  1. I actually remember being disappointed when I realized the great mythical "North" was just that region of snow with the ritual icon. Even as I was doing RotM, I kept thinking we were going to travel to some continent far north of the wilderness that would be this awesome mystical Mahjarrat realm.

    Then the quest was over and I was like, oh..that was the North.

  2. My main take away from MQC: I never quite realised just how many pointless post-quest tasks exist in-game.

     

    Like we all know the big tickets like illuminating prayer books and what not, but my god some of them are just like wtf?

     

    Getting to a 50gp chest in Icthalarin's little helper?

    Tlelling Cecilla to leave the abbey or not after one piercing note?

    Going back to the rusty anchor after Braindeath rum thingy to say you actually delivered the rum?

    Taking a redberry pie to tht guy under ice mountain?

     

    Also omg I hate rngsus I have 10 reqs left now.

    1 is buying Mad Rambling part 2 which im a few honour points off.

    The rest are all rngsus drops, including feeding tht frigging monkey bananas til it spits out a clue scroll.

    I spent like an hour feeding tht thing today -.-

    At least they didn't require stuff like strange token drops from DG.  That would be 'true mastery' but they decided to leave it out because of 1/50,000 RNG.

     

    Agreed, though, with your point.

  3. If it's not too much trouble could you see about asking Crew leader if I could come back? I'm under the impression y'all need some crewbies.

    You're welcome to PM @Arceus or @Stev.

     

    OT: Reddit, RS Wiki, and Jagex completely checking out of caring for fansites.

     

    The nature of RS Wiki and reddit allow them to become fundamentally bigger communities with greater wealths of knowledge much faster than a forum and site with a team of less than ten. Even if our crew was in full force, we could not compete.

     

    However, this is not necessarily a bad thing. RS Wiki is limited in its abilities to create unique tools, something we welcome suggestions for (e.g. DGSweeper, Ports calculator, x y z planner, calculator, simulator).

     

    We have the capability to create anything we want via custom web design, whereas the wiki format is restrictive to articles and various scripts (suggestions welcome).

     

    I also far value the forum discussions here - they are much more real and substantive than reddit comments 'lol' 'nice' 'cool' '10/10'.

  4. Nice!

     

    New find that I couldn't find on tip it - Medium clue scroll

     

    Anagram: IM KROM

     

    Leads to Rommik located in the crafting store at Rimmington

     

    Challenge scroll: "How many rocks in the Rimmington mine cannot be used to make bronze?"

    Answer: 10

     

    Thanks again!

     

    EDIT: The challenge is actually on tip.it and is correct, but the anagram is not there

    Added and credited, thank you, saywuuuut!

  5. And 1 year later, I'm still impressed with how much this show moves my emotions over other television series.

     

     

     

    His death was inevitable though, imo.  Lost sight of his own men's dissent as he grew distracted with the white walker problem.  Very Ned Stark-esque in how honor and the "right thing" ended up being the death of him.

     

     

  6. Skype?  Really?  I'm screwed.  I hit the dead wall known as my family when it comes to loading up communications applications. :wall:

     

    Worse, what about all the constant exploiting that happens to Skype?  Bah, I guess being a Tip.It Crewbie is only for Social Media Nuts who don't worry about issues with loading any piece of software they come across. :(

    Yeah I feel you, that's why I took a leave of absence from Crew one time. I couldn't stand all the social media nutcases, but don't worry, in ten years they'll all be in insane asylums for daring to use any software made in the last ten years. Can you believe, we primarily use Chrome, and not IE? It gets worse, we actually use HTML5.

     

    I know, I know. I've tried to talk to the administrators about downgrading. We probably should switch to the vastly superior IRC and save ourselves from the NSA hackers. I know they've been dying to get intel on Tip.It's latest guides these past few months. Their director's son is going for 120 Slayer and needs the best task prefer/block list. I'll discuss this with the administrators and report back.

     

    Guys please please like this forum post so my social media ego validation can be fulfilled.

    But actually, best of luck to those applying. Once you get past the mandatory Facebook and Instagram like contests (or the Tumblr argument competitions), it's really quite fun! :)

  7. The replay mechanic was advertised as a cool feature, but after replaying three times it feels like excuse content - since they didn't make anything more than shortened, reskinned versions of the original four. Like hey, we realized that the quest(s) are actually pretty short and 70% copy-pasted, so you can replay them so the update seems bigger!

     

    Rewards were unimaginative. XP lamps always scream we-couldn't-think-of-anything to me. Tasks set rewards useless. Cosmetics, except for Arrav, pretty bad (oh yay I can't wait to show off my cool black priest gown replacements to people). Darklight reward is the only thing that grabbed my attention as being "worth it."

     

    Would've been more interesting (and obvious...I thought) to have Dimension gear and/or weapons a la RFD gloves/kitchen weapons.

    Would've also liked to see a more diverse pathway to obtaining the chromatic party hat rather than grindscape slap-on requirement of 200k. Granted, it isn't as long to obtain as other things in RS.

     

    On the plus side, however... The most fun I had with the new dimension was exploring the environment unrelated to the quests - funny easter eggs and clever dialogues with Pauline Polaris, seeing Solomon in the bottle, et cetera. They did that humor immersion stuff very well. Tiny Zemo was really cute and funny. Other random things like the titles of the books in the bookcases were well done. They should keep that up. Quest dialogues making fun of themselves were enjoyable.

  8. Even if this was already suggested, I think my idea for the use-item-on-NPC-to-create-counter would eliminate any objections.

     

    RuneLabs link:

    Custom "My-NPC-Here" Kill Counter (Slayer Point Purchase Item)

     

    Even though I hate BondScape, if they don't go for the slayer points unlock idea, I could see this being a good bond rental/purchase item a la wealth evaluator.

     

    Have 2 counter slots for any creature we would like to track kills for in the slayer creature killcount tab.

     

    Now, I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING! To avoid having to make a massive ridiculous search database ingame, and make things more interesting, have an item, purchasable with slayer points or reaper points, that you use on any killable NPC, creating a counter in an available slot for that NPC.

     

    Or perhaps make this item a rare drop from something.

     

    Or hell, if it justifies the development time, make it a TH/bond rental item *shudder*
