Date & time of updated rule: Saturday, January 27th, 2024, 4:20 PM GMT

 

Updated section: 9. Multi-Logging

 

Time or date that the updated rule(s) will be put into effect: Immediately

 

Part(s) added, changed or removed: RED

 

Multi-logging is not against the rules of Alora, as we do allow players to be logged into multiple accounts at once (maximum of 3 connections at any one time).

 

• a. Playing on multiple accounts at once while participating in the same skill, boss, minigame, or activity outside of the wilderness is allowed up to 3 accounts at a time. Anything that exceeds that will be deemed a violation and the appropriate punishment will be handed to all accounts involved.

 

We have decided to up the limit on how many accounts a single user can log into at once to 5. Important to note that this still means that you can't use more than 3 accounts at the same activity.

 

 

 

Alora's Official Rules can be found here.

This month we have some great interviews from Ryuu & Gim Joseph. Enjoy the read!

 

H: If you could make any content of your own and implement it into Alora, What would it be?

Ryuu: I know literally every ironman wants a cooking NPC so I would go with that.

 

H: What is one piece of advice you'd give a new player to Alora?

Ryuu: As Alora is a server which is a near-perfect copy of OSRS, a new player would find everything they need to know on the OSRS Wiki - it's one of the best sources of information out there.

 

H: If you had to pick 1 skill on OSRS and remove it from the game to cause the MOST overall damage to the game/economy, which skill would you choose and why?

Ryuu: I believe removing Prayer from OSRS would cause the most damage. Most of PvM content requires you to use overhead prayers. Without overheads 90% of bosses would be nearly impossible and would have to be reworked completely.

 

H: What are your current goals (long term/short term or both) that you are currently working towards?

Ryuu: In-game I am slowly working towards finishing all of the Combat Achievements and greenlogging more Collection log slots.

 

H: If you were to go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

Ryuu: I grew up in a small town in Estonia and never really been out of the country much. I would love to go visit big cities like New York, Miami, Tokyo, Shanghai, Paris and many others.

 

Next up is Gim Joseph

 

H: If you could make any content of your own and implement it into Alora, What would it be?

Gim Joseph: I would add in a new area to explore with new quest, and new bosses, Demi-bosses and a group boss which can’t be solo’d, the new region would bring content which would have content for low/mid/end game items. Also a new mini-game that wave tiered like inferno, but it’s like Dominion Tower, wave by wave face bosses head on to see how far you can get, with rewards like a T90 armour and weapons, higher grade skilling items like explosive pickaxe  which has the ability to crush the rock and receive 4-6 ores, slightly faster than crystal, a lumberjacks hatchet.

 

H: What is one piece of advice you'd give a new player to Alora?

Gim Joseph: Be the best player you can be, don’t give up and keep on grinding, if you need any help don’t be afraid to ask, there is always someone there to help you, be it a staff member or a normal player in the Alora CC.

 

H: If you had to pick 1 skill on OSRS and remove it from the game to cause the MOST overall damage to the game/economy, which skill would you choose and why?

Gim Joseph: would choose Herblore because pretty much everyone relies on potions, can you imagine the fear everyone would have as the potions started to run out, getting to the last ones, it would ruin farming, bosses, slayer, camping monsters like bandits, could you imagine people trying to do inferno/nex/tob/cox without potions ohh the chaos would be great.

 

H: What are your current goals (long term/short term or both) that you are currently working towards?

Gim Joseph: My current long term goal is to achieve a maxed GIM, as I’ve never played on an Ironman before so it’s all new to me, and I’m really enjoying it and learning to be self sufficient as much as I can with my Team, as I don’t want to let them down. Short term goal is reaching 99 slayer as it’s by far my fave skill to do apart from Herblore/construction.

 

H: If you were to go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

Gim Joseph: Aotearoa or New Zealand as most people know it as, it’s one place I’ve always wanted to go to, I’m really fascinated with the Māori culture, and I’d love to spend time there learning all about it, and learning the language.
