Post subject:  RSBANDBUpdate! Episode 43 - Dropping Out

This week Pika and I are here, but Pika had a slight problem with skype so it's a bit of a shorter show.

Contents:
  • Rag and Bone Man quest
  • Well the basic quest is pretty easy and useless. However once you complete the main quest for 1qp, you can go get some more bones (28 of them) these are all over the world. You can choose between a cape and a helmet. -2 Range attack - helmet rest 0's. The cape gives +4 in all defence.
  • Armour model changes -- Chains, camo kit, certain barrows armour
  • Easter bunnies are infesting RuneScape North-west of Varrock and South of Falador. Basically go there, dig on the holes and you will get an egg. You should probably get around 10 or so and the special one.
  • Bunny jump and turn into egg.
  • New forum system. Featuring bump button, message previews, FMod and JMod colours, Smilies, profiles(rather limited), jump to forum, updated search(multiple words, not that good), updated word filter
  • Shane's Review: Looks like a real forum now, the profile is limited only lets you turn off smilies and see post count and recentposts. Although the post viewing is better than before. The server is slow -_- For example, if you enter wil in the fletching forum it won't find anything with willow in it!!! It should!!! It sorts by relevance rather than time, when I'm buying something I want to know how old it is with just looking at it... Newest is at the bottom. Very bad system.
  • Listener Questions
  • It was patch tuesdays yesterday! Meaning that windows has been updated with all those bugs we've been warning you about. I've talked to 2 people so far that said it broke their machine. So run it but be warned it could cause problems. I'll be running it later after we record. But please do run it.
  • 10th Planet found in our solar system. I thought we already had 10... But apparently they are Kupier belt objects and not planets. It is 30% greater in diameter than pluto. It has been nicknamed Xena. It also has a moon I guess you could call it called Gabrielle. Xena's takes about 560 years to orbit the sun, and it is now very close to aphelion (the point on its orbit that is farthest from the sun) http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2006/apr/HQ_06183_hubble_tenth_planet.html http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/newsdesk/archive/releases/2006/16/

    25 Years since the first shuttle went up.
  • Swedish spy agency is using google earth. A special mapping site for Sweden called Eniro has removed certain areas from the map and covered it with trees. When the road view is put on it still shows the roads. Now someone forgot to do that. So can I do this? http://www.ogleearth.com/2006/04/sweden_plays_hi.html
  • Here's that large rant we had to do partially...
    Quote:
    The good old dragon dagger... How come every pk'er is exactly the same? They do teleblock or ancients, then use the dds four specials in a row.

    IF the dagger only had two specials, people might actually use more varied weapons in the wild.

    Its not even worth my runes to attack half these people, because all they have is a DAGGER....

    Thats cool for the people with 'mains' who created a 'pure' (by breaking the rules I might add, supplying their 'pure' with supplies to level up from their 'main')....except now every pk'er is generic. They all have practically the same stats. And its all STR for the dagger special, which is ruining the game for the average player.

    What kind of person has time to re-make an entirely new character, with the sole purpose of 'dagger pk'ing'?

    How does the smallest and cheapest of the dragon weapons have the deadliest special?? Odd how a 70k weapon hits higher than one almost 3mill.

    I've created this rant many times, and all the mains with pures scream about 'thats the only way to get a ko'************* membership is expiring soon. I had taken a few months from the game, and now I remember why. The fact that all these players are making brand new characters just to dagger pk makes it painfully obvious that it is overpowered.

    Jagex, step up and do something. You KNOW its overpowered, you KNOW its abused. Maybe you KNOW it's making you more profit every month, though, since most dagger pk'ers have 2 members accounts.

    Good job, turn the wild into dagger fighting. While your at it, why not re-name the game 'Dagger Fighters'.

    I'd be suprised to actually see a Mod make an educated comment on this. Instead, I'll get flamed by pures....

    The solution is simple. Reduce the number of specials, or make their be a 2-3 second pause between specials, like entangles. Or reduce the max hit to 20.

    And how does Jagex not see this as a glitch? A weapon that can do over 200 damage, in seconds*****o fast to eat. Way 2 go Jagex.
  • We'll be back next week with a full episode.
  • Skill comparisson calculator update - you can choose to start the goal at 1 or your current level now.

Wow, did I beat the hawks and get 1st post? Its probabaly because I'm just about to say...I'll edit after I listen :lol:

~EDIT~ Wish it was a longer episode..darn lag and other technical issues :roll: When they discover another 10th planet, they should name it Runescape, just because they can...How cool would it be to say, "There's Earth, Mars, Venus, Pluto, and Runescape" :lol:

Post subject: 

Same here :D

EDIT: Never trust Eniro... Use google earth instead. Eniro should go back to a search monitor for private people and companys...
Anyways! Great show!

I actually like short episodes. I was one of the people whose explorer.exe stopped working after a Windows Update. I managed to fix it anyways :D
