Arceus Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 They definitely messed up the reward curve then. Or they really wanted to pander to people who just missed one or two pieces and still bought a ton of spins ._. 1 "Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for."

jayc3399 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I had 22mil bxp to start, 18mil was dg xp it only converts for 1187 credits, I turned in the other 4 mil bxp and got 1800 credits, put those all into dg, now have 1234 credits worth of dg bxp at 20 mill. So 2 mil bxp turns into 40 credits at that amount. What a joke. 1 Quest Cape Achieved on November 14, 2007Items AcquiredCrystal Pick and HatchetBerzerker Ring x 33/28 Barrows Items Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I can understand cleaning it up if there was foul language or inappropriate content, but to edit a post just because you view it as "messy"? Seems to overstep the bounds of what a moderator should do if I'm honest.Because making a post legible is such a gross abuse of power. Right. This week doesn't interest me, but I'm not bothered. We'll soon hit the "summer" month range which is when they'll push out the good stuff. E: Wait I just remembered that I am bothered about how absolutely stupid the exp cashin penalties are, the fact that vic's function was gimped when it was already gimped to begin with, the fact that they have the temerity to act like "oh we're putting shbs on minigame months we're so invested in our players" while other TH rewards would be "too damaging" in an uncontrolled market what, and many other things. Bite me, Jagex. I want to love your game. I want to put funds towards your game. Yet you consistently make piece of shit after piece of shit decision with a smile on your face. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bxpprod Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 She was only trying to help by making it more readable for future readers. Maybe it wasn't the best choice of wording but I assure you there was no bad intent :). Well the Patch notes were unreadable in my eyes and hence I labelled that as messy. Then as I was fixing that, I just tidied it all up a bit. "No" L.

Stev Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Guys (gals), what happened happened. She was trying to help. Could have been handled differently, yeah, but unless the author has the original saved and feels like reverting it for some reason, back to the update. Speaking of which... God was that small. Should have just made it a no update week and bundled this in with next week's. Though, I did get excited seeing Vic. Had to Lol at this though: We've chained @JagexDrew to his desk. 500 RTs in the next hour with #BringBackVic & we'll release Vic today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoko Kurama Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Finally have one ethereal outfit, at least (blood), so glad I was able to get that. Also got Serpentine Wand for shits and giggles, not bad. That's really all I wanted. I did consider camping Barb Assault for FM experience, and then converting it to some other skill, but not with these rates, lol. Glad I don't have to do anymore Barb Assault, if the rates were reasonable, it would have been too tempting to ignore doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Got 1065 tokens, my feelings echo others' here. I COULD buy one piece of the Ethereal and have 5 total pieces for a set, but what's the point? I'm 99 Runecrafting.Seeing how I only have a single Golem piece, that's even further away from a set. I honestly could not give a [bleep] less about Golem unless I could get the beautiful color-changing combined set, and obviously that won't happen l0lHave to say TY JaGEx for including RIT though, that was a surprise and I might actually get those, unless someone can tell me a real benefit to getting an Ethereal set?EDITAlso is there a roster of value for the BXP of different skills? I'm wondering which ones I should prioritize in what order... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blutters Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Well, I must say I'm incredibly more grateful for Vic now.I'd been planning on buying a 200 TH Keys package for a little while now, just waiting until there was no promotion so that I could get enough Rare Item Tokens for the Golden Cane for the outfit in my current signature.I'd assumed - even fatally, you could say - that the Tokens would be relatively common. However, despite freezing 9 categories on every chest (lots of Frozen Heart Tokens from forever ago), I got one (1) Token chest out of all of those, for an amount around 500.To be frank, I'm never too keen on dropping that kind of irl cash on this kind of stuff, and I probably would have been fairly disappointed to have spent that much for so little progress towards what I actually wanted.However, thanks to Vic, I was able to basically convert the sheer amount of BXP I received from Fallen Stars into enough Tokens for the Cane (with a little supplement from Agoroth, lol). I dunno if anyone else on these forums really cares about TH cosmetics, but it would seem this is probably the only [somewhat] feasible way of getting those Rare Item Tokens without spending far, far more than I did, or waiting for a specific TH promotion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel555555 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 4/15 golem pieces from saving up all bxp since last vic... Whats the hourly points looking like for barb/heist farming. [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorator Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I think including rare item tokens was one of the things they did right with Vic. I'm not buying them, because I don't care a whit for cosmetics, but I know that many others care about them a great deal, so it's nice to see them have a way of earning those rewards other than "buy more keys". (Especially since the tokens are so very, very rare.) Now if only they hadn't borked the exchange rates all to heck and people could actually reasonably obtain the golem/ethereal outfit pieces... 4 Obtained quest cape and base 92 before obtaining any 99s!

Jeffery Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Holy poop that new TH promo is op (I assume this is the place to post as it's technically tied with this week's update) If the chainsaw works as it is intented (100 charges per a recharge it stats in the article) that's 100 chops @ crystal trees for double xp, 40k xp from 1 item? I hope these are rare as hell, I guess on the plus side it's encouraging people to actually train the skills rather than just gift xp. 180th to 99 Divination + 1st W36er Rambo, cannot pk call your friends bro :).

I know Protean was a concept for inventing as well as portables. I just wonder what will happen now, do these concepts get scraped for inventing, do they get some with some kind of lesser bonus than the paid versions? 180th to 99 Divination + 1st W36er Rambo, cannot pk call your friends bro :).

Pretty sure if it's released as a TH item, it's not going to be released in another form. They have said that there's at least some Inventor stuff that they'll release as high-level content across a couple different skills at some point; it hasn't all been cannibalized by TH.
