  1. to be fair since the price was raised I have seen a significant reduction in the amount of endgame drops, but yeh I was surprised to see zenytes and cerb crystals in them at all
  2. have suggested this a few times I think, don't know if they don't want to do it or don't have the time, but everyone I speak to about this is always positive, +1 from me
  3. love this, maybe we could put ammy of damned in the elite barrows chest?
  4. I like the idea, but perhaps the reward chest can be opened after a hard kill...
  5. would love to see full gauntlet, would add some more variety rather than just adding another boss.
  6. someones jealous of my ranged kiln cape I like the Pam box idea, making them roll like a clue scroll is a nice touch so 100% support that idea. as for the ammo one, I'm obviously bias, I feel like to mess with donor perks after people have bought them is a bit slimy, that being said, the pvp ranged weapons in my eyes are a bit of an anomaly and would makes sense to not have the perk affect them, especially in wildy.
  7. If there is a template for RS servers it's that donations keep the server running, but votes keep the server populated. As it stands we don't receive 200 votes per day on all sites, in most cases we are getting little over 100, which means only around 20 players are voting every 24 hours. which is pretty poor considering you can vote every 12! So I've been speaking to a few people in game, Ryster and myself have thought of some ways to increase the incentive to vote, I like that the vote store has a large variety of cosmetic items, however this just isn't enough of an incentive to vote for the majority of players. I would like to suggest we introduce a "donator ticket" that will be able to be purchased for 150 vote points and will add $10 onto your total donated. this ticket will not grant any EP, and it will be capped at $50 so once you have $50 total donated on your account, you cannot claim any more tickets to get to $60+. you will be able to still buy these tickets and sell them to other players. This will provide a real incentive to new players and old to make sure they are voting regularly, either to earn their own donor rank or to sell the tickets themselves. I don't believe it will have too much of a negative effect on the number of players donating to the server as in the grand scheme of things $50 done rank isn't end game by and stretch of the imagination and If you want to progress further through the donor rank system you will then need to buy the scrolls purchased for irl $, as well as the fact it does not give any EP. We have also spoken about incorporating a gold sync into this, where you originally purchase an untradable version of the ticket which can be used by the buyer of course but would cost 250m-500m in order to make it tradable, meaning new players would still benefit from just voting but players who already have donor rank could pay a (relatively) small fee in order to make it tradable to sell to other players. the same way osrs bonds currently work. *note I would love input on this as I'm not 100% on the ratio of votes to $, however, ryster did some quick numbers and this seemed like a fair ratio to me. swell as this id love to see some other suggestions for new items to be put in the voting shop, perhaps a set of the tickets currently in the PVM shop or EP shops? Ryster: I'd say Mate and I see eye to eye on this idea, and I think it's actually a pretty damn good one. There's some things I expect criticism for with this idea, so I'd like to address what I see as possible arguments. This reduces the incentive to actually donate This is a possible outcome if the conversion rate of votes to "total donation" isn't within a certain threshold. It's crucial that we maximize the amount of votes to bring in new players (who will likely either donate/vote themselves for a beautiful feedback loop), while also not over-incentivizing the system so that players will exclusively vote for "total donated" instead of actually donating. With a maximum of ~5k votes per year per forum account, voting twice a day every day, it would take around 2 weeks of non-stop voting to achieve $10 worth of "total donated" at the conversion rate we stopped at. Players will abuse this system by creating multiple accounts to get more "total donation" This is a valid argument, but you have to consider the logistics of accomplishing this and the effects it actually has. You can get around voting restrictions by creating a new forum account and using a VPN, this is true. However, The cumbersome process of doing this is more trouble than it's worth for the reward. The first criticism response comes into player here; If the conversion rate is just right, we will only be incentivizing normal voting. But lets evaluate what would happen in the case that people were doing this en masse. Even if there were some people who were motivated to "abuse" this loophole, all they're doing is working harder to boost the server while only cutting their time down a bit to get $10 worth of non-ep generating "total donated." If this were actually "abused" in any meaningful capacity, it would be incredibly niche and wouldn't last long. Players will just buy vote tickets to get their "total donated" up. Yes, but not anywhere near as fast or convenient as you would think. Vote tickets would very likely increase in value as a result of this change. At 250 votes per $10 (without ep) at 4m per vote you're looking at 1b GP. That would be on par with a normal $10 scroll, but it's also a guaranteed way to increase "total donated" over time, creating demand while the supply of these already useful items is always limited. Any excess vote tickets in the system after this was implemented would get scooped up very quickly. Essentially, what we get from this is a better incentive to vote, increasing our exposure while also adding a slow, yet balanced, but guaranteed method of increasing "total donated." I believe it's important, After having maxed their ability to use these "donator tickets," that that player could still buy these tickets and sell them on the market to retain the voting incentive. That might be more controversial though.
  8. would be cool to see this fixed and tyrannical ring being used
  9. I 100% agree with anguish and bracelet receiving a buff I 100% agree with zealots being amended to affect multi prayers correctly and I like the idea of buffing the ring of suffering whilst keeping treas ring as bis, a bit off topic but maybe adding a t2 to treat or imbue would be nice too
  10. IF I WANTED TO QUEST ID PLAY OSRS! but yeh when raids?
  11. easy mate

    Coins.

    yes, and in the dagganoth cave on frem isles there is an egg that when you examine it says "a egg" not "an egg" and it upsets me
  12. apologies that my comment came across as guarded, I genuinely wrote it in jest, as well as wanting to explain how I got to my total, we obviously looked at the items that were received with different values, I only reported what I made and didn't scrutinise the items as in depth as you did, we also have two different ethos' when it comes to selling items lol I would rather sell cheap and quick where as it seems you are more patient when selling items
  13. I mean since I "validated" your point I obviously don't feel attacked, I merely provided criticism on your point, its just interesting that you class untradable items with an alch value of 1k as a valuable item, remember that the void stone does not unlock the ability to kill harb but just means you don't have to do kc, and that you'd class giving away items as a way of making profit. feels like clutching at straws is all. You're more than welcome to open some boxes for yourself and make more money. I stand by the fact that my 15b total is a lot closer to the amount of money I made from this than your 29b estimate and that's all I have to say really
  14. these prices are high even if you wanna spend 3 months selling the items I don't think you'd ever finish selling 12 arma battle staffs, I sold/alched the items that were not worth selling and got about 17b lmao you've also included untradeable items in the price?? okay bro lemme break down the prices I actually would have sold shit for (note I chanced all the nex items for fun but this was not a factor in my original price) 2x Torva Helm - 1.4b 1x Torva Platebody - 900m 1x Pernix Cowl - 700m 1x Pernix Body - 900m 1x Pernix Chaps - 800m 1x Virtus Mask - 700m 1x Virtus Robe Legs - 800m 3x Pegasian Crystal - 3b 1x Eternal Crystal - 750m 1x Primordial Crystal - 1.5b 5x Dragon Claws - 500m 2x Dragon Warhammer - 300m 180 (ish) gems were obtained without the nex items but ill include them - 3.6b 590x Crystal Key - 1.5b 510x Dark Totem - 1.5b 1285x Armadyl Shard - 12 abs alched for 150m ea 85 Void soulstone - untradeable so why are we counting these apart from a weird attempt to be negative?? l0l perhaps 15b was a bit low, but definitely more accurate than 29b? that's laughable, you'd be here until 2025 trying to sell it for that much
  15. So I opened 1k PvM Boxes, I was buying these boxes for 25m each and also earning them myself. the total loot was around 15b meaning a 10b loss. Which shows that the worth of each box is around 15m (which happens to be the alch value) I dunno who decided that 50m should be the price for these boxes but yeh, don't be buying them for that if you wanna make money.
  16. this needs to happen, I love weed but the weeds growing is such a pain in the arse
  17. yeh I feel you, perhaps we need like a buff to herb pouches or something you can buy to x2 the herb patch yield, but buying brews and restores sounds a bit mad to me
  18. I like these apart from the pots for iron man, the gathering of materials is the real challenge imo.
  19. easy mate

    SPINS

    okay so I'm sure a lot of you like me have a load of spins built up over time that you just can't bring yourself to use because now you've got 1000 of them and you're not going to spend 3 hours spinning shit. is there any way we can get an auto spin button so we can actually use our spins? doesn't have to do them all in one go it can still take time but just so we don't have to click? I dunno maybe im just a bot?
  20. so when you try to attack something with darts and are out of range you character just sits there instead of running into range and then attacking.
  21. POG fr we do need this its the only thing that stops me doing slot more
  22. So I had to 1 up my boy @fm das and do 5k arma kills. the loot tab is about 3.5k kills worth but I have included the collection log for all 5k kills
  23. I can no longer use the home teleport spell
  24. I just miss him so much :'C
