Money Wasted Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Omg thats sooo...EPIC I'm definately getting 85 slayer :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat666 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I can't see how pets are fun sorry. I know if I had that much zeal then it would go into XP. If I was maxed stats then yes, but until I have 99 it would go on XP. Actually I wouldn't spend that much time is SW as other training methods are better but meh, I will play it for fun.

3rkid Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Cat666 is just discouraging people not to get the pet so they do not get 85 Slayer and he can have the whip drops all to himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langer Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 The abyssal minion is the equivalent of a skill cape, but for much less exp. It's purely for show and "achievement". The dialogs are pretty cool once again from Jagex, but not worth the hassle IMO. What would be pretty cool though is to use the ring of stone near a mine with the minion following.

cat666 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Cat666 is just discouraging people not to get the pet so they do not get 85 Slayer and he can have the whip drops all to himself. Not at all. If you see my normal posts in Help & Advice I actually encourage people to train via slayer. My argument here is the work involved in getting an abby demon pet is nowhere near worth the end product. Get to 85 slayer. Get an Abyssal Head (I'm 94 slayer and not had one) Get 85 zeal (This was worked out at about 20 hours yes?) That's a phenomenal amount of effort. 85 slayer everyone should get anyway, it makes sense when training combat, but then camping at demons for a head isn't advisable. I believe visages are more common. Plus I'm a true believer in slayer for XP so camping is out of the question. Then you have the whole Soul Wars game. Yes it's good for a time killer but it isn't a serious way to level. I'd rather spend the time doing something for more XP. However if I did get that much zeal (and had the head), I couldn't justify getting the pet when the XP I could be getting towards to a skill would be huge. I admit Jagex have excelled themselves with this joke, it is very very funny. But you know what I've seen it now thanks to this forum post. What is the point in me wasting all that time and possible XP just to do it myself? Sure it shows you have 85 slayer, but so does a 99 cape, and you will get a lot more kudos. Plus when would you have the pet out? There is a familiar suited for every purpose which could net you cash etc. Maybe the Grand Exchange, but then it would get lost in the spam...

Because it is fun and not everything here on TIF need to be serious. We need some fun content as well! And also, this is an amazing discovery and a great thing. It's a proof of Jagex's humour which makes out a big part of RS. And this forum is all about RS, isn't it? Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a familiar suited for every purpose which could net you cash etc. Maybe the Grand Exchange, but then it would get lost in the spam... Alot of people play Runescape just for fun, and to them Xp/Gp is just a byproduct of playing the game. If they consider it fun to set a goal of getting a high level pet they can show off to friends, there's nothing wrong with it. Its not a waste of time if you think you will get enjoyment out of it. Some people see levels as a way of enjoyment, while some see getting pets or other things like mini game rewards as enjoyment. You cannot say one is better than the other, as Runescape is about fulfilling personal goals. Just because your goals are in xp, dosen't mean goals for certain items are worthless.

I completely agree. I really hate when people seem to think that if whatever your doing isn't giving you good exp/cash its worthless. Well, this is a game to play for enjoyment.

Dexek Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Well, here it is. I did try alching the whip from the demon, and it gave 0gp. It took about 12 hours for the points, and 5 hours for the head. All in all it was a fun challenge. I think I'll get a pet Kurask next. It's the only one I haven't seen yet. : Ohh, and on a side-note.. what's up with this? I've been seeing these glitches all over. I've been told it was something to do with penguins. It looks like a crazy little monster carrying a dark bow. No need to complain to me about my choice in reward either. Based on the xp I would get, I deemed the pet worthy. :thumbsup: PoetryIndexed Picture 1Indexed Picture 2 Killed my maxed Zerker pure April 2010 Rebooting Runescape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the xp I would get, I deemed the pet worthy. :thumbsup: lol I do that graphic glitch all of the time. Since it's now out in the open and everyone seems to know about it I guess I could just tell you before the fun is fixed by Jagex. 1-Get a Games Necklace, Penguin Suit and a Varrock Teletab (Not sure what teleports all work) 2-Go to the Cold War quest iceberg and go inside through to the agility course 3-Stand near the river opposite of where you see the black and white checkered starting line 4-Put walk on and click the starting line and when you get on it use your Games Necklace to teleport to Clan Wars (Should already be right clicked while walking) 5-(You should be human now) Continue the course until you get back on land 6-Do Turkey emote 7-Continue the course until you get past the last icicle that's on the ground 8-Only go up one space on the cliff with the ice spots on it and stay there 9-Teleport (Lots of things cancel the glitch afterwards so be cautious of what you do. By the way this is why you can't explain in game how to do it lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totalpwnage Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 So we should definitely have an organized event where we all take abyssal minions to the abyssal demons and walk around in there and hop worlds just for lulz. Come on, it would be epic. xD On the downside of this update, every whip drop is gonna have to be right clicked now so that we can see its not fake -.- else people are going to go to "omg whip drop" threads and be like FAKE NUB THATS A FAKE WHIP FROM AN ABBY MINION!!! (of course, with grammar that's a TON worse >.>) Started free trade with 1.5m cash. 2 weeks later, have hit max cash 2x. PvP drops: 359 Brawling Gloves, 11 Vesta's Longswords, 41+ Zaros/Ancient Statues9 Dragon Full Helms, 3 Dragonfire Shields on the old PvP loot system Brawler guide is being finished!

On the other hand, I'll be happy to get my first whip drop, though I won't post it all over the place. 85 slayer and a 1 mill+ drop are always nice.
