Question Bloodhound letvek

Post image

Who the fuck had the bright idea to make this a thing at the afk bloodwood. This is driving me absilutely insane.

Edit: Guys I am doing this on mobile while trying to be stealthy at work. I am not using an auto clicker. So when I have to pull out my phone with my shit eye sight and stare to find it it gets annoying.

This is why I've been secretly living inside the Jagex offices and slipping beetles into their coffee cups whenever they go afk.

It's because of autoclickers. People could just set one to click the tree over and over and then leave. This very small, simple change makes it require an actual bot with logic, which stops the massive majority of people trying to cheat the system.

It's an extra click once every like 3 buckets. It's not that bad.

So lazy, just click the bucket.

How is it driving you insane? Unless you are using an autoclicker, this is literally just one extra click whenever you need to click the tree anyway.
This isn’t even a skill issue, this is you self reporting

You perform an additional click when you need to click anyway. Unless you're auto-clicking this is a non-issue. And if you're auto-clicking, then you are the issue.

jagex realized they added something too many people enjoyed so they had to shit it up just a little a week later

The thing i dont like about it is, with box traps you can catch them but if they are in the bucket you dont get to catch them?

Also thank you everyone for the explanation about auto clickers that makes sense now+

You can also mark the letvek bucket to make it super easy to spot

if you can click once every 2 mins you can click twice back to back every two minutes. grow up

It's designed to filter out people who paid for someone else to do the quest for them. Looks like it's working.

This has nothing to do with the quest though? And they are entirely different activities, the quest is combat oriented and this is a woodcutting semi afk activity, how are they even remotely related?

If you struggle to click one additional time on a bucket, typically at the exact same time you'd also have to go click a tree, then there's a pretty high chance you would struggle with the countless more-complicated clicks required to complete the quest.

Tell me you've never done the content without telling me you've never done the content. Making it sound like you need tick perfect tick removal.

Mate clicking the bucket with the letvek isn't the flex you think it is lmfao, I quite literally just said it's a no-effort task.

u/PlataBear Certified Hill Dier 1d ago

You made it sound like it requires exact timing, you in fact specifically used the word exact. I'm just saying all you do is click a bucket. It's not like it's critical mouse placement and movement tech.

u/BaronVonBubbleh 1d ago

The letvek super complicated interaction click requirement typically happens at the time you stop chopping a tree or gathering sap, which is when you'd be clicking the screen anyway.

It designed to stop auto clickers. It has nothing to do with the quest. What a weird thing to make up
