In any case it's quite clear to see that the symbol all over the in-game media picture matches the symbol right aboe the doorway in the concept art, and it's not the "generic" symbol of Zamorak either. Which is why it's interesting. Why is Zamorak's influence in the desert? How is it related to resurrecting past foes? Why is the symbol unique?

It sounds like I could definitely get 2m Summoning XP if I worked my way to an ABS :) A quarter of that being from Effigies alone lol I think that's what I'll do then! Thanks all!

I would like to get 97-99 Summoning, which I've been putting off for entirely too long. (About 2m XP) I hate Waterfiends, am sick of Slayer, and don't want to deal with the hassle of Rock Lobsters. *Fair enough?* How are Glacors? Simple terms of Effigies and charm drop rates would be best, as I'm not sure I can kill them as fast as other people, making per-hour rates particularly unreliable. Otherwise, is there a reliable rate for Talon Beast Charms per hour? Additionally, what would be the best person to take to hunt the charms specifically? I'm guessing the melee guy at lvl 99 but I'd like to be sure.

Wouldn't a lower nature rune price, create lower prices for the commonly alched items? Shoudln't alched items rise to fill the new gap? Their alch value remains constant.

It's also worth noting the +70 ranged defense of the newer Sacred Clay Shield while on this subject.

But the terrain is green with a tinge of yellow, which likely just means grassy area or jungle areas (as they are green with a yellow tinge in places) and you can see more land across the water which doesn't really fit the deserts layout. And the architecture doesn't fit with the desert that draws on egyptian and kinda classic arabian styles, puts me in mind of kethsi, daemonheim and other old pre-godwars places like ghorrock. Perhaps we could FINALLY being to kudos isle? The 2nd concept art he linked to (actually not sure where it came from, but it shows a glove) has some rather random but clearly labeled "Desert Headgear" in it.

If they're banning such a massive amount then they probably have a 1-click method. Wouldn't want to be caught in that crossfire... You[r level 138 2300+ total] account has been banned for website advertisement [due to grievous error on the part of one of our employees]. What of the PM bots? The ones that PM gold advertisements rather than spam them in the open? I never thought about it before, but those might be safely tucked into the lobby. I only mention those because they bother me far more than F2P spam bots, and seem like the next logical thing to tackle before they go full-swing on the "real" bots. Anyway, I guess it's neat to have this confirmed from the rumor we've had for a few days now...

DOMINION TOWER Everytime I read it I think deep voice and echo, lol. Sounds neat, but I would've much preferred over 50 new bosses rather than more recycled content. Let's face it. At the moment, most quest bosses are flick on deflect melee and melee it to death. Hopefully the gloves match the Glacor boots though... We've had Barrows gloves for YEARS. Halloween events are always a nice 15-60 min show of the latest graphics. I actually liked the Bone Brooch we got last time too. The fact that they're adding special details to the already visually spectacular citadels makes it sound even better. Not much to say on Agility D&D. I've never been a fan of D&Ds in general, mainly because there's still no alert system telling me when I can go do them again, other than that privacy intrusive toolbar. If they made in-game pop-ups for repeatable events I might have a different opinion. At least it kinda sounds like what I would've envisioned Brimhaven Agility "Dungeon" to be, so I will be looking forward to how it goes.

It should be a per-person opt-out. If a person doesn't want to skill, they can pay instead to have it done instantly. Obviously (depending on the amounts) the leader could just give everyone the money to pay, but at least then it still requires some coordination... However, I think cosmetic-within-cosmetic details should be fully payable, such as the walls, greenery, statues, etc.

I'd love to try to make some of these. Are you only able to use models the way they're represented in the cache? IE, no papercrafts of full players, only able to choose the default pose of monsters? I ask this in part because Jad's pose is a little strange. Is it more/too difficult to make some of the newer, much more detailed bosses/NPCs? I hope I'm not underestimating the difficulty of the conversion process. If I could break into this, I'd probably make the different Mahjarrats or Kal'Gerion demons. I guess I need a starting point lol.

Lol Mobilising Armies? Are you trying to get him to quit again? If you enjoy any of the actual minigames, I would cycle through the ones you can get Hybrid armor from. Landing a crushing victory in Castle Wars usually leaves me feeling motivated. If you're more for achievements, there is the task system. You could try to complete all of them, working toward the ones you don't have the stats for in order of lowest levels needed to highest.

[/hide] What number ceremonial sword is that? I got number 1, and kinda regret it. Looks too plain to me. Also, is that Changshan (Chengshen? Changshen?) in the middle? Oh, and I friggin' love the muscle-man pose emote. It's #5. And I think hide tags are messed up... -.- And BEHOLD MY IMPULSE BUY!

Random But actually pretty good

Considering it's the only thing I've wanted since the program's inception and how I can't be bothered to remember to use auras, this'll see more consistant use than any other reward for me. Lol just realized it's technically not part of this update, but whatever... :mellow:

T5 Citadel and Clan Theater are pretty neat. Notable changes to the Citadel itself are that the walls can finally be walked on, and the roof of the church has the Clan Theater, which is the picture below. Large pic, hope it resizes automatically... Unfortunately, if you're not part of the clan, you can only perform the sitting portion of the new emotes as you can not enter the actual stage area (presumably a clan leader can change this, because the clown on the minimap behind the curtain wouldn't).

Behold the FISTBOX! (It's still off-center a bit without gloves/with other gloves. What the hell is it even supposed to be? Seems like originally it was just a quick fix lol.) I actually tried it at Glacors 2 or 3 days ago. Didn't get any of the amazing hits posted here before... :( In fact many (most??) of my hits sucked. Is it absolutely certain that Magic bonus doesn't matter?

I'm going to have to join you soon on both of those fronts! I'm way overdue for 99 Summoning lol...

Present for Glacors, lol. Hopefully even if they "fix" the super bonus damage it'll still be an okay shield slot option. Strange to see bots actually caught in a random! EDIT: Actually does anyone know what cape is best at Glacors? It seems dumb to make a H&A thread just to ask that.

Is that second splat from Surgebox?

Don't mean to butt in, but thats the default colour. I agree the black ones nice but the sash's colour ruins it for me, everyone knows Black & Red belong together, purple? Uh! Yellow is actually one of the recolor options... ...Even though it's normally yellow... Because you might decide you don't like the new color and want the original? Having an original option and yellow recolor are different game-wise...

Well, yeah, that's why I was asking. I was hoping they wouldn't make a "recolor" so close to the original, but that there are only 3 recolors is also slightly odd.

Of course, here are all the SoL and changshan colors: Ooh, thanks! I rather like the style of the top and bottom, but all of them have at least one color I don't like... :mellow: Is the far left Staff of Light actually a recolor?

Here's a blue SoL with black changshan robes (without the ugly hat - classic hood looks much better): The staff looks really nice IMO :) Thank you for this picture, but could you possibly post the other colors? Changshan was actually something I was considering... :) I know it's probably based off of some IRL clothing, but it resembles some concept art I made once. Not that I was the inspiration or anything, lol.

No but seriously good job. Getting a hilt yourself is like a rite of passage!

Yes. That's what these are. Because they're certainly not menacing Necromancers' Staves. Because all the effort went towards the awesome robes...!! So half-ass staves and double-ass robes. Acceptable! Too bad it took 4.5k burns (45-50m or thereabouts) to get them... Lol and not a kit for a hood either. But that's whatever!
