What is your suggestion?: increase the number of uses on a yama contract to 5

Is this in OSRS?: no, osrs has an incredibly large player base to easily support contract fails

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: no

How would this benefit Alora?:

 

the servers playerbase while plenty to support enjoyable group content and gameplay, simply isnt enough to support the mechanic of yama contracts being consumed upon failure. while i am aware that contracts are not consumed upon success, i am ofc talking about the amount of practice that will be required to get that success. i feel our server would benefit from a contract having maybe 5 failuire attempts per, instead of 1. we simply dont have the playerbase interacting with this kind of content and influx of contracts to allow more than a single digit number of players to reliable have multiple practice attempts pet contract.

 

for reference, this is what ive obtained personally after 250 yama kills, its simply not feasible to have them single use

I support this message

Support. Would be a nice qol

[Maliketh]

Support, or make dossier drop more commonly...which ever makes more sense

[Yautja]

support, player base too small another buff is needed imo

I would like a gold sink to get more practice runs for zero benefit (regular loot table) and it would only be specific contracts (no kit/Oathplate ones). OSRS has a sink but it is 100 pineapple pizzas to practice worms/shard/catalyst contracts only (which I found fair but 100 pizzas for 1 attempt is stupid and makes no sense lmao).

For the other contracts you get a good amount of them per dossier now and you can kill the small demons for kit contracts as well. Maybe it could give 5-7 instead of 3 of the kit ones but making it 5x for all of them seems too much, especially for the non kit contracts like Oathplate and shard contracts. Oathplate contract is stupidly hard (at least in OSRS) and sits in a weird place overall.

this suggestion overall was more aimed at the 5/5 oathplate kit contracts specifically tbh and it was also posted before omicro changed them to drop 3 per dossier. i would be perfectly happy with the other contracts being 1 use only because lets be honest, nobody is going to interact with any of them except the pet one.

as far as the 5/5 oathplate contracts go, i still feel 3 per dossier is too few for our playerbase, im fully expecting people to take anywhere up to like 40 or 50 attempts at some of the more difficult ones and we simply dont have the influx of that many contracts on the server to allow more than 1 or 2 people to do it.

I don't think its necessary to further buff the number of uses per contract now that dossiers are providing the proper amount of radiant contracts. I think a good compromise would be to have the demons in the Chasm of Fire also drop multiple contracts. This removes the RNG element of having to roll a dossier from Yama, along with it being a specific contract if you only need one specific type to finish the Purifying sigil. This would also be a decent AFK money maker for players that wish to sell desired contracts.

Your suggestion has been declined, if you feel this was wrongfully done please contact a Senior Moderator+. This suggestion just isn't something we're willing to implement. If implemented, it would be rather confusing to players who didn't know the mechanic existed, and technically would consume a lot of time to implement, especially when there are other alternatives to achieve the same result (such as increased rates from demons in the chasm of fire).
