    Skill Capes & Diango Improvements Patch Week

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Aaaand guess what? Just like I predicted, they brought back the old model and didn't bother to fix the clipping issues. So, great. Now it will probably never be fixed and I'm going to be stuck with my character's tassels clipping through her breasts, like, forever.  :thumbdown:

    In all honestly i think they're afraid to make changes now, even a fix like this could offend some people that likes this.

    The w66 we pay we say clipping issue return parade, some players will riot about any change in this game.

    Finally defeated Araxxor today after 9 attempts and then proceeded to do the rest of the bosses. My current challenge is Nex and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do enough DPS for the blood phase, went in with an all range set up initially and the past few attempts I've tried a range and melee setup using Ports gear and dual asc/drygores. Any advice? I'm pretty poor at bossing :( dreading eventually trying to do Kalphite King, Vorago and especially Rise of the Six!

     

    Edit - Ahh there looks to be a team I can hit up over the weekend for Nex and the Kalphite King, huzzah!

    Nex is a team boss :-P

     

    I would be able to help you on the weekend if you like. I'm usually on the sc chat

     

     

    Cool beans, will have to see what mental state I'm in after my shift at work but certainly looking to work in a group! I just got destroyed in the smoke phase, think I've hit my limit for the day haha!

    For me comp represents tasks jagex wants you to go through to get the full experience of all their updates, i for one had to dig in a lot on guides on several bosses and get up to date. It felt like doing jad when he had just been released, it was a nice experience ^^.

    I think it was right to put all the bosses into the comp req, it motivates people more to try new bosses.

    And now because of soul reaper im going to try kiln again which i havnt done since close to it's release :)

    Hah, i think i was on teamspeak when you were doing your Rots kill with Charles and the gang :D

     

    It's very nice of someone to lead you through the battle once like they do to give you some experience in how it works, they have a very nice motto: "As long as you try to give an effort".

     

    But i didn't do rots with Charles, i did Varago. Managed to fix my mic now so i might join up again on the channel for a talk at a later time ^^

    Araxxor, Twitch Integration and Lobby Update

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Araxxor is here, and he can't wait to tear you limb from limb in a solo or duo boss battle to the death!

    When we polled the sort of boss content you wanted earlier this year, the message was clear: there's nothing you like more than grappling with a beefy combat boss.

    Araxxor won't disappoint, as you choose your route through his lair, dodge hazards, and finally face the beast himself - on your terms.

    There are regularly shifting layouts to the lair, and loads of amazing rewards - including level 90 two-handed weapons and creepily cute spider pets.

    We've also integrated Twitch streaming into RuneScape, and spruced up the lobby.

    Read on to find out more, or log in now and head south-east of Port Phasmatys to the Araxyte Hive.

     

    Getting Started

    Get to Araxxor's home by heading south along the eastern coast of Morytania from Port Phasmatys.

    Once you're there, enter the Araxyte Hive and you'll find a webbed-over entrance to the boss-fight area.

    Click on it, and you'll have the option to enter a non-instanced version, or to create/join an instance. You can also limit the instance to just one person, if you wish, or set a pass number to restrict access.

    Note that only one person can enter the non-instanced version at a time, per world.

    While there are no hard requirements to enter the lair (except any imposed when starting an instance) it's strongly recommended that you have at least level 90 in each of your combat stats, and the best gear that gold can buy.

     

    The Fight

    As you battle Araxxor, you'll need to lure him through various areas of the Araxyte Hive. There are several routes to choose from - of which only some will available, changing every few days - and Araxxor will have different abilities depending on which route you take.

    Araxxor_News-28133930.jpg

    Araxxor's encounter is in your control - it's up to you how you choose to engage him. Moving through the paths and dealing with his mechanics will influence the difficulty and how the fight plays out. Experiment, and find your preferred spider-wrangling strategy.

    There's no keeping a big spider down, either - each time you defeat Araxxor, he'll come back bigger, badder and angrier than before, for the rest of that day. As such, defeating him several times in succession will become gradually harder. The difficulty resets at 01:00 BST.

    It'll also become significantly more difficult if you bring a friend - he'll be tougher, and his attacks will hit far harder. You'll need tight-knit teamwork to survive Araxxor's onslaught.

     

    Rewards

    First among the amazing rewards on offer are level 90 two-handed weapons for all three combat styles: the noxious scythe, noxious longbow and noxious staff. These monstrous tools of destruction are the finest of their kind and come with new special attacks - they look spectacular, too.

    You'll put them together by combining a spider's leg, plus one of three arachnid body parts received as rare drops.

    There's a terrifyingly cute spider pet too, also obtainable as a rare drop. Once you have it, you can unlock new versions the spider as well, by completing special achievements while fighting Araxxor solo. Click on the cocooned corpse outside Araxxor's lair to find out more.

    Both of these are part of a lucrative drop table - designed to be more rewarding even than the QBD. Taking down Araxxor is no mean feat, but it's certainly worth your while.

    Note that if you're fighting as a pair, you'll each get your own loot. There is no competition over drops.

    Enjoy!

    We can't wait to see you face Araxxor. To give you a chance to tackle him on your own, our wiki will include no detailed information on Araxxor's mechanics until the11th of August 2014.

    Fight hard, and join the discussion on the forums.

    Twitch Integration

    With the release of Araxxor, we've integrated Twitch streaming into the RuneScape interface. With a click of a button, you can now broadcast your RuneScape experience on Twitch.tv, with no need to run anything else in the background.

    First, you'll need a Twitch account. Set one up - if you haven't already - and log into it via the Twitch tab in the Community interface.

    Then enter a stream title, select your stream resolution and bandwidth cap, decide whether you want a microphone and/or webcam enabled and you're good to go.

    The interface also allows you to quickly open the most popular RuneScape Twitch streams, and a new moveable window lets you chat with your own Twitch viewers while you stream.

    Be careful not to push your streaming settings too high for your connection and computer to handle. Try lowering your graphics settings and resolution if you have trouble.

    For help getting started, take a look at our video guide:

     

    Start streaming now, and have fun!

    Lobby Refresh

    The RuneScape lobby has received a fresh lick of paint this week.

    Firstly we've brought its visual style in line with the rest of the RuneScape website. It's bigger, clearer and more readable than ever before, with essential functions easily accessible. You can also nominate an additional favourite world.

    On log-in, you'll land on a 'welcome' screen, where you'll be presented with the latest and greatest RuneScape content - handy if you've been away from the game for a time.

    Let us know how you get on with the new, spruced up lobby system over on the forums.

    Just a guess but some people in this thread would write RIP in peace?
    If you are going to use abbreviations you need to know what they stand for. 
    MMO = Massive Multiplayer Online
    MMORPG = Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game

    I'm not a huge transformers fan so i doubt i'll be trying this out any time soon... unless there's a transformer made out of corn.

    You haven't learned how to use the abilities properly

     

    In his defense, some abilities have a long duration to complete before you can move your character. Off the top of my head some ultimates and range-basics come to mind. I don't think you get hurt during those pauses though? If you do, I'd definitely understand the frustration.

     

    You can cancel out long duration abilities by using another ability, i use this to sometimes build ad.
