muggiwhplar Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Dungeoneering Improvements (Free Players & Members)There’s nothing like breaking new ground in the murky depths of Daemonheim with a full party of friends at your side. If you prefer to go it solo or with just one or two friends, though, some of Daemonheim’s sweetest swag could – until now – feel unobtainable. That wasn’t fair, and today’s update changes that.Clearing floors in Daemonheim now gives you far greater XP returns than before – at least double for a solo player – as well as a far higher yield of tokens. While a full group of five is still the fastest way to progress, no-one should feel that Daemonheim's bounty is out of reach. Start saving up for that chaotic rapier!In line with feedback received on the Evolution of Combat, we’ve also overhauled the item binding system. Everyone - regardless of Dungeoneering level - can now bind ten items. You won’t get to carry all ten at a time, of course; they’ll go into a remotely-held pool of bound items, from which you'll be able to select loadouts by speaking to the Smuggler. You can return to the Smuggler at any time to switch your bound items, and he'll remember up to three presets for ease of use. The number of your bound items that can be included in a loadout varies according to your Dungeoneering level:1 Dungeoneering: 1 item20 Dungeoneering: 2 items50 Dungeoneering: 3 items90 Dungoneering: 4 items120 Dungeoneering: 5 itemsWith this new system, you never need be without the right weapon for the job – doubly important when the Evolution of Combat lands in a week’s time. Switching between specialised melee, range and mage setups is as simple as a trip back the smuggler and will no longer take such a heavy toll on your inventory. Couple that with a slick new interface to manage the new system, and no foe need stand in your way. Gravestone Update (Free Players & Members)Ever died in Darkmeyer, watched as your gear faded before your grasping fingers, and found yourself in a city full of hungry vampyres, wearing just your undergarments and an expression of dismay? Brr…With the new gravestone interface, there's no longer any reason to be left out in the cold. Just click once on your gravestone to neatly display everything you dropped on death, allowing you to choose the items from your gravestone rather than clicking frantically through a long list. It's also possible to click the gravestone timer while nearby, to take you straight to the point of your demise - useful if there's more than one stone about. There are also 'take all' and 're-equip all' buttons, so you'll be up and back into the fray before you know it.Mod Liono & Mod Chris L In Other NewsWe've made a selection of tweaks to the Crucible based upon player feedback:We've placed a Prayer altar in each of the Crucible's banks to help out between battles.The pairing mechanic has been reworked to give fairer opponents.Familiars have been disallowed.Information about the Supreme Champion has been made clearer.The Supreme Champion role will now deal more damage, and reward an extra trophy bone per killing blow.Gorajian mushrooms are now allowed into the arena.[*]Put some boom into your skilling with Explosive Skilling Animations, now available in Solomon's General Store![*]The 3 quest points awarded for Prince Ali Rescue have been removed.

Urza285 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 People already whining how 120 dung is degraded by letting everyone bind 10 items. Um... Hello!? This means people who are 90+ will probably have a starting loadout of primal/prom 2h, primal/prom/sag top, primal/prom/sag legs and bn/hex/primal/prom/sag hat. This leaves 120 ding folks to just fill out more. I think the ideal pool would be this:1. Primal two-hand sword2. Primal platebody3. Primal platelegs4. Hex hunter bow5. Saggitair leatherbody6. Saggitair leatherskirt7. Celestial catalytic staff (T11)8. Celestial robe top9. Celestial robe bottom10. Saggitairian arrows I think the ideal starting loadout would be primal two-hand sword, primal platebody, hex hunter bow, saggitair body, saggitairian arrows.

Thus Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Can you right click the grave and get items without opening the interface?

Leg armour is relatively minor. In the current combat system, you're looking at bn/hex+arrows/primal plate+2h with a choice of gauntlets or hood for primary set, with Sagittarian only for hexes in case of Necro, and ccs/efs with robes only for csbs in case of Hope etc. It's stupid you can't bind more than one ammo bind. Personally I don't like the ability to switch within a dungeon as well, it makes it far too easy to switch to tank gear for example, or to go all-out Sagittarian when you find Necro. 2 Supporter of Zaros | Quest Cape owner since 22 may 2010 | No skills below 99 | Total level 2595 | Completionist Cape owner since 17th June 2013 | Suggestions 99 summoning (18th June 2011, previously untrimmed) | 99 farming (14th July 2011) | 99 prayer (8th September 2011) | 99 constitution (10th September 2011) | 99 dungeoneering (15th November 2011) 99 ranged (28th November 2011) | 99 attack, 99 defence, 99 strength (11th December 2011) | 99 slayer (18th December 2011) | 99 magic (22nd December 2011) | 99 construction (16th March 2012) 99 herblore (22nd March 2012) | 99 firemaking (26th March 2012) | 99 cooking (2nd July 2012) | 99 runecrafting (12th March 2012) | 99 crafting (26th August 2012) | 99 agility (19th November 2012) 99 woodcutting (22nd November 2012) | 99 fletching (31st December 2012) | 99 thieving (3rd January 2013) | 99 hunter (11th January 2013) | 99 mining (21st January 2013) | 99 fishing (21st January 2013) 99 smithing (21st January 2013) | 120 dungeoneering (17th June 2013) | 99 divination (24th November 2013) Tormented demon drops: twenty effigies, nine pairs of claws, two dragon armour slices and one elite clue | Dagannoth king drops: two dragon hatchets, two elite clues, one archer ring and one warrior ring Glacor drops: four pairs of ragefire boots, one pair of steadfast boots, six effigies, two hundred lots of Armadyl shards, three elite clues | Nex split: Torva boots | Kalphite King split: off-hand drygore mace 30/30 Shattered Heart statues completed | 16/16 Court Cases completed | 25/25 Choc Chimp Ices delivered | 500/500 Vyrewatch burned | 584/584 tasks completed | 4000/4000 chompies hunted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
