I try to find a training method that gives both reasonable XP and lots of profit. In this case, I fish Raw Lobsters, which give me 2.5k XP/25, and when I get 100 that is roughly 10k XP, and then I sell my Lobsters for 24k on the Grand Exchange, and repeat, simple as that.

My best newbie memory is when I got a mithril scimitar and shield for free by a level 70. I could hit 7's with it, unpotted. :D

Karamja. It's so peaceful there.

Until I have a guide to help, I think. :

I am definitely going there! :D

Nope, you have melee pures, that use all the melee stats (Defense, Strength, Attack).

:roll: Your friend is a melee pure. That's all.

I've created a fake addy pure which is also my main. I wear full adamant and have high str, making people think I'm a pure when I'm staking and dueling. However, I have 61 defence while they have 1 defence, and I have 71 strength, plus potted+prayer=83+ strength, and I have 63 attack. Is that a good idea to fake out pures, considering I'll have a 61x higher def lvl then they do and a high strength and attack level, as well?

It has nothing to do with the chests. It has to do with Jagex's price controls. actually he was refering to the chests I know, but the method by which you transfer wealth has nothing to do with the chests. Then you could've replied to a reply that was more on-topic to that.

I was torn up today, trying to decide which money-making methods would be a great money maker and also give great XP. So I decided at first, why not try mining? It did help me get my Full Rune, after all. I can use the coal rocks in Barbarian Village to mine my coal. I have 53 mining, so I can mine coal, and it's a decent money maker if you sell 100-1000 of them on the GE. The Coal mining spot is near Varrock Bank, and it's you waste virtually no time if you run to the bank and back. However, the coal rocks take time to respawn, and they rocks are sometimes crowded by people with 60+ mining and rune picks. I believe I made maybe 25k/hr mining coal, if the rocks weren't crowded, on a good day. Then there's Fishing. If you have 40+ fishing, fishing lobsters with a Lobster Pot is a decent way to make money as well. You go to Karamja with a Lobster pot, and you start fishing raw lobsters. Amazingly enough, raw lobsters are worth more than cooked lobsters on the Grand Exchange, and even more so, people actually buy the Raw Lobsters relatively quick, provided you sell them in big amounts (100+). Getting 100 lobsters to sell on the GE gets you roughly 24k/hr, which is more than enough to get what I need and then some, if any. And when you're fishing for lobsters, the fishing spots don't necessarily "respawn", and when you level up in fishing, your character still keeps on fishing, whereas in mining, you level up, and your character stops mining, and someone else may get your ore. However, though, if you're F2P, there is only one Lobster Fishing spot-in Karamja- and you have to pay 30gp to get to Karamja, and another 30gp to get back, whereas mining there's plenty of iron and coal mining spots. Ok, so you have around 6k worth of lobsters in your inventory, so you only lose 60gp each time, and when you fish 100, its only 240gp, and 2.4k/1000. Not much of a loss, indeed, but it does get on some people's nerves. And not to mention there's no bank on Karamja, so you have to walk back to Draynor Bank to bank your lobsters, and pay another 60gp total for a round trip. -.- I found I level faster when I fish then when I mine. It took me less then a week to get from 15 to 40 fishing. Maybe 3-4 days, tops. Now my fishing is 50. :D Whereas mining, it takes so looong to get to 60 and my mining is 53. :( I think there are more pros in Lobster fishing then Coal Mining, but in General, these two major money making methods are neck and neck. But what do you think is the best money making method of these two, mining or fishing? Feel free to list the pros and cons of either of them or both of them here, and if you wish, share some mining/fishing money making tips too! :D

These guys can obliterate F2P in one second. The Revenants can ice barrage you, tele-block you, use protect prayers, team on you, rot your food,drain your prayer, keep hitting 20+ constantly on you, heal from 10%hp to 100%hp in one "bite", and cure themselves from poison, and not only that, they use all the protect prayers and all the attack styles, they can recharge their prayer at an altar, they can attack from a range far beyond that of long-range distance when ranging, teleport you when you're 1 square away from them, and they can chase you all the way through the wilderness and walk through doors and walls. For F2P, that's GOD power, not even the highest level F2P player can defeat a Revenant considering they can't use Tele-Block or Ice Barrage. And not to mention with A Wind Blast like attack they can hit 25, range, 25, and melee 30+. -.-

How do you know all this?

i got some stuff that can make you see rainbows get with me :twisted: Is it called crack?

BH and CW do not replace wildy. :(

Great idea! I am going to send this URL to Jagex through CS and hope they consider it. I'll tell you what they reply with. :D :mrgreen:

He thought it out clearly. The problem is, it would still be possible to drop things like whips and dragon items. Even if they're not what the customer asked for, they can still work out a system. The seller sells some rs gold for a whip or d item. he goes to the wild. his customer kills him. the customer gets the loot, and leaves. sells his items, gets his cash. will take a bit more time with the selling and buying, but where there's a will there's a way. It would open a window for the RWT business, they're not gonna sit there and examine it. they'll take advantage. They'll make it so "obvious" RWT will not be possible. A Revenant can appear between the seller and customer and kill them both, upon which both of them are banned upon death, and the Revenant tele-grabs all the items and dissapears. :twisted:

He thought it out clearly.

NO, you wouldn't be able to bring items worth more than 3k into the wild. READ his post.

I don't know why Jagex couldn't have implemented this before. :D

Wow, including your own mom? You must be emo. Kidding.

I was near the graveyard where the zombies are and I see a mage attack hitting my guy with a 19. I know zombies can't hit that hard. Then 2 more cape and it was an 18 and a 17, so I know it was a renevant. Then I tried to run and teleport but of course the renavent TBed me. I didn't even see the damn renavent. Luckily, I kept my r2h, scimmy and addy plateboddy when I died and I only had 2 lobs on me so I really didn't lose much. :lol:

+1. =D> Simply put, you need to take a break from complaining about all of Jagex's crappy updates and RuneScape, take a big deep breath, step away from the computer, and go outside, and then exhale, and do something constructive, instead of trying to get a weak point across in a way that makes your point weaker and pointless. All in all, basically, your post is basically spam and you need to get a life. :lol:

We're talking about the ingame economy, not the choice or real-life implications of playing. Chris is correct. Many players quit because they didn't like the staking updates Jagex did in an effort to rid RWT. If Jagex loses paying members, they're losing a potential $5. If 100 people leave because of that update, it's at least $500, and so on. It's Jagex's fault, not the players. that they are leaving because of Jagex's fruitless updates. The economy will be effected in this way, because many people depended on stakers for certain goods and commodities, and because a good amount of stakers left, the demand for those goods have gone down, driving the price down, and this creates a ripple effect, affecting all of the goods end products and whatnot. Consider diamond bolts, which went down in price after stakers left the game, which affected the price of ores and gems, which also effected the F2P economy.

I agree with banning Chinese and Korean ranges from RS, but some people in North America can set up gold selling companies and still continue their work. I am pretty sure there are a couple of gold selling sites or so that are North American based. Considering how easy it is to change an IP address and your e-mail, this probably won't work. Most people with basic knowledge of computers could do a google search on how to change your IP, so they could theoretically get past the 2 accounts per IP a day limit, and considering how these companies are HUGE, and have lots of computers in their sweatshops, if they get IP banned, they probably use separate and not domain IP's, so basically just 1 IP per computer in that instance. I don't know what a CAPTCHA is, please Elaborate on that.... I agree with RWT being impossible on the exchange, so I am not going to worry about that point. I am going to research on the gravestone idea and come back for you on that. Overall though, I agree that most of your points may be effective in holding back bots and are valid and perhaps easy to implement, considering Jagex's coding experience and whatnot. :)

Be nice.
