Barrows questions
I dont think you can... Well i've had to kill them all before. (feel free to correct me) Also, you dont range karil, you mage him even though his mage defence is high, it's still easier than trying to range/melee him. You could take a DDS i guess a trip a spec on ahrim, but you'd probably only need 60 range to kill him about 3-4 times quicker than 53 range - I'd advise you get 60 range before you go to barrows. Also, i just saw your second question; If you dont intend to pray on torags, dharocks, ahrim and guthans, then wear RUNE armour and range armour for ahrim. Last time i looked, i think slayer dart is still effected by your mage bonus, as every expert barrower i see still wears mystic/spiltbark when using slayer dart.

Rule on title editing~New suggestion
Im not saying that people need to edit the entire first post, just the title... And, to be serious, all new topics have probably been answered on, about, page 3 of help and advise, people are just to lazy to look it up in seach. For example; 'Help On Desert Treasure'... I post them the link to a player made guide which has everything they'll need to know. *Next day and this post is on the second page* Another user posts; 'Im stuck on Desert treasure' - I once again refer them to the same guide as i did 16 hours ago, and their problems are answered... IF people did use the search button, 90% of their questions could be answered without the topic even needing to be made.

Powerleveling .. which route?
Erm, from looking at your stats now, i'd personally get 99 fishing/cooking first... So you dont give up. As you wc is so low, you may just wanna burn the willows for 99 Firemaking and make Yews longs for 99 fletching, but just not bother about 99 Woodcut for now.

Agility Training
I heard thats very poor xp. This guide says that Barbarian village IS the BEST xp for levels 32-42. I'd advise you to look at that guide, as its very concise.

Powerleveling .. which route?
Personally i'd sell the willows and buy a dragon axe. Cut Willows all the way to 99 Woodcut. Then use the willows to get 99 Firemaking. Then get your fletching up by buying yew longs (u), stringing them and making yew longs. Fly fish and fish monks at shilo village for fishing levels. Then cook the products for 99 cooking. Whatever little amount of money you may lose on feathers, you'll make 100X more back on 99 fletching.

What mage armor is better?
Mystic is much better... You'd be pretty stupid to wanna fight someone using mage upfront anyway... Seeing as most mages use safespots.

99 wcing
100% willows with rune axe... I've gone from 73-79 Wc in about 10 hours cutting Willows outside Barbarian outpost. Also, you may think a d ace would be faster, but i was just cutting with a level 98 wcer with a d axe, and i was banking for often than he was. Rune axes are hawt... Stick with it, and stick with your goal. Im going for it also. Edit: If you also look at the time it could take to cut 3k mage, you could probably get 20-26kwillows. Goodluck.

close this please
House combat arena? Ooh, never thought of that. Also, edit the title if you want it to get locked.

Nerd or just plain bored?
Or 5 hours watching Tv. Its irelevant what you do in those 5 hours to be honest... If you sit and look at the wall for 5 hours, thats not no-lifing? :XD: In the middle of winter, MMORPG's are probably the best thing about.

santas
Just took a look on the Official to check if i can afford when my pures unbanned, and it looks like Greens are still about 18.8. Santas appear to be 19.9-20.5...

67 to 80 range
Hm, well get snakeskin boots and wear an archer helm... Should be the same range bonus ish. Your best bet would be to look at the xp you get in an hour, look at how many knifes you've lost in the hour, and then figure it out like that.
-
67 to 80 range
I'd say about 10-20k... Depends on the rate off loss, and how often people still them. Do you range in a Robin set and archer ring?
-
Bones to peaches
Its 240 of each and 2400 enchantment last time i looked. I chose to upgrade my wand to master, as opposed to getting the spell.
-
close this please
If you're planning on 100% failing, and using another player to attack, then you'd have to use either the duel arena of wildy. The duel arena wont let you alch... And i dont think you can alch if someones attacking you in the widly. Unless you turn auto-retaliate off.

Agility Training
I went to 32 in the Gnome stronghold and then potted to get into Barb. Took me just a day to get from 32-45.
-
santas
Well they've dropped nearly 5m in a month and a half, and greens are down to 19.6m... I'd advise you to just keep the cash, and if you see a little rise, go in and get one. My mate paid 39.7m for his red mask in October last year, now they're strugling to sell for 36m

Glory Amulet teleporting in the Abyss
You can use House Tellytabs and have a single glory in your house, but that takes a long time eventually. When i rc'd, i brought 27 glories, which gives 108 trips. Thats about 3k nats. When they all run out, just go charge em all up. Then when you're done, sell em on. Also, you dont need to take the glory off to use it, click operate from the layout - I realised this out after about 6k nats :XD:

~99/99 Firemaking! THE RACE IS STILL ON!
On blogs, get each person to post straight after you do, so they can edit their own post when they want. For example; You're the author. You post first. Then straight after say, Poker posts. Then the third racer. Get about 5 racers, make sure they're all on at the same time, and post all at the same time. Also: Stress people not to post till everyone has made their post. Goodluck. :

Veracs flail?
Veracs flail is technically stronger than a whip, but as its two-handed, whip gives you the choice to hold a rune defender, which then makes it superior the the power of a flail. Plus, you need to fix flails ;) For strength training, i'd use a Dragon scimi as its faster, and you can use a defender.
-
Where to?
Go for 70, 70, 70. Then 52 pray as 49 looks odd.
-
Fletching
I went from 91-99 fletching in six days from stringing bows. Use this set up at either Cwars or Al-kharid Duel arena bank. U = Unstrung yew longs B = String * = Any unequipable item UUUU UUUU UUUU USSS SSSS SSSS SSU* Withdraw the (U)s first, then the strings. Use the U at the bottom on the bolded S as its easier than using it on the italic one.

Rule on title editing~New suggestion
I did look about but couldn't find the other suggestion. Thanks for the link though. Search hasn't been great on my computer recently. #-o Thanks for liking the second idea. I'll edit my post so it only has that idea, given my other has been already suggested.

Bones to peaches
This is a player made guide which will tell you everything you need to know about/how to get it/cost/is it good etc. I personally think its a brillaint spell if you're killing things that drop runes; eg. Dust devils.

Rule on title editing~New suggestion
I'll start with; 'Rule on title editing'. Lets have some examples; :-w Example 1: The user has now responded to all the posts, of which told him the same thing anyway, and yet two people still respond to it, after he is probably ever going to look at it again... Example 2: Once again, a simple question which is answered, the person repsonds having verifactation from the Runescape home site, and then 3 posts down someone posts what's been said 4 times already AND verified before... =; Well heres the suggestion. Well i've been posting around Help and Advice alot lately as its half term and all im doing is woodcutting, and i've found alot of the questions asked, only take about 5-10 minutes to answer. Some questions only (and tend too) require one response from another user also... Now, i think there ought to be a rule, that once the question has been answered, the author MUST edit the title saying it has been answered, and either report the thread, or leave it be to get locked later. Now, thats not just it. Furthermore, players should be discredited to post on the thread, if the question has been answered properly, and the situation disolved. Obviously if the thread were say, 'what is better a or b', then thats requires the opinion of many, and not just a factual answer. So, why should they do this? Now, sadly people seem to like post count, as opposed to helping people. They see Help and Advise as an easy way to get their count up... 9/10 they'll just repeat what the other person has said, or post a completely pointless piece of information that has no positive impact... For example, one person (not naming) got over 80 posts in one night, 3/4 of which they got from posting on Help and Advise.. .Furthermore, 90% of those posts on Help and Advise, were just quotes other people had made. Why is that a problem? Well, I for one get frustrated how certain users post exactly what you've said, and try to get credit for it. Also, they're practically posting 'spam' on boards, just to recieve an extra number by their name. Spam is posting pointless information... So, if the questions been answered, somone posting the exact same thing again is pointless isn't it? So i see it as spam... Which should not be tolerated. Conclusion: Construct a new rule that once a question has been answered, which requires just the correct fact, the author MUST edit the title and allow it to be locked. Furthermore, users who post once the question is answered, should be disciplined, if the post is deemed as pointless or repeated information. Edit: This part is new as i have noticed a potential problem. ~Once the user has posted back on the thread he/she made, and has made it clear the post has been answered, then the title SHOULD be edited... I guess i forgot to add that after 'author MUST edit the post'... Maybe i was thinking to intelligently when i meant the author is going to have to read the post to edit the title. :roll: Feel free to post your ideas. Gin_and_Tonic.
