It isn't all supposed to be about instant efficiency, though. Aren't games supposed to involve some effort? ^^' - And what is the point of regular teleports now? We might as well remove them from the game, why would you ever need to use them.

Running from one place to another isn't effort, it's just time consuming. You are still perfectly free to walk between destinations if you want.

It is not about we prefer to walk, we are complaining because this undermines other teleport methods such as elf crystals, POH... Lodestones are waayyy to OP

Yes, they should have quest reqs. But I have completed within the light, and I have no desire to keep recharging my teleport crystal. I'd prefer spending my time enjoying the game.

Making RS easier week by week, gotta love it lol. Guess there's still the good ol' osrs if we want to play the real thing again that was actually more challenging.

I am very excited about the 6th age beginning next week, or did I misshear that part?

More lodestones, sweet!

I'm interested to see what changes this update will bring to the Glory/Clue scroll teleport scrolls though....

Why are people like this? why are lodestones killing the game and making it easier? One of the reasons I don't play 07 is the fact that I have to spend time travelling from a place to another rather than enjoying the game itself (minigames, bosses etc).

It's like big cities. You'd rather just teleport to your destination rather than spending a long time in a car or a bus or whatever doing nothing.

Plus, it gives them the opportunity to increase the distance between cities and towns. Because in Rs3 the draw distance will be increased and the world feels a lot smaller. But they cannot increase the distance between cities as you'll have to spend an hour to get from a place to another this way?

Law runes are not useless. I still use them to go to my house, Trollheim for GWD. Fairy rings, they bring you to other planes and some places can still be reached easier with them. Same with Spirit trees. I've planted one in Port Sarim so that after using explorer's ring I can use it to go to the Ge easily.

You are complaining about dead content. Wasn't Tyrannwn dead content? What about the Fremennik province? Why? Because they were areas that couldn't be reached easily. Now they will all be more popular.

If they want to release a crystal city and other features to Tyrannwn, they should introduce a new way to go there easily, because it'll soon be dead content.

I don't get why people think that in Runescape, we have to spend a ton of time just travelling from a place to another.

I know, exploration is a nice thing. But it's not like we do not have to explore anymore, as lodestones need to be unlocked first before they can be used and some of them also need quests.

Please think twice.

^this was my first tought

Other than that, this is great! No need to walk to Tirannwn or use those stupid tiny elf crystals. Now the sixth age has shown that Tirannwn is an existing plane. Thank the mages for finding out about lodestones.

Most convenient update ever! Thanks!

Jagex, I am reading your forums thread and us players are not happy with this update, as you can clearly see. If this is supposed to be the year you listen to us ("supposed to be&quot ;) then please hear us out. Lodestones really need some restrictions placed at the very least. Since you do not seem to go back on implementing content I've noticed, at least do damage control with what you've done.

On a side note, I made a fresh account last week and with 1 Agility and full steel armor on I ran across the entire world before I ran out of energy. Besides shortcuts, the skill is dreadfully slow to train compared to nowadays and useless now with all these lodestones. So now my question, how do you plan on fixing Agility?
