  1. Well finally I have managed to recruit to my first sea witch - directly follower by number 2. At least I have 2 but it took really absurdly long for one to pop by - at least 250 crew members rolled before the first one appeared.

     

    I succeeded sea witch mission second day in Scythe and now I'm 20% into bowl have only seen 1 sea witch, passed judge of dice mission 3 days ago and seen 3 of them lol.

     

    If anyone is going for trade goods get as many as you can while in scythe, because in bowl trade good missions take twice as long but only give 50% more trade goods (3 instead of 2), as well as having much higher requirements, I don't understand why they don't give 4 that would make a lot more sense.

  2. Maybe spirit shields will have a use again, that can't be a bad thing.

     

    I wouldn't mourn the death of chaotics yet, these new weapons are almost definitely gonna be very expensive to buy and probably to use too assuming the new drops from kalphites used to recharge them are tradable, if they're untradable and take a long time to collect these weapons might not even be worth using for things like slayer.

     

    If the items used to recharge are tradable + the other drops from kalphites are improved a lot, kalphites might be the new grotworms (heavily botted) :(

  3. I wouldn't say so nearly all runetrackers records are insane thanks to f2p no hiscore and/or account creation causing 'gains' from 0xp to w/e ur current xp is.

    "Haxunit Net" gained 200m Construction xp today. Also, http://www.reddit.co...tion_dd_update/

     

    Haxunit also joined tracking today if you look at his profile, which suggests tht 198m is his entire xp being added opposed to true gains for the day; don't get me wrong it may be a bug; but the way runetracker profiles work make high records far too common to be indicative of a bug on their own.

     

    If there was no bug the person I mentioned in my last post would have had his full 120m+ construction xp added on runetracker today, not just 99m, he would also have had his xp from other skills added on not just 1.2k magic, definitely a bug

  4. ^Same happened to me didn't realise I had a random waiting until over a week after release. I had an assassin random earlier that was impossible to complete, tried every wandering stranger many times and none of them were the target, and no I definitely didn't miss one, I searched very thoroughly, could have done with some spectacles for my second ship but oh well. 6% to 5th area atm, would be further but missed about 3 days :/ picked up a very nice captain yesterday for 10k chimes too.

  5. Is it unusual that I've done every voyage since release day and still haven't had a random event? Is it obvious when you get one or do you have to check somewhere? Here is my specials today if anyone is interested, ancient bones + scroll mission both have the same requirements, I will probably just go for the story progress for now.

  6. I have tried lots of things to get DGSweeper to capture my party details but none have worked, so I decided to post here in case there is any solution, DGSweeper is a great tool but I wish I could see who is who on the map without having to hover over their names on the ingame map. I have tried deleting and redownloading DGS, changing all the settings on DGS on the taskbar, lots of combinations of ingame graphics settings, different web browsers, changing my PC graphic settings, using a different rs account, and lots of different screen resolutions, so my last option was to post here. It worked on my old windows vista PC which I got rid of ~6 months ago

    • An undistorted screenshot, PNG format, of your entire RuneScape applet with your dungeoneering map open and your DGSweeper visible.

    • Your DGSweeper version.

    1.0.4.1

    • Your RuneScape graphics settings.

    Max settings apart from low lighting detail and no bloom or AA, I have tried on minimum and it still doesn't work however

    • Your client - Browser, Jagex client, SwiftKit, etc.

    Runescape client, have also tried various web browsers

    • Your operating system.

    Windows 7 64 bit

     

    Thanks in advance if you can help

    (I know there are other topics on this but none of them gave a solution so I thought I'd make my own instead of posting in an old topic)

  7. Surely with old combat it would have been easy to either see if it's possible to hit below 41 or use keenblade spec which always hits 50 and see if it hit 90? Not so sure how you could prove it now though. I always thought it added 40 to every hit, hopefully they will get around to increasing this amount for eoc, but yeah as of right now it's pretty useless except as a tele to kuradal.

  8. There will always be lots of rumour and myth about this now but I wonder how much gp was actually converted to real money. I'm pretty sure if I was a bank manager and suddenly thousands of pounds started appearing in one of my clients accounts from china that I'd be pretty suspicious of something dodgy going on like laundering. It would appear that it was faster to dupe the cash than to actually get rid of it.

     

    I'm guessing it goes to a paypal account which isn't a bank account, then they would gradually move small amounts at a time to their actual bank account, so it won't look suspicious

     

    But some of them are dumb enough to activate monetisation on their videos and in theory Jagex could get their personal details from YouTube/Google.

     

    I don't think they would be allowed to give out personal details unless an actual crime has been commited (even then idk), breaking rs rules =/= breaking the law

  9. Hmm

    Why would you even pay for XP instead of gaining it with fun?

    Why would you even pay for XP instead of gaining it with fun?

     

    Grinding 200ms is fun?

     

    Fun is subjective, thats why their are skillers, pkers, pvmers, dicers, people enjoy different things, and the top players wouldn't have got to where they are if they didn't find grinding out 200m's fun, unless you think they all want to quit but are just hopelessly addicted lol. But I don't think many people would find working full time then blowing the majority of it on spins to buy their way through the ranks 'fun', if they do that's their choice but I think even if a top player knows it would be faster/more efficient to work and buy spins, they wouldn't either because it would get them flamed by everyone or just because they consider it a 'cheap' (metaphorically speaking) way to gain xp, with no actual skilling involved, and encourages Jagex's greedy schemes to continue.

  10. They are better melee stats than barrows but don't have range or mage bonus like barrows do, I think they're similar maybe even better as a crush weapon than maul plus their special effect lowers defence (it activates randomly, doesn't use spec bar). They degrade quite fast though, they only last a few hours.

     

    I haven't tried the beta but I heard they don't have their spec, maybe it will be added later though

     

    Yeah it's fast to get more but they degrade so fast and they don't stack in the bank so a lot of times they're not worth using

  11. I hate you for motivating me to stop being lazy and finally make super prayers, grinding 1k bones is taking forever.

    Unfortunately I have no tokens atm and not gonna dg til they fix the zoom bug otherwise I would get spirit cape. (and rigour/aug)

    I think I got all I needed to know now, my kilns should be a little faster, thanks for all the tips.

  12. Thanks everyone, here's my improved setup

     

    20127ut.jpg

     

    Will upgrade mage book to arcane eventually

    Feel free to point out if anything else can be improved, I could get away with bringing 1 ovl flask and an extra gear switch I guess.

     

    On another note, since the update every time I finish and claim reward, my camera zooms in on leaving and there's no way to get it back to normal without reloading the game client, has this happened to anyone else?

     

    Sorry to hijack but are those summoning flasks or magic? Also I'm assuming a steel titan? If you didn't have that what would you bring?

    Summoning, If I didn't have titan I'd probably bring uni, would slow it down a lot but other combat familiars aren't very good.

  13. Karils is like twice the dps of ccbow, but I cbf calculating exactly how much.

    I would like to see where you get this from, I've heard people say karils is better but I'm not sure myself, and I'm guessing it would increase costs

     

    Zam book is useless. Use a dragon defender or defensive shield.

    It has pray bonus and bonus to all 3 combat styles, ddf only helps melee accuracy (rangers have low def anyway) and I don't need the def bonus

     

    Accumulator is just unnecessary range bonus – it barely increases dps vs low defense.

    I use it because saves a lot of bolts = lower cost = more gp p/h (inb4 you can pick the bolts up, I don't have invy space and I won't juggle invy just to pick up bolts)

     

    Swift gloves would massively increase dps, but I don't have much kiln experience so I'm not sure how practical they are.

    Ok, will try them

     

    Don't bother with sharpshooter aura (I think that's what you're using). If anything, use equilibrium.

    It's vampyrism, equ might be a good idea while vamp recharges though

     

    Tokkul-Zo is the best ring to use.

    but it means spending time killing tzhaar to recharge, not sure if the increase in dps is worth the time to gather tokkul

     

    thanks for the reply, sorry if I sound critical of your advice, I do appreciate it, I just want to clarify a few things, I guess I'm trying to work out the 'perfect' kiln setup, I will definetly try out karils cbow though.

  14. I just started doing kilns for cash, only done 14 so far but I'm used to the technique and memorised the waves/where to stand/when to use crystals etc. I'm just asking here if anything about my gear or setup can be improved to make it slightly faster, atm it takes me around 45-50 mins

     

    current setup

    znjxuh.jpg

     

    Don't say nex gear or divine

     

    -Should I be bringing a tokkul ring for some waves, to be honest I don't remember what its exact effect is but I only have about 200k tokkul banked so not sure if it's worth the recharge costs for the time saved

    -I wear ragefire boots, but thinking maybe glaiven would be better? To speed up killing mages, Or should I bring a boot switch?

    -Should I bring swift glove switch instead of ava's? It would speed up dps but increase cost of supplies, not sure if worth it

    -Some people say karils is better than CCB? How much better is the dps if this is true, I have trouble believing it

    -Whats a good time to aim for on average

     

    Just looking for anything that can save me some time/increase gp p/h, hopefully there's some experienced kilners in H&A

  15. Since this update every time I finish fight kiln my camera is zoomed all the way in when i leave, but on graphics settings it says its still zoomed out, no way to fix this except closing and reloading the client, is this just me or is anything similar happening to anyone else?

    I like the idea of being able to zoom but the way they implemented it isn't so good, having to go to graphics options to use it is annoying and I'd like to be able to zoom out more than zoom in, they showed it's possible when they released QBD, dissapointing execution of something that could have been a really useful update imo.
