Maybe in Tips & Tricks...there's already a mention about the furnace if you've completed Ghosts Ahoy...not a bad suggestion, but I might move all those mentions down into Tips & Tricks.

You'll have to look more closely at his original post. It's only bankable if you die...even then, it doesn't stay after log out.

Wow, do I dislike "Stealing Creation" a ton. I'm just cursed with being on teams that stack up against people who get the mages stationed around the area, freezing players making runs toward the kilns, then warriors come to finish us off. 20 minutes for less than 10 points is terrible. That means close to an hour for one stinking fletching knife. I bought one to morph into a fletching knife. I started out at level 67 with 582,012 experience. 1159 yew logs to start, too. 27 yew shortbows (unstrung) used up 5% of the charge and left me with 585,687 experience. 27 more used up, not surprisingly, 5% more of the charge and 589,302 experience. I kept this up until I got close to levelling up to level 68 and stopped with 135 unstrung yew shortbows in the bank. I had 76% of the charge left and started stringing. It took 72 of them to get to 605,097 experience and level 68. I went ahead and cast high alchemy to free up the bank space. 34,560 gold for 72 clicks of the mouse. I got started again. 63 unstrung shortbows remained in my bank. After the first load of yews got cut, I had 90 and 608,742 experience, 71% of the charge left in the tool, and 997 yew logs in the bank. 27 more, 612,387 experience, 66% left. 616,032 experience after another 27 and still 62% of the charge left. 619,677 experience, 57% of the charge. 623,322 experience, 52% charge left. With 225 unstrung yew shortbows in the bank and 47% of the charge remaining I had 626,967 experience. 43% of the charge, 630,612 experience. 38% of the charge, 27 more in the bank, 634,257 experience. 33% of the charge, 27 more, 637,902 experience with 30,149 experience to level 69. If I had to guess, I think it would take me another proto-tool to get to level 70 and just to estimate, at least 15 more to level 80. I'll also have to fletch thousands of yews and then magic logs. It looks like I've got a lot more cutting to do! Okay, back to fletching. 333 unstrung yew shortbows in the bank. 28% of the charge in the tool remaining. 641,547 experience in the skill. 645,192 experience, and 24% of the charge. 27 more shortbows cut got me down to 19% charge, 648,837 experience, and 700 yew logs left in the bank. 652,482 experience, 14% charge left. 656,127 experience, 9% charge left which means maybe one and one half to two loads. Another 27 shortbows cut leaves me with 5% charge and 659,772 experience. The next load was the last full one. 495 unstrung yew shortbows in the bank after stringing and high alchemizing 72 in the middle of the cutting. 592 yew logs in the bank and the tool says that it has almost run out of charges. Three more are able to be cut before it crumbles into dust, leaving me without a proto-tool, 663,764 experience (just 4,287 experience to level 69). 498 unstrung yew shortbows in the bank (plus 72 more would have been 570). I could stop now and cut more, but I want all the experience I can get and fortunately, I have plenty of string to string the bows. 64 of them strung gets me to level 69 in Fletching. I can fletch runite bolts and yew AND runite crossbows...why? Couldn't they shove one of those into a different level? 68 or rune crossbows at level 71 or something? I digress... Stringing the rest left me with 697,379 experience and 40,248 left to level 70 and yew longbows. High alchemy left me with a nice sum of cash. [hide=...495...496...497...][/hide] 239,040 gold pieces. Totals? You want totals? 115,367 experience for cutting and stringing 570 yew shortbows with a morphic fletching knife, high alchemized for 273,600 gold. Not bad, but not fun.

I killed a Mithril Dragon today! Actually, I killed three in one trip. None of the beasts dropped Chewed bones, but just one was enough to take care of the last Hard task in the Fremennik Achievement Diary. [hide=Fremennik Diary Complete!][/hide] I did manage some good rune weapon drops, enough to give me a return on my potion investments. It was scary. I didn't even dare try taking a snapshot of my first kill. Now that I've "bagged" the Mithril Dragon, I am not as fearful of the Ancient Caverns. That's a good thing, since my 100th Slayer task happens to be Waterfiends...136 of them. I expect a couple more levels here and there this week. I fished for enough monkfish to get me a level closer to being able to fish for sharks with a harpoon and then made some admiral pie in order to cross another Seer's Village Achievement Diary task of my list. Cooking them might take some more level boosting, not to mention fletching all the way to magic longbows for the final task from the diary.

That's some heavy mud!

I believe I saw an old post about it from a crew member where they spoke of leaving it that way on purpose... I think it was a decision they made very early into the release of WGS. Perhaps a crew member remembers the exact wording and reasoning?

I think changing it might be a bad idea, for really only one reason. Having enough arrows is the whole point. Not everyone is going to use an accumulator or have access to it. Not only that, but the effect that the accumulator has on arrows is random. A player could end up being the one person to have most of their 10 arrows unreturned. 30 minutes? I think I gathered near 50 arrows in that time (and that could be MY luck), so having people gather enough is really the whole point. I think of it like a speed limit. If they say just gather 15, someone will try it with less. Same as with the current "speed limit" of arrows...people will try it with less, but try it with not enough and you're in trouble!

Everything succeeded (some barely), except for the last one, the level 99 backflip. It appears they like twirls and juggling tuna (the tuna, I would guess because it's a fishing village). I usually go to Magic next, but went to Ranged. No suggestions from the gallery. I started with full ringmaster, but after the first emote, I forgot to re-equip the megaphonus between events, so I just kept whatever weapon was equipped for emotes. I succeed on all (some barely), except for the 99 throwing axe at the target. I went to Magic next this trip. No suggestions from the gallery. I re-equipped the megaphonus before starting and left it on the entire event. I made a mistake and did two 40 level events and lost the experience, but succeeded on every event (some barely).

I started the quest, but not up to that point. I haven't finished looking for the key. I would guess (totally a guess, by the way) that once you can fight the zombies, you can't light the beacons. I've only begun steps 2 and 3, then stopped. Usually I go farther in quests I'm saving, but I got lucky on this one, I suppose.

WOW...tremendous suggestion (IMO). I did start the quest, but didn't get all the way to Armoured zombie fighting. It's good to know (because I sometimes train with the beacons). I would say "+1" to adding this...somewhere. Maybe to the Beacons guide, too?

I know I could count, but if I haven't counted from the beginning, it would be tough to see where exactly those delineations exist (only that there is a gap of 100 or 400 or whatever), not to mention, killing with a cannon might be tough. The KB is sometimes off for some reason, which is why I think the crew likes people like us to test. I couldn't tell you where their KB is wrong, but I know they have been. I do have the feeling that Tip.It's guide is off, but that's now...when it was released, things could have been different. Jagex does make changes that sometimes don't make their update stickies, which is why Tip.It has a "hidden updates" sticky, I believe. Don't quote me on that, though! EDIT: Here's the link to the KB of which you wrote... http://www.runescape.com/kbase/viewarticle.ws?article_id=2146

The dash was missing, but that's not all... [hide=crates, not boxes/clue text correction][/hide]

I, too, have seen that the Wanted! guide appears different from other sources on the 'net. I am currently a 'peon' ranked player, but I would like to get a full set of White Armor soon. If I buy a cannon and advance some levels, I might be able to take notes (although I'm not sure you can check to see exactly how many kills you have at any point...just your "rank" or exact number of black knights killed?)

Tears of Guthix trips haven't been especially fantastic over the past month. That is, until this weekend's foray into the cave... [hide=Tears of Guthix trip!][/hide] Penguin Hide & Seek points went toward a mixture of Construction and Runecrafting. I finished off my Circus wardrobe and earned some good experience in Magic and Ranging performances. I finished a few Treasure Trails clues... [hide=Treasure Trail Rewards][/hide] The number of clues I've been seeing is actually something of a nuisance. Not necessarily following them, but the terrible value for time spent is affecting my desire to play the game, not just follow the clues. As I've probably mentioned before, I can't bring myself to drop or ignore even one! I've been getting plenty of scrolls dropped during Slayer tasks. I finally finished my 99th task and have yet to decide what I'm going to do about my 100th...Waterfiends...a lot of them, too. I almost forgot...while on my 98th task (Dust Devils), I reached 104 Combat and a Total Level of 1700. I may put off training melee and Slayer for a little while and do some real level grinding now that I'm close to an even "pause" point at 100 tasks. There aren't any real benefits to continuing at the moment. I still haven't received a high level drop (lava battlestaves are the best I've done, I think). I did cross off a couple more Achievement Diary tasks, but only ones that I could either "buy" my way to finishing or "boost" toward. As it so happens, it was with the same item, a Wild Pie. I couldn't really say what I expect to do next, but I would guess it would have to do with a quest or unlocking something new. I might even try a minigame. I'm not terribly interested in playing at the moment. We'll see if something happens to change that in the week to come (maybe something new from Jagex?).

I wasn't making an accusation. I was just asking, but again, I think the crew is looking for rapid attack style only, not accurate. I am almost sure they'd be interested in hearing about the formula. I can't speak for anyone, but the reporting of data is useful, especially when it goes with a formula...

I think the crew is looking for rapid attack exact numbers for a calculator, without prayer boosts or potions or range strength boosting gear like Void gear. If you took all the information yourself, I would feel horrible, since that seems like a lot of research (that wouldn't be able to be used), but IT LOOKS like you've extrapolated or copied the data from somewhere else?

I guess, but it's not really any different than planting anything else. Maybe a note like that would be advised, but I don't think adding plant cures is necessarily the only way to point it out. Perhaps something that points out that the planting of those plants is like planting anything else and those may get diseased so take normal farming precautions. Then again, since you can't pray for protection, those things are in a sense, herbs or flowers...so it's normal flower farming precautions. I don't know...maybe recommended items could say something about one plant cure or something. You can always run to the guy guarding the tree patch south of that area by going through the castle to buy some if you're watching carefully...that's if it's a common thing for them to get diseased. As I mentioned, I was one of the people that didn't even know it could happen because I didn't have any get diseased. Surely there are more people out there that didn't, just like me.

This topic is closely tied to a couple of others: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=186&t=783006 http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=228&t=792021 In fact, if the RC robes are put in, the first link above was the first link posted, closely followed by a reply by me. I had suggested merging topics before, but since there were other comments in the other pages other than RC robes, I think the crew must have decided against...not sure...

Too many brackets? Maybe a link instead? [hide=Lood333's image][/hide] I like hiding things in "hide tags", but your image appears small...is that how it was sized on upload or is it just my computer playing tricks on me? (quoting this post will show you how the bulletin board code looks for each, but you've also got a friendly helpful shot of the code from a crewbie above!)

hmmm...I can't recall any of my plants getting diseased during that quest. It must just be random like regular planting...in which case normal farming suggestions would apply?

Can't it be bought on the G.E. ? Any item that can be purchased there can have it's picture taken there, right? Like this? [hide=Zuriel's Staff][/hide] Almost anything missing a picture can be checked there...if it's able to be bought there, of course.

I'm just guessing, but I think it comes down to the fact that the format of a bulletin board like this is not one that lends itself well to status updates. You'd be drastically altering what Tip.It Forums are...and I don't think that's something that everyone wants. The fact of the matter remains that there already exists a way that people can express themselves...in fact, two ways...their avatar and their signature...and I'm not even counting the fact that you can post your views in threads and even sub-forums specifically tailored for almost every topic. Both of those can be more easily "policed" for content. Since it's not mandatory that people use these sites, the mods have the right and some would say the responsibility to censor them for appropriate content. It would be a shame to see some people who are using these forums for the intended purposes 'scared' off because of people who used the technology for purposes other than what was intended. Unfortunately, society as a whole is tailored to protect against those people who would do wrong, not those who are doing right. Even now, the mods probably have to sift through hundreds of submissions for graphics in avatars or signatures and adding something that would be as easy and quick to change as a status update like in facebook or myspace would increase it exponentially. I think the mods have seen your views and considered them, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. That's my impression and of course you're free to complain to them, but I don't think making the same (or even new) arguments is going to convince them, especially since altering the code to this site might not be simple and might have unforseeable consequences. Just one gamers opinion...

BIG day...a REALLY BIG day. I started with Tears of Guthix and a below average trip that still managed to get me to level 57 Summoning. A trip to the ectofunctus with 40+ dragon bones edged me ever so close to my prayer goal. I expected Penguin Hide & Seek to put me over the brink, but it left me with less than 700 experience to go. I was about to kill a few dozen enemies for Big Bones, but while on my way from the Ardougne Zoo to a fairy ring teleport, I came across a fallen star. I decided to mine it, even though there was less than a full level left. I accepted the small rewards for less than 50 stardust and set about mining some nearby iron ore when I received a random event. I caught Molly's evil twin sister and took the experience lamp as a reward and...VOILA! Level 70 prayer! [hide=70 Prayer][/hide] I quickly set about doing the two achievement diary tasks involving that level. First, changing my family crest to Saradomin. I was pleased to find out that it didn't change my Misthalin painted Rune kiteshield. Theoretically, a person could have one of each in their bank...though I wouldn't want to waste that space. The other task needed a little combat to complete. First, I took a trip from Oo'glog to Port Tyras and bought my first Dragon halberd. It's a slow weapon, but I needed it to complete Knight Waves. I had tried this sidequest before and ended up failing. This time, by utilizing safe spots I was able to complete it, but I missed out on the fantastic dialogue from Merlin after the completion because my computer's mouse is...well, terrible. I'm not that upset, but it would have been nice to see what he had to say. Earlier this week, I suffered a tragedy in the game. My character died with a bunch of very valuable equipment because I failed to do any research on a Treasure Trail clue and ran into a Saradomin Wizard with inappropriate gear. What really upset me is that several of the items weren't unique, but just hard to get. I did make it back to my grave in time to take a few items before they disappeared (the location was in the Mort Myre Swamp), but I shouldn't have let myself die. I could easily have run, but I was close to killing the enemy and died from poison, not from a killing blow. I should have used a teleport, but I was lazy. The rewards for completing the trail weren't that great. I can't remember where I got the "fatal" clue, but I had a couple of Infernal mage tasks to complete before visiting Duradel for my current task of Scabarites. [hide=Nice loot...][/hide] [hide=Another nice benefit of this task][/hide] I'm not sure what I'll take on next, but I think Penguin Hide & Seek points will go into Runecrafting next. I think a quest is long overdue, but I'm not sure what quest to finish. Decisions, decisions!

I haven't gotten the timing down just right, but I thought I'd mention that you can bury bones when stunned, which is about one of the only things you can do until you "regain your senses" when caught.

The range is not there any more. I took a picture of this in the past and it's since been deleted from here. I'm having trouble recalling, but I think it might have been an oven instead of a range? EDIT: I found it and i know i posted it in a thread in the past [hide=Clay oven][/hide]
