#478739 Alora Leagues

Posted by Jerbear on 03 February 2024 - 03:20 PM

Pretty new to the politics of the server, but is there any means by which the dev team can be expanded? Often times smaller QoL changes and bug fixes are an easy way to introduce a new developer to a tech stack, so they could help improve things for the players while Omi et al. focus on more complex content




#477289 Track Rewards Pools

Posted by Jerbear on 15 January 2024 - 01:02 PM

What is your suggestion?:
Currently, at several minigames and bosses, only the total number of completions is shown to players, not the number of rewards earned. As players can earn differing numbers of rewards per game, it's not as clear the effort for a reward.

For these places where the quantity of rewards is not in constant scale with the completions, let's add an additional metric to screens like the collection log to show the number of rewards claimed.

List of places to implement this (this is just where I've seen this could exist. If I've missed any please comment below, I'll edit the list to include!):
- Wintertodt
- Tempoross
- Guardians of the Rift

- Giants' Foundry


Is this in OSRS?:
No idea. Can't find a clear indication one way or another.


Has this suggestion been accepted already?:
Not that I could find with a quick search of the Accepted suggestions


How would this benefit Alora?:
Players can see a more accurate picture of the effort put in to achieve awards




#474994 Skill of the Day: Rework [2/2]

Posted by Jerbear on 17 December 2023 - 11:39 PM

To clarify, I would remove the second rotation of Str, Def, (ect) and replace them with skills such as Herblore (we would have 2 Herblore SotD) :) 

Let me know if this clarifies!

Got it! Yeah I interpreted the original as suggesting to remove those, something about saying "Some skills I would suggest we replace would be..." sounds like you're suggesting to replace those, not replace others with those. Thanks for clarifying.

 

That in mind, pretty on board with this! I do think that the combat skill of the day days are kinda a wash. Most people will kill shit on any day!




#474988 Skill of the Day: Rework [2/2]

Posted by Jerbear on 17 December 2023 - 11:17 PM

To make sure I'm understanding correctly, are you suggesting that the skills you've listed would no longer be part of the skill of the day rotation? Feels like many of those (Herblore, Runecrafting, Crafting, Fletching, Smithing) are ones that are a benefit to have bonus experience for. I'd rather see things like the combats dropped from the rotation, like the combats, as people will train those regardless

 

Better put — on a 31-day month, what is your proposed schedule?




#463232 Show remaining time left on boosts

Posted by Jerbear on 02 July 2023 - 08:06 PM

What is your suggestion?:
Show how long bonuses remain active on the View Boosts screen. For things like a minigame boosts, bonus XP, etc., show when that will end (X days, Y hours and Z minutes left)

Is this in OSRS?:
Nope, but then again neither are boosts afaik

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:
Not that I could find

How would this benefit Alora?:
Lets users know how much longer they have to take advantage of the benefits. Means we can easily determine if we should start games or kills, use scroll boosts, etc.




#460382 Add Gold Tiara with Catalytic and Elemental variations

Posted by Jerbear on 20 May 2023 - 06:22 PM

What is your suggestion?:

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Gold_tiara

there's a gold version of tiaras that is able to be made on OSRS. When this exists it can be combined with elemental and catalytic talismans to make their respective tiara versions. 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Not that I have seen

How would this benefit Alora?:

Keeps us in parity with OSRS, easy to add (behavior mirrors that of regular tiaras), and it's pretty.




#456729 Say how much more is needed to fill well on yell

Posted by Jerbear on 30 March 2023 - 01:38 PM

What is your suggestion?:

When someone adds money to the well it tells you precisely how much was added. It would be nice to know how much more is needed to hit the goal.

Is this in OSRS?:

No, but neither is the well

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

On a search in the suggestions section, it was not turned up

How would this benefit Alora?:

Players would be more likely to donate if they see it is close to being full. Money sink go vroom

#449743 New Command - ;;knownbugs

Posted by Jerbear on 02 January 2023 - 01:09 PM

What is your suggestion?:
Add a new command, ::knownbugs, that brings up a moderator-curated list of known issues that the game is facing now that are regressions from previous experience.

Only things confirmed by the staff to be a regression would be added, and when the issue was resolved in a future update (or after intervention from the staff), it would be removed.

This is not be a replacement to reporting a bug properly on the forums to make sure the developers can see it, but just informative for the players themselves about how their play may be impacted.

Could make use of the same interface as ;;staff or the farmer's blessing teleports.
 
Is this in OSRS?:
No, but this would be unique to Alora; nothing from OSRS would impact it.
 
Has this suggestion been accepted already?:
Not that I found when searching through the Suggestions section
 
How would this benefit Alora?:
Players could quickly identify if the issue they are facing is more widely impacting others too, without a need for moderators to be contacted beyond the initial report/confirmation of the issue.




#447748 Remove Bot Checks from Spade Digs

Posted by Jerbear on 11 December 2022 - 01:50 PM

What is your suggestion?:

Remove the bot check (questions like "What is the server's name?") from digging with spades.

Is this in OSRS?:

No, but neither are these bot checks.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Not that I could find

How would this benefit Alora?:

Currently, players can be at risk of dying due to this. If you are under attack but digging (say for a clue) the check will occur, and the monster will continue to hit you

#436654 Add ability to obtain Toad's Legs from Toads

Posted by Jerbear on 27 July 2022 - 08:42 AM

What is your suggestion?: 

In OSRS, you can obtain toad's legs, the herblore secondary for agility potions, by removing the legs from toads found in Gnome Stronghold and by Taverley. I cannot speak for other game modes, but at least on Realism this secondary is not available in Kaqemeex's shop.

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes. See: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Swamp_toad_(item)

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Not that I could find

How would this benefit Alora?:

Gives expected feature parity with OSRS, and unblocks early level herblore requiring 75 thieving to obtain the item (haven't confirmed gnomes give on pickpocket, but they are expected to)




#428285 Update Menu Entry Swapper Plugin

Posted by Jerbear on 10 April 2022 - 02:04 PM

What is your suggestion?: 

The menu entry swapper plugin for the runelite client is severely out of date. There are major QoL updates that have been made that we're missing, including the bank deposit/withdraw shift-click options. These are a huge QoL that allows you to utilize your keyboard to swap between your default option (as set with the buttons on the screen) and another option. For reference, the change that introduced those was merged more than 2 years ago, in January of 2020, per this GH issue.

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Per the above link, yes this is publicly available and has been for more than 2 years.

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Not from what I have seen on the accepted suggestions page.

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

Huge QoL for players, and a more consistent experience with what new players would expect from their RL client when arriving from OSRS

#418267 Enable Runecrafting Altar Exit Portals

Posted by Jerbear on 05 December 2021 - 11:30 PM

 @Jerbear,

 

                Rcing has been from the dark mage since the beginning, and changing it now wouldn't be fair to players since it would reduce the xp/hr greatly. Also the areas you would reach upon leaving the altars already have teleports fairly close to it. 

 

No Support

You've misunderstood my suggestion. I am not suggesting the dark mage be removed in any way shape or form. It's immensely valuable and I love the benefit of it. This is exactly why RSPS's are so much more enjoyable.

 

The suggestion is purely for enabling players to choose to exit/enter if they so wish. They would still have as much ability to train as they currently do.

 

Some may have nearby teleports, but others I disagree with that being the case. For example: 

1. Air altar acts as a fast teleport to the southern entrance to Falador, or to port sarim. 

2. Earth altar will get you close to the lumberyard, and to the limestone quarry immediately east of it.

3. Fire altar will give you a faster access to the al kharid mine

4. Law altar will unlock the island of entrana

 

I can go on, but I think my point is well made that adding these unlocks cool new content and faster access to certain areas.
