Not going to happen keep venting. Yep its scientific fact just like: You're guaranteed dharok helm every 2.5 hours at barrows. Every 12 hours you get a visage from frost dragons or a godsword from godwars. 4mil/hr is guaranteed to think otherwise would be ignorant. :arrow: :rolleyes: I like to read the comments posted below serious news articles at cnn.com. They are utter garbage. Nothing quite like reading an article on the chilean miners and then the comment at the bottom is: "Obama the socialist is paying for the rescue! $%^@ obama!"

12-Oct-2010 - Charm Sprite Hunting
What Bob-X the new shark brewing? I love how evey bug in the game that appears in the last year or so that is removed is moaned about. What I would like is that every time the dumb summons gets stuck on a corner and zaps to your new location that it doesn't interupt every single command including banking. That costs me more time then some stupid bug that I never bothered to figure out. Heres to not changing to Bob-X again. :thumbup:

Slayer Helm and accumulator?
It works. Or half of RS would be up in arms.

Ivy Tree Cutting Help.
Try the sawmill to the east of varrock castle. Its supposed to be the fastest xp in the game. 80-90k I have heard.

Chaotic longsword versus Chaotic rapier (Stab)
KBD and waterfiends are too perfect examples where I would say the higher stab accuracy is critical. I have simulated a Crapier by wearing a shield and in both cases switching back to a defender increased my accuracy considerablely.

Chaotic Rapier vs Longsword
I only buy chaotic weapons for one purpose. Kill something. You right, you shouldn't get one if you thought you were going to be able fish with it too. Maybe the rapier does that idk... put some feathers on the end, dip it in the water, and out comes some trout.

200M in all Skills
RC is 60k an hour. Agility is 100k an hour. Mining is 100k an hour, more than that if you do LRC superheat(considering the speed of the two other skills). RC is the best thing to use lamps on, no matter what. I'm fairly sure that if you aren't great at merchanting or are opposed to it it would be much more efficient to kill frost dragons/TD's for your RC xp(at around 40k xp an hour). Where are you gettin the xp/h rates? From his behind as usual. 65-70k at the barbarian course is reasonable. 50-55k at the living caverns is reasonable.

Flaming
These forums used to be informative many years ago. Since Jagex released the knowledge base, tipit has become simply a place to deposit opinions. Opinions lead to debates, debates lead to arguments, arguments lead to flaming. Alot of people also have developed egos over the years that leads them to exaggerate data (like xp per hour). Some even like to tell everybody how to play the right way (aka their way).

Zolo's Shattered Heart
Never heard of this statue bag. Is it new? I'll have to look into it.

Chaotic staff or Farseer kite?
Yea I was hoping to do some maging in minigames, what puts me off the kite is i don't know how fast it degrades if it absorbs damage, any insight on that would be good. I really don't want it to lose 10% charge every game of castle wars <_< Probably close to 10% an hour. My CLS goes down about 10% an hour. Arcane costs too much and no damage reduction. For 70 mil I could get 350 hours of the farseer kite which is the better shield. Thats alot of time maging.

Im lost! Back after 2 years o.O
Kids just need big numbers. Dumbest update in the history of runescape. Soul wars is the new pest contol. Its faster than pest contol since they nerfed it. Teams are stacked though so pest control is still the better game. Stealing creation is good too because of the rewards. Dungeoneering is the newest skill, its combat based so it may be fun for you. It will unlock the best weapons in the game for you so its very useful. Summoning is a money sink that caters to skilling and frankly its just something to do. Its rewards are dubious if you consider the time/gp investment to get them. Banking with a yak is about the pinnacle of summoning. Quests, there are always new quests upon new quests. Shoot for the grandmaster ones they generally have big payouts.

Is this true?
It sets everything back to 0 and refunds all your tokens. You can only do it once. I have used it already and it works fine.

200 hours of fishing.
Yeah, I've done a little fishing off a pier in the atlantic ocean. The most excitement I ever got was that a manta ray ripped my line up because I apparently was doing something wrong. The concept of fishing is basically the same in RS. Cast your line, wait alot, and reel it in. Runescape just does it in one click with ridiculous ease.

The conquest game is actually really easy, the AI of the pests isn't all that great and you have regenerate so you can wall most of them with your champion. Just watch out for the Ravagers (I think it was), they're the only threats to your team in my opinion. Wall? Regenerate? The things have 3x hp as you. Most of your doods get one hit and pests get to move 2 pieces a turn as opposed to your one. I'd send that content back to QA with a little note attached "fix me fools".

It was cool until I got to the conquest part of the game. Gee thats slightly unbalanced in the pest favor. :rolleyes: I guess I will be waiting for the guide on that.

Efficiency
I don't know this magical noob who runs around telling everybody that cutting magics and fishing sharks is the best way to get xp or money. But, I do see lots of players actually doing that in game. Some of them are DIY players, other are little kids, some actually enjoy the activity, and some are afking. Its not surprising that somebody would get on these forums who does that and suggest it to somebody else looking for ideas. But I'm not going to go all clown-time on the thread with "JESUS YOUR DOING IT WRONG. L2B_EFFICIENT". Ha, I was wondering how such wide spread butchery of the word began. This may be it. I was under the impression that RS wiki has decent information, but clearly this is a hack application of something copied from a freaking economics book. This is the applied math approach to the age old problem of: Do I keep making what I make, do I make something else, do I move all manufacturing to china and cash out with my golden parachute? The implicit statement that nobody here seems to read is that you will be doing the thing that gets you your "value of time" all the time. Your only evaluating the impact on your bank statement with regards to not doing it for something else. Nothing more. Its about making gp, not about fun. For a video game that is just ridiculous; it's monotonous, it's job-like, and without a doubt its not necessary. I work to live not live to work. The advice that nobody wants here: "Live a little and stop finding excuses to live at the tormented demons or frost dragons." Good news, I'm out. I've had enough jollies here. You clowns can have fun writing another 3 pages of idiotic arguments that will just magically vanish. :wink:

200 hours of fishing.
Looks like your wrong. Some people do enjoy it. Not hard to imagine though since its a popular hobby in real life. Some of those professional sport fishers look like they rake in dough by judging from their fancy boats.

Chaotic Rapier vs Longsword
Come rapier fan-boys, you're slacking here and this thread was about to make it to page 2. Don't worry though you left me some gems of insight on the last page that makes me want to comment. Oh no doubt in my mind that he could say something like that. :lol: I mean afterall when a monster has infinite slash and stab defense then you'll never hit with either a longsword or a rapier. So having the zeros flash up sooner with the rapier is a definite advantage. You can use a defender with CLS. Advantage is mute. Heretical idea? Definitely, since CLS must be used with shield is biblical law. So sayeth the tabulated data sheets which basis can not be questioned. I won't mention that CLS has a stab attack, I promise. :-#

Kalphite Queen Head vs. KBD Head
They are rare drops. Its just luck as to which one you get first. I got 3 kq heads before I ever got a kbd. Neither is more prestigous than the other. Get both if your into showing off. Infact, get the whole collection. I am kinda working on that. I just need a kurask head and crawling hand and my trophy basement is done.

Chaotic staff or Farseer kite?
Shield would be nice for PVP minigames. I intend to get one for soul wars where I mage harass the clowns that think they own at the game because they all pile in one side to get easy zeal. The staff is so so. I guess if you wanted to use it on slayer it would be okay, but sol is decent enough and you can save some major runes with battle robes.

Maging Abbysal demons
Green, blue, or bronze dragons will break even. Abyssals will loose money. Don't waste your time getting dungeoneering for the sole purpose of maging frost dragons. Frost dragons have decent magic def so you'll go through extended periods of not hitting.

Efficiency
Actually, by clown definition (stated throughout this thread and forums) you have to big monster hunt and make 4mil/gp an hour to do anything efficiently. Examples of things that can't be done without 4mil gp/hr: slayer with choatic rapier, overloads, cannon, construction with mahogony planks and no sc hammers, and herblore leveling making unsellable extreme pots. Unfortunately, I'm not into big monster hunting, therefore I am "Golvellius the Effective" and not "Golvellius the Efficient".
