Forgot to post this yesterday but I joined the RuneScape Art Community Discord and did one of the Scapetober prompts because of it :D

fighting bosses in runescape is a really good way to test if you can do really complicated things like count to six. and find out the answer is no

so, i'm nearing the dragon rank threshold on leagues, definitely can get it within a couple more days, i'm just like, trying to figure out which remaining tasks are quickest/least annoying for me to do rn...

so I figured, Vorkath combat achievements, that should be an easy 200, only one i don't already have easily is The Walk, which i knew would take some practice... but Leagues is the best time to practice it and transfer that skill to the maingame, since last stand lets me try it and have a safety net from having to walk back and pay 100k every time i fuck up.

but it's uh... really fucking hard? and I know this is at least partly a Skill Issue in my own timing but the thing is. i'm having really bad tick quality which is definitely not helping. tick quality is something i didn't even know about until earlier this year and once I did (and found a tip from someone to solve many issues with ticks, specifically on mac computers) it helped a lotttt with learning CG and also other PVM. the tick tracker plugin, which typically shows 65-70% of "good ticks" on my computer by default, would go up to 90-95% when i used some of these dedicated workarounds to improve the quality.

but i'm not sure when or why it happened but that... stopped working? or became way less effective. I now am capping out at ~75% good ticks even with these workarounds active. and i have no clue why. Maybe leagues worlds act differently? maybe my ISP is just giving shittier service lately? but either way it's making it really fucking hard not only to GET this combat achievement, but also to even tell how much of the issue is my own timing, versus inconsistent ticks fucking me over :/

it's a bummer because this really is a good chance to practice it but the practice feels useless when it's unclear if the failures are actually me or not. and i have very little hope of getting the clear even once for the CA, with 25% bad ticks, because you need to be tick-perfect for 24 ticks to get this achievement. That is possibly (i am not a GM or even master CA person so may be wrong) the most stringent stretch of tick-perfect execution that is hard-required for any CA. i know you only have to do it once but i'm like damn, why do i not hear more people having issues with this one? is it really just my own skill being incapable of compensating for bad ticks? or do very few players have this issue with tick quality???

I think it would be really very cool if "The Dragon Slayer" was the player character's title after doing DS2 just like World Guardian is for RS3

[davidsunrise]

Damn boy are you vorkath cause I want pity head from you.

things i am really normal about: characters that make major splashes in one fork of runescape show up in the other fork

vorkath is in rs3 now :)

Normally when a Fremennik sees a dragon flying overhead, especially one as notable as the Vorkath of Ungael, one is tempted to panic. But for Olaf, gazing upon the sight brings a smile to his face and warms his heart knowing Rallis is on yet another adventure and paying a visit.
