Miscellenia is a brilliant (albeit small) way by Jagex to remove cash from the game. You get raw material at a rate cheaper then market value, in fact you're buying them from the game, and you make money doing so. Big negative effect of that is the dropping of market prices. Personally I have 10 workers on maples and where I used to be able to sell the 150 gp ea, now I have a hard time selling them 100 gp ea. Because of bird nests as bonus resource, the market is flooded with maples, causing the massive drop in price. But Miscellenia shouldn't give out resources too easily. Silver currently is hard to mine because of it's pretty high crafting xp. Pure essence is not that hard to get and a good source of money for lower level members. Oak I could see happening with it's recent introduction in construction. They purposely chose a wood type that people wouldn't think of hoarding before the update, but now that construction is in game for a longer time already it wouldn't hurt to get it from Miscellenia. You might even create an option to have them cut into planks already for the normal cost, saving a lot of time walking to the sawmill or having your butler do that. Secondary ingredients are a good option too, even though it could make herblore too easy getting both herbs and seconds from Miscellenia. Limpwurt roots and berries could be put under the farm workers, maybe snape grass too. Hardest to get second though, (and needed in pretty big quantities) are unicorn horns and I see no possibility of getting those from there.

That's a really tough question... As a runescape player I usually go solo, so if I'm looking for xp solo minigames all the way. But sometimes I'm in a mood where I just want to destroy and own other people, so a good game of castlewars makes my day then. Besides, if you are a high level and know the ways of cw you could win the game by yourself. Just go make a quick score and then get your own flag before they score, not easily done, but possible in games with 3-6 players on each team. If you would force me to pick one minigame as my favourite, it would be cw.

This is hardly a suggestion, it's more like a rant by someone that plays cw in full rune and thinks it's unfair he gets owned by a mage :roll: I'm 94 mage and barrage from time to time in cw and if I have a good team against me I have a very tough time getting/defending the flag. Once they switch to full dragonhides or Karils I start splashing (even in full Ahrims) and they get away without much trouble. Sure if I'm up against a bunch of full runers I have the easiest game of my life, but that's the way the triangle is supposed to work. Quit complaining if you came unprepared for battle, mage beats melee and so it should be.

Hmm I checked the existing/mistaken bugs, but looked under random events only, didn't check with known skill bugs. Ah well, I guess it's supposed to be like this then, seems kind of strange to me though. For five years it's impossible to get two costume sets and now they don't seem to care about it anymore :?

I already was a proud owner of a full mime costume and with the release of the costume room I was glad to be able to store it there. But I just got another mime event which gave me a mask :shock: You used to get 500 gp if you already had all emotes and clothes, but now I have an extra mask :) No pic no proof, so here you go: Must be a little something Jagex missed while designing the costume room. I'm thinking about reporting it as a bug, not sure about it though.

Chickens are birds as far as I know, so are ducks and probably chompies and terrorbirds too. Help and advice board next time :o

Not knowing how combat levels work on rs and remembering hobgoblins as an easy target from Baldur's gate :wall: I must have been combat level 10 or something by then since I remember losing my precious full bronze, amulet of accuracy and the air talisman from the rune mysteries quest. That bothered me a lot, I thought I could never finish that quest now :oops:

Go to the kebab seller in Pollineveach and ask him to buy hot sauce. Use the hot sauce on camel trough. Wait a little and the camel will poop. Use three buckets on dung. Alternatively if you have a camulet you can ask a camel for some. Thanks, I did that, but for some reason the first dung I got was green and I couldn't touch it :? I have some now though :)

How do I collect the camel dung? When I use a bcuket on it it says I don't want to go near it :?

An added bonus with the 99 capes is that you no longer need your obby cape since they have the same stats. Selling obby cape :D btw, should I be able to use my cape emote without the hood? I can with my fletching cape and quest cape. I also get the stat bonus without wearing the hood, meaning I can wear a normal helmet with my cape.

That's an amazing amount of clues you've done! Even though I love to do clues I seriously doubt level 1 clues make you that much profit. Sure you get god pages, but those prices are pretty low at the moment. I have no idea of black (g) and (t) prices, but it would take ages to get a full set of that anyways. This might be an idea for lower levels to make some money, but personally I'd rather craft some nats in that time. Also you mentioned shadeburning as a source for level 3 clues. Yes, the silver chests give level 3 clues, but about 1 in 100 chests. Your best bet for level 3 clues is doing slayer tasks.

Pinguin333 -- 112 combat I've tried three times in the last couple of days and making it to Jad is just plain easy, but I guess I'm not quick enough to make it through the prayer switches. I might try again if the 99 capes update proves to be worhtless or doesn't come next week.

Pinguin333 -- p2p random number generators ftw :)

This is nothing but a salespitch to complaining parents. Either the kids themselves show this to their parents, or they find it themselves browsing the site their kid is addicted to. The shortsighted parents will go "Hmm, it's educational, everything will be fine". This example, however good their intentions are, is pretty much made up. I'm sure you can find somewhere on the site or in the rules that they advice you to take brakes, but the entire game is designed to play as long as possible. If they really meant this they could make it so that you can't be logged in for more then 2 hours at a time or at least have a message pop up warning you that you should take a break for your own health. Also the bit about friendship and teamwork isn't entirely true. You can play this entire game by yourself, find a partner for the quests on the forum and then get back into social isolation. The only thing most people learn on rs is how economy works. With rares and semi-rares, raw materials and the time it takes to gather them in comparison to money gained it's a good experience for kids.

The same stuff you would get from pickpocketing a master farmer for a while plus some tree seeds.

It's about 30% extra, but has a minor disadvantage of taken your buckets away. Now all I have to do is figure out where I'm gonna get 5.2k battlestaves :x :wall:

Its not "Him" or "his" ,its their movies I wouldn't say the the holy grial quest is a refference to monty python's holy grial unless they replace the black titan standing on the bridge with a lethal rabbit :D The lumberjack on Miscelenia (if true) is no doubt a Monty Pyton The black titan is very Monty Python. In the first part of the movie King Arthur comes across one actually on a bridge. He asks him to join the knights of the round table, but the knight stays silent and attack Arthur as soon as he tries to cross the bridge. King Arthur defeats him by cutting off his swordarm, but the knight refuses to give up and Arthur ends up cutting off his other arm, his legs and finally his head. Even then the knight refuses to acknowledge defeat and call Arthur a coward for walking past him and threatens to knaw on his ankles and bleed on him :lol:

i dunno, thats still a realistic thing in midevil times i guess, even today... like idiana jones and stuff... Hmm a holy tablenapkin doesn't sound that realistic to me :lol: There's the lumberjack in Miscelenia too, his examine says "He's a lumberjack and he's ok..."

I'd hate a cape for "just" 200 qp, the cape is about all quests complete and that means your list should be completely green. I'm not sure how many qp DT, RFD and MEpt2 give, but allowing less qp then maximum to wear the cape means people wouldn't have to complete some of the hardest quests to wear it. My thoughts on the release of a new quest is simple, if you're wearing the cape it returns to your inventory. If your inventory is full it gets dropped, which is no problem cause you can pick it back up or it can be returned to you upon completing the last quest or from an npc. You cannot wear the cape again untill you complete the new quest. Seems simple enough to me.

With energy pots it's more like 60-65k per hour, never failing from 74 and on. It was a while ago that I trained there, but I seem to remember getting randoms there. Especially the evil chicken ticked me off since combat forces your gree-gree out of your hands making you human.

Ogre bows?

When I read this the first thing that came to mind was "I have to change my combat training". I'm currently pretty balanced out in combat stats, but with the coming of lvl 99 capes, getting 99 attack or strength asap before leveling any other combat skill could make a significant difference. I can't imagine what bonusses other capes would give. Most skill have their highest requirement to make something between lvl 80 and 90, far below the the xp amount for lvl 99. I mean I can make bow and arrow at level 85 fletching, what bonus could a lvl 99 cape offer me. Even if it were something like string-x (which is very doubtfull), why would I use it? I already have level 99!

Just posted this on the official topic about todays update...

I just noticed something else... making mind bars drains magic levels like crazy. I made 3 bars, my magic is 25 from 94 now. I guess I'm walking instead of teleing for a while :(

Anybody notice the hint for an elemental workshop III?
