[Suzanne_Vega]

Sold my pl8 and mage sets on ge max, 5 seconds later someone is offering 1m for the pl8 set.

 

 

 

:thumbsup:

 

 

 

:mrgreen:

 

 

 

I love this game :P

[Cha0sx]

Omfg I had the worst luck at tormented demons.

 

 

 

Me and my friend couldn't figure out whether to cs or ls because of drag claws being low.

 

 

 

Instead it got screwed over for both of us(mostly me, always me :cry: ).

 

 

 

The dragon lump was ls'd to him and the claws where cs'd and we got 74k ea!

 

 

 

Wow, Jagex hates me.

[dead_man_1]

ARGHHH!

 

 

 

This quest is frustrating.

 

 

 

In the catacombs i dropped one of my pairs of elite black armour and there's no way to get more....except buy them from people.

 

Anyway i have put max on all of it in the GE for a day now and it's not buying.....sooo.

 

 

 

 

 

Someone want to lend me a pair of elite black armour? I really just need it for half an hour.

 

PM me or add me in game : rsn = smavey.

 

 

 

I will love you forever :D

 

 

 

still need to borrow the set?

[Gravy]

Credited to do this and 6 other quests when I quit.

 

 

 

Kinda disappointed, was way too easy even without a guide. :/

 

 

 

Just my opinion I guess, felt it didn't live upto the name "Grandmaster," if anything did, just the QP requirement.

Elite armour can not be "lent" to anyone.

Yeah I know, by lending I meant that hell give me some money for the set and after he doesnt need it he would hopefully sell it back.

[walka92]

then quit your [bleep] and get 65 defence, hell get 70! or better yet, 99! you think your "cool" keeping your decence low but your not. your an idiot. theres so may more things you can do once you have a good defence that your an IDIOT to keep it so low. i thought everyone had worked that out by now, but obviously not

 

Why would I want 2 accounts with high defence, it seems pointless?

 

well then quit your [bleep]ing about not being able to complete the quest coz of your low defence. if you want to do the quest, swallow your e-pride and get defence higher and od the quest, or stop complaining and dont

[Deal3r]

I recorded the final fight of the quest and the killing of certain NPCs that you are able to kill after the quest. Please do not watch it if you don't want me to ruin the 'surprise' lol.

 

 

 

[hide=]I vidded the final fight of the quest where your 99 skills got boosted to like 255 =p hit a 84 with dds poke and a 132 with 86 range less than decent gear >.<

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here a vid of soloing tormented demons =p these guys drop dragon metal parts, including parts for the dragon platebody. Didn't get a drop tho, but then again..I only killed 15+ :c

Just a heads-up, you can now be assisted to make the Dragonplate body, and they'll be lowering the Smithing requirement to 92 sometime next week.

What an over-reaction - cutting the smithing requirement in half.

 

 

 

Level 99 - 13,034,431 xp

 

Level 92 - 6,517,253 xp

 

 

 

:lol:

Not really, as I've said before 99 smithers are not going to want to assist people as they dont want the XP. 92 smithers on the other hand would like the extra XP.

[Blutters]

Why can't you use a cheap spell and just use Magic and Ranged and only have to protect from Magic?

 

Or instead of using the relatively slow Rune Crossbow, use Dragon Darts with the current method? Can these demons be poisoned?

They had just as well retroactively change it from a grandmaster-level quest to something lesser.

 

 

 

Yeah, sure, level 92 smiths will slog all the way over to B.F.E. to assist for 2000 xp, when they could get 2000 xp faster by staying at the anvils in Varrock.

 

 

 

Any chance of dragon plate being a true grandmasters item just got flushed for the sake of getting more plates in circulation more quickly.

 

 

 

Cut in half. I got 12 mil+ for my lump. I'll buy the entire plate for less than that in a few months or sooner.

[Smavey]

Hey everybody! I would like to say that Dead man 1 is officially my hero for helping me out! I can now finish the quest without having to spend 4 million!

 

 

 

Thanks again man.

[Makoto_the_Phoenix]

What are you talking about? The only real requirement of Smithing in this quest is that it be at 69 or beyond. Making the Dragon Platebody is extra, and while I don't necessarily believe that it should've been lowered from 99 to 92, I still believe it should have been lowered.

 

 

 

[besides, the quest is still damn hard, with or without 99 Smithing.]

Me and my friend are now even, while he logged for a sec and I soloed and got this:

 

 

I wasn't there when he got his, so yeah.

[Bauke]

 

Thanks. What should my inventory look like?

 

It's quite simple. Just take your ordinary melee equipment, perhaps a pray pot if your pray is low (but I doubt it's needed. I can protect melee the whole fight and use piety with it). Next to that take some food (monks are good enough) to cover for the hit that the dragon'hai mage will inflict on you. He hits once in 20-30 seconds or something, so nothing to be afraid of.

[Cavi]

Ok, ive finished the quest so ill give my 2 cents.

 

Ive heard you can use the elite black armour to fight the tormented warrior (the one from summers end) but its still better to range it.

 

The Balance elemental can lower all your combate stats with his magic attack so it would be wise to get a super restore instead of prayer potion. He always starts attacking with range and when he is nearly dead he switches to melee.

 

If i remeber any tip ill post it.

[AlexDT]

 

Sometimes world 2 scares me.

 

Any idea what these guys are using as junk? I don't really see much reason to keep this useless armour.

Yeah no reason at all to keep an armour set that is black but has stats comparable to rune and looks really awesome

...Yes, exactly. I might as well sell it and buy barrows armour, or maybe even bandos. The elite black armour doesn't even look that great.

[Peronix]

I'd sell my elite black armor and dragon claws I luckily got as a drop from the demons; I'd really love to rip those world 2 narbs off. Stupid trade limit... :cry:

 

 

 

Is there actually any way of gathering mills worth of junk very quickly? Or is the concept of time = money just completely foreign to these junk traders?

best way to is to string maple logs imo, you can make cash faster than you can make junk.

 

 

 

 

 

Ill buy all your junk+ d claws if you want.

The best junk-making I know of is about 1m/hour... it largely depends on updates. Chiseling granite was extraordinary while it lasted. Currently I'd say go make natures. :P

[Smavey]

So I just beat it and anyway here are my thoughts.

 

 

 

The quest was average. I thought the puzzles were pretty straightforward and actually borderline really easy. And I thought the quest was a good length. And the biggest let down to me was the final boss. It was a joke. I mean I had a LOT of trouble beating the final boss to recepe for disaster and dream mentor, but this one was a JOKE! I used 4 monkfishes!! That's it!! I'm like lvl 100 combat and i had a tortoise helping me out and anyway those things must have INSANE defence because the guthix balance elemental didn't even scratch it! Anyway the elemental pretty much only attacked my turtle so that's why it was so easy, but it died really fast. And the demons were just fun :D (hitting 120s is a good feeling :D)

 

 

 

 

 

And now for the rewards.

 

 

 

 

 

HOLY !!!!!!!!!! I can't even explain how i'm feeling right now.

 

 

 

I went from 68-73 summoning aka i can finally have an ex ex parrot!

 

 

 

And....i just got 13 mill for my dragon piece.....I have rarely had over 1 mill in my existence in rs so I don't even know what to do with money like this!! I'm in shock kind of. I mean...i already bought a whip....maybe i'll get some new armour other than full rune lol. Maybe a santa hat?

 

 

 

But yeah the reward was nuts. and i'm SO MAD i dropped that stupid elite armour! :@ :@ ...that's 6 mill i just wasted....( i still have my dorg ones...should i sell them or hold on to them for the sequel?)

[DarkX99]

Quest was great - more the rewards than the content.

 

 

 

I liked the quest story-wise; I'm going to miss Duradel though. :(

 

The rewards were insane - I received 2 RC lvls, 2 Con lvls, and 1 Summon lvl. :thumbsup:

 

Sold the Dragon slice for 11.7m. I should have waited another day for an extra Mil but oh well. #-o

 

Also sold my Black Elite Set for 1.2m.

 

 

 

Overall, it was a great quest. :
