Recommended Posts

The year ends on us,

 

 

 

Jagex gave updates plenty

 

 

 

some liked, some did not.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With that lame Haiku, offer up your nominees for best updates of 2006.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to nominate:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Post your THREE choices for best Runescape Updates this year. List your choices clearly as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Choice 1 - reason

 

 

 

Choice 2 - reason

 

 

 

Choice 3 - reason

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The order does not matter as each choice is 1 vote. You don't have to give a reason, but it would be nice. In addition, if you give more than three, I'll just take the first three of your list.

You're allowed to nominate 3 things from the entire year. Expect many votes on different things, so it's best to give 3 chooses.

Three updates that I thought were good were...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

~ Mage Training Arena (04-Jan-2006)

 

 

 

~ Construction =)

 

 

 

~ Pyramid Plunder with its useful Pharaoh's Sceptre and fast exp. (17-July-2006)

77 Combat || 1620+ Skill Total || Owner of Fire Cape

I'd say the Stronghold of Security and the Construction Skill. Maybe Pest Control also, I think Toast pretty much summed up why this wasn't that good of an update.

Expecting a good life because you're a good person is like expecting a bull not to charge because you're a vegetarian.

Doesn't work for me. :^o

Try having your mouse cursor over your bank window and use scroll wheel again

Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Browsing the news archives to make sure to not forget anything that arent mentioned already:

 

 

 

Fairy tale 2 - use of Fairy rings sure made it a lot easier to reach some areas.

 

 

 

Lunar Magics: I love the superglass spell, and the NPC contact in combination with the fairy rings is excellent for slayer training.

 

 

 

A bank in Lumbridge - first through the RFD chest, later on also on top floor of the castle.

 

 

 

Free lumby teleport - exellent when you have forgotten to recharge your glory or bring runes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, my votes goes to:

 

 

 

Construction: the guilded altar, the house teleport which in addition to the location of house give a new teleport spot, the teletablets and house portrals that makes moving around easy, the costume room that freed up some bankspace.

 

 

 

Royal trouble and Manage thy Kingdoom: Exellent to be able to pay my own pixel workers instead of players to collect raw materials for me. Makes my runescape life so much easier :)

 

 

 

Fairy Tale 2 and the use of fairy rings, for reasons mentioned above.

Please think before you ask a question. If you ask the right question, its much more likely you get the answer you are looking for :)
