Prediction: I've noticed we can climb the ladders up onto the wall, an update that appeared after the last quest. After this quest, there's dialogue with guards about zammies on the wall (either 'on' or 'at' who knows) but I think the next quest will involve climbing up and repelling them from there. It could be that we have to drop boulders on them? at the points where our spikes do not defend. We might have to go out and repair parts of our wall / defences in-between 'waves'. Eg: guards yell out 'zombies at north-east wall!' etc. Or we equip our guards to defend for us, and instead of offline-experience it'd give us offline-loot? :P

As for the update itself, pretty good! those lvl 150 armoured phantoms are hard hitters though, and I've not figured out how to stop them healing (besides attacking their 'core' which seems to have A LOT of health). Anyone managed to get the codex yet? Bob says:

2 glaring things so far:

a) The new crypt is supposed to be instanced until May 10, but guess what? It isn't.

b) Edimmu are supposed to be counted for "Ghost" tasks, but nobody told the guard in the Edimmu Resource Dungeon.

Can you kill Eddi in POD if on ghost task?

Quest was great, the dialogue was well written. Or not written, depending on who you talk to. Slightly disappointed that Raptor didn't relay how unimpressed they were with my feats, or give the little 'heh' to show they are amused by anything done right.

Jagex actually posted a guide for Raptor dialogue yesterday on Reddit. Those catch phrases were missed completely.

There was some more overhead dialogue I missed, this time from the group of guards. At this point I will assume it is unfixable. There must be no way to make the chats linger an extra tick. Disappointed to accept this apparent truth.

The combat adjustments to the previously useless abilities are solid. I just finished building and already got a Zemo cluster task lined up. I definitely like having Raptor there as a slayer master, a fine addition to my crew.

Couldn't tell ya.


Also, apparently Eddimu aren't counted as "Undead", either.

Does anyone at Jagex know what Quality Assurance even is?

Well, I quickly found one major problem. The new slayer cave is tiny. The instance holds 6 players but the cave only supports 4.

Imagine if it wasn't instanced. I don't consider this as progress.

It should be 1 player, 1 instance. Like various other activities/locations.
