question about RFD quest
If you know which quests you CAN'T do tht r needed for rfd, surely by proxy you can work out what segments of rfd you cant do and thus what level of gloves u can reach?

Just got back and need some advice...
Yeah a lot of people seem to think using a middle man "makes it ok" cause you are not multi logging. However the rules clearly state your accounts (if you have more than 1) must NOT directly or indirectly interact; and that any intentional wealth transfer, even via a middle man is not allowed. but yeah as people covered above stats > items sure items are good. But say you go and die in your full bandos without having trained your stats; now you gotta get bk to ur dangerously placed grave with limited armour and cruddy skills. Die with high prayer or high end pots you still ahve prayer and the means to make the pots AND with their aid you have better odds of recovering your gear.

question about RFD quest
I don't think theres technically any quests that REQUIRE prayer to be allowed to do RFD or indeed to complete it. But you'll have to fight alot of tough bosses to get there.

Conquest
I don't think conquests i really something you can get crystal clear advice on is all about YOU and THEM. No 1 setup can beat every other setup and with every single setup theres the human aspect of your forward planning, logic, predictions etc. It's like the whole all champ team = ownage. This may be true if you are good at the strategy part of the game. But in the first few days I pwned heaps of all champ teams with a single champ team, simply by forward planning and good tactical use of troops. It's all luck in the end. Every team has gotta be a tank team (mostly melee), balanced or a snipe team (archers, mages scouts etc) You have to play defensive or offensive You have to play by sheer power or by wit or a balance. The endless variables make it so at any given time ur team culd suddenly be sucky comapred to the opponent. Personally I have a balanced squad and tend to play with wit rather than power and stick on the defensive for most of the time. For me this works well until I come up agaisnt someone who has a good sniping team that plays by power or a tank team that plays defence and stays clustered. My teams strength lies in being able to quickly take out most units after luring them away from the herd, plus carefully choosen commands to make a nice "beserker" style champ, but also allow sniping to be done safely.

Chaos tunnels in wildy
Yes. However its easy to dodge such people and if you ar really worried you can go via the portal under the statue east of varrock used qhen u first unlock bork.

WAIT ONE SECOND WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPEND
Basically that's what you can do, and win an overall 2% off membership, which just doesn't make sense. In the old days, membership used to always be 30 days, no matter what, which would make more sense for players and jagex. Thats a load of crock in all my years of membership I have always gotten 28, 29, 30 or 31 days depending on the month.

New Reward?
Yeah the whole dummy-scout thing works but its still not quite as safe or as write off able as self-scouting while on surface. But this is getting off topic since this is all hypothetical

Tip to prevent getting hacked
As I said checking it is a waste of time because if a cancel request has been made you get alerted to it and offer to abort it as soon as you enter your pin correctly to access your bank. And lets face it in normal rs playing your either out camping a spot, and thus would notice you've been moved or you're gonna bank at some point. Which means without purposefully going out of your way to check it you will known if it has been reset.

New Reward?
I'm just saying its a bit naive to take the view, with something like AZs in particular, that it doesn't matter at all because u can see a group coming or you can dodge 1 pker because when popping up for prayer you are going in totally blind as it were. Sure pkers can camp anywhere and its the same in many places, pkers are usually fairly easy to dodge or see coming. I just meant exclusively the idea of coming up blind from a safe dungeon to plain wildy, in a place likely to be a camping hotspot, can hardly be written off in the same way dodging pkers to get into a place can be. Afterall you can dodge a group you can see way off on the map, but you can't dodge a group you have no idea are there who are purposefully waiting outside a dungeon like that for someone to appear.

01-Feb-2011 - Behind the Scenes - February
I'm guessing; as it was mentioned in relation to farmers, some form of access that gets you much closer to the tree patch straight away and is more practical to use than a crystal seed tht eats invent space (big issue for efficient farm runs) and requires to be gathered enmass or recharged freqeuntly (which costs and is often easier said than done with them moving about). I mean people thought there'd never be a faster way than abyss to rc. Then along came altar tele tabs and summoning. Spirit trees never used to be a viable option for getting around unless u happened to be at gnome palces; then jagex made them directly useable from any tree and dumped one right by ge near alot of good basic "hub" type teleports and all of a sudden spirit trees are a gr8 method for getting to some places.

WAIT ONE SECOND WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPEND
Where is the logic behind giving 31 days of membership one second, 28 days of membership the next second? If you bought a month of membership on the 31st, your membership will last 2-3 days longer than when you would have bought it a day later. Makes no sense. I don;t get why people find this so confusing or weird. The entire world works this way. If you pay £200 rent a month, you still pay the same amount for less time in february. If you have a contract phone you are billed monthly and free allowances run monthly, which again means less time for feb. In the entire world of buying things it is FAR more unusual for a monthly payment to relate to a set number of days, instead they run by numerical date. Phone contract payments for my bill are taken on the 19th of the month every month. Rent payments go on the first of very month. Bill (on a fixed tariff) come in on the 20th of every month. Broadband comes in on the 18th of every month. They all cost the same amount (assuming don't go over the tariff allowences) regardless of the month of the year.

New Reward?
How you are meant to see if a group is coming if they are waiting at AZs entrance and you pop up the ladder to recharge prayer may I ask? I know this is mere hypothetical since its instanced now; but you attitude thought right in some ways seems overly dismissive and cocky given the whole perceived problem with AZs in wildy is people camping up top, you're down below and have no idea who or what is up there and need to go up to grab a pray recharge and for all you know you could be instantly teleblocked and frozen when you do so.

Tip to prevent getting hacked
Actually if you look up what hacking is the term covers the following methods: Vulnerability scanner Password cracking Packet sniffer Spoofing attack Rootkit Social engineering Trojan horses Viruses Worms Key loggers Spoofing Attacks are used to hack rs accounts, such as the recent email scam. As they spoof the webpage to try and get to input ur password. Social engineering is used to hack rs accounts, again fake emails; but also "I'm a jmod" scam and the older "jagex blocks your password in chat try it" Key loggers are big one in rs hacking. I'm pretty sure theres probably some people out there who try to do password cracking, though not heard of any cases. And some probably try to use vulnerability scanners, packet sniffers and rootkits; though jagex is well secured so no issues there.

Tip to prevent getting hacked
Captain obvious to the rescue! A better tip is get decent AV program and don;t visit dodgey sites; this eliminates keyloggers and thus 99.9% methods of becoming hacked. Also last I check rs passwords are not case sensitive so capitals vs lower case is a waste. And purposefully checking pin settings is a waste as you get told if there is a reset request after you enter it correctly; it comes up saying you request to rest your pin do you wish to abort this (or w/e)

Runescape Graphics Problem
I like how you kinda betrayed youself as clearly lying further up the thread. This is a know issue with opengl rendering option since last update. First advice you got was to switch to safe mode/a different render option. You said you did. You clearly can't of since this issue simply does not occur in safe mode, software mode or direct x mode ONLY opengl mode.
-
New Reward?
Aside from the fact pk gorups camp obvious spots such as AZs entrance to jump unsuspecting ppl n pwn them. But aside from tht AZs insstanced that means you will ALWAYS be on your own in the dungeon, which means no more fighting for spots.
-
New Reward?
Yeah the seem to of largely scrapped the idea. Activites tht were in wildy way bk when got no bonuses. Then most moved out. For the quests they created instanced areas that are safe; interesting factoid by talking to the captain guy even AFTER the quest tht unlocks AZs he will escourt you to a 100% safe non wildy instanced area for the AZ dungeon, ergo AZ's just got a lot less crowded.
-
New melee training
Not helpful since u only get in the dungeon twice during the quest and after that its locked til quest is completed.

Strange graphical glitch...
Yes I did.

Ironic that I had no problem with it on my mac. yet since this "fix" opengl will do this buggy [cabbage]e on both my windows and mac systems

01-Feb-2011 - Behind the Scenes - February
Demon ashes I'm guessing won;t work on altars because demons, by their very nature are UNHOLY while an altar is a holy shrine. Also as for construction being not useful, I think you'd be surprised.. Consider how many times a day (when ur moving around the map) you dart thru an agility shortcut you've gotten used to being there Then consider how many times you probably run straight past grapple shortcuts (more so than eagles) as if they aren't there because its simply a hassle to get the grapple out. Spend a few mins putting in these hidey holes and all of a sudden those grapple shortcuts can become a part of your natural routing. If they do let us plant more than 1 spirit tree at a time tht'll be WIN. Fact they r giving us a patch at what will (hopefully) atleast be a useful new dungeon if not a whole new useful city may bode well even without being able to plant more than 1 (finally a definitvely useful spirit tree poatch?) Glider network additions plural sounds promising. Faster access to lleyta i shuld think a bk way out of the gnome city str8 into lleyta, possibly where a new glider spot will be. Thoose skill urns sound promising too, sure it takes an inventory slot but the bonus amounts sound reasonable for minimal effort in making them. Since they r pottery gotta just be spin n firn it, thou it does say adding the right run, but like runes are in short supply to any mid>high lvl account cept perhaps bloods

Where to buy?
Given that the entire market got turned upside down today. No there is no such maps that cover current existence. Also no guarantees after nostalgia wears off such places will exist. Sure free trade means buy/sell for w/e u like...but tht functionality was added to the GE anyway. So why stand in 1 world yelling selling x for y over and over and over when u can put in the ge for y and leave it be til someone who is buying x for y puts in an equal and opposite offer.

WAIT ONE SECOND WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPEND
If you care tht much you can buy a month in the last 2 days of jan regardless of membership left as then you'll get a full 31 days which will get u through to atleast march 1st

dragon armour?
Fortunately your agreement with me is not a prerequisite for the truthfullness of my statement. Also even if you wanna sit and camp you go get bandos or void or prayer armour or jsut get plain rune. The stat differnece between ruen n drag is so not worth the money ever
