If you wait for the next patch before levelling you'll need 20% less xp to get to 80 :P. Hopefully it'll be here next week.

Oblivion isn't an online game, it's a 1st (or 3rd) person single player RPG. FPS stands for First Person Shooter and is what CoD is. Assuming you're looking for a first person RPG then really the Elder Scrolls series is the best choice. Morrowind and Oblivion are both very good games.

There's still "two weeks" left in the month as December doesn't start until Wednesday so I imagine the quest will be on the 30th. A bit of a shame having to wait another week for this but oh well, December should be good anyway :).

27 golds -> 1 Blue. Means that to get if you make anything higher than Granite crab (level 16) you'll get more experience from the golds than you would the blue charm. At 9 greens -> 1 Blue anything above magpies (at 47) you'd get more xp from the greens than blues. Trading 3 crimsons to 1 blue you'll need to make Smoke Devils (61) or better to get better xp with the crimsons. This is assuming you're making Geyser titans (highest level blue). So yeah, unless you're making familiars way under your level the 3x trade up seems fair to me. With Gold -> Crimson the cutoff point is bullants at level 40. Although the cutoff for greens -> Crimsons is 80 and the hydra.

They need to add more untradable rewards to skills, such as the extreme pots. The things don't even have to be better than current items, for example some equivalent armour to barrows or whatever however it is easily obtainable and doesn't cost as much but requires 90+ smithing to get. These are the updates that Jagex need to add to the game.

His point is, everyone will trade gold/green/crimson for blue, and no one will make gold/green/crimson familiars. The economy would naturally sort that out, if it happens. Blue secondaries would be much higher than they are now, and Crimson secondaries would be cheaper (since no one's actually going to use them anymore). Or, another solution would be; Don't make it so that you get exactly the same xp with better charms. A simple fix would be make a 50% markup on the amount of charms required, making it unworthy of making Crims -> Blues 3 crimsons gives more experience than 1 blue, same with 3 greens/crimsons etc. (Only exception is talon beasts etc. for crimsons).

I didn't find that race boring at all so I have no idea what you're talking about there. Was very surprised they bought Alonso in but I guess after Massa got stuck behind and couldn't "interfere" with Webber's race they didn't have much choice. Well driven by Vettel, he's had an unlucky season and only made a couple of mistakes all season, much less than Alonso and Hamilton. I'm really glad Alonso didn't win it to be honest, never been a huge fan of him. Despite what he did after the race his post race interview was good and fair play to him for what he said. I'd rather Webber have won the championship but I'm happy with Vettel getting it. Will be interesting to see what happens at Red Bull next year, I'm not sure how Webber will be there next year as it'll almost certainly be Vettel's team. I can't wait until next season, why does it have to 4 months away? :(

Jagex changed hits to constitution so they could add things such as armour which boosts max life points etc. So raising the skill to 120 is not needed.

Wireless headphones generally have bad quality from my experience with them. I'm not sure on Wii's support for such things, I don't even believe headsets work and you have to use the wiispeak for talking don't you? (And I don't even know if blops supports that).

Terrible unorganised bank picture.

Instead of being tradable I think a better "solution" would be for that you could trade charms up at an NPC. Something like 3 Gold -> 1 Green, 3 Green -> 1 Crimson, 3 Crimson -> 1 Blue. That way you don't "gain" any experience from doing this, you're just speeding up the process and making all those gold charms worth picking up. 9 Gold per crimson and 27 gold per blue seems fair to me.

Moved this topic to Blogscape as it's more suited there :). Good luck!

I imagine killed him just before he reset for the day then went back.

That's awesome! Congratulations. Are you planning on continuing to train the skill? If so do you have any particular goals in mind?

Well done to Kekek for his amazing achievement which won him Achievement of the Month for October 2010 in what was a very close poll. Going to try and keep this here for another month and hope we get more nominations this time round, so please nominate anyone who you think achieved something great this month. All nominations are welcome. And if you'd like to make a suggestion and how to improve this (such as maybe anonymous nominations) then let me know. Cheers

It may be simplistic, but I think the best way to seperate WoW and RS is WoW = group play; RS = solo play They're not even similar in game play, ignoring solo/group things. They are seriously completely different games. It's like comparing Mario Kart to something like Forza as they're both racing games.

Now I want to get my own Sneaks instead of a chaotic :(

They are completely different games and any comparisons between the two are often done by people who have no idea of one of the other. It's entirely possible to play both as to me I play them both for completely different reasons and get different sorts of fun out of each of them. WoW will not be free for a very long time, why would it need to be when they have 13M subscribers a month? Thus making this discussion fairly pointless in the long run. LOTRO wasn't doing well, hence why it went free.

So does anyone know what Spirit Cape does yet? Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

Not going to be using the new scroll from dungeoneering to help with the amount of torstols needed?

Could it be based on what order you use the items on? For example Seconds -> Unfinished = Keeps unfinished. Unfinished -> Seconds = Keep Seconds. Any chance you could test that and see? Cheers

People confirmed it didn't work with steel titan scrolls so that means the in-game description is wrong, and the KB one makes no sense at all and the actual use no one knows what it does.

This is what I was saying. The forge regent has a right click fireball option, but the right click options don't drain familiar special attack points. The only thing that uses familiar special attack points is scrolls, and it needs to use special attack points to be considered a special attack. Otherwise its just an ability that the familiar has, like the Unicorn's cure, or the Lava Titans +10 invisible firemaking boost. The knowledge base says it's not for special attacks that use scrolls though, and people tested it and it doesn't work with the steel titans scroll attack.

Some specials (like the unicorns "cure" drains summoning points when used). So I think they mean that... but not sure what else there is that does that =/

So it looks like the only item worth getting is the herblore scroll. * You receive a 1 in 8 chance that you make a potion twice as fast as usual * You receive a 1 in 10 chance that you save a secondary ingredient when making any potion I assume with making extremes that would save the Torstol? Amulet of Zealots is only a 5% increase so that's only 20% and thus not worth it (especially with the -8 prayer). Celestial Surgebox could be used too actually, but the other necklaces have very very limited uses. Only things I can see it being worth using with are maybe cannoning bloodvelds to not use any prayer at all and that's it.
