3-Jan-2013 - God Statues: Construction D&D


Tim

Recommended Posts

God Statues (members only)

 

In this new Construction distraction and diversion, you'll help Copernicus Glyph - master sculptor - to build up to four statues each month at sites around Gielinor.

 

 

There are four statue sites around the world: in Lumbridge, Taverley, Canifis and Gu'Tanoth. At each site, you'll have the choice of building a statue of any of the following: Commander Zilyana, Juna, Kr'il Tsutsaroth and General Graardor. It's up to you which statue you build and where, but tempers in the area may flare if you make a controversial choice!

 

When you've made your choice, you'll follow Copernicus's expert directions to build scaffolding, from which his latest masterwork can be wrought. Once you've determined the correct number of pieces to be used and arranged them in columns of the right heights, the statue will be completed and you'll earn a hearty chunk of Construction XP. The quality of the statue that you build - and the XP reward - will depend on your current Construction level.

If you have chosen a statue that's appropriate to the area in which you're building, then you'll have the opportunity to pray at that statue for a Prayer XP reward. However, if you've built a statue that ill fits the area's faith, then you'll earn the ire of one of the local god's more militant followers. Drive off the fanatic who attacks you and you'll earn a Slayer XP reward. In this way, you can choose to receive either Slayer or Prayer XP for each of the four statues that you can build per month.

 

At the start of each calendar month, any statues you've built will be destroyed, and you'll be able to complete the D&D four more times for further rewards. Build any one statue four months in a row (in any location) and you'll earn a wieldable chisel, in the colour of the statue's related god. When wielded, this handy tool can be used to boost your Construction level by 1 - great for making some headway in your player-owned house!

 

So, what're you waiting for? Prove to Copernicus that you're a chip off the old block and earn yourself some rocking rewards!

Personally, I've been looking forward to this all December. Being teasted with it in January only makes me want to build the wrong totems in spite of the townsfolk!

 

Feel free to discuss the update, plan your move, and collect the experience rewards!

 

If this is a once a month D&D as I presume, would one be best training construction until the end of the month, and then reaping the rewards, or is it better to jump right in? :P

Got 5K construction xp at lvl 82 construction, 2.5k slay xp at lvl 86 and 4.5K prayer xp at lvl 93 Prayer.

The puzzle is really easy and doesn't take long, so the rewards are quite low, but still worth the time ofc.

what?

 

 

14k construction xp - 94 lvl

6k slayer xp - 97 lvl

 

For all 4 statues only 14k constr xp? If that is the case that is a big dissapointment in my opinion. A monthly DD should give something around troll invasion xp in my mind. If it is 14k per statue it is not great either, but it's decent I guess if the DD is very short.

That's per statue. The XP is decent in my opinion, around 60k construction xp for me. Won't complain at free xp.

20,898 construction xp

6,966 slayer xp

 

Both 99

 

Fanatic level 134 Zamorak Warlock, uses Flames of Zamorak and is weak to water.

From the empty days of hope, deny the darkness
Follow my voice, we'll run far away from here

If only to hide, to escape this life
And live forever, forever in the sun

According to Jagex wiki fanatics depend on slayer level

1-24 Arrow weak

25-49 Crush weak

50-74 Bolt weak

75+ Water weak

 

Also xp formula is a strange one.

10y/6z

y - total xp between current level and next level

z - current level

For prayer/slayer reward the answer is further divided by 3

"Will the people who have already completed statues be able to recomplete the D&D or are they going to have to wait until next month to benefit from the fix?"

 

Don't worry guys, nobody who has already completed the event will lose out on potential XP. blk.gif

There's nothing really wrong with this update, it's just insignificant. A grain of sand amongst grains of sand.
