Talk:Troll Invasion

Me and a friend both got to wave 19, I who am 63 summ got 28378 summoning exp, while he who is 105 dung got 80k dungeoneering exp.

Did the whole 20 wave version and got 50720 xp with 80 herblore.Valinxh 15:58, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

Did the defensive gameplay version. With 1100 trolls killed, I got approximately 43k runecrafting exp at 89 rc. I think we can safely say that the defensive version doesn't get as much xp as the combat version. Tomomi 16:35, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

I did the defensive version, got 34k rc xp with lvl 78 rc and 1060 trolls killed. AnselaJonla

2nd System Update
So there was a 2nd system update about 20 mins after the one that introduced troll invasion. Anyone noticed any bugs/glitches or know why this happened?

-maybe its because on the last like 3 waves you no longer get supplies from the table? idk if its intentional or not
 * |This is a link to Mod Ash tread about the reboot, and here is his message.
 * I'm afraid we're going to have to reboot the servers again in a few minutes to fix a bug that's kicking people offline. ::We're very sorry about the inconvenience, especially for anyone who's trying to play with the new troll waves.

 * P.S. For what it's worth, the bug affects people who've clicked on things that they shouldn't be able to see. The server's not handling it very well anymore.

 * Am I the only person who did the skilling portion instead of the combat portion? :s 71.195.153.54 16:05, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I did the skilling portion. Made the "Tips for Defensive Gameplay" section on the article. Hope it suffices for now. AnselaJonla

Does anyone know a formula for this? I tried Levelx 25x amount of waves, but it didn't work out. Why multiplied by 25? Because they said it was similar to peng hide n seek :o

Getting started
Are the right-click options there the first time you go, or do they only appear after you've played at least once?

There were there before I played. --Uffa 64 20:31, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

20 Wave Experience
Some rough notes from my attempt. I am combat 138 and did the 20 wave option. It was not too hard. Completed all waves. I meleed. Wore Bandos, D boots, whip, Dragonfire shield, fury, soul wars cape. D claws in inventory for special. Took a unicorn. Inventory was extreme attack, str & def, 3 prayer pots, unicorn scrolls & rest sharks. Had 2 prayer pots & about 5 sharks left at end.

Tips

 * Turn off auto-retaliate - stops you being dragged into the pass to get pounded with rocks.
 * Do not run all way north to the pass unless you have to as the ranged rocks hit through prayer. I was knocked down to 200 lp for 990 lp quite quick as I wasn't paying enough attention.
 * Lure the trolls in front of the gateway if possible as the guards on the towers will attack them which helps a lot.
 * Look out for dynamite trolls - one blew up my supply table earlier on, I did use table once, it reset all stats back to max including prayer. (Slightly annoying as I was extreme potted at time....)
 * For Cliff (the wave 20 boss) I just had protect range prayer on. He hardly hit me. Not sure if that was because he seemed stuck at end of pass.
 * I found the range trolls the bigger problem. When I used prayer I used protect range. Didn't use any other protect prayers.
 * @ 97 hunting I got nearly 75k reward. (forgot to note exact xp)
 * I think next time I might take a bow but only to lure the trolls that stay away from the gate house closer.

Good luck - it was fun :-)

Organization of Page
Can someone please fix the organization in the page? I was thinking of the headlines to be something like "(information)", "Combat", "Skilling", "Glitches", "Trivia"... But there are other ways to reorganize it. Either way, it needs better organization, not just "Gameplay" "Tips about Gameplay" Etc... Thanks!~ -- 00:20, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Plants vs Zombies?
Can someone here explain the trivia to me about this? I've played Plants vs Zombies a ton, but the only part similar in my eyes in the fact that it's like Tower Defense games. Elysian Aura 03:52, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Battle for Helm's Deep
Don't you guys think this is 100% like the battle for Helm's deep from Lord of the Ring? Dynamite trolls breaking the walls, archers firing arrows at the trolls etc? Can see many similitudes tbh.

Somethings
Max heal of sons by father is possibly a bit higher than 150, i was seeing 156's.

The milk reference seems more of a Duke Nukem reference to me.

Dynamite seemed to me to always take out the supply table even when he wasnt near the table. =\

But just a few things i noticed

And my question, does the hard mode give better rewards?
