I'd much prefer 26 chaos, 4 sweetcorn seeds or 2 gold charms to 20 gp or a cosmic tali.

 

 

 

I thought there was going to be the option of a small amount of exp?

 

 

 

Anyway has anyone opened 2 or 3 boxes in a row? Just to check if banked boxes build up in value per each used.

It stays the same, the only way to change the rewards is by getting a higher skill total.

 

 

 

It would be interesting to see how much difference there is between 2,000 and 2,376 skill total though.

The option to choose a costume point, can anyone tell me if this is for existing costumes, or is there something new?

 

 

 

Only the old costumes and you have to do THAT random event to get points for that costume. (So no getting mime parts from frog rewards)

Retired random events

 

 

 

Some random events are no longer active, which in most cases is because the person (or creature) responsible was considered to no longer be up to the job. Most of the guardians, for example, now spend their days in the Enchanted Valley (which you can get to using the fairy rings), while some of the more unsavoury types, like Cap'n Hand, reside in Port Sarim jail. You'll still see Dr Jekyll from time to time, dashing to the Varrock apothecary in a desperate bid to keep Mr Hyde in check; and if you're in Karamja to the south-west of Brimhaven, you may come across the strange plant, which still produces rather excellent fruit. The Drunken Dwarf will also be seen on occasion, staggering about in an erratic fashion. If you talk to him, and he takes a liking to you, he might treat you to a kebab and some beer.

Screenshots in the RS manual show the Sandwich lady in a cafe and Miles/Niles/Giles sat at a desk. Are these "removed" too, and by removed I mean moved to enchanted valley and wont interrupt you during fighting etc.

One of the options from the frog tokens is to add a costume point, but the little picture they use looks nothing like any frog costume already in the game. I was wondering if anyone clicked on it?

The gift boxes you get off events in future will generally be a LOT better than the frog token replacements.
Quick find code: 15-16-876-58445003

 

 

 

The frog tokens have been replaced by rewards that aren't very generous. That's deliberate. And yes, they're all going to be the same. One guy seemed to be doing well by choosing the "surprise" option.

 

 

 

Rewards gained from other randoms are considerably more generous.

Sad, wasted 3 boxes on some stupid points for some ugly clothes when I could've gotten charms or mystery box. Sad. :thumbdown:

Dragon drops: 82 (2 claws)

Dagannoth kings drops: 73

Barrows item count: 51

GWD drops: 54 (5 hilts: 1x bandos, 3x saradomin, 1x zamorak)

Whips: 4

Sigils: 1x spectral (FFA), 1x arcane (FFA)

According to this article, the Wich [bleep] survived.

 

 

 

Reading this page, I am hugely disappointed. FAIL. All that hype to, in the end, remove a small fraction of randoms.

 

 

 

They said only a small fraction would be retired. Your disappointment comes out of your own ignorance.

Cap'n Arnav, the sandwich lady, and Niles, Miles and Giles all teleport you now...? -.-

 

 

 

yes :cry:

 

 

 

It was supposed to be that way.

 

(By removing some "random types")All they were really changing was making it so randoms which required interaction, such as the sandwich lady asking for you to pick bread, couldn't interrupt combat.

 

 

 

NOTHING is more annoying than having the sandwich lady ask you for bread while your in the middle of killing the KBD... The random "change" was simply to make you teleport to a location to do the random instead.

 

 

 

I thought everyone knew that? :?

Yeah, having them teleport you away now is a good thing, not a bad thing :P Metal dragons was one of the worst places to get one of those randoms previously :shock:

Tbh this seems good.

 

 

 

Alright everything teleports you now, but it looks after hunter traps and odds of them appearing on monster detah have been greatly reduced.
