    Default RS Update: Nov 6 2012

    Here we go guys:
    Tears of Guthix: Go with the Flow


    If you've never tried Tears of Guthix before, it's a cool D&D located under Lumbridge which - after completing the short Tears of Guthix quest - can be played up to once a week for a handy XP boost to your lowest-levelled skill. It's steeped in RuneScape lore too, as you'll tell stories of your adventures to Juna - a serpentine servant of Guthix - in exchange for a short time catching the XP-giving tears.

    The first thing veterans among you will notice is the full graphical rework. Juna, now super-sized and draped across the entrance to the tears alcove, makes for an imposing sight as she unravels the skeins of your fate. The tears themselves now make for a stunning cascade down the beautifully re-rendered walls, and the light creatures shimmer eerily as you make your way through the cave.


    We've multiplied XP gain in the cave by three times, bringing it in line with equivalent areas of gameplay. The biggest boost comes to high-level players, though. Those of you with 80 Crafting and Mining can make an ornate and extra-large bowl for up to five times the XP gain you'd have got before the update.

    We've made some technical tweaks so that switching between the streams of tears is quicker and feels more responsive. We've also updated the Games Necklace so it can be used to teleport directly to Juna's cave. The new interface we've built for it includes keyboard shortcuts so, it's quicker and easier to use than ever.

    Whether it's your first time collecting the tears, it's a cozy part of your weekly routine, or you've been waiting for a reason get back into the flow, it's the best time ever to drink deeply from the Tears of Guthix.

    How to start Tears of Guthix:

    First, you must complete the Tears of Guthix quest, which has the following requirements:
    44 Quest Points
    20 Crafting
    49 Firemaking
    20 Mining
    You may then complete the D&D once per week, but you also need to have obtained at least one of the following since you last collected the tears:
    1 Quest Point
    100,000 XP. This can be shared across any number of skills.
    Other requirements:

    In order to craft the improved bowl, you must have at least the following. You will then be able to talk to Juna to begin the process of making the bowl:

    80 Crafting
    80 Mining

    I love how it was supposed to make more money for better content. What content?! There hasn't been any decent new content in months.

    Every time there's an update, they break.
    In other news: I'm going to use my xp on slayer cause it's the least bottable.

    I'm definitely going to check this out. I used to do this before, but only for a few weeks before I got tired of it. It only gave like 7-8k xp and it was annoying to get to, especially when you forgot a light source =/. Since there's a tele option to go there now, me and many other people will start doing it weekly again . The xp increase is pretty awesome too.

    Just click on the blue water and avoid the green, and get as many tear drops as possible, simple as that . Free 50k xp or so for like <5 minutes of your time.
