Reflecting on the Week.

Well since there has been no update in runescape this week, I thought it may be good to go over some updates that I haven’t gone over yet and I will include the BTS for May.

The Legacy of Seergaze…… kind of disappointing and kind of not. I’ve always enjoyed the Myreque story lines and this one seems quite interesting especially since the Saradominists and Zamorakians are plotting with each other against the Guthixian Edicts. God Wars perhaps? That is merely speculation at this point however. Somehow this manages to connect with the Myreque and you manage to forge a weapon capable of killing the vyrewatch. Enough with the story and lets get to the good part: the rewards.

2000 Agility
4000 Crafting
3000 Magic
2000 Mining
2000 Slayer
Tome of Experience, 2nd Ed – 3 chapters of 2500 experience each
Blood talisman
Ivandis Flail
Access to the Blood Altar
Paterdomus Columbarium rewards
New ‘Vyrewatch’ event in Temple Trekking/Burgh de Rott Ramble
2 QP

Rewards are not so bad. QP’s get more time with Juna in the Tears of Guthix. The ability to craft blood runes is what I’ve (and a lot of others) have been waiting for. The XP is decent also.

Now for the month of May.

Not much to say. Mostly just game tweaks which may or may not be bad. The law tally is going to be given to anyone which I personally don’t mind (some runecrafters may disagree with me) but I find that the 20k xp from the xp lamps will help me more in runecrafting than more exclusivity in the ability to craft law runes.

There is also a low level mining quest being released this month. Hopefully a decent mining update but most likely it will fall a little short. Some graphical updates to cats, Party Pete, and the TzHaar. “That’s hot!” (sorry…. I just had to throw a little joke in there…. again I apologize for the random Paris Hilton joke). The TzHaar are getting a quest in addition to the graphical updates this month. Hopefully its not a story line quest because they should at least finish one story line before starting another but I digress.

Jagex is also releasing the quick chat option. This should make some things easier especially since the muted have the option. Hopefully an “I am permanently muted” and an “”I am temporarily muted” message will be added so the muted can at least express the fact that they are muted. Now for the last update this month….. improved level up messages. I have seen a lot of the forums about this so I suppose that it looks like Jagex does read the forums to some extent. I’d be curious to see if it gets grander the closer to 99 that you are with the 99 level up message being a huge fireworks display or something like that. Who knows?

EDIT: The staff is also adding a crush-x option. It is not surprising considering the fact they added an x option to almost everything else. It is beginning to make me think that they are trying to make the game any easier. Thanks to RS Investor for reminding me to add this in.

In non-runescape related blog news, I may soon be joining Blizzard’s MMO World of Warcraft. So if I do, I’ll not only cover RS on my blog but expand it a little more to cover WoW also. That way I cover both of the MMO’s I play.

I also added an About Me section. Visit it here
