Petition to have Jegax to never put another slide puzzle in a quest again.

[@Kranon]

Come on it wasn't that bad. Call me a masochist, but doing so many Clues basically made me immune to the sliders haha.

[@danielrolf3768]

Or make alt 1 useable with it

[@MSeroga]

Idk I just did it in a few mins without a guide... I thought it wasn't too bad.

[@shadetsg4025]

The blue background of the puzzle should fit together and some spots are pretty obvious, just do 1x5 rows from top to bottom for first 3, then left 2x2, last 3x2 should be simple. Took me like 6 mins

[@MSeroga]

@@shadetsg4025 Yup do it as you would every other sliding puzzle, and the outsides being clearly marked helps a ton.

Despite the fact that sliding puzzle was truly painful for you, and yet you still went out of your way to give SO much advice on how to do them, shows just how dedicated you are on guiding us through something. The work and effort you put into your videos doesn't go unnoticed and we greatly appreciate it

Thankyou for the tip on how to solve the slide puzzle I'm not sure 100% how I got it but I got it and its always evaded me how these work.

[@lorrainegardner6015]

Excellent walkthrough, thank you very much! It's always much more helpful for me to watch a quest rather than try to follow along with a written guide on the wiki.

[@MegadethTillDeth]

An actual mind-reader. I was just wondering about when you'd throw a guide up so I could knock this out and fletch these 200k dinarrows I've been grinding resources for. You're the man Protoxx.

[@ProtoxxGaming]

You're welcome :)

[@sjellie2094]

for the love of god how many people complain about slide puzzles yet they keep adding them in quests...

[@loki_y2k]

Expand only if you don't care about spoilers. The ability to print Elder god arrows at an absurd rate in exchange for massive XP loss is definitely a welcome change, since now people can imbue these things faster than they go through them. The caveat of course is that, as is Jagex style, you have to grind for it, which is 500 sets of arrows of a type (repeat per type), or a *very* lucky 1/1000 drop while fletching randomly, whichever happens first. Also, Raptor should've given a more proper Metroid treatment.

[@pondracek]

Ellamaria in a bikini? Wouldn't she need to be plus-sized first?

[@Deccaz]

Before the quest: Oh boy! I can't wait to fight alongside the Raptor, uncover the mysteries and unlock the fletching building! After the quest: eMoTiOnAl dAmAgE

@Protoxx, if you flip the map upside down it's a map of the Lunar Isle, Fremennik,Miscellania. However there is a new island on there that isn't on our map currently. It would be the one closest to your toon in the video.

[@Slobberbutt1]

it lines up with Ungael and Vorkath.

[@Thebt7]

that was so satisfying solving that puzzle in the end. Thanks for your help and the link to the video helped a bunch

[@ProtoxxGaming]

Finish it at McDonalds wifi with a laptop or something haha. Sounds like hell redoing it all

[@Eric4bz]

Slide puzzle was relatively easy for me. Get the corners then focus on an individual side and things line up. Still, feel bad for what happened to the Raptor. NOT what happened in the quest, but what the quest did to the Raptor.

[@slamfan666]

Thanks for the quick guide!

[@shadetsg4025]

Is nobody gonna talk about the connection to OSRS with Vorkath possibly being introduced? After seeing Zuk added in all his glory, I welcome the addition of the undead dragon.

[@Slobberbutt1]

you are correct. it all lines up. There is a new island on the map above that's in the same place as it is on OSRS Ungael is the zone and Vorkath would be the boss that is located there.

[@j.ebburts8393]

I know right? They’re teasing Vorkath as a future boss in the Fremmy region! Super excited

[@Jampolo_OG]

Will we be meeting Zorgoth too?

Keep up the great content, you’re crushing it! 👍🏼

[@Nali_Verse]

This Puzzle is easier than the common one. First as u mentioned accessibility mode. Second I did first all the outer corners as they are marked with the edge, so its easy to get them locked. Than find the bottom right two pieces and lock them in 24/25 position. Than u have one open space to get the 8 middle ones in the correct location. U can move fixed tiled to put them in right locations and than get 24 and 25 in normal positions and u finished.

02:55 For peops that are dumbfounded that they can't find a 'Dead And Buried' circle at the Varrock palace - make sure you talk to Raptor after investigating the dragonkin device as it otherwise does not appear.

[@melissagrenier2200]

I've done plenty of sliding puzzles for clues but I'm so used to having a preview button that tells me what the final solution looks like. Not knowing which pieces go where made this take a lot longer than it otherwise would have. I already knew an algorithm for solving these things but it only works if you know which piece belongs in which slot. The accessibility mode would have been helpful. I didn't know it existed. I avoided this video until I had done the quest. Solving them row by row from top to bottom and then column by column for the last 2 rows (left to right) made me feel physically nauseated. Specifically it was staring at the puzzle trying to visually figure out which piece belongs beside a certain piece that caused my nausea. I need to know what goes where to use the method I use for clue sliders.

I swear Runescape gender bending Raptor was and is plain ridiculous. Anyone with common sense knew that it was a male character and model, but no! Had to change that. You cannot tell me that a woman of her stature took on the most deadliest creatures of Runescape, one hitting them and dragging a living wyvern out of a dungeon herself. I call überschall bullshit about as much as that puzzle in the quest... "I'm not 60 years old doing that stuff on the daily". Do not care about anyone's political views but it needs to be said. Because game developers need to quit thinking of us gamers are a bunch of idiots and cannot tell what gender a character is.. It's pathetic. Runescape keeps going down this path they will loose what little player base they have left in this game.
