September 21, 201015 yr 21-Sep-2010 - Gunnar's Ground Why doesn't the barbarian village have a proper name? Why are these savage warriors living deep inside civilised lands? Why is there a dwarf slumped against the wall of their village' date=' looking miserable? Take a trip west of Varrock to find out! This new quest, for both free-players and members alike, delves into the history of the barbarian village. Gunnar's Ground focuses heavily on the story and the characters in it, but there's still time for RuneScape's first poetry puzzle. Free-to-play mages will find the new rewards especially interesting. Although this is a novice quest, additional rewards are available to high-level crafters. Gunnar's Ground replaces Romeo & Juliet in the quest list. We think of it as a spiritual reworking of this classic quest to tie it more deeply into RuneScape's own background and stories. You'll recognise some of the story elements, but we've kept things fresh and interesting. To understand more about the reasons behind Romeo & Juliet's removal, read the Wherefore Art Thou Romeo? blog. Players who have completed Romeo & Juliet won't receive any more Quest Points from Gunnar's Ground, but will still be able to play this new quest for the rewards. Players who had not completed Romeo & Juliet will receive five Quest Points from Gunnar's Ground.

September 21, 201015 yr Looking forward to it, Skillcapes have been lengthened once again. I trust they'll be shortened again next week ;) I was waiting for this to be posted, what took you so long :P They can't make up their mind clearly :P Sounds good, I always like quests the give a little history and background to areas :thumbup: "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."
September 21, 201015 yr Sorry about that. I have no excuses, but we just didn't think they were appropriate anymore. We have had similar feedback on "Why did you change that picture on the wall in teh pub it was my fave picture OMG". "Bring back wildy ditch it was my mum" or, indeed, "That female banker in the GE was HAWT why delete!! OMG!!" Heehee, the Dev blog for this is quite funny. Quest seems intresting, mainly since it's a quest I'll actually be able to do on release. Then it's back to TF2 for me. <_< CLICK THE IMAGE TO GO TRY SHARK ATTACK DANGIT.

September 21, 201015 yr Author Looking forward to it, In other news...Skillcapes have been lengthened once again, so we can make them shorter next week. I was waiting for this to be posted, what took you so long :P Boring update this week, not even anything in the other news. I was waiting for you to post it.
September 21, 201015 yr Hmm, what a grea... :mellow: Back to Reach for me today.Reach is the equivalent of this update but for the Halo universe. But I agree, update sucks. From the time I reach 99 Defense and HP to the end of August I'm going to try and get a bunch of 99s.

September 21, 201015 yr O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? :sad: Last.Fm My Bloggy Proud to have served on Tip.it Crew
September 21, 201015 yr So... Will rewards for the new quest make it worth doing for the ones that have completed Romeo&Juliet? Can't say I love quests, and you don't get questpoints for it if you completed Romeo&Juliet, so :P Skeletal wyvern guide: 100-150 crimsons per hour and PROFIT
September 21, 201015 yr Is anyone else saying the game has update and tells you to refreshNo matter how often i refresh, i keep getting that message :( Main Account - Max cape achieved 10th September 2011 Noob Account - 2300 total and climbing
September 21, 201015 yr Gf Toad 5 Crafting? Hmm boring updateYou use levels to determine how fun something is? :blink: I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog]. I am an [Ex-Moderator].
September 21, 201015 yr Well, I'll have to see how the quest itself goes. At first, I didn't want them to eliminate an old quest, but now that I've read the blog I understand and mostly agree with them. I just wonder what precedent this sets for removal of future quests. If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.
