Opinion: Clue scroll stack cap progression is unnecessary is an opinion topic that Gnomonkey covers in 1 video on 2025-04-08. This article is a stub: his statements are grouped by type, repeated ones merged.

Stats and numbers

  • Players need to complete 75 master clues to reach the full five master clue capacity under the proposed table.1
  • He has 59 master clues completed on his main, and that reaching 75 for the second cap takes a very large number of hours.2

Gnomonkey's opinion

  • Gnomonkey says the stingy base cap of two when players could previously hold around a hundred clues means the change is a massive nerf, and that most players would not get past three clues for a long time.3
  • Gnomonkey questions the point of the capacity progression, wondering whether it exists to dissuade bots, and says a complicated table behind an RNG mimic kill is ridiculous because players would have to look up the wiki to know how close they are.1
  • Gnomonkey says he is glad Jagex did not lock the stack cap behind combat achievements as was floated on Reddit, because combat achievements should not reward unrelated things.4
  • Gnomonkey wants Jagex to scrap the progression entirely, so that completing X Marks the Spot allows holding the full number of scroll boxes.5
  • Gnomonkey says he does not understand why five is a firm cap and why it could not be 10 or 15, and wishes Jagex would explain the reasoning, possibly botting.6
  • Gnomonkey says the per-tier chart is obnoxious and difficult to follow because players must track how many clues of each tier they completed to know whether they can hold more.7
