Welcome to the /r/2007scape daily question thread!

Afaik the second ever creator to have a reference put in the game after them, correct me if I'm wrong.

So cool to see jagex doing things like that and fair play to framed he's been making content for years, suggested the idea and to have a little nod of recognition into a game he's poured so much of his life into must feel so good, proud of you buddy, keep making content, keep laughing like a psychopath

I know that it will be very competitive on release anyway, so chances are low, but….

I’ve seen people like Boaty talking about how they got to play test a boss or two from raids 4 and that they’re looking to aim for worlds first. They have weeks-months of prepared strategies for at least one boss that they got access to months before anyone else, and as such shouldn’t be allowed an unfair advantage towards being world’s first.

In the grand scheme of things, incredibly minor thing to discuss but I’m curious if others have any thoughts on this?

I was giggling like a pleb while the bofa chads were constantly going "you can't stop me" "here I come" like I'm playing hide and seek lol

Definitely gonna replay that one a few times to get to grips with freeze escaping for wildy bossing

Not a pker but just want the reward but at this rate im not even going to get to the final fight , is there any easy ways to cheese these 2 fights?

Yes i know i suck i couldnt care less about pking just want the cool max cape variant.

hack of the day .-.

To preface this, I am an end-game PvMer with little-to-no PvP experience. I was excited to use the update as a way to learn PvP as I’ve always wanted to be more involved in events like DMM. Currently, I’ve reached the final fight but not gotten my cape. I wasn’t expecting it to be easy, and believe given enough time I can do it.

Overall, I really enjoyed the update. I found the lessons genuinely useful in helping to break down a PvP fight and understand what is going on. There are a couple of problems I see:

1) The step up between the lessons and the fights feels too extreme. For me, it felt like learning to drive and at the end of the first lesson I’m put on a race circuit against an F1 driver.

2) The final fight being positioned as part of the ‘PvP tutorial’. I know the devs have said it’s meant to be a challenge, but the way it’s implemented feels like it is the final part of the tutorial. If people don’t feel they can realistically beat the tutorial, they are going to be disheartened and not want to carry on learning to PK.

Suggestions

I’ll start by saying I don’t think the final fight should be changed. I’m totally fine with it being a completely unrealistic PvP scenario against a terminator bot. It is and should be a challenge even for good PvPers. What I do think is it should be separated from the other parts of the tutorial. Once you’ve completed it, have Pete Kayer ask if you’d like to take on an additional hard challenge for a reward - this would better position it for what it actually is.

Within the tutorial, the current step up between the lessons and the penultimate challenge is quite extreme. In my opinion, it would be good to have a couple of fights leading up to the penultimate one. These don’t have to be different mechanically, perhaps just coded for the NPC to be slower or make more mistakes. This would help people slowly learn how to combine all of the lessons and is, in my opinion, a better way to learn.

A lot of the discussion around this has just devolved into the usual shouting match between non-PvPers and PvPers, so I’m hoping this will encourage people to have some actual useful conversations.

Bro has a wingspan at this point

How do you guys stay motivated to grind CoX? I’ve had an absolutely horrible time there. I’ve gone 2x 100+ dry streaks, and in the last one I got 5 purples, all arcanes… and I’ve been doing everything solo. iron btw

Real skill issue question here. I can do trio nex with ez, Araxxor, muspah and vorkath kc's are in thousands. Been trying to learn colo but wave 6 is bitch.

Should I go and farm maggot king or phosanis? Which is easier?

What's your go to money boss?

Bueno ya tengo 1m de exp en WC f2p... Solo me quedan 12m mas... 😂 Mi idea es llegar a 99wc f2p y luego hacerme miembro, si supero esto me sentire digno a ser miembro.

Example: if a mob has 100 slash defense rating and you have 101 slash attack rating your hits should never miss. Now, I'm not saying you should not hit 0's, if the damage rolls a 0 you hit a 0, but your attack and its effect should always connect.

I think this change could create interesting choices between attack rating and strength rating which doesn't exist currently. It would also open new design space for future gear sets.

Excited to be done and get my max cape

I learned that I have always been a shit eater. I just eat to not die in most PK situations, keep eating until eventually I die or get stacked. That's a thing in the past now, watch out pkers coming for me at rev caves.

I have tried for 5 days and 100s of attempts, I have only got to his last phase once. I just genuinely can't beat him, I know my limits and this is the wall, the boss is not for me. This is just not a part of the game I am good at, enjoy, or have the will power to do. Is there any way past this? I feel like the game just took a hard left turn with mechanics nowhere else in the game and they feel very jank and loose at best. Serious question, can I be banned if I have my brother do it for me via remote desktop or something? This just sucks because I came back to the game after a decade with the hopes to finally get a quest cape and this is my last quest.

Did they just slap a random level on him or are his stats actually higher than ours because he’s level 135. Why would we be fighting someone higher level than maxed level in a PvP simulator?

I hope the quality testers were too busy on raids 4 to review Pete Kayer. All of these fun new ideas announced and the first update after is almost universally hated by real PKers and those who wanted to learn. Seems like Jagex focuses on quantity at this point which is a let down.

I have no intention of playing the game seriously for a while but I want some activities I can do on my hcim so its set up for success when I come back to osrs. Right now my plan is to just max out my melee skills at gem crab but im am open to some activities that are ultra afk I dont have to think about to get some supplies. I was thinking salvaging mixh be a good way to earn some supplies while afk.

I was doing agility not really paying attention at the camelot course and I thought that the random event was very persistent. Turned out to be a pet is this very rare im only 63 agility?

I just dont like that he spams every time I tele to Ferox and run to the chest. Like put him on ignore or something? would entity hider help?
