August 31, 200718 yr 85/100 High level update, high skills, good drops, shiny new item.. Good for me :) Runescape player since 2005 Ego Sum Deus Quo Malum Caligo et Barathum
August 31, 200718 yr 22/100 Combat level 102. Godsword: 1/100, Another item for the rich to have an advantage over poorer, more skilled players. This is also a luck drop. Bandos armor: 40/100 Great armour, but needs to be more accessable and why is is another luck drop? Dragon boots: 15/100 Woohoo, just after dark bow the high level slayers get another chance to make some very quick money on the first day. They are too red and need more black imo and oh wait, ANOTHER luck drop. Armadyl armor: 50/100 Great, Jagex are finally starting to fix the combat triangle - they just forgot about giving a negative strength bonus. Would be a good ranged armour, just too inaccessable for the average ranger... AND WHAT? ANOTHER LUCK DROP? Steam staff: 10/100 I like the concept, but it is too expensive and inaccessible for what it does, it looks too much like a 1.5k air staff and ZOMG, ANOTHER LUCK DROP?!?!?! Dungeon: 40/100 Great graphics, i just wish it was more layed out and balanced.
August 31, 200718 yr Author it would have been nice to seen a mage update other than a water/air staff. unless you train with lunars or teleport to falador a lot i dont see the use. The Steam Staff is a Water~Fire combination not Water~Air = Mist. Anyway, the Steam Staff is good for a couple of Lunar Spells at least. : And to anyone posting future ratings - please try and leave your combat level..

August 31, 200718 yr 10/100. Combat level 67. Where're all the updates for mid leveled players, hey? I'm never going to use it in the near future, and 80% of the monsters would totally pwn me. I hate it. Plus it messes up the economy with all the new items, therefore messing up my merchanting.
August 31, 200718 yr 80/100 1) Because there just isn't much for anyone 110+ to do there. 2) Because I lost my torso there :( :x
August 31, 200718 yr 100/100 has some flaws but the prizes outweigh them, funnest update i've been a part of Kaizoku
August 31, 200718 yr Armor sets? New weapons? New bosses? Sounds like a 100/100 121 combat, Kinda easy from what i have tried. Really fun, profitable, and it doesnt take long. They did what i always wanted to happen, there be an actual war going on while your there. Monsters fighting eachother, imps vs goblins, bloodveld vs Goraks ^^Click For Monster Hunting Blog (180M+ in drops)^^
August 31, 200718 yr 95/100 The only downside that I can see to this update is the kill count required to enter the boss rooms. For some of them this isn't much much of a problem. However getting 40 Armadyl kills is a real pain in the [wagon]. Also I feel that mages should've gotten more than just the steam staff after melee got Bandos armour and the Godsword while rangers got Armadyl range armour.

August 31, 200718 yr Combat 124 98/100 It's the exact update all the high leveled players are looking for. For me, it's a way to meet some new friends at the bosses, and make lots of money in the process (made over 20m from that dungeon, even with splitting with 4-5 people). I like how you have to get a kill count before you can go into the boss room, and you can't teleport out otherwise it resets. If you didn't need a kill count, or it would just add up, the boss rooms would be flooded with tons of people driving down the prices of the drops alot faster than they have. The only thing I didn't like about it was that dragon boots were made with too low a level of slayer requirement. In my opinion the level should be around 92-93, thus making them a lot harder to get, much like most other dragon items, and keeping the prices high (the current price of 900k is way too cheap for a newly released dragon drop). Overall, one of the best updates in a long time, and I'm very impressed with it. 621st person to achieve 99 slayer on December 3rd, 2007177th person to 99 summoning on June 21st, 2008
August 31, 200718 yr 100\100. made new friends, made like 8m out of drag boots, :lol: i do like the update, i dont see anything wrong with bosses either.
September 1, 200718 yr combat 108 80/100 I still fear jad more =) I always tell the truth even when I lie
September 1, 200718 yr 10/100. Combat level 67. Where're all the updates for mid leveled players, hey? I'm never going to use it in the near future, and 80% of the monsters would totally pwn me. I hate it. Plus it messes up the economy with all the new items, therefore messing up my merchanting. you have to be kidding, mid levels get an update pretty much every single week
September 1, 200718 yr I haven't been in the dungeon but i must say the Godsword is WAY to over powered just for picture i saw so if any pure got there hands on it they could who be too happy... its a horrible let down so 0/100 for the god sword... 99 FM Acheived on Friday December 26th 2008Click for my blog|Mass Effect Discussion Thread|Nation Creation/Create your own Country Forums
September 1, 200718 yr I'd say it was 80/100 at first... 7 pairs of d boots in two days made me happy. Day 3 I did two bandos trips with friends (mostly to be sociable.) We got two bandos hilts in two trips, so now I'm going with 100/100... Want to learn to Nex? The Nex Hunters are recruiting! Click for more information!
September 1, 200718 yr being a 'low-level'' [cb 72] i will give it a 95/100 1. awesome graphics 2. cool new stuff 3. awesome monsters 4. insanely hard If you jump into a river in Paris, you're insane. If you jump into a river in Egypt, you're in denial.
September 1, 200718 yr 100/100 110 cb gotta love how people are complaining about high levels getting updates when we very rarely get updates? I laugh at the kid who is complaining about the drops being luck drops wtf does he expect does he think oh if you kill 20 you get a drop? how can you expect anything other than luck drops these drops should be rare and hard to get.
September 1, 200718 yr 101/100 126 combat best update ever. made close to 90M so far :XD: :XD: and im still going Road To Trimmed Completionist
September 1, 200718 yr 92/100, I'm combat 102. The reason I didn't rate it higher, is that it's actually already possible to solo the boss's, and the new Dragon Boots are ugly as sin. But it's in the 90's because it got me 29m from the Bandos Plate drop I got :D
September 1, 200718 yr @Jordanweb - That's kind of a moronic post. "Luck drop, luck drop.. LUCK DROP" is all your really saying there. What do you expect, that every single monster you kill to give you a guaranteed chance at becoming rich? That everyone should have the best possible gear by spending little to no time there at all? Sheesh. I get the vibe your really just mad because you cannot take advantage of this update.. :| @bean824 - Idiot. Seriously. Low-Mid level players get updates ALL the bloody time. We (Higher level players) get it once in a blue moon. It's unfair that you really get weekly updates, and us 'yearly'. Another person that complains because he cannot take advantage (nor does he seem to want to) of the new update, and only hates is because it 'screws with the economy'. Anywho.. I'm level 123, and although I haven't personally become involved in this update yet. I found it awesome to read about others adventures into there and the new weapons/armours involved. 100/100.
September 1, 200718 yr 95/100 I love the concept and design of the dungeon, but I can only access one stronghold =(. EDIT: 104 combat.
September 1, 200718 yr Cmb: 103 Rating: 95/100 :D :thumbsup: Love this update, most fun to do with friends. I'm just sorta disappinted at some of the boss drops, that's all.. most boss monsters don't drop great things anyway :\
September 1, 200718 yr Combat : 98 Very niec update! 90/100 only 1 ranger in zammy area hahaha Hey Nicrune007 , Whats Your Username? 99 Ranged on 2/6/07 99 Hit Points on 9/5/08 99 Defense on 26/4/08 99 Attack on 14/2/09 99 Strength on 25/2/09 99 Slayer on 13/9/09\:D/
September 1, 200718 yr Combat Level: 116 Well for me personally, I think it was a great update and 85/100 would be a pretty good estimation rating for me. The good things about this update is that it offers a whole new level of gameplay experience, combat and minigame wise for the players. It offers an array of things to do, Slayer, Combat Training, Team-based Killing Trips and the Boss Minigame. I won't mention anything regarding the drop rates since well, Luck factor makes the game unpredictable and all the more engaging. It would be very boring if you knew you'll get an item every specific number of kills. The monsters introduced fits with the Gods' various themes, although more monster variety could be added to make the place feel much more diverse and at "war". Monsters praising their respective Lords could have added a whole new dimensional experience and spice up the Dungeon. In any case, as much fun as the Dungeon is, it could have been bigger and more intricate but then again, lagging in there will just spell doom for the players. Also, more things can be added, perhaps a mini-game sort of duel in the middle whereby players from their respective factions can battle in a safe PvP for kills while the monsters cheers on. Regarding the Boss, kudos to Jagex for an overwhelming sense of awe inspiring greatness to them. Sure they don't make your screen shake when they march or have additional graphics-defying moment where they grab you, but it's still good since they do cower you and fight together. Since I have only tried the Zamorak Boss, I think the Boss is balanced out [Plus it comes with 3 upsized sidekicks], especially for team-based, it promotes the Combat Skill, bringing people out from their Fletching or Skilling routine and creates something to aspire for. But anyways, regarding the boss, the battle is intense and it calls for a strategy and once you've experienced it, the GWD truly becomes a place where you want to be in most of the time. All in all, definitely good updates from Jagex. Promoting more activity and poses a challenging time for many players. * *
