shyouldn't this be locked? :-k

 

 

 

No, because this was the first topic about the update, and also the main update topic.

 

 

 

The crossbow update is making me regret dropping the thousands of bolts I used to have. I just recently made a rune crossbow, and it's looking like it'll be quite a bit better than before. I guess I'll just have to wait and see how it comes out, then make a bunch of bolts.

If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.

I heard stringing has been nerfed?

 

 

 

Can anyone confirm this, as I can't get to a bank for a while :P

Rhahah! And I who bought a Rune CBow for just 20k months ago and has a very nice collection of different bolts indeed! I am the luckiest Ranger in Runescape!

Correct.

there are no stupid questions

just way too many inquisitive idiots

balance is scary to people who like things easy for them

Personally, I think this update is the best in a long time. I haven't seen near as many complainers yet, which is great.

 

 

 

"String-X" will be a great help to fletchers (although I've seen those already 99 complain about their carpal tunnel :P ).

 

 

 

The crossbows finally have a reason to be used (time to pull out those mithril bolts I've been saving...).

 

 

 

If I could access Mos Le'Harmless, I'd totally combine my mime mask with a beret. That would be sweet.

 

 

 

And if I had 75 defence, I'd be rushing out there this instant to get one of those shields. They look incredible.

 

 

 

Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'll go get my pet rock back... "Here boy, go fetch!" :D

Sig credit goes to ThruItAll. :D

FINALLY! When i can use a Rune Crossbow I'll actually WANt to!

 

 

 

I hope the bolts wont skyrocket in price :S

 

 

 

ill just use silver probably, (silver FTW!)

 

 

 

Law running is easier now! Yay!

 

 

 

FINALLY! We can look like those random events! If only i kept my black beret or had a black cav. :uhh:

 

 

 

The new shield should shut some people up for a while!

 

 

 

Time to check the Official forums for any rants!

If Jagex keeps updating like this, I might actually start enjoying this game a lot more. So far, I am happy with this month. In fact, the remaining update(s) could be junk and I would still be satisfied with the month as a whole.

 

 

 

Well done Jagex. =D>

 

 

 

In other news, I'm not sure how to feel about stringing...I mean, yeah it IS convenient I guess...but the speed of it is unbearably slow.

come to wolrd 138 edge noobs andi'll show you!

 

 

 

Thats the guy in the pic, from his post on the RSOF, currently the highest bid for the shield is 2 santas.

 

 

 

Which is my not compledely thorough bid, I told him I might give him 2 santas for it. He goes and posts it on forums lol :P

 

 

 

So what do you people think, should I buy it for 2 santas ? I mean it seems to be quite rare and better then 3rd age which is extremely costly as well....

 

 

 

Advice please :)

 

personally i wouldnt even give him 1 santa for it.unlike 3rd age kites theyre dropped by monsters so theyres a lot more chances of them entering the market.santas wont return so i would spend that muchon a shield

lol thats exactly what i was about to say

I AM GOD

With iron bolts and a rune c bow, black d hide, dark gloves, snakeskin boots, zammy book, archer helm, and glory, I am maxing out at 15s without prayer or pot at 81 range, the new update is pretty amazing if you ask me.

 

 

 

Edit- with steel bolts I've hit up to an 18 with no prayer and a 21 with prayer

 

 

 

with addy and prayer I hit a 26 and 23

 

 

 

and the mith seem to be glitched, every time I shoot with them the special works (the enchanted poisen spec) but without prayer I hit a 20!

Getting another sig

i think its a waste of the cav...

 

 

 

A waste? Why? If you dont like it dont get one, and those that do get one but change their mind can get it unsewed so its tradable again

Quest cape obtained at combat level 83, march 07.

Ohhhhh good job jagex!

In other news, I'm not sure how to feel about stringing...I mean, yeah it IS convenient I guess...but the speed of it is unbearably slow.

 

It is a bit slower, but, for someone with a comp as slow as mine, it's pretty good :P

 

 

 

They just need to make a way for people to go back to stringing each individual bow for those who want the faster experience.

> SELECT * FROM users WHERE clue > 0;

There's no place like 127.0.0.1

There are only 10 types of people

in this world: those who understand

binary and those who don't.

This statement is false.

$DO || ! $DO ; try

try: command not found

this balances out the lack of defence from a fighter's torso, and gives even more strength bonus =O

 

 

 

Meet my new friend.

Now these are what I call "updates"!! :thumbsup:

 

Jagex fixes just some of the small things which I thought really needed updating. :P

Also pretty good for people that don't like clicking too much. As is collecting ectoplasm from the pool.

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

I don't think i've been more determined to get something via a drop before, i need this sheild for CW lol. It's a scorers best friend

Btw, this is Pix's dream, to combine a beret with a Mask.
