Talk:Soul Wars

Since there's no requirement to actually do anything, and you always get the same points no matter what you've done/not done, this could be a great place to stay whilst watching a film or something similar- Just my thoughts EDIT: Just noticed, can join near the end of a game, like 1 minute away, and still receive points, seems like a good way to train, Tele there, go away to train, come back for the end? 78.146.174.205 16:58, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * It's obviously not going to stay that way for long. Jagex isn't fond of people getting rewarded for doing nothing in minigames. WWTDD? 16:59, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The problem still exists in Castle Wars. You don't need to do anything, but you still get the points if youe team wins. Perhaps Jagex needs to look into that as well...  17:11, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, Thanks for replying, it doesn't seem to be against the rules, but it does seems 'unsporting', So I think I'll not 78.146.174.205 17:16, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Mabey they will do something where you need to get 'x' number or soul fragments or deal 'y' damage to the avatar or a formula puting the two togeter (ex. you need to deal 100 damage to the avatar, but each soul frament you put in counts as 5 damage)Mathwiz908 23:09, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * All you really need to do to be of use is stand in one of the 'contested' areas. IE graveyards/pillar thingie. 198.208.251.23 23:44, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Summoning pets
If you offer a stuffed Slayer creature to the guy, will he take it from you? I have a stuffed Crawling hand in my house, and I don't really want to lose it. 17:11, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I have no experience with this, but my guess is that he will take the sample from you. WWTDD? 17:12, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Song Unlocks?
Are there any songs associated with Soul Wars? --Hatchenator 17:45, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, two songs "the Waiting game" for when you're in the game lobby, and "Soul Wars" for when you're actually playing the game. Noble fauf 18:01, 10 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks Noble fauf!  --Hatchenator 18:02, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Pictures
I will help with any pictures for this guide. Just leave a comment here and I will make one.Benrim123 18:34, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Please expand the Rewards section
Seriously how much do charms cost, we've got to figure this stuff out and stuff (lol). I'll do my part to as well, once when i'm in game... 19:20, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Im also interested in the reward formulas, but have to go to bed soon. Hope to get answer tomorrow, charms are so slow.. -Kasa pina

I've put the figures from myself and a few friends in a table, and it looks very similar to the organisation of Pest Control points - Several levels next to each other give the same experience, and there are four groups of experience gains. The first group, giving the most experience per zeal, includes attack, defence, strength and hitpoints. The second group giving slightly less is magic and ranged. prayer is on its own in the third group giving less than the others, and finally slayer which gives less than a fifth of the experience that prayer does. I have not been able to determine if the number of charms you get are dependant on combat level or summoning level because nobody I know who has been to the minigame has skill levels that would let me differentiate. --Magma2050 22:34, 10 February 2009 (UTC) - EDIT - I have just looked on the runescape forums and some helpful fellow with the same summoning level as me but a much higher overall combat level has posted his stats and rewards - The number of charms you get would seem to depend on your summoning level only, as our rewards are identical. --Magma2050 22:45, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

I've gone away, collated a few more bits of data, and tried a few things with the Pest Control formula "=CEILING((Level+25)*(Level-24)/606,1)*N". If you put in N=525 for the melee skills, 480 for the magic and ranged skills and 270 for prayer, you get values that match most of what I have collected as listed below. The only one that doesn't match is 85 atk/str/def/hp (possibly due to a typo so if anyone who has 85 in one of those skills can double check, it would be helpful), and I haven't matched up the formula with the slayer yet. I think I'll leave it for other people to experiment with because it's getting late, but I think it shows that the Pest Control formula is the way to go here.

Attack/Defence/Strength/Hitpoints: 85, 5775 xp. 86-87, 6300xp. 90, 6825xp. 92, 6825xp. 94, 7350xp. 95-96, 7875xp. 99, 8400xp.

Magic/Ranged: 83, 5280xp. 86-87, 5760xp. 90, 6240xp. 93, 6720xp. 96, 7200xp. 99, 7680xp.

Prayer: 70-71, 2160xp. 76, 2430xp. 90, 3510xp.

Slayer: 63, 540xp. 79, 810xp. 88, 990xp.

--Magma2050 23:39, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

With my current stats (see my user page) I am offered:
 * 36 blue charms for 30 Zeal,
 * 26 crimson for 12 Zeal,
 * 27 green for 5 Zeal, and
 * 41 gold for 4 Zeal.

Does that work right with the formula you've worked up? 02:38, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Equipment Stats bug???
I just reported this to runescape, but when you click on equipment stats you are in spirit / dead form you can see yourself in that form. I can't get a picture of it, but it would be good to have. Mathwiz908 23:15, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Soul War creature qeustion
If your slayer task is say, pyrefiends, if you kill them in the minigame do they count to the number of kills? Mathwiz908 23:31, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Ring of Wealth question
Does wearing a ring of wealth help improve your odds of getting a good reward from gamble? Also who here has been using ring of wealth to determin rewards? Mathwiz908 00:00, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I haven't done so but I'm pretty sure ROW will NOT give you better rewards in gamble, since it's designed to target on only monster drops. Red X 226 00:23, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * But dosn't ROW help with gameling in Barbarian Assult? So why wouldn't it also be done for this? Mathwiz908 02:35, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Elaysian
Someone posted a picture showing that they got an elasyian spirit shield from gambling in the game. Can someone confirm this? There is a small chance that the on who added the picture used paint or photoshop to make it look like it. --King x treme 00:27, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I added this picture, it is posted in the forums of my clan, and it is not me. Not sure if they edited it, i tried to zoom in on it, didn't see any "twix" And I also saw someone on the rs forums saying that they got a elysian as well.--Nosa

I read that part of the forums. Lots of people say its fake... if there is a video or something that may prove it, then the minigame might give it as a reward. --King x treme 00:49, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

even a video can be faked Axearmour1 00:53, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Fury?
Ive heard several players claiming that they have received Amulets of fury as a reward from the gamble. Is it possible there is any merit to this?

possible, some people even got higher rewards, such as elysian--Nosa
