Effectively the numbers stay the same, but it's slightly less clicking. Means you don't have to just let the needle sit in your bank until 85 Runecraft and can get a slight bit of QoL (1 click rather than 2/3/4) if you grab an early Needle. The actual 'buff' from the Needle still only comes into play at 85, just wanted it to be a little more than a bank slot if you score one early (it actually saves bank spaces with this proposal too, I guess)

Happy to pass this one on to the team, whole point of Blighted Supplies is to make it cheaper to get into stuff without losing loads in supplies - makes sense for them to work in CWars etc. if people are on-board!

Ah it's in my Watch Later list atm! Will get through it after work today and make some notes!

Might be nice to just opt for a similar approach to Farming Contracts where you're offered another of the same tier by default and just whack 'Yes'. Will share this one with the team!

The more braziers lit/warm clothing worn reducing damage taken is already how Todt works, can check out the damage formulae here (note W and B being present in the Standard Attack formula). The points of the Warmth meter is to make Todt feel like something you can do whenever you fancy, rather than something you should do as much of as possible pre-17 Hitpoints or waiti...

I could kind of see the case for Elder Maul acting as a hammer. What's your headcanon for chiselling blocks with a bag?

Typo, good spot!

Run Energy Changes stuff still needs some time to cook - we've closed the beta for now and are trying to make time to have further discussions using all of the feedback left to us before we re-surface them. Should be a 'when' rather than an 'if', but the exact nature of the changes needs refining because there's no universe we could release the first iteration in light of the response to it!

Lazy copy/paste of my other message

Heyo! I've been made aware of this issue and have passed on, we're investigating the issue. Would like to hear from anyone who is using the Steam client or Official client on the launcher to see if the issue is replicated there, so point them this way if you know of any

How did you know it was my birthday?

I agree mostly this would be ideal. The case I'm keen to aim for is that there is a meaningful monetary progression ladder for mains...

E.G. Slash Weapons...

• Cool Sword - 100k
• Really Cool Sword - 15m
• Uber Cool Sword - 100m

Realistically they'd have requirements too, say 70, 75, 80.

It's important that the Really Cool Sword doesn't end up so worthless its also close to 100k. It just removes the need for Cool Sword as an option except for players between 70-75 which is obviously done relatively easily.

All of this is to say is we do see monetary progression as a means to have different tiers of power too - which means we do have to care about the price within reason and its very easy for a non BIS weapon, like Really Cool Sword is to be oversupplied, given the Uber Cool Sword isn't that out of reach.

Hence the kind of contradiction I've spoken about a bit - 'niche' stuff ends up wanting t...

To add to this, 99.9% of people are absolutely fantastic and give constructive feedback, maybe a tad emotional too at times but it's all well intentioned.

Sadly with this kind of thing all it takes is a couple of people to go too far targeting certain individuals and not only is it often factually incorrect but it's obviously totally over the line. If someone is keen to pin it on anyone, pin it on me, it's ultimately my responsibility to ensure the design team are putting out the very best work.

Honestly, the game tormented demons are releasing into today is vastly different to the one they did in 2008. The comparison really does highlight the differences in grind lengths and so on OSRS has today.

I mean look at dragon claws themselves - they are a pretty rare item in Chambers of Xeric. The hours to obtain a pair are vastly more than 2008. I'm not necessarily going to defend and say that its right that that is the case, but we're not dealing with like for like situations.

Appreciate the optics of it though and it does paint a picture of the scale of difference. It's noted that many people have gripes with the 'grind creep' we've had.

I do want to go on stream at some point and talk about drop table design, the principles and guidelines that feed into it.

This is no ones individual agenda - this is something we agree on as a team and discuss. It is not factually accurate or fair to pin the blame on any individual. If you want to pin it on anyone, pin it on me, it is my job to ensure the design team get these things right.

Now I'm gonna braindump some thoughts on drop tables...

The grind lengths is a valid concern, something we've been talking about lately as a topic similar to "power creep"... "grind creep". That is that for something to be valuable enough for its power in comparison to alternatives, it needs to take longer to obtain. Now that is a statement that warrants discussion in of itself - but it is something we've been talking about as we recognize the feedback that's been stated repeatedly over a number of releases now.

The big challenge I think we have for drop table de...

Honest answers to these questions... Fever spiders - didn't get the oversight and feedback they needed. It was overly powerful and slipped through the cracks internally. In hindsight, yeah that was silly, it just didn't get the same attention naturally that a new boss/major pvm addition would.

Zombie pirates - mostly because the intention was for it to be as powerful as it was. In light of the PvP risk that was meant to keep it in check. It absolutely does appear absurd for a low level no req creature to drop high amounts but by being in the wilderness in the location it was we were hopeful that it'd be okay. Sadly we were wrong of course and we were too slow in addressing it.

I'm personally keen to talk about drop table design at some point on stream and talk about some of the guidelines and principles we stick to on em. Maybe on a stream at some point! It's not exactly a new problem, we've been tweaking drop tables post launch for a decade now - and I imagine that...

Hi, sorry you are having this issue. We have identified this is affecting older versions of macOS and while we investigate we would advise you update to a more recent version if you can. Please see this article for more info:
