I hate spiders, and of course jagex comes out with a event that deals with spiders <_<

 

Ah well, I'll get on later and do it

Albel/Justin

Albel doesn't say anything anymore, just comes in, leaves an arrow and vanishes into the night :(Probably
practising some euphonium

You nearly had me fooled, you fooler you

Euphonium/10.

9/10. To me, always associate Albel with musical stuff in OT.

Everyone with a goatee and glasses is Albel now.

The event and rewards were great. And to the guy who's asking for something useful, be prepared to be disappointed for every holiday event.

 

I meant that the cape could be upgraded to get a teleport to one location, like you were able to do with the broom last year, such as the Makeover Mage's house (example).

Nope, my quest points stayed at 42 after the event.

 

This has just confirmed that I won't do the event, like all others holiday events with cosmetic rewards.

Sheesh, lighten up a little, what's wrong with a few cosmetic rewards? The game is about having fun, in case you haven't noticed.

 

I thought graphically the Halloween event was very well done, it was atmospheric and fun. They really should add footstep noises in the game in general, it really adds to the atmosphere of certain areas.

Good idea! :) It'll help to distinguish a relaxing walk trough Isafdar forest from, for example, racing with a panicked pace through the Temple of Light...

Due to my epic stats, I have now started WGS (but I still hate spoilers).

By the way the bathtub spider dialog was the best ever made in Runescape...

 

"Yup..."

"Nope..."

"Could do..."

"The Spider Queen told me to..."

:thumbsup:

"Spider Queen."

"Who's the Spider Queen?"

"Queen of Spiders."

 

That spider and Eek were my favorite parts of the event. :thumbup:

Oh wow, I hate everything -.-

Death kinda scares me.

your obsession with phallic objects shows quite clearly in your artworks.

Ffs, someone put this in their sig.

The phoenix pets have the sound. Would be really cool if we could get them aswell.

Eek is nothing different from a yo-yo so he'll be in my house end of the week.

 

Eek is a girl (!), when you release her, it says 'her'.

 

I've also heard that so is the bathtub spider :-o

Was also funny when talking to that spider while wielding eek :P. - they're alsmost the opposites (eek being very talkatize/"hyper" & open- that spider being gentle & closed)

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Yeah, I remember the Spider Queen telling us that she'll order 'her' out of the bathtub when all is said and done.

 

Nice event. The cape's nice. When I first heard we were getting pets, I thought they'd follow us around (imagine if we got the reindeer pet last year :evil: ), but then it'd be very chaotic in crowded areas and whatnot.

Hmm, it appears the anti 76king update has caused everything in Runescape to crash...

Don't be so sure. There's a rebound for every crash. As quite a few people have already pointed out, the PVP trick is still very possible and still gives cash drops. The crash is a knee-jerk reaction stuck in slow-motion because of the Grand Exchange mechanics and doesn't necessarily reflect a permanent change in supply & demand.

I like the Halloween update. They're always nice.

 

As for the anti 26king measures, it doesn't affect me as I don't do it.

doesn't affect you? the only way that is possible is if you never trade an item in the game.

I was kinda hoping adventure log would be F2P... I mean really Jagex? Are you so cheap you can't even let us know how long we played? Content is one thing but time played?

 

And reading the 76k thing I laughed and said to myself sounds like absolutely nothing is going to happen. We will see though.

If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.

^^^At least I'm not the only crazy one

I like the humor in the event. Like when you talk to the spider she says 'Wot', that made me laugh. Eek is pretty cute too, I only had her in my hand for about an hour before putting her back in my bank, which I'm sure thats where she will stay for a long, long time, haha.

 

And yes, Adventure log should be F2P, give us a LITTLE bit more? Please?

Jagex doesn't make a habit out of giving new things to F2P. To be perfectly honest, I'm just amazed that the new skill coming out next year is gonna be available to F2P But it'll probably be loads harder to train and much less useful than P2P's version of the skill...

 

On topic of the thread: I liked the event, all around. The dialogue was really great this time around, and the web playground was a little annoying on the first floor, but it sure beats what we had to do in other years. Anyone remember 2007's Halloween event? I nearly burst an artery trying to get those damned ghosts.

 

Eek is fun, and the little conversations reminded me of a happy zombie head. Matter of fact, Eek is kinda like a combination of the yo-yo and zombie head, isn't she? But still, it was worth a chuckle.

This just confirmed that, despite at least five years of playing, you never got a clue as to the point of the holiday events.

I always feel dismayed whenever I see that they have decided to use a large obstacle course for the quest, but at least it beats agility training. :P

 

 

This 'spider agility course' beats all the course we have hands down. I did the gymnastic bar swing thingy and the kungfu wall running back and forth, and it's amazing how my character suddenly becomes Spiderman!

 

Regarding the new 76k changes, how good is it in preventing tricking? I see lots of posts about how it's lame and players can bypass it using 3 or more players, but has anyone actually tested it out?
