I really enjoyed the quest today.

E:

And I should add I despised this entire quest line and wanted to burn it in a fire.
Meaning today's quest was surprisingly really good given the quest line. 181m Slayer XP and 37,963 Edimmu slain for my Dungeoneering pet. Slayer is still the worst skill in the game.

Early quests were quite tedious with the lack of all the conveniences we have today so I never was a big fan of the storyline either back in the day, although modern rs/medallion teleports made me actually like it. Today's quest was really good considering it was developed by someone other than the person who was working on the storyline the past years. I can't think of anything I disliked, except for the ending perhaps. In the end the player gets really mad and for the rest of the quest there is an unreasonable negativity towards the vyres. Safalaan also dying (or did he?) just like that was a bit unnecessary, everything could have happened the same way without him dying. This part of the quest was actually a little unclear, and could change in the future (we assume he died when he didn't, the body was taken away) but for the time being it seems the developer wants him dead. I think it would be cool if he became a vyre and ruled over morytania or something idk.. Hi

I'm like 3-4 quests behind again :( Are the new ones good?

Quests are so infrequent I can't remember the previous 3 quest releases :(

From rs wiki:

The Lord of Vampyrium - Amazing
The Light Within - Seren version of Fate of the Gods, albeit less epic
Hero's Welcome - Nice lore here and there, expanded a lot into Dragonkin
Dimension of Disaster - This came out in MARCH <_> quest releases are rare these days

Did some damage tests using sun/sickles/offhand dry mace and massacre bleeds.

For both mainhands, massacre bleed ticks hit 100 more on vyres, so the cremation bonus should be a thing for both the new blisterwood weapons and sun. Additionally, sun is better than sickle (no surprise here).

Also, it seems that an offhand sickle not only does not provide extra damage but that higher level offhands do work (provided you don't auto attack with your offhand) and even hit more (offhand sickle behaves as a standard level 70 offhand when using abiities, even excalibur beats that apparently). This is sad because sun/dry is the best setup and blisterwood items have no use now (people won't mage/range when you can burn the corpses instantly for more xp and loot). Hi

Approx. 50~ minutes of killing Vyre. Not bad.

Could be more if I was tryharding the entire time. I was mostly AFK w/ revo for 15~ minutes.
