Intel is doing a lot better then AMD at the moment the only issue is that there making new sockets like crazy. If your gaming a G5 is a much better mouse and you can pick up a ideazon or logitech keyboard fairly cheap now and allow more keys to be pressed at the same time (helps more then you'd think). Only thing I would change from jaerkd00d's build is the case (I hate gamer looking cases) and maybe drop the 8500 for a 8400 (you can easily OC 0.16 if you wanted).

Stick with swamp lizards. I've got the same goal and there the fastest exp at our levels.

Slow and steady, it won't cost you a penny, you'll actually profit. Medium pace (putting all your money back into it), you'll break even. Fast, you'll lose a lot (depends on your method/purchases).

For the teleports maybe add a twist to them (like the RfD apes atoll teleport). Karajama - 2 laws and 2 pineapples (not sure if there F2P, if the not bananas). Neitz - 2 laws and 2 yak hides/hair Piscatoris - kebitt (sp?) tooth or bolt and a law. Sophanem - 2 airs, 2 laws and a bucket of sand. Underground Pass - Ibans staff (uses up on of the charges) and 2 laws.

Once you get slayer mask do Sumona, otherwise stick with Cheadlar. Sumona offers a lot of task which are best suited to the poli dungeon and without slayer mask there not worth doing.

I doubt it as it looks like a very restricted offering by Wetpaint. Either find a free host with php and mysql or buy a domain and some space.

My brother used to do what he called "the obby" a lot. I don't have exact figures, but he and a few friends pre-loot share and trade restrictions gained a lot there. A rough idea is that he stated he used to average just over one item per hour (this was his drops as 3 or 4 friends would split all drops as evenly as possible). Back then it was very profitable, but now with the decrease in sale price and the cost of supplies being only slightly less (he was using guthans 50% of the time) I'm not sure how profitable it would be. O and he used RoW all the time.

Penguins, Bork and waterfiends would be a much cheap way to get that small number of charms.

With your stats yes. With 60+ prayer and 61+ range no, its actually very profitable. Praying green dragons in the CT should be a decent profit at your levels.

Ice trolls + Cannon + Rune c'bow = easily 50k+ exp per hour (I tested it with a whip not c'bow and it was 50k plus). The drops will atleast pay for the cannon balls and ammo, and its possible to get a regular 200k per hour profit there too. The other option is to go avainsies then spend the profit on chins.

In truth only 3 set effects are actually usable for 99% players. Guthans, Veracs and Dharoks. (Normally in that order too) The others aren't worth using. Karils, C'bow is too slow and lacks enchanted bolts. Torag, the hammers are damn terrible and the effect is rubbish. Ahrims, the staff is ok, but you lose out on free runes or achient (sp?) auto casting its not really worth the effect.

Damis is the hardest, since he drains your prayer like crazy and hits pretty hard. But with your levels it should just be a case of mage tanking them all.

Thanks for the reply I just put 7 in there as I was told that the 6.5 was taking into account death (not sure how true that is). The advantage of mine is you can put 6.5 in there and it will auto change all the figures to take this into account. If 6.5 is closer to the true figure then I'll change it to the default. The 1 in 10 again was taken from a post I saw, this like the average can be changed and all the figures will chance accordingly. I've had a quick look over the forums and the death rate is between 1 in 8 to 1 in 10, so 1 in 10 is and acceptable figure, but again you can change this. The super compost is relevant as if your herb dies you loose the cost of the super compost, in the case of ranarrs and snapdragon this isn't too noticeable, but with herbs which cost less (guams for example) then the cost of a super compost then its very relevant. The whole reason I made this spreadsheet is the small things which people forget and how much of an effect they have on the results. Its okay saying the average is x the cost of the seed is y, the value of the herbs is z so the result is (x*z)-y. But when you add death, cost of extras (or essentials depending on the person) and changing prices its not so simple. This is the reasoning behind this, it takes out all hard work, makes it tweakable and shows it in a simple fashion. PS. I've just noticed I've screwed up the sharing settings which is why you can't edit it. I've just fixed this so you can now change the values, like was originally intended. Thanks D Jay99 for making me notice that.

He's F2P #-o

Its like farting on a midget; it might be fun, but its not really a good thing to do. Since you have a decent PC/Laptop to game with game on that, theres very little reason to use 2 PC's to play one game. You can't really compare how well SteamMyGame works on a client since its very dependent on the server. Any how I love my AAO, it looks so good and works so damn well. Acer Aspire One is better :twss:.

Hi all, Introduction I recently had a discussion with someone on the help and advice section over the best herb to plant. They linked to troacctid's very nice, but slightly lacking guide (link) as I was looking at taking into account more variables. Why mine and not troacctid's? Well as I briefly mentioned earlier there was a little things lacking in troacctid's guide/spreadsheet. 1. Lack of auto updating, this means the spreadsheet is always upto date and has accurate data. 2. Death of herbs, troacctid doesn't really take into account this. My spreadsheet takes this into account. 3. Too much colour, I'm one of those people who believes a spread sheet should contain black and white data. Colours distract from the raw data, sure a bit of red here and colour on graphs is needed, but lots of green..... 4. Customization, troacctid's spreadsheet is data with no options to tweak the variables. On mine you can change the death rate, use of super compost and the average crop. Explanation of the values There all self explanatory, but if anyone wants to know who I'm calculating anything don't hesitate to ask. Notes Please do not change any values apart from the ones listed under variables (please do note edit the super compost price either) as it will lead to issues. Enjoy The Link http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key= ... D2ufJuJAWg FAQ Q1) Why include the cost of super compost since everyone uses it? A1) Well when your low level seeds like guams cost less then a 20th of the cost of super compost it adds a big cost. This added to the price of the cheaper herbs (like marrentill) increases your sweet point herb (the one which take it from being a break even harvest to a profitable harvest). Like I said before I want this to be as accurate and as user tweakable as possible. Q2) Where did you get your default figures? A2) From posts here and on the official forums. If you believe them to the wrong or off slightly either post here or change them for yourself on the spreadsheet. Q3) Why isn't x item/feature/function on the spreadsheet and/or graph? A3) The reason its in the beginners guides is that I'm looking for input and suggestions. Post your idea and suggestions here. To Be Added/Tweaked The reasons its in beginners guides Exp Calculations Graphs (everyone likes graphs) Any corrections, recommendations, suggestions or comments welcome. Need I say more? Enjoy, Joe

Well K'ril Tsutsaroth is counted as a Lesser Demon for slayer tasks which allows you to use the black mask or slayer helm for a hefty 15% boost. :twisted: I agree it would offer a little more in the way of a combat related boost. But think of it like this Mining and smithing go hand in hand, but does a higher smithing level help you with mining? compfreek847, again the whole aim of a game is not to rush to the end, its the journey of getting to the end and enjoying whatever you do to get there and whatever you do after. I feel sorry for people who have to play to win. I'd rather spend 30 minutes helping someone out with a quest, chatting with them and having some fun then sit there high alching for 30 minutes. I suppose its each to there own. O and my logic is do whatever you find fun.

I agree this has come on leaps and bounds. For the members telepot; Maybe in the middle bit of land on the Fremennik Isles as its a every annoying location to get to. Sophanem, would be a great help with access to the pyramids. One way wildy teleports to either the Mage Arena or Agility course. Underground pass where you fight/destroy the iban doll. O and add me to the supporter list I love the passion you have about this idea/concept/project.

compfreak847, going on one again. The big thing you miss is if your wanting to train slayer anyway then summoning goes hand in hand with it. The higher your slayer the higher your summoning should be and the higher your summoning the quicker you can slay. Sure if you don't want to slay then you can still train summoning, but as I said in on of the very first posts, slayer monsters (and those which are assigned) have a slightly higher charm drop rate. Sure you can camp waterfiends and rock lobsters, but that soon gets boring slayer offers a way of combining random monsters, combat exp, slayer exp and variety in training. Same goes for money making you can do the same thing day in day out to but the game just gets boring. The games not meant to be grind fest its meant to be a game which you enjoy (hence all the mini games, diversions and random mishaps). Play to have fun, not to win everything.

Either check out truthscapes guide (best one for prayer method IMO) or search the guides section on these forums.

Its a weird one. Programs, generally less will result in quicker loading (less ram usage, smaller registry and less start up item). Data, if your getting close to filling the harddrive then yes deleting your files will speed up your PC (since it allows more room for swap space). If you've got a lot of files in one folder then that folder will load up quicker but generally your PC will perform quicker. Deleting browser cache, well it can make it slower since you have to re-cache all the files again.

57 magic = no 65+ magic = yes

Slayer monsters and assigned monsters drop a slightly higher amount of charms when compared to most non slayer monsters, this added to the quicker kill time the black mask/slayer helm proves, results in a decent number of charms.

I believe its based on your level in the skill, the skill itself, the tool type and a bit of randomness. So its very hard to say you'll get x amount of exp from x item.

To everyone who posted d legs, why? D skirt has the same stats costs a lot less and weighs less. Sure you look more like a girl, but Verac wears a skirt and no-one picks on her ... I mean him
