Short-cut for Dks

Featured Replies

I need more information about this short-cut, because i haven't done the quest yet and i really don't want to do it for the moment. So any info it's apreciated.

You do the quest up until the point where you must go to waterbirth island to save King Vargas. Talk to Bardur to get a rope by the entrance, then go west and go down the hole. You'll find King Vargas and if you agree to help him you'll appear in the room right before the big room with all 3 monsters, plus the rock lobsters most people stop at. Now, the trick is instead of helping him all the way to the end, you get him killed. This is because if he's alive and you go down to the Dagganoth Kings' lair, you'll start over. So just kill him and then you're free to go.

OMG u gotta be kidding me! I did the complete quest 2hrs ago and I found it really nasty. If I would have known then to make it take shorter in time, I would have done for sure!

No, this doesn't help you complete the quest, it;s just using the path in the quest to get to the Daggonoth Kings faster. In fact completing the quest past that escort mission means that the shortcut is no longer there (Which is rubbish imo).

I will be stunned if this is not corrected in an update soon, probably this week.

The only thing you can do to ruin the shortcut is to lead him all the way to the end of waterbirth, which you won't do by accident if your intent is to only use it as a shortcut :P

 

I agree Qeltar. Except I'm hoping the fix will allow the people who finished the quest to use the shortcut! It would be sooo useful :grin:

There's confirmed no update until next week ;-) (future updates RSOF section - post by Mod Emilee)

 

"Hi all,

 

Just to let you know, "A Christmas Warble" is the last game update of the year. It shall be available to play and enjoy until the next game update which will be launched in the week commencing the 11th of January.

 

We hope that you all have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! :D"

Shame I would've never finished the quest (for now) if I noticed there was a short-cut right in front of me.

 

I hope Jagex take this into account and give it to everyone who did the quest!

I rather think they'll remove the shortcut for the people who haven't finished than adding it for who has finished it.
