventurer associated with it will regularly help you get Chi Globes, which are fashioned into strong Magic gear, also using Runecrafting. No other armor is wrapped up entirely within one 90 the way magic gear is with Runecrafting. Of course, RC sucks horribly so YMMV

Doing plague's end would be good, and I'd advise getting in before the end of the month so you can do the current world event and get a really good slayer skill. Other than that, you should probably only train CB by doing slayer now, since monster drops are more or less the only way people make money now.

Sounds good, my bank is pretty much empty, and I don't have any armor or weapons, I'm trying to do some "path" quest option thing, and I'm doing a quest where I have to kill these Crassian scout fucks, yet I keep getting railed by them because I guess they scale with level, and I have no gear. How should I go about getting a decent setup for my level? I have 70+ combat in all the melee skills.

Dragon isn't super expensive any more, so if you've got a few mil you could go for that. Barrows sets are pretty cheap now too (and dharock's is great for training slayer if you use legacy) or if you can't afford that go for rockshell armor if you want to sacrifice a bit of defense for more attack, or good old traditional rune armor.
