What is your suggestion?

 Olm should not be hitting us with specials when running the head and skipping them. This makes for super jank and generally un-fun gameplay. Praying melee and just face tanking specials is not a solution to this. 

 

Is this in OSRS?

 Yes

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?

 From what I have gathered by talking to numerous others who also hate this mechanic, no.

 

How would this benefit Alora?

 It would make one of the biggest pieces of content actually reward you for being technical as opposed to being a shitshow you just endure for the sake of loot.

Idk what you are talking about, you can dodge every special and avoid pretty much all dmg from olm if you know what are you doing. Neutral

The special attacks shouldn't be occurring at all if you're running the head correctly, that's the point he's trying to establish here.

I already suggested this ages ago. It was actually implemented according to the update logs a few months ago, but never actually worked in game. Hopefully a hotfix comes soon. I already submitted a bug report about it to Omicron several months ago.

Actually he's right, you still get attacked even if you're running head, which shouldn't be the case.

   You do get specials while running head which is very annoying and shouldn't be a thing I agree, but those red spikes that you do get are all avoidable, the lightning is all avoidable. 

 

So I support the idea of maybe reworking it and fixing it. However I don't think it's a huge problem. Plus, if it hasn't been changed yet it's probably not likely.

   

 

Support.

Olm is a bug in general. Where are those melee / magic skip part? The falling stones(what you guys call ''red portal'') should fall quicker(which is in OSRS). Also Olm does range attacks, which isn't here on Alora.

 

Is this the reason why people are doing solos now instead of teams?

So you are saying there should be no spikes (red portals) at all if you run the head perfectly? I honestly don't know how it should behave cuz I never seen it in osrs xD But I feel like it would be just too easy if the spikes would be removed.

Advise me if im wrong tho.

Yeah basically, on OSRS you can dodge all of the attacks if you do it correctly.
