[22 May 2012] Song From the Depths

[Pinata]

Loving the new names on knights and corpses.

Sir Rebrum - Cerebrum

Sir Pent - Serpent

Sir Rownd - Surround

Sir Ruppee - No idea what this is meant to be, syrupy?

Sir Loynst Ayke - Sirloin Steak

Sir Rinch - Syringe?

 

Syrup?

 

Suppose they could be aiming for plain Syrup just the 'ee' doesn't seem quite right for that sound, since most of these rely on phonetic similarities.

Rs wikia says the "pe" is silent. Tried looking it up but all I got that pe is p in hebrew. I could be entirely wrong though. Also, for me at least it was just Sir Ruppe instead of ppee.

 

 

 

 

Warning

 

Whatever you don't add the CW team cape hoods to the rack. It will take them, but when you withdraw them you only get the cape. So good game 125minutes lol...

 

I had both in inventory.

Used cape on rack. Cooresponding hood still in inventory.

Used hood on rack and it worked.

Withdrew the "cape and hood", but only got the cape back.

 

 

Also, the back button is in the middle of the capes... I didn't see it in patch notes but they did add the 7 CW capes to the cape rack. It could have been last week or something but I just noticed today.

[Quest_Cape_K]

Would syrupy not work for his name?

[ForsakenMage]

"Wending Through the Willows" is a nice song, but ow... the reverb... ow....!!!

 

Overall, fun little quest. :)

For the crossbow upgrades it mentions "With some help from Thurgo, you’ll be able to upgrade the crossbow from Song from the Depths into a truly fearsome weapon." Does that mean that a certain smithing level is likely required to upgrade the crossbow?

[Dusk Souls]

Haven't seen this posted here, so I might just as well mention it, for the 25k XP con reward you need at least 80 Con to survive the Acid.

I really enjoyed the quest, the voice acting was great and the story line wasn't too bad. I really liked The Raptor's voice; I felt it added a lot to his character all that much more convincing as being "the bad guy".

 

The extra 30k Constitution xp in the tunnel afterwards was a nice bonus, too. All in all a good update and I can't wait for the QBD next week. :)

[Platinum_Myr]

The Raptor is Batman. This explains so much.

OT: I personally, in terms of voice acting, think that this quest was way better than One Piercing Note. Let's just hope this is a sign that the more voice acted quests they release the better the actual voice acting will be.

[Platinum_Myr]

I think the voice acting was a lot better, but the quest plot for One Piercing Note was a little better.

 

I want to see more voice acted quests for higher levels. Low level quests, even if they have good plot, never feel as epic, because the adventurer didn't really have to do much.

[TheLad1]

For some reason they forgot to allow the Bonecrusher to work on the Grotworms :(

[Urza285]

I am really interested to see a longer quest for voice acting. These short quests for some reason seem too short and it's making me think they don't have the resources to completely go with their voice acting plans and make it truly fly off as a quest standard.

The Signature Hero Rimmington deserves, but not the one it needs right now...

I agree, and I think they also don't have the resources to hire people who specialize in this sort of thing; the voices and singing aren't as high quality as I would expect.

[ForsakenMage]

For some reason they forgot to allow the Bonecrusher to work on the Grotworms :(

 

Noticed that as well at the Mature Grotworms. They're not too bad for slayer tasks, just a bit slow. Experience is nice though (205xp/kill). =)

 

And at least the singing has some tone and emotion to it. Whoever sang "The Dragonborn Comes" in Skyrim... Just :wall:, although I guess it's more because of the character's nature maybe, I dunno. ARGH.

So her sisters are the mermaids from Deadliest Catch.

Kind of disappointed by the lore just a generic Cinderella replicate.

Also has some issues how are the pots stacked with a brush on top and used to cook in when this house is underwater? (Judging by the comments of not using their legs for years)

Also why must every single Mermaid be tied into this 1 family? Couldn't we of had a Mermaid society or at least a different family.

Personally I'm glad they connected the two quests and fleshed out the three mermaids from Deadliest Catch, their sudden appearance in that quest was such a red herring at the time. Though I would be interested in more exploration of this new race, I thought this lore was sort of neat.

From that angle sure perhaps it is nice, though none of the specifics given REALLY required it to be the same Mermaids. It could've been a separate family and still given the same flesh to the one's from Thasslus quest.

For me it still just feels too contrived and too convenient for them all to be of the same family. It kinda be like if that one blind Imcado dwarf we met was Thurgo's brother or all the Mahjaratt were siblings, kinda feels better and something more if they are not related because it indicates an entire race opposed to just one family.

 

Tbh the geography of the story irked me too.

When they go in search of her they head south (obviously to Port Sarim area) yet they had migratory fish passing them before, where exactly where these fish migrating since the 'north' from which they came is entirely enclosed in shorelines. Also where exactly is this cove and cliff-face they climb down to reach the QBD lair? There's certainly not any cliff-faces near the QBD lair, not coastal anyway.

I liked the quest and the Grotworm cave is just amazing! I ended up walking instead of running all the time to enjoy the scenery :lol:
