So as we all know we currently have the skilling race events, which are kinda cool I'll have to admit. It puts a fair competition which isn't skill based into the game where everyone has equal opportunity.

 

Though I have some suggestions for "grind type" events regarding skilling to start off with!

 

All These events will run with a set interval, perhaps something around 2 days inbetween events or something along those lines!

 

Mining Event!

 

Different crystals will spawn at a given location at random set times for 30 minutes.

 

These crystals will range from level 1-95 with different colors yielding low xp. In this case we will trade the xp for a dust which can be traded with a clerk selling Copper -> Adamant ores noted. 

 

The amount of dust yielded from each crystal will diffrentiate accordingly to the level of the crystal, with a set amount of dust per crystal to be extracted. 

 

The crystals will be active for 30 minutes or till all crystals are depleted, yet the npc and crystals will remain in place for another 30 minutes giving everyone a chance to trade with the clerk.

 

 

Farming/Herblore Event!

 

The herblore event will be a very simple event where players will have a chance a set % to yield double the herbs from patches while still remaining at the xp yield for just one. This event will be active for an hour and 20 minutes (80 minutes) meaning you'll have the time to squeeze in 3 runs with a chance of higher yield.

 

There will also be a fixed rate at 100% to mix potions at a 2x interval. Meaning the time to make potions will be halved.

 

 

Fishing Event!

 

The fishing event will spawn (set amount) of random fish ponds at a given location. This location being placed in the wilderness, due to the risk you're now taking to fish there will ofcourse be a reward.

 

At these ponds you will fish at a faster interval with a 33% chance to gain double catch, alongside a 65% to note the catch!

 

These ponds will rotate during the given day around the wilderness with a 2 hour interval. This meaning that the ponds will be active for 2 hours, then they'll  reset and respawn and another given locations 2 hours later. This will happend 3 times a day during the event day!

 

 

If you read all of this, thank you! Feel free to leave a suggestion of your own or tweeks to these suggestions!

Love the Fishing and Mining idea def my to favorites

[mochiii]

My imagination is giving me trouble about the mining/fishing event, but the Farming/herblore event sounds awesome, they all do actually.

 

 

So to clarify the mining event is a dust exchange for xp event?

[GIM Shruk]

@hc ashley Yes so the Mining event you trade xp for ores basically. Instead of getting alot of xp like you usually would from a skilling event you'd trade that part for minimal xp and instead get a set amount of "dust" or tokens that you then can trade for ores. These ores would not include runite ores.

So its sorta like motherload mine, but a dust as tokens and you get to buy a specific ore rather than getting a large random variety 

[GIM Shruk]

@hc ashley Yes, that is correct

[BuccScratchr]

I would love that Farming/Herblore event. I can get extra herbs!

[Kussler]

Some great ideas there. I like them all.

[GIM Shruk]

@BuccScratchr Yeah, extra herbs without it being broken due to chance and no extra xp

@Kussler Thank you kuss!

[High groupie]

[Sheep]

Sounds nice, could be altered if needed maybe.

[GIM Shruk]

@Sheep Yes definitely could! Feel free to suggest tweeks :)

[Fou]

[MT]

Would be awesome to see more kinds of events being implemented. Support.

[LAST RIDE]

Dont see why not, Support.

[J boogs]

Support, Would be awesome to get more variety in the events so they don't get dry! I actually like the idea of the random pond fishing such as going into wilderness to add a little more risk reward

[Patta]

Sounds good. Support.

[Tungus]

Yeah, I like the sounds of this. I'am always for incorporating new ideas to the game for sure! 

[EIM Crumpet]
