Can't you disable potions in Clan Wars? I wish people would stop talking about 120 in all skills. It's a stupid idea that adds nothing to the game and will never happen.

The Inferno Adze is an excellent tool for training woodcutting and firemaking By Ignatius Vulcan, Firemaking Master I'm here to introduce you to the Inferno Adze, a powerful tool that allows you to train both woodcutting and firemaking simultaneously. The inferno adze can chop down trees like any normal axe, but because of its magical properties, roughly 30% of the logs you cut will instantly be incinerated, granting you firemaking experience and freeing a space in your inventory to reduce the hassle of banking! Because the inferno adze cuts at the same speed as a dragon hatchet, it's very easy to get fast experience in woodcutting while training your firemaking as well. Additionally, the inferno adze can double as a pickaxe if, for example, you happen across a shooting star, or feel a sudden random urge to go mining. While it isn't as powerful for mining as a dragon pickaxe, it's a handy feature that's thrown in for free. Of course, you'll need a high firemaking level in order to earn the right to wield this powerful tool, but I believe it's well worth the effort of training to level 92 and completing the "All Fired Up" minigame. You'll get faster experience, train your firemaking, and save some money on a dragon hatchet. Only you can prevent forest fires By Smokey the Bear

@Racheya: Nah, it's definitely Jagex's fault. They knew what the skill needed and they decided to do something completely different. They half-assed it. This is half an update. It's an update meant to compleent another update that doesn't exist. @Logdotzip: Cool story bro. @sees_all1: Good PSA, but what's with the long drawn-out explanation of the math? You have 41 winning rolls out of 100, so your odds of winning are 41%. I don't know what's up with this 1/100 + 1/100 + 1/100 nonsense.

I've been saying for ages that Runescape doesn't have enough low-level content, but nobody seems to believe me.

How about 50/50 demon lords and razor blades? Now there's a dungeon!

I haven't been around here much lately, have I? It's probably because I'm spending more time over at TV Tropes, which is a different place that is also cool. If you've been missing my blog (which would be very sweet of you), you might be interested in some of the unrelated things I've been writing about over there that I could just as easily have posted here, but didn't. Well, I guess I am now, but you get the idea. My alliterative review of VVVVVV My review of The Count of Monte Cristo My review of Guitar Hero: World Tour My review of Portal My review of Frankenstein Uh...this thing I wrote about...stuff...well, anyway, it's untitled.

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles. But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet. This was the Captain Samuel Vimes "Boots" theory of socioeconomic unfairness. --Terry Pratchett, Men at Arms ... I was actually going to write a nice long article about efficiency using this Discworld quote as a handy metaphor, but then I decided not to because I didn't feel like it. Seemed a shame to waste a great metaphor, though, so I thought maybe you guys could use your imagination and just pretend I wrote it. I'll wait. .... Yup, see, I wrote it after all! Pretty good, huh? I enabled the new blogging feature that lets me hide text from all the people who have nasty keylogger viruses infecting their computers, so if all you saw was a big blank space, you should probably avoid logging into PayPal for a while. Bye!

Spoiler alert much? Yeesh.

Wow, what a daring prediction. Equipment that boosts max HP? Nobody could have seen that coming! It's not as if Jagex explicitly stated that the ability for them to do that was one of the primary advantages of the LP change. :roll:

So, who else expected Jagex to do something crappy like this? All this does is mess PvP up some more, and maybe save a brew dose or two on boss trips. WHOOP DE FRICKIN' DO. Yes, I am madbro. I was actually hoping they wouldn't do the "herpderp over 200" thing again... but I expected them to anyways. Um...everyone? Seeing as, y'know, that's what they explicitly stated they were doing and all.

I see no flaming or personal insults. He is expressing his dislike of the article (which is permitted) in a calm and constructive fashion. I think bladewing was being ironic.

Leela is that woman in Draynor from Prince Ali Rescue.

You can definitely turn it off. I was just there and no smoke effect. In fact, I'm not actually sure how to turn it on.

I disagree (to an extent) Runescape originally had the popularity to create fan-sites, but in a hypothetical world in which they hadn't been made, would Runescape have achieved the longevity which it has? No, because if it had, people would have made fansites for it, and since there are no fansites, it obviously didn't.

No, because people would make them. You have cause and effect mixed up. Runescape isn't popular because of its fansites. It has fansites because it's popular.

It's exactly the same as for all other trapping, click once/twice under the trap you want to go to next as you are finishing setting up a current trap. Thanks, I never really got into hunter so I don't really know the basic tricks. It's juts a timing thing, clicking to run somewhere before the animation for laying the trap is finished, will prevent it from forcing you to walk that one square, and it still gets laid. :) Yup, gotta learn that timing, right? :shades:

"Choice" wastes time making a long list of every single piece of content in the game that lets you choose something while I'm sitting here waiting for the author to get to the point. That kind of pointless padding is not the sort of thing I want to see in a good article.

Nah that's not needed. We talked about this in the crashing thread. Nobody has an inherent ownership or right to the spot just because they got there first; it's the responsibility of both parties to choose whether to compete or not. If someone else comes along and wants to fight, you either accept the challenge and try to fight, or you hop. If you go to a world and someone's there already, you either hop or you challenge them. Sure, you can ask nicely for them to hop, but politeness-wise it's not really different from asking them nicely to give you a free 10k (or if you're the one hopping to be nice, from offering to give them a free 10k). There's no obligation, and there's no breach of etiquette if you decline. Eh, it's still the polite thing to do; if your doing something where hopping can easily find you an empty world, that's the polite thing to do. Depends on what your doing.... rune rocks, Bandos GW.... definitely crash. Vs doing some skilling where you can easily hop to find an empty world.... Can't think of any examples though. Some mining definitely.... I mean, not saying you HAVE to be polite, plus (say it's something mining related) you have 10 mining levels on the guy and a dragon pickaxe vs his rune one.... Maybe you crash him because you can. Mostly my point is that if there are any conventions of courtesy that should apply to this situation, none of them are contingent on who was there first. The one who should politely bow out, if anyone, is whoever has the lower mining level or, alternately, whoever places the highest value on having the spot to himself.

Oh [bleep] no. :ohnoes:

It would need one hell of an adjustment for f2p to make maging acceptable in solo combat, wouldn't it? o_O Considering that f2p will experience the least of these damage-soaking updates by comparison : x Well I meant that rune would have no magic damage soak, a little melee soak and lots of ranged soak. Not balancing, just enforcing. This will revolutionize F2P warring. Previously, the ranged unit was a clan's main KO power in PKRIs, since mages are expected to be primarily focusing on binding over blasting and rangers can attack faster too. But with rune inevitably having some degree of damage soaking, this will make it where rangers can't really do much against people in rune. It will have literally no effect on F2P rangers. Ranged doesn't hit over 200 in F2P.

Nothing wrong with an Infinity Minus One Sword. the last time you linked me to tv tropes, i spent the better part of a week there. I used to be addicted but you got me re-hooked... DAMN YOU TROACCTID!!! Once the update comes out, I'll get to send you off to Dual Wielding too! Muhahahaha :twisted:

Hmm, good question. This calls for a scientific experiment. Quick, somebody fetch a bucket of tomatoes, a set of dinner utensils, and a mime!

No it isn't. There's nothing wrong with being a joke item. Okay, fine, graphical, sure.
