Skill of the Day: Rework [2/2]

What is your suggestion?:

Reworking the Skill of the Day Calendar

Suggestion 2 of 2:

Reworking the overlapping Skills with "Resource dependent" options.

Is this in OSRS?:

No.

Skill of the Day is unique to Alora.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

From the short research I made on Dante's post here @Here and Mack's Post @Here,

I have not found any other suggestion similar.

How would this benefit Alora?:

Out of the 22 (hopefully soon 23) skills available on Skill of the Day bonus, most of the overlapping skills are Combat-related / Easy-to-train Skills.

For the overlapping 7-8 skills on the bonus, it would be beneficial to have a secondary SotD for some of Alora's most resource-dependent skills.

Some skills I would suggest we replace would be:

Herblore

Cooking

Smithing

Crafting

Runecrafting

Construction

Fletching

Prayer [Already twice on SotD]

Would love to hear if the community if there are some skills they're rather have instead of the mentioned skills above! 

To make sure I'm understanding correctly, are you suggesting that the skills you've listed would no longer be part of the skill of the day rotation? Feels like many of those (Herblore, Runecrafting, Crafting, Fletching, Smithing) are ones that are a benefit to have bonus experience for. I'd rather see things like the combats dropped from the rotation, like the combats, as people will train those regardless

Better put — on a 31-day month, what is your proposed schedule?

A second herblore day would be really nice

I'm kind of neutral on this one though. The combat SOTD's are a bit bland, I agree, but it makes some of the other SOTD's that much more exciting.

To clarify, I would remove the second rotation of Str, Def, (ect) and replace them with skills such as Herblore (we would have 2 Herblore SotD) :) 

Let me know if this clarifies!

Got it! Yeah I interpreted the original as suggesting to remove those, something about saying "Some skills I would suggest we replace would be..." sounds like you're suggesting to replace those, not replace others with those. Thanks for clarifying.

That in mind, pretty on board with this! I do think that the combat skill of the day days are kinda a wash. Most people will kill shit on any day!

Im all for dumping the 2nd rotation of cb stats for skilling stats. It feels like those just drag on and on for too long

SUPPORT

ALL HAIL OUR LORD AND SAVIOR SIRKERAVNOSL

I lend my support to this concept, even if it hasn't been implemented in OSRS. I believe it could bring positive benefits to Alora. It's a thoughtful suggestion.

I had this thought also, it makes sense to me given combat is really 'no time' if you plan to do slayer to 99 (and post) and bossing (with or without slayer). I support. 

i 100% agree with a rework for sotd, either as you listed to add harder skill for a 2nd time after the 22th ( 23th if atk gets added)

                                                                                         or

as @H said on your other topic ( part 1) to randomize those other days (22th to 31th) ( 23th if atk gets added)

no support. 

Combats are not affected by other exp bonuses, so it make sense for them to have multiple day bonuses. 

(this matters more for lower exp modes / ppl going for 200ms)
