Posted by No Bank Mate on 08 March 2021 - 07:38 PM

It's been a long time since I've revisited Alora. Not too much progress this week of playtime.

#391037 Polling Accuracy and Revenants Revert

Posted by Omicron on 03 March 2021 - 07:06 PM

Why would something like this not be polled in the first place though? This completely changed the meta and the game as a whole. So I am not entitled to make a poll to allow people to voice their opinions, even though I am in Aftermath people will vote no solely based on that. Even on OSRS they polled weapon nerfs, rev changes etc .. Just my two cents. 

The reason we didn't poll these changes is because Alora is primarily a PvM server. That's the content we primarily try to replicate, and it's what we're best at, so we decided we should at least have a combat system that does it justice. Dan and I discussed it before even starting to make these changes, and we decided that players shouldn't be destroying bosses like Kalphite Queen with a dragon scimitar. The goal with this system was not to shake things up and make the game much more difficult, it was to properly replicate the combat system from the original game, and to give many different weapons an individual use case. The previous system heavily devalued end-game gear and weapons (although I'm not sure many people realized the extent of this, even I didn't myself until looking into it more) in terms of accuracy. We knew that there would be people who loved the changes, and those that hated them, and we knew that the system would need to be tweaked (and still does), but overall that it would be the best move to make for Alora. We're still willing to make tweaks for accuracy boosts, since we don't want it to feel like most hits are not landing, but we certainly do want players to be required to use the proper weapon types that a boss is weak against, and to add more balance to the system rather than just letting a blowpipe or dragon scimitar plow through every boss. We don’t poll updates that bring us closer to OSRS, only ones that stray away from emulating the original game.

#390871 PVM Accuracy Rework Discussion

Posted by Omicron on 02 March 2021 - 02:11 PM

We had a look at Twisted bow accuracy again, and we did find a bug causing the accuracy to be lower than intended (not damage though). We’re working on getting this accuracy to match the OSRS calculators 1:1 and then we will push a fix. As for other bosses such as Venenatis/Callisto, those are super tanky bosses that are meant to be difficult to hit. Even the OSRS strategy guide says that your best bet for Venenatis is to us either Ruby bolts (because other ranged attacks won’t hit) or Verac if meleeing.

After matching OSRS’s accuracy system (aside from Twisted bow and a few bosses/forms that have incorrect stats), we also apply a boost to the final accuracy because it is an RSPS and players want to feel like they’re hitting more often, which we understand. We currently set that boost at 20% and for most bosses and monsters, it seems fine, but that number could be adjusted.

I know that hitting every single time is a nice feeling, but I’m hoping that we can find a middle ground where we stay true to the mechanics of OSRS (requiring you to plan out your gear depending on what you’re fighting against), while also providing a slightly enhanced/easier experience that you’d expect from an RSPS.

We’ll be fixing the Twisted bow in a reboot tonight to make it as accurate as it should be, and we’ll continue to look into the stats on different bosses and make sure they all match up. If that doesn’t cut it, we can look at increasing that 20% boost if it’s what the community wants, or we can potentially nerf a few problematic bosses (Venenatis is unnecessarily tanky imo). Either way, we’ll figure it out and find something that we’re all comfortable with.

This is a bug, and should not be in this section of the forums. Nevertheless, the bug has been fixed for the next update.
