  1. screen markers, i believe, have been judged as legal. they're useful in any activity where an interface pops up, that 'll you be accessing over and over, such as the bank or ge withdraw interfaces, smithing, ZMI payment, etc
  2. I'm just in a sour mood. http://forum.tip.it/topic/279657-27-oct-2010-emergent-gameplay-letter/ I was poking fun at jagex's idea of the definition of emergent gameplay. though i'm really not sure if shark brewing should be classified as emergent gameplay either. you're using both the shark and the brew exactly how they're supposed to be used, it's just that you can use them faster than you'd initially expect to be possible (i guess?) anyway, venging someone who is in singleway combat obviously makes a fight unfair... is it possible to get any number of people to veng a single person? perhaps we should organize squads of vengers to go all veng random pkers, then everyone would complain that those pkers were getting such a huge unfair advantage it would have to be changed
  3. well that argument falls flat because venging someone doesn't involve you throwing a gnomeball around, so it can't be emergent gameplay. obviously it shouldn't be possible to get help from a friend in a 1v1 area, jagex either overlooked it, can't figure out how to fix it, or is limited by the current game engine, or the people who code it weren't given the latest up to date specifications
  4. they're pretty common in my experience. i just got two as drops today within like five dungeons
  5. i worked the numbers out and even if you brew to 1138 hp from 990, and then are hit for all of your health you'll still only reduce the damage by like 12% overall. to anyone saying "but it says UP TO x%", if this is what they meant, then they could just as easily written "soaks up to 100% of the damage... 0% of the time" these shields will never soak 7%, or 14% of the damage you receive in a hit. chaotic shields aren't even that appealing, i don't understand why they had to 1) apply the soak to only 200+ hits, and 2) apparently change the soak percentages from 10 and 20 to 7 and 14
  6. even if you replace the 10% with 7% and the 20% with 14%, you'll still never soak up to that much of all the damage. it only reduces damage over 200. the people who wrote the knowledge base completely misunderstood the way the shields work and the wording on the equipment screen "absorb magic" is completely misleading as well. that also suggests that X% of all damage received of that style is absorbed
  7. Gl JaGeX with floods of rants. so the damage reduction only applies to any damage over 200...
  8. so you're okay with no void effect for claw specials? or do you use korasi or something? (still not done that quest because i'm not overly impressed... but subject to change)
  9. i do not understand poiint 4. on point 1, assuming you are using the steel titan, you won't be able to heal through the unicorn, which means you will have to bring an alternative source of food. overloads and brews are the obvious choice here, as it condenses the most healing into one inventory spot another point i'd like to discuss... prayers vs curses. i personally use prayers when not using titan, and curses when i am. deflector with barrows gloves, or regular void with defender? edit: sorry, forgot that deflector rules out claws. i've been testing a lot of variants lately
  10. there are two major methods to fletching broad bolts with mousekeys. 1. the 456+ method pressing these keys in sequence moves the mouse to the left, left-clicks, moves to the right, left clicks, and can then be repeated. this essentially uses the left pile on the right pile over and over again 2. the 5+ method pressing the 5 and + keys at the same time in your inventory results in a double click. you are responsible for moving the mouse between the two piles. this method is generally harder than the 456+ method, but most believe it to be faster. i'm not terribly good at it but after like an hour of trying it i was able to fletch as many bolts as i could with the 456+ method, indicating that i could probably go faster than the 456+ method using the 5+ method.
  11. where the hell are the eye of the warrior, eye of the ranger, and eye of the mage rewards?
  12. I have received a raven egg from MTK.
  13. are we to assume the player using this inventory would have overloads, 99 summoning, all chaotic weapons? or are we trying to find the ideal set up *for you* ?
  14. 1948 yews = 340,900 xp 32 willows = 2160 total = 343,060 that's how much xp you have left, yes?
  15. Thank you. :) & Yea', it's a downer. which tree do you want to cut the majority of? eg, there are probably many solutions, and i wouldn't want to tell you the one that had you cut the most normal trees if you prefer cutting yew
  16. i don't understand how so many people interpreted this wrong. he wants to achieve exactly 100m woodcutting experience, through a combination of cutting f2p trees i'll look into it...
  17. smlb? sighted magic long bow i don't recommend it at first, because switching your defender on as well as your cls would be too much work when trying to learn the titan method
  18. when you start out, you'll need many more brews than that. you should probably take at least two more brews than pictured for your first trip. eventually you should shoot for only 5-6 brews. inventory space is precious with titan, so i generally don't use hand cannons there
  19. 'luck' is a term we assign to some event happening... there is a chance of a tossed coin landing on heads, and it's a matter of luck whether or not it does you're lucky if you win the lottery, and it was just chance if you did win at least, that is how i interpret it
  20. it's the logical choice to bring whenever you're using a beast of burden for long trips, and it's just a staple ability for players who want to break into the 'elite' crowd tds are incredibly easy with the unicorn if you're good at killing them, and the unicorn ability doesn't interrupt combat which is cool. i wouldn't regret getting the unicorn.
  21. rapier works pretty well on tds, i can get 32 kills in a >40 minute period (something between 35 and 40 minutes) which equates to about 48 kills per hour excluding banking. i don't have a longsword but am considering getting one because if it is actually superior, i might break 50 kills / hour what's more important at tds is skill in switching, luring, etc
  22. what you have to be careful of here is that you're saying each key would "clean a herb" to do that you'd have to click and move the mouse with each keypress which isn't allowed
  23. they are essentially the same, i believe.
  24. Nope...slowly but surely getting enough pts but not there yet which will you be getting? i'd hold off on tding until you get it since you're so close... well, you might not be i suppose. how many tokens off are you?
