small error on mud bath bonus
One of our staff members got a 9+ boost at 83 Hunter — this most likely means that this is, as a matter of fact, level-based! Thanks a lot for bringing this to our attention! If other users could test this out too and post their results here, it would be greatly appreciated. :) The data we need is: your Hunter level before jumping into the Mud Pool your Hunter level after jumping into the Mud Pool

small error on mud bath bonus
Hello, Eiji, I went ahead test this out myself, and my Hunter stat was boosted by +8 from the mud bath as it is said in the guide. However, I suspect the boost might actually be level-based. What was your Hunter level when you tried out the boost? :)

Unable to connect: Login server offline.
Yeah, everyone who suffered from the server crash has been rolled back to their last account save (last logout) methinks. I found myself in the same place with the same inventory as I was in when I logged out last night and logged in today about an hour ago.

Getting defenders with Ring of Wealth
[hide] Long story short: if you manage to hit the "rare drop" section on the first imaginary wheel of drops, RoW increases the sizes of the "rare drop" sections on the second wheel while decreasing the "no drop" sections' sizes. The RoW is a mysterious thing, but I highly doubt that it actually removes any drops. Its effect is hard to test too due to the fact that it's all based on chances - to eliminate that variable you would need a HUGE sample, and even then it would not be 100% reliable. WRONG WRONG WRONG The Ring of Wealth The ring of wealth's magical power can sometimes have an effect on the drops that you receive from defeated NPCs. To understand how it works, we first need to define some terms. 100% drop - Most creatures have what is called a '100% drop' which they will drop every time they are defeated (e.g. bones or ashes). Main drop - This will be an item drawn from an NPC's 'drop table' based upon a random 'roll' (imagine a dice roll or roulette wheel). Drop table - This is a list of all items that an NPC could possibly drop. The percentage chance of receiving each item varies depending upon the item's relative value. Secondary drop - Some creatures also have a secondary drop. So far, this only consists of charms used in Summoning. Quest drops - in some instances, an NPC will drop a quest-specific item (e.g. the unique bones required for the Rag and Bone Man or Fur 'n' Seek quests). On most NPCs' drop tables, there is a small chance that instead of receiving an item from its own drop table, you will instead get a roll again on the 'rare drop table'. The rare drop table contains some of the more exclusive items in the game, including, but not limited to, dragon items, certain rune items, shield halves, key parts and uncut gems. The rare table also contains 'empty slots' - the end result of landing on these empty slots is often referred to as receiving 'no drop' or 'bone drop'. We keep these slots empty for any future drops that we want to add to this table. The rare drop table is shared between a variety of NPCs - e.g. goblins, fire giants, most Slayer creatures. A good way to tell is that if an NPC is known to drop a half key, then it will drop other items from the rare drop table. There are, however, certain very rare drops that are not on the rare drop table, because they are specific to certain NPCs or NPC types (e.g. the draconic visage is only ever dropped by dragons; godsword pieces only by the God Wars Dungeon bosses) and it would not make sense for these items to be dropped by, say, a fire giant. The ring of wealth comes into play whenever you are rolling on the rare drop table, its ability effectively removing most of the empty slots, drastically increasing your chances of receiving an item from the rare drop table. The actual percentage increase differs between NPCs. Adventurers who make regular use of a ring of wealth should find that they receive fewer 'no drops' than adventurers who do not, and, therefore, receive more rare drops and, in the long run, gain more wealth. http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/magic_non_combat_magic Only influences things such as shield left half, half keys, gems, etc. Not specialized drops, such as whips, SOL, d boots, etc. [/hide]Please point me to the part where I implied that it increases the amount of specialized drops. Thanks for narrowing the Jagex definition of rare drop down, but my explanation was not wrong. A bit vague, at most.

Guitar Hero/Rock Band Discussion thread
I wasn't talking about plugging the instruments in to the console, but rather about the fact that consoles don't support more than four controllers at a time (at least X360 doesn't). :P If this is true, I'm one happy gamer. :)

I wonder do they have a way to be able to slip in the Keyboard as a fifth player under one of the instruments (like in vocal harmonies where you have all mics bundled under one controller)? Otherwise you're forced to drop an instrument out of the way for it if you are playing local multiplayer. :(

Thanks a ton for posting these pictures, RussetAlpha! :) Unfortunately, the pictures are a bit too unclear to use on the site. :( If you could retake a picture of these items in your bank/inventory and post it as a .png, it would be most appreciated! :) ~Juhnie

Minor typo.
Hello, daxter76, and thanks for submitting this to us! I've fixed the typo on the guide and the change should be live soon. :thumbup: You can post your future grammar- or spelling-related submissions to this sticky in the Website Updates & Corrections forum instead of having to create a whole new thread. :) Feel free to PM me or another Website Crew member if you have something on your mind regarding this matter. ~Juhnie

14-Jun-2010 - Free Player Forum Access Expanded
Nice to see that they're allowing more people to post. :thumbup: Not so nice to see that the forums are becoming a mess. No, not because of the new-access F2Pers, but by the P2Pers who complain from the dephts of their hearts how the forum will fill with spam and trolling. Déjà vu. (points at the day when Jagex first allowed F2Pers to post) :mellow:

Nomad's Requim
Hello, quantumkik! I have now gone through the points you brought up in your submission and made some of the steps clearer. You have been credited on the guide and the changes should be live soon. Thanks a lot for submitting these corrections to us! :) Apologies for the extremely late reply to your submission and thank you for your patience in this matter. Quest submissions are unfortunately really difficult to handle, because most of the Crew members have already done the quests in question, and therefore processing them can be delayed for quite long periods of time. :( Locking this thread for now if you still have anything on your mind concerning this matter, feel free to PM me or another Website Crew member. :) ~Juhnie
