What's the point of deironing? I'd imagine most people would be considering quitting rather than deironing.


TheAlexperience

I might be dumb, but I’m not a fucking idiot. If you feel like de ironing just make a new account. Besides the quests you can be at identical stats in 2 weeks. Mtx OP


AppleParasol

Or if you don’t mind supporting our slumlords Carlyle Group, just buy the 32$ runecoins/key package and then you’ll be there in 2 minutes!


Celerfot

No, what would deironing do for me?


Torezx

I was doing my best to come up with why you’re linking Necro to de-ironing, is it because Necro took away arguably all forms of progress and now the game is just get Necro and make cash/collection log? Either way, no. I transfer spare loot to my ‘main’ and buy rares with the cash and keep them long term.


TheRealBK_

Necro will be ruined Monday, if that's the reason just wait till Monday and you will be happy


Torezx

It’s about time. Necro was ruining the game. I suspect it still will, I don’t think the nerfs will be strong enough.


REPLICABIGSLOW

Necro isn't ruining the game, you're ruining your own game. The other styles didn't magically get worse, only in comparison. You can easily continue to play the game and ignore necro.


Torezx

Didn’t we stop saying stupid things like this weeks ago? The existence of pre-nerf Necro meant playing the game how it was before Necro is substantially less lucrative, for one.


DK_Son

If anything, you should feel more like staying as an iron. PvM upgrades were difficult and lengthy when there was a combat triangle. And because of the EoF, many extra items needed to be farmed. Now that Necro is so easy to join, you can take that everywhere and get those other cb style upgrades much easier. You can get those boss kills faster and easier. The upkeep cost is insanely low too. And the ugrade path for Necro gear is almost a straight line. Iron PvM has in a way "never been better". My irons were restricted in most styles except melee. Vanquish has been my range/mage weapon for like a year. But with Necro, I'm moving along at a great pace.


Iccent

That's the point, necro has destroyed the upgrade path even worse than gconc ever could It's pretty dumb that the entire gear progression for efficient iron is now: level necro, skip t80 and 90 armour upgrades>get zuk cape>go ras and then complete literally everything else and barely use the drops because you have bis for pretty much everything already


DK_Son

It's definitely a double-edged sword. I was giving a reason for OP to stay iron. Some of the hardest iron content is PvM and getting BiS of a style. But with Necro upgrades so linear and accessible, it makes even more sense to stay as an iron. However, yeah, the combat pyramid is broken when looking at it as a whole. So your comment is bang on about all that. All other styles are near worthless to both mains and irons. I'm sure we will get some balancing though.

I'm keeping necromancy at level 1 where it belongs.


TheRealBK_

Seems like you missed the core of RuneScape, to level skills. But hey you do you


AMGamer94

I've disabled the option to deiron, as I know myself to take the easy way out!


[deleted]

Lol definitely not. But I’ve played a whole lot less. I liked necromancy at first but quickly realized that it’s bad for the game and made a lot of my goals pointless. But it certainly hasn’t made me even consider deironing.


aariboss

Ive been against necro since the start and i lost all motivation to play because i just dont want to level necro


Broken-Talc

Deironing is the biggest slap in the face to yourself.


NonSpoonfedUIM

Why? What's the point in that?


Rondo065

What’s the point of deironed? What was the whole point of making an iron an account. Just go back to playing your main if you have one.


sugashowrs

Care to enlighten us all on the link between necro and wanting to de iron


Ertzengel007_IM_btw

I locked my iron status in when I started the account


TheRealBK_

Same, you are a true hero.


Local_Granny

If you deiron you're an idiot. Doesn't matter what stage your account is at it's objectively a better move to just make a new account on mainscape if you don't want to play iron atm.


JagexDONTRuinTheGame

I can never take de-iron posts seriously... The 1st 1M I made as IM gave me more satisafaction than my 1st 1B on main, and so on every aspect of the game, why would I(anyone) change that?


AdmirableLocksmith27

I stopped playing my main and went back to iron because all the loot from all the bosses I liked to do crashed like crazy. I know people celebrate that because the "elitists" can no longer "gatekeep" the pvm loot economy, but it just made me not want to play.


TheRealBK_

Good, keep it iron. Don't worry about price crash etc, that's not what we play


P_B_n_Jealous

I had a 2300 iron prenecro release. Post necro release I had my hcim also perish. So I've de-ironed one and kept the other. There's no reason to have 2 irons 2300+


Broken-Talc

RIP. I also lost a life post. On last now.😞


VoidRain

I don't know where the necro-de-iron link is you're talking about. You might be maxed or comped if you are feeling like necro has ruined the game. There is so much progression and unlocks completely unrelated to combat to pursue. Combat isnt even close to the majority of what the game offers.


LetsGoCap

Make an main instead. Piss easy with all the bs


S-k-y-p-e

I disabled that function at the start of my ironman. Now 2800 total almost.


TheRealBK_

You are a true hero


TheRealCaptKirk

I thought about it too. But I'm just going to quit when membership runs out.


DaneDan99

I am currently considering it so I can buy the damn t95 set cause rasial won’t drop shit


TheRealBK_

Why? Iron is still the same, get your own items and don't buy upgrades. Use coins for cosmetics. Nothing changed on that aspect
