I believe, based on what I understood from the knowledge base, that the concept is for you to complete all floors before resetting the prestige-o-meter. When you do the floor twice in a prestige-reset interval, your prestige doesn't add up to the total exp earned. The idea behind it is to "prevent grinding", and that the first floors would still give fair amount of exp.

Probably rendered by an outside tool. As for getting the game's graphics in par with reality, supposedly they could apply ridiculous amounts of eye-pecking effects, but the low poly count is there to stay - the CPU is still doing most of the drawing. I suppose most people noticed that the once-mighty Core 2 Dou processors are now having trouble keeping up with some scenes (outside the Daemonheim castle for example). Until that's changed, a major graphcal breakthrough is unlikely.

No biggie. It's not that http://runescape.com was any security threat, and if you go to fishy websites you're at risk regardless of Java.

You have some flippin good times. http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/dungeoneering

Sigil drops from the corporeal beast seem to be much rarer than stuff in the GWD based on my experience, if you're after drop splits. It's also a hell lot slower. SGWD it is.

It's a dragon square shield with a humongous crush defence bonus, and few extra defence points in the rest of its stats. Unless you're killing giants, I can't see how it's going to help you. You might say it justifies its price due to the prayer bonus, but if you're going to pray while fighting, you might as well take a Prayer book. I s'pose it's going down in price because the corporeal beast is going up in popularity, and holy elixirs (which are used to bless the shield) are not an uncommon drop.

Standard stuff for shooting fire spells. The only difference is that you need to bring prayer potions (around 8-9 potions per 100 worms, at your level) and preferably wear a fire cape. Pray against magic and stand close to a wall or a pillar when fighting these. If you have a hexcrest, in any of it's forms, and a fire cape, the hits will be too ridiculously high to justify melee - max I've managed is 978 with a Fire Surge, at 106 Magic (a Wolpertinger would help you there). For melee, a common setup seems to be wearing prayer-boosting gear, praying against melee, and setting up a cannon to help you kill these. It shoots 4 cannonballs each rotation, which is pretty decent.

You first open a clan chat: http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/controls_clan_chat Then activate Lootshare: http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/controls_lootshare And Christ, he's just a young kid looking for some help. Why do you guys have to be such [wagon] holes? More importantly, what makes you think you are, or were (at his age), more superior?

I'm replying to the first post directly to provide a more down-to-earth answer. Firstly, yes, you will be fine. It won't be easy, you won't get many kills, and you won't be able to play on a Lootshare world for the reasons mentioned earlier. It will be a flippin' good time though, regardless of levels, which I believe that as far as they are, or above, the minimum required, is enough. As for the gear, I recommend some magic-resistant torso and the rest to shield you from ranged and melee. There won't be a need for special items, since there's only three of you, and your damage rate and survival ability is a lot less substantial than your friends' (no offense) at the levels you mentioned - hence making one of them a dedicated tank will slow your killing speed a lot. S'matter of fact, you being the tank might actually be the best thing to do. In relation to possible loot, you and your friends will have to come up with a way to share stuff, since the highest hitter, the one with 99 Attack probably, gets the prize. Looking at your levels at the moment, I recommend just enjoying the game instead of chasing the GWD, or alternatively try more manageable boss monsters, such as the King Black Dragon. That's up to you anyhow.

Well written. But the one important thing you didn't address is addictiveness, which is a psychological thing as well, and much like crack, once you had it, you'll be coming back for more.

Second Vision has the best composition in the game in my opinion. The sound sucks, as usual, but gotta give the composer credit. Rant:

I believe the creators of RS were informed about the method in Eve in an interview before, and replied that the game's mechanics as they are now, can't cope with such a thing. The concept's fair enough though. Bit overcomplicated for my taste, personally. I think that the trade limit in RS is doing a pretty good job.

Replace at least the unholy book for a shield and take four ranging potions - there's no reason to pot up only for Jad when there will be plenty of prayer potions left (thus unused space).

It's a fairly easy business, especially with the focus sight. Mind you, it's still slower than melee (although not by much with your levels) so you might need a bit more food than usual.

Fabulously done. Free exp - what more can you ask for (ask, not whine)?

A well phrased argument. I reckon you should post this suggestion over at the RSOF.

A guide with some statistics: http://forum.tip.it/topic/194382-andylax38s-9-lob-burstingbarraging-guide/

There's a one and only reason that everybody wants Bandos armour, and it's because of the Strength bonus. Both the miniscule Prayer and increased Ranged defence bonuses are negligible in most cases, and at most definitely don't justify the 45m or so spent on the set. Buying it because it doesn't degrade is just nonsense, since you can always buy dragon armour, which has even slightly better stats (except for the Ranged defence).

Except for whiny brats. Yep, be this topic an example. Still, the article isn't clear enough in explaining whether the 'rare drop table [...] shared between a variety of NPCs' is the only rare table, and if not, whether the ring of wealth affects the others. I shall remain hopeful!

Just the one you're attacking, seeing as the animation shoots only at a single target.

Blessed spirit shield? For what? You don't need to spend gazillion millions to shoot some fireballs at Abyssal demons. Wear a full mage set that you already have, wield a shield and a helm, and use a Bunyip!

Nope. Sharks is enough. You don't have to inform anyone you're teleporting either.

It only affect your and your enemy's accuracy (displays as -x% in the prayer stats menu for your opponent). Doesn't do anything to either one's levels.

You do get the extra Slayer experience, but not the Attack bonus.

I've done about 30 quests in the last month, from bottom up the difficulty level and was too disappointed by Within the Light. Collect stuff, run a bit, solve a puzzle, and you're done. And to top it off, have no rewards. Not an excuse for a Master quest in my opinion, and indeed very little new content (info mainly) for one.
