This is Ridiculous

They Updated pyramid plunder, so that now all Traps, Scarabs, and mummies, etc, give A LOT more damage now.
You can die in pyramid plunder, and your xp/hour is decreased by a lot.

They made Glacors, Ganodermic Beasts, Literally every single Slayer Monster so strong, that I have been splashing by using water spells (the weakness to Steel Dragons), for 10 splashes in a row? What gives???? Ganodermic Beasts gave you like 300k Mage xp/hour, now its way less than that.

Bandos Chestplate special, is stupid, only 26 damage?? But you update the nex/barrows to make them more Overpowered than Bandos??
Todays update is really bad, I thought the sof updates were worse, but this is just.. terrible.

.

The only good thing about todays update is noting potions which used to be untradeable (Serum 207, etc), decanting them, and now selling them.

Yeah a lot of these slayer monsters were really buffed up, guess Nex armour > all over Armour once again

The tiers of these armours are just not right…
nex gear is about 50% better than tier 70 gear.. such a joke

Damn. The legit thief's will not like this much. Although I suppose there are other ways to train thieving fast now.

I was really looking forward to getting 99, and getting the max cape.
Been doing Slayer for a month now legit, and It wasn't so bad.

But after todays update, its literally impossible to enjoy slayer anymore.

Guess this kills my plans to get crims as well :| Happy that I didn't jump straight into tbh would of been worse if I bought all the kit and stuff then found out using the script, slayer monsters all seem to been buffed up too much, they will hopefully work around this again because there is no way that a legit person who doesn't have the cash to splash for nex equipment or whatever can go through all this legit :|

Yeah I headed over to waterfiends, Icefiends, and Dag's. Charm and xp rate is so bad :(

I managed to stay at dag's, following your guide, for around 60k mage xp then got crashed. Got 125 crims.

Damnit.

I think this thieving update is specifically targeted at Suomi.. Why? Because thieving is the only skill he has left.. Specifically, they're trying to keep him in the game longer so they made it harder/slower to level? :l

Just speculation though..

Well lvl 90 has 8x has much xp as lvl 70. And Jagex said that they weren't going to follow the trend of increasing armour linearly. I personally like the armour upgrade. It makes you want to have nex / pop armour because they're actually worth having now.

Thank goodness. Hearing that they had butchered the buffs was ridiculous. I think they are getting a little bit too out of hand in regard to the way that they are adjusting the game to the Eoc update. It's like they're not thinking it through before releasing the update.

Tbh I was going to keep my torva no matter if there was a drop, but the armour difference at maxed combat…well it's not that different to over types of armour imo I tested it out for a few hours done a few calculations and dragon was just under parr with torva :|

Just curious, has anyone try out the player-own-port armor?

2013-01-17 08:02:13

Hahah, they made tetsu look so bad graphically now
Id still pick barrows > pop armor

all nex sets crashed to pre buff levels atm though. not sure how the market works anymore. apparently nex is easier is all. I'm sure jagex can make easy monsters harder and make nex easier -.-

2013-01-17 09:51:10

Ill buy torva back once its fully crashed
