Mate you're glim if you think i flame anyone lol

With the combat system being the way that it is and the nerfs applied to weapons in the max str tourney the fights are very reliant on RNG, while leaving the special attack weapons alone the primary and secondary weapons used should have much higher accuracy to avoid the very apparent one sided plague of 0's, 1 ticking spec weapons is a pk SKILL and having a primary without a special attack bar takes away that ability from those that are able to take advantage of it. I also think that players should have a choice in a variety of inventory setups only in terms of food and potions. It also would make sense for flasks to be used in non f2p style tourneys. While f2p pking has always been RNG based and is to be expected, members pking implemented more accurate weapons, set effects/bonuses and special attack weapons so a fight's outcome was more reliant on a pker's ability to use combinations to stack damage to kill an opponent. Realistically the only reason that a fight should be close is because the players are close in pking ability and the only reason for a fight to be one sided should be because of the opposite, not because 1 players weapon hits constantly and the other players doesn't. With that being said this really only applies to two of the current available tourney's, F2p and max str. Hybridding is heavily reliant on skill and due to the same issue with melee accuracy, the DH tourney is moderately influenced to RNG but a skilled user is able to take advantage of the set effect to counteract it. I haven't played the no armor tourney yet but I imagine that the lack of defensive bonuses reduces the amount of 0's exponentially also reducing RNG's influence to a degree. Now with the above out of the way, I thought it would be cool to implement a gambling pool that players not participating in these tourney's can enter with a fixed amount of GP (E.G 50 bags). It would work by having a 10 minute cut off time for players joining the tourney then having a extra 5 minute period to allow pool participants to enter and select their favorite for the tourney. The next step would be to disable all but game chat for the players participating in the tourney in order to avoid rigging the pool/tourney. There then should be a fixed amount of selections on a tourney favorite to avoid a pool split that would net a loss. Why would there be a possibility to net a loss on the pool split you say? Well that brings me to my next addition, The pool should be taxed. Why? Well this could be a very effective way to counteract the influx of money being brought into the game by the tourneys of course. There should also have to be a certain amount pool participants to start the pool because any less than 2 participants would net a loss to the pool winner after the tax. Another precaution that should be made is to make it against the rules to be multi logged while participating in either the tourney or the pool to prevent (1 players hogging favorite selections and (2 players favoring themselves in the tourney. I've tried to think out the system as best as possible but I'm sure there are additions and tweaks that could be thought of by the devs that I didn't.

Uhm sheesh, kellatha take it easy. Anyway what I got from you stating it like this and that is that Ryan doesn't necessarily care about what the playerbase wants regarding this topic he'd prefer to leave it as is. Also that the suggestion and community polls category's are likely useless when It comes to the playerbase's opinion on controversial updates.

You actually voted to bring it back in my poll and +1'd it. The game being broken and pay to win is not a "belief" it's currently a fact. The more of this autokeep and extra item protection content that's in the game the more unbalanced and broken it gets. The only reason I proposed this is as an alternative. I know the process of making it spawnable again would be a pain but there need to be some balancing done.

I originally posted a Community Poll suggesting to bring Spawnable dh back to the server. I felt this was one of the most popular things that this Spawn/Eco server had and was the reason for the large player base back in the day. There was never a time that an abundance of people weren't pking at edge, no downtime at all. Though even with a fair amount of support it seems the thread just got buried. So I'd like to reintroduce the idea of free dh with an alternative option. I think there could be a way to put dh in the magic box to obtain an auto keep untradable version. I had two ways to go about this. One of those being a chance at individual pieces requiring (number) respective pieces per chance. My second thought was to create a cursed set obtainable either through the box or by using a cursed relic on (probably alot) of noted individual pieces. So this is just an alternative idea to consider, though if you'd like to support my original thread be my guest.

Topic needs a bump

Guess the topic needs a bump.

I don't think you realize, how much bigger Spawnpk was when DH was spawnable, and you're right they're lazy but again the name of the server is SPAWNpk and that is exactly what they want to do when they log in. You're ignorant if you are commenting about Dh bombers without reading through the thread, I don't know how many times that has to be stated. Edge was a clusterfuck then. There was maybe 100+ people in edge alone; just Pking, but at least it was never dead and never had a need for bots. Also Complaining about Dh being op? I assume you're talking from the perspective of somebody using unspawnable gear? Solutions simple really, pray melee, like...... duh? If you're not in unspawnable gear then you're likely going to be in Dh as well, so you have just as much potential as your opponent to hit just like them. I don't understand why you guys act like Dh is some sort of unstoppable force, it takes skill to pk very very well with it. Though at the same time it's probably the most fun to pk with because everyone aspire's to do so just like the RS Youtubers do. I don't understand how the opposing sides biggest point is that Dh is OP.... If you're fighting Dh in Dh, you're equally matched. If you're fighting in unspawnables against a Dh'er you likely have an advantage against them unless the said Dh'er is either very skilled or beyond lucky. If the "lucky" part is what you're worried about or even both parts it's really simple. Don't fight them. This brings me to another point. The people protecting 4, 5 or 6 unspawnables (depends on pet if any) are now forced to make a choice, risk the other players in unspawnables or fight the Dher's. This means it promotes risk fights and that's good for the economy. The biggest negatives of this server came after the loss of spawnable Dh. The Eco became madly unstable and pking died down very quickly. I suppose I'm growing tired of playing GamblePk....

Ah see it wouldn't bother me because I never put my computer to sleep, so I don't really have that expectation for mine lol. Though if you can buy a set of these and sell your corsair one's I definitely recommend.

You moved out? Then who's the kid at the dinner table every night? Also, I very much agree with you but this is also a rather new build for me and I held off on some things because my brother may be adopting the CPU, board and RAM. I planned to get the 1700x like you but I was short on funds at the time. Also I wanted to wait for more motherboard options to come out and see how other boards were fairing with Bios updates. As for the RAM I currently have 3000mhz frequency like I said, but Ryzen's Infinity Fabric benefits from faster memory speed increasing single core performance. I'm not sure on which frequency I will settle on but I'm definitely satisfied by these beautiful G.skill Trident Z RGB modules.

Well Considering I'm running a Ryzen 1600 build I like it. Seasonic is probably the best PSU brand considering that's the OEM that most other companies use, I'd like an EVGA 850 P2 The Samsung SSD's are outright OP you splurged on them mofo's Gigabyte is one of the more dependable mobo manufactures NZXT is a very good brand, that is a nice AIO cooler That EVGA 1080ti though, like gah damn my child hm is mom giving you for allowance might need to consult her about that. ehh RAM is RAM, my LED's are sexc'er tho My Build ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AMD Ryzen 1600 NZXT S340 white Senty 650W PSU(Generic POS) XFX R9 380X 2 NZXT 120mm fans/2 Corsair 120mm SP fans 1Tb WD 7200RPM HDD Corsiar H100i GTX - Got G.skill TridentZ RGB 3000mhz 16GB(8x2) MSI B350-Tomahawk

Yes but if Dh is spawn-able again A.K.A. free, it can't be allowed. People can't be able to just go out and bomb people risking stuff while they risk nothing.

That would also be why I just suggested you read through the thread more. The suggestion to make bombing illegal was tossed essentially because it would be irrelevant had the anti-Dh bombing mechanic been implemented again.

Was a suggestion for a solution to a possible problem, read through the thread more.

Slight grave dig at this point. Anti-Dh bombing mechanic could be implemented as previously stated and would the death of multi cc's really that bad? I'm sure i have plenty of video and screenies that show the toxicity they bring to the server.
