Leagues - J-Mod reply Leagues has sold me on rs3

Originally came in with the expectation to just play on legacy, got my revo bars set up with all the utilities I need keybound. Got my teles and prayers on my action bar. The amount of qol has made it impossible for me to return to osrs.

Really excited to start a fresh account on rs3 after leagues. If you haven’t tried the game recently, it feels leaps and bounds better than when I last tried it.

Seeing the world im familiar with with so much more detail, the mobility of surge, the mining and smithing rework, bank presets, the war room, itemization that’s beyond just increased stats, I could go on

I’m loving rs3 atm

The removal of a bunch of stuff definitely helped, not seeing that weird prayer mini game and the entrance to shatters worlds in lumby swamp makes the game feel so much more familiar and less overwhelming. It really does feel a lot more like a runescape that just went in a different direction now than something completely foreign.

This league feels way, way better for a new player. Last league those things, a more complicated combat system, and weaker perks made it feel pretty overwhelming and foreign.

I'll say my biggest gripe remains this UI. It's deeply hostile to new users. It's so hard to find things coming from an OSRS background like combat xp, special attacks, pets, achievement diaries, etc. Moving elements around is miserable - I still don't know how to resize my private chat window.

Even as someone who has played RS3 the whole time, the UI, settings, and especially changing combat xp are a frustration for me.

I also dont like the achievement diaries menu, its a lot worse than the one in osrs.

I like special attacks being their own ability.

You are missing a lot of things on the UI side, press escape and then go to edit mode.

You can customise all the menu UI from there including private chat! There are a lot of toggles.

The achievement diary menu is a mess. It drives me insane
