I got to try out the new skill yesterday and all i can say is I love it. Lots of fun, not easy, but not to hard either. I really like how you can get xp in other skills while playing, i have been doing it with just one partner and splitting the xp with them. There is certianly a very steep learning curve and it will take a little while to get used to everything. Only thing i think they should had is along with the name add what tier level each thing is becuase that can get confusing and wastes time examining each thing when a monster dumps like 6 things on the floor. Overall though :thumbsup: Big tumbs up i love it.

Ill take my credit for saying the new area would be the staging area for the new skill also.....

Well im stuck at work but from what i have been reading it seems more like a minigame but its also seems like it will be very fun reminds me of Zelda and getting through the dungeons or towers to fight the bosses at the end of them. I love the update but as a skill it can not be ground out like most of the skills and i couldn't see myself going through 1 or 2 dungeons in a session it would get too repetitive.

Id say your on the money Phats are way too rare to ever crash and they are only slowly becoming more rare. What is the "street value" in GP for 5 Santas 2 green masks 1 blue and a yellow p hat?

First: How many games have been around for 9+ years and are still growing and getting nearly weekly updates not many if any? Second: How much do you think they can add to a game before its just get so big and so complicated that no one new to Runescape will want to sign up to play because the game is so large and complex its takes months just to figure out how everything works and ties in with eachother? Third: Leaving the ends of skills open allows for more future content and will allow the game to last longer. Once the game is finished it will be literally "finished" as in those playing will slowly move away and will not be replaced by new players comming in. Keeping things open allows the game to be slowly finished and keeps it alive and changing which will also help bring up new players becuase they will see that game is alive and still growing. Fourth: Maybe when your not in the 14 to early 20s range you will be better able to wrap your head around things like the above and understand the new skill/ new godsword/ new high level content cant come out every week becuase after a a year or so there will be nothing left to add... Try to take a few minutes and think about it long term.....

NO horrible idea.

I have used my wifes Ipod touch mouse app to play runescape off of my 42 inch TV. But its not all that great just big. I normally play off of a 21inch CRT Monitor(this beast weights like 60-70 pounds and has warped the shape of the desk it sits on). If I dont forget ill take a picture when i get home this monitor really is beastly its like over 14 inches deep.

Get more herb xp or prayer.

I agree as a casual long time player of runescape things like this dont really engage me , although if there is some item or something ill follow a guide to get the item but otherwise i never get involved in this type of game play.

I am in my 10th year of playing, id like to see runescape around in another 10 years still being devoloped and updated there is only so much you can before you really can add anything else so im glad they aren't finishing the skills and i hope they drag out finishing them with high level content for years. I think i play runescape alot, almost every day, but i only play for like an hour or so. I guess if you no life the game you can get all 99s and then have stick up your butt about not having anything to do... but i dont think Jagex made the game for players that sit and play 10-12 hours a day month after month grinding everything out. I will defend most of what Jagex has done with the game as i have been around to see it when it was just log in (there was only one server). Any way back on topic this little fishing game seems nice dunno when i get around to playing it... Not a huge deal but i love that i wont have to keep bringing rope to the kalphites lair.

I didnt do anything epic... and i wasnt even set up ready to go for bonus xp week but i did manage to get from 70- 80 herblaw. After that for some reason i wanted to chop some trees so i been doing that for the 1.2 and 1.1 bonus xp.

The reward is having the full statue in your house something most players wont ever finish becuase it takes a really time to do. That is the only reward, a status symbol showing you have put alot of time into gaining a piece of the game few people will ever finish.

Botting and people selling money are still alive and well M Y Apple(lvl 98) is goldfarmer you can find out in the wild giving money via the white berry method i have reported it a few times but as of yet nothing has happened. Worse is the fact that its not using a pure bot program there is some guy that watches over the operation and sometimes in broken english tries to tell me to leave him and his bots alone. I can see his operation some where in China with like 10 -15 computers hooked up each gold farming on different worlds some gold farming on different games and this 40 year old Chinese guy smoking and watching all the screens incase a random pops up for a mod comes to check up on the reports.

I feel the same way but i am going to take advantage of it by one buying some items i have wanted but didnt want to pay full price for and i have a bunch of DIY herbs im going to try and get from 70 to 75 herblaw out of. So even though i think this whole bonus weekend thing is totally bogus i will use it. But i hope they never do this kind of thing again.

LOL... the watch Andrew pick his nose cam wow that brings back memories....

Its no longer called hp its LP :cry: I want them to change LP to HP i think the new decimal is fine.

Its fairly minor at this point but what it allows for the future to bring is/could be huge. But i just dont understand why they called it life points, they should have just left hit hit points makes so much more sense.

It's unconstitutional, Bwahaha I just had to say that. :twss: Hahaha :thumbsup: On topic: splitting up the Constitution skill from your actual Life Points has opened up a door for many future updates, like the Constitution boosting armor/potions already mentioned. New Slayer updates - awesome, though I doubt anyone will be using the option to have Kuradal assign Aquanites, lol. I like the update, but why couldn't they have added "HP boosting armour/potions" with the old HP system? :-? Ya i agree i like the update but life points to me sounds so cheazy why not just keep it Hit Points. They stated the reason for change of the 990 max was beginers could only hit either 1 or 0 and could be only be hit for a mininum of 1 which would be 10% of their health.... The only thing i wish they would change is Life points back to hit points or call it health anything but life points what the hell is a life point? really what is a life point? I mean you have 1 life then you die and get respawned. Hit points just make so much more sence cause its the amount of time you can get hit until you lose your life.

31 pages wow... One thing i noticed or what happened to me was i left runescape running when i went to bed last night when i woke up i wanted to check if a rock ended up in my invo. so i clicked to play runescape and i was put back into the game never had to re-enter my password. This could be bad if you forget to log out of the lobby or get called away from the game quickly anyone could just get onto your char. So the one hour thing they said something about is bull cause after 8 hours of sleeping i still went right back into the game.

um actually its kind'a the opposite and ATM you are whining because they made the show with colors =/ Elaborate? I don;t think you understand what I wrote, re-read it. He is saying Jagex has made a change for the better but your one of those people stuck in the past thinking everything was always better and change is always bad. Move on and adapt to the change or stopping playing. I have played for 9 plus years and 90% of updates move the game forward and make it better. Removal of the old style pking being in the 10% of not so good updates...

Ya im in the same boat im at work and cant get to rs home page but i can get to these forums.

Unless its happening as i type it looks like no update today....Or Jagex is going to have to stay late.. Maybe the lower level grunts of Jagex can cash in with some overtime today...

I think Jagex could remove the level 99 cap and after 99 change the xp curve needed for the next level so instead of 200mil xp being level 126 200mil xp could be level 200 or whatever level. Or they could put another cap at say 110 or any number they chose. But id say they would have to change the xp curve to prolong the game.

hexcrest bug?? what is this?

It would be a little too clever for them to come up with a double anagram. My guess is its just seeing/finding what your looking for in something that is much more simple.
