I am looking forward to the Off-hand Dungeoneering weapons! :) The Charm Imp is cool and everything, but will we ever see something similar for gold pickup? If so would have to be super pricy like 1m tokens?

Wow, great Behind the Scenes video! I'm very excited for the Charming Imp, plus the HTML 5 beta program. I hope I'll be able to participate. It's fascinating to see how our game is continuously evolving :) !

Seems awesome! But hopefully Jagex, you have thought this through properly. You want to ensure each area has been implemented into html 5 correctly, I think that higher level players who can access said areas should have higher priority; even if it is over people who pay more. Think about your loyal players for this beta please ;)

Can't wait for the charm imp! I was just wondering how much xp you would receive per charm or if it would matter which charm etc etc. Also what is the date of it's release either way looking forward to dunging all weekend to get it on it's day of release!

You have to keep in mind, when they made things like the herbicide, the reason the price was so low for something like that was because you didn't get to keep the herbs, and all you got was a measly 5 exp per herb. No one would buy something like herbicide if it was more than what they priced it as. When you use the charm imp though, you keep the charms on top of the imp giving you a tad bit of experience, not to mention it has features that allow you to customize it which i don't believe herbicide has. I've not purchased it because the small experience and loss of sometime valuable herbs doesn't seem worth it even for free. Not to mention, a lot of people have been asking for something to pick up charms because of how tedious it is to do so when killing large amounts of monsters especially with the new ability bar where, if you spend too long getting drops, you lose your adrenaline. So there are a lot more factors to this Imp than there were to the Herbicide. Also, a lot of people have been asking for something that picks up charms for you, giving it even more demand which means people will be more likely to actually go and put in that effort for it. I personally think it's a fair price, I was actually stunned it was so low because I was expecting it to exceed the price of any other prizes because of how many people could use this imp. Because of Drygore weaponry, the number of chaotics being purchased will go down thus threatening to make dungeoneering another useless skill, something like this ensures that no matter how rich a player becomes, this skill still has something to offer.

Wait, I thought the Beta was supposed to be for Premier Gold and Silver Members only. The BTS makes it sound like anyone can be in it, which, quite frankly, ruins the major selling point of the Gold/Silver membership. Do we at least get a higher priority?


Other than that, summoning imp seems pretty great. Though at 100k tokens it seems pretty expensive considering the herblore equivalent is 34k (I know herbicide doesn't pick up). Maybe 2x the cost instead of 3x would be more appropriate?
