the books disappoint me. They just go to +8 prayer from +5. But 10k prayer and 10k craft as one off reward for each book, so 60k total.

I really enjoyed this quest, the atmosphere was haunting and I liked that you could have your character give different opinions on what's happening; it doesn't change the story but I feel like it makes the character a bit more personal. And I agree that the difficulty was pretty decent, I spent a long time trying to figure out the few things I was missing but it never became so frustrating I gave up, I do wish that there were more clues as to who you should talk to next/what you're missing. The voice acting was fine, a bit annoying when you had to talk to the same person over and over but a decent-ish quality (Besides the aforementioned background noise). I don't think this should be a regular component though, it worked fine here because sound was such an integral part of the plot and song was a central theme/motif but in a work where the audio work isn't being milked enough to really add to the story I think it could make it worse.

I enjoyed the way it was laid out. No req quest doesn't mean monstrous amounts of xp. Now the activity, that's another story. Light easy and worth your time if you have the items.

 

Voice acting wasn't my favorite. I did enjoy the songs though (as long as they aren't as repetitive).

 

[hide]The shriek during the quest gave me chills. I enjoyed that as well as the subtle ominous sounds when searching were great![/hide]

 

Overall, an enjoyable quest. Not a grade A performance on the voice acting but keep working and you'll get there! Call me up, I'd love to move and help out with the audio team. :)

 

 

I'm not suggesting a ton, but maybe like 500 instead of 250?

 

I would also love to be on the audio team myself! I actually looked on the Jagex site to see if they had any openings haha

Voice acting annoyed me tbh, its nice when the odd boss monster yells at you but on the dialogue it just felt wrong. Especially as I can read much faster than they spoke so at first I slowed myself up a lot waiting for them to finish yammering, but ultimately I began ignoring it and just continuing as I read; which resulted in an audio mess of half sentences.

 

The singing groups were nice, but it would of been nicer if they both would've quietened down volume wise when dialogue was entered. Talking to the choir mistress and the velrio got quite annoying as the two audio tracks were both so loud.

Thanks. Us poor old free players don't get to see such things unless you all help us out. :wink:

How long has the Desert Stryke area not had a desert effect to it (not requiring waterskins)?

I think that was changed last week, it was pretty recent at any rate. Also, kind of a random tangent, but for some reason this quest really makes me want to listen to Hotel California :mellow:

Ah ok, thanks :).

 

I completed the quest earlier and really enjoyed it. It's a shame the lag issue ruined it a little for me.

The in-game ping display is a nice addition (displayfps). I do believe it came in with this update.

 

Now I can quantify exactly how lagged I am.

Reacting impulsively and saying what's on your mind feels oh so good.. for a little, until you realize you just started WWIII.

Ooh that sounds pretty nice. Don't have to use the developer console. :thumbup:

Was very pleasantly surprised!

 

Best boss fight ever. Hope they add this one to the Tower.

I literally laughed for 3 minutes straight while cleaning the face off the spikes of my Ragefires.

Wish I'd taken a picture... But it was wholly surprising.

Seems like you also need the cloak.

 

EDIT: Or an empty inventory as well.
