17th November 2009 - Potions, Spells and Runes
I was the one who said that example, and your completly right, which is what I was trying to get across, I just worded it badly I guess. The update benefits everyone up until 91, but provides no benefit to players 91+. Everyone is talking about reversing the update and how horriable it is. But thats wrong. This update is excelent, and makes the skill better, but Jagex just didnt go far enough with it. My point was instead of reversing this update and not making each level useful on your way to 91, Jagex should do the exact opposite, and make EVERY level more productive, even after 91. 45-90 should have a chance to make double nats 91 should make double nats 92-99 should have a chance to make triple nats I would rather see the skill boosted upwards than tore down to what we had before. I didn't really focus on my last post with that before, but its what I intened to get across. But your right, the cap should be removed. Comparing RC to Fishing and wood cutting is a bad example because those are both gathering skills. A better more accurate comparison would be would be with another processing skill, one like Cooking to be precise. Cooking works exactly the same way as RC. Only you replace chance at failing to process with chance at processing multiples.

Another failed magic update
Well, Jagex has finally got around to it after years of putting it off. They have at long last updated the Magic skill. This has brought about many welcome changes, however they have over looked one of the Magic skill biggest weaknesses. Magic is STILL vastly underpowered and USELESS in most player versus monster scenarios. Wile the new spells are very good. Trading holding ability for cheaper GP cost. These spells are still to underpowered for there level though, The God spells are better then the surge spells in many different ways, they are a much lower level, they hit higher and they inflict stat damage. So we can clearly see that the new spells as they are add nothing to the game. Magic is still incredibly expensive. Far to expensive to use in player versus monster. Magic is still weak. Far to weak to compete with God swords and Rune crossbows against bosses. When will they fix the Magic skill in PvM? Will they ever fix the Magic skill in PvM?

Not only is this a weak article, it is also a repost. This is like reading one of those billboards on the side of the road that say "Advertise here!". Is this a case of writers block?

Champions' Challenge - more than meets the eye?
I think an EXP reward would be best. Say 5, 1,000,000 exp lamps for skills over level 90. Even if you put that in Runecrafting it would still be pretty balanced. 500 hours for 5 million exp is not very good so it will not encourage the masses to play the minigame, and it's not a game breaking item that "forces" people to play the minigame. This still rewards those who have completed the minigame though.

Falador's 4 Standing Stones?
What stones? That is only swamp gas! I think theyu might have to do with something pre-Falador. Or maybe the Black Knights.

Monty Python reference ftw? I'm still waiting for the majority of Runecape to realize how easy it will be to circumvent the anti-76k thing. Their slow, give them time.

Human Progress
I have never once posted this before, but you deserve it: Cool story Bro. This is just another rant about people ranting, albeit more well written then most.

A (semi) serious rant about chickens.
I do that too, it normally ends up as: "Add me" *the next day* "Free stuff pl0x?" I respond "You can make good money by doing X" the next response usually determines weather I remove them or not. If it's "Oh, cool story bro. Free stuff pl0x?" I remove them. If they respond "Okay thanks!" well you get the idea.

Mechscape is going to destroy runescape.
Oh, okay. Well don't worry then. They are changing they way mechscape plays so hopefully it will not be a Runescape clone, and it will draw a different crowd. I would like to point out though that this entire thread is like counting your chickens before they've hatched. Its actually more like counting the chickens that might have been. Because jagex canceled mechscape this week. O rly? http://forum.tip.it/topic/249543-mods-merge-this-with-the-other-topic-please/page__st__40

[Dev Blog] 02-Nov-2009 Events Support
In the game (not the anime), when you are traveling through high grass you have the chance of encountering a wild Pokémon, and when the battle starts it has the dialog "A wild *name* appeared!".

Handcannon and other failed range updates
I remember the Seercull, good weapon for the hunted in FoG. No since is is near impossible to hit damage if you are the hunted... No, the hunted weaken proportionally with the distance you are from the center, and as such the farther you are from the center the better chance you have of dealing high damage. The Hunter normally chooses armor based on offense and not defense. The improves your chances of hitting high even more. So you run to the edge of the ring and shoot the hunter with the Seercull then go about your survival method of choice.

Items Kept on Death
If they allow you to choose what you keep on death they might as well let you keep everything on death because dying will mean nothing anyways.

GJ09: Best UK Dev goes to...
Fable sucks, GTA is the same thing over and over again. Jagex deserved this. I know I will get flamed for saying this.
