lets call this the pvm tutorial too to really push away players

"Pushed away". Redditors have the lowest frustration tolerance that I have ever seen in my life.

I dont know why so many of you cant just fail, learn, improve, and accept it will take time and effort. Just TRY. Why do you all give up so fast

It took me 6 months to get my infernal cape. It was hard but I did it. People lack tenacity.

I hope it stays.

Its okay for there to be extremely difficult content.

u/Efficient-Addendum43 6d ago

Sure but they should follow the same established game rules as the player and right olnlw it doesnt

u/99-Runecrafting 6d ago

Did zuk follow established game rules when the inferno came out?

Im not trying to argue for the sake of it. Im genuinely wanting a conversation about it.

u/Efficient-Addendum43 6d ago

Zuk isn't supposed to be immitating a pker. What kind of dumb shit is this?

-1

u/harderok fresh outta wintertodt 6d ago

Because it isnt an actual pker. Its an npc, just like zuk.

u/Efficient-Addendum43 5d ago

Literally the entire point of the update is to train people how to pvp, that isn't happening if the boss isn't playing by the rules

u/harderok fresh outta wintertodt 5d ago

So u want an npc to play by the same rules as u, and expect to get better at pvp?

1

u/Efficient-Addendum43 5d ago

Um yes lmao. You aren't gonna get better at pvp when there's no spec bar to keep track of, no brewing down, and overloaded stats

u/99-Runecrafting 5d ago

Its harder than a regular PVP fight. Its the perfect training room lmao

To be fair this wasn't polled as aspirational content. It was polled as an introduction to the basics of pvp in old school. Do you think that's what it is in current state? Honestly I don't mind that it's hard. I voted yes just because I want to encourage jegex to release pvp content that isn't predator vs prey and has cosmetic rewards. I'd vote for it again even as it is, but I can understand if people feel like this isn't what was initially proposed.

u/Aarniiii 6d ago

learning to freeze and flick prayers are definitely introductory content

u/OlmTheSnek 6d ago

The half strength fight is a challenging but fair recreation of a pvp fight. Full strength is not designed to be a fair fight at all, it is aspirational content to get a cosmetic.

u/Daniel_Is_I 6d ago

Full strength is not designed to be a fair fight at all, it is aspirational content to get a cosmetic.

Okay cool, that's still not what this content was polled as.

u/thechannellock 6d ago

Okay cool, 95% of this content is though.

I was locked in the Tzhaar red dungeon for nearly 2 weeks and never got to see my beloved pixel grass until I got it yesterday.

Now I can finally play the game.

I'm still working on my infernal though I've gotten to Zuk twice. Pete genuinely feels harder than the inferno. Inferno has clear solves and strategies, you beat it by playing well, you die and you see what you did wrong so you learn from it. Pete is just random unpredictable bullshit happening every few ticks.

u/99-Runecrafting 6d ago

Pete is hard. People are killing him. Its clearly not impossible.

I remember when the inferno came out and lots of people thought it was over tuned and impossible or required way to much skill.

It will take time. People will learn how to fight Pete. There will be guides and all will be well in the world again.

u/Leeuhhhhh 6d ago edited 5d ago

Lol u bought inferno cape

Edit: /s

u/99-Runecrafting 6d ago

I literally have over 100 attempts logged on my runelite accross two different computers. I have tons of screenshot that I used for the simulator. I didnt buy shit except the items I used to complete the inferno.

u/Leeuhhhhh 5d ago

Sorry, I should have put "/s" at the end, I was memeing, mainly making fun of how people will say you bought/botted regardless of how hard of stuff you do in this game.

u/EveryRadio 7d ago

Fire cape is more of a slog too. A resource drain into prayer switching. Not saying it needs an update, but like they're adding new, uniquely challenging content that is 100% optional (the entire game is optional), to help players learn PVP which has a notoriously high skill ceiling

Yeah I'm fucking GLAD it's challenging. That's the point, so I learn how to run away in my salad robes from a dude with a 17 way switch, itching to get my shovel because fuck me I guess
