RuneScape
The first of April's updates seems to attract abbreviations: F2P, PvP, OMG - all of these could be used to describe Fist of Guthix, our next combat minigame. We could say that this will be a safe, single-way, Wilderness-based game available to both free players and members, but that would ignore some important details. Attack strategies, defensive tactics, well-timed escapes: Fist of Guthix will employ all of these to create a memorable combat minigame.

There is a massive range of rewards to win for playing Fist of Guthix, so we'll give you a wee teaser. The rune berserker shield, like most of Fist of Guthix's rewards, degrades with use, but it also offers you some hefty defence bonuses and a Strength boost; the battle robe set will sometimes pay for mind, chaos, death or blood runes that you use when casting a combat spell; and the Runecrafting gloves will double the experience you gain from crafting runes of the glove's type!

Talking of rewards, where could you possibly find a top hat, animal mask, adamant cane and black crossbow? It could only be the Treasure Trails, and this month will bring our next installment. Among the new weapons, clothes and hats will be some brain-twisting new clues to untangle, ranging across the medium and hard difficulties.

It is at this point in the month that the skies will darken, a fog will descend and a bloodcurdling scream will echo out. What could bring on this strange and eerie change? Ah, it must be the fourth in our Myreque quest series: Legacy of Seergaze! With no help forthcoming from Misthalin and vampyres continuing to collect their scarlet tithes, the Myreque have been calling on mercenaries to aid their cause. Meanwhile, deep in Paterdomus, Drezel has found something strange that could shed light on Morytania's gloomy past...

Not so gloomy are the graphical improvements to the Morytania entrance area and the icefiends of RuneScape. Expect Paterdomus temple and its grounds to become more grand and foreboding, and the icefiends a sight more icy and fiendish.

A nod must be given to the website updates. The Grand Exchange Database will be released this month, having had its image issues resolved, displaying graphs and statistics of Grand Exchange market prices. There's also a Summoning guaranteed content poll, the latest Players' Gallery and the Postbag from the Hedge.

OMGOMGOMGOMG Rune Berzerker Sheild!
New Treasure Trail and Rewards biggrin
Aprils gunna be a sweeeeet month.

There's some guy on the forums with all this "proof" that the minigame is an April's Fools joke. Part of his proof was translating the German version of the BTS and saying it isn't the same... When it is, basically...

I don't think he bothered reading the State Of Play.

Oh, another bit of his arguement and a few others is that Guthix is the God of Balance, and this minigame would contradict it somehow. RIIIIIIIIIIGHT............

Those RCing gloves would help me out a lot. rofl

F2p Updates ftw?

Don't you love those idiotic members who think that f2pers are n00bs simply because they don't shell out a few bucks? All that says to me is that they bought themselves out of n00bdom... Going by their logic. rolleyes

But yea, they whine that f2p shouldn't be getting updates that they pay for. Things like DA and the new minigames. They make a big deal about it, but you know, there is a reason why f2p are getting these... They are meant to be replacements for the Wildy. But not only that, they are meant to be a better form of PKing, which I think they're working well. Best point of it is that you aren't stuck roaming around to actually find someone.
