A Runescape Muser

I’m finally reviving RS Muser after ages (again).  I dropped it a little bit at first because I didn’t play Runescape that much, but I’ve decided that it doesn’t matter if I don’t play Runescape every day; it’s still nice to blog about it.  There’s one change though: I’ve changed my name to Aer Wynn instead of Bluebrisingr.  I’m still not too sure how I like this change, but I’ll see at the end of the month.  I’m leaning towards changing it back though, because the name feels so exotic and different, so all of the stuff on this blog is staying Bluebrisingr for now.

Anyways, Rune Beast0 and I decided to do Family Crest together, after we had both spent a day tanking our magic to 55 so that we could magic potion our way through it.  I must say, it’s quite a different feeling when you’re doing quests together with someone else, and it does tend to be a lot more fun.  However, it’s obvious that Jagex hasn’t anticipated people doing quests co-op.  We got majorly hindered at the part with the levers after both of us tried to do it simultaneously and failed.  After quite a few runs, we ended up just waiting for one to complete the levers and get the ore and then the other would go.   It was really nice having another person there though to help out with things.  For example, when Beast was mining the “perfect” gold ores, I helped him out by attacking the hellhounds so that he wouldn’t get attacked while he was mining.  He did the same for me by keeping the red spiders busy as I killed Chronozon at the end.  It was also rather humorous, as we had a few “close catastrophe evasions,” once when Beast thought he had messed up the ruby necklace/ring making part, another time when he almost made two ruby necklaces, and a few more that I can’t really remember.

It would be really nice to see some quests in Runescape aimed towards completion with more than one player, and I don’t mean quests like Shield of Arrav where you had to find another person in the other gang to get the other piece of the shield.  I’d like to be able to have to actually interact with the other person fully, such as maybe an obstacle course that must be completed by two or more people (like in those cliche video games based off movies where, say, one person pushes a button which sets an elevator moving and the other person has to ride up the elevator to push another button that will allow the first person to move on …I’m bad at explaining things, sorry).  This would make for a much more enjoyable quest, in my opinion.

Beast and I plan on doing more quests together though, despite the fact that they’re aimed towards one person, which should be rather interesting.  I also finally now have gloves that match my desert boots, since mime gloves are a different shade of white (yes, that’s the reason I wanted to do Family Crest XD).

In other things, I’m less than 400k away from 91 fishing.  Still so far ):
