What do dwarves and quests released in 2009 have in common?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They're all super short. :wall:

Ba-doonch.

 

 

 

In other news, according to the Knowledge Base article, level 48 Chaos Dwarves are "twice as likely to drop an axe." :ohnoes:

[Danqazmlp]

'The famed dragon pickaxe can also be found by killing chaos dwarves here. It will only be obtained by the most patient and persistent of chaos dwarf fighters, but it is worth it: the dragon pickaxe has a potent special attack and is the highest level pickaxe currently in the game.'

 

 

 

Obviously means they are rare, but does it mean they can be found on the regular chaos dwarves here too?

According to the info on the monsters "Chaos dwarves have twice the chance of dropping an axe." I suppose they mean "pickaxe."

[EU Slayer]

I was really getting into the quest, Veldaban was giving up this commandership, then I saw the quest complete screen and I went FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

 

 

 

I know what you mean...

 

The quest came up a litle.. Short.

 

 

 

Over all a interesting 20 min breaking from woodcutting :)

full quote:

Chaos Dwarf (Level 48)

 

Chaos dwarves like causing chaos! They are more belligerent than the Drunken Dwarf, and twice as likely to carry an axe. The chaos dwarves of Keldagrim have a slightly different origin from those in the Wilderness.

 

 

 

means twice as likely to carry an axe then the drunken dwarf, not a dragon pickaxe. i wish

I've been killing the regular chaos dwarves along with cannoneers now for about half an hour, they seem to have almost identical drops, even the same numbers of coins, except the regular chaos dwarves don't drop cannon items.

 

 

 

So it could be that they do drop pickaxes.

It's a confirmed dropper of the pickaxe, so it's more profitable to kill the cannoneers although they hit harder the loot is better.

[Danqazmlp]

This is the level 48 chaos dwarves not the cannoneers smelly. Although both seem to have identical drops apart from the cannons and shots.

Cannoning Chaos Dwarves in the Tav Dungeon would probably be the fastest way to get the pickaxe then, if they do in fact drop it.

[Danqazmlp]

But then, the KB says they are different to the wilderness chaos dwarves, so they are probably different to those ones too.

[Drazhor]

The saying "Don't knock it 'till you try it" comes into my mind right now ;)

 

But yeah; people could try to kill them though i would say they woudn't drop them; as im guessing it's the higher leveled chaos things in that battlefield that would drop it.

[Den]

If the chaos dwarves and dwogres drop dragon pickaxes... does that mean the red axe have dragon pickaxes? :P

[Sy_Accursed]

If the chaos dwarves and dwogres drop dragon pickaxes... does that mean the red axe have dragon pickaxes? :P

 

 

 

It means The Red Axe have a form of axe that is Red

 

 

 

So Green Gemstone must have Emeralds =O

[ArtemisCatal]

If the chaos dwarves and dwogres drop dragon pickaxes... does that mean the red axe have dragon pickaxes? :P

 

 

 

Maybe that is why they are called the red ax? :lol:

 

 

 

dragon=red colored

 

 

 

edit: haha, great minds think alike. I wonder if we could work out the major comidity of each company by the name?

[JoeDaStudd]

Anyone else wondering whats the connection between Forgiveness of a Chaos Dwarf and Between a Rock...?

 

I was thinking about it and it makes no sense as not of the characters cross over :| and nothing you've done on Between a Rock... affects the plot, characters or even the locations used.

I was really getting into the quest, Veldaban was giving up this commandership, then I saw the quest complete screen and I went FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

 

 

 

 

 

Exactly, the quest itself was going fine. It may have been light on details, but the first 20 minutes of quests tend to be the setup. It just seemed to end halfway through. I understand that this was part of a series, but each part should still have its own climax and resolution. This quest didn't have that. In my opinion neither did The Chosen Commander. I really have to agree that the quests released this year have been sorely lacking in the quality provided by some of the older ones.

 

 

 

Quests are what I play the game for, I love the storylines and feeling that there is a purpose to what I'm doing rather than grinding for levels or money. To be honest this quest took me less time to complete than raising the 3 firemaking levels i needed to complete it. I'm just not satisfied with a quest I can finish in 20 minutes. Give me a quest that gives a detailed story, with some good puzzles and a decent boss, and make it take an hour or more to complete, and I'll be happy.

 

 

 

@JoeDaStudd - The area where you put out the fire and go into the cave is only accessible after completing between a rock. That cave is right next to the one from this quest. (if I'm not mistaken.)

Wrong

 

 

 

the cave is south of that. The cave from between a rock is directly west from the guard tower area, not south then west.

 

 

 

As I said

Hmm, makes sense. I just remember the cave with the cannonballs is directly north of the new cave so I assumed you couldn't get to it without doing between a rock

Why would they even need to do that? They could just say that the Consortium owns and, for bringing up a potential danger to their attention, they're allowing you to use it.

 

 

 

Furthermore, Dondaken already owns a mine full of more gold than you could find in any two lesser mines put together. Why would he want another?

 

 

 

I think this was just an attempt by John to bulk up the quest requirements.

I think it's an attempt to make sure you do that quest now as it'll probably be required for a later quest in the series. Plus, the consortium is much too greedy to let us use their private mine.

Well, they could tie it in later and just have your company own the mine then. For your continuing services as a valued member, they'll allow you access.

Dear Guthix! Look at the new KB article!

 

 

 

http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/cha ... attlefield

 

 

 

 

 

Apparently, Dwogres do NOT drop the Dragon Pickaxe! Apparently, it's the Chaos Dwarves that do! All that work! :lol:

 

 

 

This MAY mean that it's the lv 48s that noone cared about that were dropping them!

 

 

 

Good find!! although the dwogres may be grouped into

The famed dragon pickaxe can also be found by killing chaos dwarves here. It will only be obtained by the most patient and persistent of chaos dwarf fighters, but it is worth it: the dragon pickaxe has a potent special attack and is the highest level pickaxe currently in the game.

 

because they are a mxture of the chaos dwarves and ogres.

 

 

 

but im gonna go on a lvl 48 chaos dwarf killing spree.

When your with veldanban tryignto get to the cave, the dwarven boater/ferryman ask veldanban if he's going to the mines to visit is father. Maybe valdanban's father is the dwarf with expensive balls?
