Wow... Over 2 hours and not a single post, anywhere on this forum. I know nobody posted anywhere because nobody posted on MY thread, and it was still at the top of the list just now. Sorry for the double post, but still... Wow.

Beofre I get into this, I would just like to say: Yes, I know there is already a thread for puzzle box techniques. I just wanted to make sure this would be seen. Also, for those of you who want to practice your puzzle box techniques, buy 'Final Fantasy: Dawn of Souls' for the GBA. There is a 15 piece sliding puzzle mini-game that you activate whilst riding the ship. When I frst started playing that mini-game, the puzzles would take me upwards of 5-10 minutes, just for a 15 piece one. Now I can do the 24 piece ones that JAGEX gives us, no sweat. It will teach you all the basic techniquest you need to know to be successful with puzzle boxes. Now, the whole point of making this thread was to compile as much ACTUAL video footage of puzzle boxes being solved as possible. You can talk as much as you want, explain the technique, etc., but some people just need to see it to learn how to do it. As of now, I only have 1 video, but I will continue adding them whenever I get puzzle boxes. And since I do clues for a living, that's pretty often. -=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=- VIDEOS -=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=- Troll: http://media.putfile.com/Puzzle-Box Castle: http://media.putfile.com/Puzzle-box2 Tree: Like I said, I ill continue to add these as I get them. Hope they will help!And if anybody knows a better video upload place than PutFile, like one where I can just upload it and then the viewers can download it as a Winamp file, please tell me![/i]

Personally, (and this is just my passionate hatred of mages talking), I think this gives a little more balance to the PKing triangle than it had before. With the recent addition of the Smite prayer, mages can entangle you, lower your prayer, and then blast the hell out of you. Smite isn't nearly as effective for melee fighters, simply because, (thinking how I should phrase this) ... hmmm ... When a mage is blasting away at a melee person, they can lower the target's prayer without any threat of retribution, (because, of course, the melee fighter can't reach the mage to drain their prayer in return.) This prevents a melee fighter from protecting themselves against the all powerful god spells, (max 35 dmg. when charged), and also means they .. and here is the big issue ... CANNOT USE ITEM PROTECT!! The whole point I am trying to make here is; When a melee fighter is getting maged, they are going to get owned. It's inevitable. So if they wish to keep their 4 best items instead of just their 3 best, they must bring a prayer potion with them whenever going into the wild, even if they're not PKing. So if MAGES have to bring a RESTORE POTION with them it's just the same. So don't complain .. sacrifice one shark to bring a stat restore potion, or run the risk of being owned. Just like melee users must sacrifice one food item to bring a prayer potion, or they run the risk of losing their 4th best item. This isn't really a bias AGAINST mages, but more of a bias IN FAVOR OF rangers. And yeah, I know that rangers are the ideal fighters against mages, but Oh God this is alot of text to explain something so simple. But I think by now you get the point. I would also like to bring up a less common issue, but a potential threat to melee fighters all the same. Let's say your magic level is .. hmmm ... 65, right? And you have brought with you into the wild Ardougne tele runes, since they only take up 2 inventory spaces as opposed to the 3 used by the lower level tele spells. Now, if a ranger gets lucky and hits, say, a 20 against you with his Seercrull special, that would reduce your magic level to 45!! Since the only runes you brought with you were Ardougne tele runes, this has stopped you from teleporting as effectively as a teleblock. Since warriors are less vulnerable to rangers than mages are, this is less of an issue, but still an important thing to consider whenever going into the wild. Consider these issues carefully, and if I have messed up somewhere and completely missed soemthing important, rendering all of this data useless, please feel free to shut the hell up and let me bask in my logical glory.[/i]

I just kill him whenever he pops up. I've gotten pestle and mortar, super energy (4), and super defense (3).

Just because stuff is blurry on the edges doesn't mean it's fake. View the below picture, for example .. it's blurry, but that's just because of the image format I saved it in! http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/664/damn23zi.png Also probably because I spray-painted some blur on there in paint... But that's not the point!!

And what's the big deal about doing the quests anyway? I dropped about 5 clues in the past because they all required going to the elf camp. Eventually I got tired of it, raised my Agility to 56, and went to do Regicide.

You know what solves the whole thing though? I'm a professionaly treasure hunter ... as in, I do clues for a living. So how about I go out into a free world the next time i get a clue, and try to dig there. Then I can confirm whether or not this is possible... Or, if you don't want to wait for me to get a clue, then somebody reading this who already has one should go try it.
