Theres even a bonus account of the Chaos Elementals most recent Movie Marathon, which may include a sneak preview of upcoming RuneScape content!

The chef one and the Max one made me laugh indeed! Especially Pete's addition to the end of Max's response! :P

 

I'm not gonna even take a crack at the chaos elemental's puzzle, I'm terrible at them!

Boba Fett's The Crucible – Classic courtroom drama re-imagined with jetpacks and ziplines. Cloned women fight each other in zero gravity. Whoever wins is guilty of being a witch. Stars: Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston, Nicolas Cäpe, Rolo Veggues

 

The Queen's Speech – True story of a Queen who sets fire to people when she stutters. Parasites propose that she rapped her jubie lee speech. A soldiered knight rethinks the issue and finds that the solution is song. Stars: Greg Kinnear, Mandy Patinkin, Alex Kingston

 

The Wrath of Carnillean – Experience the newest sensation: a story directed and acted in by you as you watch it! Critics are calling it "a diarmond story to treasure" (The Ardougne Chest), that "feels like home" (Phasmatys Old Herald). Stars: You, Sarsaparilla, Philip.

 

Some Like it Cold – Mistaken identity comedy, a piece of wartime camp. 1Öth Annïversary Edition. Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna , B2 + C2 + D2 = CCC in BS. Stars: Danny DeVito, Namor, Tom, Dick and Harry. Narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Gwyn pointed out that Cape, 10th, and Anniversary have umlauts in them, which probably means it's the 10 year vet cape

 

The queen who sets fire to her people makes me think Queen black dragon

 

Wrath of Carnillean and its description sounds like a quest to me, in Ardy, maybe having to do with Hazeel and his cult?

 

EDIT:

"feels like home" (Phasmatys Old Herald) Construction update? (Thanks to gwyn for that too)

I'm particularly interested if the Juna response to a possible return of Zaros means anything...

I cannot find what she means in that little tale of hers, so that probably means there's a hidden message...

 

Also...

B2 + C2 + D2 = CCC in BS

 

No idea...

Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston & Boba Fett = Bounty Hunter?

All I could think of was that Zaros never "really" left/Leave him be. idk.

 

DeVito played The Penguin.

I've missed these. Good to see they've brought them back.

This might be the greatest movie idea ever. Somebody get Hollywood on the the phone! :lol:

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...

Some Like it Cold Mistaken identity comedy, a piece of wartime camp. 1Öth Annïversary Edition. Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna , B2 + C2 + D2 = CCC in BS. Stars: Danny DeVito, Namor, Tom, Dick and Harry. Narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Namor the Sub-Mariner is a fictional comic book character in the Marvel Comics universe...

Danny DeVito played the Penguin in Batman Returns...

In 3rd Rock from the Sun the three alien characters posing as male humans took "Tom", "Dick" and "Harry" as given names... Although Tom Dick and Harry is often means "just about anyone/everyone" (quite literally)

 

BS... Battleship?

 

B2, C2 and D2 seem to be coordinates, but I'm at a loss as to what CCC means...

 

Hari Krishna is misspelled and should be Hare Krishna, although in the mantra "Hare" can be interpreted as the vocative of Hari, another name of Vishnu meaning "he who removes illusion"...

 

Morgan Freeman narrated "War of the worlds" and "March of the Penguins"...

"a diarmond story to treasure" stood out to me. Definitely sounds like Desert Treasure, or rather an offshoot thereof.

B2, C2 and D2 seem to be coordinates, but I'm at a loss as to what CCC means...

CCC could stand for cruiser, as the cruiser is a 3 hit ship that could be represented on the grid with CCC.

 

Seems to work for me. So we got a cruiser ship that goes from B2 to D2. Could this perhaps somehow be related to those ships that were talked about quite some time ago on these forums? I will try to find a link...

It's probably not related but perhaps it's something to do with Player owned ports?

I'd be more inclined to bet on a Battleships-styled puzzle / scenario during the quest than POP at this point; seems a little early and optimistic. But, you never know.

The B2 + C2 + D2 = CCC thing stuck out as me as 1 of 3 things:

 

1) Battle ships reference which seems penguin linked based on prior quests

2) Gnome link via shorthand for them glass shape tokens

3) Elemental Workshop since pretty much every guide out there uses C2 etc style references for the body puzzle.

 

Personally leaning towards option 1 as the most likely given the context.

 

The fire queen stuff I thought has to be QBD or possible a Char follow up?

"Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna" is a line from The Beatles' "I Am the Walrus".

We know that one of the QBD & KK is in work (Runeshark's mod interview podcast) and the developer "copied Nex's stats as a base"

This could be interesting.

Doesn't nex's power come from special abilities though? Not overly high hitting. ( I never nex so know little) Would be more scared of a boss with jads base attack stats.

Check it out, huge amount of effort has gone into this massive mod!

I would like to see crandor as the new roosting spot for the qbd and have it instanced so after certain events it would appear that crandor is repopulated with a small hub so pvmers could bank. Maybe the qbd's ancient magical influences could have a potent effect on the island and make it a much more deadly place to be and offer some mini bosses to fight. Maybe we'll see brutal black dragons alogside other high level npcs such as giant red spiders, tormented demons, and maybe some type of undead.
