The chance seems to be really random, I got my big bass within 3 full loads (only kept bass and seaweed), while my friend has been big net fishing for 50k xp and still didn't get one :? I know I won't get a stuffed shark anytime soon because I'm not planning to raise my construction anymore since I made 67. So I think you're right, mounted bass is the best trophy :D

I'm kinda hoping for a lame quest with a 5k construction xp reward :oops: EDIT: I knew I was forgetting something! When you can build a throne room with a lever, the house owner can make the entire house PvP. I think they should make it so that you can't kick people out of the house during this time because of poison deaths.

+3 if butler makes it :D Somehow my demon butler only makes tea that gives me +2 construction :(

Happened to me aswell and reported it as a bug. It's not a bug though, just look through your telescope a couple more times. Theres like 6 different messages you can get from "It doesn't seem to work underground" to "It's full of stars!". Pretty pointless if you ask me.

Yea I noticed it just now, I feel so lucky I reached 67 cons a few hours ago without paying my demon butler. 8k noted oak, 300 teak and 200 mahogany logs made into planks without payment :D Oh and if you get fed up with your butler asking for money, this works nicely: I'm thinking of rehiring that nagging and whining cook again, just for this :twisted:

Heh, I just had some fun with luring my butler in the trap: Moral of the story: As a butler don't nag me about money or you'll go in the cage :P

Just duel ring to arena, shout fun duel, you're killed in 3 hits and your stats are restored. Easy as pie :D

Don't move your study seriously! I got that message that it didnt work underground too, but since my study was on the second floor I reported it as a bug :oops: Now I tried my telescope again and it seems it's just random messages out of a total of like 6.

You should pm Leesters to put this in the archive of knowledge, I know I'm bookmarking this. Great job, thanks man.

ooh demon throne at 96 construction :lol:

Grrr I hate random chances :x I've been to basilisk long enough to get 4 mystic hats, 2.5k waters, 600 natures and over 100k cash (from drops and alches), but still no basilisk head :evil: This shoudn't be called skill hall but random luck of the drop hall. Worst thing is: I have 2 skill halls, so I need 2 heads. Ugh, I'm going to try my luck at Kurask for a while, got them for slayer anyways :(

Yes I know the latest thing is construction, but it's related to that. Since I've been cutting a lot of oaks lately (wonder why :wink: ) I got a lot of tree seeds, including 2 calquat seeds. But when I tried planting them in a plantpot it said I needed 72 farming to do that. Nothing wrong with that you'd say, but I already have 2 planted calquat seeds in my bank while my farming level isn't and never has been 72! So you used to be able to plant tree seeds in plantpots without level requirements, but you can't anymore (which kinda sucks since it now takes 2 bank spaces instead of 1 :( )

Theres a problem with the beer barrel which I found yesterday: you can't take them outside with you :shock: I tried it yesterday with my greenmans ale, filled up my inventory in my kitchen, but when I teled out my inventory was empty :x I had some friends come over and they helped themselves to my beer, but they couldn't take it with them either. It seems you can only use the beers inside your house :cry:

The portals being cheap teleports is only partly true since you need to teleport into your house aswell, which costs 1 law. Using a portal that provides a 1 law teleport spell would be anything but free since you already used a law in getting there. The portals to ardougne and watchtower are free after 200 uses since you pay 100 times the runes cost (which is 200 laws) and use 1 law to get to your house. Note: These numbers only count if you are the only one using the portals. When you got some friends/clan coming over they can all use the portal, which makes it a nice investment. Also the glory mounted on the wall can be used infinitely by yourself and your friends. The best 3 portals would therefor be watchtower, ardougne and canifis, with your house located in relleka. This way you can barrow with a lyre in your inventory (takes only 1 inventory space), tele to relleka, enter your house, pray, tele to canifis, bank and back to barrows. Man, are we going to be flooded with barrows armor or what? EDIT: Wow that's even better! With those tablets you can make your house in Yanille, so you won't need that portal.

How the hell do you NOT spend that much money? You need to buy a house, materials, new rooms, everything requires cash! Unless you build clay fireplace or limestone brick fountain all the time this skill is a moneydrain. Could you tell us what you spend the 110k on and how it got you to level 51?

Well it seems the 24 hours are up and what do you know the highscores show 1.7M xp for the number 1 :shock: I can't imagine the amount of money that he spent to get it but it seems noone expected it to be this high. When you feel like spending big this skill is pretty easy.

Thank you Mr. Negative :roll: Just checked the highscores and the highest level is 33 already!

So the new skill is here, rs is still loading for me, so I wondered what this release would do to the highscores. Then I wondered how many players will pull an all-nighter to get and keep a nice spot in the new highscores. So here's the actual question that is also the title of the topic: What will the highest xp in construction be 24 hours from now? My guess is at least 200k+ since a lot of people have stocked up on mahogany and teak and are willing to throw a pile of money at this new skill. Post your guesses here. No price, no contest, just some friendly guesswork. Enjoy :D

Sorry to see you go, your cabbage art rocks! Good luck in the real world, it's a nasty place sometimes and doesn't have nearly enough cabbage.

I have to disagree. At 75 agility, you stop falling at the Ape Atoll course so you never need to use food. This means you can carry a full load up super energy restores and not have to worry about Pkers and them wasting your food or killing you. I vote Ape Atoll to be the best Agility experience you will find in the game (after level 75). Finally! I thought I was the only one trying to make others in RS aware of this fact. I trained at the Monkey course from 73 to 81 agility (I think I stopped failing at lvl 74). With the pots it's about 62-64k xp per hour and you can stay there for hours. You certainly have my vote :D

Even though the Arena is a lot of fun, in terms of xp it's really really bad. Since the arrow moves once per minute, it takes some 17 hours to get 1000 tickets. Add the xp you get by reaching the arrow to the 320k you get by selling the tickets, divide it by 17 hours and you'll see that you only get 5.4k xp per hour. Even without energy pots you get almost 10 times more xp at the monkey or wilderniss course. If you really dislike training agility you're better off doing an hour every now and then on the monkey or wilderniss course then you would be getting tickets in the Arena.

I really have to disagree on this because I've done the Monkey course from 72 to 81 agility. Sure at 72 you hardly fail (from 74 and onwards you don't fail ever), so I can't really comment on that, but the xp is as good as in the wilderniss. I used energy pots and got 60-62k xp per hour, 44k without pots. On the subject of food, there's a pineapple plant right next to the course which spawns 1 every lap, so 8 hp per lap. Also a fishing spot is right there, I think it's a shark spot so if you bring a harpoon you can stay there indefinately. Also the altar is quite close so you can pray rapid heal all the time. The remote location is only true if you didn't finish the monkey subquest yet. After the quest you can teleport there, all you need is a banana, 2 fires, 2 waters and 2 laws. Getting the Ninja Monkey Greegree isn't that hard and you need to get it anyway to finish the monkey subquest.

The reason slayer isn't a popular choice is that it will make a handfull of people insanely rich when the new weapon first comes out. When the Dark Beasts came out all level 90 slayers camped there for days in the hope of a rare drop. As you can see people want themselves to be that rich so they vote for what they think they can accomplish to get the weapon. Nr 1 in the vote is single combat monster drop, so you won't have to share your newly found riches. Nr 2 is through skills, now the price wouldn't be controlled by drop rarity but by the number of people being able to make the item and if you look in the highscores every skill has loads of people with lvl 99 so the price will stabilize pretty quickly at an acceptable level. Nr 3 is through quests, there was a poll a while ago that showed that qp have a normal distribution (not counting f2p of course) and everytime a new quest comes out you see people posting 'if the reward is good I'll do the quest'. With recipe for disaster one of the best quest rewards ever came out so people will probably have done all the required quests to get it and think they can do it again for a new weapon reward. Personally I think new weapons should be hard to get and preferably have a high lvl wielding requirement. Hardest to get would be a rare drop from a monster not everyone can fight, i.e. a high lvl slayer monster.

I've made a lot of battlestaves and the only thing that is timeconsuming (and will drive you crazy) is the worldhopping for the plain battlestaves. A lot of times you'll find the entire stock being sold out and continously worldhopping really isn't all that fun. If you plan on making a lot of battlestaves I suggest you buy the plain ones first, so when you get fed up with worldhopping you don't have over 200 orbs left in your bank. All different battlestaves high alch for 9300 gp, so you make a profit of 1.8-2k per staff. The best crafting xp is making air battlestaves, but the obelisk is located in the wilderniss. When I made my air orbs I've never been bothered by pkers or poison spiders for that matter, but I do suggest you bring your ectovial just in case. Also, bring the amount of runes you need per trip, no more, so if you do get killed all you lose are some runes and some orbs. Oh, watch your health carefully because you need to run through Black demons and they hit up to 14s.

Do Burthorped ones count? That has to be like 12 birds or something. My best tasks are Bronze dragons. I allways get them in amounts under 20 so I like doing them, especially since I got a d skirt of one :D
