09-Nov-2009 - Champions� Challenge Update and Hairstyles

Recommended Posts

Seriously, how can a game be still good if every update this year, as what you think, sucked, when I see no difference between them and those from the beginning of RuneScape 2 and BTS? :blink:

Because things that got added were lame, not the excisting content. The core of the game stayed the same while most updates were dull, uncreative and useless. The upgrades are nice, but the added content will be forgotten after a week.

And your definition of the 'core' of the game is?

My favorite update of the year, to be sure. I can't wait to run around with my 10 Champion Scroll's Banner!

 

Oh, and it looks like I have to return to the hunt! That gnome champion is definitely going down! I'll update my guide later too.

Has anyone killed the abberant spectre champion yet? I'm hoping that after killing the gnome Champion of Champions you might get a reward other than XP and a banner, after all you can't exactly take the gnome's place as you're not a gnome. :P

Things that haven't/hardly changed since the release of RS2. The game itself, not specifically the content.

Thank you so much Jagex, for making the banner the "sailing cape" banner again... :wall:

 

 

The "In Other News" was amazing.

 

Champion's guild needs a truly worthwhile reward though. Right idea, just poor execution.

I disagree. Champion's Guild should never have a truly worthwhile reward. It's not meant to be something players feel like they need to actively work towards, and it would be bad for the game to create an incentive for high-level players to crowd low-level training spots for hours on end looking for super-rare drops. The rewards should be straight xp rewards, cash/tradable item rewards (like logs, fish, essence, etc), and/or cosmetic rewards (the banners).

 

Although I agree that the rewards should be increased, I strongly disagree about making them worthwhile. Make the xp rewards much larger and add some money, but don't make some untradable amulet that gives a 15% power boost against champion scroll droppers or some crap like that. That would be a horrible idea.

Here is possibly some info the tip.it crew could use. :P

 

 

Banshee Champion is 73 combat.

The reward is 1050 slayer and hp exp.

 

He also shows the banner in the video. Looks kinda scary.

Main update: horrible. Still no real reward

 

Secondary updates make up for it *2 though.

It's great you know what you're talking about rustiod. Everything you've said is 100% accurate a true.

 

That being said...your a [bleep]ing [bleep] douchebag, and none of your advice will ever (or should ever) be taken seriously because of it.

disregard good advice because the giver is a douche

 

THAT MAKES YOU A BETTER PERSON

I don't think that matters. One player can get it on the first kill and another only after 8K kills. It's all about luck.

I wonder how Jagex decides which race gets to have a champion. There isn't one for ice warriors, other variety of ogres at least. And if EVERY single race gets a champion challenge of their own, I don't think the basement can actually fit all the banners.

That's viable as a solution for the space constraint, but what about the choice of 'race'? What constitutes a race in RuneScape? Add every breed into the list of champions?

Well the champions of champions are the humanoid races that have civilisations.

 

The other race champions are all creatures that are slayed enmass and thus might get annoyed. Note they are all monsters that generally do or have previously been slayed enmass as a means of training or killed enmass for some purpose. They also are all races proven to be relatively intelligent.

They're not adding every "breed" into the list.

Indeed, it seems that, to be a champion, you must be humanoid and be bipedal. If we take that into effect (and ignore the other variants of ogres, giants, demons and warriors (to be honest, using more of these would just make things look bland)) these are the remaining options for future champs:


  •  
  • Trolls
  • Orcs (now killable in the GWD)
  • Cyclopes
  • Monkeys/Apes
  • Necrychaels
  • Spirits
  • Ankous
  • Otherwordly beings?
  • Vampyres
  • Infernal mages?
  • Scabarites

 

I left out Aviantese and Spiritual X's because they're supposed to be extinct. So until Jagex retcons them....

Still quite a list.

Vampyres can't cross the river very easily, and if they do they are severely weakened, like Count Draynor.

There at least used to be "mysterious champions" sitting around the arena, including a gnome (which was released),an elf and a TzHaar, also some else I don't remember
