dwarfie76 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Am I alone in thinking that the rate at which we now fail agility obstacles has risen since the last update? About a week ago I put myself to the task of completing MEII and got as far as the handholds before deciding my agility wasn't up to scratch. Off to train a few levels I went and for a time everything was going swimmingly. Now, since Tuesday's (my time) update it seems my failure rates are absolutely abysmal. Having the benefit of an almost side by side comparison I don't think it's just a case of me looking at my past performance through rose coloured glasses. Prior to the update I'd collected 25 tickets at the Brimhaven arena and not been caught on the darts once (at around level 59), afterwards it was taking me three or four attempts each time with potions. Where previously a fail on the Ape Atoll course was a rarity, it's a red letter event when I can get around without failing now... and my level has increased - it should be getting easier not harder. Were we nerfed or am I just having a run of bad luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noproblem22 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Hell I'm 62 agility (soon to be trained) and I fail those damn darts so much. Also the monkey course hates me for some reason. Just stick with wildy, its best in my mind, atleast thats what I'll do lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koddo Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 You were just having a run of incredibly good luck before, to not get hit by the darts once at level 59... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smapla Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I spent an hour each time trying to get across those handholds in that quest. WHAT A PAIN. just bring lots of super energy pots and some prayer potions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmoneyak Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 brimhaven isnt a good place to level wilderness agility on world 2 , 66,or 78 is your best bet to get your level up. at 80 go to ape atoll if you really like agility.

Mollerz Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Do Ape Atoll or wilderness course. If you get bored do Brim for a level. Works for me quite well :D Click my signature for my blog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I have done Brimhaven Agility Arena since level 40 agility. Occasionally, I'd go and give the Wildy course and the Ape Atoll and the Werewolf courses a try, but then I'd get bored after a liittle while and head back to Brimhaven. Either that or I'd get killed at the Wildy course and then go do the Brimhaven. You do have runs where you get good luck. Sometimes, at lvl 43 I could do the darts and fail 3 out of 10 times. And then I'd get runs where I failed everytime I tried them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost8810 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Cakes are free when you steal them :P and you can eat them in bites, so if you fall you can immediately take a bite back to full hp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian5kamikaze Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Actually cakes are good because on agility courses the lower your health the less damage you take so you can stay around 10hp n take 2 damage as oopposed to full hp and take 5-7 damage.

dwarfie76 Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 Thanks guys... Glad to see it's just me and we haven't been nerfed. I guess I should be thankful for the run of good luck I did have. (Seriously you should have seen me dodge those darts there for a while) I like the Ape Atoll course... better XP per lap than Wildy, no pkers, no skeletons taking swipes at you, pick monkey nuts off the bush at the top of the course for food and when you're done you can just tele back to your point of choice.
