There is one big problem with the iron man mode as presented:

It would be possible to have people help you kill bosses like those at gwd, and an ironman would receive the drop even if they only dealt 51% of the damage. In order for an iron man to hold true to its name, I think an iron man must deal 100% of the damage to any monster/boss in order to get the drop.

Until this is added I am unlikely to vote yes for the iron man mode.

That can be done, what does everyone think?
If this is done, would it be possible to have ironman specific worlds, where two players cannot possibly attack the same monster even in a multi-combat zone?
And only ironman accounts can log in.

Where can we go to look into transferring our accounts to an ironman once this passes? If we cannot transfer stats, I will not partake as I have already put in so much time on this account.

The whole point is to do everything solo. Did you do everything alone? Like craft your rune armor?

That was a bad example as rune armor comes from clue scrolls, monster drops, shops ect. Few ironmen are going to craft their own rune armor.

A better example would be mixing your own prayer potions or having to use your own gilded alter.

O well, I tried. But either way you shouldn't be able to transfer stats. It's a fresh start.

I actually fletched and sold to the general store to get my cash stack, which I then spent on rune plate, legs, zerker helm, and I got rune scim and b axe and kite drop from fire giants. I did read the rules before I started haha

I'm thinking that as the majority of the community are wanting a fresh start from launch that is probably the way to go, but it's a discussion we can have right up until launch so keep saying what you think.

It is unlikely we will do ironman worlds.

Yeah, I'll just have to accept that I guess.
Sounds like it's a fair bit off regardless, so I'm not too concerned.

I have a low level iron man. Even though I didn't spend a lot of time on it like others. I'm ready to give it up for an official mode. At least this way we can all be sure nobody cheated.
