One thing I didn't like during the quest :

during the final fight, I've accidentally skipped over half the dialog.
It's a natural time to heal up, but that causes you to miss the text.

perhaps it could also include the text in the chatbox (like a normal player said it), that has been used before during quests.

Hi all, every Friday morning we review the game update. I'd like to begin sharing (some) of what we discuss:

  • We made a change to add an Instance warning before the boss fight. In future we'll opt to include warning information in the update newspost, but risking wealth without teleports in an area you're unfamiliar with, against a foe you're unfamiliar with? The onus is on you!
  • We'll be changing the lobby to the Theatre of Blood to single-combat. It was multi-combat because initially that was where the boss fight was intended to take place. This is to accomodate Deadman W345.
  • We'll change how we present quest rewards in the release newspost and the pre-release poll. Spoiler tags (click to unhide) will be present on both. In the wording for quests we'll propose "Should we add x quest as described in the dev blog?". You'll be able to view the rewards should you wish to, and if you'd rather the surprise then you can avoid seeing them.
  • People were walking in weird places. This is related to how Morytania (or Canifis, I forgot what West said) was mapped initially. Legacy problem basically. Now fixed.
  • We'll look to add quest books to the PoH bookcase when we're able to.
  • We should have added the removal of the Darkness of Hallowvale key to the In Other News, and made it clear in the A Taste of Hope text. Oversight from all of us.

    I think that's it! Are you interested in seeing the results of these meetings? If so, I'll continue with them.

    Hi, an item i was using as a bank tab placeholder seems to have been removed from the game or simply from my bank... it could have been a quest item that suddenly is no longer available after completing the quest but i cannot remember what it was. is there any way i can get help on finding what it was?

    It's likely to be key from the Darkness of Hallowvale, if so, I'm informed that the Mossy key looks very, very similar. :)     Community Manager for Old School RuneScape

    Absolutely! It might seem like meaningless little tidbits of information, but it's nice to see how and what you guys think too!     "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -Martin Luther King Jr.

    Yes, it's always nice to see what you guys think and what you may have already fixed.

    I'm sad to see vyrewatch don't drop any remains for me to cremate, just the vampyre dust that I still have no idea what we can use for.

    Is it possible that these remains can be used for something in the future? (I actually really like using the shades of mor'ton minigame. Maybe the dust can be useful as an additional offering for additional experience, or it can be used as an herblore ingredient, or can be used to power up our silver equipment, etc..)

    The quest was really disappointing imo. It felt super rushed lore wise, and content wise just for the sake of the raid. It feels like a half-assed legacy of seergaze with elements from branches of darkmeyer to make it feel even more rushed and cheesy. Stuff like the columbarium from rs3 are just missing as well. Also to see ranis drakan flailing his arms around bitch slapping the character looked hilarious and I couldn't take it seriously. Also, did you see his fucking eyebrows in the dialogue? This quest felt like a parody and a joke compared to how the series continued on rs3. Vanescula's theme being played where it was was too much and sort of gives her character away too much. At least that's how I felt having played through the series on rs3.

    The vyre corpses and columbarium being added later would be a nice patch to remedy how rushed this update feels to me.

    Your point of view. I did like it and the final boss was challenging, at least for a experienced-level quest, not master.

    You're treading on dangerous ground here. Don't you know that OSRS community spend all their precious time bitching Rs3? (For not reason at all BTW, just for sport)

    Yes, I did play those quests on Rs3 and... I don't feel they're compelled to follow the same path in OSRS. I like the new area and the new town looks great and opens new possibilities.

    Slepe definitely looks amazing and love all the little lore bits crammed around the town. Shame there isn't any good reason to stay around there for long yet. The bloody bracer also boosts hp by 1! Gonna need a nerf pretty soon for that lmao drain your prayer faster for bludgeon specs?

    And yeah, it doesn't have to follow the same route just still felt cheesy to me. Plus, it was my favourite quest series on rs3.

    True about people bitching about stuff from rs3 being added though plenty of things have been. The columbarium was hardly op at all before the blisterwood and auto cremating was added. People basically only got the 500 kills for comp or was it trim? Just love the lore behind it and it was sort of fun to collect them over slayer tasks.
