How should i use my range/melee brawlers?
I was under the impression each 'charge' was reduced per hit and not xp or damage, so chinning would be one of the worst options, but i'm not sure on that. And i was thinking i could pay a friend to stand in level 1 wilderness with me and let me wail on him (After he zammy brews to 1 defense) :P

How should i use my range/melee brawlers?
Hi. I have 4 range brawlers way back from BH and i've never used them, i'm wondering how i should go about doing that now. I also have pair of melee brawlers. Same again.

Affording turmoil... Need some advice.
Wait what? How? Do ashes 'use' faster than bones or something, because the most i've ever been able to do wtih dragon bones is 1150, which is where the estimates come from (roughly) And that's with the exact same setup as you.

Affording turmoil... Need some advice.
79 slayer but that's kinda lame money and experience. I'm using peng points on summoning as that's harder than making a few m for me. What are these methods? >.< The only thing i ever do for money now days is duo bandos... But that's not exactly a reliable income.

Gold Charm Hunting
Why on earth would you want gold charms in the first place? It would be much more efficient to kill waterfiends or rock lobsters for crimson charms...

Affording turmoil... Need some advice.
I am currently about 45m bank and really want turmoil. Now, i think i can just afford to get it using big bones... But i don't think i can handle using bones on an altar for that long, it'll kill me >.> So. Are there any alternative ways to train prayer... OR how can i make some more money so i can afford a faster bone. Big bones = 44m - 60k/hour Bdragon bone = 53m - 115k xp/hour Infernal ashes = 63m - 230k xp/hour Dragon bones = 75m - 275k xp/hour The money is currently invested in armour, but i don't mind selling it of course.

Are Turmoil Zerkers fun/worth it?
For a pker? Hell no. Suffer for those chaotics if you want them (kinda pointless, scimORwhip/claws is a much better combo for +1 item worlds) and don't ruin your account for convenience. and whats your dg lvl? 89. But that isn't relevant. The whole point of making a pure is you SACRIFICE convenience and things like that to make your account as GOOD as possible for pking. Trust me, you will regret those few hours saved when it comes to actually pking. 1cb level on a pure is the difference between being a good pker and a failed one. And you really don't use chaotics in the wilderness for efficient pking on a zerker. Hell, if you want to be as good as possible, stick to 60 attack and use dscim/dds/claws. You rely on special attacks for kills almost entirely anyway, and claws > ags on your low defense opponents.

orange hit splat
It means max hit BEFORE some boosts. For example, if you can hit a 500 normally, and are fighting undead with a salve (e) amulet, any hit from 500-600 will be orange. I don't know if this is intended by jagex or not. Other things that act the same way are void armour and slayer helm. Also, any hit with a special weapon that hits higher than the normal max hit of that weapon, for example dragon mace, will be orange. I believe a korasi special will always be orange as part of the formula assumes a regular magic attack with it is impossible and will hit a 0, or something like that. But as others have said, sometimes it just seems broken.

Best melee Aura these days?
I don't think the raw amount of hp healed is the main issue, it's the fact that it is done without wasting time for eating food. (If prayer is really such an issue, why not use a Ghast over a unicorn?) For most of the things where either aura would be of any use, you can't survive on just uni/soul split and would always bring extra food. I used bandos as an example because i can't personally survive there perfectly without this aura. Not everyone is maxed. Personally, i can heal a hell of a lot more prayer points per inventory slot than i can heal life points. I'm also looking forward to seeing exactly how Equilibrium works with those two weapons and dark bow, i'm guessing they'll be overpowered for a day, everyone wastes points on it, nerfed. >.> ^^ The above assumes they work in wilderness, which they clearly won't, my mistake.

Jad for real this time!
I just got my second firecape ever, with melee (piety and extremes) :) So happy. Just wear high defense gear and only worry about protecting from the 360s. (Lure 180s behind the 360 if convenient, but with soulsplit flicks you really won't need to) For jad you want to attack him with rapier until the healers appear, then unload your claw specials hopefully for the KO. If he doesn't go down, switch back to rapier and finish him off. Try to switch between prayers when possible, but if you don't feel confident just stick to protect from melee and eat when neccessary. Ranged is easier. A lot easier. But you could probably get to jad twice with melee before you make it to him with range, so if you feel like you have only slightly better chances with range, you might as well get twice as many attempts with melee.

Solid Moneymaking
Well you seem to have a lot of quest points so TD's and Glacors aren't out of reach. Other than that, boss! Bossing is fun and great profit, i don't see why you'd not want to do it. It's not great profit at all, but killing waterfiends for their crimson charms and getting 96 summoning may be in your best interests, seeing as you're fairly close already. (And it's rather nice melee experience too, which you could do with)

Why can't F2P have...?
I havnt' been a f2p for a very long time but it always annoyed me that you guys can't use yew bows or rune arrows, despite being able to cut yews down and mine/smith rune :S Also, you guys should be entitiled to use crossbows. At the moment, melee is way overpowered in f2p. (Or at least it was)

Armadyl Staff.
It's only going to go down in price as more come into the game. Put it in for 80m, if no sale in an hour, lower it, keep going until it sells.

Are Turmoil Zerkers fun/worth it?
40 defense > 45 defense. All you get from 45 is an expensive (relative to your other armour) helmet that gives +3 strength. Not worth the combat level(s) Definatley get 40 though. Vengeance and rune armour/defender and dhide body is invaluable. They're a lot of fun. But you won't be making your money back from turmoil for a very long time unless you do risk fights, and actually win.

2 Effigies in a row
Yeah it really depends on the task. A mithril dragon has about a 1/150 rate, or 1/22500 for back to back. (Rare, but certainly not unimaginable.) While a level 23 has a drop rate of 1/25000, or 1/625000000 for back to back. (Yeah...)

Best melee Aura these days?
Prayer potions are 3k. I don't see myself ever actually using this as it can't keep up with constant turmoil. It's only real use is saving inventory slots by needing less prayer pots. But saving food (and healing mid fight) is far more useful in my opinion. Another positive to mention about penance though, it would give more prayer points per damage than a divine would take off. So it's basically like having a divine without the prayer drain.

"omg you're not answering my stupid questions you are a bot!"
Implying that everyone mines for days in a row. It doesn't matter if it takes you a week or a decade, you're still going to mine several 10000 ores. Back on topic though, i never get this. I never get someone accusing me of botting. It's probably because i'm a chatty cathy that never does anything so boring a bot could do it. If all you do on runescape is mine pure essense, get used to it. Bots rule runescape, the law of averages says that any essense miner is most likely a bot, and you'd be silly to assume otherwise.

How do i best Duo/Trio Bandos? Is solo a posibility?
Yeah i really need to do edgars ruse, i just hate questing >.> I was thinking turmoil next as it would increase my killrate a lot more and soulsplit would help a lot for extending trips, but i guess overloads/brews would help even more for lasting long. I use fruit bat + scrolls because the fruit heals way more than a bunyip, can be used by the whole team, and i don't have a uni yet. People seem to underestimate noobs these days... I've already duo'd 300+ kills with a lower level than myself, we get about 20 graardor kills a trip, and it's definatley one of the best money makers for my level, despite being less efficient than maxed players. Plus we rarely get crashed/don't have much trouble finding a world. Thanks for the tip, kandy. But sadly that's not the type of crasher we ever get as we duo lootshare worlds we usually only get crashed by larger teams. I used to use sharks, but after my first few BCP's i decided it was worth blowing a few 100k more on 15% more healing...

Best melee Aura these days?
I personally believe vampirism will be the only real useful one. It's basically a permanent soulsplit that only heals 5% health instead of 20% But that's still a lot of healing. If you have maxed stats and gear, you should easily be capable of averaging a 250 with cls on graardor, including misses. That's 15000 lifepoints healed in an hour from vampirism (75 sharks worth of healing!!!) without ever wasting time actually eating food and missing an attack turn. Even more if you count your special attacks and the higher dps you will do to the minions. Slightly less if you think about respawn times. But yeah. Still amazing. People seem to underestimate just how amazing 5% health per damage is when you hit like a truck. And that's at graardor. With a rapier on any slayer task, you'll be healing a lot more.

How many commendation for hybrid boots?
Lost void yesterday. Guess i have a reason to go for boots now. :) Someone on my friends list got 5 pairs of boots in a day btw, i noticed it spam my alog. (4 of them were tricksters) so i can assume they become more common or his bot is the luckiest thing ever.

How do i best Duo/Trio Bandos? Is solo a posibility?
I want to know the exact gear, inventory, summoning, stats to level. Everything that i should be using both at my current level and once maxed. Strength 99 --- Attack 91--- Defense 80 --- Lifepoints 93 --- Magic 94 --- Prayer 78 --- Summoning 73 --- Herblore 85 (Many extreme attack/strengths in bank. Can easily stew up some super defense if prefered over brews) I have approximatley 40m bank, currently invested in claws and fury, but i don't mind selling and replacing if it will improve my bandos effectivness. I have 2.5k crimson charms and about 30 ancient effigies. I have 100 sw zeal. I have chaotic maul and rapier. I have an imbued berserker ring and points to imbue 10+ other rings if neccessary. I have SW cape. I could easily get elite void set (recently lost it >.>) and any other minigame related item such as firecape if recommended. Currently i use Veracs helm --- Karils top --- Veracs plateskirt --- Bandos boots --- Barrows gloves --- Amulet of fury --- Berserker ring (i) --- SW cape --- Chaotic maul --- Zamorak arrows With dragon claws for specials. I bring 2 extreme strengths. 2 extreme attacks. 2 brews. 2 super restores. 3 prayer potions. 1 fruit bat pouch. 300 fruitfall scrolls. 1 hammer. 1 Climbing boots; 5 special restores. (For anticrashing and faster kills, the fast kills usually results in much less damage done to the entire team, hard to decide if worth an inventory slot though) 8 rocktails. I also bring a summoned war tortoise full of rocktails. I'd also appreciate a leveling guide. Should i focus on 99 attack first as i'm the offensive one, or would increasing my defense help more? Should i get turmoil next, or overloads, or work towards maxed gear first? Thank you in advance.

Where can i find runescape statistics? (drop rates etc)
Firstly, that's a joke. You're supposed to laugh or sigh at them, not pick out their flaws. (You have no idea how hard i am going to hit you and in which area, to you, it's random.) Secondly, of course it's "unreliable" as it's edittable by anyone. But what really is reliable? Tip.it? Hell no. Jagex database? I lol'd.

"omg you're not answering my stupid questions you are a bot!"
I honestly do not believe any of you. Everyone has at least tried it. I don't care how much you want me to believe you don't bot, i won't, and i don't care either way so stop trying to prove yourself. Of course i'm generalizing, i'm sure there ARE one or two players that honestly enjoy mining an ore 30000 times. That's what we call an anomoly. We ignore anomolies. Stating a general opinion does not prove anything, therefore i didn't admit to anything. I am not confiming or denying that i'm a 40 year old housewife that uses her CD drive as a cup holder, either.

"omg you're not answering my stupid questions you are a bot!"
Not far from the truth. I don't believe anyone that says they're never tried a bot. It's just a standard thing, everyone does it, nobody admits it. The only people that don't do it are the middle ages housewives and 10 year old kids that download virus[Caution: Executable File] from totallylegitbotsspawn6basecond.com and are scared straight from their bad experience. I've never botted my account and I don't fit in either of your standards of people who haven't botted. GF LOGIC I don't believe you. Logic loop reinstated.
