Tansuo Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 How does one acquire Robert the Strong's journal? I could have sworn it was in my bank prior to this quest but..? PoH bookcase I believe? Pretty certain that it isn't there. I have so many books in my POH though that it's possible I missed it. The bookcase is organised by misc -> quests alphabetically, but I have no idea what quest it is from. RSWiki isn't helping either. Reading the quest log seems that there's just a confusion of wording.

BloodAngel Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Is it odd for me that the best part of this update aside from new quest goodness is checking tip,it to see who posted a topic first? Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought it was this quest that required 75 divination?Fate of the Gods is the quest that requires 75 Divination. Too many quests to keep track of! Decent quest, short but I'm glad we were actually supposed to work things out for ourselves for a change. "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."

Bouwzie Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Anyone else having problems with the mini-map? Clicking on it does not put the flag where I want it for me. Always a few pixels left or right from it. Also when just clicking anywhere on the screen, it doesn't match on the mini map. Edit: that said, I can't find where it mentions the updated icons.

Levells Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Can anyone tell me where or just what level wildy it is after the kbd talk, the entrance to the last white dragon? I welfared a little too much and now have no idea where to go. The artefact doesn't work...I saw what looked like a spirit realm portal nearby, but it's not the forgotten cemetary.

Scherzo Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I liked this quest a lot. Lovely to travel around in the "real" world again, instead of just being locked in a single instance throughout the whole quest. The story was nice as well, although the whole dr.mordaut part seemed a little sowed in, just as a way to be introduced to Hannibal to begin the "real" quest. I'm not sure there would be a better way to do so, but I think when he first was made a part of the quest, returning to him towards the end or something like that would make sense - The quest ends without answering his question starting the quest: Maybe there's still a dragon rider out there. My hopes are high for the next quest, as well as future quests after that. If they work with quests about the same way as they did this one.

Saradomin_Mage Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Imo the quest got a bit slow towards the middle when we were just running around doing mostly the same thing over and over. The combat encounters were fun but not amazing. [hide]Echo of Jas battle was cool, but thinking of it as a guy in recoloured dragon gear made it seem a bit cheap.[/hide] Which brings me to another gripe I have with these quests: What's with all the asset re-use? The final battle was against a recolour, in a copy of another GM quest's area, not to mention that the celestial dragon dungeon area is just a copypaste of the Brimhaven resource dungeon sans Mithril dragon area. It's like their graphics budget ran out halfway or something. 1 In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

[hide] I don't know, I thought Guthix's final resting place made sense for a boss fight representing the dragonkin's curse to kill a false user. He was probably the most powerful false user the Stone of Jas has ever had and did more with its power than seemingly any other. Although it undoubtably saved on the graphics budget, it also made sense within the lore to me. I don't know how to portray jas, let alone an echo of jas, so can't really comment on that. I'm not sure anything was really needed for dragons, most dragons are in pretty copy-paste or uninspiring type areas. [/hide] R.I.P. The olde nite.

The reskins and asset recycling was obviously what he was getting at. To be honest I didn't mind it at all. There were still enough new areas and characters to make it feel authentic, and most reskins were fine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little bit disappointed in the Celestial Dragon dungeon, thought they might've done something cool with that but I probably won't be down there too often unless Celestials are slayer tasks.

If that's the case (they're pushing for faster and cheaper quests), I'd say this far but not further. As others have said, the lore kept this quest afloat even though the graphics weren't stunning + reused a lot. The only place I thought about those were during the final battle, being in Guthix' chambre; though that could make some sense. (even though I'd like to have someone mentioning it in the quest why it was the same room). The nice thing about them cutting down on graphics for me is that runescape, even though it's a lot better than ten years ago, for me always have been about the lore and the story, not about the graphics - this quest is kind of keeping in that tradition. Better graphics would of course be better, but I'd rather cut back on them than on the lore and storytelling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saradomin_Mage Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Armour is level 70 hybrid. Top has +10 prayer, helm and legs +7, cape +6 (I think). Dunno what the prayer bonus on the superior boots/gloves are. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
