Angel_Kate Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 So runescape have done the Elite Achievement Diaries (Awhile ago = Me - New member on here sorry ) I was wondering what you thought about the Elite falador Shield? Personally I think the Falador shield 3 Looks better than the Elite Version My dislikes of the Elite shield are - Its too small - An doesnt really fit in with the White Knights Of Falador. IMO What do you guys think of it, reply & Discuss I look forward to your Comments :razz: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Squab Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Well, the 1-3 versions of basically all the diary items were designed with their own "area-theme" in mind. The elite diaries were designed to look good as a set. The Falador Shield 3 might fit the theme better, but it wouldn't be able to match the rest of the equipment. EDIT: Also, the unlimited teleport to the farming patch from ardy elite seems useful... 8k tokul a day and respawn in fight caves seems nice from Karamja o_o Double Bork drops, 80 b staffs seems nice...no idea how useful "storage" box for logs for the beacon network is o_o Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Angel_Kate Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Yeh Ardy cape elite & New EE are definately the most useful, Its so annoying teleporting to Ardy market each time todo Farm run lol :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewing Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 8k tokkul a day 1 onyx = 17m gp = 2800k tokkul8k tokkul = 48k gp not worth my three minutes to tele to karamja and run to the bank to get 48k's worth of tokkul (which may i remind you you can't cash in until over a year of visiting the banker). your income must be under 1m/h for it to be worth it -- the extra 16 bstaffs a day is nice i guess, double charms from bork if you aren't already 99 summoning -- falador elite does nothing but make a "more convenient" altar for switching to curses. in actuality the actual sennsisten altar is closer to the digsite pendant's teleport than the falador altar is to the falador teleport. -- seers and ardougne are the only really useful ones in my opinion How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifflin Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 The problem is that apart from Seers diary, the scaling of rewards does not match the scaling of required levels. This gives little incentive for player to actually train to the levels needed if they do not have them. PM me in game anytime It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet. That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel_Kate Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Yeh, Diaries just arent very fun when they Cost tonnes & Dont have anything to be Proud of really :thumbdown: But... Future diaries maybe better lol What comes After Elite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're there already, I can't see how taking 2 seconds to get a free 48k is a bad thing. But I agree I wouldn't go out of the way to do it. (it takes you 3 minutes to get there? Takes me like 30 seconds :unsure: ) Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormveritas Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 You folks are crazy, the rewards are GREAT! Varrock - the 16 extra staves is great, the elite armor looks magnificent, and double bork drops is tremendous for someone that doesn't just nolife combat. It has helped me get closer and closer to banking the charms I need for 96 summon. Falador - the double pray renewal is really nice! This is a really useful reward at places like dark beasts, frost dragons, etc. I haven't gotten this one yet but can't wait for it (2 more pray levels!). Ardy - Fantastic. The teleports that cape offer are wonderful. The farm patch lets you access the polar bear well up there, the farming patch, the 150 essence/day wizard really quickly. The monastery teleport lets you recharge pray instantly, and is also THE FASTEST TELEPORT TO A FAIRY RING IN THE GAME. I use this at least 5X / day. Lumbridge - terrific again, love this one. Cabbage port is a lovely one click tele, unlimited now. Small pray bonus is also useful. Very easily attained. And has no one mentioned that all the elite capes offer you 200k exp in a skill of your choice? That's amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I think the qualm for most players is the fact that since these diaries are so high level, the rewards that you get from them will hardly affect them (mainly talking about stuff like Bork drops and inferno adze). But still, who doesn't love experience lamps? <3: BlogTrimmed | Master Quester | Final BossBoss pets: Bombi | Shrimpy | Ellie | Tz-Rek Jad | Karil the Bobbled | Mega Ducklings120s: Dungeoneering | Invention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swainy Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I agree I was kinda disappointed that they did away with the Tower Shield design of the falador 3. It's a unique design to RuneScape. Too many squares and kites already. Still, it's a nice shield and i'm not complaining about the double prayer restore. They coulda increased the farming bonus though just slightly. Regardless the elite stuff looks grand, the elite diaries were great incentive for me to level prayer (besides soul split and turmoil of course). Personally i love the extra bstaves and double loot from bork. Too bad the armour doesn't give you the chance to mine double runite. :P I'm guessing the legs will be based on the Kharidian area. Or perhaps Morytania. Looking forward to them regardless :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Den Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I like the elite version more in some ways and the tower shield more in some ways I have no problem with either though, I like both. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

stormveritas Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Slayer ring is fastest tele to fairy ring. Hrm, is that through the slayer dungeon / AJR ring? I'll believe you at face value on that one, but must counter that the elite cape doesn't -ever- dissolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirIzenhime Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Yes, you tele to the relleka slayer cave, and go through that fairy ring the ring only costs ~90 gp to make, just make them in bulk, and they'll last you awhile.

stormveritas Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Well, as a testament to laziness, I won't because I don't -have- to. The elite cape is an excellent tele very close AND a free pray recharge, so I won't be using slay rings for that. Not to mention the Elite cape is an excellent candidate for a cheap combat cape, easily replaceable. And you get 150 essence / day (which adds up quickly). And it's right next to the farmy patch. And it restores summoning once / day (good if bringing multiple familiars). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirIzenhime Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 there's no denying the cape is good, we were only talking about fairy ring access. You act like we were saying Slayer ring > Ardougne cape for everything :unsure: Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obtaurian Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Ardy - its elite reward wouldve been excellent for hard, but as elite it fails. Lets face it do people with the stats required often alloment farm? Possibly a few efficient players will preach herb farming is great no matter what! but lets be honest at this point you have better money making methods. Monastery teleport is a hard reward not elite. Almost every single high-level player that I know (and most of them are decidedly efficient) does at least one herb run daily. One of them, D Jay99, has gotten something like 10m farming experience on herbs and bushes alone. It takes five minutes, it's easy, and it's a nice chunk of money in your pocket. The elite cape is extremely convenient if you do more than one herb run a day. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghjkl Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Farming is NOT good money if you are high level. Farming maxes at 2m an hour, dks, frosts, tds, corp, bandos are all over twice that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewing Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 yeah if you don't care about farming xp then it's not worth doing herb runs if you have high income How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghjkl Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Not worth doing herb runs period. It is more efficient to ignore herb runs and focus solely on trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Davy Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 That's true. But if you don't have the time to complete another trip at any of those moneymakers, doing a herb run is definitely worth it, as that would be the best quick moneymaker within those time constraints (say half an hour, plenty of time to do some things, but real bossing is certainly not on that list).
