Dizzle229 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Of the quests that Tip.It has rated as hard, I have done Dragon Slayer, Heroes, and Lost City. All of them were easily completed at level 60. 55 for Dragon Slayer. Others have said the same. Yet at level 71, there are several medium level quests that are completely out of the question for while. Lost City and Heroes are rated Hard and Troll Stronghold is medium? It just doesn't make sense to me. Discuss. Get back here so I can rub your butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illusi0n Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 agreed... maybe instead of just "easy, medium, hard" put in a recommended combat level? ie dragon slayer: 55+ also the ratings would be decided on what non-combat skills were needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAm314159 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Actually, just to be sure, you could just try out the quest for yourself and see whether the quest is newb-standard, easy, medium, hard, master, or -bleep- difficult. :-k Just check the quest guide for any monsters that you will have to fight. You sure don't want to lose that suit of Barrows armour or an Amulet of Fury while attempting to defeat a monster from hell. :?

Owned_Nex Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 depends on ur combat lvl... But I agree, I found that almost all of the "hard" and "master" quests were just LONG(like legends) Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat.

Alg Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 perhaps you should try one without a guide... that tends to make it quite a bit more difficult I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i agree some quests marked hard were just extremely long. You're right, although Tip.It lumps together 'experienced' and 'master' quests under the same roof.

mrmyk Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Are any of the quests really challenging? JaGex probably rates the quests on how difficult they are in comparisson to other quests anyway so stuff like Heroes would be harder than other. Also, some of these quests ARE quite difficult to do, WITHOUT a guide so try without one and see if you think it's so easy.

ctim Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 From experience I have found that the quest ratings are just as much rated for difficulty as they are for length. Example: a quest that requires you to wander the world with low levels might be rated harder then a quest where you just go in and kill everybody in sight quickly. 91% percent of the people polled said they were liers. The other 9% lied to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameboypen Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 The are rated accurately if your a lower level player. Which many people who come to Tip.it for guides are. 'Higher levels' come for the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locutus_Of_Borg Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I actually don't use Tip.It anymore for the Quest Guides. I use one where it has the difficulty and the amount of time it takes. Some guides on Tip.It rate quests hard, when this other guide has 1 star on difficulty and 4 (out of 5) on length.

Bxpprod Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 The "difficulty" of a quest is a qualitative variable. That is, instead of being able to label it accurately with a number (quantitative), we have to make a subjective statement about the difficulty of the quest. As with any subjective measure, it is heavily based on personal experience/thoughts/feelings etc. Just use it as a guide, rather than gospel.
