Elf areas updates and Aviansie&Vyrewatch outfits 9/6
I assume the npc elf textures are going to come with elf city itself. Not sure the forests really needed much. Its a quick ninja team graphics update and graphics are honestly the stuff that ninja team seems least equipped for so not surprised. Is it really "main update" material, no. However it probably needed to reboot the servers for this and players generally want to know what the update was when they're booted off so the best way to do it would be a main page post. I don't think it needed its own update but the alternative was holding it back another week for no reason and just having a no update week anyway.

I don't know, I'll have to watch his stream but the quests didn't seem that bad when I replayed it on my noob. Sure, it wasn't amazingly easy but that would just be boring.

I'm replaying the older quests on my noob. I'm really surprised at how well most of them hold up. Been playing since late 05 so most of these I barely had any memory of but they were quite interesting. Some do have a different tone, like zamorak seemingly being evil for no reason. I even enjoyed Salt in the Wound puzzle wise and the pillar ending wasn't as bad as I remembered so idk. I think a lot of them are still enjoyable even though the game's tone has changed, and I think some of the humour has carried through throughout the years. With the recent change to multi-log rule you can buy bonds if you you don't want to pay for a new membership for a noob account.

The Mighty Fall - June 2nd
oops, and I looked it up to see how to spell it too and still messed up

The Mighty Fall - June 2nd
He was designed to be evil, he wasn't meant to have redeeming characteristics. Sometimes people are just bad. Also, he didn't kill the God just because he could, it seemed implied that the myths mentioned that Jododu Otaku ascended by killing a God and Bandos intended to do the same. So he killed Jododu for a reason.

The Mighty Fall - June 2nd
I think it works better without the 15th honestly. It works right into the chosen commander prophecy and everything from the quests, and works better as the end of the memories.

Give Melee some equivalent cost so that all styles are still equal. Repair kits or such that can be smithed.

Make a twitter account and let him know you disagree. Post on the forum thread http://[Use Quick Find Code]/c=v3QZ0X8D514/[Please Use QuickFind Code]?16,17,594,65387677 . While it may not change anything, they have been listening to feedback on these dev documents so maybe if enough mention they expected a pickaxe and hatchet they'll change it.

They mentioned in the podcast that the idea is basically for streamers. So they can show off beating certain bosses with the crystals activated and such

The point behind the research quest is that it would be the starter quest for the Elder God series. You won't need to have done the FotG questline to start it, and as long as they steer it away from mah they can really just start the questline new since we don't know too much about the others. I'm guessing the post quest FotG content is reporting our findings to Azzy and maybe also reporting other stuff like tzhaar bookcase or fighting the dragonkin jas curse in OoaK.

What if the new crystal chest only worked for key halves you find yourself. Maybe when sold they would change states and only work on taverly chests.

Jagex Stance On Multilogging - Changed
No, I'm saying he is so incompetent I wouldn't trust anything he says. He does not count as a 'legit' jmod in my eyes. Btw, pretty sure it's a 'he'. Pretty sure it was a miscommunication. Artemis seemed to think you were directing "This kid should go back to moderating runezone because he has no idea what he is doing." at Hedgehog

Ninja team focus
Force everyone to switch to e-mails for log in, like they do for new accounts anyway

Jagex Stance On Multilogging - Changed
Only issue is that this allows a person to run many accounts at once and earn more than one legit account could. The rule was never about botting and it shouldn't be now.

From Mod Osborne in the topic Elf City Design 1-Changes http://[Use Quick Find Code]/[Please Use QuickFind Code]?16,17,824,65372977,goto,1 "Hey everyone, Here is a rundown of the changes we are planning based on YOUR feedback on the first part of the Elf City design document: CHANGED:- Solomon. We are investigating the removal of Solomon. - Chronicle cash-in NPC. We are removing this character. The best chronicle cash-in NPC will remain the one you unlock after World Wakes- Golden Shattered Heart. There is a complete divide in the community about whether the Shattered Heart should have a grace period or not before we remove your trimmed completionist cape from you for completing it. Our current feeling is that we can subtly rejig the content so that there are short-term goals that can be achieved before you lose your cape. There will be more news later as this is designed.- Diango. An elf version of Diango, with some additional content (most likely a permanent holiday event portal) will be added to the Tower of Voices based on your comments. - Titles. More titles will be added, and some will be extremely exclusive, to reward those who go that extra mile.- Saradomin-looking elf clan. We will be changing the small logo of the elf clan whose symbol looks like a Saradomin star. This will be something deer-like.- Crystal blossom timings. Rather than being a completely binary, with the blossom either appearing or not appearing, the crystal blossom will be harvestable at any time, but there will be periods when it is more rewarding. This gives a reward to those who wait for the right time, but does not punish those who are not. There was a notable amount of feedback on the following, but we will not be changing them for the following reasons: NOT CHANGED: - Xuan. While some of you wanted him removed, he is useful for recolours, cashing in of Jack of All Trades and some others. We will make sure he's not annoying and intrusive, though! He will also be an elf version of Xuan, not Xuan himself.- Lodestone. Many of you wanted the lodestone removed, as you believe that teleport spells have been devalued, and/or the elves would not make themselves so accessible. While I understand these comments, the city is still exclusive by its nature, the content needs to be accessible or it is hugely devalued, and we are doing our utmost to make sure that teleport seeds and other transportation methods still have real value in the city.- Crystal look of the city. Concept art can only do so much in communicating how a finished city will look. Our environment team have done a great job in giving the city a pearly sheen, which you can't see in the concepts. Also, there will be transparent crystals throughout the city, to show the raw elements that then harden to form the marble-like walls you see in the concepts.- Tower chimes. Some of you wanted unique instancing or a dedicated chat channel, but that would bring more attention and work to an inclusion that was always meant to be fun and emergent. Keep your feedback coming in, and we'll keep you up-to-date. More design documents are to come, and you can expect more posts like this! Dave O"

I enjoyed shattered hearts as well. I enjoy stuff like shattered hearts and ports as medium length goals. They aren't 99's or 104m goals but I won't be done in a week either. As far as trim goes, I don't really mind losing it. With most colours, especially my preferred purple, silver seems to work better than gold looks anyway so I often use my keepsaked untrimmed cape. I understand both sides of the debate on this and wasn't invested in either side winning.

Using runes up in runespan to gain bonus exp while spanning? This way the rune supply gets even more of a demand. Meanwhile, switch all rune drops to tokens that allow you extra runes when you runecraft that rune?

Possible living Naragi? In the elf city podcast, Osborne said that one elf clan isn't purely elves. We have a Naragi title and the blue owl cape looks like a Naragi face...
