Quest reward XP Rates
« on: February 16, 2013, 08:33:48 am »
Hello Community of Runerebels.

I didn't think I'll quit from a certain RSPS to come to an less crowded one. But they dont have any good updates lately and they lack information. And this one here has something super-duper important for me - QUESTS!

Amazing job guys! And it's super duper mega uber how your update order is (F2P first). Unlike the one I come from (wont say name, would be uhm, advertising, but you all know which one I'm talking about).

There is only 1 problem I find with quests. I intend to be an Old-School Pure, with prayer 31 (maybe 34). But I want to do as many quests possible for following reasons:
* I love questing.
* For the benefits they give = access to other places (canifis for example); ability to do other quests; the quest where I can get that level 20 prayer armor and change my "home" (place where I spawn when I die) to Falador and SO ON.

In Runescape we (people who want to keep a certain skill, prayer for example) low, have LIMITED amount of quests we can do, and we have to choose. If the quest XP rates are 2x higher than in Runescape, we have even less choises to make. And we CANNOT experience the game as we did in Runescape = wouldn't be a "remake" anymore.

Prayer is just an example. Defence would have the same problem. We used to make Dragon Slayer and MM and got defence 40, then a few more quests (and a bit training) for 45 defence - Berzerker Pure. But here we wouldn't be able to do that.


I hope you think about the situation and find a solution for that. Maybe a personal manual trigger wether we want 1x or 2x XP from a certain quest?


I hope it's enough for you to consider changing something, because quests with 2x XP rate (not all, certain ones) would mess up the game for me :(.

I didn't even realise quests were 2x xp? Thought training skills just was. and you can do "::lock <insert skill>" on this server. (same goes for ::unlock <insert skill>)

I just checked (Sheep shearer) and instead of 150xp I got 300xp  :-X.

Thank you for informing about the "::lock" commands. But are you sure they work with quests?

I am not sure if they work with quests, but if this is the case i do think they need to disable the x2 on xp rewards.

I agree, while skills should be 2x, quests should remain 1x.

This has been addressed by several pures already, and we have decided to leave the XP rate for quests at 1x
