  1. Does anyone know a way to have both the cooking and goldsmithing gauntlets at the same time? I'd like to use both when getting my shattered heart stones, but it's to much of a pain to keep changing them so I usually just do without for one of them.
  2. It's kind of funny, every time one of these "what should I block" threads gets created it basically goes down the same way. One group of people say, "I block X, Y, and Z", and another group of people come out and reply, "Are you crazy?!?! X, Y and Z are amazing!" I block a task basically because it annoys me. Living rock creatures, Wyverns, Dark Beasts, and Black demons are all really slow for me, waste prayer pots, have no really good drops, and don't drop clue scrolls. Kalphites are just too crowded. So that's my list. Try doing this.... Next time you go for a new task, there will be a split second between the time when you click "I need a new task" and when the window comes up telling you what your task is. If during that split second you find yourself thinking "Oh dear lord, I really, really, really hope I don't get task X", then task X is probably a good one to block
  3. I'm trying to sort out solo dungeoneering myself also. Just out of curiosity when you say that you "rush" the higher level floors, what does that mean exactly? I'm guessing that it just means that you don't kill any monsters that you don't have to or open any rooms that you don't have to. Anything else to it besides that? And how does that affect your XP rates?
  4. I like the effort, but it really irks me that people have to come up with such a cludge just to be able to play the game. I will definitely give it a try the next time I need a team.
  5. I'll repost what I wrote in your thread asking about crafting rocks. Still works just as good.... How about start with an inventory of gold ore, smelt it to bars and then craft it to amulets all in one trip. You get a chance at two different rocks without a lot of banking.
  6. Why would it get removed from the game then? I thought Jagex encouraged emergent gameplay. I thought that they did everything in their power to hunt down and destroy emergent gameplay. How many times have we heard that they removed something because players weren't using it "as intended".
  7. Regarding make-x no longer working with a BoB..... Basically confirms everything that I've ever thought about the developers.

  9. I honestly don't know, but my instinct is to say no. Since the fish are the reward from a minigame, I don't think that a boost would affect what you get. When would you boost anyway..... Before the start of the game? Constantly throughout the game? Before you collected the fish? I don't think that it'll work out.
  10. I killed Jessika. Do either of them really die? I chose to save Jessika, but during the fight Kurasi was sitting there leaning against a pillar. I talked to her to get my sword back, and she said that she'd be OK.
  11. I sure hope they'll only add the option, so you can still choose. That is the case with altaring now, so it should be ok. What would really be nice is a sticky number like when withdrawing from a bank, so like if I do a "make 30" one time, the 30 comes up as an option the next time.
  12. I just completed the Evil Dave court case and got 5 spicy stews as a reward, but when I examine them they don't appear to have any spice in them at all. Does anyone know what happens if you eat one? I suspect that they don't do anything but heal, but I'd hate to waste them if they do something really good.
  13. Its highly subjective to your agility level though. If you're low this is true, but when you get to about 80+ (as the op is) rest then run, beats walking Look up a few posts. At 86 agility it is still a tie. In my experience from 80+ resting was definitely faster than walking. Try doing your own test and look at the actual numbers. It only seems faster.

  15. That's cool. My numbers weren't exactly 2x as fast when running, but it was pretty close. I was at level 86 agility. It may make some difference in the numbers if I has a different level, but I bet the two method will still be pretty close at any level.
  16. I just did a little test to see how the numbers would actually work out. I started from a point south of Nardah, and ran due north to where the Phoenix hangs out (the longest straight-shot that I could find on the map) . Then I turned run off and walked back the same distance. I then ran around until my run ran out and measured how long it took for my run to restore while both walking and resting. Running time: 96 sec Walking time: 183 sec Recovery walking: 100 sec Recovery resting: 30 sec Just to make everything more understandable, I'm going to declare that the distance that I traveled between Nardah and the Phoenix is 1 KM. It doesn't really matter what the actual distance is since I'm only trying to compare the two methods. So, using these numbers, I can run at 35.5 km/hr and walk at 19.7 km/hr. If i decide to run/walk I will spend my time running for 96 seconds at 35.5 km/hr and then walking for 100 seconds at 19.7 km/hr. Doing the math, I will travel 1.54 KM in 196 seconds which works out to 28.3 km/hr. If i decide to run/rest I will spend my time running for 96 seconds at 35.5 km/hr and then resting for 30 seconds at 0 km/hr. Doing the math, I will travel 1 KM in 126 seconds which works out to 28.6 km/hr. It looks like the run/rest method is slightly better, but my measurements are probably off by a second or so here and there, so I'd probably say that its most likely a tie between them both. And certainly neither method is "best by far".
  17. Sorry about that. That was a quote that I heard, and I was dying for a reason to use it.
  18. I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
  19. There is no difference in the way you look at it on the ground. You have to pick it up and, in some cases, read it, before you can know whether it's elite. Every one that I've ever gotten has looked different. Kind of like a regular scroll with a little tail. I don't know if they are all like that, but for me they have been.
  20. I like to keep things like hellhounds, greater demons, dagganoths and similar monsters aggressive all the time. It seems like every time I need to walk away to keep them aggressive I have to walk further than the last time. My guess is that it does have to do with a map load point, and as you wander around an area the maps get cached so they don't need to load as often.
  21. I didn't mean to ask if it will count for the task, I was wondering if it works at all. So basically my question is.... if I boost to the level will I get the double nats? I'm only asking because the last time there was a runecrafting task involving the giant pouch, the boost didn't help.
  22. Does anyone know if you can use stews to boost to 91 for double nats? If it's possible then I might just give the Karamja diary a shot. If not, any other suggestions? I'd like to complete the diary, but not so much that I want to spend 4 months doing nothing but runecrafting.
  23. Anyone having trouble with the extreme ranging potion? I made the potion in the guild, and the game showed me that the diary was updated. When I drank it though, nothing happened. Do you have to make the potion completely from scratch, or be standing somewhere specifically?
  24. I like being given a goal to shoot for, and I'll definitely be doing some training, but 92 runecrafting is just simply out of the question. I'd need to do almost 500K blood runes and I just can't make that kind of commitment. It's pretty sad. This is the very first activity in Runescape that I'm simply writing off as un-doable.
  25. Looking at your stats, it seems like you have a lot of patience, like to skill, and like to click a lot. How about doing agility first, then mining/smithing. You can do the gold mining with superheating technique and knock them both out at the same time. Agility is free and sort of rare, and the rest are also pretty rare and will just cost you the price of the nature runes.
