Astonishing![/quote] Fairly sure that this was the continuation of an old project that had been in QA ever since march 2018 - https://runescape.wiki/w/Upcoming_updates?oldid=32218815#Combat_fixes Anyway - I am grateful for that since shattered worlds was so incredibly dull. I could actually imagine getting the remaining (and new) rewards now. [darkorchid]Ah i did not know that, thanks for pointing that out. Stay safe.[/darkorchid]

You there! Some kind of bug is out there with Sliske's endgame quest. It makes Armadyl fail to appear on top of his tower after completing the quest. We need to deliver a fancy coat to that bird for the skill with too many vowels.

You can google or reddit this problem, apparently lots of people know about it. Hilariously, you seem to expect me to finish the quest again by engaging in a 45 minute battle.

I got no time for that, and you don't have any suitable rewards for me to do it! So one of you needs to click your little button and put the big bird back on his nest.

Edit: I am guessing this bug is also the reason Saradomin is missing from his throne in Falador. With this new knowledge I am planning a 1 man riot outside the gates of his castle. Got my cannon, some fireworks and Mackers the turkey prepared to raise hell.

I don't know why, but I was (luckily) able to select an option to skip that final battle against Sliske.

Lol, good luck! XD
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

i gave the new shattered worlds a try and i'm a little confused at what actually changed. i went to challenge portal expecting more than 3 challenges a week, only to find challenges i don't like. they had mystery mutators, and when i entered i found out all the mutators were basically bad. it was a lot harder than it used to be, and so i couldn't finish a single challenge, whereas before i would at least visit weekly and do a few easy challenges to continue gaining points.

i'm also not sure if i like the idea of having bosses now. the whole point of shattered worlds was to rush through them quickly to gain points, but now i have to fight a boss just sounds like it is slowing it down.

and finally, releasing a 25% bonus points during the first few weeks of archaeology being released is seriously dumb. i have to stop training arch to take advantage of this bonus.



maybe as time goes on i'll feel different, but it sounds more like SW got a nerf by introducing bosses and making the challenges harder. i still tried to give this piece of content some attention every couple weeks but i am seriously wondering if i will ever play it now?

I actually had been playing Shattered Worlds a fair bit before the update as I unlocked the Bladed Dive ability to help with moving between excavation spots. (I also got the Abyssal hound at world W31 and I was ever so tempted to just stop there lol.

Had a little go now and it seems to play a lot more fluid. AOE abilities work better as monsters will group together from larger distances. I like that there's different objectives now and the timer is based on when you complete the objective so you can prep for the next world. Anima fully picking up and the skip feature are also nice little tweaks.

I'm using level 70-80 gear with maxed stats. I completed the bronze and silver challenges fine, albeit being careful because of the random mutators I had got but the gold challenge is too hard in my opinion. Just killing the ones near the portal and I could tell from the damage they were dealing that I was going to waste my food and not get very far. I'm not the best at combat but worlds 90+ you need top level gear. It's a once a week bonus so unless there's a Platinum challenge added for world 100+ then I think it definitely needs to be made a bit easier...

Rewards:
Why would I buy teleport scrolls when my wicked hood teleports me to the water alter a few seconds away?
No interest in titles, maybe that's just a personal opinion.
Masks - I have almost all of these from Treasure Hunter. I can see the benefit of Spirits of Battle for those who like Slayer a lot. Social media:
