Sounds like an awesome update. Not sure I got much time to play it just yet. Doubt I will get a task quickly and dont really wanna waste points. Love the firecape requirement lol. Love the song thing. If it works properly. (Not like the previous update they did to the song player...) I will try later and find out what my options are.. I dont think I need this full slayer helm desperately.. So wait for my own drops. Be awesome nice if it effects the cannon but its doubtfull. Detail thing is great for some people I guess.

No its too generic a game from first glance while I hear you have to pay for stuff which is something I deadly loath.. Play plenty of other stuff though.

Meh that costs more than what im already paying. :sad: Not that I mind lol. Still a good offer!

I hate the warnings and signs everywhere. The biggest risk for me is losing untradable items, mainly quest items, which I have to spend a bit of time recovering. Thats the only risk I really worry about if I ever died. Either that or disconnecting and not being able to reconnect for ages. It took me a while but the wild is no longer a scary place. When they added revs I knew they wernt very dangerous but I still had the built in feeling of 'wild' and to be carefull. Nowadays I dont care if I carry hundreds of millions. I dont even care if I wearing 20m and decide to make a drink while penguin hunting in the middle of the wild. Which is a shame. (If I die I dont lose anything do I lol) Killing nomad was seriously without risk. You appear near to your grave if you died. I think there is a bit of adventure.. Aslongs as you dont need risk to be included.

Not related to the so called earthquake but at about the same time today I achieved this! :rolleyes: :thumbsup: First skill to 99 twice! :thumbup: V Newbish V

Interesting but they could of tried putting in agility shortcuts. Like at aquanites for just one example. Atm you can use two shortcuts and still have to run around alot. One in the middle direct to them seems like a good spot for a new shortcut. I dont ever fish those fish .. But im grateful as it would just clog up my inventory lol. (Since no experience for them.) Dont mind some extra ontop pickpocketing though.

Does killing jad = a Grand Master Quest? No it doesnt. Do high requirements, great reward, long interesting story line, possibly puzzles and perhaps a big fight along the way = a Grand Master Quest? A good one does. However its all down to opinion. It seems a good quest but alot of things let it down and imo doesnt deserve the highest quest ranking but the second highest. Mainly all due to requirements and a reward thats best with already easy to get xp. That isnt insulting the quest itself. As for Marks ramblings its nonsense to presume its a grand master due to the fact people havnt completed it yet considering there is a boss fight at the end. (Which is his point but nonsense imo) I didnt get around to killing Jad for like 3 or 4 YEARS. Just because I was lazy and didnt like combat. However I killed him fine on my first try. At like average combat before summoning. I wasnt very high at all. I think my range was either 86 to 90ish and my combat was just average. Yes I read guides though but thats because it wasnt a quest but a minigame. I had to learn it.. So my point is. Anyone who hasnt done it yet might just be preparing or waiting until they have enough time to be able to try multiple times. The same when I cant be bothered to do puzzles as I know I need to eat and go to bed. Perhaps these people just got lives to attend to before they invest money into supplies to kill this quest monster. Doesnt suddenly mean its a grand master.. A insanely difficult puzzle that takes 6 months to solve doesnt suddenly mean its a grand master quest. On its own its just a very difficult puzzle. If killing a big fat monster is all a grand master quest needs then they should make Jad give quest points. So a quest it is and a great quest but why its considered one of the most difficult to achieve due to a bad [wagon] monster is beyond me.

dubt it acording to tips soul war calc are prayer 3,510 xp/zeal @ Level 91 250k ish exp for my prayer and maby 300k tops for ur prayer? here are an link for the calc. http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?swc Meh. I see it gives less xp for prayer compared to the easy ones then. (edit: Cheaper that is) Thanks to the link. I really dont remember much about zeal points. ..Oh and I just looked up how many zeal points a abby demon needs. 85. So even if I do the quest that isnt enough points for it. *bangs head* =p I get the feeling that this quest is more trying to encourage people to play soul wars rather than about a 'grand master' quest.

I sure the quest is interesting an all but for something thats labelled a grand master quest those requirements arnt very grand master like. As everyone is probably thinking too but just adding my thoughts. Will comment on quest once done. I have absolutely no idea but I hope that if 95 def = 500kish then that also means 96 prayer gets me around the same xp in prayer.. (Which unfortunately doesnt get me a level heh.) Or I might get an abby pet or something with the points.. It just disappointing on the requirements front.

I dont really make money anymore so anything new I get is from skilling or random rare drops. Plus other stuff like dailys. In the beginning I made first few hundred through smithing and other skills. Nowadays I dont worry about it and spend it as I dont have as much time to make more like I used to. Once you got it it tends to replenish itself somehow. Probably from skilling and random drops.

And this completes 2009! Coincidently its exactly 100 levels since last year. Blood runs deep quest complete - 96 prayer and 138 combat. (Picture says 96 prayer and 138 combat) Left is end of 2008 - Right is end of 2009 Now to start 2010! Wonder how close I get to maxing out and what new skill will be.

Hello! I havnt updated in ages due to when the forum went offline for like forever. After that I just didnt get back into the habit to post. Now im going to be updating my blog again (Aswell as alot of sorting out,) and first of all here is a recap of some of the stuff I have done in the last two months. Some things I have left out which arnt as significant to save myself time. >94 Hunter<

No, they cannot. Are you a parent? I highly doubt it. If I knew any parent who played video games for 15 to 16 hours a day on a consistent basis, I would call the authorities without hesitation. Spending 16,000 hours over five years playing a video game is a pretty strong sign that the person is an addict. LOL. Really. And how exactly is that "possible"? Yes, it is. It's a huge waste of their time. There's nothing wrong with time-wasters -- as long as you engage in them in a way that is *balanced*. When you are spending 60+ hours a week wasting time, it's a pretty sure sign that your life needs rebalancing. Tell me -- if someone in your life spent 9 or 15 or 18 hours every day drinking and then lying around passed out on the couch, would you be concerned for them? Grow up please.

Cant really say 9 hours average is that extreme for a record. That means 6 hours of sleep + Time to work/study. And people do get holidays and days off too! For some peeps they can play while working. So say about 11-14 hours a day is possible. A home parent can probably manage 15-16 hours. For those who dont work then its possible to do 16-18 hours. Thats 6-5 hours sleep and time to do other things between. So all in all. 9 hours a day even if it is for 5 years plus isnt that extreme. (I am betting most people come home from work and watch tv? Sleep. Repeat. Well they could simply play rs and very efficiently at that.) They dont in reality play 9 hours a day but more probably play 16-18 hours on days off then less on other days. That means their free time. If they choose to play runescape in their free time then thats their business. I be more concerned with 'health' and what not if it was an avarage of 15+ hours for 5+ years as that seems less likely or alot more difficult to fit in work/study. Although possible it seems less plausible to maintain. At 9 hours thats a breeze. Mix and match on different days. Of course its pretty much all your free time but if someone loves doing it then it isnt a waste of their time. Its not like its hard to fit in 30 mins of excercie atleast 5 days a week either. Not to mention its possible to do both at the same time while training slow afk skills. I expected a record to be alot higher by someone who is either rich or maybe got some medical reason etc for not working but at 9 hours a day if could be someone who works and spends all or most of their free time playing RS.

Awesome. If not a bit silly not just making slayer work that way everywhere. Makes it possible to unblock certain tasks that are no longer nearly as horrible. Which in turn makes it possible to block other tasks I dont like doing. Bigger numbers! I wouldnt mind them adding a non multi Kalphites section too. Havnt killed them since I first began slayer.. I guess hopefully there might be better 10x streak points too. And 50 for that matter.

200 pounds would be good value for life time membership. Thats basically 5 years then whatever else is free. I think it deserves a few extra features too when joining up though. Atleast a sub forum. If I had that offer a few years ago then possibly I would of chosen it. I not so sure about today.. Even if I am playing in 5 years I just dont think I need membership the whole time of it to be worth while When I first got membership and had alot more stuff to do I think I might of done. Then I would have rest life for free to come and go. I think jagex would make alot of money from this offer tbh from people who just quit so its not a bad idea. The people always have the option to come back and be members too.

Its 'Father Christmas' :thumbdown: :rolleyes:

Love nearly every minute of it. Its like chocolate, chips, dr pepper, a good book or procreation you might sometimes get bored by it but it never fully loses its appeal. (Btw those are treat foods. I dont only consume them and they havnt ruined my life or anything lol. :rolleyes: )

OK... Not very good for 91+ Rcers.. I dont think its a good update as it has taken one of the most difficult yet rewarding goals in the game away. I feel lucky I was able to feel the satisfaction of achieving double nats actually as everyone from levels 90 below probably wont. With all the monster drops supplying people with millions of gold skilling for money isnt as good as it used to be. Nearly all skills cost money to train efficiently so ruining one of the few decent skilling methods of making money isnt really that great. Yet again people are shafted to kill stuff or use slower methods. However I think its more fair to allow 91+ and other runes to gain a chance of crafting more. The new high level spell stuff is pretty cool but I dont really use it myself. The best part of the update is the big bones into food. :thumbsup:
