I really really really want to skip Calculus and sleep, but we have a quiz. (we have a quiz every day)

They can help the situation they have made by allowing you to assist for more than 30k exp per day. However, after the initial 30k exp, you gain no experience through assisting.

Then why are people complaining about them being removed?

Some goals aren't all fun. Just like going to college/university. School isn't fun. Exams and homework aren't fun either, but it gets you one step closer to your goal of having a fulfilling life. Achieving those goals will not make you any happier. Real job > McDonalds Happiness is relative. And in my relative spectra, working at McDonalds is pure HELL.

I'm still holding on to my Fury.

Maybe maxing will become more respectable now. I'm playing this game for fun not respect. And if you do not find Runecrafting fun, then why train it? (with effigies or conventional methods) People have goals in this game which range from maxing to completionist cape, why is this such a hard concept to understand? And if they are true and sincere about getting that goal, then they will just have to suck it up and train that skill that they hate. I mean, I was furious when they removed the trade limit (a huge update just like this effigy nerf), but I moved on. I got over it, and I suggest that you do the same.

I posted this a few pages back.

You can get like 1 an hour by spamming a cannon and steel titan on cave crawlers. Or you could kills TDS or Glacors for like .6 per hour.

I am sorry but I just don't feel you have a grasp of how significant this update is for most people. No I do. I know that people spend 10 hours a day spamming cavecrawlers just so they don't have to train agility and runecrafting.

People stopped training skills legitimately once effigies came out. Now they are butthurt that they don't have an easy way out of training skills. No... It's Jagex's fault for making the game function this way. It makes absolutely no sense that I now have to go find someone with the required skills to open my effigies. This is a stupid update. I put the blame on Jagex for creating Effigies in the first place. I am disappoint about the update too, but all I see is Jagex fixing a mistake they made long ago. Except it doesn't fix that. People will still use effigies, they will just spare skills like slayer for after their 97 effigy skills. So it just makes more troublesome, without solving anything. You have heard the phrase "Don't fix what isn't broken" right? Effigies were pretty broken, and they were fixed. I agree that effigies turned this game in the wrong direction, since I think skills should be trained by doing them. However, my point is that this didn't fix effigies. I can still train my rc level by effigy-scaping, I just can't hoard effigies before I get the skills to do them. If they lowered the xp an effegy gives, made them more rare, or even took them out of the game, then it would be fixing the problem they created. But they made it to where you can't go from 91 to 99 Runecrafting in 1 day using effigies.

That's ridiculous, just like you're saying 'effigyscapers' are 'butthurt' I could say you are, because you are a bit unlucky with effigy drops. I'm not sure how many people get effigy drops at reasonable intervals, but it's definitely much more than 5%, given the popularity of Assist Clan, w117 Daemonheim and the number of people hunting cave crawlers etc. This isn't about whether effigies should provide less xp. It's about the way of nerfing them. This way, everyone who has an effigy right now has to dump it ASAP to get the better xp rates. It basically penalizes you for playing the way the game was meant to be played. Because playing to achieve your goal is how the game is meant to be played. I got my last effigy in November. Wanna know why? Like MOST people who play Runescape, I do NOT farm them. My life of Runescape does not revolve around spamming cavecrawlers so I can level agility. I could care less about effigies because I hardly ever get them doing the things I enjoy in Runescape. I'm sorry if you are still mad and all about Runescape not being fun anymore because it just got a little more challenging for you.

I'm interested in this as well. I'd love to visit Tzhaar, but this is what my computer says to that....

Which will work just fine until the next time they add a game-changing high level update to a previously terrible skill without looking at whether the skill is worth training or not. It's like Dungeoneering for people that hate dungeoneering: They're going to train it anyway because the rewards are necessary to be able to compete everywhere else. I still don't have a rapier, and I find that I don't need it. I still don't have juju farming potions, and I find that I don't need it. I still don't have a packyak, and I find that I don't need it. I still don't have dreadnips, and I find that I don't need it. The list goes on.

Somebody agrees with me here. I just think that the playerbase has forgotten that the game isn't just about combat skills.

The problem is that nobody knew what would happen with Effigies a month or even a few months after their release. Not everyone is an Effigyscaper too, so about 95% of players are unaffected by this update and won't even know the difference.

People stopped training skills legitimately once effigies came out. Now they are butthurt that they don't have an easy way out. Because the alternative is Runecrafting. You could take the "Vezon Fenrak Approach" to skilling. "If you don't like the skill, don't train it."

I ain't even mad. Now all of those Effigyscapers can learn to play Grindscape again.
