Ok, you've got one point. The POH makes space in your bank. Those books alone would take up a lot of space.

In fact, however, the value of the POH has been diminished by loadstones. I haven't made one teletab since loadstones. The only time I use the teleport room is when I'm finished making flatpacks (which, as you know, are totally useless except for getting construction xp).

The point I had made wasn't just about the POH, it's that loadstones make other parts of the game redundant as well.

I haven't either, but that's because I buy them, for the most part. (Occasionally I make them, when I can't get them quickly enough from the grand exchange) I use them for going to and from my house not just for flatpacking (since I have completed enough fremmenick tasks, I can add them to the miscellania coffers, which helps offset costs without having to alch them), but also the items I mentioned above. I also use them for other places too, places that already have a lodestone and have had for some time. Which is not to say I don't use lodestones, I do. But again, other teleportation methods are a)quicker and b)can be used during combat. And teletabs will always be useful for taking up only one space in your pack vs multiple spaces for runes.

I use all teleportation methods pretty regularly, to be honest. Yes, even the dwarf carts. I don't find that lodestones are diminishing the game at all.

Frankly, all of the complaints I've seen about this update so far in this thread remind me of nothing so much as hearing older folks complain about how easy kids have it these days. Of the "I walked 10 miles to school every day - in the snow!" variety. I view that kind of complaining the same as the type in this thread - ridiculous. Things change. That's life. And IMO, the game is changing for the better (for the most part). My motto is to be nice if I can, but also to not suffer trolls.

I disliked much - the old way of having to carry tele runes (unless i home tele to lumby and run up to the bank) Very tedious.


I play games for fun, not to go through tedious processes and pinching for inventory space in case I don't feel like running 5 minutes back and fourth - to enjoy the game-play.


Less running is cool with me but I agree that it should be no simple task to possess unlimited loadstone rights. I use them 100 times a day and the value is nothing. Make them worth more to us

I don't support this. This makes many teleportation options obsolete and really will take away from the feeling of being far away from other players in remote locations. This game doesn't need to get much easier. I do appreciate you trying to help us out though!

Sorry for the rage, I'm just so ****** at the people who are like OMG EasyScape. I'm just saying, play the game how you want to play it, and if you want to grind out your skills using the methods that aren't OP or use the tel

You are too ignorant to understand. If people who hate new lodestones won't use em doesn't make a difference. When new players are able to "complete" the game twice as fast as the veteran players have. This update makes the game too easy for new players and this update has no use for veteran players because we have earned our teleports etc.

I think that when you create a new account it should come with all quests complete and with all 99s complete also. A lodestone should be added to every 10x10 square and u just click on the map to tele. Decent armour should be available in unlimited amounts at spawn points. Lets really nerf this game to make it a lot more fun and an enjoyable experience for all!

This game is getting F-ing easy ....
Every veteran player hates this.
Every noob/newcomer loves this.
Because veterans have no need for this update, only makes the game easier for new players.

I really do hope you realize that the 83K odd players logged in includes 07.....

And don't even get me started that the majority wanted EoC please

I doubt it, but if you can prove it, go ahead. Else why have the separate numbers?

And eh. There's always going to be a vocal minority that rages in the forums, for both good reasons (*cough* starborn diamonds *cough*) and bad. It gives a bit of a rose-tinted view of what the community likes and doesn't like, and shouldn't be used to make broad-sweeping statements about things like EoC and the like.

I do remember all the excitement when they announced that EoC was coming, though. Lots of positive reactions.

If memory serves me right, there was confirmation in the HLF somewhere that the counter DOES include 07 and EoC accounts. Now, I can't prove it myself because I don't have access to it, but I am sure someone from HLF can confirm it.

And yes, there is a vocal minority, but there's a catch to that. If feedback is needed, who do gaming companies turn to? the vocal minority. what is a general representation of the macrocommunity (no, not the bot)? The vocal minority. So yes, while there is a "vocal minority", they very much have the majority of the power in MMOs, so do not try to pull that argument with me; it's about as weak as Pro-EoC'ers saying Pre-EoC was bad because of the RNG.

Also, have you ever thought that you're part of that "vocal minority" since you're speaking your opinion on forums?

When i got 99 rc I had made a lot of cash to pay for my other skills.

People that say "so if you dont like the lodestones dont use them and just grind the skills out as you used to" just dont get it. RC used to be dangerous and so the price of runes reflected the effort and risk player put into doing the skill. Now you dont need glories for abyss due to lodestones and so pkers are non existent. Also there are no runners as the profit from rc is so low. The rc cape has gone from being one of the best to one of the worst, even more of a joke than hunter cape!

Why would anyone grind out rc the old way when there is no use for runes, so no profit, and no fun? Now you grind out rc using runespam which is sooo totally boring and obv makes no cash. The wildy used to be a fun place to go, but now the only people you run into are bots killing dragons.
