Ironman is all about 'Grind' .. Getting prims / bandos from a simple key is Fucked Up if you ask me.

 

 

Do you agree on my opinion?

Cast your vote above, Lets have this chest removed for ironmen!

 

 

PS: Blood keys should be available for ironman, just not useable. this way, if an ironman is no longer up for the ironman challenge, and wishes to convert his account, he'll have blood keys he can open for rewards still.

 

Be sure to give your personal opinion below, and like this topic if you agree!

I agree to the restriction. I don't think iron-man accounts should be receiving things like Bandos, Prims/Pegs/Eternals, and Arcane from the chest even if the rate is low. Supplies and what-not(anglers and other food/pots) are fine, in my opinion. 

 

The biggest thing that just bothers me is the chance of an Arcane spirit shield. I know the rate is low af, but its sort of an end-game item(achieving a spirit shield set on an iron-man should just come from corp, imo). 

[Iron fixal]

Yes please, please restrict us from it! Shouldn't be that easy to get bandos etc.

Supplies are fine imo, if they don't come in huge quantities

Seems about right to me, even though the chest is 99% terrible loot.

Thank you for your support,

Bandos Chest / Tassets - Primordials / Pegasians / Eternals - even a chance on the arcane spirit shield. which would be 3 corp drops are those which made me decide to make this topic

[Hot Pies]

100% agreed, it's meant to be a self sufficient mode of where you obtain items yourself

[Iron maxx]

Don't remove it 100%, just keep it for anglers brews etc is good I think. Not too OP tho. (like 100 brews)

Yoo, i agree!

Then again, I see how it takes away from the grind, but getting a blood key to begin with is somewhat difficult. Firstly its only obtainable through Revs or cystal monsters, but Revs is probably the most efficient way to go about it. Then its a .30-.12% chance of getting it there. Ontop of that, it announces when you open the chest, and you get skulled. This is the risk factor keeping it from being overpowered for ironmen.

Support, remove the unique items from this. I love how Alora is one of the only server you can not get uniques from random stuff. Even though the bloody key is hard to get and blood chest has 99% terrible loot like Savitr said. It still feels like its not a nice addition to the true feeling of ironman mode. I do think getting some supplies from it wouldn't hurt and would still be fine, just no uniques.

Reduced rewards. 

I'm fine with some skilling supplies. but hell no on the Rare Drops.

So we should also just disable the store and crystal chest? Those give out Rare Drops.

Comparing Ranger boots with bandos / arcane / pegs / etc. isnt something i'd like to debate about.

Ranger boots, Dragon boots, and Onyxs. Reguardless, the rate of actually getting those things from the Bloody key is (probably) lower than killing the boss that gives that specific item.

About the robin hood hat - rather common from clues.
About the Uncut onyx - 20 minutes of tzhaars can give you that.

About the runite ores - thats just a perk of the ckeys, we pretty much pay for it
About the dragon boots - 1:80 from spiritual mages.

 

Anything else?

All these drops can't be compared to end-game items. wym? lol

Though... if you feel this way, Make a topic about it, i'll be sure to give you a great opinion.

Didnt say anything about robin hoods or runite ores. Reguardless, have you even seen an IRONMAN get any of these drops, with screenies?

What drops? be specific.

[Cyrexie]

What drops? be specific.

The drops you noted as 'end game'. Let me state again what Sativr said "...the chest is 99% terrible loot." I mean really, if you were an ironman and u got a whip from that chest, you'd be ecstatic and wouldnt complain. Im sure devs thought long and hard about putting this update into place, and theres probably a good reason behind it. Besides, the item stays on an ironman account unless transfered, so it doesnt affect you directly.

You clearly miss the point.
You have a saying in the poll at the start of this topic, i’m no longer having this “discussion” with you.
You have stated your opinion, that would be enough.

Love the suggestion and I agree 100%.
