RuneScape talk:Events Team/Zamorak GWD (8 January 2011)

Zamorak GWD
So we've got the basics for the event down, now for the hardest bit. The time. Suggestions? 18:33, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I suggest 20:00/21:00 UTC, as in aussieland its morning then, and in Europe its evening then. The fewest amount of people live in Asia, so making it accessible for Europeans, Americans and Aussies is imo the best. 18:39, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2000 or 2100 are usually the best times for most people. 18:51, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer something like 18:00 UTC 19:03, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1800 or 1900 works as well. ( 19:06, January 6, 2011 (UTC

- That sound good to everyone? This needs to be a quick decision so we can move on to advertising the event. The community wants quick, hassle free events? That's what we'll give em.

So, something like 2 events per week is what was asked. That means we can't do Wikifest-esq whose coming sign-ups. We need to advertise it and hope to hell that people come. This Saturday night is probably the best time for this, we can't really wait a whole week. If you guys agree on Saturday 19:00 UTC we can start advertising on the sitenotice, maybe every now and then in the cc just mention it. In future we can think about a space on the main page for events too. - 19:26, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, but not January 6th. ;P 20:01, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about 2 events a week but I agree we should get on with this. The times are great for me, and you which means most Australians too. Perhaps this Saturday (8th) would be good however this might not be enough time to get the word across, what do you think guys? 20:19, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's way too soon imo. People need time to prepare, move around their schedules, and actually see the message. 20:21, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I still think we can draw in the crowds in just a few days but oh well. Other then Saturday we could do Sunday, but if that's soon as well the next time we'd have to organise this for is next weekend, I doubt we'll be able to draw people in on a school day though, especially the Australians/Americans on the suggested times. 20:55, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Bringing a BoB
Erm, if my memory (and friends who I asked) serve me correctly, bringing a Bob or attacking familiar = boss changing targets. There's an entire section on bringing a Bob at the bottom of the article... Am I right or not..? 20:01, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * That only applies to Graardor. K'ril doesn't switch targets unless his current target leaves the room (death, teleport, forced logout). 20:26, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Question
Shouldn't all the talk about specific events go on the event page itself? It seems to me that this talk page should only be about the events teams. Either way, who is planning to tank at ZGWD? 20:33, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's what I thought, but I didn't make it so meh. (: The tankers are listed on the article... Gaz Lloyd and/or Raging Bull. 20:35, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Armour Question
Just to be clear, how would a fighter torso do here? Or do I need a dharoks/torags/guthans etc platebody? And while Im at it, what other rings options are there? 14:37, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * A torso will do just fine. Even something as cheap as a rune pl8 would do for defence. As a non-tanker you should be taking a minuscule amount of damage from the 3 sergeants. A torso also provides a str bonus which is always welcome.


 * As far a rings go. You could go with a ring of life for safety, berserk/warrior for damage/accuracy, an upgraded ring from mobilizing armies provides decent stats and an explorer's ring has a small prayer bonus. A ring of wealth won't affect drops when using Lootshare.- 14:55, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Cheers Pharos, but another question springs to mind: Korasi's sword or whip? 15:28, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
