Taken from RuneScape.com:

The Mining Consortium in Keldagrim has finally completed work on its Blast Furnace, the pinnacle of Dwarven engineering and the most efficient ore-processing machine in RuneScape. But the Consortium is suffering from a shortage of workers, so any visitors who want to use it must get their hands dirty!

Players who are prepared to work together can gain experience in a variety of skills and smelt ore with only half the coal required by a regular furnace.


Taken from RuneScape.com's Page on the Blast Furnace:

Blast Furnace

The Blast Furnace in Keldagrim is the most efficient ore-processing machine in RuneScape, but it requires a lot of attention. A group of players must work together to keep it going:

• Someone with level 30 Firemaking to keep the stove lit.
• Someone with level 30 Strength to pump the superheated air between the stove and the furnace.
• Someone to watch the temperature gauge and tell the pumper to start and stop so that the furnace does not overheat.
• Someone with level 30 Crafting to repair parts when they break.
• Someone with level 30 Agility to work the pedal-powered conveyor belt that puts ore into the furnace.

While the furnace is working anyone can put ore onto the conveyor belt and retrieve bars from the bar dispenser. The furnace is so efficient that purifying ore takes only half as much coal as with a regular furnace. While the furnace is in use all the workers will gain experience in their respective skills and in Smithing.

Cool update I must say...another good group thing to do. Also, I think I see bar prices going down, or at least smithing levels going up.

EDIT: ok...furnace cool...the rest of the update not cool...just found out they halved exp from crumble undead and made kharil and ahrim harder in barrows...boo jagex boo! :angry:

Well, I was planning on actually quitting, but this update looks interesting. On a scale of 1-10, how good is it? Also, what quests do you have to do to get there?

Yes, something HAS happened, indeed. I suggest you go to the bank to check it out.

Ok then....

***SPOILERS, IF YOU WANT TO FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER, CTRL+A or highlight below to get the spoiler***
The wise old man of Draynor robbed the bank. The wall is patched up, new workers were hired because all of the existing ones were killed, and he killed a level 96 and took her blue partyhat.

Gay.
They made a freaking fun update for members. It's not like anything useful came out of seeing the bank recording.

It was random names, watch the video to find out yourself, anyway

One name was 1337sp34k3r
The other 2 names I forgot

But it looked like actual game talk

"Buying 2k nats, no noob offers"
"I h4v3 s0m3"
"Are you selling?"
"Tr4d3"
Then Wise old man comes in, kills them both, and then kills a lvl 16 noob witha studded bod and bunny ears.

Bad wise old man!

And today I went upstairs in his house, kicked his bead, Then I had to kill "The thing under the bed"



Something mysterious is happening.......
