wow that's alot of time for one item!

That's just an optional item, nobody needs BiS gear to do any endgame content in RS3. It is also not "alot of time" comparing to other MMORPGs where players typically spend a year or two on getting an item from raids.

I've barely dabled with zamorak at all, and 99% kills at Zamorak are a snooze. Imagine, making the more valuable drops less common at low enrages... It's almost like they want to reward people who put time into actually pushing enrage instead of just camping 99% and not bothering to try to go further because the chance at drops at 99% was too high. Saying this was an elitist update is typical wanting something for nothing behaviour.

I am not a great pvmer, I am middle of the pack at best. I don't go around thinking I deserve a seat at the big boy table when I don't put the work in to deserve that seat. Effort=Reward, as it should.

Another person who didnt read all the previous posts. I have lord of Chaos, I do 100%s and have 5 bow peices! claiming i want something for nothing is illogical, I am advocating for lower skilled players and for the reduction in cost of top end pvm Items to increase player activity and inclusiveness! especially for great content like zamorak. we want to see more people doing the boss not less!
last piece i sold for 2.7 b ... which is wayyyy too much and the rarity needed to be tuned differently to avoid mercher hoarding..

Either fix this or Fix the Ge limit ! Now not later! bump

Some more information on elitism has emerged. Word on the street is there was a fix for Solak phase 2 (some kind of nuisance).

Which was posted exclusively on.... the Solak Discord Channel.

Further proving what I said earlier in the thread. Everything I ever heard about Discord is shady business, and we can't even get a proper notification of a major update.

Combat committee has too much freedom to tamper with the game, they have too much motivation with their Discord fan club, and who even cares about the other 320 million customers.

100% combat patch notes must be required. Stop the tampering. Stop adjusting the game based on the very few. Their elite attitude comes across loud and clear, it is not cool.

Even on this point of Zamorak, on a live stream way before this change they were talking about players camping below 100% range. 'The blind leading the blind' is exactly what they said.

My take on that is stop trying to be cool, and take charge of communicating YOUR OWN DECISIONS.

On your own website. Right on the homepage.

How is a
FIX
related to elitism? Every game in this world applies FIX to address for UNINTENDED behaviors. Only games catered for elitists ignore all abnormal content behaviors when they found and intended not to fix them if the fix is negative to elitists.

Even more on this idea of where they get feedback.

Check out Mod Daze on Twitter. At this moment they are conspiring with their subscribers to ruin Dungeoneering.

It doesn't seem possible, but they seem to be implying they can do whatever they want voluntarily (game jam BS) just like the folks remaking the graphics and bulldozing the surface map.

It's for their subscribers and fan clubs, and to this day I still ask WHY anyone would subscribe to an individual employee.

1000% agree, it scales, so if you want even more bad luck mitagtion/chance for the drop you push the enrage, if you don't wanna enrage push and be more relaxed, you shouldn't be punished for it, you're still fighting zammy, a GOD.... one of the strongest bosses in game, and even without 100 enrage hes still quite a challenge. I see no reason to punish players, in fact more bosses should have bad luck mitigation, it sucks going 100s or even in some cases.. 1000s of kills before you get a big drop worth anything... beyond frustrating doesn't quite put it justice, Anyone wanna try and live 2010 kc for a grico? No?, didn't think so.

Jmod on twitter talking about buffing boss hp in dung is really out of touch and clearly doesn't understand that this is not the way to go for a dung rework. I get that the skill is outdated with npcs hp pre-eoc level but still, just add more mechanics and phases to bosses if you want to make dung up to date for eoc. I don't wan't to be forced to do 20 min mediums, I want to continue 7 minute duo mediums like it should be. Why isn't unwanted changes like this polled?

They probably aren't even going to announce solak changes on mondays newspost.
