Hi.

Mod Mark here. I have noticed a great deal of chat in my CC and around the game recently regarding quest difficulties - particularly Grandmaster level quests (GMQs). I felt it best to write a blog about the subject.

To read this blog, click here.

If you'd like to comment on it, please feel free to post here.

EDIT - I have answered some of your questions on page 15 :)

EDIT: Nevermind, I got it!

Seems like an okay blog, I thought this was talking about the next Grandmaster Quest! :P

Thanks for clearing it up though, I hope the next GM Quest has some decent requirements and a tough puzzle. ^_^

Read this Mod Mark! :)

"Just a small side note. I know quests are intended for everyone, but still not everyone considers themselves a quester. For the people who do, quests are more important than for those who don't. What I'm trying to say that 'epic' boss fights may sound appealing and attract more people to doing quests, but don't forget the group 'true' questers, which favorite activity is doing quests, who can't wait for a new quest to come out, who speculate about the history of Gielinor and what there is yet to come, and who know the story of Runescape by heart.

You can look at it from two ways;
- A quest without a story isn't a quest, a quest without an 'epic' boss fight still is a quest.
- A quest needs a story, but an 'epic' boss fight does not need a quest.

Page 1 yay :D

Sounds like something to look forwards to! Multiple 90+ stats for a quest would really be a nice quest to try out, and achieve the stats meanwhile :)

Woah.. a quest with only 90+ skill requirements will be cool, but i will imagine it causing a huge uproar of unhappiness following it's release though.
