I don't see why everyone is so up in arms about the darts. It's 4 kills. If most people are like me, then they're going to save themselves a lot of heartache and bank by using the darts on harder bosses. Personally, I've fought Nomad anywhere between 20 and 25 times. Made it to Berserk every time, but can't win, no matter what I do. Instead of spending my entire bank of food and such, I can use a dart and end it there.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's another case of players getting ****** that "My achievement means nothing now!", when that is sadly not the case. YOU know you did it, and what other people did/think of you shouldn't matter at all.

I dunno, this all seems a bit... dodgy. I mean, they're being implemented well enough, untradeable, and a choice of only four, but best of all, no affiliation to the SoF or the Store... That pleases me to no end.
I just feel that a bit of care should be taken, especially with the Instakill Dart. While I imagine that the intention of the dart was to be used on something like a GWD boss, I do wonder what will become of quest bosses. Many of the combat oriented quests pin their plots to the final battle, for example, Nomads Requiem, and The Void Stares Back. If this dart works on quest bosses, it kinda shoots lore in the foot. Nomad is meant to be all hepped up on Soul Power, yet if the dart works on EVERYTHING, he can be taken out with ease. Likewise, why do I care about the mystical powers of the Valluta or Korasi's sword, when I know that they were effective nullified by a dart?
Gameplay-wise, whatever, I know that I killed Nomad with a BGS, and if someone is now able to dart him, that's no skin off my back. But lore-wise, I can see it ruining a good bit of story in many quests.

"All in all this totals up to a value of over $45!"
Great jagex is now comparing spins, xp, and in game items directly to irl money.
Id like to ask if the instakill dart works on nex? and do u acutally have to run out of brews or can i just use it whenever?
also id like to say the rewards are very unbalanced,
you can completely rule out the first 2 choices as they both are next to useless compared to potetionally being able to solo nex in 1 hit 4 times by picking the darts or you can pick the depo box and maybe use it barraging green dragon bots and put the hundreds of d bones/hides u get into it and make a lot or, sell it on the ge.
=)

I don't like the experience. It will not be a double exp item it will be something similar to a exp lamp. When you get the experience it does not feel authentic. It's almost like botting. I almost don't want to use it but I won't let the free 1.05m pass.
About the instakill dart I think it is a good idea if Jadex puts restrictions. For example you can't use it on quest bosses.
