How will they muck up the PVP worlds? And have you played the Hallow'een quest? I hate people who think everything is doomed to fail because Jagex made it. To be honest all holiday events are rubbish, but then they are only about for 2 weeks then gone. It's part of the charm of holiday events, spending 15-20 minutes on something utterly crap for a utterly crap reward. Gets you into the spirit of the holidays.

That spell takes up too many inventory spaces to be viable (3 spaces = 3 brews = 180 HP; you will need to be using Dream for an hour straight if you want it to work) Not to mention you cannot fight and use Dream as you get put into a "dream" state. Not at all good for slayer.

Yes do the quests. Lunar is worth it. Humidify alone isn't worth it. XP is same as alching but alching is quicker so you're doing it for profit. It's time consuming and very boring.

I can't find what familiar this is, anyone know? I initially thought that is was a new monster, but theres no health bar on the beast meaning it isn't in combat. To me it looks like the 2 characters with health bars are fighting each other and the beast is a familiar of the melee dude. Obviously its common knowledge the players are wearing new gear, probably the PvP rewards, but no one seems to be mentioning the familiar!

I'd add them to your banned list. They hit hard through even the best armour and there is no way to totally void there hits so you need food as well as pots. (Can't Guthan as taking off elemental shield is a death wish). You can range them but you need them to go non-aggro first which involves 20 mins of doing nothing. The drops are not worth the time, yes they drop a lot of crimsons but so do Waterfiends and you can at least Guthan there. Visage is so rare it's not worth going for and the granite legs are here nor there compared to the amount of each trip.

One might speculate that since the ranger has his/her health bar showing that she is fighting the beast. I mean that seems to be the easiest explanation. But then again I just love how people jump right for the most ridiculous stuff when Runescape is involved :D I initially thought that, but theres no health bar on the beast meaning it isn't in combat. To me it looks like the 2 characters with health bars are fighting each other and the beast is a familiar of the melee dude.

I can't find what familiar this is, anyone know or is it new?

I'd hope spawn points were "safe" to at least give people a chance at re-stocking.

I bought 50k pouches instead of 50k shards.

Don't most Rune Miners use the one near the Dark Beasts still?

Agreed. Skillers, which atm is the majority of players, will avoid PvP worlds which overcrowds the non-PvP ones. I like the way Jagex think people going for 99 woodcutting will use PVP worlds to fight for trees. :wall: Only plus point is there will be some safe spots, so PvP banks will be nice, plus being a high level I can risk using the PVP worlds for certain things if pushed.

No real "quests" so to speak of? Grrrrr. You know the holiday event one will be naff.

This method powered me to 80 crafting from the mid-60's and made me millions, and yes I mean millions. Firstly you need Lunars unlocked and the spell Super Glass Make. The joy of this spell is it gives you extra molton glass, approx 1.3x the raw materials. So each cast with 13 raw materials usually nets you 16-20 glass. So for 1k raw materials you get 1.3k glass. I used to buy from the GE in 1k quantities of seaweed and sand. Factoring in all costs (runes as well) I was making a profit all the time, as well as 130 crafting XP per cast and a little bit of mage XP. Sadly I had to stop shortly after the release of summoning as sand got too expensive to make it worthwhile (it's not as fast as other methods), however it won't take you long to work out if it is profitable now. I'd imagine it should be.

I get all my charms via slayer as it balances nicely. My advice would be to save blues for as long as you can though. Train with golds, greens and crimsons using the most cost efficient 2nd to you. Don't worry too much about shard cost as you'll get 70% of it back. If you can't be bothered with slayer then crimsons offer the best XP ratio. Waterfiends, Nechreals and Dust Devils are great for these. Skelly Wyverns I hear are the best droppers of these but are a bit of pain to get to and kill. If you're insistant on golds/greens. Golds are common from Fire Giants and Hellhounds (and I hear the new Armoured Zombies from Defender of Varrock quest) and greens from Bloodveld and metal dragons. Don't go hunting for blues as it's pointless but for information Kalphites and Gargolyes drop these more than most. Dark Beasts drop them pretty often and are the best dropper, but the 90 slayer requirement puts most people off. I don't DK, but the things in the DK lair drop them often too.

I'm actually thinking these are the best "gloves" in the game, It restores 60 hp an hour, 1 per minute,yes? and stocked with rapid heal that's like 90-120 hps an hour,(I'd be able to do exact numbers with the accurate prayer restoration rate) I think 120 hps-90hps is better than a slightly better and slightly more consistent hits. The def bonuses on these compared to barrows gloves isn't a factor due to the restoration effect of the brace. Void Thingy/Buyip restore HP far better and you still can wear the best combat stats gloves in the game. Even without summoning, HP isn't really an issue in most cases as you can Guthan/eat. People still use guthans? Yep, I do at 127cb and 90 def. I find some slayer tasks still require more healing than a Bunyip. Admittedly the amount I use it it is dropping, but still nice to have a backup. I'd imagine people without the summoning level for Bunyip or with less defense would still use it often.

Brine rats are great. I don't get them for slayer often enough, sure the XP is rubbish but the drops are great and you can stay there forevermore if you so chose as they all stack.

Can't find another discussion topic but from the RSOF: So we will be able to give away 60k....nice.

Most people will. This update was more for pures/non-questers.

OBJECTION! I'd wear the top, but the legs... Verac's is irriplacable. Then you'd need an extra inventory slot if you use Guthans to heal. It's just easier sticking to Guthans even though the stats are slightly less.

Just make them into bows (u). Don't string them it's a waste of time and money. You can use the unstrung bows as junk.

Cos the GE is annoying as hell. Hows about a list: 1. People just congregate there for no apparant reason lagging up the people who are there to trade/bank. Usually they stand in a long line and emote at the same time. 2. It's spammy as hell and you miss private messages. If you turn public off then you get people reporting you for macroing as they think you are ignoring them. 3. Theres usually beggers asking for 3k. 4. You cannot have a familiar out as it lags too much, yet they allow firemaking... I'm one of those people who would like GE functions at all major banks. At least then I can avoid the noobs.

I'd get full Guthans and just use the body/skirt as standard slayer gear. You can then swap in the spear/helm whenever you need a heal. The stats are not that different and are bearly noticable.

I don't understand people like yourself (not trying to be offensive). If you work out how long it takes for you to do the quest, in that time you could of had double the exp in each of those skills and that's generally the case for every quest. What is there to understand? I hate training Mining and Hunter so some free exp for doing a quest is a nice reward. I don't really care if I could get double the exp, why should I do something I don't like in a game? :roll: I don't understand people like you, who have to analyse every single piece of data in the game and try to enforce your ridiculous views onto other people. Don't forget that each new quest adds quest points to your total, which in turn increases your time at Tears of Guthix every week. Those points/seconds add up, and contribute much-needed EXP to your worst skills. Actually since the start of 08 tears of guthix max time has not increased. Instead each new quest point simply means 1 qp is worth less time there so those quest points addition simply mantain your current tears time Yep. Also QP is used for trade limits and I would hazard a guess that the upcoming uber quest (only 5 away if it is 150) will have a high QP requirement for part, if not all, of it.
