What is your suggestion?: Add pie boosts to the game

Is this in OSRS?: Yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?:

As of right now, the only pie in the game is the summer pie. This acts as an agility boost.

The only alternate way to obtain skilling boosts is spicy stews, which are never guaranteed to roll the correct stat - and are very limited as a vote reward. modes that cant trade are restricted to one per day.

Currently there are no uses (besides eat) in game for the following:

1. Dragonfruit

2. Golovanova fruit top

3. Strawberry

4. Watermelon

5. Cooking apple

6. Tomato

7. Onion

8. Cabbage

Every time I complete a farm run with these items, I just drop them. Why not add something that would make them usable? especially the dragonfruit, it feels like a waste to drop them.

Before you ask, yes the Golovanova fruit top is obtainable from fruit stalls in Kourend. Have tested this myself.

Community response

I have asked the community about this topic in chat with very few responses, some say "just grind the level 4head".

What these regular ironmen fail to understand is that with the lower exp rate game modes (such as classic, realism or EIM), "just getting the level" can be an excruciating task to complete.

Benefits more than just grind

I would also like to add this would benefit the future of achievement diaries, as a whole completing hard/elite tasks is very counter intuitive. By the time you have the correct level to complete certain tasks, the perk/item you receive has little or no value to you whatsoever (besides things like elite void or noted bar drops).

Summary

With summer pies already being coded into the game, it only makes sense the others come along with it.

This implementation would NOT be as useful for high exp game modes like Normies or Reg Irons, I understand this. Consider it more of a QOL for lower exp modes.

Unfortunately I started the grind before the collection log was released and its not 100% accurate but I cant believe I finally fucking finished it, it came so unexpected I was just afking rex while watching streams holy shit im so beyond happy right meow 

Would like to share this special achievement for yall

I went 1200+ dry for hitting the orb table and it happend to roll on the right one.

Unbelieveable.

Once again i wanna thank you guys with all my heart for all the love, for all the support and for helping us making this tribute happen, without you guys would not be possible

Hello everyone, and welcome to another edition of The Alora Times!

GPU & 117 HD Plugin Release, Trading Post QoL, Theatre of Blood fixes & more! - September 30th, 2021

If you want to check out the entire update list, click here.

There haven't been any changes to the rules this month, but feel free to look them over for a refresher. 

The Official Rules can be found here.

There hasn't been any changes since the last Newspaper.

For more info on Staff Updates, click here.

This month we will be interviewing 2 long time players, Extremedanny and Elsa.

 

 

Let's start off with Extremedanny

 

Lowkey: As a long time player, what keeps you playing Alora after all these years?

Extremedanny: Well Alora has always been on top of the game for keeping up to date with osrs most recent updates. Which means we always have exciting new content to try out. Also the community on here has to be the best of all rsps's. Especially for those who stay around, everyone knows everyone.

 

Lowkey: What has been your longest dry streak on a particular item?

Extremedanny: Pet wise that would be the abyssal orphan which took me 10443 sire kills ;-;

Item wise that probably has to be the twisted bow which its been about 2k kills since my last one if i combine my accounts kc's

 

Lowkey: What is something on Alora that could be improved?

Extremedanny: Would love to see some more rewards added to clue scrolls. Aswell as mimics and a new clue pet.

 

Lowkey: What is your favorite thing to do outside of Alora?

Extremedanny:I like to hang out with friends, go to the gym and I like to go on an hike and explore nature. Even though nature is kinda hard to find here so I usually do that when I travel.

 

Lowkey: If peanut butter wasn’t called peanut butter, what would it be called?

Extremedanny: Well, here in the Netherlands it is called ''Pindakaas''. Which means peanutcheese, so guess I will have to go with that.

 

 

 

 

Next up, Elsa!

 

Lowkey: As a long time player, what keeps you playing Alora after all these years?

Elsa: Oooh I'm not sure there's a specific reason anymore! I think I'm just really emotionally attached to the game nowadays haha

The people here are nice, the environment is nice, I think that's enough for me.

 

Lowkey: What is your most favorite activity to do on Alora and why?

Elsa: Right now I'm enjoying flipping alot! I used to do a lot of flipping on Habbo Hotel, but now that run is over and so I've moved that hobby over on to here haha.

 

Lowkey: Do you think Alora will around for another 5 years?

Elsa: I believe so! In my opinion, Alora honestly provides a better environment & experience for players than just about all multiplayer I've ever played! I believe that people will want to continue playing something that works really well, is steadily developed and fun. Dan, Chad & the staff team are doing a great job developing, moderating and maintaining this game. 

 

Lowkey: If there wasn't Alora, what game would you spend your free time playing?

Elsa: I probably wouldn't be playing any other games if I'm being honest. Alora is the only game I care about at the moment.

Truth be told, Runescape 3, OSRS and Habbo hotel are all rather unplayable and simply unfun nowadays. I've got no reason to play those anymore!

 

Lowkey: What mythical creature would improve the world most if it existed?

Elsa: Are there any Mythical creatures that would improve the world? I can't think of any!

Although if I had to choose something... I'd have to bend the rules a bit and say SCP-2000! It's more of a fictional "failsafe-mechanism" rather than a mythical creature It basically acts as a "reset switch" to humanity if we ever end up to nuking ourselves.

That concludes this month’s edition of the Alora Newspaper!

Hey all, just joined! In-game you can find me as jerbear, a realism account i plan to play without trading except for bonds if I can earn them. I'm a skiller, and have been playing RS since 2005, and RSPS's since 2011. 

Outside of RS I play ultimate frisbee and love to swim. I'm from the USA, living in Los Angeles.

I work as a Software Engineer for one of the top companies in the world, and love every second of it.

If you want to chat about pretty much anything I'll gladly discuss and learn! 

Look forward to getting to know some of you!

Summer Pie

Provides a +5 stat boost in the Agility skill. You have 60 seconds per level.

(Best way to obtain pies is through either Cerberus, Bree, Growlers, or Starlights.)

Spicy Stew (+5)

Note; Realism players only receive a +15% experience boost from this bonus.

Wilderness Bonus Experience

Once you have been above 25+ wilderness level for more than 2 minutes a +30% experience boost will activate and will deactivate once you leave the wilderness or go below 25 wilderness level.

God Event Bosses

Roughly every ~3 hours 3 bosses spawn at ;;event, you can receive a +30% experience boost per boss but they typically will all 3 be killed.

Shooting Star 

The first player to click on the shooting star once it's landed will receive a big chunk of free mining experience. 

The shooting star lands roughly every ~1-2 hours and can be checked through your POH in your Study room by looking through a Mahogany Telescope.

(For perspective a Normie gets ~200k mining experience when the Well of goodwill is active.)

Skill of the Day

Last but not least, don't forget to be checking the daily Skill of the day bonus because this is another +30% experience boost in that specific skill. 

You can find the monthly list of Skills of the day found here: https://www.alora.io...skill-schedule/

The current daily skill will show in your red quest tab in-game.

Also be on the look out for Weekday/Weekend events held by @Moe and @Ky for some awesome other activity boosts.

Hope this helps out some people!
