I Asked 15 Youtubers if Zombie Pirates are GOOD or NOT 

Video has been out for 9 minutes and it only has 157 views? Bro has fallen off

Bro is not beating the wilderness lure allegations hahahaha

please never base updates on the opinions of content creators

Enjoyed the video, thank you for reaching out for my input!

Ban the bots and leave the game alone there are just way too many big changes being proposed and meanwhile nothing is being done about these top page bots and are scattered threw every moneymaker

i have said this on a other video right after the update, always when they ad something big to the game they always add something new to the wildy to keep pkers happy. the same happened when konar slayer came out they had to add kristillia with the wildy chest keys. and being able to make good money with moons of peril or the coliseum was planned, but these zombie pirates where just added because and the worst and dumbest part is that they can drop a scroll or the chest can drop a anchoring teleporting scroll to stop teleporting from abyssal demons and those chaos monks, i think that scroll should be added to abyssal demons because their drop table can use a buff as they need a lvl 85 slayer req. so to give my final verdict jagex needs to stop putting in senseless updated for the wildy every time they bring out a big piece of content, but i say this the wildy boss rework was good.

I agree wildy content shouldnt give the most money in game. But maybe let ppl have x% more exp while training in the wilderness maybe that could help

Zombie Pirates just is Revenants 2.0

Great video! Thanks for the share

This is why bonds go up, to many alchables coming into the game.

the gp/h for endgame content is oly for 1% of the player who have end game gear and never die maintaining the raids/per hour mark the wiki suggest, but the other 99% of the players who still die at content or dont have BIS the wiki gp/h at the raids is far off(most people cant even complete 300invos with bofa). can count the people on my friend list on one hand that can complete 500 invos without dieing. some mods are just to disconnected from the community/reality and the game. i think at zombie pirates they just focussed so much on ''that the wildy needs to have something to compete with end game raids'' that they forgot they are only lvl 22 zombies at lvl 13 wilderness

Don't complain later when your economy goes down the hole.

I like the update. I didn't like the dragon weaponry in their table, but hey. At least we can speedrun low level ironman killers which is nice for pkers

can this become a series?

I do think I have solution... that no one would profit from and even like, but I believe would make the game much more fun for most. I can also be incredibly incorrect. But I would love to have year long experiment on fresh world with these mechanics and see what it would do to the market, player population and bots distribution. Maybe next league...? It solves the gold/value issue from opposite side. Make most of the gear untradable, leave just mid (and i mean really average) skilling supplies, cosmetics like recolours and under average gear tradable. If there's little to no incentive to buy stuff you then don't need huge money-making method neither huge gold sinks. At start the prices of resources and cosmetics would drop down a lot. A lot lot. But if there's no need for gold, there's no need to content just for the sake of income. Bots would drop like flies as gold value would be at all time low and not needed. It would also increase satisfaction from unique drops for player and items would again start to increase in prestige. The only issue here is PVP/Pking. But that could be solvable by introducing equipment debuf (like 5-15% decrease to stats, higher cost of special attack and so on) on anything equipment dropped by player. Those would be permanent and stackable until complete degradation. That would make such items unique in their own way and not totally kill incentive to PK. There's one huge counterpoint. If equipment wouldn't be tradable it would mean getting any gear for anything would take many many hours more. That would deter tons of players, mostly average people that have hour two day max to play - myself included. We would need to increase drop rates massively. No average player like myself would spend hundreds of hours just to gear up for late-game (not even speaking about end-game) content. From my own perspective as I'm most casual player you can find spending . I did reach max cmb (not fully maxed account, I really hate fletching and other power-clicking for hours) and participated in raids for last year, but it took me around 7 years just to get there and I have around 100 ingame hours - around hour daily on average. With how much time I have between work, family and other stuff, without huge increase to drop rates this would make the game unplayable for me and I believe many others would be in same boat.

Love your videos I need more *muah*

I have a lvl55 wirh 75 mage and use a trident + occult there. Yheres usually not pkers my level and i go for trip and trip with no interruptions

game changing for early ironmen alongside the hunter changes lol

You were not interrupted bc your a maxed acct lmao I get attacked alot and only carry a wep and food so I can save three pieces of loot if pked

I agree with Kaozbender's take. Jagex is in a constant balancing act, and they won't always hit the nail on the head right away. The community's feedback is valuable, but I think we can trust that Jagex will get it right at the end of the day.

i got that as a task during my wildy grind. holy shit there are SO many bots lol

Raw gold vs uniques. I suppose less uniques circulating is better, but more raw gold still devalues them. Raw gold in theory would spread throughout the economy as a whole, raising inflation across all kinds of buyables. There is probably no way of tracking this, but it would be interesting to know where & how the RWT gold gets spent. I'm not sure which is worse for the player base as a whole, but keeping unique prices at a premium seems like the best option for those most dedicated to the game. I do agree the pirates probably need nerfed a bit, but so far I'm okay with the update.

looks like im going to zombie pirates for the first time as 122 cb 2k total

Why not give these new drop tables a slayer requirement

Any good wildy farm is literally just an update for bots... most players dont have accounts built for wildy farms, and arnt interested in risk when bots are already dominating the space with their accounts specifically built for that farm.... idk, seems like maybe they should focus on other stuff but thats just my opinion. Glad the bots are getting rich though :/

5:24 so true. This was a bad addition to the game. Understand wanting to incentivize players to use the wildy, but it's just too much at too low a level. Same with the wildy course tbh, walking around with bulwark out nobody has tried to fight me in 10 hours

I have done zombie pirates on the iron I enjoy it but it's definitely way to much of a gp printer.

I’m a uim level 3 skiller but it seems like to much cash coming into the game but of course for Ironman it doesn’t matter

Why would zombie pirates be a problem but revs aren’t?

hot ass take. every "wilderness revival" style update, including zombie pirates, has been just flat bad for the game. they are always just alchable drops, theyre always way more gp/hr compared to anywhere else. theyre always overflowing with bots, because bots and botters dont care if they lose a few, compared to real players, who risk real time. they cause more inflation. period. and my hottest of takes. they could remove pvp from the wilderness entirely, leave it to specific areas and game modes. and the playerbase would lose... maybe 10k concurrent(REAL PLAYERS). obviously assuming we nerfed all of the drops from the previously discussed "revival" updates to take that into account. bottom line is, the wilderness is not, and will never be, what it was in 2007. its gone. the people playing this game now play it for different reasons than back then. and have different goals. even the jmods havent accepted that. but all these "high risk, high reward" wilderness updates do, is flood the game with drops from bot farms that dont care about dying once in a while. and real players still just dont want to deal with pvp.

The pk'rs camp the south bridge ya'll

easy fix more wildy bosses/ events maybe a king of the hill where the hill changes ever so many hours. or even rifts like in dmm.,

I have been stacking them up and barraging them, convinced its faster than cannon. its off tap.

"Bots are already in other places so adding even more inflationary content is fine" braindead take moment.

yea thats kinda fucked up but thank god raids are actually fun which makes them 100x more worth doing

This isn't that bad, is just a supply and demand thing. I used to play a main but GE just took the fun out of trading for me since I really liked the gameplay loop of "goin out" to do things like slayer tasks, quests, pvm, farm runs and then selling what I'd accumulated or buying what I needed while training bankstanding skills like crafting, herblore, fletching, etc. But the players voted to make the economy less social and more financial so I see no problems with something like zombie pirates for accelerating players to the midgame and helping them afford their bandos, armadyl, virtus and whathaveyou and I think with much more gp inflating the economy that actually adds scope for something like untradeable & degradeable gear accessible through npc shops locked behind medium difficulty quests like maybe something aimed at players with 41-80 defence or combat skills that could be purchased for a big upfront gp cost and repaired for hundreds of thousands. Whatever the methodology used, the challenge to balance with zombie pirates and other activities that inflate gp is to have more ways of deleting gp from the economy so adding items that are useful & convenient for main accounts at hefty upfront fees that can't be liquidated is the correct course of action. We've seen it with things like ge tax, the ability to purchase extra bank space, and more recent construction skill utilities requiring more marble, gold leaf & magic stones from stonemason npcs. Not everybody is going to deck out their poh and build a golden sink straight off the bat though so we just need more things for players to actually pay substantial prices for in shops that might not necessarily appeal as much to iron players like myself who most enjoy a long term planning playstyle. Like I think things like the pre-pot device should have been polled as a bank interface feature and hindsight 2020 most bank updates like gear loadouts, bank items, placeholders, item incinerator could of all comfortably come with a raw gp cost to unlock. I also think they could add a lot more cosmetic content that just straight up cost gp like more poh wallkits, npcs that can dye basic armors for a few mil, just anything that can add more fashionscape for people to spend their hard earned gp on that can put downward pressure on inflation. Maybe a shiny gold graceful outfit that uses a specular map or something that costs max cash to unlock. Just a variety of small things players can choose to invest in or aspire for that cannot be provided by other players; whilst a majority of mains do not bot a majority of bots are 'main accounts' Jagex is effectively a government responsible for managing the an economy, it requires a constant and multi-pronged approach to tackling inflation. Back in the day even though you could probably get a better deal on rune platelegs or a dscimmy by buying them from a player you'd sometimes have a hard time finding someone selling them or possibly even a dislike of the merchant playstyle and opt to buy a pair from an npc store as to not fund someone's business, I remember there were certain players I didn't like to trade with because I didn't like who they were as people and that was a fun part of p2p trading but as trading is now robotized so too has supply been automated by bots. There's nothing stopping a main acc going to ape atoll to buy his dscim, but Modern Tom does not want to go to ape atoll for his dscim nor does he want to look into the black and souless pixelated eyes of another player and put his hard earned gp directly into their dirty paws for a measly dscim, he wants it now so he can go pk some virgin losers with no friends that are probably unemployed or something.

High alch everything you get way more money 🤑💰

Great update!! I love it anti pking or pking there brings back pure pking!

being in the wilderness, there should be a logout timer

I don't agree with you : I learned both TOA and CG and I hated every single second of it. If they gave me a skilling method that was 1 or 2 M less per hour then CG or TOA I would be all over that shit no questions asked. This game is meant to be afked and super relaxing. Raids is the antithesis to what OSRs has always stood for.

As a “newer” players(I’ve played forever but only REALLY started playing in 2022) the barrier to entry for raiding feels like circular logic. You need a LOT of money saved up to start raiding. Unless you’re an extremely talented player, you’re gonna need 200m+ worth of gear to do solos of any raid. On top of the cost of gear, you’re gonna need about 100m in supplies. On top of the gear and supply costs you’re gonna need a ton of money saved up to pay for deaths. So imagine you spend a couple years building the gear and supplies and for example a 120m cash stack. You go start learning to raid and you’re really bad at first. How long can you pay 500k/death for? Oh and bonds are 12.5m btw so you got 2 weeks to learn the raid and get a drop that pays for everything or you’re basically back at square one.

it was a fantastic update, let people work for their drops it doesnt have to be insane drop chances, make methods that feel actually satisfying with real growth for the risk involved. when I realized that they are good profit, fun, risky, and actually genuinely rewarding, I was blown away that jagex finally gave us something like this. Not every good rewarding thing has to be a grueling miserable task. Fact is pirates are fun, rewarding, and easy. Rewarding for pker's and rewarding for the typical players also. Let things be fun, engaging, and rewarding. Literally nothing wrong with that. Ffs a grind should be satisfying at the end. Not feel like you are escaping from being kidnapped.

14:22 i didnt understand your point, "fix" to what problem? i dont think the game needs any fixes even in its current state

bots are ruining my gaming experience, also remove bh and bring back old wildy

Hannah coming in clutch again ❤ make woodcutting profitable again!

bring back bolas ranging snaring item

@7:00 sorry to tell you but bots have been in runescape since late 2001. Cmon do you seriously think people actually certed and uncerted Certs? Fatigued staker required bots. Then obviously skill and resource bots. Since 2001. When you really stop to think about it runescape currency was sold and bought just like any other virtual money and the Developers knew this. It was their main goal.

They added the tele block and everything for bot farming. Specific for us players to farm the bots for their loot because bots most definitely will try to do it. Think this is our time to shine and remove some bots

first

Delete this video, zombie pirates is funding my Ironman lol. It just paid for my 84 con grind

Delete this video 😢

if zombies wasnt in the wildy then it would be an issue. half of the osrs population are afraid of wildy and the other half that goes in are mostly bots and vennys. people rather pot non wildy for gp then wildy content

Bro, let us eat! I’m 8 items dry because rng is trash in this game. I need something I can came a quick buck. Ban the bots but let us eat.
