Esper_Jones Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 With last week's new engine update, many were incensed about one feature in particular - The diagonal walking. Since last week however, I haven't seen a single topic about any of the new features of the engine. Has anyone tried the fight caves or dagannoth kings with the new update, and if so how were they compared to before? Has anyone incorporated the hotkeys into their playstyle?

Esper_Jones Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 yes jagex is makign it much harder for prues to get fire cape and for people to lure monsters That's what was said since last week - has anyone actually tried fighting the kings or getting the fire cape? How much harder was it than usual? Jack of all trades, master of thieving. 259th to 99 thieving. All stats 75+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deiophobus Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Why is it only harder for pures salim? Wouldn't it be harder for everyone? I'm not a dker, so i wouldn't know about that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogspoons Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 They said they couldnt release more poh rooms untill they had a better engine, I think. Anyway now we have 5 more so it probs was to do with teh engine. CANE Just to be different. Think about it. A freaking Dragon Cane with a Dragonstone gem.The spec will simply your character equiping a glove and beachslapping the enemy, who will break down and do the Cry emote for 10 seconds straight.

Yes it will be harder for everyone, but especially hard for stupid pures because of the tiny defense levels they usually have, they'll be getting attacked a hell of a lot more. Hotkeys (aside from the ecsp-inventory key) have been a waste of time as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonni Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Its hard for the pures because its damn freaky when those fire giants waltz into the safe spot at the waterfall :XD: dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Dag kings: Hybrids didn't see much of a problem. However, our mage did get Prime on him more than a few times while trying to snag Rex. Walking too far into the center ^.^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Citizen Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 When I went Dking several times, my mage(s) had a bit of trouble getting Rex into the safespot. Also, it appears that Prime spawns closer to hybrids when we are about to range. It also appears that Supreme walks closer than he did before when ranging Prime.

darkjab Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 After the update I decided to try my 7th attempt at the Jad. I have never gotten the cape before. 7th time lucky :P Diagonal walking causes no problems for getting 180's into safespots, non at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwreeTak Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I have tried using the hotkeys, but I don't like them to much. So I don't use them. And the diagonal walking style I haven't even noticed until now. Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aneron Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I was a little bored today so I took a venture into the fight caves (my gear was only slightly nooby :P). It is a lot harder, but still very doable. The main differences are that the 180s are harder to safespot (in order to use an east<->west safespot they have to already be directly east or west of you. The same is true of north/south safespots). However, that isn't terribly much of an obstacle. Much more significant are the new difficulties with luring. I didn't go far enough to necessitate luring myself, but obviously you'll end up with a lot of monsters heading up to the safe zone. It used to be that only monsters that spawn in the center could reach you, but now those that spawn in the southwest and south can reach you as well. I suppose it's still worth it to attempt to lure, but it is less effective now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacksimon Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Supreme can now see you in the southeast moss safespot. And attack you. Its very rare, but I had it happen to a partner once. Luring rex is now done in 2 parts instead of one. I'm not even going to attempt fight caves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemis_42 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 The mage in my Dag King group didn't have too much of a problem luring rex to a safespot. He said it was a bit annoying when you first try it, but it just takes a bit of practice and then you shouldn't have too much trouble.
