My Prayer level is 99.





Actually, my plan is to switch to Yews and Papayas because A) they're about 30% better gp/xp ratio and B) it's much less of a loss if I miss a diseased one and it dies, so I'm more able to make myself take the long view of things and accept that sometimes I'll just have bad days. With Yews and Papayas and my Elder Tree and a Calquat Tree (I actually protect my Calquat because it's inexpensive enough that I value the extra XP I get over the inefficiency in GP) I can hit 100k XP a day and still burn my whole festive aura.

Really it was that it was the first damned time I've planted anything in months and it immediately all started dying on me like crazy. My second batch of trees had one get diseased between the 12 of them, and happily I was there to cure it

So as a free player, I think I'll just raise my Smithing via track making since batch track making seems like a nice way to raise it. Also, how far can I go with Farming before the members stuff kicks in? Because it says I can grow potatoes right now.

Big ol' wall of text from Jagex regarding their plans for 2015.

Behind the Scenes - January 2015

Happy New Year! Ports expansions, boss pets and the return of Hati and Sköll await!
Boss Pets

26 tiny versions of some of the game’s most fearsome creatures? Yes please! It’s the single biggest launch of pets we’ve ever made outside of the Summoning skill launch, but these bad boys and girls are far more exclusive than normal.

Each one is rare drop, obtainable by killing their larger, more dangerous counterparts around the game. There’s a huge range available, including a mini Nex and Araxxi and a fantastic-looking tiny QBD. Keep your eyes open for a few surprises too, sneaking in from the quack… I mean back.

This is another great project built on your feedback and ideas, from the forums and via our dev blog. If you’d like to see them in action, check out the RSTV ninja episode back in December.

The Ninja Team have also been trawling the forums, social pages, and more to find out what’s been bugging you before fixing your main gripes.
Elemental and Rare Drop Table Rework

We’ve also got a drop table rework planned, this time featuring elementals and the rare drop table, which is linked to hundreds of creatures around the game.

Lots of the old, weirder drops will be removed, replaced with far more useful items like bones, bars, uncut gems and potions. Creatures affected include jellies, dust devils and waterfiends.
Hati and Sköll

The wolf pack is back, plaguing the Fremennik tribes once again with pointed teeth and blood-curdling howls. They will only be here for a few weeks in January, so make sure you hunt them down, and retrieve Eir’s spear and helmet in the process.

Large amounts of XP in a wide range of skills await, plus some pretty cool cosmetic items, if you didn't pick them up previously.
Ports update – Guardians of the World

Our main update this month is a huge expansion to the Player-Owned Ports, determined by you in the hotly contested polls last year. Agility, Dungeoneering and Divination will be the dedicated skills, so you’ll need level 90 in one or more of those skills to take part.

Perhaps the best part of the update though is the ability to send voyages out without actually needing to return to your port, making it really easy to engage with ports whilst getting on with ‘Scapin’. There’s a bunch of other smaller improvements too that'll really float your boat!

We’re introducing 3 crazy new adventurers – a mask possessing an eyeless man, a girl made entirely of divination energy and an exiled gorajo weighed down by guilt, each with unique voyages and links to the strange sea monsters that swim the eastern seas.

New equipment available includes level 85 dual-wielding weapons: a katana and wakizashi for melee, and a seasinger wand and orb for magic. There are brand new scrimshaws too, focused around fishing.

We are also introducing new “clue voyages”, which give cryptic pointers to hidden islands. Once found, these can be regularly visited for stat boosts, captain’s trait removal and the chance to find Tengu cosmetic gear.

Plus, you’ll also gain access to even more building upgrades for the port itself, which look really awesome AND can change your success chances on voyages.
Solomon's Store

Keen to keep up with seasonal trends, Solomon’s got a huge January sale planned, clearing out lots of room for his 2015 range.

There’ll be plenty of bargains to pick up and it'll be your last chance to obtain some of his older offerings, as he will be removing them from his shop in February.

The first part of his brand new range is the “Warm Winter Outfit”, designed to help keep away nasty frosty chills.
Coming Soon – RuneLabs!

Finally, don’t forget that we will be launching RuneLabs early this year: our great new way to take Player Power to the next level.

You’ll submit ideas via a brand new system, and those that get enough support from your fellow players will be reviewed by us and then - potentially - turned into content in the game!

Start thinking now and when the system goes live you’ll be ready to blow everyone away with your awesome ideas. We know that you’ve got concepts even better than ours and we can’t wait to hear all about them.

Have fun!

"Stellar" is overstating it when you look at stuff like RotM or WGS, but they're decent in general comparison to most MMO quests.

All I can say is... huh, that's an actual comment from the official Runescape channel, I'm simultaneously amazed and yet not surprised (somehow) that that happened.

Themata posted:

So I'm pretty burned out on RS3, as made apparent to me by the fact that I can barely motivate myself to stay logged on and I'm playing OSRS again. It's all the little things that Jagex never fixes like the insane startup lag, not recomping lost items that are their fault, endless waves of bugs, etc. etc. basically Jagex being :jagex:

Membership Price Changes - 1st March 2015

In November, we announced that we would be increasing the price of membership for new members and those who've been unsubscribed for more than 14 days.

Today, we can confirm that this will come into effect on the 1st of March 2015. You can find the new pricing below:
US, UK, EU, AU and CA membership prices

The price of Bonds will also increase:
US, UK, EU, AU and CA Bond prices

Once the price rises, each Bond will be redeemable for 14 days of membership, 195 RuneCoins or 15 Treasure Hunter Keys. The price rise will not affect the RuneCoin cost of Solomon’s Store items.

Did some dominion tower. That's my progress from today - also unlocked dominion sword and cbow. Got a sword as a drop too, looks really fly.

Gonna try for all gloves. What's better for grinding out 500 kills, climber, endurance or something else?

(also i'd be down for attempting rumble mode with goons)

I've become increasingly interested in starting to play OSRS again with f2p and bonds on the way. Whats different there compared to how it was at the start of the 07 version? Also what what bot is it worth to learn to script for nowadays?

Themata posted:

Looks good, I added it to the guide doc, and finally added a way to quick search them all as well.

Meanwhile in Jagexland, where bugs turn into features (see south facing camera bullshit), what happens when the bugs for a game are more severe? How does Jagex handle making that into a feature?

Why, by completely shutting the game down forever, of course!


"We don't know how to fix it, so why loving bother. We're shutting this poo poo down and giving you Runescape membership or Treasure Hunter keys. Well, unless you stocked up on it beforehand for a game that came out in 2010, in which case, ../., Have fun!"

Pina Coladas posted:

Just out of interest for now, but we know that Jagex are working on both Raids and a Mini-game Spotlight System.

So here are the answers for the contest no one cared about :

If you went with the idea that the ones that look like loving assholes were pubbies, you would've gotten them mostly right! Notice how it's always the pubbies who are edgy enough to flip the bird.

Two people entered:
Pizza Meow - 27/47
Dear Reader - 23/47

So I'll split the prize 55/45. Pizza Meow gets 11m and Dear Reader gets 9m. You guys basically got free money!
