21st April 2009 - Tale of the Muspah

Featured Replies

Experienced adventurers will be familiar with Fremennik rites of passage, and the difficulties they present. Its little wonder, then, that Fremennik children are always on the lookout for an easier path to adulthood, and Erjolf is no exception. Full of enthusiasm but short on skills, Erjolf will need your assistance if he is going to impress his kinsfolk.

 

 

 

Join him in his quest for a trophy, unravel the puzzling story behind a curious corpse, and discover the dark secrets of one of the most fearsome races to ever walk in Gielinor. You may find one or two useful allies along the way, who are willing to lend a helping hand.

 

 

 

Its been great to work on a quest that involves one of RuneScapes most mysterious races, and develop a plotline thats been around since the early days of RuneScape. This is the first part of a new quest series, and paves the way for following quests.

Summary:

 

Where to start Tale of the Muspah:

 

Talk to Erjolf, north-east of Rellekka, at a cave halfway up a snow-covered mountain path.

 

 

 

Requirements to begin Tale of the Muspah:

 

10 Magic

 

10 Woodcutting

 

8 Mining

 

6 Firemaking

 

20 Crafting would be an advantage

 

 

 

In Other News

 

 

 

Picking from a tree or bush has been sped up.

 

 

 

Several items that previously damaged you when used can no longer kill you. Don't worry, though - you can still use them to reduce your Hitpoints if you want to.

 

 

 

The Easter 2009 update has now been removed, and the associated music unlocked for all.

Leet! What is this race, the Mahjarrat?

 

 

 

To Me_Hate_Libs, if you read the thing you would know that this one is supposed to "pave the way" for them all. And they have said that they are focusing on finishing quest lines now.

Didn't think there would be another Fremennik quest so soon after Glorious Memories, but I'm happy.

would it be weird if I said I can't start this quest yet, since I don't have all the requirements. .. If I start training now I will have them before servers are back on.

New summon monster. You get 99 summon and complete a hard quest to gain the ability to summon Jesus, who splits the waters allowing you to walk to a new port town where you unlock the sailing skill. Obviously ;)

 

That was Moses you idiot.

 

That gets fixed in the bugfix the following week. Maybe.

But yeah, so easy requirements :cry:

it's late april and we haven't had a big/decent update this year yet

 

fml

 

How do you even know that without doing the quest? :shame:

 

And doesn't Chosen Commander, SW, all the improvements and various other updates count for anything?

The description of the quest had me on the edge of my seat, until I saw the requirements. I LOL'ed.

 

 

 

Ah well, it's a start of a coming series so I can't complain. Will do this quest tomorrow when I've finished with herblore.

EDIT: from 2 sides, you have to get a lot of rafts stuck with the rocks. In a long line, this will make that side melt.

Puzzles!? Sad face. :cry:

 

Puzzle quests are so dull (to me). Hope it doesn't turn into a 'trend' with this storyline. Then again I haven't done the quest yet, so it might actually be fun. :lol:

 

 

 

 

- Zanik's Crossbow is now properly affected by several more items marked by the gods.

 

 

 

What does that mean?

 

Does Zanik's Crossbow count as a Bandos item in the God Wars Dungeon? Or is it just some prayer bonus bug..

Only fear God,

Aw mate I'm sick of these really high quest requirements, I'm gonna have to work for weeks to get these ffs :(

 

LOL :lol:

 

 

 

But on a serious note, it sound like it might be good.

A medium level quest. Requiring stats no higher than 10 *...

 

 

 

Okay.

 

 

 

edit - and Olly...lawl!

 

 

 

and double edit - *20 Crafting though is HARDCORE!

 

Medium LENGTH. The quest itself is rated "novice" which seems just about right. And since it's the first in a series of quests, starting off small is just logical.

 

 

 

Although I'd like to see quest requirements get up a bit, in general. And I do hope they will still finnish up old quest lines that have been laying around for too long.

Anyone got some answers to the describing of the monster:?

 

 

 

Colour: Yellow

 

Arms: 2/4/6?

 

Legs: 0/2/4?

 

Tail:

 

Head:

34eyfbd.jpg9h43sp.jpg16m28ty.jpg

Next week should be "fixes" so another worthless month. This time I ain't gonna renew until something good is put into the game. :thumbdown:

Describing the creature:

Head: [bleep]ed

 

Hands: Like a crab[/hide]

I'll not lie I love fremmy quests, but this one seems a bit side ways.

 

Trails unlocked the helms, Isles ice trolls and neitz and glorious memories opened the chance of a mountain daughter/fremmy/Miscellania super quest.

 

This one looks like its just going to start or add a little to the super quest, having said that I'll do the quest and find out soon enough.
