Vorkath the Drocolich
Quick find code: 16-17-992-66290443
Of course we are getting lots of new rewards, including BiS ones, as well as brand new city seize kind of gameplays, from the Vorkath updates. I think these are well narratives on the news blog on the Runescape.com website and the Jmod Livestream yesterday.
I found there are many things we might have learned from the Vorkath updates well worth discussing aside from the obviously great rewards.
Mod Dragon said Vorkath is her largest project, and when we already knew she has been involved in a lot of bigger graphics projects like Adrasteia in many quests, Necromancy, Het Oasis and such, especially Adrateia is modelled after herself, she probably has hinted on we may see Vorkath or other similar dragons in many future updates. After all, Mod Dragon isn't called Mod Dragon for no reason, right?
We certainly have a lot of dungeons in RS3 and we can go dungeoneering, we may see a lot of dragons too. Dungeons and dragons... they go in pair. It can't be wrong.
The other thing which may be very significant to all future RS3 graphics updates, especially with tied-ins to OSRS, is the OSRS character graphics models may not work in RS3. Most of OSRS's NPCs are stationary with very few animations involved. The problems with rigging a 3-legged "dragon" in OSRS which is actually not a dragon from existing dragon models exposed a lot of issues, especially when the artists want to animate such sitting ducks. That said, even if we get more of those sitting duck OSRS "bosses" to RS3, the chance is they will look very, very different with very different stories too of course, as RS3 NPCs.
