Carl Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 The Rogues’ Den has come under unwelcome scrutiny by the Imperial Guard of Burthorpe, and Brian O’ Richard has closed its doors once and for all in favour of the Flash Powder Factory. To stay out of the slammer and ensure that his dear old Mumsie isn’t left destitute, Brian needs resourceful rapscallions such as you to operate the factory machinery; traversing the treacherous obstacles therein to collect and mix reagents, in order to create as much flash powder as possible. The factory’s a dangerous place for the flat-footed, so you’ll be removed once a set time limit is up, or if you become trapped between the doors dividing up the factory’s maze-like interior. You can boost your score by holding multiple sets of factory apparatus, additional sets of which can be “borrowed” from your fellow players. Be sure to keep an eye on yours, though; within the factory, you’ll find little honour among thieves. Performing well within the factory will earn you points, which can be exchanged for Thieving and Agility experience. Persistence may also earn you new garments, which allow for the creation of four-dose potions, grant additional experience when creating unfinished potions, and improve performance within the factory itself. Finally, you may find pieces of old Rogues’ Den gear strewn among the rubble on the factory floor. How to start The Flash Powder Factory: Enter the trapdoor behind the bar of the pub in Burthorpe, and speak to Brian O’ Richard. He’ll give you instructions and all the equipment you’ll need. Requirements 75 Thieving 75 Agility 50 Herblore Pickpocketing sets of apparatus from other players may help to improve your score. However, those who choose not to engage in pickpocketing will be able to perform effectively. Mod Moltare In Other News... The Rogues’ Den in Burthorpe has been removed in favour of the new Flash Powder Factory minigame. The safes, bank and cooking fire remain in the area.

Spam clicking the money pouch inside Mobilising Armies no longer shows the ‘disabled’ message multiple times. Smithing with the Varrock Tasks reward armour now takes coal from a coal bag when the double bars effect takes place. Balnea from As a First Resort has had some spelling altered to reflect her American way of speaking.Reclaiming Mackers from Diango now correctly sets up the pet system so he no longer runs away.The Saradomin Godsword's special attack now heals for the correct amount.Naff now recognises money in a player's money pouch.Thieving from chests in Dorgesh-Kaan now awards coins.The ammo mould from Dwarf Cannon can no longer be added to the toolbelt until the quest has been completed.

Leik Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Persistence may also earn you new garments, which allow for the creation of four-dose potions, grant additional experience when creating unfinished potions Only this caught my eye and interest. Hopefully it's actually decent and doesn't take too long to unlock. LIVERPOOL WILL WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON.

chenw Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Worst part of the update: they removed the door on the ice plateau to the rest of the wilderness. I have to yet to check Ghorrock teleport, but if the telespot havent changed, there is now a VERY big difference between Ice Plateau Teleport and Ghorrock teleport 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

chenw Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Edit: Ghorrock teleport now lands you just North of the wilderness teleporter outside of KBD lair. The biggest difference I can see in the Deep wilderness is the addition of ambient voices, and a general overtone replacement. The entire wilderness now has a yellowish brown tint across all areas 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

Kirschen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 So the mnigame is actually an instanced world. This is why I keep auto dc'ing instead of entering because of full servers. Jagex broke their minigame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsCook Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 So how many worlds do they have dedicated to this mini game? I mean, if it's just the one non-roam-able world then thats only allowing 2,000 players to try out this update every 17 minuets?

Fred_S Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Decided to try to do Deadliest Catch with the new chat update. Seems like certain cut-scenes are now broken, cannot pass the cut-scene where: [spoiler=Deadliest Catch Spoiler]Jones get spewed out onto the boat. It just interupts after that event in the cutscene.

Crossed_Body Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Just tried it out. Agility obstacles give no agility exp, and the points are too few to make it rewarding. Stealing and getting stolen from is too easy, and due to that it becomes an unnecessary hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
