**SPOILERS** Future RS Updates!

=O where do you people find these pictures lol.Also how do people get sailing out of that cape,i got music from first glance lol

 

lol. u need to run my model grabber, which then gets u all the runescape models... then u need to use RSMV to look at them

 

Rune Cbow is allready very good and some say even the best range weapon. I think it is too.

Dragon cbow would be too overpowered.

The cape is probably a music cape, if it is, it would be a good thing. You would see more people at more places.

 

The dragon plate may not be missing arms, it may be finished and not even have arms.

EDIT: Where can i d/l your grabber, and where can I download the viewer?

 

I will post links when I get home from school.

 

I like the idea of a music cape...

 

wow how did you find those and i think the 3rd 1 is a dragon pick

 

Music cape looks pretty awsome, would love to get my hands on one of those.

 

That's what I think

 

wow thoose look pretty awesome actually!

 

That cape looks awesome, like a white cape with black trim...sick!

 

Omfg how you get to this? :O

 

Man that is so sweet. I think the music cape will be slightly pants. Like the quest cape. Too many noobs will attempt to get it, therefore making it pointless and common.

 

GUYS!

Check out this thing I found on the web!

Shadowdancer has suggested a new skill for Runescape. He wrote the following in the official forum. Quick find code: 24-25-401-44450587

This thread is the ultimate suggestion for adding a "Music" skill to RuneScape. I know several players have been clamouring for this for a long time now, and I have a fairly good idea of how it could be implemented.

First, some real-life history about the "Minstrel":
----------------------------------------------------------------------
"A minstrel was a medieval European bard who performed songs whose lyrics told stories about distant places or about (real or imaginary) historical events. Though minstrels created their own tales, often they would memorize and embellish the works of others. Frequently they were retained by royalty and high society. As the courts became more sophisticated, minstrels were eventually replaced at court by the troubadours, and many became wandering minstrels, performing for common townsfolk. In this guise, minstrelsy was still well liked until the middle of the Renaissance, despite a decline beginning in the late 15th century. Minstrelsy fed into later traditions of itinerant entertainers, which continued to be moderately strong into the early 20th century, and which has some continuity down to today's buskers or street musicians."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Given that brief introduction as to what a minstrel was, I hereby propose that the skill be called: - "Minstrelry"
- "Minstrel"
- "Troubador"
- "Bardery"

Now, how will this relate to RuneScape?
Well, there is a single-player computer RPG series from the 1980s called "The Bard's Tale". I remember it well because one of the character classes you could be was a Bard, which was otherwise known as a minstrel/troubader - he/she could play a musical instrument and create a wide variety of different effects for not only him/herself but everyone he/she travelled with.

We already have a Lyre in RuneScape; however its function seems to be limited to being a teleportation device. But more on potential instruments later.

Some of the effects from this RPG series included:

"Song #1 - This tune increases the damage your party will do in combat, by driving them into a berserker rage."

"Song #2 - This song will produce light when exploring, and during combat it will increase the party's chance of hitting a foe with a weapon."

"Song #3 - This song will soothe your savage foes, making them do less damage in combat."

"Song #4 - This is an ancient Elven melody, which will heal the Bard'swounds during traveling, and heal the party's wounds during combat."

"Song #5 - This melody makes the members of your party more dexterous and agile, and thus more difficult to hit."

"Song #6 - This song sets up a partial 'anti-magic' field, which gives party members some increased protection against spell casting."

Some of those effects could easily be adapted to apply to RuneScape, such as playing a tune that, say, doubles hitpoint regeneration rate to all players with Accept Aid turned on and are in a 3 x 3 area of the minstrel/bard/troubador.

Now, as a skill, I feel that it might be set up this way:

Level 1: Can only play 1 song before losing voice/ability; can only play wooden wind instruments.

Level 5: Can play 2 songs before losing voice/ability;

Level 11: Can play 3 songs before losing voice/ability; can play wooden wind and stringed instruments.

Level 20: Can play 4 songs before losing voice/ability; can play wood wind, stringed, and percussion instruments.

Level 26: Can play 5 before losing voice/ability; can play pianos and church organs (playing a church organ regenerates prayer points for all in 5 * 5 area of player perhaps?).

Level 33: Can play metal instruments such as wind chimes? And so on. Now, losing voice/ability is a natural consequence and could be regained by visiting, say, an NPC that is skilled in musical arts.

INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------

There are several instruments that could be smithed/fletched/assembled or whatnot. Here's a smallish list:

- flute, wooden

- flute, metal

- Lyre (we already have this)

- Harp

- Fender Strat*caster. Ha, just kidding.

- Drums, simple wooden (built from carving wooden drums and having to skin snakes or something and tan the hides for the covering?)

- Bagpipes?

- Conch

- Horn, crafted from bronze perhaps

- Cello?

Now, all musical instruments ought to be two-handed. It's kind of hard to flick an Abyssal Whip at someone/something while trying to perform a war song...

Now, it bears mentioning that Jagex might want to control the songs we're
actually able to play in-game and not allow us to compose our own ditties. This is probably more feasable because if everyone tried to write their own music it would more than likely sound like an assault on the ears and some of us who can't carry a tune (much less compose one) might PK all of Varrock by accident.

So here it is. I am looking for suggestions for the following:

- Musical Instruments (an elaboration on specific types; how to build them, what materials needed, are they magical/enchanted, are they quest related, etc)

- Song Effects - Specific Level Powerups

Let's get brainstorming, shall we?

And please, no whistling.

 

That d plate looks so tight, but they really coulda added a little more to the pick

 

woow this is an awsome idea, glad jagex is making this

 

That's pretty sweet nice find, I'd say the last pic is a Dragon Pickaxe for sure

 

heliminator... thats awesome

 

Wow, thats pretty cool.

 

Reckon the first skill cape is music making O_O
