  1. After seeing the update it'd still be nice so the xp rates would be higher.
  2. Roat started off as a custom RSPS though.. Part of what made me start playing years back was the uniqueness of the small customizations that were around. I'm guessing most people who come to play aren't looking for things to be exactly like OSRS anyway as long as it's a realistic item that doesn't break the originality of the game like you see some servers doing with crazy customized gear/weapons that make the game unrealistic.
  3. About time, hopefully construction won't be another three years lol... However, I would like to add a suggestion to skilling as a whole because the way the game currently is makes skilling difficult to actually be efficient in what you are doing. I thought that someone may have thought about this instead of me mentioning it, but apparently not. Made a topic for it here:
  4. I'm not sure if this will be an easy thing to implement into the game or not, but it would sue make the QOL for skillers a lot better due to the fact that you all seem to want to add skilling into the wilderness instead of keeping it a safe venture for more a more chill environment between people. The idea is simple, take the looting bag from the Bounty shop and rename it to the "Skiller's Bag" with some kind of different color to keep it distinguished from one another. This bag should act as a second inventory for any and all skilling purposes. You should be able to withdraw and deposit items in and out of this bag in the wilderness and safe areas (prep for farming runs etc) and have a button to toggle to keep the bag open over the inventory interface to act as a second inventory purely for skilling purposes in the wilderness. For example currently to do say fletching in the resource arena you may only be able to carry say 5-10 logs and your knife at a time which can feel very defeating because of it making the process much slower. With the Skiller's Bag added into the game it would help level the playing field for pking since someone would be able to have their gear and supplies in the main inventory space to acutally put up a fight especially when having to tank a team. The one thing that would be controversial would be the ability to have another 28 food in your inventory which is probably currently too over powered since it would almost like having a Pack Yak back in the day. I think that this bag should not be able to be accessed during combat. This bag could be added to all of the skilling shops for say 50-100k skilling points which would on death be converted back into skilling points.
  5. The big boy drops = #rigged, the current staff does not believe in RNG. You're almost better off doing Slayer for more consistent money or at the very least for something much more relaxing than playing tick for tick in raids...
  6. @Smackd what would you know about playing for fun? @Smackd @Gretar Don't kid yourself lel, prolly took the idea from me resetting my KDR so much back in the old days of Roat trying to hold such a big streak with 0 deaths. Not to mention that it doesn't matter if you can join a clan chat or not people will sit in discord calls teaming anyway lel.... The no trading would have made this much more unique and more challenging plus it would have leveled the playing field for everyone so it was a true competition for anyone walking into the server to play this. There are too many people that can just hook max gear to the account to farm a streak. @Gretar @Smackd @Sinister
  7. @Fruitiest I'm no programmer/scripter, but it seems as if PKing has been altered so that a player needs to do XYZ to achieve a hit much like a bot. True RNG would not have someone having to do XYZ to achieve a hit, it would be coming at random intervals and making people take actual chances to kill someone not doing XYZ to achieve a perfect max hit stack. It would also appear now that people are being PID locked. So say that you're in a NH fight and player A does their hit you are being forced to wait until player B does their hit to make the next one even viable. While this works if everyone is using scripts to fight it doesn't account for real people being able to think and react in real time. It also seems like the shadow ban setup from the duel arena and flower poker has made its way into PKing. Maybe I'm wrong here maybe not, but there are instances where no matter what I do my account I will not hit or I will hit like 10x less than my opponent. And this is the reason why there is no point in going out in any kind of risk just to have it farmed off of you by a script. I've even noticed that this is somewhat the case in multi. You might get one hit on someone then you aren't able to hit again until the player being attacked hits back or does something to switch the PID. While I don't go in multi much after leaving Mongolians due to being left back to have my account farmed and Dylan and either Rag Bot or someone pretending to be Rag decided to do a dox on me and grab/leak my IP address the PKing has been altered there as well. Back when I started playing Roat the combat was not made this way, but I won't deny that back six or seven years it was kind of broken, however it was a lot more fun. Its been years since I've played the live game let alone Pked on the live game, but back in the the real 2005-2007 era not this remake we play (Live or RSPS), the game was not made for someone to be playing as a bot doing XYZ to achieve a hit nor being PID locked, the only people that this is helping are those running bot nets or playing scripted accounts AKA most if not all of Rat Gang, and those farming money for gambling.
  8. @Gretar While hope is not lost forever, it's certainly becoming nonexistent for those who have stayed around the game for a long time. The Last good updates that actually made a difference in people playing were the addition of Slayer and the wilderness key because it added another layer of players to the game. Maybe raids will do some justice, but with RNG removed from PKing the actual fun of being able to go out and use what you earned is dead. PKing itself besides repetitive multi pking is as good as dead the way it stands. You know me though, I'll never quit until you close shop πŸ˜ƒ, and I appreciate every single thing I have learned from you and your minions in my time being apart of this game
  9. Considering you can't even go PK without being harassed by teams falling in to dump specs or rag with the OP Bow of Faerdhinen it seems almost redundant to what the current killstreak system already is. Besides the fact that you would risk all carried items (could simply put in a command to eliminate protect items between people) and having to sacrifice half of the players bank there's not a lot of difference besides a title. Like mentioned above after the 07 rewards it will die out because all that will happen is your team singling out people trying to make something for themselves. The PJ timer would need to be altered for these accounts to make it viable otherwise with all of the OP weapons these days it's too easy to just bully people with a team. Not to mention that the AHKing/scripts that still exist would ruin the fun of someone actually doing this for fun and skill at Pking. Ya Mama's suggestion with the bounty will simply make a way for RWTers to xfer money too easily while maybe it could maybe be monitored to try and determine which bounties are legit or not it would become too difficult to do all of the time. The Key system is an interesting idea however then the accounts would need to be made to no be able to trade existing accounts and then that will probably (hard to say for sure, but more than likely) limit the amount of people actually playing this aspect of pking due to it taking time to gather money for decent gear to be able to get kills regularly.
  10. The fact you and Tesfxye accounts reply at the same time is hilarious...
  11. Yes please! I'm desperate for more space as well!
  12. Edited 3 hours ago by Yoobs da king edit This has to be one of the most well put together replies to these staff feed backs that I have ever seen, and normally I don't even bother replying to these posts because of exactly what you have mentioned in your post about the staff being biased and built on being friends with higher up ranks over time, but I could not help myself because I'd like to say that you hit the nail right on the head for each member of this post with maybe a couple of exceptions. @Gretar While I know my time on this game has been very biased for every individual who has encountered me over time, I have only ever played for the fun of playing this server. I simply needed a game to play that wasn't the real Runescape. I usually have a hard time talking with people or getting my point of view across so I apologize if this becomes hard to understand or becomes too much. I will not be adding things for most individuals because I believe Yoobs Da King damn near got it perfect besides for maybe Rag Bot and Baz, and maybe I am a little biased with them due to our history, but maybe that's because I also know the teams/friends that they come from and what kind of people that they are around or have been around in the past. The only staff members that I have had a truly positive/neutral experience in the last six or so years of playing is Fantastic Cx and Zezima. I have never really needed help playing this game because I have played RS my entire life, but the times that I needed something from them I was usually able to get what was needed without trouble or feeling like I was a burden to them. In my 15 years or so of playing RS & RSPS I have never encountered a person more toxic than your beloved global admin Smackd. While I am not as aware of how he got his position back before I started playing I have never once had a positive encounter with him. In fact back in the first few years of playing he would deliberately go out of his way to flame or harass me simply because I was enjoying playing all of the time and enjoying being able to take Jad solo. While the rules might have been much more relaxed then it is no excuse for the position he is in. Even in the last month I was in the help CC and I said something that Smackd did not like and was instantly kicked from the HELP CC and from another account that was in there I could see him laughing at it thinking he's funny for using his staff privileges to kick me instead of ignoring me or confronting me in any kind of professional manner other than an instant kick for talking poorly about him. Smackd from what I have seen over the years is the type of person that if you are not bending over backwards doing whatever behooves him he will not do a thing for you. If you are not donating to him or gambling away your money he sees you as a problem and in my case has tried to convince you I am a RWTer only here to hurt the game. If it weren't for Zezima being a kind person a few years back and giving me a chance to come back from my ban and play I might not be here. When I was banned Zezima and Fantastic were the only two people who were of any kind of actual help. Smackd, Jblind, Legend would simply laugh and or flame me, no actual help or any kind of a conversation was ever given to even attempt to get to know me as a person, I was simply looked at as a threat to them. That is not how one should be conducting themselves if they wish to be an owner. Despite the past with Smackd the guy has only been active on his admin account not ALT accounts for maybe a few hours a week (if that) for the past 3-4 years up until the last month or so. Same goes with for his brother Jblind, he is inactive and not around the game anymore for anything other than holding that admin position with his brother. I came to Roat to play for fun to have something to take up my free time over the years, I've never had any kind of financial incentive to be apart of this server nor have I ever sought out to make money from the wealth that I have accumulated over the years unlike some. I simply wanted to be apart of the game and enjoy it for what it is, had I not had the problems with Smackd over the years I would have probably applied to be apart of your team, and maybe I will someday still, but it does bother me that you would keep such a toxic human being in the position he is in especially if he thinks he wants to be an owner. The whole last 8-12 months of in game and IRL have been really interesting if you know what I mean.
  13. The greatest item/PKP sink of Roat history has arrived! Good lookin update as usual, maybe one day we'll even get a looting bag! πŸ˜†
  14. Thank you for doing a great service for real players of this game @Gretar =]
  15. Lol you're so heated you felt the need to go make a post? Find something better to get urself off to freak rofl
  16. My 2 cents @Gretar, Adding the Staff/orbs to the LMS shop would not be good due to the fact it would limit the people who can earn them to only high tier pkers and eventually i'm sure someone would figure out how to script it as well. If you were to add to the mage arena shop it would only increase the number of afkers/bots sitting there farming points with an already limited amount of NPCs normal players couldn't even think about trying. The PKP shop is a decent idea simply due to the amount of PKP it will sink over time, however, maybe adding a new boss of some sorts with high drop rates weather it's in the wilderness or in safe zone would be cool too. It would be really cool if we could do a custom setup of raids with multiple high tier bosses that require a team of people to even make it through to rewards. As for the Inquisitor armor, I think putting this in the PKP shop for somewhere between 1-5k PKP for a piece would be fine. It'll keep it from becoming a mass merchant item set that people can afford. The mace Would be fine to add into the Bounty hunter shop. @Smackd I do disagree with lowering Justiciar prices simply because it's almost as good as Statius set except it doesn't degrade so it would allow more people to camp it for NSing.

    Lol yet most are degenerate gamblers losing it all every day. I can't really say it's fair to be handing out all of the user names and gear being that i've worked for all that i've got, but i am enjoying seeing more skilled nhers around, and a more active community over all right now @Gretar
