  1. I find it quite insulting when people say "the only floors are s/l". 148 really isn't as bad as a lot of people make out. I key 20 minute floors the majority of the time, and I find most of the randoms I take to be compliant. Sure I'm not the fastest, ( best I've done is a 17) and sure you get some bad people ( worldbearer full of morays) but I still find it easy to enjoy my floors and be relatively efficient at the same time.

  2. Just because you didn't get Hybrid legs in all of 2 Soul Wars games doesn't mean that the gear isn't high levelled. Remember, high levelled gear isn't supposed to be easy to come by. At all. I don't see why everyone should be able to run around with all 3 sets within 24 hours of it being released.

     

    This. A thousand times.

     

    Excited for ROTM.

     

    Looks like I have no choice as to what I'm training on bxp..

  3. People need to learn how to read the BTS. The updated minigame rewards are the last thing mentioned in the BTS

     

    Perhaps you didn't notice that the Edgeville updates were not mentioned anywhere near the start of the BTS. That rule does not always apply.

     

    But yes, in this specific case, it does say finally.

     

    On topic - looking forward to improving companions, I was one of a seemingly tiny minority who enjoyed Trekking before now.

  4. Not that anyone will care, but I've decided to leave DGS. However this post is not going to rant about the clan is any way whatsoever. I only left because of a girl (odear).

     

    When I was hardcore dging with you guys, back in November/December/January I think, it was brilliant. Could not have asked for a better group of teachers. I have spent the last couple months maxing out (as Ousekeys may have noticed, as we were both miles ahead of anyone else in the clan for xp gained, but usually within 1-2m of each other. Fair play to you!). But now it's time for me to dg again. Only I have to key every floor I do for someone else :P

     

    Going to be happily keying for 2-3 randoms every floor in 148 on my way to 120.

     

    Thanks again to everyone involved with making DGS a fantastic teaching clan.

    Keep up the hard work!

  5. Also, what's some reasonable gear I can get for affordable boosts?

     

    I have Ahrim's Top/bottom, Slayer Helm, Air Battlestaff, Fire Cape, Fury, and Mystic Boots.

     

    Are there any pieces that I should absolutely have? Also, I'm kind of unsure what kind of shield I should use?

     

    What about any extra equipment or items I might need? Magic potions?

     

    Staff of Light is a must.

     

    Infinity boots are a cheap upgrade.

     

    Either God Cape or Ardy cape 3/4 (probably the ardy cape as you lack prayer bonus in mage gear).

     

    Ahrims and Slayer Helm is a good choice.

     

    If you are a dungeoneering fan, Arcane Stream necklace is very useful. If you despise dungeoneering, a Fury is next best.

     

    With regards to a shield, for monsters with a lot of HP, a surgebox is a good choice. Effectively adding another 5% damage (although it will work out to be slightly less than that because of the way the special effect works). Obviously Arcane spirit shield is a good tanking option, as it has high mage attack bonus.

     

    Edit: I forgot one very important thing.

    If you are 91+ Summoning, a Wolpertinger is a very good familiar to use. Using the spec every minute (the scrolls are cheap) will keep your magic level at +7, adding another 21% damage to all your spells.

     

    If not 91 + Summoning, but you have a nice amount of overloads to use up, those are an alternative, providing the same damage boost.

     

    If you dont have loads of overloads either, you could either buy a vecna skull, or use extreme magic pots.

  6. He has a point, phats and other rares are approaching max cash!

     

    You realise Blue is 3.8b minimum now. Lots of discussion atm is hinting toward 4.5+

     

    Went past max cash a while ago.

     

    As a phat owner, i wouldnt really care if they became untradable or something similar. I only have it because i dont know what to do with my cash.

  7. Ok so I've never been to GWD before but I'm planning on going with my friend who's experienced, will be doing duo and solo in the future when I get the hang of it.

     

    Here's my stats http://i.imgur.com/1MTYB.jpg

     

    The only "good" moneymaker at GWD, excluding Nex, is solo Bandos.

     

    With those stats, you will never be able to make good money at GWD. Every non-LS world nearly always has multiple people FFAing now. With no chaotics or Turmoil, you have got no chance.

     

    If you duo, you'll just get beaten by a soloer in non-LS world, and beaten by a better duo or a mass in a LS world.

     

    The next best (although much less profitable) boss, Armadyl, is also out of your league, with 88 range, no rigour(or SS), no ccbow.

     

    If you hate Dungeoneering that much, I would suggest getting 95 prayer and getting a long term Duo Corp partner. Without chaotics, thats the best you can do, Boss-wise.

  8. Just to add my opinion on your gear:

     

    You will not get into a good nex team with that setup. You didn't mention Claws (although your avatar suggests you own some), if using void you HAVE to use a deflector, Ranger boots are usually a requirement in a good team, as is rigour (especially as youre not using a maul).

  9. And rune darts are better in Kuradels due to the fast attack speed. In there they have higher raw dps then any other ranged weapon (correct me if I'm wrong Grimy).

     

     

    But you shouldnt be slaying in there anyway of course. Unless you have an Abby Demon task. (steels and irons are definately not dartable)

    untrue. i find hellhounds, greaters, and gargoyles to be very dartable. you can sorta do blue drags, but its a tossup between crossbow and darts then. but yeah, definitaley a crossbow or metal drags.

     

     

    Agh. I was referring to the fact that there are better places to do those tasks, or its better to not do them at all. If you insist on doing garg tasks (lol) then yes, you can rune dart them there. Hellhounds should be cannoned in resource dungeon. Greaters skipped or cannoned in rev dungeon, Blue drags skipped or cannoned in resource dungeon.

  10. And rune darts are better in Kuradels due to the fast attack speed. In there they have higher raw dps then any other ranged weapon (correct me if I'm wrong Grimy).

     

     

    But you shouldnt be slaying in there anyway of course. Unless you have an Abby Demon task. (steels and irons are definately not dartable)

  11. 1. Are there new ways to make money through combat which do not necessarily rely on other skills?

    Dragons dragons dragons. If you cant access Frosts, leech all the kills off the bots in CT Greens. You can get insanely high kph.

     

    2. any way to make money through herblore?

    Making unf potions, namely snaps. You can clean herbs for profit and xp, but the margins are usually small and the xp fairly poor. Especially if you don't have a massive cashpile to be able to buy a few hours worth of herbs at a time.

     

    3. should i keep my bandos and armadyll armor? (the one you get as drops from them)

    - i'm not a pk'er so i don't see a lot of use in them since torag's better stat-wise

    Bandos beats Torags almost anywhere. Even where your defence is critical, a faster kill can often make up for the increase in damage you may take. However, if you dont have turmoil, yak, overloads, I'd suggest investing that money in those. As for Armadyl, I really suggest you keep the plate. Sell the skirt and helm and make sure to get full void (with deflector, preferably elite robe bottom).

     

    4. fastest way to go from 57-65 agility with the lowest amount of risk?

    1 item at Wildy course. Revs no longer bother you, PKers tend not to either.

     

    5. any new random events i have to be aware off?

    No

     

    6. any new achievement capes?

    Look at the first update of this month.

     

    7. best place to train magic while casting fire bolt?

    That would be a terrible terrible way to train magic. Unlock Lunar spells asap and train using Hunter kit + String jewellery. If you cannot use those spells yet, superheat gold ore whilst smelting or mining it, or low alch teaks whilst chopping them. Depends on which other skills you want to train aswell.

  12. If people thought the botting was bad, its about to get a whole lot worse.

     

    New bot just released with cannon and yak support...

     

     

    [spoiler=Info regarding bots]

    "bot name" is the ultimate money making combat bot -- hands down. This bot will train combat at the Frost Dragons gaining 60k + XP /hr, while looting items at rates over $2 MILLION GP /hr! It just doesn't get any better than that! Don't believe us? Just have a look at some of the progress reports under the media tab. With "bot name", you're be a RS BILLIONAIRE in no time!

    Features

     

    * VERY FAST and human-like (60k+ XP /hr, $2m+ GP /hr loot)

    * Familiars support for Bull ant, Terrorbird, War tortoise, Pack Yak, and Bunyip

    * Protect and Deflect of Magic support

    * Full Cannon support. User can set up tiles where to put cannon

    * Full potion support

    * User specified loot table (RoW items are taken automatically)

    * Shark looting and eating if needed

    * Prayer and Summoning points re-charging on the way to Dragons

    * Falador banking

    * Save settings option in GUI

    * Full anti-ban protection

    * Solves all random events

     

     

    Have fun.

  13. As long as the 5yr has pretty good stats I can live with the fuglyness

     

    I'd be surprised if the stats are in any way better to what we currently have access to.

     

    I'd be more inclined to think that the capes will have no stats at all, like clan capes.

     

    They're aesthetic items, surely. Jagex are not likely to hand out Chaotic capes to people who have played for a few years.

  14. T1 with a 2h is better than a spear. The slash bonus is so high you can essentially brute force your way through any monster weak to stab, and you have a crush option for the others.

     

    Worth noting some stab weak things (eg: Hellhounds) are weaker to crush than slash. Don't just slash everything.
