Endeavor

Following on from these polls: https://www.alora.io...re/#entry447612

It seems that the vast majority of players don't vote daily. Reason why: they're mostly ironmen and don't care about the gp reward, and/or the vote shop rewards aren't good enough.

 

1: Add more items to the vote shop which are sought after by players, especially ironmen.

 

Examples:

 

- Imbuement scroll

- Arclight

- Enhanced crystal key

- Marble block

- Goldsmith gauntlets

- Ice gloves

- Bank expansion scroll

- Dark totem pieces

...

 

2: Rename "Daily Rewards" to "Daily Login Rewards". Add a seperate rewards system called "Daily Vote Rewards".

 

Almost identical to current Daily Login system, however it has different rewards. Could be something like this (feel free to suggest different items):

 

Day 1: Crystal key

Day 2: 750 x Blood runes

Day 3: 1x Vote book

Day 4: 75 x Uncut ruby

Day 5: 3 x Crystal key

Day 6: 1 x Vote book

Day 7: 2 x Sherlock's notes

Day 8: 2 x Enhanced crystal key

Day 9: 1 x Vote book

Day 10: 1 x Raid booster

Day 11: 1 x Drop booster

Day 12: 500 x Dragon bolts

Day 13: 2 x Vote book

Day 14: 1 x Cosmetic mystery box

 

You would have to redeem an auth code to unlock the rewards for the day.

 

3: Add more bonus options when vote books are redeemed with 2FA active.

 

Examples:

 

- 1 hour of boosted daily task points

- 1 hour of drop rate boost (lower than drop booster increase, maybe 10%?)

- Option for additional vote points instead of a boost (maybe 30-50%)

- Improve raid point boost (increase to 10% and extend duration to 1 hr)

 

 

QoL suggestions:

 

4: Add the command ;;auth (and ;;claim, ;;claimvote) XXXXX for redeeming auth codes.

 

5: Allow players to claim both login/vote rewards anywhere except PVP areas (currently you can only claim in the home area).

 

 

 

Let me know what you guys think. These are just ideas at the moment so feel free to suggest changes.

This is definitely an interesting one to keep up with. Clue scrolls are always fun. Best of luck on your journey!

 

The streak has been broken! After 7 AMAZING weeks, we have two losses this update. Thanks for your time boys! However, you know we wouldn't post without some good news! Congratulations to the boys promoted.

Completed another 75 easy clue scrolls, totalling the easy clue scrolls count to 100. Check original post for easy clue scrolls collection log update. I obtained the black shield (h1), however, it is not in the easy clue scrolls collection log. I have reported this as a bug. 

 

 

H.A.M Member pickpocket count is currently at 4,332!

Hotfixes [16/2/23]:

• Abyssal Portal Fixes:
  • The Abyssal portal in the Vespula room will now have the proper pathing.
    • Previously, when a player would try to attack the portal in some layouts, it wouldn’t path the player to an attackable tile.
      • This was always the case for Vespula rooms on the second floor.
      • Left-clicking the portal should now always path the player to a tile that they can attack the portal from, but is also underneath Vespula while she is defending the portal.
• Bug fixes:
  • Fixed a bug where some npc’s would no longer be aggressive.
  • Fixed a bug where the wiki banner would sometimes be in the incorrect position when going from resizeable to fixed after dragging the minimap to a new location.
  • Fixed a bug where the second hitsplat would not appear when using the granite maul special attack twice on the same tick.
    • The damage would still register, however it would not visibly appear.
  • Fixed a bug where player's pets would be temporarily deleted until they relogged after manually leaving the grotesque guardians instance.
  • Fixed a bug where players would get a notification that they'd unlocked 2 new songs every time they logged in.
  • The LMS information box will now draw under the xp counter if it is visible, rather than to the left of it.
  • Fixed a bug where leather would be deleted before the player crafted the item, leading to an issue where cancelling the action would result in lost leather and no finished product.
  • Fixed a bug where players would sometimes not be properly notified that they've been granted Apmeken's sight.
  • Fixed a bug where players could freeze Verzik in phase 3 before his web attack, causing him to not properly move to the centre of the room.
  • Skotizo will no longer teleblock players if they have teleblock immunity.
  • Upgrading to expert mining gloves will now properly be logged in the Collection log.
  • The Chambers of Xeric bug which would cause extreme elevation in some rooms should no longer occur.
  • True black username titles can no longer be set, and the option has been replaced with a more gray color.
    • This change was made because it is the exact same color as regular usernames, so it's impossible to tell what part of it is a player's title vs. their username.
    • If you had a black title before, it will now be replaced with this new gray color.
  • The resizeable chatbox transparency will now always properly reset the transparency after another chatbox window closes.
    • Previously, if a player opened a search box, it would often reset the transparency of the chatbox, and lead to strangely coloured text on a non-transparent chatbox.
      • The transparency will now always be reset when these search boxes are closed.
  • Fixed a bug where the 2010/2008 interface styles had the incorrect spellbook sprite on resizeable, and it would disappear when the tab was selected.
  • Non-weakened boulders in the ToA BaBa fight can now be attacked.
  • Tombs of Amascut instance maps will now be spaced out further from other instances (eg. PoH).

What is your suggestion?:

Add a counter to see how many bird's egg you have sacrificed at the shrine.

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Don't think so. 

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

Would be a nice to see how dry you go on evil chicken pieces. 

Hotfixes [13/2/23]:

• Fixed an issue with melee not working when attacking bigger npc’s on certain tiles.
• Fixed an issue with anglerfish not healing when in combat with another player.
• Fixed an issue where players could not use capital letters in their private messages.
• Fixed a bug where npc aggression would end at bosses (such as GWD).
• All divine potions, rather than just the super combat potions, are now tradable.
• The noted master scroll books are now tradable.
• The toxic blowpipe now takes range strength bonuses from equipment into account.
• The Zuriel’s staff idle animation now matches OSRS.
• The elidinis ward (f)/(or)'s value has been increased to match the arcane spirit shield.
• Fixed a bug with the GOTR minigame not working after a few hours of uptime.
• Adjusted run energy to be more similar to how it previously was.

Your suggestion has been accepted.

A neat approach to the game in which I am looking forward to seeing the progress on.

Looks like you have a decent start going on.

 

 

This is a preset I created to solve Easy-Elite/some master clues.

It's nowhere near perfect but it's a start and effective for Alora.

 

 

Quest point cape - Legends Guild/Quick fairy ring

Xerics talisman - Kourend teleports

Digsite pendant - self explanatory

Glory amulet - Draynor

Crafting cape - (max cape perk also)

Kharedst memoirs (Kourend medium diary perk)

Iron pickaxe - doesn't have a STASH unit for it

Music cape - teleport to Falo the bard

Dramen/Lunar staff - Fairy rings

 

Best of luck to you!

 

I have limited access to equipment and other content due to the build of my account, but I will most certainly look into playing around with this RuneLite plugin, and what I have access to in order to help me get around the world and complete clue scrolls at a much faster pace.

 

Thank you! 

Thanks for the super update!

Now I'm waiting for  the Combat Achievements update  :)

What is your suggestion?:

Revert the run energy update.

• Run Energy Changes:
  • Run energy has been changed to effect drain more when a player’s weight is higher.
    • This will make the graceful outfit, or any weight reducing outfits actually have a use.
      • The max weight is capped at 64 kg, and any higher weight will not effect drain.

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

Not much to say really, this run energy change has been met with criticism from pretty much everyone I've spoken to and it has made content less enjoyable for me so I've decided to make this thread. Vote in the poll above, thanks.

Greetings,
 
I joined Alora several weeks ago, and I have had a joyful time trying out a majority of the unique game modes and the thrilling wide-range of content Alora has to offer.
 
Now that I have gained vast knowledge of Alora, I thought I would now "go hard or go home." I have created a novelty account - a Defence pure, and my goal for it is to hunt for the 3rd age melee set by doing clue scrolls. Before I begin this insane goal, I am looking to complete the easy and medium clue scroll logs to warm myself up beforehand.

Big ups for adding a trading post sink. There's been ALOT of discussions on how to fix the economy and this is atleast a start.

Fire updates as usual!

I support, would be a lovely addition to mid to late game UIM-s.

"If you want to sell gear to each other, that's what Realism is for. " - except there is about 20 active players within the entire game mode

 

 

Why does the 20 active players matter?  Doesn't make my statement any less true. 

GIM should not be selling items across the entire GIM economy.  There shouldnt even be a GIM economy.

 

 

 

"Realism was released in 2019 with a separate eco, but it still made sense to some of you guys to support making radical changes." - I thought this thread was about Ironman integrity

 

 

It's to point out the hypocrisy.  People will use 'its been that way since 2019' to justify leaving GIM the way it is, but argue to merge realism ecos despite 'realism having been that way since 2019."  

 

 

"Flip that around.  I'm not willing to try gim right now because the gim integrity is fucked... but hey... if you fix it... I'll promise to play." - okay i flipped it around and i still have hard time to care about it because i communicate with my group as intended, not hoping for influx of realism players in order to have some sort of a marketplace."

 

Imagine a player starts game discussion about issues with nightmare/tob drop rate and ironman integrity -> then staff make this personal -> by questioning my character (do you need someone to talk to?) -> no shit I need someone to talk to -> hence the fucking public discussion thread -> unless you got something to say about the game discussion -> personal comments about the writer should be kept to a minimum

 

"Imagine buying a GIM/EIM tbow.  You would need to provide the 2x GIM removal tickets (2x250 tokens) + pay the person who sold you the GIM tbow." - you forgot to add the 20+ day waiting timer"

GIM items shouldn't be traded across a GIM eco.  There's a blatant integrity issue here.  A 20 day cooldown for the ability to purchase an entire GIM bank is like a little time out for cheating the entire integrity of ironman.

 

"Great!  Now you know how the Realists felt when the staff & non-realism players started a suggestion + vote to merge a game mode they don't play." - why make this personal? this thread is about ironmen integrity, the feelings of realism players are supposedly irrelevant when it comes to ironmen modes. 

I didn't make this personal.  If I made it personal -> I would be saying something about Brambo, the player.

Instead, I kept it on topic.  Stating that his reasoning (that I should just stick to realism and leave EIM/GIM alone) is exactly how a lot of Realism players felt when ironmen tried to outvote and merge all we have worked for.

 

"Flip that around.  I'm not willing to try gim right now because the gim integrity is fucked... but hey... if you fix it... I'll promise to play." - okay i flipped it around and i still have hard time to care about it because i communicate with my group as intended, not hoping for influx of realism players in order to have some sort of a marketplace.

 

Wow!  That's exactly how realists felt when staff members tried to argue "Realism is too hard for new players.  Make it easier and we promise we will play. 

We literally dont care.  We communicate as intended.  Not hoping for an influx of normie players on realism in order to have some sort of marketplace.  Why?  we already have a working marketplace. 

Meanwhile, on GIM many of you have openly admitted the GIM integrity is currently fucked.

 

It is not even funny, how you are pointing out the realism topic, which has been in the history books for couple of months, several times. This just shows that you are still pissed about that topic and tryna create unnecessary attention within the forums. You aren't doing your reputation a favour with that, in fact your reputation is that frog in the well you talked about.

 

Why can't I point out the realism topic?  

It's a discussion and I am free to discuss any recent events.

If staff can strip my veteran rank on January 30th for something that happened in December (without providing any evidence), I can continue to discuss the implications of a realism merge (also happened in December). 

By the way, check out the staff replies -> you guys fail to discuss the topic without making this about Alan 

Why can't you guys just disagree on the game content without making personal attacks on the writer?

Btw, you're using the frog in the well analogy wrong.

A frog in a well is someone who has seen very little, yet makes big claims about the world.

I know this game far better than most, and I'm not scared to formulate my own opinions and share them with the community.

I want my reputation to be someone who always speaks his mind. 

I refuse to be a sheep, ignoring integrity/drop rate issues and going with the crowd just because that's the way it's always been.

I am a realist, and I don't give a fuck what anyone else thinks.
