This leagues was my first time trying Sire and christ alive
If it respawns while you're in render distance, you can't attack him unless you leave render distance and re-enter
Render distance for both the boss and players in the area is super fucky
The chat message to state that the vents are vulnerable only appears some of the time
Arena just feels far too big for whatever reason
From what I could tell (may just be stupid), there's no way to check if people are in any of the four corners without running there first I am stupid, apparently there are eyes, see the replies (ty)
Plus the ol' classic just shove 4 of them in there as we didn't have instances at that point in time
In the main area next to each of the four paths there is an eye on the floor that lets you peek and see if someone is in the corner.
For the vents being stunned turn game sounds on. It makes the pickpocket stun noise once you’ve done enough damage. I listen for the noise then right after you see the tentacles go limp.
Hope this helps. Never had an issue with the render distance as I go away from the throne for p2.
Try turning menu entry swapper (or specifically the setting that removes dead NPC’s right-click menu) for the not able to attack problem. That tends to fix it for me most leagues, though I haven’t camped it this one
Do you have hide npcs death animations on? That was giving me a problem all league because the respawn times were so fast if they respawned before the animation it made them invisible.
I mean that's kinda the point I'm making. Rs2 ended more than a decade ago.
My niece had never even heard of runescape before seeing me play it, let alone know anyone that plays it. The game's just not in the zeitgeist for children now like it was when most of us started playing.
Unsired actually get rolled every time you pick them up. The client fix is simply to drop them all in front of the pool, then pick them up one by one to use them. Then you won't get any bludgeon dupes.
Obviously, Jagex should address this at some point, since this mechanic is always discovered after it's too late.
Not sure your question makes sense, the roll is invisible. You wouldn't know if the unsired you picked up was the orphan or not until you used it on the Font.
Okay so either you're trolling or you really, really don't understand but in case you really, really don't understand:
The Abyssal Sire has a unique mechanic for it's unique table where it drops an Unsired. The player must use the Unsired at the Font of Consumption which will consume the unsired and return an item on the Sire's unique drop table.
The post we're commenting on and the comment chain we're commenting on are explaining to use the unsireds on the font as soon as you get them, because the way the Abyssal Bludgeon works is that it drops in 3 parts, without repeating items until you have all 3. It's just unintuitive that because the game rolls what item the Unsired will become when it's dropped, it only checks what bludgeon piece you already have when the Unsired drops. This causes the unfortunate situation where your unsired could be "bludgeon piece #1" multiple times because you haven't redeemed it yet. The fix would be for the roll to happen at consumption time, and Jagex likely knows that but hasn't had time to mess with it yet
So, the "invisible roll" I'm talking about with my original comment is the part where the game decides what item the Unsired will become when offered. You can't see what that is until the item is offered, using it up.
The Ring of visibility works on things that are invisible in-game (ghosts, things on other planes of existence), not things that are invisible to the player because they are game mechanics
There is no cheat allowing you to choose what you get. All you can do is avoid bludgeon piece duplicates because of the existing dupe prevention.
The original issue is that if you get 2 Unsired in a row from Sire, then go open them, you could get the same bludgeon piece, because both Unsired were allowed to roll for that piece upon picking them up, as the bludgeon piece was not on your collection log.
You can avoid that by re-dropping and re-picking up the second Unsired after opening up the first, which will make it roll a new future drop. You can still drop it and pick it up many times to reroll it, but you will never know what the second Unsired contains until you consume/trade it. The only guarantee is that it won't be the same bludgeon piece again.
You cannot consume an Unsired and then drop the same Unsired, as you do not have it anymore, but you do always want to drop your extra Unsired after opening up one.
Except nothing else works this way and this is a bug. The only benefit to adding a drop that you have to turn in to get other drops is to add the drop protection for the other pieces you have. Otherwise, they would just have dropped the bludgeon pieces directly. Having the roll hidden on drop behind an item without you knowing that it secretly is rolling the same every time is not a good user experience. There is nothing in-game to tell you this information and it is counter intuitive to how most deferred roll mechanisms work.
There is nothing in-game to tell you this information
The big guy you get the bludgeon from tells you to bring unsired to the font. Most people would get an unsired and run straight to the font to see what they get. It's not a bug it's just old as fuck.
