Everything in here has been really helpful. I appreciate your advice. :) I might try dungeoneering for a bit to get those good weapons and go from there. Thanks for the tips, guys. And if anyone has any more thoughts to add, feel free to do so. :D

It's not really that helpful. I tried doing that, but I'm asking you guys as a community to help me sift through the nonsense and get to the good stuff. Plus, there's no point to reading an update that came out in '07 if its benefits are already obsolete, right? And thanks for the tips, Sinkhan. Few follow up questions: - Any tips on what exactly to farm? I'm willing to put effort into it if it means making money. - Think I should just go to different slayer tasks for combat levels (I'm only 102, I suppose I should work that up if I want to take on Nex or whatever haha), and use the charms from the drops to level summoning at the same time? I guess what I'm asking is, is that a typical/beneficial plan? - I guess the "relevance" question I was getting at was in regards to all these new abbreviations and acronyms I keep hearing. People talk about Bandos a lot; I only just figured out what that was (thought people were talking about the trimmed armor, haha). I mean, the whip used to be amazing, and now I guess it sucks. What weapons/armor are preferred nowadays?

So I'm considering getting back into the RS swing of things as of recently. I doubt anyone remembers me, but I used to frequent these forums long ago. Can't play nearly as much as I used to, but it's fun every now and then. Problem is, everything's changed so much that I have no idea what's going on. (I played for a month over two years ago, but totally forget how I leveled summoning, haha.) I have a few questions: - I'm hearing lots of talk of "the only way to make money is through combat (and maybe farming)". I used to be a hardcore RCer, but is that not a viable skill for cash moneys anymore? How can I make decent money nowadays? I only have about 4-5M to my name right now. Is farming still horrifically boring? - Similar to the previous question, is there anything from '07 that's still relevant? Gear/skill training methods/anything? - Should I be leveling summoning just because of the utility of the familiars? Seems they help with every other skill in some way. - I used to be able to wear my quest cape, but obviously no longer. Should I go through and do every quest again? Are they worth it?

My main problem right now is I feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of things I feel like I should do, which requires learning this game almost from scratch. If there are any quick tips for reorienting myself, I would very much appreciate it.
