:thumbup: :thumbup: I don't necessarily feel the need to annoy people, and actually have only used the bull roarer once outside of Legends quest. I'm just protecting my Freedom of Teh Interwebs. I see no reason why someone should be punished for making a noise, especially when people can easily just press a few buttons if they don't like it. Seriously, in the time that it takes to shout at someone for doing this, you could have turned off or adjusted your sound to your liking, and with much less effort. And RS=/=RL. There is no mute button IRL. If someone is this easily annoyed, it's a wonder they survive on the internet at all.

The sound is no more annoying than any other sound in Runescape. In short, CRY MOAR. I find the sound peaceful and it helps my concentration. And I agree, chat should be removed in all high-concentration areas because it causes a lot of lag in W2 and the GE for ppl with junk for computers.

AMG OTM dont post quest spoilars!!1@ I really hope the strange power was a hint to this week's update. I can't see any solid connections between it and the twitter hint, nor between it and any current storylines.

Most likely guess so far. Or they are going to release some article next week telling us how it will be released sometime in mid-2010.

you might be a few hours late my friend You are very perceptive. I won't bother with those screenies unless i find something new I guess.

It seems I need to stop guessing. As Sherlock Holmes says, it is a capital mistake to theorize before you have all the facts. One of my mysterious contacts is claiming that NPCs have new dialogue, including Seers in Seers Village and people in Witchaven, and also the mage in the Abyss. I'm going to try to get some screenies.

Nice eyes! Upon closer examination, that appears to be a Zaros army from the shadow realm. BWAHAHA MY LORD RETURNS AT LAST

[hide] am I the only one who finds the slug storyline really boring? especially with those embarrassing children chat heads (that are quite scary actually) OK can you tell us where you put MHL and why you have her brain? opinion=/=crazy troll it's the only quest storyline i really dislike lol yeah that's a good match, and if the witchhaven villagers' chat is related then it looks like this is what we're in for. doesn't really explain why jagex are making such a big deal out of it, and the event happening across f2p too. unless they're just trying to disguise the trail (i.e not making the event happen only to people who've completed slug quests so far) For my third random guess in under five minutes, I am going to say that the slug queen was successful in her plan of making one slug for every human on Gielinor, and now we are all infected. Except for me, because I was eating dinner. [/hide] They are eating your brain. I am sorry for your loss.

No they didnt face Gwd, They face north east of the Wild (check the picture on first post) Looking the way of the wilderness volcano AMG dragonkins=eastern lands=SAILING@ But seriously, AMG Dragonkins?

Anyways, that graveyard is glorious! How the hell and why the hell did they do it though? The world is ending, it is only logical to commit suicide so we can move on to Runescape heaven peacefully. I herd they has cookies and SAILING.

Oh, darn, why am I never on to see these things. Looks like a hint towards next week's update to me. If it is true that everyone turned to face GWD, then I believe our mysterious door will be opening very soon :thumbsup: Hopefully this is the new dungeon with the death mechanic, and also the "from below it devours" from the CE letter as well. On a slightly related note, I believe the new death mechanic will be on a timer. The area behind the Frozen Door seems to be underwater, therefore, it's only logical we will have a specific air supply, and must complete our goals in that area within a set amount of time.

Well, that's what you get for playing a beta. Although IMHO they should have found a QA team instead of pushing away their interested players.

I would also like to join at some point, if the game starts working that is :wall: stupid thing is stuck at the loading part every time I try to login. Edit: Alright, I'm giving up for now. It was working earlier, so it can't be a problem with my computer. I restarted, still got the same screen. I'll just wait for them to work out the bugs.

I made an account, but either I'm doing something wrong or the game is. The screen just stayed still, and didn't change when I clicked the blue squares to build. So I refreshed and loaded it again, but now it just freezes at "Loading-100%". In other words, hai im a noob and wat is this?

I agree. This actually seems to be the direction Jagex is going. If you look at recent high level updates, you have to actually have the level to benefit from the update. Jagex also said something about how people who were used to being able to buy the highest level equipment are going to be frustrated, which leads me to believe the high level smithing update will work in the same way, so high level smiths will be the ones with access to the armor. Of course, this is a little extreme. Maybe the armor would also be a drop from a boss?

It was my understanding that it would be used in the weapon slot, and would have bad combat bonuses. So you would need an extra person to come stand on the sidelines and record.

Lol suicide against the law. What are they gonna do, cuff the body? This is really ridiculous. Yes, Jagex should act on IRL threats, but only those that are serious. I don't want to worry about the cops showing up at my house if I make some sarcastic comment about my failures. Of course, we don't know the actual wording used in the situation.

Quite a cool item, but I agree that it shouldn't be released instead of a real content update. It's great for all those video makers out there, but the majority of us are more interested in the game itself. By the way, vegeta, what does Jagex say about its power level?

WTF. I also dislike smokers, but only when they are actually smoking. I walk past a hangout for smokers when there's no snow on the ground, and the stench is just terrible. Plus they all have strange voices and obnoxious laughs. Also, those kids who walk around the school with their three friends thinking they're all tough, when really everyone thinks they're [wagons]. Oh, and people who read some commentary, or watch a youtube video, and then consider themselves experts on the subject. Especially if they then go around pretending to know what they're talking about, when really they are saying something ridiculous. Seriously, just go be idiotic somewhere else. Post it in a youtube comment or something.

This. I really cannot understand the complaints that this quest was lacking in plot or storyline. This quest has huge implications for future Mahjarrat quests. +1 We are exposed to a completely different outlook on the majharrat storyline. From the dialogues we can conclude that Lucien is probably Nomad's old master, and sent the dark knights to kill him. This makes us ask whether nomad is actually our friend, if he is Lucien's enemy. This might be why he said, "You have doomed this world [to Lucien?]". The only reason he attacks us is because we intrude in on his lair, at the request of an imp. No plot? Think again tbh. This is exactly what I was trying to say, without accusing people of skipping through the quest. And on the topic of alliances, Lucien could actually end up being our ally depending on what he plans to do with his power.

Good luck. and lmao at MHL's response.

You missed the point. It wasn't because the quest had a lacking plot that we were upset. It was because it was a Grandmaster Quest and was lacking plot. GM quests should be up to their nipples in plot. Perhaps. It seems to me this has a lot more plot than you are giving it credit for though. It was a bit on the short side, but it seems to be just the tip of the iceberg. Anyways, the alternative would be to make it Master, which would make it an extremely difficult Master quest, so they would have to lower the combat stuffs, which would just make it lame. Plus it's important for Nomad to be powerful in this quest cause they can't randomly make him powerful in a sequel when they decide to add a nice story to it. I'm sure Jagex was having this discussion before the release. It really comes down to people's opinions on what a GMQ should have. It is my opinion that the story potential combined with the difficulty of this quest make it Grandmaster, but I understand why you would think otherwise.

All these complaints about the story need to be real. If you read the words, you would have noticed that this had much more story than "Cook's Assistant", and many other quests, it just left many questions unasked. In addition, this has huge potential for development and sequels, where as Cook's Assistant barely squeezed out a loosely related sequel. I liked RFD, but tbh that story was just sort of random. Nomad's Requiem will play an important role in the Mahjarrat storyline, and we can definitely expect to see Nomad and Zimberfizz again. Just because the quest created new questions instead of answering old ones doesn't mean the story was lacking.

I read it, but I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say. Are you saying humans mislead themselves by claiming to be better than other life forms? Or are you saying all our satisfactions and desires come from instincts that are present in most animals? Both are true. I think it's also important to point out that many things that give us satisfaction are really artificial. If you had been taught your whole life that green beans are the most delicious thing in the world, you would find them satisfying. On the topic of self-interest : Of course everything we do is self-serving. There really is nothing that does not have some motive. Even if I were to go do something random, it would be because I wanted to prove you wrong, or mislead myself into thinking that I had done something that was not self-serving. In doing this, I would just be proving the statement right.
