strilmus Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I don't really see the big deal about the effigy thing.People stopped training skills legitimately once effigies came out. Now they are butthurt that they don't have an easy way out of training skills.No... It's Jagex's fault for making the game function this way. It makes absolutely no sense that I now have to go find someone with the required skills to open my effigies. This is a stupid update.I put the blame on Jagex for creating Effigies in the first place. I am disappoint about the update too, but all I see is Jagex fixing a mistake they made long ago.All I see is Jagex attempting to fix a mistake they made by making a further mistake, somehow managing to make a hasty decision out of one that they postponed too long. It's like they're the master of making poor decisions. They should have at least bothered to overhaul their slowest skills with something that was more...sane. As for not training the skills you don't like, ever since they introduced elite tasks, that was kind of thrown out of the window in favor of leveling a whole bunch of irrelevant skills in order to be able to access certain important abilities, like increasing bolt specs, or super enhanced excalibur.

icecube Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 So.. what do you guys think are the chances of someone without high herblore/prayer/summ getting the cape? Waves up to the boss seemed intense even with maxed gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strilmus Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Is it just me or has the sound been removed when drinking potions?They changed it to a more respectable sipping noise an update or two ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsCook Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 It looked as if the actual climb of waves was harder than the main fight it's self. The main fight looked alot like a quest fight...Either way, don't think i'd be getting one for a while :( Â Runescape Player Since '04 | Tif Member since '06 | Max Combat | Too Busy Playing MW3 Â Remember: Anyone who is worse than you is a noob.

highlanders Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 The cape is so ugly I don't even want it. I'll probably wait until comp cape to get it. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Not a bad quest, really enjoyed the visuals. You know, except for the [bleep]tarded way they've set up the entire TzHaar cavern now. Most of it is even emptier than before, and makes finding everything a trial of patience. On top of that my world map no longer works; It loads an indefinite black screen which I can only get out of by guessing where the x should be.The fight in the Kiln was actually a tad challenging, but only because I didn't take that many supplies to begin with and used a fair bit in the caves leading to it.Unfortunately at the end I spent 20 minutes looking for the little shit that had just been with me when we were ACTUALLY supposed to talk to one of the mystics in the center. So. [bleep]ing. Aggravating. This is why real games have waypoints.At least all of the monsters look awesome now. I'm going to do the old Fight Caves just to see all of them. Damn shame there was no graphical update to either of the old capes. The new super difficult to get cape looks like it was originally intended to be the Obsidian Cape.

Sly_Wizard Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 That picture reminds me of an insect. I want an armadillidiidae, but it's not that. Or maybe it's a Pokemon. Either way, that's one ugly cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Effigys were pretty stupid anyway, Dont get the problem. Its just like RS was a year or so ago with a little bonus for combat training now.  OH EM GEES NOW YOUZ GOTTA TRAINZ DEM SKILLZ.Dungeoneering is stupid as well, we should nerf that. Way too powerful weapons. Make it so you get 20% less xp for each chaotic you have?Slayer is honestly really stupid, could do with a nerf, you can kill those creatures way too easily with fsh boost. Maybe 20% less combat xp on task? I mean, just because you think it's stupid, is not a reason to spoil it for others.What? They are the worst comparisons ive ever seen.I disagree with miracle's first post, but he is right here. They are bad comparisons.  Maybe if using a chaotic gave you fishing XP it would work, but it doesn't so they don't link.They weren't meant to be the same sort of things, but ridiculous complaints. Which, judging by your reactions, they are. People did complain about all sorts of things being "too powerful". I'm saying that just because they are very powerful (game-changing in terms of what you can do to level) you don't need to nerf it.

Kimberly Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 They never intended for them to become so prevalent to RS. They were supposed to be a little bonus. All they did was fix their mistake If they truly intended to fix their mistake, then it would have been better to lower the exp rewards and rework how they are dropped (ie hitpoints, level, etc). This just makes very little sense, and the botched, mish mashed lore coverup for when you log in is ridiculously out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alg Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 That's not a cape, that's...portable drywall on your back, the hell.It wouldn't be so bad if the spikes didn't defy gravity (Unless it's a particularly solid cape... Which wouldn't really be a cape). Did they put the thing on upside down or something? I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeRambo Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Not happy with the effigy change at all. There's no difference if you want to collect them or open them at once .. I feel sorry for the people that were saving to open them by themselves. Instead of focusing on FPS & bot issues they do this .. Guess I can't collect 200 effigies. <_< My guess is that the effigy rate will be slashed in half (1 effigy every 2 hrs at crawlers) :thumbdown:  How long did the quest take for people that have done it? Not really happy that the cape is a requirement for comp cape, especially for people that can't afford expensive equipment, and have FPS issues, etc. The cape should have some smoke or something..a golden trim, idk .. It looks somewhat boring right now. "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." "An imperfect man can do great deeds, and a great man imperfect ones.
