I haven't played since Freshmen year of High School (2008?), and last I remembered I had some Barrows armor, and a Abyssal Whip. How useless is my stuff now?

Whip is less than 100k. Take that however you will. Some of the barrows sets are worth okay amounts, but none are over 5m.

It's probably worth gently caress all, but it's still fairly useful as far as gear for fighting things goes.

There goes my nipples again!
I just logged into this game for the first time since 2006. One of my old video game friends is still playing. I like to imagine that they've been there.... Playing... Nonstop since most people abandoned this game for dead.

I can't believe this is still around. I may start playing again for nostalgia's sake.

It's fine. You should be able to brute force all quests with that. Get a Bandos Godsword for like 1,5m if you want more power and are willing to give up defensive shield abilities.

On the same note, find out about abilities in general first. :v: Despite spergings, they are pretty rad.

I mostly am thinking of slapping down $5 to do some quests because I legit enjoyed a couple of them, and with the trading centre thing they would be less painless. I just don't even know where to start, because according to the wiki, I've missed like ~150 updates.

So as soon as I log in and press "Enter game", I get redirected to a error screen, with no information but "game crashed". This happens in both render modes and in several browsers. I've updated graphics card drivers, java, all that stuff. Anyone else had this problem?

No, what are you attempting to play on? PC or Mac?

Also have you given the standalone client a try?

Well, I'm out of ideas then, if you've already updated Java and your drivers. Maybe you can get into the HTML5 beta? It's buggy but it might play.

Alternatively, talk to Jagex Support or maybe pop over to SHSC and make a thread in the Haus of Tech Support (providing it's okay to do so I don't know I never go there).

Don't know if it's completely a fifth age quest because those quests have a disclaimer attached to the beginning of them, basically saying you're doing things that have already happened or something. I did The World Wakes long after BoL ended (:effort:) and it had that disclaimer.

Just because the quest is available during the fifth age doesn't make it a fifth age quest.

I guess the perpetual bitching finally worked, Special Attacks are going to return.

Also a new ability called Revolution to help reduce the amount of time you need to spend spamming keys in combat, and some refinements to PvP.

It's going to be ever better for Magic and Range since abilities don't use ammo. At least I don't remember them to? I really want revolution in the game though, wonder when it'll get added.

Holy poo poo, it even prioritizes low cooldown abilities. (Or does it just prioritize them in whatever order you have them set on the bar? Either one works and is good design by Jagex)

That's loving awesome, and superior to Momentum in literally every way.

The drawback is that you're playing Runescape.


For real though, Momentum+ is just randomized Revolution now?

Reoxygenation

Momentum plus is (from the BTS video) just momentum, but you now gain adrenaline and you can use ultimate abilities, which will not cancel momentum.

It's up to you really; revolution or momentum? Revolution sounds better I'll be honest.

Soulhunter

In all honestly momentum seems worthless (the new version or otherwise) when compared to revolution. Revolution saves ammo and completely outperforms momentum dps-wise, might as well just ditch the momentum concept altogether.

Yeah you can, you just use Revolution! It looks like it's straight up Momentum except better, even without using the Thresholds and Abilities.

What are drop tricks? Is that where I get multiple copies of an item and leave one in the bank as a placeholder? Cause if that's what that is, gently caress yeah for drop tricks.
