Barbarian assault changes

Post by Lady in Ice » Wed Jan 20, 2010 1:42 pm

Update from Jan 19th :

* New Penance horn that lets you gain double XP in Agility, Firemaking and Mining (in a similar fashion to the tools from Stealing Creation).
* New colours of abyssal whips.
* New Penance trident weapon.
* Penance armour stat improvement and Prayer restoring set bonus.
* Penance gloves now reduce more weight.
* Gamble points rebalanced (they still include a rare chance for dragon armour).
* Ability to show off your achievements in the roles of attacker, defender, collector and healer.
* High score tables for the attacker, defender, collector and healer roles.
* Waiting rooms increased in size.
* Additional wave room ticket system for saving progress through battles.
* Blue penance eggs now reduce the target Penance's stats and deal damage.
Anyone has the horn? Does it work together with clay pick for example ( 4* exp thus? )?

A few of us played a complete wave yesterday, and Hid had previously been playing another completed wave on the BA world, so he already had the horn and it had been charged 25% after he played on BA world. However, after we had played with clan, his horn did not charge up to the expected 50%...?

He has since made an enquiry as this seems like a glitch. So for now we are none the wiser, but will post as soon as we know :)

This horn is the true delicacy of this update. It looks like my savior when it comes to Mining, and perhaps Agility at the higher levels. Hands down this is the greatest update all year for me at least. :D

At least Barbarian Assault has more of a purpose now. The only reason for playing it before was Pennace Gloves and Torso(IMO).

I really like the changes, but I didnt know you had to set the statue to charge the horn, so I didnt get any charge to check on the mining thing.
