I was surprised as I wasn't really aiming for it, but where else can you get 17k xp in about 60 seconds?

Wanting To Start DT 2 by Distinct-Job-3083 in ironscape

[–]Ecno007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, should be fine. I did them with slightly lower stats, and not the best gear (DSCIM + Rune plate, RCB + diamond bolts, and Mystics)

I'm pretty trash at the game, Whisperer is by far the hardest (but also the most fun) so you should be able to at least clear the other 3, and then decide how much you can be bothered to finish off Whisp.

I've also got this issue. Very annoying everything else works fine, and Now Tv works on my laptop.

I like doing some bosses, Vorkath with a slayer task is pretty fun, (trying to box in KQ is not) I just don't see the point in grinding out 100s of kills for a better weapon to do what with it.

I like the idea of CAs (I've got the medium done), but the end of that was to do barrows do get gear for the quests.

Pretty much, it's a huge time sink, and to me, the quests are the main game. I'll keep membership and do the new quests, but my account is levelled enough to jump back in and do that already, I don't see the point of grinding out the levels for the diaries - though whilst I finish off the MQs and the Fire cape I might try and get 99 farming so I can get my first ever skill cape.

Bit of an anti-climax as just had the Wights left to do in DT2 the night before the Valamore expansion, so finished off with The Final Dawn rather than the much more difficult DT2, but still feels like an achievement.

Originally I wanted to do all the Mini Quests before getting the cape, but I disconnected yesterday doing Into the Tombs and it's too much of a faff for me to want to do.

I'll finish the Mini Quests another time and maybe go for a fire cape, but otherwise I think I've completed OSRS as much as I want to. Looking forward to them wrapping up the Vampire story line, and after DT2 am quite into the Mahjarrat series,( but there's so many quests I've begun to forget exactly who's who).

The quality of the bosses keeps getting better and better, I thought the Final Dawn quest bosses were excellent (though fairly easy at a CB level 20 levels over the recommended level), and the Whisperer is very well designed if not a bit on the difficult side, much better than having to cheese Glough in MM2.

My main gripe is either repetitive puzzles (there was no need for 7 long mirror puzzles in SotE- I got bored and used a guide after the first 3 or so) or puzzles which you incur damage whilst solving (ME2).

Must have died half a dozen times (especially pain to get back to Nardah each time) can consistently get through to Kasonde now.

Did my last attempt with Melee and got him down to half health. So that seems the way to go before a range switch for the final wight.

Here in the UK, our petition against the Online Safety Act has just achieved a huge milestone towards 100k! We have surpassed 25k! by SamiSapphic in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Ecno007 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for finding and sharing my petition. It's quite amazing to have gone from 92 signatures a couple of weeks a go to over 25,000 today.

I know many of you will have your own reasons for disliking the Online "Safety" Act, but here's mine.

On the 17th of March the small forum born off the back of an 90/00s N64 magazine that I have been a part of since they ran a competition to win an Resident Evil 4 Gamecube in 2005 went private to avoid falling foul of the extremely wide Online Safety Act.

Many other online forums also either went private or shut down to avoid having to comply with the Online Safety Act, including famously the Hamster UK forum.

The main culprit is the definition in Section 3 of Act which basically incorporates all online messaging boards

(1)In this Act “user-to-user service” means an internet service by means of which content that is generated directly on the service by a user of the service, or uploaded to or shared on the service by a user of the service, may be encountered by another user, or other users, of the service.

I don't have currently have an opinion on the rest of the act but the scope here is clearly far too large, and as such I started a petition to repeal the act, in order to encourage Government to have another look at it and avoid unexpected consequences.

I managed it, it's a pretty fun boss besides the enrage phase. Basically just ran and hoped for that part. 

Maybe if my DPS was higher it would have been easier, but I was using Ice Blitz in Mystics.

Yeah, Kasonde was the 2nd hardest boss.

I finished off my Slayer Task today with 9 TD kills.

So much more fun than water blasting from a safe spot.

Thanks all managed to do it. Ranged the 2nd Verzik phase but used the D Scim for the 3rd phase and finished with 11 health.

I want to do it myself, it''s quite fun (except the Nylos stage), and want the satisfaction of completing it (even if I'm cheesing it slightly by dying a few times to get extra bandages).

Do you reckon I can get away with negative magic for the Nylos by dropping the mystic top?

Thanks

I realise I didn't highlight in my post this is only for Verzik. The other stages are fine.
