5s one of the elves is the Grand Master
7s finale to the elven storyline it's not
9s the first Grandmaster chrismedonne but
11s it's the first time we've ever finished
12s a storyline officer this is something
13s really special but perhaps even more
16s special than the quest itself is that
18s this quest is finally gonna unlock
19s access in a crystal city of prettiness
21s it's been sat on the world map since
23s 2004 patiently waiting to be open and
26s it's finally going to happen this moment
30s [Music]
34s Belvin storyline was first added to
36s rotate universe all the way back in 2002
39s request plate city a couple of years
41s after the vote in 2004 was when the
44s first hints of prettiness were added
45s when it appeared on the world map
47s between men and now no one's been able
49s to access it and it's finally gonna
51s change
51s Mourad first pitch this update to the
54s team in summer 2018 and instantly we're
57s all sold on it we loved the idea and so
60s we started development on it but before
62s that that being said plenty of design
64s going into it we sort of started
65s prototyping things and just took it from
67s there really it's something that the
69s community has talked about a lot what we
70s actually get our in version of proof
72s dinners and now it's finally coming to
74s old school was a great thing for us I'm
77s not going to spoil too much about the
78s quest I wanna let people experience it
79s for themselves but unsurprisingly you
82s know Grand Master fan ITL story line
83s this is gonna finally solve all the
85s issues that have been coming up in the
86s previous class that plague in our doink
88s we're finally gonna see an end to that
90s whatever lord I offer has been up to in
92s that temple deep beneath the mountains
93s it should be really excited for you
95s because it's the first time we've done
96s anything like this in old school and it
98s allows us to do something really
99s different with the story time I think
100s people are really going to love one
104s players first ten to the fifty the first
105s thing that grabbed their eye will be the
107s tower of voices is this huge crystal
109s structure that's so beautiful and the
111s whole fifty is really it's a
113s breathtaking sight unlike anything
114s you'll have seen for an old school the
116s obviously has eight distinct areas one
119s for each of the elf clans each clan has
121s a clan tell and each one of those clan
123s towers have it has an upper level which
124s then branches into the Terra forces so
127s you'll be able to navigate around the
129s city and actually observe the city from
130s an upper level and kind of really
132s experience the environment on it on a
134s broad scale we looked at runescape and
137s actually spoke to the concept art its
138s mod neil who created the original
141s concept work for that and we decided to
143s draw a lot from that just so it kind of
145s felt canon and in keeping with the rest
147s of the runescape universe each of the
149s clans in prifddinas
150s has a speciality and those specialities
154s are reflected the greatest and the clan
156s leaders so that was super exciting to
159s design the clan leaders because I could
160s really reflect what they were about what
162s their house was about
163s and their speciality within the design
166s and make them all super unique there's a
169s lots of cool new things people to find
170s in proofing us there's a new dungeon
172s with some Slayer creatures there's a
174s mine as a new sawmill a new house portal
177s lots of new shops lots of new characters
179s to talk to so one of the big appeals and
181s preference for skills is probably gonna
182s be the new agility course it's a little
184s bit different to module accustomed that
186s there's shortcuts that you can unlock as
188s you go around the shortcut changes each
190s lap so you gotta be encouraging you to
191s pay attention with proofing us because
194s of how big it is because of how people
196s been waiting for it so long it was
197s really important to us what you got it
199s right so we've been trying to involve
201s players every step of the way we've done
202s be usual putting out blogs getting
204s feedback on them but we've also been
205s doing internal player visits or have
208s been bringing people into the studio to
210s try out the new content and get their
211s feedback and make changes based on what
213s they recommend some of the hours so far
215s is looking absolutely fantastic the
217s update as a whole I think people are
219s going to be absolutely blown away by the
221s amazing graphics have been utilized and
223s the whole idea that everyone enjoys as
225s much as I've enjoyed it over the last
226s few days so the means to combat
230s opportunities that come to you with this
231s update are going to be the gauntlet
233s which is a sort of really
234s self-sufficient combat challenge where
237s you're going with absolutely nothing and
238s xikar know which is the skilling boss
240s which we really want to make feel like a
242s plastic runescape boss where you're
244s really in danger all the time so the
246s idea behind the gauntlet is that it's a
248s training ground for the elves
250s so within prifddinas they have this area
252s where they can train combat and that's
254s accessed through the Android clan you
257s can go in there and you can practice
259s your combat skill up in a really fun
263s song timed environment
267s like a new PBM challenge with a big boss
269s at the end of this lane after you
271s explore a bunch of rooms a new boss
273s comes along you have to prepare all of
274s your weapon and armor and food you can
276s fight it and off itself is really hard
278s even if light compared to it the best
280s gear I would say the gauntlet is quite
282s different from other pieces of content
283s just because it's got that time-based
285s factor to it
286s but obviously you want to do stuff as
288s fast as possible because then you're
289s getting more runs than per hour but with
291s this I feel like you're rewarded a lot
293s more because you're aware the times that
296s are going on and when you get into the
298s boss room a lot faster and complete
300s overall you get more runs per hour and
301s probably more profits per hour as well
303s it's something that's really addicting
305s as well this is something you keep going
306s back to and it's really very competitive
308s as well because in the time-based thing
310s [Music]
317s Sol Cano is this super cool new skilling
320s boss that you can access once you're
322s within breath she's a mining box and so
327s introducing this new fun way prepares to
330s interactively improve their - go Sol
333s Cano has a really interesting story
335s she was actually cursed by the MARAC to
338s turn into stone after her brother
339s betrayed him
341s zemerik cursor turned to stone and only
344s promised allistic earth if she managed
345s to return her brother to him in order to
348s punish him but she failed is still stone
361s most of folks has been on the inside of
363s a city but we knew we wanted to tidy up
365s the area around prif with the coastline
368s and whatnot so we've actually added a
370s small little village just north of the
371s city as well so you've got Gweneth where
374s players will be able to explore and
375s there's some nice sort of like new
377s Easter eggs there as well that they'll
378s be able to enjoy to the back of prif to
380s the west we've also created a new dock
382s area that they'll be able to exit the
383s back of the city to travel out to
385s various places in the world as well
388s [Music]
390s all the activities improve this will
393s have a chance are giving crystal shards
394s as a reward these crystal shards can be
396s combined with new drops from the new
398s bosses to create brand new items so from
401s a goner there's no crystal armor seed
403s that can be used to make crystal armor
404s and there's also the blade of sale door
406s a new high level sword and then from
409s zell Cano
409s we've got the tool seeds and they can be
411s used to make brand new crystal pickaxes
413s crystal axes and crystal harpoons to
416s start some of the elves players only to
418s have finished mornings in part two and
420s making history on top of that we'll need
422s to have level 70 in 8 different skills
424s IATI construction Erbe law hunter
427s farming wood cutting mining and smithing
430s i think it's gonna be really exciting
432s when people first enter this city
433s because they've been waiting so long for
435s it I think it's gonna be a really
437s awesome experience when finally all to
438s walk through those gates at the end of
439s the quest it's gonna be interesting to
441s see what people do first such I'm not
442s quite sure that imagine we get some
444s peoples we're going to do some exploring
446s some people probably go straight for the
447s new bosses so it's gonna be quite
449s exciting on launch day to see actually
450s what which areas people go to first
453s players should definitely aim to
455s complete some of ales because it's the
456s only way we're going to get access to
458s proofing us and all the awesome new
459s content inside and no one wants to be
461s the last person sat outside that city
463s while everyone's having fun in there
466s [Music]
475s you
