Meh. Will affect me in the future. But not now.

Gravestones? Meh. I like the idea, but it seems we have too many interfaces now :P

Over-all, 6-7 out of 10. Usually I'm excited about updates, but not this one.

Hahahaha, you do have lovely hair.
Also, I really like the updates to dungeoneering, and gravestones as well.
Good job Runescape Team!

Hiya,

I'm Andi from the group who goes by Dung Smith (located in Dungeoneering Help). I'm glad to see experience rates increased, but a concern I have is the resources. Will we be seeing complexity 6 spawning more resources similar to the spawn rate of complexity 3. It's hard to manage good rock spawns on complexity 6 than complexity 3. Sometimes you can go an entire floor without seeing the rocks.

I'd love to hear a response whether the resources will be boosted a bit in both solo and teaming.

I don't usually watch BTS vids but since DG is my favourite skill I thought I'd check this one out and I've got to say I'm really not looking forward to this DG update.

First of all, he said in the vid he was getting 400k/hr doing meds, he also said that it was better to do meds solo if you couldn't complete 2 larges/hr. I'm not a terribly fast DGer but at 120 DG I currently get about 340k/hr doing sub 25 min. larges for low warped. So it seems to me that soloing will infact be slightly faster than DGing in groups.

One of the main reasons I enjoy DG so much is because it is a primarily group-based skill. It seems to me that this update will promote more people to solo DG as well as giving bots the advantage thus making it even harder to find teams and removing part of the population from the group-based community. In my opinion there should still remain some disadvantage to training DG solo.

Grifenmyster since you have 120 dung that you probably leeched
or played with frends, you have no idea how does 90% of dung comunity feel,
that play with random noobs on w32.... i mean every time i host floor
there is at least 1 or 2 quiters or noobs who dont know how to mgt.
So after they quit i have to rehost same floor 2 or 3 times before i can finish it
and even with rehosting it takes minimum 40 min to finish large floor.

Problem is that nobody made guides on dung so people have on idea how to
play in groups of 5 people, so most of players are just noobs and cry
about deaths and no food in dung. They also have no idea how to make
money or how to use charms in your advantage.

I dont even want to talk about basic lack of knowledge on boss fights,
becouse nobody is reading rune wiki or watching youtube guides.

Problem is that there is to many stupid kids that god plenty of time
to play same floor again and again and again and dont mind quiting after 1 death.

I realy hate dung becouse if i find few frends that arent total noobs
they quit dunging after they get their first chaotic, becouse they
were so frustrated to get it... you cant imagine what it takes to get to 85 dung.

There is so much pain and frustration and rage becouse you are forced
to play with random idiots that have no idea and just rage quit every time.

Today i joined "dungeonites" cc so im gonna try that out :)
I cant wait for solo dung update, becouse its gonna save me so much time and xp.
Im just gonna start soloing dung*, except last one, so i can prestige with max xp.

Yay!! Can't believe I won something for once. :P Thanks!! <3 :D

As for the BTS vid this week, I'm sooooooooo pumped!! I honestly was looking forward to this the most! Well this & now EoC, too! Good to hear we'll be getting a change regarding binds in the future, too. :) Going to dungeoneer my rear off after they're both released.

Gravestone update will be very very helpful, also. I do have a question, though: what if you die in an area with aggressive mobs & constantly get attacked while trying to access the interface? Will you be constantly interrupted & interface closed before you can get everything in time? Being on semi-slow internet, myself, I'm a little worried about not being quick enough to push that Take-all & Equip-all buttons before my interface is force closed from being attacked. :c
