Blutters

So decent clue, and although they're good for me, the prices are ridiculous. Purple Sweets over 10k each, more than brews? Rune Platebodies only 1k more in price than Platlegs? What is this retardry?

It is only slightly more difficult to kill them all. I noticed that if I had the long tunnel configuration my OVL might reset before I got all the way to the chest. I already use Void so I just switch helms and rapier->crossbow... But you can spec Akrisae with Korasi's and it will count as magic, allowing you to possibly get a fatal melee hit in directly after.

1 shard = 8 dust. 1 dust + 1 essence = 10 armadyl runes if you're a 99 rcer. So 80 runes in total max from one shard. To make them you craft air runes as normal at the air altar but with dust of armadyl in your inv. Do you know if you can be assisted by 99 RC and make 10 per dust? Lol going by the ge price of the completed staff, each shard would be 180k, so each cast would be 2250gp... EDIT LOL just realized, if you sided with Hazeel, wasn't he like level 296 in Hazeel Cult? And he's 150 and then 250 (if you sided with him and he therefore appears)... The whole J-Mod explanation about combat levels falls apart when you remember that the Barrows Brothers hadn't changed at all... -.-

How many Armadyl Runes are able to be made per shard? RSWiki says you get 8 Dust of Armadyl per Shard of Armadyl... However, they make it sound like you get as many Armadyl Runes per Essence as you would Air Runes, but I don't know if that just means that it takes just one Essence and 7 Dust of Armadyl to make 7 Armadyl Runes or if it means 1 Dust and 1 Ess makes 7 (or more if you have higher RC?)...

Additionally, does this mean that he can only channel his powers through servants and/or is physically weak? He did no actual combat himself; I watched pretty closely... Well, when you think about it, the barrows brothers have their own power, even though it was cultivated and ultimately enslaved by Sliske. It's like a relay, where Sliske uses a small amount of power to control the much greater strength of the barrows brothers. At least that's what I think. I wouldn't want to fight Sliske head-on even without the brothers on his side. As far as I remember, the Barrows brothers were powerful, but their abilities (otherwise "powers") were given to them by Sliske. I didn't see Akrisae do much during the fight / I don't remember how Akrisae fought before he was turned into another BB, but I wouldn't think his robes were Barrows "grade". Another question of mine is whether this is another detail of Sliske's transformation ability or a simple continuity gap... And of course how the abilities of the wight are chosen... ... And if we were wearing a Barrows set if we'd just have become another copy of that Barrows brother lol.

They're so pretty! And you can hug them if you want! And if you want to fight them they're really not that hard to kill. And they're a MAGE BOSS! WOW! Fire Surge [bleep]s up their beautiful lives! And they don't require super pro gear to be effective against! And, if it matters to you, there's no competition once you actually get a spawn. At the moment, there's no competition period - there are free spawns! UNHEARD OF RELEASE DAY! ---Attack with Fire Surge, pray accordingly!--- Glob of light = (left arm) Magic attack, minor damage with Deflect Magic Single icicle (right arm) = Ranged attack, no damage with Deflect Ranged Icicle cluster (both arms) = Area attack (1x1), GTFO the square you're on or GTFO life! ---Half health (can be reached in as few as 3 of your hits!)--- 3 tiny minions, all appear to use melee (should be noted they move at run speed!) Pro lure them around a pillar away from gigant Glacor Unstable Glacyte (ragequitter) (red) has two health bars, top one is actually ragebar... When this fills up, it will explode! You can, however, get out of explosion distance. After it explodes, hit it immediately to kill it! Sapping Glacyte (noobleech) (blue) drains your Prayer, although it was so slow I didn't notice! Enduring Glacyte (momma's boy) (green) cannot be hurt much when it's near the gigant Glacor... You must pro lure it away from the protective icy bosom of the large shiny! After that it's easy to kill. You must kill the three rittle ones to continue the true battle! ---Glacytes killed!--- Resume fight! Apparently the gigant Glacor obtains the abilties of the last Glacyte you killed, but I didn't really notice it, and I killed several. I'm fairly certain I killed the Enduring Glacyte last on every kill, and that 3-4 of my attacks hit very lowly before resuming full power. This shouldn't be much of an issue! ---Glacor killed!--- Pick up goodies! They appear to drop 3 charms at a time. Their notable drops are new Nikes, one for each combat class (better than Infinity, Ranger, and Dragon boots respectively) and Armadyl Staff Shards, which you can either collect a bunch of to make a staff orb or grind up with Pure Essence and make... Armadyl Runes... :mellow: ... at the Air Altar! Or whatever you decide to do with finely ground magical white powder!

He is in it, hes the guy with the horns. I'm not surprised you missed him though, he had about two lines of dialogue. Are you sure he appears if you didn't help release him during Hazeel Cult? Also overall I think WGS was better and I can't wait to see what Wicked is doing to those poor Glacors!

I didn't see Hazeel at all during the quest...

It seems on this computer your side bar is a center bar and I cannot see what I'm typing at the moment lol Any idea how I can fix this??

Sucks. IRL friend and I were going to order pizza and do the quest together in person. Rare [cabbage], that... But tomorrow I have a late class. Boo!

Finally Took 650 games for the first pair, others game decently soon after I like the look.

Some are obvious and admit it yes, but some there's no way we actually know if they're illegitimate. And if wrongly accused, there's no winning as JaGEx does not admit mistakes and players have no sympathy. I've heard the "if you're innocent you've got nothing to fear" but I can't believe that for RuneScape. And maybe it's just me picking up on this but they seem to take a lot more pleasure in banning legitimate players (botting or not) than accounts made purely for botting... Why else would they always mention all the max skill level 138s they ban? It's sad to think the more effort you may put into this game the bigger the false target on the back of your head may become.

Very happy with this. XP counter is right by the way, was taking pic of xp going down on counter and happened to get 97 Summoning seconds later so I just combined pics... No idea why it's darker lol. That's 25 Talon Beasts with the 1.1x deal :D

They've stated in the previous FAQ about the Refer a Friend bonus and stated specifically that it would NOT stack with bxpw. Ah alright. I thought it might be that one special boost that worked since, as far as I heard, the 10% did stack with all of the other bonus XP things on normal days.

Not that it matters to me or even most of the people here but did the 10% from referafriend stack with BXP?

Saw the title and first few lines and didn't bother reading the first article. 2nd article was alright but... Well, there's rarely an article that makes me think, gives me a new perspective, or that I really agree with. I don't agree with this much, at least as far as the shift from luck-based advancement. Sure Hybrid armors may be gotten at nearly the same rate for most people, but alongside them were released like 3 other typical frustrating luck-based sets. Otherwise it didn't really say anything anyone here didn't already know. Maybe I missed the point...

I feel this adequately represents my hatred for Runecrafting. Working on burning 2k Fiyr Shades now lol...

Still don't get why Summoning can't be trained at full bonus (aside from that people whined after the first BXPW, but people whine about every one of them...). How is stocking charms different from stocking herb ingredients? They're both just practically XP saved up...

Speaking of further loyalty rewards, I'd like to know if they're planning on giving more discounts or bonus points this month, kind-of to "celebrate" the new rewards...

73-74 RC so far. So kind of like getting 91-96 Herblore. Lolololol

This is the part I think you should've highlighted. Wuddafug?

Classes start at the same time every day for me so I typically go to bed between 12 and 3 and get up at around 10. And although I have a full schedule I have large gaps between classes. I love to take naps during the day because that's the only time I dream! Try sleeping exclusively on your back for short naps (like 1-2hrs). I think the sense of HAVING to get up to go to class may be what causes me to dream. It works for me... :)

Ooh. :) According to the Dev Blog, burning shades does work. Since I was going to do that again anyway and you can't usually get a bonus for them, I'll be doing that after 75 RC.

Thanks guys, that actually is pretty reassuring. :)
