Update Notes / Re: Updates September 6h 2018 - Key Bindings, Drop Overhauls and Combat Balancing

Is it still 40xp per 1 or did it get buffed for 80exp per 1?

Combat Experience Rates
Let's just say I was wrong - 20xp per hit are way too low. We are changing the combat xp rates back to 80 xp per hit. Progress shouldn't be that slow and frustrating in emps. Afterall most of our content is designed for end-game and that should also be achievable in a fairly normal amount of time. The whole experience gained thing before and after level 99 has also been removed. It's always 80 xp per hit.

So, yes. It's 80 xp per hit again.

Suggestions & Ideas / Boss item collection log

« on: August 28, 2018, 06:37:08 am »

This log would be viewable in-game. It tracks what items you've gotten from which boss. Only unique drops would be tracked obviously.
This has been a feature in Runescape 3 for quite a long time now but recently OSRS has started developing it as well. Completing a collection log for certain boss could also unlock an in-game icon?

OSRS does it the same way as RS3 but more oldschool-ey interface. Here's a preview of RS3 version:
Things that are dropped by multiple bosses are shared i.e visages, godsword shards

Can I come spectate?

To join, you must have a risk of at least 10mil.  There are no restrictions as to what level your account must be, but it is strongly recommended that you use a high-level account, as this will be hosted in the deep wilderness.  Your items are not safe.  This event will be hosted in a private setting that will be inaccessible to anyone who is not part of the event.

I do assume that says it pretty clearly and includes spectators. This is just to avoid any confusion.
I've also bolded the statement in case anyone else was wondering about it.

General Discussion / Re: it's time to make a change!

« on: August 17, 2018, 05:36:40 pm »

You should take a loot at Trello and few latest patch notes where Thomy shows off or mentions some progress on oldschool stuff.

and trust me it' worth the risk

It's not about the risks or anything, you have to understand Emps has only one developer who also has a busy real life and cannot work with Emps every single day and sometimes not in a whole week if longer.
"Just" changing the game to oldschool or opening a new server that's oldschool stylish would just double the workload -> managing both games. It's a humongous/unrealistic amount of work.

Suggestions & Ideas / Re: Slayer points

« on: August 12, 2018, 06:06:25 pm »

I am still trying to understand what did you mean by 1:1
like both of the options i have in mind are worse than each other.
1 sp for 1k slayer xp - OP af
1 sp for 1 xp - uh wat ?

can you make it a bit clear before I can give my opinion on it ? Thank you
i feel like I am the stupid one around after all of these replies lol

1 Point equals 1 XP. That's underpowered though.
Idk any balanced rates really, 1 point = 50/100 xp would sound better. It could just be an extra thing for people who are going towards 250m xp but seeing people disagreeing it's probably not a good suggestion.

Suggestions & Ideas / Slayer points

How about being able to buy slayer xp with slayer points?
1:1 ratio or 1:2 ratio perhaps?

Could make the base stats of the helm scale from levels 1 to 50? Or even 60. Bonus during slayer tasks it provides would stay the same on all tiers.

Second suggestion I have would be upgradeable tiers. You make the helm and it has level 1 stats. You're then able to buy tier upgrades with slayer points. 5 In total.
First upgrade would upgrade it to tier 20 -> second upgrade to tier 30 and 3rd to tier 50.
Last 2 upgrades would then grant you the bonuses during slayer task and a new feature where you're able to use ferocious rings to it giving it charges and using the helm to teleport then.
This is exact opposite from your suggestion though.

• Double Minigame Token - This token would be a consumable item. You carry these with you and consume one whenever you win or lose a round of PC/Emps-Wars granting you double tokens.

- Double Minigame Token - These would be better as an aura which is consumable upon completing 10 or so mini-games.

Tbh this might work as an aura better than a token. It could grant 1.25x or 1.5x modifer on minigame tokens and the aura could then be given more charges so it wouldn't break so soon. This would fit as a member benefit as well though

Few ideas:

These items would be added as their own thing because if these were obtainable through voting boxes they wouldn't fit that good imho. All the current rare gilded items would be obtainable from these as a very rare reward.

• Double XP scrolls for specific skill - You would get a random scroll assigned to a certain skill (i.e Thieving XP scroll) and this would last for 1 hour.
• Double Minigame Token - This token would be a consumable item. You carry these with you and consume one whenever you win or lose a round of PC/Emps-Wars granting you double tokens.
• Permanent auras - These would have to be very expensive. These auras would be called superior. (i.e Superior vampyrism)
• Skilling & combat packs - These would contain items what their names suggest. Also a rare chance to obtain XP lamp.
• Teleport packs - Also what the name suggest, would contain random teleport tabs.
• Blood money modifier - Not so sure about this but possibly some consumable item that grants you 1.5x or 2x blood money on next kill/next X kills.

Voting hiscores would be interesting as well. This would reset once a month probably? Could have lifetime top 3/5 for everything that's added too.

Reset lamps grant you 1k XP instead of taking away 1k xp.
