Hybridding with void, godsword and rune c'bow owns her. also, don't use diamond (e) bolts... too expensive. use plain runite instead.

Yup... I'll update the guide eventually to include that.

A few weeks ago it was easy to get friends to do it with me, though now not too many people do it. is there a world where I can find a group of 5 for a large dungeon? on floor 23 btw... only getting 2k prestige so I figure I'm wasting effort right now if I'm not getting a 5-man prestige bonus.

I've got a weighted 40-lb vest for similar purposes... used to put weights in my backpack for walking around campus, but the vest is a lot better for my back (less risk of injury)

how much can he bench?

just posted this in the penguin locations topic as well (penguins just reset for the week): for those of you who talk to chuck for peng points, it's quicker to talk to him outside of the gates than to navigate through the zoo to find him. if you've got the ardy cape you can teleport to the monastery and just run north instead of from ardy market too:

was getting almost 140k xp/hour at monkey skeletons at 89 strength with piety, lava titan, and d scim I don't like dharoking there since prayer drains nearly twice as fast... 1gp/xp ratio with proselyte there, factoring in costs of potions (at 80 prayer). somewhat AFK'able too (though not as easy as monkey zombies). I imagine it's almost 150k with whip and iron titan. was using my phone's stopwatch to keep track of XP but a buddy texted me and reset the timer lol. still pretty good xp though :thumbup:

Alternatively, you could try getting better at killing them God forbid a boss monster is actually difficult in this game. . .

Batch 2 won't be out until at least June... In one of the April interviews, they said it wouldn't be released "next month [May]"

Use ice barrage there since you need to kill as many lobsters as possible for the 40 minute period. Every time I do it, I gear up for rock lobs once I'm ready to cash in my reward at pikkupstix, and then I have a friend teleother us immediately to waterbirth so I waste as little time as possible.

Before I got void, I used welfare gear there since my internet connection was unreliable... Fortunately, the difference between optimum gear and welfare gear isn't too great at TDs Helm of Neitiznot Glory Prayer-boosting cape > fire cape or accumulator D'hide top D'hide chaps Barrows gloves Climber boots or Frog boots Whip/rune c'bow Explorer ring/ring of life Broad bolts (if you really wanna be frugal... otherwise use plain runite since they're cheaper than diamond) Zammy book or defender super att, super str, range pot, darklight, sapphire lantern, alch runes, elemental titan scrolls and extra pouch, prayer pots, extra food make sure you've got the 500k gravestone so you can get back to your items in time, and make sure you've got extra sapphire lanterns in your bank

in all seriousness - go to church plenty of frustrated 'goodgirls' who are sick of all the pigs and dying to meet a bloke who's serious about a committed relationship, more prudish on average than your random skank - and you'll have to make a great impression on the parents - but generally good gf material found at church tbh not where I'm from. I've actually been hanging around more and more youth groups because of their plethora of notorious [bleep]. So far...they're actually too dirty to even consider. Similarly, virgins are 6x more likely to give head than non-virgins (MANSWERS, et al 2010)

I don't see myself as a major benefactor on this thread any time soon. My advice is too "long-term" and personal for anyone to consider at their age. My philosophy towards social interactions/women revolves wholly about the concept of "inner game," as you guys call it, and being natural and comfortable with yourself and everything you do. You can teach someone "outer game," however you cannot teach someone inner game. Outer game gets you sex quickly and efficiently, but does not help relationships (in fact, it usually hurts them). Inner game doesn't get you sex as quickly or efficiently, however it's critical for maintaining a relationship. If you have a solid, secure inner self, then your outer self is just a reflection of it, and it's very natural and genuine. Basically what I'm saying is, if you've mastered inner game, then "outer game" shouldn't even be in your vocabulary. Now, a quick history lesson-- seduction principles emerged from a site called Fastseduction. Keyword: fast. These guys weren't interested in relationships-- just sex, as quickly and efficiently as possible. Thus, when you start mixing PUA principles with relationships, things start getting messy. This is also why I become concerned when people on here seem interested in a relationship, but are given seduction advice. However, if the people around here really are only interested in a [bleep] buddy (which, by the way, is not a relationship), then by all means, use those techniques to your hearts content. Anyway, this thread mostly seems to be focused on seduction nowadays rather than building or maintaining a relationship. Thus, my advice isn't really helpful. However, even if every visitor on this thread came asking about questions on how to enter a relationship or how to manage their relationship, I feel that my advice would still be somewhat irrelevant. You can't teach inner game to someone. Basically all I can do is try to inspire people to start developing themselves, as an investment for their future. Even then, it's not like I can guide them very far using this forum as a medium. I'm not their friend in real life, I'm just a stranger on the internet using foreign examples. It's unrealistic of me to expect people to hang on my every word around here and take the initiative to begin their lifelong journey of self-improvement. So... Rain check on that one ;)

Void's really bad for maging there... I tried hybrid maging w/ void... not worth it.

It's more accurate than range or melee... Don't mage them unless you're duoing or trioing (recommended) though. In which case, you should mage ONLY since it's too much of a hassle to deal w/ the 1-click autocast while hybriding. Use battle robes + sol if you have them... otherwise ahrims will have to suffice (battle robes only have slightly less mage att than ahrims). If you mage, demons will have mage pray on more than range or melee since mage is so damn consistent there. edit: idk what ovls is and I don't have an arcane stream... standard gear is more than enough to get the job done

It would still be nice if we could have someone who's more interested in attracting for the long-term than for the short term. I made a long post about my feelings towards this topic a while ago. In a nutshell, it seems to me that most people on this thread are more interested in just dating or having sex with hot girls, rather than getting into relationships or falling in love (which is surprising since the topic title is "'I want a girlfriend,' and other relationship advice"). It also seems that a lot of people here have just become disenchanted with the idea of getting into a relationship or falling in love. Additionally, a few people have stated in the past that they have some pretty serious psychological problems (which makes maintaining a relationship pretty complicated). Picking up girls is easy. You can do that w/o being yourself-- you can have a cool (fake) personality and act like hot [cabbage] and they'll all flock to you. However, after you've been dating the same girl for over a year, trying to be someone you're not, it becomes pretty obvious to the girl that you're acting like someone you're not, and things begin to fall apart. The most important thing about being in a relationship is to be yourself... something which seems to be unrecommended around here, unfortunately. Though, being someone you're not isn't always a bad thing. A few years ago I did a lot of self-examination and basically thought of traits that I wished I had, and decided if they were really as important as they appeared to be. Then, if they were important, I focused on developing them. So, for a while I wasn't really "myself" until I had matured those traits and they became part of who I am now. Similarly, I also looked at all of my "flaws" and thought about them-- were they really flaws that would mess up my life or were they just imagined flaws? If they were serious flaws, was there anything I could do to fix them? If not, could I learn to deal with them? As I've said before, a lot of people around here seem to have some serious flaws and aren't doing anything about them. Instead of taking the long, difficult route of doing lots of self-examination and improvement, they're taking the easy way out of covering it up with a fake persona which they don't seem to be benefiting or learning from. Then again, though, as mentioned previously, not many people around here actually seem to mind being single, so I guess nothing's wrong :P Back to your original comment, though, I don't post much around here since I feel like I'm from a completely different "school of thought" than everyone else around here, so my advice always conflicts with theirs. It all depends on what the person asking for help wants, and how badly they want it.

I feel kinda mean for leaving you one line of advice followed by my criticism lol, so here's some personal experience: about two years ago I broke up w/ my girlfriend of 3 years and I was pretty much devastated... your feelings of depression are normal. at least, they're the same I was feeling. I was extremely pissed off at times, sad and depressed at others, and then sometimes I'd just feel numb after all of it-- nothing would upset or amuse me-- I was just emotionless and empty. Though, after moving to college and joining my fraternity and making 70 close friends instantly, I got back on my feet a lot quicker than I would have otherwise. It still burned even during college, but every day it hurt less and less till after a while I didn't care at all anymore and I just reflected upon it and it made me a lot stronger. I also changed a few aspects of my personality to prevent future errors in relationships, and to use that relationship as experience for future ones. you're gonna be hurting for a while probably-- best thing you can do is learn that it'll stop hurting eventually and it's not the end of the world. not everybody you meet is as perfect as they seem to be. hang out w/ your close friends and either write up your feelings on a computer or let a friend listen to you... catharsis is extremely helpful. a friend has the same cathartic effect as a professional psychologist (psych study demonstrated that effect... I am also a psychology major) so you might as well spend your time w/ a friend instead of someone you don't even know. best of luck to you, you seem like a strong person. hopefully you'll recover quicker than I did ;)

Take a holiday over here in Aus, as an American you'll have an accent, so women will take interest in you just because of that. Plus everything is cheaper here, and Dan and myself will sort you out. Careful, I might take you up on that offer :') Thank you. Your console means alot. I've gone numb. i went through a good 10minutes of EXTREME anger. Then I realized I wasn't sure what to do. Now, I don't feel anything. ...I think I might see my school psychologist tomorow. I've been daydreaming of...well...not very good things. And now I don't feel anything at all. As a future psychologist myself, I know these aren't good signs. ...I really don't have time for therapy though. Why the hell did I get this involved in this girl? What on god's green Earth was I thinking? Time fixes that issue... that, and reflecting on your previous bad experiences and learning how to avoid/conquer them in the future. I apologize if this hurts and feels like I'm kicking you when you're down, but this is the reason why I feel like no one on this thread has the right to call themselves a "guru." It's like the blind leading the blind... people should be able to fix and manage their own problems before trying to fix and manage other people's. Sorry... just had to say that. :unsure:

I kind of wish they'd give all guilds a level 99 requirement and give all of the guilds amazing benefits

Assuming you use the altar to recharge prayer at least half the time, it's less efficient to use boost prayers which drain quicker than 10% strength there. Though if you're using prayer pots only, it'd probably be better just to move to the ape atoll skeletons in the dungeon and use turmoil and extremes there with proselyte and whip. I go there sometimes and you can definitely get beyond 120k/hour there

:mellow: I don't have a slayer helm yet, and was thinking about getting one. So it seems to have a very low protection potential. Get it. I can't overstate this. If you have the money and you slay, get it now. If there are any particular items you want me to check, I have one and would be willing to s=check for you. Also, it's worth noting that the FSH has 10 more mage def over the SH So yes, get it/ I don't slay, and I was (am) going to primarily use it for Armadyl Solo. lol. I'll just accept that I'll lose it if I die, and a 3M loss isn't too bad. Er. Why use full slayer helm there exactly? Mainly the +10 Mage Def. Also, Range Bonus + Some Melee Defense. I'd rather have a little bit of melee defense than the additional range bonus that arma helm offers. Logically it would seem that mage def is critical at armadyl, however it's pretty overrated. I went to armadyl once with infinity boots, mage's book, and basically any other mage def-boosting item instead of range att-boosting. I still got hit just about as often as always by his mage attacks. Don't go out of your way for negligible mage def boosts there.

I expect it will make them slide slighty. It is a fairly low level, easy to acquire item, which can then be used in all bar dragon combat really to gain prayer xp. Factor this in for newer players especially and odds are overall you are going to knock 1mil xp off of getting 99 prayer (if not more), which means lowered demand for bones. Not a huge impact, but an impact none the less Most "newer" players aren't going to have bonecrushers, though. 1mil XP is kind of a ridiculous estimation... that's 250,000 normal monsters killed or about 14k dragons.

This thread isn't very fun to check on anymore ;(
