Suggestions & Ideas / Re: Flax/bow strings
« on: March 23, 2017, 01:40:40 pm »
Why would you even want to string your bows if the exp rates are so off? Isn't it quicker to just fletch unfinished bows till 99?

At the moment if you have to pick the flax yourself and turn them into bow strings, yes, just fletching without stringing is faster. But if you just buy bow strings as a non-ironman, then stringing is faster.

As far as the suggestion is concerned, the xp rates are fine and shouldn't be changed.
If a person is willing to invest more time and/or money (more compared to just logs) to get bow strings/make bows, they're rewarded with more xp. Easy as that.

Yeah, you do get more exp, but the xp/hour is lower when stringing the bows if you have to pick the flax by yourself. (assuming the whole bow is made from scratch).

Suggestions & Ideas / Flax/bow strings
« on: March 23, 2017, 12:52:58 pm »
Greetings.
So, I've done some fletching on my fresh ironman, and things have been going fine so far. Well, until I decided to do some flax picking to string my bows that is.

Picking flax is slow. Around 1000 an hour. This is exactly the same rate they have OSRS. I feel like picking flax should either be made faster or there should be a mid level monster which drops flax/bow strings. So far the only ones which do drop bow strings are Kree'Arra and Spectral cultivator. Neither of them are accessible for me at the moment, and the amount they drop is quite small in the grand scheme of things.

Another suggestion I would like to propose, if this is something the staff doesn't want to do, is to equal out the experience between fletching a bow and stringing it. At the moment stringing gives around 3x more exp than fletching does (~250 vs ~750 for maple long). I feel like this would be an adequate alternative.

Thank you for reading my proposal. All and any feedback is welcome.

I think the minigame rewards should also be attainable in some other way also (slayer points etc). Sometimes doing minigames to get items as an ironman can be a pain, as you can't just buy the items from ge. Another possibility is to lower the required player count and increase the ticket count.

You may want to nerf ice giants droptables. They are level 53 with 70hp and they can be safespotted. They drop tons and tons of rune items. Way too much for their level.
