08-Feb-10 - Musical Update & Strykewyrms

[pal2002]

Talk about limiting supplies of the staff of light....wtf...you need 93 slay, a fire cape, AND assigned a freaking task to kill it. It better be a 1 in 50 drop or this things gonna become a new sigil drop ffs.

About the new Patch update:

 

Mod Osborne mentioned something about "Waking the Muspah" under the Quest section...possible hint/spoiler????

That hexcrest thing is only 1.5m in GE anyways....... And I just visited the mounds..... I don't think you can attack them unless you're on a slayer task as I just tried with the desert ones..... Might try with the jungle

[Squisher_33]

does focus sight woth with cannon?

 

are wyrms cannonable?

 

are they multi?

[Dire_Wolf]

Anyone noticed? In PvP magers are also vulnerable to rangers missiles, yet the staff only "halfs" the damage from meleers. So PvP Warrior made a bit weaker

Rangers obtaining Slayer helm - faster killing, but do they deserv that? I remember as a meleer, archers being able to safespot Dragons, while i could not do that at lower level. And the resources was also more expensive.

 

Stinks that Warriors are being put down...,give us a new melee weapon!

Just how useful is the staff for things other than slayer and pvp? Is it better than a void mace and claws of guthix+charge?

[Lider_V]

I can't find the ice monsters and I have both a fire cape and they're assigned to me.

 

Can anyone help me out?

[Naraku893]

buying staff of light.

[LatinII]

The staff of light saves you 103k if you're maging with fire surge, and 360k if you're casting ice barrage.

 

SD on max settings. It looks like HD but without the anti alias.

[bored321]

2nd one (16 kills in)

 

:mrgreen:

[brunokiller]

Do you need to have them as task to kill them?

[Squisher_33]

are they cannoable and does focus sight work on cannons hits?

[Gradeskip]

Do you need to have them as task to kill them?

Yes task needed.

[brunokiller]

Do you need to have them as task to kill them?

Yes task needed.

Annoying, why did they suddenly start making stuff like this after I get 99 slayer.

[Mike_Ike111]

The new Standard Detail looks better than HD.

[bored321]

Not cannonable as u have to investigate them first. Dunno about it effecting cannon yet.

[LatinII]

The new Standard Detail looks better than HD.

 

How? SD laggs and it doesn't have anti alias.

[Rahila]

upgraded slayer helm + ferocious ring + mithril knives + greater demons task = freakin epic now

[Zepheras]

Do you need to have them as task to kill them?

Yes task needed.

If I have to choose an insignificant low-level Slayer update, or an awesome high level one that actually irritates you, I'll pick the latter. B)

 

Pity about the design of the staff, but perhaps the Saradomin sword and this Staff of Light has some hidden information? It's no coincidence that they have such similar looks. I refuse to believe that the designer is 'lazy', for he/she is still not lazy enough to name a yellow staff as the staff of light.

It's not as soft looking as HD, so it seems more realistic and detailed and less like a N64 game. HD to me looks like it's been put through a blurry filter even without Anti-Alias.
