It's a very good place to tie into an Abbinah/aviansie focused quest, even if it deviates from what Rite of Passage was originally going to be.

EDIT: There's also the potential to put an elder artifact on Abbinah, because the artifact Armadyl used to obtain godhood is currently unknown but is stated to not be the Staff of Armadyl, and he ascended before uniting the aviansie.

As the person who designed the original RoP, it absolutely could work. I even left behind a possible design for it in the current age. Would need some tweaks following some of the more recent stuff, but there's nothing there that couldn't work in the modern setting. ;)

That said, I wouldn't bank on it, lol. Also I would like to think that if Jagex did want to do it, they'd at least reach out to me.

I'll investigate this as your generic abilities that simply consume adrenaline should work here ( Finger of Death, Bloat, etc).

Nice! I got to Hermod last night as well, and it's been awesome to be playing Full Manual while bossing for once. Good luck on your learning journey - go get Rasial!

Yeah this is definitely something we're aware of - we're discussing the feedback and how best to address it.

Hey! Actually saw your separate post about this - couldn't repro for now, but have raised for us to have a deeper look at tomorrow (the original fix was not reverted)

oh really thats very interesting didn't know that. Do you know if Corruption shot/blast are impacted by it? As well as maybe Slaughter and Blood Tendrils?

I would add that Gconc is also relatively effected by this, less so than the above listed abilities but still noticeably so. Each hit of Gconc does ~ 47%, 53%, 60% average ability damage (my numbers are not precise this is from memory). Assuming 1800 ability damage thats

846, 954, and 1080 damage per hit (2880 total), if the overloads were adding a flat 84 dmg per hit. This extra overload boost was adding 8.75% extra damage to Gconc in this napkin math scenario. So by no means an insignificant amount of damage. I could also see similarly sized damage impacts to regular Fury, Piercing Shot, and MAYBE Greater Dazing shot (puncture stacks specifically)

Thanks for the response, I do agree that adding it to the tooltip sounds like a NIGHTMARE. I've had a hard time explaining it to alot of friends due to how c...

Corruptions / slaughter / tendies also wouldn't be affected by potion boost

Yeah would agree, depending on how/what the resolution is, i think the 'lost' damage from gconc could be better served somewhere else in mage if it keeps the same DPS for an overal rotation.

Personally I would lean towards removing it and adjusting the abilities that are heavily impacted by it, but maybe there is a better way?

This is the sorta thing we're looking at -find the best way to remove it with as little negative impact as possible.

Hey an earlier hotfix caused this. The team is working on a fix to resolve this asap. Apologies for the inconvienience

Edit: btw thanks for the great writeup, always great to know this is being looked at with care!

Necro will not receive it no. It was designed with that in mind. :)

I've done this too - should be going live on monday

I'm also looking into the best solutions for increasing visibility on certain random events (e.g shambling horror sparkles, wandering soul brightness, more audio cues)

Should be getting it pretty soon with the recent hotfix to give the drumsticks bad luck mitigation https://twitter.com/RuneScape/status/1689292494591148032?t=u6ScodrqNorRB4eA-GAVUA&s=19

Based Sponge, thank you for reverting this.

I agree with you that its not so good to have this bug existing, . The easy solution is to add it to the OVL tooltip, but I do think it would be cleaner to remove it and rebalance the abilities most impacted, those being Magma Tempest, Basic Bleeds (Dismember, Combust, Frag shot), Grico, BD.

Appreciate the reply! - will look to go through others soon too.

Part of the issue with adding it to the tooltip is that it's not exclusive to overloads but anything in game that can stat boost you. Which ends up being a whole lot that needs to dynamically state the boost depending on the how much it's boosting by. That and I struggle to find a way to actually explain the boost in simple terms. It is a nice idea though.

Interestingly in your list the basic bleeds aren't/weren't actually affected by the stat boost previously iirc

Folks are taking a second look, by chance did you already have 10 helwyr seals?

Comment

Quick double check, you got 10 seals and then it stopped dropping?

Are you killing the same boss or killing all 4 ?

Errrr, the seals arent dropping again?

Should be, have you not received the souls while killing the bosses with necromancy?

If so could you give me a clip?
