So the new handcannon shots RC'ing pouches?!? Can't believe they just used the medium pouch icon for it.

With a good PC clan your looking at 2 to 2 30 minutes per game which works about 7 to 8 hours the higher being the more likely as you will lose the odd game and some will take the full 2 30 minutes. PS if you really want to argue if the void/waterfiend point you could just simply say use void melee until they become non aggressive then use void range.

mmm, sounds interesting although 1 screw up and your no longer level 3 as you have to always hit 0. Possible in theory, but the chances of anyone pulling it off.... well there extremely low. Your talking hours of siting there waiting for poison.

Love the idea can't wait to see how the gwd and other bosses come along.

Any news on the special attack?

Wow this is early for Jagex (time of the day wise). I wouldn't be surprised to see quite a few systems updates or another small update ( :pray: ). Dragon pickaxe might finally make mining more interesting for me :P

Slay as in slayer monsters? I think its 25 for the mirror shield. Of course you'd have trouble with higher leveled tasks, but thats recommended not required.

It he does 500 casts per hour then its about 1.05m per hour at yesterdays prices buying all at med.

If you get a clan about 8 hours if not 8 to 10 hours.

What seems to be that its updating, but its comparing the prices to the same update (or there that close the prices aren't actually changing). So the pricing is right, but the % increase/decrease is wrong.

Yes. Any monster that can be safespotted void is better.

That was Moses you idiot.That gets fixed in the bugfix the following week. Maybe. Best quote ever. I don't see how the summoning thing is a problem if there fixing it soon. I brought about 8m in shards a week ago coverted them to shards (cost me 22.4 per shard). Once you hit about 40 summoning its much cheaper to simply convert pouches to shards. At this moment the best pouch is 22.76 gp/shard which is still over 2 gp cheaper.

Sonic 3D the worst game I've played that I can remember.

Hi, In the past Jagex have tweaked the system numerous times to counter rule breakers. Now larger system updates have almost completely wiped out the old ways of breaking the rules. With the recent shop stock revert I was wondering if it would be possible to revert some of the other anti-rule breaker tweaks. The first which came into my thoughts was the wilderness ditch. At the time it was very controversial as it reduced RC'ers profit and exp as well as a lot of the risk associated with going near the wilderness (one misclick and your risking all but your best times). With the removal of the true wilderness the was no real reward for lurers, then the warning signs reduced the chances of an innocent player getting killed by a rev. So whats its use now? Well some will argue revs are still dangerous, which is quite true but they tend to stick around level 5 or higher. Others will say what if you turn off the warning by accident? Well you have to click accept the risk a few times before you even allowed to confirm you don't need it. To me its just a relic of a bygone area which only has a purpose on bounty hunter worlds. The second and most influential update which came into my head once I thought about the topic was ..... rune essence. [hide=Back story]Back in the days before trade limits existed and bots out numbered players atleast 5 to 1 there were a lot of rune essence mining bots. The trouble was there were so many bots back then and not too many members who worked on the low level skill options. This used to keep raw materials low, supplies high and profit margins high. Jagex decided they should aim directly at the resource gathers, they did mass bans on WC'ers, flax pickers and fishers. The only trouble was the rune essence miners where tricky to tell bot from player as both rarely stayed still longer enough to talk to and both generally mined for long stretches. WC'ers, flaxers and fishers mixed between F2P and P2P (flax pickers being exclusively P2P), but rune essence miners were all F2P. To fix this issue they split the essence; F2P got normal, P2P got both. This caused a lot of prices to change massively (it affected miners, RC'er, mages, fletchers and so on in a chain reaction) less low cost materials which massively affected the market.[/hide]With the trade limits RTW trading is next to impossible which leads to the question; Why can't we remove pure essence? What about runes which need pure essence? All the current methods of RC'ing could be converted to use rune essence as they once did. You may ask what about the price difference? Simply use the higher price and let the market decide what to do. Or wouldn't that harm/people with a stock of normal/pure essence? Yes and no its simply the opposite of what happened when all the normal essence was converted into pure essence. I'm after your views on these 2 and well as other possible reverts. Not only that but would these reverts be possible after such a long time and how would they affect the game. Thanks for reading and lets discuss, Joe EDIT: Added another which hit_u_ranger just pointed out Other forgotten updates Update: MSB (Magic shortbow) special bar usage increase. Story: At one point in the game the special was thought too powerful as it allowed 2 uses per bar so it was increase to allow only 1 use per bar. Why its safe to revert: With the introduction of the dark bow and the crossbow update MSB went from being the top range PvP and training weapon to one of the least used. Theres very little reason why, when compared to dark bow, hand cannon and enchanted bolts, 2 uses per bar would be overpowered any more. Update: Dark bow special bar usage increase Story: When Jagex first introduced the extreme and new super potions players complained dark bow was a lucky 1 spec kill (51-51 being the new max using the extra range potion) or an almost guaranteed 3 turn kill (spec - restore special - spec). Why its safe to revert: The removal of the extreme potions from PvP hindered the reason for this update obsolete. The only possible reason would be a team 2 hitting corp.

It updates too fast and seems to delete the previous days record. Its been happening quite a lot since the RT5 update. Luckily I brought my sgs at 58.7 the other week.

The only thing that annoys me (with the exception of a few small RT5 issues) is that they are slowing killing player/player interaction for trades. Before the GE I would always stop by the general store to see if there was any bargains to be had (a few times I made a killing or got the item I was looking for). Now with the exception of junk theres no reason to use a general store and the lower the pre GE rune amounts (I'm 99% sure the zammy mage had more then 100 bloods in stock) gives no reason to use them.

That corpse could be a dragonkin (hence the pile of bones near the neck being it head), the large bones being its protector. The Fremennik connection seems more logical though

Assuming 100% is the total cost of the casts. You can take of this cost as 10% of the damage. At todays costs its just over 2.1k per cast. (2100/110)*100 is about 1.9k since the saving from the 10% bonus (~200) is greater then the saving from the water runes (96) then from a money point of view its better. Then you have the 10% quicker kills from a time point of view. O and I'd take void mace if you have it as the prayer bonus will come in handy (6+ is enough to warrant using the 5% magic prayer imo). EDIt its about 338 crimson per 1k of casts (without the 10% bonus)

0.6 second delay between switching prayers and removed/moved some of the safespots. Bandos is about on par with void for max hits, but 10% accuracy of void counters the prayer bonus.

Whats your cash flow? Mathematically its cheaper to get the 10% bonus then save the 96gp in water runes. But if you can't afford to miss the 96gp per cast then you shouldn't be barraging

Which language/application? You can use cURL, google docs, excel, etc to achieve this.

Both are note worthly. I too had some back luck with the iron bars (took me about 3 trips). I think it would be better to just include taking the iron bars to skip the whole smithing process. [Crew Edit: these have both been added and you have both been credited. Thanks!]

Most cost effective is void + GS. It costs me just a super set, 1 prayer potion and a little bit of food. The rest is pure profit, not runes, no ammo and no degrading. Any speed you lose on kill time is made up with the faster kill count and faster ahrim/karil kills.

You don't need any capes to charge or cast CoG with the mace (I tested it about a week ago out of curiosity). It last just over 6 minutes (400 seconds I believe) and you get a message as soon as it disappears. Personally I would pray magic whenever your luring and if there are more then 4 snips out (3 if your using the veracs method). The rest of the time only pray magic (or any other time) if you absolutely need to (ie the hybrids run to you [this will cause prime to attack that area which will include you], supreme comes low or prime suddenly doesn't like you)

This is pretty much the best void setup void melee helm salve (e) void top void bottoms void gloves dragon boots berserker (i) trimmed 99 cape-firecape-god cloak Attack/defence training; whip + rune defender Strength training: sara sword Inventory Well this depends entirely on how long you want to stay there. In short super attack/strength pots, bunyip pouches (1 does of summoning potion per extra pouch), teleport, a spec weapon and maybe some emergency food. Spec weapon EE or SGS are the best (I was getting over healed when in void with a bunyip and sgs). Keep piety on all the time and the moment you hit 0 prayer points recharge your prayer, even if you in the middle of a fight. For max exp per hour pot every 5 minutes.
