like most events it will probably be tweaked 10x over in the ninja patches over the next few weeks the amount needed to pass will most likely be nerfed and possibly change the achievement so you only need to attend not actually pass it, or thats what im hoping for all i can see now is overly populated it will stay like this for maybe a week then dead content that noone will ever pass because not enough people attend anymore

the shame is that I like it, and it coulda been great news for us with hopes the game does things to welcome new players. instead of being super fun like clawdia though...

a whole bunch of little things envenom it. like the tiny little hunter imp to hand in butterflies to. what the...

and none of the artists or coders, I hope, disobey directives to avoid our feedback. I do want all of my vented spleen filtered by some CM type and taken gently to the fragile artists as something like...

"some of the players have a concern about..."

cause I know it. I am mean angry about this one. its a real effort to curb my snarling rage this time.
I have quit rsof because moderator found comments about darklight bonus damage on demons "off topic" for wildy flash mobs full of demons

thing i find most annoying about this is the events happen at set times and for the average person who works those times arent always available except maybe once a week, which means you have one shot once a week to complete the event and if you fail for whatever reason like your internet drops, someone just happens to knock on the door or its overly crowded then sods law you can wait another week now till you can wear a comp cape again :(

The events are on a 13 hour rotation, so you're eventually able to finish it even if you just got one single hour at the exact time every day. It's probably not too daring to expect, that somebody who was able to earn a comp cape (or especially a trimmed one) in the past should have more time than this.

true, but like... our mutual pal... your clannie... she wont get her cape back cause she cant damage the spiders. I offered to help, but... she seemed pretty upset, so then I am out her company, and it amplifies my frustrations.

I got my reg comp yesterday and will get trim before monday maybe.

well no, this is the only achievement to my knowledge where you can only participate at set times everything else you can pop on when your next available

I've got my comp cape back again now anyway



its also worth noting, just because you had time then doesn't necessarily mean you have time now, contract hours change, familys are created, new commitments come up we don't all live in a time vortex where nothing changes, life goes on and things come and go over the years

The combat event so far also were the worst experience for me. Not just due to the sheer volume of other players, also due to the poor performance the game has since that update. The former should sort out itself on the next couple of days, for the latter I'll just have to hope Jagex does something.

It isn't the only time locked thing you have to do. See it from the perspective of a new player, they'll have to engage with heavily time locked things, so you'll long have finished 250 flash events (for the final achievement) long before some of the other things they'll have to do on their route - just talking about regular comp for now. As I said - as long as you're able to complete one singular event at the same time of a day every day, you'll be done within a couple of weeks, if you can do more you'll be faster, if you miss out a day, it'll take a bit longer - but you'll get there eventually. I just do not think it's worth to make oneself insane, just because you've lost this cape for a few weeks or even months - especially when you're someone who is calling themselves casual. It's not like it would heavily restrict your capabilities to play this game like pre 2019

The regular comp cape is about completing and unlocking everything relevant to your account, the trimmed one would be about more insane completables. And it always was clear, that this wasn't solely the content existing at that time. As a casual player you're not the audience of this cape - no matter whether you had it in the past or not

I mean that said - doing 100 events neither completes that content, nor does it unlock anything, so it's basically just an achievement and shouldn't be on trimmed... but yeah - since the achievement based comp capes are goners, we'll never have this cape solely focused on completables

It's just so clear why OS will never have this cape...

My problem has been KBD. I just can't do enough damage to complete my personal goal before KBD gets slaughter by the group.

As for the other combat events, it is impossible to see any of the enemy NPCs. This is the only way to complete those events.

Set Target Cycling in the Settings:

Esc > Settings > Gameplay > Combat & Action Bar > Targeting

Set Keybinds for Forwards, Backwards and Direct targeting.

Now, you're all set. Once the event begins, hit any of your targeting keybinds to focus your own fire on that enemy. Auto-attacks will do the rest. Keep an eye on their healthbar. As each dies, just target the next and you'll soon have your quota and complete that part of it. Continue until the group goal is met and the event is successfully completed. And you won't have seen a single damn enemy but they're all dead.

Oh and be sure Settings is at Radial and the PVP area target selection is set to NPCs only or you'll end up targeting some PKer's familiar and wind up skulled. Well, it may not happen but why risk it.

Good luck!
