Varlamore NEEDS Some Work... (OSRS)

After doing the Huey guide, I realized that there is just so much wrong with the boss and the herb minigame, the whole update really.
The loot is trash even for mid level players, the Dragon Hunter Wand is not good at Olm, it's worse than Trident and you can't run the head with it. Huey isn't even weak to magic so its useless there.
The herb seeds are rare and the boss fight is...the biggest disappointment for people to learn PVM ever. This update was a waste of dev time and feels rushed through to fit a spot in the Summer Summit.
The herb minigame is a joke, even for ironmen. Terrible exp rates and loot rewards that take 15+ hours to get. This was not what Varlamore Part 2 was supposed to be. Where is Endless Colosseum? Where is the fight up a mountain that teaches players about prayers? Gear swaps? Anything other than standing there afk hitting the boss in a mass?
If you haven't tried the boss out yourself, I really don't recommend wasting your time. Go to Scurrius or Moons. This is a waste of time.

The NEW BIS Dragon Hunter Wand btw: gearscape.net/calculators/dps?preset=5e97ff06f8 Nice dead content! Can't run head with this because its 5t and its trash! Who would have thought!

@krumbledumble5760 12 часов назад

It sucks that the people these drops are designed for aren't ever going to dps calc anything (and clearly jagex isn't going to either). 10s of thousands of low levels are voting yes to items like dragon hunter wand because they sound cool, and time and time again they drown out the players who actually calc these things and realize that the items are completely worthless.

After 20 minutes, the herblore minigame is completely possible without a plugin. Obviously it will make it easier with a plugin, but that's the only point I'll refute. Key points they must address: - Rewards should be cheaper - collecting the herb in the corner should be a bigger bonus in points/xp (currently it doubles the points/xp you get but is only ~5 times per hour and only lasts a few seconds) - arbitrary herblore reqs of 82+ for a 60 herblore minigame is stupid. You shouldn't have to do the minigame for over 20 levels in order to begin to earn red points to purchase rewards. - potion packs need to give 5-10x more potions, currently its 20mins for a small amount of potions - I'm happy with the xp/hr and xp/herb as it currently stands, but you shouldn't need to be here for 2m herblore xp over 30 hours to get the useful rewards. - aldarium should sell in bunches of 10 for the same cost (or 100 for 10x the price) so you aren't getting 5-10 prayer renewal potion secondaries per hour

so true, or they need to change the ratios of points needed so you need the least red points, since red points are the hardest to acquire without those lvl 80/84/86 recipes. As it stands currently you need the most red points, followed by blue and green, which just feels backwards considering im getting over 2-1 ratio of blue to red points at lvl 69 herblore, making it so I will end up with thousands of spare blue and green points before I get the needed red points.

I like the idea or concept of Huey but this was shit. We waited this long for this? Really? The mechanics are way to wash the fight lasts barely a minute it could have been made for the fight to last 3-5 minutes and much more mechanics. Just felt to simple. Jagex seems to be doing the least amount of work to be lazy and no effort for the highest return. It feels like they put no real time into any of this. The agility course is shit and the new herblore mini game compares to gotr or wintertodt is also shit. I feel like they rushed and lowest effort possible cheapest developement as possible. More COVID price gouging how can we fix up this old car but sell it for 5x what it’s worth. That’s what jagex is doing to all new content and I’m tired of it.

@IamMrSimQn 16 часов назад

IMO i would guess a lot of the huey fight got scaled down during development, which is typically normal but in this case there's barley anything left. They presented the concept along the line of "fighting the dragon as you scale the mountain until your face off at its top". But this this case it's just 1 damn floor before you fight the damn thing. They need to add atleast 2 more floors and add some mage/range phases aswell to encourage style switching. This would place the content in a comfortable spot over perilous moons with introduction of low risk gear switching. Moons could teach you to basic movement and huey can teach you to swap gear. Also side note, do you really need a plugin for giants foundry? It's all very visible on the interface if you even care to look. Don't be a runelite blue-box-plugin Andy.

@ozzy.8413 7 часов назад

I noticed this a lot lately with Jagex and their blog posts, specifically when it comes to varlamore. They say they are going to do all these grand things, like with colosseum they said they would have the floors change and all this stuff, but it never happened. The Huey they said you would scale a mountain. As you pointed out, it’s one little cliff where you attack three holes and then you go up to fight Huey. Clearly rushed and they did not have the time, energy, or motivation to make that boss encounter special. It really, tbh, looks like some unfinished, beta testing private server shit. This shit is bad.

@krumbledumble5760 12 часов назад

Jagex's philosophy for adding early-mid game pvm makes no sense. They keep talking about getting new players into pvm and introducing them to mechanics, then they make every boss have the same mechanics. Huey teaches you to move away from slowly appearing ground tiles and pray against a projectile. Scurrius is the exact same mechanics. Moons are the same thing but without the prayer switches. Amoxliatl is moving away from marked tiles and hitting the boss. Not one of these bosses teaches new players anything different than the others. Demonic gorillas are still the best intro to pvm mechanics in the game over 8 years later. We just have this horribly bloated mid game full of bosses that feel identical to each other. I get that as end game players we will incorporate things like figuring out tick perfect wave skips, prefire cbow on head, gear switches for slight dps increases, etc., but new players are never going to do that. If you want new players to use two styles, you have to make it abundantly clear to them. Make the tail weak to mage like you said, make the head change colors to indicate either a melee or ranged weakness at different times, make the wave mechanic not something you skip over, but something you prevent by doing something else properly.

@TacetTheTerror 6 часов назад

Personally love the new herblore minigame as possibly the best piece of skilling content ever added to the game. It is one of a few skilling methods that is actually skill based. Think a lot of people's negativity to it is mostly from not giving it a long enough shot as the speed at which the minigame can be done with 0 plugins drastically increases compared to hour 1, hour 5, hour 10, and so forth. By around 10+ hours it is possible to nearly tick perfect the minigame at exp rates per effective hour higher than any option currently possible on an ironman as it is generating roughly 30k-40k extra herblore exp per hour in just excess free exp compared to supplies used with a total around 75k or so. In comparison, an average max farming farm run on an ironman comes out to about 17.5k exp per hour and still requires gathering secondaries.

@DaemonRayge 7 часов назад

Small hack for the herblore minigame before they have plugins. The combinations are hinted by how you can abbreviate their names. For example, Mighty-Mammoth Mix can be shortened to MMM or Mox-Mox-Mox. Megalite Liquid can be shortened to MLL or Mox-Lye-Lye. The stations do become self-explanatory after a couple of rounds. Although I do have to agree with you with a better indicators for the bonus speedup timing or a slightly more generous window. I know the pump is click again after 4 and time it with the 5th. I have no clue for the agitator TBH. Cauldron is pretty braindead since you can just spam click.

The names of the potions align to the ingredients required for them (mammoth might mix - MMM) and the indictaor for the 3 potion options aligns with the shape of the tool used, in my opinion that part of the minigame is PERFECT, and should be exactly the type of thing they do with every part of the game so that we don't need to big ugly blinking plugins. Even if they come out with a plugin fo rthis minigame i won't use it, because it's perfect as is. That being said the gameplay loop and rewards values are horrible and need to be fixed asap.

@DoctorSockrates 13 часов назад

The Huey tail waves, eugh. I've managed to start dodging it more frequently, but unless they got more in the chamber when it comes to this kind of movement challenge, I'm in agreement that this just comes out of left field. Ironically, because I'm only really experienced with solo ToA, the method I ended up settling on is basically like a harder version of the way I dodge the floor hazards in P2 Wardens. Even the setup for skull skipping P3 Wardens is easier than this; the only thing I could see this maybe teaching is dodging Akkha waves, which has a way easier more intended mechanic of avoiding, baffling me even more.

@VR_Chad 10 часов назад

Im doing the mixology rn and id say 70 herblore is pretty mid level but without 86 your going to get the least amount of lye reward and in the shop thats what you need the most. Saved up some herbs but to get your lye reward your going to need a truck full of guams (mox) for 1000 Lye reward i ended up with 4000 mox. The paste being one to one with the points is fine got about 35k exph also not the worst of it since your getting 3 times the value per herb or so ive heard. If the mixes were not level gated and maybe the cost of the rewards themselves are a little less its fine as it is but rn not a fan especially if its advertised as mid level content but you kinda need 86 herblore.

Feels like all DOA except for the people who want to grind out abysmally slow QOL potions unfortunately.

Don't forget in launch they made it so even at 70 herb (the highest requirement quest wise) you will get three potions you can't make as the orders meaning you burn 30 tar to reset the potions made. There is also an herb then spawns every TEN MINUTES and lives for UNDER MINUTE and if you grab it then you get double exp for a single potion. I will say after thirty minutes or so you can just do the mini game without issues knowing what to make as the name of each potion tells you what goes into it. But yeah it's trash

Complains game is too easy. Cries that the minigame is too hard and needs plugins 😂

Thanks for pointing out the mid level content isn’t engaging enough for someone who would rather count game ticks while prayer flicking 3 combat styles with a 6 way switch… of course you don’t find it engaging.

I agree with like 85% of the points made, but I can't believe I'm hearing a guy with GM completions and who runs Dolo TOA call the Mixology activity "too complicated" and "requires plugins" to make work. The symbols tell you what station to use and the name tells you what to mix. You can get into a glow after like 30 minutes of learning. Also voting "yes" to content isn't the problem. No one knew it was going to be underwhelming, but that doesn't mean you don't vote 'yes' to content you think will be interesting or good for the game. I understand the disappointment, but the conclusion seems flawed.

It's not a bad update it's just not catered to the hlc. Varlmaore is largely catered to irons and mid level account progression providing new and fresh ways to progress your account. It's a good update

@felisk4304 13 часов назад

I have to disagree with your herblore take. It's 10 potion combinations to remember, 3 of them you don't even have unlocked at 70 herblore. And it's super easy *even on mobile* to click the book (wasting 1 tick) to get a refresher on the recipes. The XP/hour is bad. I do wish it was higher, but the XP/herb is very good. It's not just for those who want to avoid getting secondaries, it will also help cut down the time required to 99 for ironmans and UIM just like how tithe farm does.

ice boss is honsetly is VERY good, imo best part of the update. . it's again a good mid-game boss. I would consider it a mix between a harder hitting scurrius and a cal'varion. It also teaches movement placement, like arraxor pools or muspah spikes, as well as prayer re-application, like p2 toa, but only mage. Honestly, its a very solid boss for pre, or mid-barrows level players. Maracas are fantastic on the boss.

How does jagex allow this type of stuff to keep happening.. they had HUGE potential with this update/new bosses and it turned out extremely underwhelming.

@tvdvd8661 9 часов назад

2:43 thats an rs2/rs3 mechanic. They dodge it with bladed dive or surge. Weird why they would add it in osrs without a tool to dodge it. Even qbd had a spot where you could dodge it and that was rs2 this has nothing to realistically do besides walk through at the perfect time. Kind of dumb

@IronNoe 13 часов назад

After doing the Herblore mini game for 30 mins - 1 hour you won’t need a plugin. Only thing is to maybe rebalance how long it takes to get rewards. Things like pre pot taking 10-15 hours maybe reduce to 7-10 but doesn’t need to be faster than that

@maartenhuibers4713 10 часов назад

Besides this, why can't we make hueycoatl boots? It would give me some incentive to actually kill this boss as I don't want to grind boots from clues (not saying this would solve the drop table but not being able to make them with the hides makes 0 sense to me)

@Daerric 11 часов назад

Yeah I mostly agree with the whole vid. Huey kill times far too long, make most weapons actually useless there, and I don’t like forced group content. Herb minigame rewards cost too much. Ice nagua boss is pretty cool, but should have a better top reward than those useless (but dope looking) hammers. I like that it has a pet at least, and avg loot is okay. Colossal when course seems fine. The quests were good. That wand is very bad, I struggle to see any point in going for it at any level, when there are far easier to obtain and better options. We need more sources for both the new herb and the secondary, unless they dramatically decrease the price on the secondary.

@FukoHasStarfish 10 часов назад

I logged in and killed the group boss twice then logged back out. I don't care that the boss is easy. But the boss is entirely unengaging and boring.

@Its__ya__boi 12 часов назад

The fact that they're butchering group content this easy makes me seriously worried for actually difficult future group content. I'm convinced Raids 4 is going to be a shitshow at this point

@ThirdXavier 12 часов назад

I don't think it was a waste of dev time, I like the idea of an herblore minigame and huey they just need to fix it up like you mentioned. Better indicators and xp/rewards at herblore minigame, buff the wand so that its at least BiS at huey and olm (it seems strange to me they would make huey drop the earth book and weak to earth and NOT have wand be BiS against it), maybe give huey some worthwhile supply drops for low/mid level players (especially irons since they benefit the most from the huey armor, its easier to get than blessed dhide for them). You can't give huey too good of uniques but you should at least be rewarded for grinding it.

Amoxliatl is the best part of this update. It does a good job of introducing pvm mechanics without punishing you too hard for mistakes, and is genuinely a fun fight.

I agree with everything except the herblore minigame being complicated and needing a plugin. It is fairly simple

@spanishyeah 14 часов назад

I agree with a lot of this, and I think the herblore minigame needs tweaking but that’s neither here nor there. I will say, as a mobile only player, the minigame is easily doable and *relatively* intuitive. The different materials begin with M, A, and L respectively, and the names of the potions you make reflect that. Took about 15 minutes to get more comfortable with it. Herbs in the corners need a larger spawn window, speeding up the processing at the machines needs to feel as intuitive as the mechanic in Giants Foundry, and maybe considering a way to turn in all 3 potion orders at once for bonus xp? That feels like a no brainer at least Also I’ll die on the hill that the herblore outfit should not be cosmetic and at the very least should speed up the minigame somehow similar to Smiths Outfit at GF

10 hours of click intensive grinding for a minor qol that'll save like 5 ticks before a raid is insane. And even more for potion storage that literally everyone will want? They definitely need to fix this
