… wait, what? Nothing to do with While Guthix Sleeps? And … the quest is MEDIUM length? WHAAAT? What kind of [...]

QUEST START AND REQUIREMENTS
They said it, not me.
THE QUEST GUIDE!
All right. This quest is, in a nutshell, one long test of endurance. Not only are you going to be killing things, but you’re going to be killing strong things. And not just strong things. LOTS of strong things.

One of the major quest series of Runescape is this Mysteries of the Mahjarrat series, which subliminally started with the Fight Arena where General Khazard was denied a couple of slaves … and his little dog too, and Lucien sought the fabled Staff of Armadyl.

At first, in [...]

For a while now, we’ve been learning the upcoming of Jagex’ latest projects through means other then the monthly update (which, I admit, was a lot more fun to look forward to). Developers blogs, twitter accounts, even subliminal messages in the Postbag and Players Gallery (which, for some odd reason, seems to happen half-yearly now). [...]
Interesting how one day’s news can change something dramatically. At first, the only pet item in anybody’s house was an unused pet basket in the corner of the kitchen. Now, with some good planning and good design work, there’s now an entire room dedicated to them!
Of course, being such an avid constructor, I had to [...]
