Romy Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Well, first of all, yes I do know about the old vine-event thing. So here's my idea: Certrain skills could have a random event that teleports 3-4 people. [hide=Woodcutting]Any 3-4 Woodcutters could be teleported together if all of them cut the same tree. They will be teleported to a forest with enchanted trees, (if trying to cut any of them your axes will fall off to the ground). To the north there's a leprauchen crying. When you start talking to him he gives you an enchanted bronze axe (disappears when you're teleported back), and explains he had promised his big brother to make something artistic for his mother's birthday. south of him will be a shape, with very little holes in the ground (it could be a 4 cleeve, a rainbow, a coin, etc). Your job (with the rest of your team mates), is to cut those trees with the axe you received, put each of the logs aquired in the holes, and light them with a tinderbox found on the ground (requires 1 Firemaking and gives no experience), then look in the Leprauchen's cauldren to receive your reward. Possible rewards. I'm not sure about this part, I have 2 ideas: 1.A part of a Leprauches suit (3 possible parts- hat, top and bottoms). 2.50 noted logs of the tree you were cutting. If any of your team mates did not do anything, then any of those who do get twice the exp (and 3 times if 2 players did not act, etc). If anyone of the players did not do anything, he/she will receive no reward.[/hide] [hide=Mining]Any 3-4 Miners on a 9X9 square, mining the same type of ore could be teleported together. They will be teleported to a rock cavern, and to the South they could see a King Golem (with a rock crown). By talking to him you receive an enchanted bronze pickaxe and explained that the king needs to motivate his citizens for they are tired of their lives, he will ask you to mine the enchanted clay and build up a golem statue (40 soft clay needed), and he needs you to mine the clay, soften it (there are 20 bucket respawns and a sink besides him), build up a pile, and craft it to a statue (requires 1 Crafting, no experience received), with the hammers and chisels that he gives you. Talk to the King Golem to receive your reward. Possible rewards. Again, 2 ideas: 1.A part of a mud outfit (3 possible parts- tiara, top and bottoms). 2.50 noted ores of the same type you were mining. If any of your team mates did not do anything, then any of those who do get twice the exp (and 3 times if 2 players did not act, etc). If anyone of the players did not do anything, he/she will receive no reward. Also, there have been another idea for Mining by Moonshadow: For the mining one, how about a cave in where the players have to work together to mine their way out. There could be loot along the way. Also, a treasure room with a choice of a bag of gems (you wouldn't know what you would get till you open), an dusty miner's journal (exp reward based on total exp in the skill), or a unique drink that has 4 sips that raises your mining level by 5 temporarily. Kind of like a supercharged dwarven stout.[/hide] [hide=Prayer]Any 3-4 people burying bones (all across RuneScape) at the same time (any type of bones), could be teleported to a church. To the north there is a Saradomin Priest, sobbing. When you talk to him, and ask what's wrong, he says he's afraid he may have sinned. He claims to have had Zamorak revealed to him in his dream, telling him to destroy a Saradomin altar, in he had done that. He asks you and your mates to help him set up bones around a Saradomin statue, so he could pray to him. the bones or on the church's second floor, collected from a pile (you can only take 1 set of bones at a time). Pray to the altar south of the Priest to receive your reward. Reward. Prayer exp (ranging from 50 exp at level 1 and 8K exp at level 99). If any of your team mates did not do anything, then any of those who do get twice the exp (and 3 times if 2 players did not act, etc). If anyone of the players did not do anything, he/she will receive no reward.[/hide] [hide=Fishing]Any 6-7 Fishers could be teleported (by Evil Bob) to an island, in which they must make a meal to his likings. Special baits, and rods could be found on the floor. You must then fish 15 fish of each of the 4 types: 1.Micefish. 2.Milkfish. 3.Furfish. 4.Fish of evilness. All of the Micefish must be sliced (10 knife respawns around Evil Bob), All Milkfish must be squeezed (just right click 'squeeze'), all of the Furfish must be cleaned (using them on a sink) and all Fish of evilness must be cooked on a range besides Evil Bob (requires 1 Cooking, absolutly no chance of burning, and gives no Cooking exp). Once the meal is ready, you must talk to Evil Bob to be teleported back and receive your reward. Possible rewards. Once again, 2 possible rewards: 1.50 noted fish (same as the type you were fishing, in case you're fishing with multiple choice fish, you'll get 50 of the best fish you can fish (at your level)). 2.A part of a cat outfit (3 possible parts- ears&mask, top and bottom). If any of your team mates did not do anything, then any of those who do get twice the exp (and 3 times if 2 players did not act, etc). If anyone of the players did not do anything, he/she will receive no reward.[/hide] Also, please note, all of these events have bankchests in them, for banking items (for inventory space). Post your thoughts, ideas and the like. And please, any criticism with a following explanation of why : . Credits: Moonshadow for offering an alternative idea for Mining. I1lll for reminding me about inventory space. Support list :thumbsup: : 1.Jenove 2.Balazeal 3.Moonshadow 4.D_V_Devnull 5.zaaps1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodArgon Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 We need less random events, not more. Maybe if this would be more like a distractions/diversions type deal, then, ok. But not random events. They are annoying enough, let alone be paired with noobs to get it done. That would take twice as long. 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not random events. They are annoying enough, let alone be paired with noobs to get it done. That would take twice as long. Well, first of all this replaces another possible random event (for example, instead of getting the Evil twin random event you'd get this one). And about the pairing with noobs, I edited it so that if any of your team maters does not do anything, each of those who did get 2X reward.

tyluke Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I don't support the idea of making for random events because they are unnecessary, but these ideas doo seem cool for mini group quests or mini games :D only 2 skills below level 50 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Runar Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Jagex once tried a "group random event"... called "Tangle Vine". Vines would surround all players in an area and everyone (NPC's also) would lose HP if they tried to move. It was removed because many players didn't know what (not) to do and ended up dying.

So I take it you never even read my post? Well, first of all, yes I do know about the old vine-event thing. That's the first sentence there... :shame: :shame: :shame: :evil: EDIT: And by the way, that event is risk-free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balazeal Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Group Random Events eh? Well, misery loves company. Care to explain? :-k :-k Support, if your going to get a random event, might as well get it with a few others. The rewards seem rather attractive as well(particularly for prayer). Though only support if this is as a replacement (rather than an addition) to the current random events. 100% F2P99 Defense, Tuesday February 10th 200999 Attack, Tuesday May 26th 200962,189th to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a replacement in the terms that you might get one of these randoms INSTEAD of another one you were supposed to get, not completely deleting a different random event.

Sid Icarus Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Some of the events require too much inventory space; getting them with inventory full of magic logs / adamant ores / sharks could be painful. Also change the cat outfit so it could be worn with the mask from Treasure trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the mime mask and berret for example?You're going to miss the rewards if you don't have inventory space. Also, there's no guarantee that any of the other players are going to help you. I mean that maybe the cat set should contain paws (gloves and/or boots) instead of ears so the full set could be worn with the mask. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the bankspace, I guess I'd add some sort of a bank chest, for banking your items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your pretty much increasing my random rate by 5 times.... 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
