#309121 Better Client

Posted by Omicron on 08 August 2019 - 05:18 PM

@JBG Hey, I'll look into this. Could be neat to have it packaged rather than a jar. Keep in mind that jars are cross-platform and should work on Linux/Windows/Mac assuming the user has Java installed. The image you linked is broken, though (403 forbidden).




#308791 Small QoL to bracelet of slaughter

Posted by LTG Arrow on 06 August 2019 - 11:19 AM

Im suggesting that we add a small qol to the bracelet of slaughter. 

 

Currently this is the text you receive once the bracelets effect is triggered: 

425deb52ec97b79eebfc09a2dbd749d7.png

 

My suggestion is to add the following to that announcement " the bracelet now have x amount of charges left"

 

This would make up for the fact that u can't "check" the charges remaining once you wear the bracelet, if u would like to check the charges left you would have to take it off. 

 

Lmk what yall think.

Hello everyone, some of you old players may remember me as Chase. I wanted to showoff some of my recent works I've done over the last few months.

Recently, I just finished an apprenticeship as a tattoo artist, and now I am getting back into school to finish my CS degree.

Here are some commission and personal projects I've been working on or have finished.

#308653 Cannon Qol

Posted by J boogs on 04 August 2019 - 10:05 PM

What is your suggestion?:

My suggestion is adding a overlay to tell you how many cannonballs are left in your cannon. Just how there is a veng and barrage timer, and even the well and vote timers, something along the lines of these in-game timers. I was thinking, if this was added, it would be best to add it how OSRS has it viewing right above the cannon.

 

 Here is a example..

Spoiler

 

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes, it may only be a overlay thing.

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

From what I searching and asking around, no.

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

I feel this will only benefit players, especially those lower levels that use cannoning as a resource to train range. This will allow the player to know when it's time to make a move to fill up their cannon! This also will also come in handy to those who do a lot of afk training with a cannon to agro for them. This can help a player gauge how much longer he/she can task via afk, until they need to pay attention to fill their cannon, as well as attacking a new NPC, so on and so forth..

 

This obviously isn't a endeavoring need to add this, especially with the awesome new content @Omicron already currently has in store for us, but I feel it's defiantly something that should be passed onto the to-do list!

 

Please leave your thoughts/comments on this suggestion below,!

 

Kind Regards,

 

Boogs




#308528 Completionist Monkey update

Posted by lol Rip on 03 August 2019 - 03:29 PM

What is your suggestion?:

With the release of the gauntlet approaching, I suggest that we add a requirement to the competitionist monkey of completing the hard guantlet. For those of you that don't know, is OSRS, upon first completion of the corrupt gauntlet, the player receives the cosmetic cape. I suggest this to be a requirement for the monkey as it is a difficult achievement and should be required of someone who has "completed" the game.

P.S. I have a monkey and would be happy to lose mine until I achieve my first corrupt gauntlet completion.

Is this in OSRS?: N/a
Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No
How would this benefit Alora?: Additional legitimate completion requirements


#308507 Development Blog #7: Forthos Dungeon, The Gauntlet & Prifddinas

Posted by Omicron on 03 August 2019 - 01:48 PM

Hey guys,

We've been working hard on a huge update to add the very latest content from OSRS to Alora, and we decided we'd fill everyone in on the progress. Due to the size of this update, and wanting to get it all out together, we're postponing this week's update until everything is completed and ready to be released.

There is plenty of content coming this update, with many small quirky features within the Forthos dungeon as well as a new boss. There's also a new pet, a plethora of new equipment and weapons that will be released with the city of Prifddinas, on top of the Gauntlet which is a challenging new dynamic dungeon in which you enter without any items and must use the resources provided to defeat the boss in hopes of finding loot.

Brief outline:

  • Forthos dungeon
    • Sarachnis boss
      • Sraracha pet & Sarachnis cudgel (weapon)
    • Grubby chest
  • The Gauntlet
    • Solo dungeon exploration mini-game
    • Youngllef pet
    • Gauntlet cape (Corrupted/Hard mode)
    • New weapon (Blade of Saeldor) + Crystal resources (seeds)
  • Prifddinas city
    • Singing bowl
      • New armour, weapon and tool creation
    • Elven crystal chest
  • Prifddinas dungeon
  • Zalcano
    • Skilling mini-game similar to Wintertodt
    • Smolcano pet + skilling rewards

We're very excited to be able to release this content to you in the near future, and although we don't have an exact ETA due to the scope of the update, we're working our hardest to make sure that we get it out as quickly as possible :)

#308424 28 Rare Item Challenge (failed >~<)

Posted by Chase legend on 02 August 2019 - 06:30 PM

Haven't done this in awhile, so lets see if there's any summer rng luck left in the tank

Summary: As the name implies, i will be grinding out various npcs and bosses ingame for drops that will appear over yell (Example: Tanz fang, magic fang, uncut oynx, etc). This will continue until i reach 28, or a full invent, of such items. After completing the challenge, the entire invent will be given away.

Extra:

  • Any duplicate rares will be stacked rather than take up another invent slot (example: 2 blowpipes will count towards 1 invent space, yes their not stackable but you should get the idea)
  • Time limit: My goal is to complete this challenge before the end of the month, where everyone would usually go back to school late August/early September, Failure to complete the challenge will result in my own items being donated to the invent + extras (if i have any)
  • Any pets obtained = 5m cash stack to the invent/prize pool

Lets see how much rng i have left :P tho it does feel pretty good to be doing the 28 rare item challenge again


List of Rares:

  • Granite maul x1
  • Crystal seed x2
  • Magic Fang x3
  • Kraken Tent  x4
  • Eternal crystal  x1
  • Bandos Tassets  x1
  • Zamorak spear  x1
  • Abyssal whip  x2
  • pegasian crystal x1
  • Seers ring  x1
  • Imbued Heart  x1
  • Tanzanite fang  x1
  • Crystal weapon seed (from gaunlet)  x1

            However, zulrah now drops it (once the regular crystal seed) so it

             wont count towards the challenge

  •  Armadyl chainskirt  x1
  • Armadyl hilt (convert to ags)  x1
  • Smouldering Stone  x1
  • Staff of the dead  (will think whether or not to turn into tsotd)  x1
  • Cash (from pets *new or old doesn't matter) x15m



#308421 The 'I never thought I'd be posting here' post.

Posted by Formula One on 02 August 2019 - 06:25 PM

G'day all,

After lurking on the 'Farewells' topic I'd never thought I myself would be posting here too.

In short, after being away for work for the past ~30 days and coming back home and to the game - I lost a bit of momentum to play.
My initial goals (https://www.alora.io...mp-monkey-post/) will currently be put on hold for a bit longer as I'll be focusing on more components in real life.

I've decided to start a new EIM just to play from time to time and to try to catch up on all the crazy updates omicron released while I was away.

You may occasionally come across me dying to a boss or dying to a pure on my main, though it's possible at some stage down the line I may log off for the last time without knowing it.

Even though I may not be physically playing, I'll still try to vote to support this awesome server.

Hopefully everyone enjoys their lushes gains and stays safe!


#308305 Loot from 1.000 KC (Zulrah)

Posted by LTG Arrow on 02 August 2019 - 01:41 AM

After recently hitting the first 1.000 kc at zulrah, I decided I would share my collection log with whoever should be interested in it. I consider this as being pretty lucky:

The log:

Looking forward to grind even more for the pet. (I have 8 in total on 2 other accounts with 1.500 kc combined lol).

#308309 Bonjour

Posted by Emergo on 02 August 2019 - 03:02 AM

Hello friends,

 

I recently joined Alora because I got bored of the OSRS grind. I played this server before - a few years ago I think - but I cannot remember my username anymore. Here's to a fresh start!

I just started my main, Emergo, which I hope to be maxing soon. I look forward to meeting you all in-game and on the Discord, which I recently joined too. I am kind of a forums buff usually, so I think you will all see me around here a lot too :) In conclusion: see you inside and outside the game! Happy grinding :)

 

Emergo




#308406 Barrows more similar to OSRS

Posted by Butt Head on 02 August 2019 - 02:46 PM

Just like the title says i think barrows should be reworked to be more similar to OSRS, if not 100% the same maybe some functions can be added like kill % potential by killing npc's in increase loot or making it so one of the brothers is somewhere in the tunnels. This would greatly increase people's interest in barrows and maybe people would be more apt to do it since it's not so boring and mindless. Along with this i also think it could have a positive change to the economy in that making barrows items harder to obtain will increase the value to almost all of the items. Most of these items now are only like 1m in the tp with k tops and dharoks being the only ones to have any value whatsoever. I really hope we take this into consideration and lets revamp barrows !!! Thank you!!

 

 

Added thoughts: I also believe we should get rid of the random set for 15k pts and the barrows pts system altogether, but obviously we can poll this issue if we decide to move on with this update. Doing this will add to the realism we want to recreate on Alora and also adding to the difficulty of completing ones collection log. I know a lot of you guys will be nervous to do this because they will have to work harder to get items but we are adding to the longevity of the game and our overall experience!
