Platinum_Myr Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 They could have taken the old shards and reforged them into a new weapon. This would allow for customization.

decebal Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 The hilts are enchanted. When attached to the magic-absorbing blade, the metal changes to have different properties, including looks. Retcon achieved. Love the new looks. I actually got a lot of amusement from that ogre poking his own belly button, then eating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estoc Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 At 0:12 on the right you can see updated Pernix, Virtus, and some players wearing what looks like Torva boots.

Urza285 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Maybe the power of each specially made hilt has an effect on the godswords blade? 1 Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!

Estoc Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I'm betting on them saying hell with the lore and just making 4 impressive swords. 1 From the empty days of hope, deny the darknessFollow my voice, we'll run far away from hereIf only to hide, to escape this lifeAnd live forever, forever in the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I do find it interesting that they are removing the special effect of the god swords at the same time as making them look different... So now they are only cosmetically different instead of realistically different.

Den Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 That looks amazing. Focus the graphics team on cool stuff like this and not the crappy non medieval cosmetic items please. 1 ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

J35u5_M4 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Graphics team is doing a pretty good damn job. Can't wait for this + Al Kharid update. I wonder if they're going to change Virtus/Pernix graphics as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 That looks amazing. Focus the graphics team on cool stuff like this and not the crappy non medieval cosmetic items please. Totally agree, given the current graphical level they are producing they really need to give most monsters and npcs a once over and the vast majority of the map too. I mean off the top of my head they ought to do this kind of makeover for:Shanty Desert - like the entire thing all the settlements etc. Make them inkeeping with the rocky stylings of the abbey and forthcoming kharid, though obviously more ancient eygpt style building.Lumbridge and Draynor - One of the more up-to-date areas but still behind nowVarrock - Same as aboveFalador - Same againSarim & Rimmington - Bit dated nowMusa Point & Brimhaven - not been touched for yearsSouthern Karamja (Tai Bwo, Shilo, shipyard etc.) - again very dated.Yanille and Guntannoth - Don't think this has ever had a proper makeover, include MA, jungle hunter, cwars, port khazrad and fight arena and observatoryArdougne - both east and westSeers & Cathurby & Camelot - again looking datedTrollheim & other northern reachesFremminik lands - rellekka and all the islandsTirrawan - seriously thoose trees are kinda messed up next to the newer stuffCrandor, Soulwars Isle, Ape atoll, brain death etc. - basically all the islands.Brimhaven dungTaverly dungWilderness dungeonsWaterfall dungeonSmoke dungeon & wellShadow dungeonSwamp caveDorgeshkannSlayer caveWaterbirthMyreque tunnelKeldagrimI could go on...

Den Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 The Karidian Desert hasn't been changed since it was texturized with RSHD I believe, so it does very much need an update. Falador and Varrock need some polishing, but Lumbridge is one of the more ok places in my opinion. Rimmington got an update with the Queen Black Dragon, but the area above Rimmington (Melzar's Maze area) should be given a small rework. Other than those comments I like your list. ^ I would love an RSHD style massive graphic update to the overworld map. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Platinum_Myr Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I would love an RSHD style massive graphic update to the overworld map.

Sylpheed Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 @Sy I don't agree with Draynor, I think it's one of the better looking areas in the game. Yanille and everything south of it is what needs to be updated first imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 @Sy I don't agree with Draynor, I think it's one of the better looking areas in the game. Yanille and everything south of it is what needs to be updated first imo Draynor was fairly recently updated anyways, along with the night/day thing in the area (it's always gloomier there). I think that was an oversight. I agree that everything south in the members area could use some fresh paint. While it takes longer, I would prefer to see this release all at once instead of in bits and pieces.

Saradomin_Mage Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Poor lore, first all the silly cosmetic stuff, the Runespan et. al, and now this Godsword fiasco :D Anyway, Kree'arra: 1 In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.
