I did the same thing except no cloak, I didn’t realize there was a cloak because I had the rest of the gear in my bank, from doing the quest who knows when.
Don’t disrespect the Ghostly Robes miniquest thank you very much!! Some of the best lore in RuneScape’s history straight from 2005. Yes the dialogue is long but was actually worth reading in my opinion, plus the robes are just massively iconic
@@Galimeer5 Boo-woo if the playerbase doesnt care about lore. Its apart of the game and if you don't want to do it, then dont. Not trying to come for your throat but I hate that argument. Thats like saying half the playerbase doesnt pvm so it shouldnt exist.
Tooooo be fair in rs3 the miniquest is much less important since the series has explored all that lore in detail through other quests. I mean, assuming you have a quest cape you may even have seen zaros return and the leave again, as well as worked directly with zammy a few times lol. I think its perfectly justifiable to space bar the whole quest apart from viggora at the end who gives you tldr
It's because it's content designed for a longevity of the game and to be reachable for all players. It still takes a lot of hours to get all the skill levels for these tasks from a fresh account. Designing content purely for end game building upon end game is bad strategy... It only rewards those who have been there since the beginning and punishes potential new players from not having already been at the end game
Plus the achievement was in the game since launch of Um. It was an exploration/city achievement that they moved over. There has been nearly a year to get it done before so I don't see a problem either. If it's going to be a little hard for like 2 days, so be it.
Protoxx: There's absolutely no need for the achievement to be so tedious when released in 2024. Jagex: We literally don't give the slightest of f***s. Deal with it.
I cut the moonstone before talking to the master crafter to learn how to make them. This caused me to not get the achievement when I made the passing bracelet.
I havent done it yet so I can be wrong. But if you think about thr desert Quests where you need dozends of hours of dominion Tower to complete them I dont think this one is realy standing out. After all we are still talking about Runescape. I would be underwelmed if all Tasks would be possible in 1 or 2 Hours^^
That really seemed like a massively unnecessary rant about the ghostly robes quest. I don’t remember it being particularly bad at all. I am more surprised you hadn’t done it previously considering the age of your account and the time you put in.
The moonstone locked requirement is also absolute trash for ironman accs, I have to hope I get one as a drop from rituals or wait for Thalmund to have one. Between the ghost impling step and the moonstone locked req, jagex showing us that once again they have no idea what they are doing.
Are you seriously whining about not finding an impling on release date with every player actively hunting for it? Just wait a few days and it should be easy..
Tbh the implings are pretty common if you know where they spawn, I found 5 for my clan in the span of 15 mins of hopping I'm way more frustrated with the bracelet crafting as an ironman. I already made it a couple of weeks ago and now I have to make another one while I don't have the amu yet. Feels really bad man.
The bracelet I kind of understand the frustration a bit because as an iron, you may have already made it and it isn't exactly a common item to get either. If you already made one it kind of sucks for a bit that you have to make another. It's extra annoying if you don't already have all 4 items and you already made it because then you may have to choose between getting the achievement and making another bracelet or making the other items you need and waiting to get the achievement till you get a 5th moonstone. Not exactly ideal.
@@whyarewestillherethough That was actually where mine were stored after I got them. I was wondering where I would get another set before I remembered that section existed.
The ghost impling in ghost robes achievement was already on release of necromancy and is already checked off if you had it before the release of these area tasks
For that miniquest, looks like you didn't get scenario 3 like I did. The last NPC is in an area with aggressive mobs, who will attack you DURING DIALOG, which mean you have to go through the endless dialog over and over until you get lucky with the mobs not interrupting.
Working on ritual grind in hopes of getting a moonstone because scalpers galore run the GE. Despite already having a bracelet of passing myself. I pity all irons- Update: Thalmund WILL NOT have moonstone until August 21st. What the actual fu-
i spent over an hour hunting for a ghostly impling this morning and have absolutely nothing to show for it. checked all bracelet teleport locations, went out on the boat, ran around the city, hopped 100+ worlds, never been so frustrated over an achievement diary task lmao. I have no problem with achievements being *difficult* but being forced to interact with a limited spawn that's ALSO competitive with other players and seemingly only has a single source in the game (not sure how many can spawn in um but it seems like one at a time?) is NOT diffiult, its rng based tedium and sucks all the fun out of completing an achievement, especially for an area diary.
competition is only going to exist since its new. Also you gotta think about how this plays out as a fresh account when the competition dies down. You can just play with that achievement in the back of your mind, when you see a ghostly imp, you grab your robes and get it ezpz
Interesting perspective. Most people in my ironman clan are upset about the moonstone achievement since most of us already made the moonstone jewellery. A few people already cut their spare moonstone before the achievement was released
These tasks really disappointed me. The soul rune crafting felt like a desert task, the bracelet task is miserable as an ironman, the ritual disturbance achievement sucks as an ironman because we almost always use multiply on everything, etc etc. It feels rushed and not thought out really
I did the Ghost Hunter achievement while doing rituals on the way to 120. I just wore the Ghost robes and waited for a Ghost Impling to appear. Didn't think much about it at the time, but given your frustration I'm very glad I did it when I did.
Hear I am doing laps around um in this trash boat for 2 hrs hoping worlds, all I see is Sammy fucking around in his boat guy is pissing me off at this point😂
I usually agree with you, but your take on the imp catching achievement is flawed. It is not the achievement's fault you did not check if the gloves were equipped. It also would not have taken you an hour if you had seen the first one. The update is terrible, but for two different reasons. First, the passing achievement that requires a moonstone is absolute garbage. The fact you cannot get a moonstone for 20m on the ge is crazy. Second, the elite achievement that is time-gated is absolutely illogical.
Surprisingly I had already completed the achievement when it got released because of a cape requirement, so thank god I didn't have to deal with that this time.
Tbh, the ghostly impling thing isn't really an issue. It's just because it was on day of release, once most people have theirs it'll be just like any other hard task.
definitely a skill issue, I logged in 12 hours after the update, grabbed my ghostly robes out of the poh, went to um and hopped on a boat, found 4 implings on my first lap around the city. Turns out that content with limited resources only sucks if you decide you have to do it asap
Its taken me 2 days to finish all of the City of Um Hard and Elite tasks [Minus the Thalmund and Sanctum of Rebirth elite tasks] and yet I still haven’t completed the Elite Desert Tasks because it’s locked behind completely finishing the Dominion Tower and its fully RNG reliant lore drops.
It only took me an hour or two to finish all except time locked ones. Then again, I did do most of the exploration achievements before hard and elite release so didn't have to fight with other players over finding an impling. Plus, hoarding materials was useful towards making a passing bracelet. :)
this is a no issue....you had a year to do this befoure it become a task....AND its only a issue on day 1 of release...uneeded crying. the moonstone is worse if you don't read properly.
Personally I hate any content locked on certain days or behind multiplayer minigames. It took me years to find a game of castle wars to complete those achievements.
I don't believe Jagex should change this achievement. If you aim to complete the diary as soon as possible after its release, it will understandably take some time, especially since many players are also searching for the Ghost imp. There's no obligation to complete this content immediately upon release. Remember, content isn't designed to be rushed and finished within 30 minutes of being released; in my opinion, that would result in poor content. Yes, you could rush it, but of course, it will be crowded and it will be miserable. Other diaries have tedious achievements as well, so I don't see any reason to change this one. They are Hard/Elite for a reason.
I had to catch it twice too. First time I was wearing the farmers ghostly outfit...because thats what showed up when i searched in the bank along with other ghostly robes. Then had to come back and specifically check poh to get it done after searching for over 4 hours, fed up and going to bed and waking up the next morning. Surely as time goes by it'll become accessible. Release dates are competitive...
The ghostly robes quest there gives lore on the wildy, and is a lot easier than when it was a pvp ground. Ghost implings are also going to be very scarce so soon after the content release. I found my at the docks, but typically find them before near the mushroom patch.
They could make ghost hunter a lot easier by adding ghost implings to puro-puro. Like they did with every other type of impling introduced after puro-puro
Weirdest one for me (elite achievement, not hard), is needing the Soul cape for Fetch Me Their Souls. Memory of Nomad is a trim requirement that I haven't gotten round to yet, now we need to have done it (in under 20 minutes) for an area task??
Honestly, the main reason I think this achievement is hated so much is because there is no progression in it. There are other achievements that take an insane amount of work to complete - The Desert Tasks have you complete the entire Dominion Tower, which is an insane amount of work. But you feel you are getting closer to completing it. You need 450 kills for a dreadnip.. but you are getting closer as you have 20 kills... 70 kills.... 269 kills. There is a sense of progression. - The Morytania achievements have you complete Temple Trekking to the max... and especially with how slow Smidi Rayak is... it takes a looooooooong time... but again, you are slowly progressing while doing it. With this one task, you can stand/search/run around for 3 hours and not get any closer to it than you were when you started. You can't go about your business... spot a Ghost Impling by chance and get it quickly. No! First run to the bank and get the full set again and then run back to find it gone. With the others, you can at least plan a bit... prepare a bit to complete it. This one... it's either pure luck or a 3-hour search-fest.
Huge skill issue, also these achievements aren't made as a 'do them now' kinda thing, it's meant to be part of the game and if players try to do the ghost impling one like 6 mnths from now, it's gonna be so easy
Lmfao, I just did this quest on OSRS with my friend and we laughed at how much dialogue was there. We even had Pkers show up at the Chaos Altar as we are talking to the ghost, they attack him and chase him out of the building and toward the ditch, meanwhile Im still spacebarring through the dialogue, they realize Im still there so as I see them turn around I world-hopped. And still had to talk to the damn ghost AGAIN to finish the dialogue and get the piece.
Grimoire is actually really op if you consider lower - mid level players using it to make money, I understand making it annoying to get. That way it’s not just a handout.
the ghostly imp was already an achievement, and it was kinda obvious that it was going to be convreted to a area task. so everyone could have done it beforehand
Definitely a skill issue, this is pathetic if you think it's the worst update of the year. Also, definitely a personal problem if you think tasks should all be completable in the first five minutes of release.
If you don't like the passing bracelet achievement, blame the #2 mod of the subreddit: it was eir idea. Don't blame Redditors; when that one idea out of a long list got called out, that mod tried to defend it & got deservedly downvoted. The JMods didn't bother to read the full discussion.
This mans said finding and catching a ghost imp with ghostly robes equipped takes longer than a grand master quest. Yet i can't stop running into them on w36 every time i'm on.
You would have had the achievement like an hour and a half earlier if you didnt mess it up constantly though to be fair. Also it will be a lot easier when its not day of release and people dont care so much about the ghostly implings. And also also the sanctum of rebirth achievement is on a grace period. We can get the grimoire 4 as soon as thalmund shows up.
Took a while to find but found it within 15mins ish around the mushroom farming plot. But I was annoyed that I had to take my Ghostly robes out of Keepsake...
This seems like an overreaction. Obviously this is more of a problem on day one, most players aren't going to be completing both tiers on day one...but having to world hop and search a bit for a hard tier step just isn't a big deal. And the title is potentially damaging to the overall community perception of the game, which I think is headed in an okay direction right now. Your words carry a lot of weight in this community, being inconvenienced for an optional achievement diary step is not bad content. It's a miracle we are getting content at all.
The ghost hunter achievement isn't that bad Protoxx. It's only because EVERYONE is trying to hunt one right now. Give it a few weeks and it'll be way easier. Anyone who's done the regular impling achievement for reg comp knows this struggle already. I still have nightmares of trying to find a Kingly impling for days. 😭😭😭😭😭😭
protoxx, the ghost hunter achievment got released with the release of city of um and necromancy, all they did was move it to become a task-achievment. it was in exploration before.... so its not a new release, (since u say the ghost hunter one if the reason for the video title, it means ur title is incorrect as it was a 2023 release :p )
If... this ghosthunter achievement was old. I may of got this somehow? Lemme check.... Yes. Yes I did. Hehehe. Ah. Started hard achievements but lacked some levels. Ah, well.
I actually thought the ghost hunter achievement was awesome. No need to cry about a difficult achievement. Should they have just given the Underworld Grimoires for nothing?
I'm usually onboard with your opinions but this is just stupid. Imagine working on content for months as a developer and then watching youtubers complain that it took them more than 30 minutes to complete.
The moonstone one I would agree, it was kinda backstab for irons... the tome is really overpowered and worth the grind :) Ps: Just finished to watch full OSRS swapletics series from Settled... I don't ever think i'll complain again about something on rs3 ^^
Wasn't the catch a ghostly impling in ghostly robes already in the achievements? I swear I already did that before. Might have been in the lore/comp achievements tho
Skill issue?

so cause of 2 human errors you got mad and made a video about it
Mate that ghost achievement took me 10 minutes, bash through the dialogue, hop on a boat using ted and paddle round the water and catch an imp
Huge skill issue, also these achievements aren't made as a 'do them now' kinda thing, it's meant to be part of the game and if players try to do the ghost impling one like 6 mnths from now, it's gonna be so easy
Lmfao, I just did this quest on OSRS with my friend and we laughed at how much dialogue was there. We even had Pkers show up at the Chaos Altar as we are talking to the ghost, they attack him and chase him out of the building and toward the ditch, meanwhile Im still spacebarring through the dialogue, they realize Im still there so as I see them turn around I world-hopped. And still had to talk to the damn ghost AGAIN to finish the dialogue and get the piece.
Grimoire is actually really op if you consider lower - mid level players using it to make money, I understand making it annoying to get. That way it’s not just a handout.
the ghostly imp was already an achievement, and it was kinda obvious that it was going to be convreted to a area task. so everyone could have done it beforehand
Its actually really good that the ghost impling is hard to catch. The tome/ grimoire is really good so it should be really hard to get
Definitely a skill issue, this is pathetic if you think it's the worst update of the year. Also, definitely a personal problem if you think tasks should all be completable in the first five minutes of release.
If you don't like the passing bracelet achievement, blame the #2 mod of the subreddit: it was eir idea. Don't blame Redditors; when that one idea out of a long list got called out, that mod tried to defend it & got deservedly downvoted. The JMods didn't bother to read the full discussion.
This mans said finding and catching a ghost imp with ghostly robes equipped takes longer than a grand master quest. Yet i can't stop running into them on w36 every time i'm on.
You would have had the achievement like an hour and a half earlier if you didnt mess it up constantly though to be fair.
Also it will be a lot easier when its not day of release and people dont care so much about the ghostly implings.
And also also the sanctum of rebirth achievement is on a grace period. We can get the grimoire 4 as soon as thalmund shows up.
You can hold space on Dialogue instead of pressing space.
Achievements locked behind RNG or time gates is bullshit.
Being lucky isn't an "achievement"
Took a while to find but found it within 15mins ish around the mushroom farming plot. But I was annoyed that I had to take my Ghostly robes out of Keepsake...
Skill issue, rather than worst update 😎
The fact that you now have to make a second bracelet of passing is ridiculous!
This seems like an overreaction. Obviously this is more of a problem on day one, most players aren't going to be completing both tiers on day one...but having to world hop and search a bit for a hard tier step just isn't a big deal.
And the title is potentially damaging to the overall community perception of the game, which I think is headed in an okay direction right now. Your words carry a lot of weight in this community, being inconvenienced for an optional achievement diary step is not bad content. It's a miracle we are getting content at all.
PSA, just hop worlds at the mushroom patch in Um. I found a post implimg in less than 5 minutes on both of my accounts
The ghost hunter achievement isn't that bad Protoxx. It's only because EVERYONE is trying to hunt one right now. Give it a few weeks and it'll be way easier. Anyone who's done the regular impling achievement for reg comp knows this struggle already. I still have nightmares of trying to find a Kingly impling for days. 😭😭😭😭😭😭
That "peace" sounded like the most pissed off one we've gotten so far 😂😂
Irons are quest locked behind extinction.......
protoxx, the ghost hunter achievment got released with the release of city of um and necromancy, all they did was move it to become a task-achievment. it was in exploration before.... so its not a new release, (since u say the ghost hunter one if the reason for the video title, it means ur title is incorrect as it was a 2023 release :p )
i kinda like the achievement because its a fun experience when you find an impling in the wild.
"Come here u lil sht" inspirational quote from protoxx
If... this ghosthunter achievement was old. I may of got this somehow? Lemme check.... Yes. Yes I did. Hehehe. Ah. Started hard achievements but lacked some levels. Ah, well.
First time completing achievements? they're all tedious. Elite Morytania requires Ritual of the Mahjarrat, these are nothing in comparison
I actually thought the ghost hunter achievement was awesome. No need to cry about a difficult achievement. Should they have just given the Underworld Grimoires for nothing?
This is entirely down to them tying the achievement to a rare non-individualized spawn. One would think they'd know better by now.
I'm usually onboard with your opinions but this is just stupid.
Imagine working on content for months as a developer and then watching youtubers complain that it took them more than 30 minutes to complete.
you've had nearly a year to complete this achievement, why hate the game if you just lacked doing it when it got released along necromancy
The moonstone one I would agree, it was kinda backstab for irons... the tome is really overpowered and worth the grind :)
Ps: Just finished to watch full OSRS swapletics series from Settled... I don't ever think i'll complain again about something on rs3 ^^
Wasn't the catch a ghostly impling in ghostly robes already in the achievements? I swear I already did that before. Might have been in the lore/comp achievements tho
They forced me to do Old Black Magic quest T_T
