Choose Your Fate!

"Choose Your Fate is a selection of four of the most powerful rewards ever seen in RuneScape. Members for the entire Sizzling Summer (1st August GMT until 30th September GMT) will be able to choose a total of four of following rewards:
•Dodging death – This nifty reward lets you come back from the death and re-spawn with all your gear still intact and life points fully charged.
•Emergency healing box – On your last legs? Don’t worry! Anyone who consumes the healing box will be healed instantly and restored to maximum life points. Better still, become a life-saver and use your healing box on your friend or clan member to heal them instead!
•Instakill dart – You're fighting for your life in the God Wars Dungeon: your health is low, and you've chugged your last Saradomin brew, but your foe isn't letting up. The answer is here. The instakill dart will kill whatever target you face with one almighty hit!
•Remote deposit box – Stuck in the middle of nowhere and need to empty your backpack quickly? Use your remote deposit box and - voila! - for 5 minutes, any player can use the deposit box to send items back to their bank."

I feel a bit disappointed with this but I understand they couldn't just hand out almighty weapons to everyone. I' excited though for the rest of the things Jagex has planned. Opinions?

I guess that they mean you get four items total and can pick what you want?

If that's the case, I'm definitely taking four darts. The first two are lame because healing is so easy. The last one is worthless if you have a yak.

Four darts means four free Nex kills ;)

Well that sounds smexy :garfield:


I can just tell from now there will be a glitch which will allow members to replicate these 'rewards'. There always is…

I don't think these are single use. Could get recharged every month or something.

He didn't post the entire article. Right below the item list it says this:

Choose wisely - these items can only be used once and will expire on 31st December 2012.

ROFL then all except the dart are useless. And who would use their one and only healing box on another player?

It will likely be similar to the Mad May necklace in that you receive double xp while using the item.

Wow, when I thought of powerful items, I assumed it would be a weapon or some type of armour.

This one single use sucks. Well it wouldn't be the first time jagex has dissapointed me.


EDIT: Btw guys, you get 4 options to choose. Meaning you can take 1 of each, a mix, or 4 of the same kind. Meaning you can get 4 insta kills.

Nah I'm kinda glad, I was hoping there wasn't gonna be rares at the best weapon in the game or if untradeable then some non-grind super weapon.

Agreed, Chaotics are the best right now, I'm glad it takes some work to get them.
