Cracking thread, guys. Thought I'd check in to see what you consider to be Elder Artefacts!

As far as we at Jamflex are concerned, the following have been confirmed as Elder Artefacts:
- Stone of Jas
- Staff of Armadyl
- The Elder Kiln (including the TokHaar)
- Guthix's sparking sword
- Saradomin's crown

And we've hinted that a horn is also one of the Elder Twelve. That's half of them! We're hoping to explore the others soon, so expect this thread to grow!

Yes my thread is a bit out of date. Just been fairly busy irl. Far too busy to consider updating a thread. However I have a weeks holiday coming up so I shall update t then.

Thanks for posting though :D

How many times is Quin's horn even mentioned in PoP btw cause I have only heard of one instance of it. It seems to do exactly the same as the frostenhorn though.

Any chance on clarifying the powerful name thing?

I know this isn't probably the real conventional artifact we would think of, but has anyone ever thought of the Enchanted Key from Making History?

It has the power not only to locate treasures of lesser concern, but also go back in time! I know we can't really take much advantage of the time travelling thing right now, but with the right content, it could be quite understandable.

considering all the weapons among the artifacts, its not surprising that a clever elder god might want to make such a key, either to reverse failed decision, sway the balance of power, or even go back to a time when the gods were at peace.

Plus I'm not sure time travel really is among the list of easily achievable mortal feats (maybe freezing is though from RFD) "We call it being a hero"
"That's interesting, we call it utter stupidity"

I am unconvinced about the key.

I cba typing out why right now.

What is now confusing me is there were others like the TokHaar that made the sea and desert etc so are they artefacts to and if so does that use up the remaining artefact spaces?

I guess they are extinct now but still strange in the way it is.

I got the Quin quote, it's whaler, mission 3, Evacuation. Ending scene.

"Discord said that Quin could control ALL sea monsters at once. She used an ancient horn to wake them, control them, and send them after her opponents."

Watching later scenes, since it's the one I found out about Quin from. Not sure if it's mentioned in other places either. So only mentioned once.

But hey, so was the Stone ;)

Os, You said majority is on Gielinor right? With some uncovered? And the gods will bring the rest here?

I know You can only give shady answers *** that's what I took from that QA.

Also, I don't like the way You talk cause being not a native English speaker, I fail to understand it most of the time. But I can't deny how fitting You're for the role You perform. I am glad RS lore is in Your hands.

BTW do something about the world gate.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe Guthix closed it though. Also, any info on who opened it?
There's nothing about Kethsi's gate being the same as Gielinor's, Gielinor's let Elves pass, which means it opened in the crystalline plane, not Keth*i.
The Kin is no surprise - they destroy worlds it's been on.
It doesn't seem the gods need the gate. If their sword can take them through worlds, why couldn't they go on a whim?

And Shield of Arrav - I believe the lore says it's not of this world. A similar sentence, assuming we consider main page articles lore, was a groundbreaking discovery for Movario, letting him finally assure himself what he was looking for somewhere is the Stone of Jas.

if the horn Quin used is the elder artifact, to be quite blunt- I want my hands on it.

a horn that could control or strengthen control over certain creatures certainly sounds elder artifact material to me, and not only do I imagine the gods want access to these artifacts, but I have a goal to collect them all.... "We call it being a hero"

i also remember seeing the shield of arrav on bandos or something in origins of gielinor video so if a god has it im pretty sure its an elder artefact

It's tied to a human bloodline.

Seren closed it I believe and no we don't know who opened it. We also are just assuming it is the world gate the Kethsians used because they use exactly the same name. It could just open anywhere for all we know. I don't want to remove it just yet.

The shield of arrav I am pretty convinced about ow though idk why it would be tied Toa human bloodline. Additionally it was found where a Zarosian settlement was once so that's interesting I think.

Hey, I've been thinking - it's probably been mentioned but I'll say it anyway... What about the Saradomin Sword? I mean Zilyana seemed very confident that it would kill Guthix when she thought that Guthix was Cres.

I mean, it would make sense that Saradomin found the sword and took it as his own and gave it to his most trusted and loyal Commander. If he was to ever need it back I know that she would give it to him.

I know the examine hints it was created by the Icyene but it doesn't state it specifically - just that it was an incredible blade that was obtained from an Icyene (Zilyana) so could this be another Elder Weapon?

I like your item: Airs Rune.
