Saradomin_Mage Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Don't forget that meteorites are probably adding a lot of damage done that otherwise wouldn't have happened. 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...

This is simply letting players know that it gives XP, it's not claiming that it's the only reward from turning them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 It gives XP and damages Tuska afaik, but doesn't award you any reward currency for doing so. 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...
Miss Lioness Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 The question at hand is, how much damage does it do to Tuska? Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'

Kimberly Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 That's virtually impossible to find out on our own. It needs jmod confirmation. Stands to reason it's probably not equivalent to a full round's worth of damage to Tuska, though. Skill based gathering historically has been so insignificant that it might as well not be considered at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sy_Accursed Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I think its pretty much a given that it does damage Tuska. The entire pop up thing is about throwing it in to the portal in order to damage her! It's not ambiguously worded or vague or round about the houses it literally goes oh look you got a shiny rock, go throw it in a portal on tuska to damage her! 1 Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hajutze Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 How does the WP thingy work. If I get Saradomin gloves for example does that increase the chance of getting the other parts from GWD too ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arceus Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 If memory serves, claiming Saradomin gloves from this event (Tuska) does not increase your chance of receiving Sara warpriest as a drop from the appropriate Saradomin GWD mob. You still have the same chance of obtaining it whether or not you purchased a piece during this world event. You would have had to buy a piece during World Event 1 to get this effect. I do remember reading it somewhere but after a good twenty minutes of searching I can't seem to dig up anything affirming one way or the other.

saywuuuut Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I never paid too much attention to the lore and everything of Runescape, especially in the past few years - but I always thought Saradomin was more popular? Was I mistaken or was there a shift recently? Didn't Sara's side beat Zamorak in the first world event too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara was more popular but then they actually included him in content and he was an utter self-serving dil bag - basically begs off as regretting doing bad stuff then immediately does it again plus very much a my way or I smite you kinda guy. Like even frigging Bandos recognised different people had different ideals and respected you for it, but Saradomin don;t believe his exact brand and he goes all smite crazy on you.

Aw, that's disappointing to hear. I always thought Sara = Good, Zammy = Bad, and then there's Guthix in the middle. Probably should do a bit more research and at least find out what these newer gods are all about while I'm at it. Thanks for the insight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strilmus Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 granted, Bandos had to destroy an entire planet to realize that he shouldn't burn down everything for the hell of it, but Saradomin's destroyed at least SEVERAL planets and he still hasn't figured out what his mistake is the "traditional" 3 god lore was from the earlier days of rs and was the predominant belief of saradomists in the f2p world up until the 6th age started bringing that lore back from members into the whole of rs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss_Kozlov Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Sara is very much a spin on some medieval Christianity. Just the bonkers nature of it. Back after a 5 year TIF hiatus. Please don't mind me too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temple of Ikov (the first mention of Armadyl) was in 2002, Dig Site (first mention of Zaros) was in 2003.# Very true, to the observant player the 3 God thing died very early on, though arguably Dig Site did not name Zaros if memory serves and he was first referenced in a postbag from the hedge truely. Plus I don't think Armadyl was actually given god status in any lore before the GWD dungeon. From what I recall the 'original' plot for the gods way back when was the 4 gods - with Zaros being the secret they tried to hush up, which is kind of ironic when you think we learnt more about Armadyl, Bandos, Desert Pantheon, Seren and even kinda Marimbo before Zaros really was given anything more than a name. granted, Bandos had to destroy an entire planet to realize that he shouldn't burn down everything for the hell of it, but Saradomin's destroyed at least SEVERAL planets and he still hasn't figured out what his mistake is the "traditional" 3 god lore was from the earlier days of rs and was the predominant belief of saradomists in the f2p world up until the 6th age started bringing that lore back from members into the whole of rs What other planets did Saradomin destroy/help destroy aside from the Naragi homeworld? We don't really have specifics but it is heavily inferred he has been going around worlds and being a douche to those who don't submit to his will in the same way he did to the Naragi We know he got all the centaurs killed and that he assumed control of the icyene home world and he sank/drowned one of the talking head thingies at Entrana Plus we do know he/his followers played a big part in the destruction/removal of other gods followers post Zaros on Gielinor. Not to mention the whole GWD thing - gave each army an amulet as a sign of good will but they are spying devices and stole the Armadyl crossbow Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
