Tim Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 14-Jun-2011 - Troll Invasion Trolls have begun their invasion of Burthorpe in earnest, leaping from the Death Plateau into the Imperial Guards ranks. The Guards claws are not quite enough to hold them back, so they need your help. Whether youre a skiller or a fighter, the Guard welcome you. You can choose between fighting them head on, or repairing the single defence that stands between the trolls and a fleshy buffet. Opt for close combat and youll be thrown into 20 increasingly difficult waves of trolls; starting with common mountain trolls, youll quickly be dodging the strikes of dynamite trolls, troll summoners and Cliff - hes big, hes ugly, and he once ate a coastline. If that sounds too tame, theres a 7-wave version to test your mettle. Only 7 waves, you say? Try holding back Cliff with dynamite, runts, spells, poison and rocks whizzing past your head! Crafters, constructers and firemakers can also take on the trolls. Tend the ballistas, top up the oil drums and repair broken walls to frustrate your opponents. Just make sure the trolls dont get their stone mitts on your defences, or theyll start pummelling it into nothingness. Hardcore defenders will even find morale boosting effects that can be used to whip up the Imperial Guard into a troll-busting force. Youll be able to fight against the troll invasion whenever the fancy takes you, but you will only receive an XP reward for doing so once a month. Try to make the most of that attempt, as the XP you receive is based on how many waves you manage to survive or how many trolls you kill defending the keep! Youll then be able to put the XP into a skill of your choice, in a similar manner to Penguin Hide n Seek.

Den Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Not really interested, but I'll try it. Doubt the auras/loyalty rewards will be out until the last week of the month, so probably a no update week next week.Kind of meh month, but I had finals anyway. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

tuggernongy Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Friend of a friend dc'd wave 14/20 and got ~21k rc xp at level 65, apparently. Waiting to see what the reward is at 99. EDIT: hoping next month is half decent, nothing this month is really of interest to me. :/ EDIT2: ahahaha system update incoming, they screwed something up. I'm not a gambling man, but i'd have bet on this if i had the chance. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIREWORKS Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 That's really low for once a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frede173 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Spoilers[hide]The first waves are a complete joke for anyone with above 90 Defence and decent melee armour. The only thing you have to watch out for is the rangers' special attack which damages up to 200-300.The sick troll (which I thought would be a pain in the ass :|) lowers your melee stats by 1 every fourth or fifth second. And that's only if you're in melee range.The final boss is level 238 and uses a stupidly inaccurate melee attack whenever you're close to him. If you're stand more than one square away from him he'll use a magic attack (he probably also has a Ranged attack although he didn't use it on me) which is completely blocked by protect from/deflect magic. The XP reward is kinda nice though. I got 54,5K xp for spending my points on a level 83 skill.[/hide] That's really low for once a month.Low for once a month, yes. But keep in mind it only takes 15 minutes to beat the easy wave. Owner of a comp cape since February 11th 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Den Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I'm afraid we're going to have to reboot the servers again in a few minutes to fix a bug that's kicking people offline. We're very sorry about the inconvenience, especially for anyone who's trying to play with the new troll waves. Mod Ash Senior RuneScape Content Developer P.S. For what it's worth, the bug affects people who've clicked on things that they shouldn't be able to see. The server's not handling it very well anymore.

Squisher_33 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 im confused on the 20/7 do you do the 20 waves then have the option to keep doing and do 7 more? or do you have to choose right away between the 20 and 7 wave versoin? was that 53k rc xp off of the 20 wave version only? well as far as xp per month this is only about half as good as pernguins from the sound of it, but at least today i can do this + penguins + penguins, get myself like 150k rc xp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyebeam Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I got around 75k~ xp @ 97 RC for the normal wave. #3325 to 99 Smithing #4332 to 99 Herblore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
