Clan Citadels

Another week, another clan update from Jagex.

This time, it's in what appears to be large clan-owned areas, "Clan Citadels", presumably similar to POHs.

The main aim of this seems to be to get money out of the game to counter the inflation issue that plagues Runescape.

Of course, as usual, this will likely be very rarely used, just like the Clan Camp. Whatever features are offered, it'll be interesting to see how Jagex tries to motivate players to spend their time here, instead of training their skills / earning money.
Working together, you’ll gather the resources and materials needed to build and maintain your realm, with tiered progression. Enjoy the fruits of your labour as you proudly watch your Citadel grow to become ever grander.
Perhaps it will function like a minigame, requiring clan members to perform activities in order to improve certain sections. If this is the case, I suspect the huge range of customisation options will be similar to Player Owned Houses, in that there are individual sections (rooms), that can be placed in various locations on the plot of land, and each has different components (hotspots) that can be upgraded.

Perhaps instead it will function like the Kingdom Management miniquest, but without the profit, whereby the clan has to effectively allocate their scarce resources in order to maximise Citadel improvement.

The concept art looks quite impressive, and seem to show some sort of entry portal on the island separate from the mainland.

This feature will be released on the 26th July 2011.

Misc Text

 No.. no I would not Mr Lamp. From Dream Mentor.

Being helpful on a thread about the 5v5 tournament, Frog Mod agreed with me. :)

Also, my adventurer's log glitched, and recorded 92 hunt, but not my 93 hunt nearly 24hrs later. It also recorded my 94 hunt fine. Odd thing. Sent in a bug report, hope it gets fixed. :)

Unused

Full Kudos

Finally got full Kudos at Varrock Museum, via finishing my first statue, and receiving a replica part for my house. Might start doing it weekly, not sure yet.

Fremennik Sagas

These were 3 very fun dungeoneering related miniquests, and I actually really enjoyed them.

In the first, you control 3 characters, and switch between them, which is alright, but it's a bit buggy sometimes, still a nice introduction to dungeoneering.

In the second, you first play as the leader of a team of 4, killing enemies, then you play a grieving enemy... in a very, very twisted storyline, with your dead brother's ghost telling you to kill the characters you once played... you have to play it to experience the disturbing effect.

In the 3rd, you play a very overpowered enemy, for some good enemy killing fun. :) Also got a nice option at the end, when choosing what to use my xp on:

Rebuilding

Alright, so I'm thinking of destroying my house as it is atm (random rooms from training / previous expansions), and rebuilding it completely. I won't do this anytime soon, just in the future.

Centrepiece - Exit Portal - 1.4k
Big Plant - Roses - 15k
Big Plant 2 - Bluebells - 15k
Hedging - Small Box Hedge - 15k?
Fencing - Garden Fence - 10k

Menagerie:
Obelisk - Mini Obelisk - 350k + 10 of each charm.
Pet Feeder - Mahogany Pet Feeder - ~150k
Pet House - Desecrated Pet House - ~1m
Pets (15) :
- Cat
- Baby Dragon
- Monkey
- Chameleon
- Vulture
- Raccoon
- Zamorak hawk
- Squirrel
- Raven
- Tooth Creature
- Penguin
- Rune Guardian
- Broav

NEVER do this quest

Never even ATTEMPT this quest. It's rageful.

Quest Reward (70k fish xp)

Been doing a few quests recently, including the new fishing quest "Deadliest Catch". The reward is a crazy amount of fish xp, honestly surprised me.

Oh, and in addition get 26k hunter xp, some new deposit boxes around the world, and wieldable large + small fishing nets.

Dungeoneering

Taking a little break to get 80 dungeoneering. Also, got a couple of primal drops, but nothing useful yet. Had boots & kiteshield, but both have worse stats than my current armour bind, prom plate.
