I don't have High Alch yet, unfortunately. And thank you, I know not to waste endless hours trying to sell something that won't ever sell.
I'll try the flax method. A curse be on my and my lack of patience. :(
-
That's not the question. The question is, will I even get it to sell?

In my quest to obtain full mystic, I decided to take a break and do some maging in Castlewars. One of the other players noticed I had on mystic boots and mystic bottoms, but nothing else. She asked, and I told her the sad truth: I had no money to pay for full mystic.
So, she gives me an adamant plate (t) and red dragonhide vambraces. My question is, will I be able to sell these, and get enough cash to pay for the rest of these? Or did I get something I will never be able to sell?

The computer no longer BSODs. Now it hardlocks rather soon after turning on the computer.
Trying Windows Update only resulted in an error code that isn't listed on their website at all. This is the computer I bought.
I should have just spent the extra $200 and bought This instead, and installed Vista or XP or whatever.

It's force of habit. I make a point of not looking like some 13 year old when I type. I'm also a writer, so I try to use proper grammar.
Mourning's end has a lot of quest requirements that I'm simply not ready to do yet. I haven't finished Underground Pass, for instancve, and it doesn't look like I will anytime soon.

What I need is a way to make money with relative speed. I have 50k on hand right now, and that was only after working myself to death to get it. As for rune "running", I have a difficult time trying to find out precisely what is meant by it. I'm not well versed in runescape's lingo.

I'm in desperate need for new gear, both caster and melee (I'm in addy armor for christ's sake). This game has been very unforgiving at giving me things I can sell, and I've had the worst of luck as well. When I discover that unids are a reliable source of cash, Jagex goes and nerfs it.
My skills are a bit low, of course. And all of the guides require a huge amount of money for an investment, which I don't have.
So, how does someone like me make some cash enough to supply runes as well as get an upgrade in equipment?
And please don't say "level ur skills u noob". I've tried that, and every time I do, I always end up with less to show for it.

...great. Just effing great.
When you are on a budget, your choices are limited. Otherwise I'd have bought a gaming computer brand new, and not have to go through all this hassle.
The computer loves to lock up while on an internet connection. The Linksys router is a USB device and required a software install. I have to wonder whether that is a source of problems.
This really pisses me off. Not only did I get screwed buying this, I was also unlucky. WoW is calling to me like a meadowlark. Runescape is fun, but it just doesn't satiate my boredom like WoW does.
By the way, I'm using a different computer to post this.
-
We ran a bunch of diagnostics on the computer, checked that power was going to where it should, fans, everything. As for checking ram, I'm not sure how one does it. The computer will lock up every so often, and freezes when we try the task manager.
Our techie isn't a pro techie. She's just someone who's built computers from scratch, worked with a bunch of computers and has had several computers do the same to her before, and she got them in working order. We just call her the techie because she knows a hell of a lot more than us.
Windows Defender, to the very end, insisted that it was out of date, despite updating it (supposedly) a total of three times.
If it is the computer, I'm going to throw a fit. Tigerdirect has been reliable to us in the past, this is like getting shot in the back from your best friend.

Recently, I bought a factory refurbished Gateway GT5426E for the purpose of having a computer to play games on (WoW specifically). However, I have a limited budget, so this is the best I could get for the price.
When I got the computer, it was rife with problems.
Conflicting drivers and a BSOD crashed my first install of TBC.
Tried to install the AC security suite that came with my computer. BSOD.
Tried to uninstall WoW, but it refused to delete the whole folder. Attempting to delete the rest of the folder resulted in a driver-related BSOD.
Windows refused to start, and had to run the restart repair utility. Tuh-riffic.
Attempted to connect to the internet using a USB linksys connection. BSOD within two minutes.
On the restart, safe mode detects no problems. Yeah, right.
Our family's techie comes over and manages to end the BSODs. she tries to install the security suite, and Vista freezes it. Second attempt: Freeze. Third attempt: Freeze. Fourth attempt: Loads the antivirus, but chokes the antispam. Finally loads it all after the next attempt.
Conflicts between Vista and AC's firewall disable my internet connection. it is two hours before we find a workaround.
Attempting to install WoW results in another Vista freeze. Vista wants to load the disc on startup. When we decline, Vista refuses to load.
The techie says, "!%*% this. I'm going to reconfigure the hard drive and load XP on here."
anyone else think that it's Vista or my computer?

First of all, these reliable sources. Do they know anything of computers? It's got nothing to do with what make the computer is. It's to do with the components inside. Trust me, someone who has built and maintained his own computers for around 6 years now, that computer is not for gaming. It's to be used for normal family based stuff, going on the web, writing up documents and making slideshows. Editing pictures etc...
BUT! If you do get the PC, install WoW and have little or no lag. You have my permission to bite my [wagon] off (with proof of course) and call me stupid 'n'stuff. :wink:
And if you seriously are considering endgame raiding, you better get a decent dedicated graphics card. Sure you can handle the lag, but can the other 9 or 24 members of your team handle it? If you go DPS it might be tolerable for you to lose some damage but if you're tanking or healing, losing aggro or healing could result in a wipe and very angry people. :P
His brother is an experienced computer technician, so I trust his take on it.
Reading through the forums, you see an awful lot of people playing WoW using computers that are not dedicated to gaming, yet still manage to play the game well. It may not be the "mega ultimate gaming computer" that has 70 fps in Aldor Rise of Shattrath, but it will get considerably better FPS than my last computer (Which was barely big enough for TBC anyways, and lag was horrid). I'm looking forward to walking through Orgrimmar with manageable FPS for once, and returning to PvP.
-
All it really means is I'm going to have some framerate lag. Which I'm used to, considering my past computers. A reliable source told me that Gateway computers are very good gaming computers. As for Shattrath, I've read on the WoW forums that lag there is pretty much going to be a given anyways. It'll just be a throwback to my early days in Stormwind.
I rarely, if ever, alt-tab out of anything. If I want to listen to music, I have a CD player handy. :D My only concern is with Ventrilo, if I plan on any sort of endgame raiding.
I'm looking forward to coming back to WoW. All of these console games I've been playing never seem to dent my incurable boredom like WoW does. :)

Hmm. I just bought myself a new computer, and I'm wondering if it's WoW-worthy.

Anyone know if this will run WoW well?

While rummaging through my inventory a while back, I had a few grimy herbs. Looking to cut down on the confusion that is the member banks, I decide to sell them. For a grand total of around 25 herbs or so, I made close to 30000. I don't recall whay herbs I had, but I had plenty of high level herbs (a lot of 45+ herbs). Was this person being generous, or is this still valid? If so, I may have just found myself a way to grind for gear that doesn't suck.

Looking him up on WoWWiki now. He hits 3.3 to 5k on tanks with simple melee damage. This doesn't take into account his Cave Ins, Hurtful Strikes, and Shatters.
Also, anyone else notice that Gruul looks like TzTok Jad?
-
What stories can be told about Gruul? I heard that at one point, he was bugged, and would hit Hurtful Stikes on pretty much anyone he wanted to. Some say he still does it.
Also, imagine this: Gruul vs the Kalphite Queen.

While mining mithril in the lumbridge swamp, I got the dragon classroom three...yes, THREE... times on the same fracking stack.
-
If you're in f2p, Edgeville dungeon is probably the best place to mine coal.
Just a little food for thought.

well the main difference between runescape and all the other MMORPGs is that runescape offers the widest range of activities for you to do...i mean for most other MMORPGs like granado espada, maple story, WOW et cetera fighting is just about the only thing u can do...okie well maybe questing (which most probably involves some sort of fighting as well tbh :-w ) so it gets pretty boring after a while. but on runescape if u get bored of combat there are a hundred and one other things u can do...not to mention all the mini games \
and the quests are pretty interesting and updated quite often :)
Hmm. And yet, the tradeskills in Runescape tend to become incredibly tedious over time.
World of Warcraft also has a variety of things you can do, and yes, there are mini games. (Darkmoon Faire, the Chess event in Karazhan) The fighting's not boring at all, especially when you go dungeon crawling. What gets boring is (As in Runescape) trade skills, and (Not in Runescape) reputation grinds.

As an interim until I buy a new computer, then it's back to getting owned by Gruul and Kael'thas in World of Warcraft. Yes, they can completely own you. The thing is, they look good owning you, and you look good getting owned. >.>

Ignore this post. I misunderstood his message.

Magic.
Having to use runes really ticks me off. And then, having to use a lot of, often expensive, runes.
-
:shock: Thats alot of runes!
True, but the rune system of magic in Runescape bugs the crap out of me. I'd be much higher in magic levels (43 current) if I didn't have to worry about the ridiculous runes.
