you are an absolute gem, everyone thank this person for doing gods work!!!!  

@Dialect  thank you, that helps me decide on a few things. do you happen to have a link to that yt video? and was it on alora, since there is obviously some areas not coded in the same as osrs.

I think i will do the tile cost per boss, and training teleports as they both can make me progress very fast so have to make some kind of sacrifice. 

the worst part about end game goal is I really dont know what would be worth it, i'm thinking ill do an eim so xp is as slow as it can be without the toxic osrs rates of realism. I have never done inferno on osrs, or my eim yet but planning to eventually try since it seems super hard and I like challenges. I'm wondering if maybe saying I do TOB as my end goal instead would be harder since I would need some kind of gear and stats. not to mention that I have only done TOB on leagues 2 and twice on alora where i was carried haha. 

thank you nonetheless for the ideas, I'm planning to start it soon as it's something i can kinda afk on the side while playing my main 

@More glory truthfully, I have always wanted to do an extreme 1 chunk like verf does as the afking doesn't bother me, but considering making content isn't my job its a LOT longer grind then i could do. but yes I will 100% be recording the whole thing, may even do a little bit of streaming if it shows some interest as I used to stream so i have all the gear for it. May have to make another account for it though since im unsure if it can get me banned to stream 

Hi everyone, 

So I have been grinding my EIM for quite some time and it's not that I'm getting bored of it, just going a bit insane looking for the tbow and need something to do when i take breaks thats osrs related haha. But there has been an account I have ALWAYS wanted to do, and alora never had the plugin until recently. 

I want to make a Tileman account on alora, and I will plan on recording it as well to turn into a series if it shows enough interest. But before I start this journey I wanted people to throw out some suggestions to me since an OSRS tileman differs greatly from an alora tileman. So here are some questions I have for the community to help me out with:

What gamemode should I do? I have never played an UIM once, and to be truthful it seems painful to enjoy. But too everyone else, does that seem like the only way to play a tileman in your opinion? if not what are some other recommendations/restrictions should I put in place if I were to play a different ironman status? 

What do you think should be my starting area? Most tileman start in Lumbridge, but I feel like I should do something unique but at the same time also being possible to move on from. So was wondering if anyone else had an idea on starting locations that are physically possible to escape from with 1 tile to start, and with no items (assuming we drop all the starting equipment?) 

One of the biggest questions on my mind, should I be allowed to have access to teleport wizard right away or have some kind of restriction that requires me to unlock it? (such as total level, total tiles, etc..) As this would make progression quite easier, I am unsure how to approach this feature. on one hand; it allows me to do a lot more in the game since there is only so many possible tiles to unlock in the game. on the other hand; it creates a much easier way to get around the game ALTHOUGH there is certain areas that are not coded into the game to be accessed without using the teleport wizard. What do you think? 

And lastly, what should my end goal be for the account? being that it is alora and not OSRS there is many ideas to consider for an end of account goal, and I am unsure what one would be the most entertaining to go for. 

Thank you all for any suggestions, help, and support you all give and I hope I can create some fun content for the alora community in the near future.

@Real cream  That is good to hear, and I appreciate the support!! I am more so going on personal experience and what others told me when I say the sounds and animations made the WORLD of a difference for me when learning gauntlet. I never had to look away from my prayers/inventory as I could hear the animation take place when I had to switch prayers, and obviously you can hear every time you make a hit so you know when to switch attack styles. maybe I just have terrible reaction time haha. I have noticed by now after many more runs later, that the frame drop is more a bug then anything. I've had more runs then not now where I get the frame before I head to a demi-boss. but can still happen which sucks. 

And I really do hope these can be added, I understand coding animations is not as easy so that is why I kept my list to minor QOL things that I know helped me with gauntlet to help others better understand, enjoy and complete gauntlet! 

Hey y'all, 

coming back to Alora after a year or so has been an absolute blast. One of the big things that pulled me back was seeing that gauntlet had been added, as this was my favourite pastime whilst playing trailblazers league. But after finally getting my EIM leveled up to finally make it here I noticed a few things within gauntlet that I had been wondering if they were being changed/added in the future.

What is your suggestion?:

Adding the sound effects for the Hunleff switching attack styles/prayer dropping attack. (Along with the animations of it doing so, if that is even possible) 

Adding the gauntlet soundtrack, this made my gauntlet experience much more enjoyable and i'm sure others who love the soundtracks in-game would like this as well.

Make weapon frame drop guaranteed once from first medium level creature kill, had few runs where I had killed over 10 medium levels and low levels to no weapon frame drop which caused me to reset my run. 

Hunleff starting the fight with it's range attack style, not magic.

Not sure if this is just a bug, but Hunleff does not always switch prayers after 6 attacks from the player.

Is this in OSRS?:

yes, all features within the current gauntlet

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

No, I could not find any post within the forums already suggesting these changes.

How would this benefit Alora?:

This would benefit Alora for any newcomers, or gauntlet enthusiast in bringing more activity to the gauntlet. I still enjoy doing gauntlet runs, but without these suggested changes it could make gauntlet very frustrating for newcomers and deter them from ever trying it. My duo partner has always wanted to try Gauntlet and wants me to teach him, but these few things have thrown a curveball at my knowledge of gauntlet and it would be great to see some more love be thrown into making gauntlet even better on Alora.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!
