u/JagexOsborne I believe you said you were into card games, should see this one.

This thread has already been shared around the office in our Slack channels and we love it to absolute bits. As a big Chronicle player at the time, I would love to have had this in my stocking! Well done on the finish, detail and love in putting it together

  • Sundry Beans cost 400 beans each and you can plant them in:
    • Mushroom Patch. You're guaranteed to get Morchella Mushrooms, which give
      • 859 experience, which means you get 2.14 XP per bean
      • 18 Morchella Mushrooms (72k) and 0.18 Baby Zygomites (19k), yielding 252,2 gp/bean
    • Hops Patch. You get either Reeds or God Grapes, with equal distribution of both.
      • (1130 (reeds) + 3530 (grapes)) / 2, which is 5.82 XP per bean. Note that actual XP per bean is higher as you can get more (but not less) than 10 grapes, especially with Greenfingers aura
      • 1.8 Saradomin and 3.6 Zamorak grapes per seed, worth about 126k gold per Sundry Bean which is 324 gold per bean. Again, realistically it's higher, plus you can also sell Guthix grapes and produce from Reeds f...

Much obliged.

I, for one, have just changed what I was planning to do with my beans over DXP. :)

I recommend using Beans for Sundry Brans rather than Woody. They are slower to farm/gather but the yield is so much higher

In your case it's either:

  • Woody Beans: ~1 700 000 Farming XP
  • Sundry Beans: ~2 400 000 1 740 000 Farming XP and 90M cash

EDIT: fixed Sundry beans XP, didn't take Reeds into account

What patches are getting you those values?

Just to note, Mod Cel commented about this and said they would have the accuracy of the style you're using (so if you're meleeing with 100% accuracy, bombs will have 100% accuracy). The comment is here, although it would be nice for them to double confirm on stream as this was originally 'up in the air' last time they discussed on stream.

Bombs will share accuracy with your normal attacks, so using ingenuity of humans will guarantee 100% hitchance with a bomb.

Hello /u/JagexHypnos, thank you for the update.

Not sure if you are the person to talk to about this, but currently there are no labels on the Lodestone Map, shown in the image below

https://i.redd.it/nblxrcip8mk31.jpg

Would it be possible to add the names of the cities somewhere on the map, or in the long-press menu for the new players who will be joining as well as those of us who have issues with memorization?

Thanks for the feedback. Real estate's a bummer there but we'll see what we can do.

Are there any plans to reinstate access for devices that meet all the specs and were working, but that without warning were declared "incompatible"?

This has happened A LOT during the beta, and I for one won't be returning to the game unless and until someone at least gives a straight answer to the question....

The straight answer is yes. The caveat is that I'm not sure whether or not your device fits into the short-term fix we have planned, or the long-term one. If it was working before then there's a higher chance that the short-term fix, which we're hoping to release soon, would address the issue. I'll send out a post when I have details on when we can deliver that.

Hey Mod Hypnos,

On the issue of incompatible devices, is there any plans to put out a list of devices which ARE compatible? Many players want to buy mobile devices in order to play, but are afraid to spend hundreds on a device that may not be compatible.

Thanks! :D

At the moment the limiter is based on the Android OS, so if the device had at least Android 7 or above when it was first purchased, you should be good to go, but I would say don't go out and buy a device for this just yet, because we're working on a short-term fix as well as a long-term solution that doesn't have a limiter at all. We're a ways off from that, but there's progress!
