How easy are the ascension bosses? Could someone like me beat them with momentum?

Well done Mish! Just apply here Tim! :D Also bit bored of RS... Only logged in to do flips and a bit of DG today... CBA with Livid atm. So mostly played Skyrim/Oblivion and texted Kie hah. I'm seriously actually talking to him more than I get to talk to my girlfriend. Bromance before romance! Also got this last night so counts as doing something towards comp right?

I remember your post about that and I find it a lovely thing to add to the combat system! Now with the Battle of Lumbridge coming soon, wouldn't it just be awesome to have actual armies in ranks, impenetrable because of the use of spears and shields, causing your troops to attack from the flanks? :P I wish so much that they could do this... But let's face it. It's not going to be anything like that. Hell most of the battles - ie. Whiterun - on Skyrim are meant to be big, grand and epic, considering that the Imperials and Stormcloaks are massive in terms of numbers (or so we're led to believe) - whereas the reality is there's a couple of wooden barricades that take 2 hits to down and about 25 or so soldiers you have to kill. Don't forget Bethesda have much better graphics, artists, coders, and the like. Hell, not even Ubisoft with AC3's new Anvil Next engine managed to make a "playable" army battlefield just yet. With Jagex I think it's going to be a watered down version of the RotM battle, because don't forget, everyone's got to be able to do it. Or then again... A conquest like scenario where we move groups of troops etc? Anyways It'll be a few rounds of monsters or whatever considering who's trying to take it, and perhaps we'll end up with Skyrim like maps on tables in throne rooms etc in order for us to assess the sway of power.

1) 1 set of Drygores is fine, you don't need any more than that. 2) Each have their own uses. Also make sure to use Drygore PCS or a similar FC to find the up-to-date pricing of stuff. Rapiers are used mostly for KK. Longswords are expensive because they're aesthetically the best - Fashionscape. Maces are also expensive (though the offhand not so much) due to the +9 prayer bonus and its speed. Plus maces are the best if you momentum at all. 3) Overall you wont go wrong with any drygore you pick, the difference between them is something like <1% according to the PC FC's and any other advice place where this topic crops up. The only bit of performance is MHM's +9 prayer as mentioned. So grab Drygore Maces (unless you want OHL or OHR for fashionscape) as they have perhaps the best utility out of them all. 4) Nex > Automaton/Glacor. But it depends how your bank stretches. I think Nex stuff is only slightly better anyways, but still better.

Cue all the BS claims of full Torva, Drygore sets, Assbows and Seismic Wands in graves.

^ Essentially it. Something is horribly wrong with Vorago which has been causing constant world crashes ever since they released him this time yesterday. Some of those crashes were people DDOSing Dardan and Woox. But most since have almost certainly been because of Vorago. Hell at 1am last night Jagex booted 50k players from the game and rolled back 5 or so minutes for some reason.

Stev I [bleep]ing love you. Stev for #1 RS God. Totally looking to join this guys emissary. Ezkaton of Stev... Think it has a nice ring to it. HYT have decided henceforth to be the centre for the Cult of Stev. ALL HAIL STEV.

Seems lots of people are claiming a rollback of ~5 mins.

Because we're clearly ready for RS3! :D Next generation RS... You play it virtually in your mind with no restrictions because you can't ever get into the actual game.

I just text you asking about this! As you just said... 50k people just got booted from game. Also client wont load currently, nor will RS website for me.

Stev, Draz and I love you. Seriously giggling at this. Ohmy.

Curious, what did he drop? :P

119 is up and down more than a yoyo.

Well he is the living embodiment of the world right? So DC'ing everyone is kind of like his equivalent of being a telenoob? So glad to see that Chris L used the pushed back date to iron out all those engine problems etc that he mentioned yesterday...

I've said before to friends that Jagex are screwed either way they play this: A. They release it now they make the same mistake they did with EoC and launch a thing that is still in beta and is being forced out because no one plays the beta anymore (or at least only those who can handle RS3 play the beta). B. They don't release it this month, then they shoot themselves royally in the foot and lose out on the biggest and best point in the gaming year in order to release RS3. Hopefully the Battle of Lumbridge will be workable on Java client etc. Also I'm one of those people that want to sit and wait with this content to find out the best possible outcomes.

Nex gear market is craycray atm... Lots of flips to be had.

TBH you're expected to cope like I cope on 10GB/month.

IRL update. Just got my transcript of results through for this term (minus one module which is still to be submitted this week). 67 and 68 in my Thomas Becket module puts me on a 67 overall for that, and a 73 in my Seafarer essay puts me on a 73 for Anglo-Saxon Heroic. That 67 is the first module I've had that's totalled under a 70 since end of 2nd year... I'm slightly disappointed. Anyways need a 66 in my last module for me to average a 70 overall for the taught part of my M.A. Swings and roundabouts eh? And before anyone says I should have spent more time learning and less time Maxing, I wrote the Becket and Seafarer stuff during the Easter break when I wasn't really playing RS at all. The only mark that may be affected will be the 2 for the last module... But will be pulling out all the stops for that now to try and get back over 70...

Hoping this is gonna happen, gives me 90 minutes to play around with it after release before my lesson. \:D/ Such an addict :P Can't play at home so you play at college hah! Ah well... 40 mins or so til we see if Urza is right :) Will be grand... Wish I was home for it!

IDK if I want my "Least Harmful Harpy" title changed to "#1 Bad Harpy" or not... If it was it would then go with my members title and siggeh and blog on here... WAT DO.

Holy Damn. Grats on Livid! I must admit I'm jelly... I'm only almost half way hah.

Well now... That is interesting. Maybe I should change the poll to be Comp Cape now! Haha! :P

Hmmm to buy Virtus or not to buy Virtus that is the question. I know that if I buy it, it's more than likely that Vorago wont drop stuff to attach to Virtus and when I come back home this evening I'll make a loss selling it back. BUT if I don't buy Virtus I know it'll be Sod's Law that stuff will be attached to Virtus and I'll never be able to afford a piece again. Decisions decisions... V: 29-0/38+/35-6 Are the ranges etc btw according to the Nex and SS status V7 on RSOF with the last update being 11:23 (9 mins before I made this post).

Haha it has a nice Abbey there though!! And sad times for me Polar :( Livid update: 350,550 points. 75k and I'll be half way... Still, 50k to go tomorrow after trip out so I can get spell #5.

No ALG, this blog is already almost as bad as mine. 1/10 would read again.
