Always a fun read. Nice job H. How do you determine who to interview?

Usually I just ask on yell if anyone would like to participate and most of the time I get a few messages from people.

Instructions unclear, stole my clan's bank and lost Tamber's hcim, need refund.

What is your suggestion?: Adjust the chance to upgrade emblems in inventory during Wilderness Slayer tasks.

Is this in OSRS?: No, I believe OSRS has moved emblems to new BH

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No, after searching this topic hasn't been accepted before

How would this benefit Alora?: This would make risking emblems during PVM more rewarding & bring more playersinto revitalizing the Wilderness.

As of the 7/27/2019 update, players killing NPC’s on a wilderness task with a combat level of 50 or higher will now have a small chance to upgrade the highest tier emblem in their inventory. 

• Players who have tier 10 emblems in their inventory will not lose it, but instead be granted an extra tier 8 emblem.
• The higher level the NPC, and the deeper the player is in the wilderness will both factor into the emblem upgrade rate.

This is a really cool mechanic, but after trying about 40+ wilderness tasks (easily over 2500 NPCs killed), my emblem has yet to upgrade even once. Items in the PKP shop aren't overpowered so the option to gain PKP through this method would make Wildy Slayer a much more appealing option, while also providing more chances for Pk'ers to hunt PvM'ers in this never ending game of cat and mouse. 

The risk vs reward at the moment is just not worth it, there's very little reason to risk an emblem for a chance of upgrade seeing how after 2.5k on task kills hasn't upgraded my emblem even once. Perhaps make emblem upgrade chances similar to that of Laran key drops (scales on HP/LvL, with heightened odds when you encounter superior monsters in the wildy) (but I think there's already another formula for the current emblem upgrade chance, so maybe it might be easier just to tweak that)

In conclusion, the current chance to upgrade emblems in invetory during Wilderness Slayer tasks seems absurdly low, increasing these odds will not only encourage people to risk bringing their higher tier emblems, but draw more player traffic towards the Wilderness which provides Pkers with more action as well. This mechanic is very unique and super awesome, but I wish it felt more impactful to players who chose to grind this content. 

A bit more on this topic:

With more PvM'ers due to wildy slayer being viable pkp/supply-wise, more people will be doing slayer in wilderness, which incentivizes newer/unskilled pkers to take to the Wild at a chance to kill PvM'ers for a bit of loot (99% of wildy pks are on people risking so little that you don't even get BH target kill credit). With more pkers (both lower skilled and skilled) preying on PvM'ers, the PvP population that enjoys fighting people who are capable of actually fighting back will have a much larger pool of potential targets, creating an enticing ecosystem of slaughter for all players to enjoy.

ATM wildy is only active by Edgeville ditch, and like every 8th wildy supply chest would lead to a brief fight, and similarly with Skotizo spawning. 

In fact, I feel like the BH shop is a bit outdated as Alora has become much more Ironman-centric since I've joined back in 2019. The ability to enchant your rings with PKP felt like a huge step in the right direction to incentivize wildy pking/skotizo farming, but the shop seemed to lag behind with that idea in mind.

I can't claim I know enough about the ironman life cycle to provide confident suggestions on what should be changed/added to the BH shop, but what I can say confidently is that the Wildy slayer emblem upgrade rebalancing+bh shop changes would bring a surge of player traffic to the wildy, and a great way of putting Alora on the map as not only the best Ironman-centric Rsps but also an amazing PvP rsps as well.

It's probably good to mention that Redcar's (rip not sure what he was banned for) suggestion for 4 dose sanfew serums and such to be added to BH shop would be very popular amongst ironmen. Perhaps add indirect supply items like seeds/seed packs/gem bags to help make BH shop more ironman friendly.

What do you call dc, what could be for players is their internet/server + could be the Alora server / or so small issues after or before the update for example so on what dc do u want to update + solo players could log out to start new raids so how then they leave the previous raids and start a new one when they get back in previous raid after login'?

 

 

I think that logging out should put you at the start of the raid (staging room). Just like if the player died in the raid, they spawn at the staging room and have to run all the way back. If the player wants to start a new raid, they can just leave and reenter the raid. 

Hello Fellow Alorians!

 

Background:

 

My name is Michael, but most of you will know me as "Blisziful / Fe Blisziful" in-game. I am 27 years old, and I reside in Ohio, United States with my partner Clayton who I have been with since April of 2020, as well as our two cats, Max & Reagan and our four ducks and three chickens. And yes, you read that right!

 

Recently, I left my position as a Dental Office Manager, and got re-hired as an Amazon Delivery Driver, and look forward to returning from a more active and physical job as working in an office for ten hours a day adding some unwanted weight to my body that I want to get rid of! 

 

In my free time, I enjoy spending time on Alora, I like to compete with my neighbors on who has the best lawn, I like to go shopping with my friends, and play cover songs on my flute. 

 

Gaming History:

 

I have always only played one game - RuneScape. I started my journey back in 2004 at the age of 7 when some of the boys in the neighborhood introduced me to the game. I was hooked instantly and have been an active member of the community in one way shape or form (through RS2, OSRS or Private Servers) since. This game helped me through a lot of difficult times growing up as a child. I did not have a big friend base, and would spend a lot of my free time on the game. Ever since, RuneScape has been a big part of my life - and I have met so many wonderful people from all around the world and made so many life-long friendships and memories with those people. 

 

As for Alora, I have been a member of this wonderful community since early August of 2024, and it is now my one and only home. I love Alora because it has a very diverse and active community as well as staff members that go above and beyond for that community. I see myself being apart of this community for as long as the server remains alive and thriving. 

 

Play Style:

 

I currently have two main accounts that I play on Alora:

• Blisziful - Classic Mode (X5): My first Alora account. I picked the Classic Mode because I wanted something that wouldn't be too slow, but would still have a grind and offer satisfaction and rewarding feelings. 
• Fe Blisziful (Soon GIM Blisz) - Solo Group Ironman (X6): My second Alora account. I have always struggled with the "normie" life. I feel that it really takes away from really learning about RuneScape and it's mechanics. There is so much lore and content and problem solving involved. Along with the true grind and randomness of drops, this is a major focus aside from my Classic account. 

I plan on creating three more accounts in the future while on Alora:

• Skill Blisz - Normal Mode (X325)
• Fe Blisziful - Regular Ironman (X40)
• HC Blisz - Hardcore Ironman (X8)
• Elite Blisz - Elite Ironman (X4)
• Real Blisz - Realism Mode (X2) 

Stay tuned for my future Goals & Achievements Threads! 

 

Community Envolvement:

 

I currently try to be as active as possible helping out in the Alora Help Clan Chat on "Fe Blisziful," and you may see me in there from time to time. I am also a member of the "ICE Clan" on my main account (Blisziful). My private messages are always open if you have any questions or just need a friend or someone to talk to! Also, I have recently submitted my application for Server Support so we will see how that plays out in the near future! I go above and beyond to create a positive and welcoming and inclusive environment for all and always go above and beyond to be a team player and friend to anyone in the community! 

 

Goals & Aspirations:

 

Blisziful - Classic Mode:

• Currently working on 99 in Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged, Hitpoints and Slayer.
• Next, I will be gaining 99 in any non-combats stats that are not already 99.
• After that I will be working on finishing up any uncompleted achievement diaries, quests, combat tasks,  and finally the collection log. 

Fe Blisziful - Solo Group Ironman: 

• Currently I am completing all non-combat stats first to set up my account for success when it comes to combat and other gear grinds. 
• Next, I will be obtaining 99 magic, ranged, and prayer staying as low combat as possible to work wilderness tasks with a lesser risk of getting killed.
• After that I will be working on 99 in all combat stats as well as Slayer.
• Fianlly, I will finish any uncompleted achievement diaries, quests, combat tasks, and finally the collection log.

The next account builds after that will be as follows (in order):

1. Real Blisz - X2 Realism Mod
2. Fe Blisziful - X40 Ironman Mode
3. Elite Blisz - X4 Elite Ironman Mode
4. HC Blisz - X8 Hardcore Ironman Mode
5. Skill Blisz - X325 Normal Mode

Closing Remarks:

 

Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a bit about me! If you have any questions or want to chat - just shoot me a message! I look forward to being apart of such a great community of players :) 

 

Sincerely, 

Blisziful 

We're at the 2 month mark of this accounts creating and figured I'd share my progress.

 

This is my 100% solo gim account, no item buying allowed

 

 

 

Account Statistics

So far I've managed to unlock hard tiers on the combat achievements and closing in on 1b total xp

 

 

Skills

So far I've managed to get all 99's

notable skills:200m wcing, 150m thieving, 130m farming, and 55m agility

 

 

Gear Progress

I've managed to get most of the early pvm gear out of the way, currently working towards a twisted bow (110 cox kc), then I'll make a push for torva and shadow/scythe

 

Note worthy achievements for me are my quiver and inferno cape, both done early without mega rare raid weapons

 

 

Skilling tab

My skilling tab is special to me because I'm going to be working towards all skilling outfits, all graceful recolors, and 4.6b total xp, so the more I can get the better

 

Current Goals

 

•Completionist cape: still need 200m thieving, farming, and 4 achievement diaries

 

•Twisted Bow: Who knows how long this goal will take, but I'll make it happen

 

•Skilling outfits: Want to finish spirit angler, the rods, fish sack, and carpenters outfit first

 

•PvM Drops: I still need to grind a thread of elidinis, lightbearer, Ancestral hat, pegasian crystal, gauntlet items, wilderness weapons, acb, and eventually masori/armadyl

 

•Skilling Goals: I'd like to focus first on the 200m's for comp, then work towards 200m fishing, cooking, agility, mining, fletching, and construction. I feel these will be the easiest 200m's to get done sooner than later

 

•Clog and CA's: On my next update thread I'd like to think I can get Master combat achievements completed, and at least 500 collection logs done as well

See? He doesn't only just get cleaned and lose eco!

What is your suggestion?:

Increase friends list cap from 400

 

Is this in OSRS?:

The OSRS clan system is different from Alora

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: 

Sort of? It was noted by Omicron on gim crohn's thread that it was changed, but it never was actually changed.
