    Sneak preview/Thoughts. (skilling event)

    I'm limited on what i can and can't do, I can't throw down a farming patch for example, Due to it having 0 code behind it, It will just null. However not a bad suggestion to be honest with you.

    You do not have to throw down farming patches, my suggestion would be more of an extra boost on that specific skill like perks/well do (extra chance of items, extra exp etc.).
    So for example with the Farming skill;

    It could be set to run on saturday for 24hours to give all things that reward you farming exp to give 10% extra exp on top of it and 10% chance of double herbs, fruits etc. (this benefits everyone, espcially iron players for items).

    Same can be done with prayer > bones to give 10% extra exp on anything/burry > 10% chance of double bone drop (if you got the perk it would be more)

    Just an idea but it does require some pre-coding.

     

    Edit: With this you can skill across the whole world and doing that specific skill, having multiple skills running with a bonus on 1 day makes people spread a bit more and giving them a choice instead of having 1 skill on that day.

    Hey guys so i'm working on my traditional skilling-event, Had some thoughts on doing it differently, Here is what i have in mind.

    Monday: Mining and Smithing
    Tuesday: Thieving
    Wednesday : Woodcutting&Firemaking
    Thursday: The Hunt
    Friday-sat-sunday:Free-for-all (normal skilling event)

    Monday: Dark cave area: All ores and smithing objects.
    coords : Haunted Mine dungeon dark left (2785, 4516, 0)


    Tuesday: Thieves Guild: all/most non attackable npcs.
    coords: 4751, 5795, 0


    Wednesday: Enchanted Valley: all tress - Elder: Bonfires.
    coords : 3033, 4497, 0


    Thursday: Crash Island: Most non attackable Animals + skillchompas.
    coords : 2907, 2722, 0   

     

    Friday-Sunday: Dorgushuun City : Normal Skilling event objects.

    coords : 2704, 5349, 0

     

     

    I thought by doing it in a rotation it would be kind of fun having set skill days in different areas? Again this is just a rough draft and can/will be completely scrapped if noone likes the idea. Any feedback below would be much appreicated.

     

    Many thanks,

                           @Dynasty.

    What about;

    Monday: a focus on artisan skills; Crafting, Construction, Cooking and Firemaking

    Tuesday: a focus on supporting skills; Thieving & Agility

    Wednesday: a focus on on combatant skills; Prayer & Summoning

    Thursday: a focus on artisan skills; Fletching, Herblore, Runecrafting & Smithing

    Friday: a focus on supporting skills; Dungeoneering & Slayer

    Saturday: a focus on gatherer skills; Archaeology, Divination, Farming

    Sunday: a focus on gatherer skills; Fishing, Hunter, Mining & Woodcutting

     

    Could be done with; specific available skilling objects, or maybe 10% bonus experience and a 10% chance of double items in that specific skill?
    Example; 10% extra chance of smelting 2 ores at once, 10% chance of mining 2 ores at once, 10% chance of saving shards with summoning, 10% chance of double pickpocketing (all this on top of what is available ingame)

    Miscellaneous

    • Lots and lots of server improvement work. This relates from small object cleaning tasks for GC, to server game threads that handle everything. Velheim is growing, there's no doubt about it, so I'll be improving how the game runs on a daily basis now;

     

    This is actually really big in my eyes, serves you extra credits for thinking about this and actually doing this.
    Even small indy companies underestimated this before in the past (and big stonk companies still do).

    Probably the biggest guide I've seen so far on the forum, I really love this cause I started doing some Archeology and had some issues here and there with it.
    Thanks for releasing this guide, I will be using this for sure!

    A small one for the road..

     

    Telos

    • You will no longer be able to teleport out of the instance, unless in the lobby area;
    • Changed the chest item removal mechanic to match RuneScape: you'll loose item quantities based on your current kill-streak, capped at 75% (starts at 5%, +5% for every consecutive kill);

    Miscellaneous

    • Upgraded cache loading revision from 916 to 917 (RuneScape update from 22nd February, 2021 - https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/this-week-in-runescape-azzanadras-quest);
    • Music boxes and the Herb Burner will now get added back to player's inventory if they log out;
    • You can now right-click deposit all fish from any boat at the Deep Sea Fishing area;
    • Portable Crafters can now be used to convert red sandstone into robust glass and crystal-flecked sandstone into crystal glass;
    • The Superglass Make lunar's spell can now be used to convert red sandstone into robust glass and crystal-flecked sandstone into crystal glass;
    • Added 10 new Cosmetic outfit sets, along with a bunch of new weapon/shield overrides;

    Fixes

    • Hopefully fixed the visual issue of items not showing up correctly in some containers;
    • The Grand Exchange teleport scroll can now be used;
    • The Brooch of the Gods will no longer start new urns if your inventory is full;
    • Divination/Invention/Archaeology skill target goals can now be cleared, also fixed incorrect skill names when setting target levels/EXP;
    • Green Blubber jellyfish will now consume in 3 parts;
    • Slayer Dart spell can now be cast with Staff of Light, Staff of Darkness and Abyssal wand + Orb;
    • The 'Bag of Clues' item is now trade-able;
    • Corrected skill Bonus EXP removal.

    These are pretty big!

    Sorry. I'm kind lame and my cancer was not in my ass, and the misstatement was kinda  shitty. It was a really rare type and location (the diagnosis rate is like 1/2,000,000 and the actual location is another 1/254,000,00. My cancer also led to a brain injury, so that added to rarity by about 1/2,000,000ish. Those rates may be vastly understated and made up, but the rarity is very real. Also the whole thing is extremely complicated, so if you have other questions, PM me and I'll do my best to explain

     

    Also thanks for all the welcomes, and sorry if you message me and I ignore your message, I'm kind of oblivious.

    and also my OGN is also SwarlezDarn

    Holy smokes that sounds so unfortunate!

    Ooh, that's a tough one. I'm a big fan of bruisers/playmakers so Garrosh is a big favourite right now :lol:

    When it was rather new I played some Morales and a bunch of Raynor, I think my brother played a bunch of Stiches.
    I believe there was also a dual wield hero you could play with someone, forgot the name though.

    Welcome Swarlez!
    Question though.. so you had a rare 'ass' cancer? or rare-ass cancer? As in.. a rare type of cancer or a rare cancer in your ass? (was not sure to read that sentence but I got interested in it and also curious how you dealt with it)

    In-game name: Ahoy
    Why do you deserve to win?:
    I would finish up the last $22.5 to reach the diamond rank, everything that is left I would share with other players, giving them a perk they are missing.
    I rather share it with others as to keep it all for myself, especially since I got almost all of the perks and I personally have no real need to spend the rest on cosmetics, so sharing the left over $$ with other players feels the best.

    Personally I do not think I deserve it cause I took a break from the server to deal with some irl things, I am sure there are plenty of players who think they really deserve it with a good reason.

    Edit: Massive kudos to @Plug for the donation reward and @Yggdrasil for helping him with this give away. Keep it up lads!
