February 10, 200917 yr 10th February 2009 - Soul Wars A mystical portal has opened in Edgeville, leading to the lands beyond Tirannwns western shore. Any players who venture through will find themselves at the site of Soul Wars - a new, members-only minigame involving fierce combat, territory control and your Slayer skills! If youve played Castle Wars you will be on familiar ground with Soul Wars. Like Castle Wars its a quick, fun, team game that you can play on any serverbut its three times the size! Soul Wars is also a safe game, so you dont have to worry about losing any of your favourite gear. Once you enter the Soul Wars area you will meet Nomad, who controls the battlefield with his unfortunate minion Zimberfizz. He will show you the workings of the Soul Obelisk, how the giant avatars function, and the basics of territorial domination. Being something of an adventurer, Nomad is prepared to give rewards to players who get involved: sharing his charm collection, offering combat and Slayer training, and even bringing back the souls of Slayer creatures you may have found on your travels. Mod Rathe and Mod Chris L RuneScape Developers --------------------------------------------------------- Summary: Where to start Soul Wars: Enter the portal in Edgeville and speak to Nomad. Requirements: None, but decent combat levels and Slayer are recommended! --------------------------------------------------------- In other news You can now collect sand from Bert at the same time every day. The 24-hour restriction has been shortened slightly so you won't have to go later each time The rewards for the Seers Village Achievement Diary have been tweaked and increased; for details, please read the original article. The hard reward for the Karamja Achievement Diary will now grant free access (when worn) to the Brimhaven Dungeon. Additions have been made to Quick Chat that should make it easier for players to converse with Player Moderators, and ask any questions they may have.
February 10, 200917 yr Dammit, no specific details on how the game works in the news post... now I must wait till I get home to really see how good this game is I guess :( Started free trade with 1.5m cash. 2 weeks later, have hit max cash 2x.

February 10, 200917 yr New way of getting charms sounds nice :) They said last week that the Slayer experience reward won't match the xp gained on tasks, so no worries there, yet :P Bringing back the souls of slayer creatures definately sounds interesting, maybe new monsters to be assigned from current slayer masters, after unlocking them in the minigame :) Sig And Avatar by Tripsis - 99 Slayer Blog - My Pyramid Plunder GuideOwner of Fire Cape since 28-09-2005 - 426th to 99 Strength

February 10, 200917 yr Less than a week ago I reached 99 slayer and now they introduce a way to obtain slayer exp that seems much more fun. I truly hope that the exp rates are much lower than average slayer tasks, or I'll soon get responses from people '99 slayer means nothing no more, you just got it by using the minigame' :(
February 10, 200917 yr Further west than the Elven lands? Is this on the map? Yup :o Wow that's a Western expansion if I'm not mistaken. Maybe the Eastern lands will appear one day then... Trust the Gene Genie!
February 10, 200917 yr Rewards You will receive a number of 'zeal points' based on your performance in Soul Wars, at the rate of 3 points for a victory, 2 for a draw, and 1 for a defeat. You can trade these in with Nomad for a variety of rewards: * Experience You can claim experience in Attack, Strength, Defence, Hitpoints, Ranged, Magic, Prayer or Slayer. One zeal point is worth a set amount of experience depending on your level in that skill. * Charms Charms of any colour are available, the number you can claim depends on your combat skills' levels. * Other Most options here are new Slayer pets, resurrected from remains you bring along. If you bring a stuffed or unstuffed trophy of a crawling hand, cockatrice, basilisk, kurask or abyssal demon, Nomad will then supply you with a pet of that type. See Summoning - Pets for more information. You can also purchase a 'gamble'. The gamble option will grant you a random reward - there is a wide range of possible rewards, but you'll never know just what you're going to get. So receiving say Abyssal head will mean Abyssal Demon Familiars?
February 10, 200917 yr I hope this gives good slayer exp =S The reason why i stopped slayer at level 91 is because i just got tired of people invading my training areas =(
February 10, 200917 yr Darn it, I was expecting some new armour/equipment. Looks like a good update anyway, I'll have to check it out. :) CLICK THE IMAGE TO GO TRY SHARK ATTACK DANGIT.
February 10, 200917 yr Less than a week ago I reached 99 slayer and now they introduce a way to obtain slayer exp that seems much more fun. I truly hope that the exp rates are much lower than average slayer tasks, or I'll soon get responses from people '99 slayer means nothing no more, you just got it by using the minigame' :( You shouldn't care what people will say. If this mini game is fun, just play it. I know I will. There will always be nay-sayers who will rightfully say that new methods of training are faster than previous ones, but that's how the game evolves. I don't care if you cooked your 99 by clicking every fish, what matters is where you stand now and how YOU feel about it.
