In the past I would've of agreed but since we have jumped the shark on that I think now a more appropriate move would be the consideration of the need for a grace period in relation to the difficulty the boss will pose. Heck I'm sure they could even code a grace period as a product of numbers - ie when x % of players who had comp meet the new req then all others lose the cape. Would probably work best in terms of fairness if done like that too - wouldn't be instantly lost for everyone in the face of new content that is going to take significant time for the masses to be able to get through BUT at the same time you would face losing out once enough had beaten it to signify that the content has been worked out and is doable for the 'normal' player and therefore it was your inaction or lack of skill that merits the lose of the cape. But then I'm sure even the concept of a grace period will have the 'your whining' 'your not entitled to it' etc crowd fuming at the bit because heaven forbid it being a reasonable notion to not lock the entire player base out of ownership of the cape for an extended period due to the addition of content that is fully intend to take several days for even the elite players to manage to best, let alone the run of the mill guys. I'd certainly agree to a grace period... but then after achieving Comp I reverted into a filthy casual so what do I know :P If it were up to me I'd have the Comp remain wearable even after new reqs have been released, but have it assume some dull/non-customizeable/otherwise undesirable appearance, and unable to gain any new stats/abilities until fully re-unlocked again. ... I mean just sayin with all the shit one already has to do to even achieve Comp for the first time these days, I think they've earned a permanent BIS cape item... :| Also, this is neither here nor there, but if you decide/think you really cannot do high level PvM (in order to re-Comp) then just leech lol. If you wait long enough, enough teams will have enough experience so that there is a high volume of raids leech groups that are also constantly gaining more experience in order to compete against one another - reducing the price to leech to something that should be affordable to anyone who has Comped to begin with. In other words, it's quite a bit like, say, paying 200k or w/e to auto-complete that slider puzzle in Monkey Madness - just scaled up quite a bit for the endgame. ;)

lol idk if ive seen anyone recomped just yet

So, to enchant and use Reaper Necklace/Ring of Death or to sell? -_- Was happy enough with Scythe improvements, Hydrix was icing.. lol how much % does Ring of Death take for a 'safe' death anyway? As per the main update, wondering if an Airut Slayer Task helps... ;)

I feel like I should be ashamed of how naive I was to think that they ever intended any faction besides Godless to win. It's become pessimistically certain that they're following a set update schedule with the illusion of player input or choice. Harder Mode Vorago has was probably completed months ago lol.

Lol I think most people wouldn't have tried very hard to get all the rewards as quickly as they did, had they known it was going to be open for longer... hence what I intended by false pretense of time exclusivity... Also, the XP seems quite OP. I accepted that because, again, I figured it was a time-sensitive deal. Although, XP bears less and less meaning as we go forward it seems.

I actually really liked the sound of this month, but admittedly watching the video made it seem more exciting than reading the text. The only thing I don't care for is leaving Tuska's event open.. Since the island-hopping was essentially ALL of the [bleep]ing World Event 3, you really can't just leave it accessible without turning the entire thing into one long boring minigame with a false pretense of time exclusivity.

Oh lmao, nice, good ol RS meme action

http://www.reddit.com/r/runescape/comments/3b317b/how_to_view_any_animation_with_the_new_character/ Nice :) Needs all the pretty effects, but does look like it's html5 or w/e?

So they probably fixed the berserk mode for normal rune drags, and normal elites, but with their 'joke'/tribute elite they forgot? For that matter, none of them are even supposed to be aggressive with this update lmao Seems the same deal as how they fixed all warpriest sets release by release, and now tuska set has the same problems cuz it was released later (can't keepsake, etc).

Must be the first time I ever built this statue, totally wasn't expecting an automaton lmao

Gotta use the Tesla to fight the Tuska!

Unless you pick it up and place it back down? :P

Got the same thing :| strange

Still no 2h abilities etc, but seeing how their polls end between today and tomorrow I'll assume them out with the next major game update. As for this rework, of course the focus will probably be auto reload which is neat, but should it really require 100%? The rewards are lackluster but not really bad, exactly. I'm anticipating that my Comp will have been arbitrarily removed, so we'll see if Ceremonial Swords are any less of a pain in the ass to make now lol Nope :D

Lol lost like 14m buying Ascension way too late then it immediately crashing after people initially hated Rune Dragons or w/e. My bad ofc, had nothin to do with the update itself but the wording in the update post stressing how useful Ranged would be there. I'm also pretty sure that the slightly bonus from Asc doesn't even really matter there, but w/e. I really don't mind fighting Rune Dragons much. I think, with the next update, they will be made completely unaggressive; my only real annoyance there is the way the dragons constantly PJ you... XD especially if you have an Elite Rune Dragon to kill - you have to tag the Elite as the normal one you're fighting is dying so that another normal one won't attack you. The loot seems good, but we'll have to decide after the bones and such settle a bit better. I bought/made Hailfire Boots the first day and keepsaked em, lovin the look so far. :)

Beta polls: 1.2s Barge bind Removed Barge's cooldown shared with Surge/Escape (can now Surge Barge to close huge gaps) Old batch of Beta updates are going to go live (eg No legacy SS cap) Possible to get each other killed during Raids There was a line of code that reduced legacy damage to Araxxor by 25% which will be removed The red meteorite chunks will be used for raids (save them) Ironman group bossing should include raids The group bossing update will make it possible for Ironmen to get comp cape ... 2H abilities? Panic buy Scythes? :P Confirmed ;)

Elite Rune Dragons supposedly drop them even off-task. They are fairly challenging to make up for this - almost like a Demon Flash Mob boss with a little less LP.

alt spacesuit? ^_^ await slight improvements with Hailfire Boots release. These scrubs didn't even use bloom... ;)

World Event-dedicated outfit, naturally :P Space Scourge! A Zamorakian golem sent past the Tuska safe zone to search for potential treasures or weaknesses within Tuska or her debris. Capable of reentry through Gielinor's atmosphere sparing unit destruction. ;)

It would be one thing for the Godless to have a clear lead, but the massive disparity at present is both ridiculous and suspicious. It certainly implies something underhanded or unfair is happening. I don't think anyone (including myself) would be crying foul if Godless contribution was only twice one of the other factions, or even equal to all of the other factions combined, but it seemed like their lead was as much as four times the others combined or more. Even considering the perfectly reasonable occurrance of all the non-Godless who might join Godless does not explain the gap.

It'd actually be really cool if after a certain time in the event Tuska's energy was weakened enough to let the respective gods/Vorago attack directly in some form. How strong exactly is Tuska supposed to be? Upper T4? Just by virtue of her mass she seems to be higher than the other gods... Also, where are her other followers? The elephants, etc lol

reddit quote but w/e Can someone please explain how to make a group with this? I got as far as forming a group. Then I jumped into the thing thinking it would teleport everyone in the group. That's not how it works. I got sent in solo, while my other friends were grouped together. And then I ragequit, because this only seems tolerable in a group. So, how does it work?

It's great how the godless have already won because if you don't pick a side your contribution goes towards godless? You shouldn't be able to participate without joining a faction. Are the people that haven't joined a faction but are contributing/capping that absent-minded, or that complacent? :|

2h is still going to be garbage, js. I think attuned hally and scythe after getting hally range will be good in a fair few places -_- Also Zamorak-senpai would be proud |^_^| Awaiting ascension :D
