February 12, 201313 yr Sadly Jagex just nerfed Icefiends to the ground. Guess its time to get back to bot infested waterfiends once again.. From 1100+ to 236 exp and charm rate seems to be down aswell
February 12, 201313 yr Down to 180 crimsons per hour from 250-300.Down to 60k experience per hour from 350-400k. I don't see why they nerfed them as the Ghorrok location requires doing most of the quests in the game to even access as well as to obtain those rates, you need 92/96 herblore and 95 prayer. I guess working towards end-game has no benefit anymore. Back to camping botterfiends. Edit:How in the hell was it bug abuse? They have been at those previous rates since November when EoC came out. If Jagex really thought it was a big deal, they would've hotfixed it when it was brought up on the HLF within a week. [software Engineer] - [Ability Bar Suggestion] - [Gaming Enthusiast]
February 12, 201313 yr Bug abusers whining about a bugfix, what's new. this was NOT a bug.. The only limit is your own imagination.
February 12, 201313 yr It wasn't a bug but I think the exp rates were too high. 150k-200k an hour exp would have been more reasonable a nerf though. R.I.P. The olde nite.

February 12, 201313 yr I agree with the not a bug part. But those kinds of charm rates AS WELL as very high xp was a little bit too much.
February 12, 201313 yr It wasn't a bug but I think the exp rates were too high. 150k-200k an hour exp would have been more reasonable a nerf though. true. oh well i got 99 def/hp/97 att in a week there though..so i got what i wanted lol The only limit is your own imagination.
February 12, 201313 yr Author Reducing the exp rate to about 200-250k exp an hour would have been a better choice. Gotta admit 350k an hour was just insane.
February 12, 201313 yr Jagex being Jagex are incapable of doing things the right way, just gotta accept it and find the new method.
February 12, 201313 yr A level 185 monster that gives 236xp a kill, do jagex even think about what they're doing? The xp rates were too high, but to make them that low is just stupid.

February 12, 201313 yr Jagex throwing the baby out with the bathwater? Well I never... | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules |
February 12, 201313 yr It's possible (although somewhat unlikely) that the change was unintended, especially considering that there was no mention of it in the news or patch notes. It should be reported as a bug unless Jagex says so otherwise. ARENAscape: Baratus [AS] max hit: 166 with Moon Battle Hammer ixfd64 [AS] max hit: 116 with (untitled spell #2)
February 13, 201313 yr That's unfortunate. Luckily I got all the XP I needed from them. LIVERPOOL WILL WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON. [01:24:34] CJ Hunnicutt: it takes skill to be that [bleep]ing stupid
February 13, 201313 yr Why are people surprised. It is standard Jagex procedure to release something that is obviously unbalanced, but allow people a few months/years to take advantage of it before they decide to fix it. See effigies/runespan in recent times. Asmodean <3
February 13, 201313 yr Jagex balancing at its finest. Instead of toning the xp down so it's on par with other monsters of the same level, they nerf the xp so much that it's not even worth it to fight them anymore.
February 13, 201313 yr Standard Jagex procedure... due to two things that have happened recently?Right...
February 13, 201313 yr Standard Jagex procedure... due to two things that have happened recently?Right... I gave two examples in my post. There are plenty of other things. Off the top of my head, nerfing steel titan ranged damage from scrolls significantly, and nerfing the damage from cannons. They've both been around for ages, and basically let you get a free 99/200M skill. If you require even more examples I can think about it in more detail? Asmodean <3
February 13, 201313 yr I'm pretty sure that going from your logic, every other method of gaining exp let you get a free 99/200M ranged. Because cannoning to 99/200M exp would require you buy the cannonballs, and using Steel titan for 99/200M exp would require you to buy all the supplies for 99 Summoning + enough time slaying to gather the charms.
February 14, 201313 yr Why do I hear about 'em being good XP only now? 40,919th person to access Turmoil. 21,559th person to access Overloads. Are there any hidden bonuses here? No bonuses
February 15, 201313 yr Author Why do I hear about 'em being good XP only now? Cuz we wanted that place to ourselves :P
February 16, 201313 yr Looks like they want all >100 level monsters to have low HP (and thus give low XP), but have extremely high def/evasion rates (prime example: 170 Double Agent, which requires nonexistent tier magic equipment to have a >50% hit rate). It's a trend. Look at metal dragons, for example: they were great slay tasks, but now were nerfed to be 2 hit and give shit XP and require even more attention. R.I.P. oO000oO0oO00, RS2 range pure transformed to a maxed PvM char in EoC, ten years of time completely wasted.Good to be gone :)
