Punitive_D Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I enjoy hunter. This really is the point to updates. One of the beauties of Runescape is that there is something for everyone. When I sit down to play, I literally have scores of choices of things to do. Asking "why create a new skill" is like asking "why add a new ride the the amusement park -- we already have three rides?" Variety keeps things fresh. I think this will be a mini-game, but, either way, I think archaeology sounds interesting. I like monster killing because of the drops. You don't know what the drop will be. Will it be some newb herb or a dragon item? It's like opening a present. Archeaology could be like drops without the combat. Mining is boring because you know what you're getting -- you're just grinding away for ores. Digging for unknown treasure would be like mining with drops. Could be very cool and fun.

flava0falcon Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Ill eat a shoe if Archeology comes out, seriously whats the point :? . And the hints are not really hints except for maybe the Arrav parts. Maybe a minigame like the WoM, but nothing more is this a promise?! :twisted: support new ghostly stuff here.I see RuneScape slowly turning into a sadistic version of WoW..signature your as this use backwards this read to enough smart were you If Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWilch Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 hey now dont quote me saying i enjoy hunter! :shock: im not gunna knock the people who do it, im just sayin...it lacks rewards. i wouldnt mind see summoning/necromancing and since that attack on varrock and tarn's lair ive always had a hunce.

EYOWAREYA Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Maybe as a minigame sure, but as a total skill that would just be boring as hell; digging up things all day. Mining :> I think you've read too far into if this is a skill or not, but it's possible. I mean I don't think hunting is very rewarding, spottier capes and a few other things. So anything is certaintly possible considering the hints they gave for construction. I think if a skill came out June'ish it's good business because it will interest all the kids just coming out of school for the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blouinator Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 seems like a dumb skill, why make it? to uncover ancient autoers and noobs? lol that made me laugh. when i saw bts i was thinking mini-game, but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikerkid Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Wow, so many people already hating this skill even though it hasn't even came out yet.. I see nothing wrong with this skill. Actually it'll probably even be better than some. (*cough* Hunter *cough*) Everyone says this will be a pointless skill shut up. It hasn't even came out yet so how do you know? It'll probably be something amazing. I can think of a lot of skill idea's for it and how it could grow to a bunch of idea's. I hope it comes out.

dude_of_war4 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 acheology sounds a bit far fetched for a skill, but thats IMO click my sig for my blog!!!Thanks everyone for the sigs they pwn!No. Why should i give presents for someone in rs?Most selfish thing I've ever heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anish00b Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 i dont understand why create new skills when it is better to re-invent existing ones. some examples: Mining- stops at 85 no addition Hunter- 6 months now and the highest thing out on that is 65 Agility- some new courses ( not just mini-games that advertise to new players). enough of my rant :P ... archielogy(sp) would actually be a good skill if you think about it, it would be like another indania jones type thing( lol what great films). but we all could be wrong and anticapting something that we shouldnt be anticapating signature your as this use backwards this read to enough smart were you if^^^^read backwards^^^^ http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=113&t=757562&p=6009903^^^^The Best Melee Training Spot In The Game^^^^ http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=786213^^^^The new Bandits^^^^ even i have the misfile craze!!!

onauric Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 There was speculation of this already earlier. So I make the same answer; like mentioned it's a new quest or minigame. :P Rsn: Onauric Combat: 136 Total: 2150+ All quests done since: 3rd December 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nenga Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Like i said in another topic about this, more like a new mini game. Ponies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scopium Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Now I already thought of Archaeology too ( Great mind think alike eh?). It would actually be a really great and fun skill if they make it the right way. But.. I have speculations of another sort of "skill". I'm thinking summoning. Gasp..don't look at me that way, there is lots of "evidence" imo. First and foremost, something about this caught my eye. Wallpaper of a Necromancer Maybe it's the text that goes with it.. Attack on Varrock You can't keep a good necromancer down...or his legion of undead warriors. It looks like Varrock may be about to have a very bad day! (For the Record Necromancy=Summoning but on Undead in a nutshell) Now this is suggesting a Necromancer's "Attack" on Varrock. What I believe this to mean is that Varrock will be invaded by everyone trying out their newly summoned undead or monsters. This could be a branch off of Magic or they could somehow implement it as its own skill, here's another hint to me, YouÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ll be able to experiment with rock samples carted over from the Dig Site Could these rocks be new runes for summoning at an alter in the digsite? Then experimenting will be trying out how you summon new things? Only time will tell. Now Let's look at another hint. Lurk, thesis-stink! Oh, till goofier homonym Taken from the March 30 CE Anagrams. It was able to be decoded into, Look for summoning, the history skill, or something along those lines. Well Museums deal with history, and the museum is getting an update. So could this mean that we are on the brink of summoning? One more hint I discovered, upon completing Dream Mentor, the NPC contact of Evil Dave (via Random NPC) he mentions something about trying to get this Summoning thing down. A small hint, but a hint nonetheless. Also adding 4 new worlds is no coincidence IMO, something big is coming...just when. Now call me "summoning-noob" or whatever, I think I have enough evidence to logically prove my point. Now i'm asking all of you, DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP FOR SUMMONING! It could just be a bunch of coincidences/false hints. I'm just interpretting the facts we have into what I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkblob0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 i really hope it'll just be a minigame, i mean whats the point of having a whole skill for digging. we already have treasure trails so waht else could we get from it?

o_knames Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I'll go on the record saying it's going to be a mini-game. But I would be happy if I was wrong. Adding a new skill could only be good. If it were archeology, I would hope that it would include some Indiana Jones elements. Just digging around in the sand would be too much like hunter, and I doubt they'd do that. Jagex will find ways to interconnect skills (e.g. chinchompas=range). Archeology could use agility, combat, mining, crafting, and maybe a slew of others (think opening scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark). Like I said, I don't think that it's going to happen, but it could be good if and when it did.

Flyingkami00 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Well, when reading the first post I was first intruged, then dubious, then thoughtful. It made some sense but then you went of and it almost sounded like a hobo ranting about aliens. What really attracted me again was the thing the chaos elemental said that you quoted. I think you might have deduced that to a pretty good hint. Also, Jagex never does anything without a reason. All updates that come out eventually lead to something. (i.e. penguin/sheep thing in lumby) It could be a skill. Or a mini-game. Or a quest. Who knows? Also there might be another deduction to the chaos elemental quote. Didn't the gypsie get into the make-over mage's brain and made over something earlier? Was it the surface goblins? Just thinkin... Too keep this going aren't they also doing some stuff to the library? Improved library = old tomes about ancient things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznmidget448 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I think they meant more of a experience in other stats but you could be right. Maybe they are coming out with yet another new skill :-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
