SRL Archive - RS has been updated.

Discuss the new skill and the effect of the update on the SRL include.

First observations:

- GetMMLevels need updating.

It seems to be Free to play as well!

Did this update include a new prayer also? Level 77 or has it been there for some time already?

Which is one thing i like.

EDIT: Someone wanna come raid with me? (Im lvl 74)

Is this a skill that requires armor and weapons?

you bring nother there except for the ring, i am lvl 3:)

It has mad requirements, at lvl 5 you need 90+ Cooking and fishing to pass.

wow what a horrible skill. I'm disappointed.

super challenging.

Did you try it in a party? I tried it with The Man, i hope to get bigger party today.

Sounds so lame :(
E: Wait, it's partying with other players? That could be awesome if there are decent rewards and it's not a safe game. Like raiding :) Some of the rewards listed on the gameguide are quite nice, but I don't think they are enough. Besides, it's boring if you don't get any loot from the boss kills… It's exciting when you never know if this is the Kree'Arra that will drop the hilt :)

E: WTF? Notice max level 120? :O I bet they will raise max levels in some other skills as well. I hope they don't make it so that only botters can achieve them, cause if they think someone will legitly lvl slayer to lvl 120 they're crazy :p Assuming the xp required to next level is still exponential.

And they obviously have not finished the skill yet, see the Boss list. There are only bosses to level 66…

Pretty boring, tbh. It's been over 15 minutes for level three. >_> And no drops.

It's safe, by the way.

yeah cause you die soo much at lvl 5:( been at it for a hour.


Definatly the slowest skill ever made.

GG me. Can't even get past level four.

what is going on in your game?

Your guy's discussion doesn't belong here..this thread is for things that affect SRL.
Create a new one somewhere else.

Oh, you can check how much XP you've gained since log in. Could be used, I guess.

This is just ridiculous, first you need to kill monsters to get coins, then you buy raw materials from the vendor, then you make your own armour and weapons, then you get to fight and die. Then you do all this again.

lvl 6 boss was crazyy it use this freezing rain thing that moves you and hits like 200s.

For the lvl 5 boss, our retribution did most of the damage:) it took 2 hours.

TIP:
Explorer the dungen, get all the rooms unlock and use a little resource from the spawn room as possible. Safe all the stuff for the boss.


Challenge room:
Ferret: fish vile fish, cook it and threw it on the block without holes on it.
Lever: requires 5 people, just get a friend to join via (rejoin) option.
Statue: Copy how the fixed statues look.

Boss:
*Always use retribution when near death*
L-Ice fiend:Pray Magic, and use retribution when she freezese.
Mage that ice barrages: Pray magic, go in one at a time.
- If you brought two attack style, your fine.
- If you only brought melee, kill the spiders when shes praying melee.


Am done playing this… after like 6-7 hours, I got lvl 7… BTW you can bind a item so you don't lose it upon respawn.

Neither does your backseat modding belong here.
We are talking about the new skill so the discussion *is* appropriate here.

SkillCoords needs to be updated.

Hm. :p Well I'm autoing atm with YoHoJo's PMS. It got the mining level. 'o.O

Nevermind. I guess I don't have 65535 mining. :<

Is this auto-able? Or Parts of it? Do you earn xp in the other skills? Is it worth it?

~RM

You do get exp from other skill. The dungen is custom every time, so you'll never run into the same dungen twice, but they do have like 40 different type of room design.

I'm pretty sure if you keep playing the same dungeon, it'd be semi-easily botted.

From: Rasta Magician

~RM

It will be a long script and there are many things that could go wrong and stop the script.
And no, it's not worth it. The skill is useless.

EDIT:
I tried this and I'm so disappointed. They promised a new skill, but instead they gave an expanded Stealing creations.

I believe this could be botted. It would be freaking complex to make and would take freaking much time, but in the end it could be done.

Not sure about GetMMLevels? The HP/Prayer/Run bar still works good, and it's not sure whether XP button will stay..

In other news…

The 2010 Easter event has been removed with this update.

We've added a button left of the minimap which you can toggle to show the total XP you have gained during your login session. After your feedback of this feature from the Bonus XP Weekend, this XP counter is here to stay!

I've fixed SkillCoords and SkillToCoords atm, GetSkillInfo still messes up on 2-3 skills, I'm not sure if its an OCR problem or what (it finds the characters fine).
I'm ironing them out

Easily botted update. (The new game.)

Nice idea, but it still sucks IMHO. Unless you want to spend a long time finding a group of intelligent people who understand english and are about the same level with you, and then of course you need to be online at the same time etc. this is extremely boring and frustrating. Unless they add some single-player possibilities I will most likely never train this skill any higher.

Works fine here?

Easily botted update. (The new game.)

Atleast wait until the skill settles down, lots of bugs and improvements are to be made.

Talk to me afterwards:)

Maybe I haven't looked into it enough, but has anyone else been able to find a purpose for this update? The skill itself is useless AFAIK, the rewards seem like they suck, and from what everyone else is saying it takes hours on end just to get a few lvls….

Well now that I know that you get EXP in the other skills (fishing, cooking, etc..) would botting those skills while in a dungeon be worth while? I mean it would obviously be power skilling considering you lose everything you've gained once you leave a dungeon AFAIK… But are the EXP values high enough for botting to be worth it?

116 people currently have 30+, and the highest is 37 with 29k exp. After like.. 14 hours.. it's about 2k exp/hr. And the skill goes to level 120. -_-

Like all skill, there are no points to it.


But the new chaotic maul defeats god swords in 1 hit.

Some of the things are decent, but they take hundreds of hours to get. :/

I noticed the Bone Grinder or something. It requires you to not have to pick up bones, you auto get the xp. I think this is worthwhile for fighters.

Sounds stupid, I'm getting on now though to check it out. Any potential for bugs?

F2p, members bank, no items aloud in the dungeon, kill me now.

the bank is members only?

From: Main_Ftw

No. I had a members bank, my bank is waaay over full now that it is f2p :p i cant bank, but it is a f2p bank sorry.

you scared me there mate.

Level 25 dungeoneering (floor 13) and I currently have… 819 tokens.
How exactly is it pheasible to collect even the lowest costing reward (gem pouch for 13,000 tokens) wthout killing yourself?

First, the word is "feasible". Second, I haven't the faintest clue.

I thought it isn't to bad of a game.

Well that's the problem. :/ It's more like a minigame than a skill.

who cares? its fun and new… gives me a reason to actually play again.

Bleh. I just think it takes too long. And it's not very original. (6 years of 24/7 playing = not good imo.)

I seriously doubt this is gonna be the final product. Sure, it's not the best right now, but there's a good chance it will be changed for the better.

It sucks hardcore soloing…

That's why I don't like it, probably. :p I hate combat and I've low attk/str/def, so it's really not the best for me. I do think they put a lot of work into it, which I applaud.

This new minig… I mean skill sucks.

I'm actually liking it, you get ahead if you're a skiller all around, which I like. Plus I've been with single partners the last couple times and it was pretty fun coordinating item creation and strategy between the two of us.

It is slow as balls though, but I was just thinking of it as a minigame so it didn't bother me all that much.

I'm on floor 7 already :P ! I really love this skill. Indeed it has have mad requirements. The bosses are pretty hardcore as well. I had a lot of fun with a superb team (max 5 persons). And I love that you can make in game better armours and stuff =p

I really like this update. You can wear outside the dungeons new weapons right ? When you reached a certain level and dungeon you receive new weapons, outfits etc. I think that you can wear them outside the dungeons as well but I am not sure.

You can't take the items outside of the dungeon.

Ah no wonder. Couple of months ago, Jagex said they are aiming to make Runescape more of a community-ish type. No wonder you need a group to be successful in this skill.

Anyways I hope senrath is correct.

I've been able to solo pretty easily so far, I'm up to level 8. Difficult to train though, to whoever makes it to 99, I worship you. well, unless you made it there in a day, then I'll just call you a nerd =P

Forget 99. I mean, the skill goes up to 120.

Really fun with another person, especially when all levels are above 60. Not super terrible, but yes, too much like a mini-game.
