Oathkeeper

Glad to see that jagex has primed the defibrillators. However, it's a bit co-incidental that BTS and this are re-released around the same time... maybe some more monthly ones are due in the future (or even 'coming weeks' means this June. Or maybe not). It's a shame to see the time invested into Pirate Empires go, but good to see unique content coming soon.

It's a bit late, and probably old news by now, but anyway... I can see how you, and others, have interpreted it, and I know that it's been solved by the main page. However, the way I saw it was that ancient effergies are available through combat, similar to clue scrolls, of high combat-level monsters (to which Jagex gave no definition [could be 50+ or 200+]). After this several (or maybe one) skills in the 90's are needed to get the EXP reward after restoration. Otherwise, with the Castlewars update planned for this BTS and being braught forward, I think it's somewhat safe to assume the scedule of 4 update week months again :smile:. To be honest, I personally believe that the period where there was no BTS was an excuse to have no-update weeks to work on future content so that it would be possible to have several updates ready to impliment at any time, and if one has to be postponed then they can just whip out another in it's place.

You know... I actually think their using it as a segway to transistion back to the normal Runescape backdrop.

This.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8j1P2MqbdaA My first test run for Recording Runescape, still a learning experience :rolleyes: . Anyway, thought I might post this, this is how I go about the icefiend, if recieved well I may try doing others. As for which bosses I find most annoying: Shadow-forger - Even without lag, and bringing in loads of food I've still yet to be able to beat this boss without a death. I just don't know how to avoid the green acid stuff. Sagittare - Always have to backtrack to bring in 15 short fins for him, for some reason he always get's me near death. Protecting mage and fire wave/melee. Seeing as the boss difficuly increases somewhat exponentially every floor I don't want to see how hard the Warped and Chaotic ones are :ohnoes:

i know they said that, but im not believing it for one bit, sir. Me neither. Just because they say so, doesn't mean it is true. Also, they're developing that game since 2006 with zero income and alot of expenses. Generous investors... While this is true the problem lies with the oppertunity cost of hiring the Steller Dawn team. It still costs the Jagex company as a whole to have a seperate development team working on the seperate game, whereas if those that are working on it wern't then there would be more people in the RS development team to work on the Runescape Projects.

I've personally Binded a Spinebeam Longbow, Fractite 2h, and 125 Fractite Arrows. 80% of the time there seems to be Deaths, Airs and Ess on the table, which for small dungeons I pick up and make fire runes. Otherwise I use the coins droped from the first room and make around 50 casts. I use the ranged for enemies weak to stab, Fire Blast on plated enemies and 2h for everything else. However that's because I refuse to train Attack and Strength and therefore I am limited to a single attack style with any weapon.

Canada = USA Actually, Canada is part of the International Stars team, which is made up of every other English speaking country that isn't specifically listed. However, this means that most of us in the International Stars team will be segregated majorly by timezones, Hardly any of us "ANZACs" will be able to fight alongside our Canadian allies unless Jagex makes the timezones decent for both of us, but that would leave our competitors at the bad times (like 6.00 am Sunday morning *wink*)

(PROTIP: When the slow flying rocks start coming towards you move atleast two squares away from where you were standing. 0 Damage.) To the above poster: That sound like a very bad glitch, hoping to see it fixed soon.

The guy is named Stiles and can be found just south of the Volcano. Please tell me this is to play off of Miles, Niles, and Jiles :P I do hope Jiles was one of them :P Giles, and yes, it is. When you talk to him he goes on about why he sits there and says the the 'golden days' are gone and he was inspired by the three brothers that stood outside draynor bank.

20 levels?! Never saw that when I skimmed the newspost. Man, I can't even get past the first ten. Oh well, practice makes perfect and so on. It's nice to have a singleplayer game again, something that is a 'work lunchbreak' game. Admitadly I suck really bad at it, but hey, an updates an update.

The first is due to the fact the you only unlock a new floor if two conditions apply: You have the level neccessary to access the next floor. You have just completed the floor above the new floor. The second I believe is because how Jagex intended to release the new skill. Even some Jagex mods say that to unlock a floor requires: D'eering Level = Floor x2, however it is actually (Floor x2) -1 [as floor 1 would have required lvl 2] as you can see the bosses are leaked a level too early, because they unlock at a certain floor rather than level. Probably a typo.

*Cough* Anyway, i find Skeletal Horde the most annoying when not solo/duo, managed to die ten times. One time i was OHKO'd after entering the room and blasted by 6 lvl 136 mages. Soloing Stomp is the worst so far due to complaints listed above, however I still have 4 bosses to encounter. For the icefeind you have to be moving (not sure if it is running or if walking will suffice) so that the spec won't hit you, however the special attack will never kill you, only leave you on low health. Although if you're in a team then others ice can hit you can leave you vunriable to the rest of your attacks, so make sure your running in circles away from each other. And finally I bind a Fracite Rapier and Spinebeam Longbow along with 125 Fracitite arrows, however before it was just the Rapier and the arraows and I would hope for a bow from the table. and Greenmelf, while I don't share your pain I hope that jagex gets their head out of their [cabbage] and fixes the legit high level free to play exp problem.

We definately should get a redeem code as members! Not to be offensive but I find it ironic now that members are the ones complaining about the "we pay, we play" mindset. OT: Can't wait to get home to buy it.

Are you getting 0 for your prestige experience? If so try and reset your progress in the ring interface and do the floors that don't have ticks next to them (you can see which floors have ticks by pressing the change button next to the floor part in the ring interface). If this isn't the case then i'm not too sure, but i'm not experiencing a -50%XP, but i'm only 96, so maybe it's 100+'s?

Yes, and you get bonus exp for killing them all. Really? I usually just run through and only kill the ones I need to for guardian doors....guess I should start doing that now. What is the 'Level Mod' and how does it determine the % multiplier that I get? Sometimes I get -12% and sometimes I get +5%, I'm confused. The level Mod is the amount of monsters you left behind, I can only get a maxmium of +10, but it goes to -25

I had an alter in one of my dungeons. This is still good advice though. I will confirm the occasional prayer altars. However, they look nothing like any prayer altars you have seen before and it's easy to miss them. Also they will only restore a certain amount of prayer points. Equal to your prayer level i think. Yes, however sometimes it's double your max level, so in other words you can only use each alter once (or twice) from 0 prayer depending on which one you stumble upon.

Your xp is only based on the floor, the prestige, and those other modifiers you see at the end. You can leave every monster minus the boss and gain the same xp. So don't feel the need to waste your time killing all monsters. According to the knowledge base your statement is wrong. It says that the level mod modifier is calculated by doing something to your total level and combat level and then subtracting from the % bonus up to a max of -25% This can be found :here, but you'll have to scroll down a tiny bit. (second last paragraph of that section)

Playing with a team is definately benificial, it lets others pick up on your weak points, and you can assist them in their faults. Prestiging is also useful for when you can't access higher level floors. It makes all the floors you've currently completed act like it's the first time you've done them, but keeping the higher XP rates of the deeper floors. So for example if you complete the first 4 floors and prestige then the next time you do floor 1 (and only the first time for that prestige) the XP you recieve will be higher as you will be averaging floor 1's floor XP and Floor 4's prestige XP for the calculations. By around Floors 15 i'm getting well over 200 tokens per run, and it seems to be getting larger too (maybe i'll be hitting that ftp XP cap soon.)

The increase in rate refers to the fact that you will have a higher chance of getting the ore every third swing (you can only get an ore from a rock on the third swing in the animation). It's less about a decrease in time and more about increasing the probability you'll get the ore. Practically on the money, it increases the percentage of recieving an ore for every game click, in other words it gives you a bigger chance of getting the ore every 0.6 seconds.

I've personally been using the lumbridge swamp mine and saving up all the adamantite, mithril and coal in my bank. Then buying lots of natures and taking a fire staff down there and using the coal spawns to smith addy bars, grabbing the addy ore when it spawns. It reduces the time wasted on bank runs by lots and gets you precious smithing exp. This can also be done with mith and steel if you only have low smithing.

Actually, just rush out food and hire all 15 workers ASAP, and you can complete it under 10 turns. 14, rather than 15. Every Fifth worker requires an extra pay, and yet only generates one peice of work. So 14 cost 2 per turn whereas 15 cost 3 per turn. However you keep the two resources if you don't make the 15th. If you're going for the lowest score however, 15 is best.
