Ffs another month of waiting for the dung quest....

Rip..

While an Ivy for smithing is fine since I can't be bothered to spend much money on smithing, but it wouldn't be needed if smithing was ACTUALLY USEFUL. If they added more tweaks so smithing actually produced stuff that couldn't be gotten easier from monster drops and other ways then it would be the smithing update we had been hoping for. Instead we're going to have to wait another year before they realize we still want a real smithing update and then attempt to do a better job than this time. :thumbdown:

 

The EW puzzles are a pain, but I just do them with a guide so it doesn't take too long. How many quests will it take before we actually get anything useful from this quest series?

 

Pirate quest seems okay, hopefully it gives a nice dungeoneering bonus. Also hopefully their Fremmenik longships worth of tiny tweaks and gameplay improvements to the Dungeoneering skill will make me want to actually do dungeons rather than just use tears of guthix on it.

 

I'm looking forward to the ring of wealth update. I used to always use it until a year ago when I found out what it actually did. Though teleports on it are what I look forward to the most. Maybe I'll actually save up to upgrade to a fury if the RoW has a teleport right to a bank like the glory.

The smithing update is deffo not what we wnated but it sounds like it might be worthwhile.

Afterall they have said the ceremonial swords will be better xp than pl8 bodies shuld speed things up a little atleast.

Happy that we're getting 2 quests, though I may change that depending on what EW IV is like :P

Smithing update doesn't sound particularly brilliant, since it took them over a year to do I expected more than a new sword to smith :unsure:

RoW could be interesting, I'll reserve judgement on that until we get more details on what it does. Still useless for Slayer though.

When I read the first few lines about the smithing update, I was thinking that Jagex had done it so wrong.

Then I read

ceremonial swords

and hope started to return

 

You do realise what Ceremonial swords are for, right? They'd never have been proper combat weapons, regardless of what theyre made of.

Personally am slightly dissapointed in this aswell though. Like most others, was hoping for some sort of augmentation/upgrading of current armour at higher levels. I just got 97 smithing yesterday too... Ah well.

Problem, 99 smithers?

I was happier in my ignorance, but thanks for pointing that out :(

Ah well, the Pirate Quest at the end of the month looks to me like a beacon of light.

Personally got 99 smithing b/c I enjoyed the skill, it wasn't until ~8 months after I got it that I heard about a possible smithing update. And when I heard that I thought it'd be something along the lines of extremes/overloads are to herblore. Not like the lumberyard is to woodcutting.

Cow graphical update.

 

Edit: I waited over a year for this smith update? "Trimming dwarf cannons"

Does anyone even use the lumberyard? :unsure:

I'll stay positive, I'ml especially hopeful for the RoW update. Maybe I should refrain from killing the Kalphite Queen till it hits, and every little bit helps at getting a DFH.

It's the fastest wc exp in the game, so I'd assume so. Ivy is more popular because you don't have to be actively involved, though.

At least there aren't any D&D's :thumbup:

 

Hopefully ROW will work with lootshare ...

Ffs another month of waiting for the dung quest....

Rip..

 

 

Erm we have the "dung" quest in that we have the first quest with a dg requirement in the new pirates quest.

 

Other than tht we have no form of "dung" quest to be waiting for.

Problem, 99 smithers?

Hardly, its a low level update and your way late on that.

You should have had that up after the living rock cavern update.

Thats the official way to train smithing nowadays.

That has no links to dungeoneering thou* and everyone referring to that says the ROTM quest

 

*Just to cover my ass for pedants: it has no CONFIRMED links. It might req dg but nothing has confirmed or suggested this

What Neltak said - personally for me I wanted 99 smithing since I started RS in 08. i remember the days of smelting mith bars and selling them and spending the profit on bones :3 Thought I could get 99 that way ;) Yes I was a naiive F2P.

 

And exactly Blyaunte.... It'll have hype for a week maybe 2, then everyone wont bother with it and it'll collect dust.

 

And Green9090 my trollface > yours ;)

 

OMG, time to buy out RoW's.......yeah no.

 

And hey, at least I will have fully unlocked the smithing update already. I won't even have to train to get all the benefit of it. Yay!........the only reason I ever had to level up smithing is gone.... :/

 

Oh well. Something useful from the smithing skill was a bit too much to hope for I think.

 

Not a huge questing fan myself, I haven't even bothered to finish EW II and III yet.

 

Well, at least the bonus xp weekend will get me 96 sum while using fewer charms. Already had the charms for 92-96 anyway, but now I might be able to knock out RC effigies once and for all!

People call it the dung quest because it's heavily rumored that it will unlock an extra bind slot.

Just about spent my bank on 99 smithing so that I would be able to use the "awesome new update" many expected. Definitely glad I didn't now... Oh well. I'll have to try out the new RoW for sure though. Going to be a hard match to compete with my zerker or ferocious rings.

 

New quests look fairly promising. Has there ever been much use for "elemental armors" or am I just missing something? Wonder if after a "full set" from EW 5,6,7,ect. you get some special sort of ability o.O

 

Hopefully the thieving quest actual requires high thieving. Judging by Jagex's definition of "high" though, you may see a 60-70 thieving req. lol

 

Oh well. Dung update is probably the most interesting for me. Still waiting for ROTM >.<

I bought adamant bars for 93 smithing yesterday.

 

 

Welp, at least I can get more exp out of them making cerimonial swords.

Yes -- but "more" experience doesn't necessarily mean "faster" experience. <_<

 

One has to wonder if this isn't just another one of those "which is closer to the bank" kind of situations ...

The RoW update looks great, especially with the ability to determine when it's working or not. That will make choosing between berserk (i)/ferocious easier hopefully. That and the pirate quest are really the only things I'm looking forward to. Ele workshop 4 just seems like another puzzle quest that will give out scrub gear, bonus weekend I probably won't do anything, and the smithing update doesn't interest me unless it's a better way to get 80.
