I was really, really lucky; as I walked from Lumbridge to Varrock (a huge navigational feat by the way, you obsessive teleporters should try it sometime :P), a very, very kind level 60 called Eggterminato gave me full bronze (he was smithing in the Varr smithy), and a few GP. Chuffed, I walked quite happily into Varrock, taking in all the pretty RSC graphics. Then I went farther North. And farther. Until I went to level 10 wildy, and my poor level 3 character got killed not by a vicious PKer...but by a giant. I didn't touch the Wildy for over a year, and until 6 months ago, I killed giants for GP. The drag scim was so different from the bronze longsword, and boy, did those guys know it. :twisted: Another memory: I got a steel med from a guard, and it was my combat helmet for nearly four months. I lost it to a werewolf near the Fremmy lands after it was released. :cry:
