MTK and spirit seeds
I usually get about 2 per week, roughly. It's worth doing MTK for them, plus all the other profit.

87 Mining, been getting some fishing done. Failed merch today, but I broke about even lol. Took my last midterm of the term tonight, for Biology. Glad that's over with.

Shadow Warrior
Now, it seems true that Shadow Warriors drop more Crimson Charms than the other charms, however, I'm not sure if it's worth noting this in the notes section. Looking at other monsters in the Bestiary, it seems as if only the best Crimson Charm droppers have notes about this. Not to mention that Shadow Warriors are no longer deemed to be a very great source of experience, as they once were "back in the day." However, I would be perfectly willing to go check it out and get another opinion on the charm drop rate. Also, if you happen to see this post, about how often are the charms dropped? Because if you don't get a very good charm:kill ratio, then it wouldn't seem to be a very good source. However, if it is a good ratio, it might be!

Jungle strykewyrm notes
Tested this out with my task of Jungle and Desert Strykewyrm tasks, you need to move at least 2 steps away from the wyrm to avoid it's attack. So Vhellcat is correct.

Familiarisation - Corrections/Comments
My summoning seconds ended up being for something I don't have the level for and dreadfowls. Something I'm ridiculously high level for and am best not wasting the time making. (Why oh why couldn't I have gotten something useful like snakeskins? I currently need those.) Oh hey, guess I read that somewhere. Sources can't always be correct ;)

Incorrect Information in Beginner's Reference
Vulxai, it was switched to Varrock back when Jagex decided to make Draynor, Lumbridge, and Varrock more friendly to lower levels. So they decided to move the Air Altar just west of Varrock West Bank. And this is understandable, since when one little thing gets changed, it means that many guides end up needing a tweak. By chance, could you post a link of the specific guide, since you weren't all that specific? I'm sure that would end up helping out the Crew a lot.

Spirit trees with farming
For teleporting use, I'd find Brimhaven to be the best location. However, I use Port Sarim, but not for teleporting, as I don't really need the extra tree. I only have it there, as it's very close to Cabbage Port/Draynor bank, and I just replant it as soon it's done growing. I get enough seeds from MTK to keep the process going. Easy ~20k xp :) And Calquats are worth it. A great amount of experience, for not that much money. Do it, and make sure to have the payment (8 poison ivy berries). And speaking of payments, make sure to gather the payment for your Spirit Tree. It's worth the extra time to gather the materials in order to make sure it survives. It's a lot of Farming xp :D

Familiarisation - Corrections/Comments
Yes, I'm sure that the Oo'glog pool effect will get changed one of these days, however, at the current moment it works ;) But also, I think that it would be far to difficult to include a drop log from the box. As far as I know, you can be given any two Summoning seconds (assuming you have the level for it to be used), which, last time I looked, was mentioned in the guide. However, it might be useful to mention the price range of the ingredients that are given out, which is commonly 50-150k. With a drop log, it would just be listing all of the seconds, and researching the number of items you can get, which would take a very long time to do so.

Got 93 Fishing today, and almost 87 Mining, will get that tomorrow. Decided that while mining, I will also be superheating my gold, as to get cheap and fast smithing xp. I consider this fast, since it really is just me getting smithing xp while mining at nearly the same rate. Also... Dun dun dun, I sold my purple phat... I sort of miss it, but at the same time, I don't at all. Anyways, with it, I'm up to about 413m cash and also got a Focus Sight and a Hexcrest as well, to make a full slayer helmet. Yay. My next 99s will be a mixture of Mining, Fishing, and Hunter, hopefully... Trying to knock the gathering skills out of the way, and getting my money up. Then I'll focus solely on Agility, Slayer, and Runecrafting. And then finally the buyables.

evil stew
From my experience, getting a positive or negative effect from Evil Stews both have the same chance. Of course though, getting higher levels boosted or lowered have a difference chance though.

Fishing: 90-99, how?
Rocktails are presumed to be very good, since you get a decent amount of experience (about 35-40k xp/hr) as well as decent profit, at about 2200-2300 each now. However, if you want speed, without dropping, then you might want to consider Shilo powerfishing. And as lots of other people previously mentioned with Rocktails, using a Granite Lobster or Ibis to help speed things up, as well as fishing in w84 and wearing a bit of armor with preferably an Enhanced Excalibur to heal hp if you lose any. And buy your Living Minerals. Enjoy fishing!

LumberYard
Around 80k with the Crystal Saw. Would be 15-20k xp less without I believe. Possibly a bit more actually.

LumberYard
It does not revert, it is just a normal saw when using it with Sawmill training. However, I disagree with what Zaaps said. I know for sure that is is twice the experience of actually cutting planks. But I'm not sure if it is faster or not. So use a Crystal Saw if you have it, no doubt about it. The experience difference per hour will probably be ~15-20k xp, so it is worth it. When I tested Sawmill training out, I got around 80k xp/hr at 96 Woodcutting.

RCing for cash
Mousekeys have actually sped up my Runecrafting by about 200-300 essence per hour. Just depositing and withdrawing from bank. Most people do not use mousekeys to withdraw from pouches, as it's pretty easy. My best essence/hour rates are ~3,450 ess/hr with Graahk, ~2950-3000 ess/hr through Abyss using all pouches and familiar. Haven't tested out Astrals. But, do a combination of Deaths and Bloods, whichever is closer when you enter the Abyss, and then do Astrals at 82.

How to make money by Making Scrolls from Pouches.
It draws it's information automatically from the Grand Exchange as soon as it updates. Maybe the reason fruit bat pouches have the same profit is because they really do - did you check the Runescape Database to make sure? Well I did just now and it is in fact correct -.-. Actually, it doesn't auto-update :wink: And Cod, Wtf? 4k an hour with kyatt? Mousekeys make banking incredibly faster.

Old calc corrections
Although this isn't an item to be added to the calculator, it is probably a good idea to add Curses to the calculator. My recommendations would be to add Leech Strength (Initial) and Leech Strength (Final), with 5% and 10% bonuses respectively. Also, Turmoil (Initial) and Turmoil (Final), with 23% and 33% bonuses respectively (but up to 9 levels added for the 33% bonus). I wouldn't be surprised if this has already been taken into consideration, but I noticed it wasn't on the calculator, so I thought I would mention it. [crew response: Per your suggestion we have added the Leech Strength curse to the list of prayers. Unfortunately, we cannot add the Turmoil curse as there is no accurate way to factor it in. We also added the Leech info to the Ranged max hit calc. Thanks for your post.] [additional crew response: Just a heads up - Turmoil has since been added as of May 27, 2010]

:: tripsis :: 99 Woodcutting!
How are you RCing your natures? Abyss or Graahk? Because with Graahk, you can get over 6k nats per hour. My best has been 6,832 natures in an hour. :D
