Misunderstood Monsters: Wyverns and more!
Already used two of the guides. Got granite legs on my first 60 wyvern kills ever (slayer task). However, I still find it pretty slow to range em. Really easy to safespot phillip if they are unagressive. Quick spawns, so you can just stick on one. Right now, I'm at terrorbirds and doing pretty fine. Got a 199 task, so brought a lot of pray pots and the juggling of drops is keeping me on the tip of my toes. Bunyip at 87 def, super potted, works fine, however, sometimes you have to wait for those extra food drops (and other times, you have too many, pretty annoying :D). All in all, it seems good drops (already got 2 warhammers and 150 tar in 30 min) but the fights are pretty intense. Thansk a lot

Slayer points and Tips
with this trick, your only doing one duradel task every 10 tasks. Might as well get the full points out of it then (75 compared to 60)

Noobs say the funniest things!
Newb was fighting hell hounds, taking him ages. After an heroic fight which lasts ages he says: "wtf, ****** bones", and runs away.

if charms had a price...
Crimson 10k each Gold 2k each Green 2k each Blue: 25k each Once you got charms, its nearly quickest xp there is in game. Killing waterfiends would be an amazing money making method then.

Should double wielding be allowed?
double = two of the SAME ?

"Perfect" Updates
You're kidding, right? I think you just forgot what it used to be like. At the VERY LEAST, dancing now happens at running speed instead of walking, which gets it over with twice as fast. I haven't seen any dancing AT ALL unless I'm near a wall or obstacle that gets in the way of myself or the monster. I've been to gargoyles and didn't dance at all. No idea what you're talking about. I've got to agree with Ryder. But maybe you're just really experienced in non-dancing

Junk Trading: Acceptable, Practical Practice?
Are you serious?! Most of the junk people are offering isnt totally worthless. And if it is, use it yourself. I really cant believe what you just said. You actually get a discount wiht junk trading, the junk itself. Thats why junk prices are so high... + what green said.
-
Should double wielding be allowed?
Or give double wielding negative defence. Makes sence to me. (otherwise shields would be a bit too strong perhaps, dfs def bonus is already huge). So double wielding is like 0.75 attack power (but x2) and -40 def or so?

~ The Incredibly Low Prices of Seeds... Why? ~
So you're going to stand around and wait at the farming patch? You don't spend 75 minutes watching grass grow, you go out and spend that time doing something else. Only the 8 minutes is actually spent farming. Thus, 120k/8 minutes, which averages to 900k/hr. Then that depends on what you do in your spare 52 minutes. The way you wrote your posts it gave the impression of 900k per hour with farming, which just isn't possible. If I do a farming run before bedtime, it is as if they have grown instantly This is the big misconception about farming. It's not skill you powerllv. Just do it evey now and then, and IF you do it, if you calculate the time you spend on it, and the xp + money you get, it's one of the best skills there is. But this is getting off topic. If you want me to convince you even more that farming is the best skill out there, just pm me in game.

Clue Scrolls, still worthwhile doing?
My last 7 clues (=after clue update) were pure junk. All under 50k. Before update, I got pretty lucky getting a zammy plate and sara helm within a few clues. But that can be coincidence of course. I dont do that much clues.

"weird" slayer tasks
Done 6 tasks so far at Duradel and I cant complain. No steel drags yet, one wyvern task, one mith drags task, no doubles. However, 6 tasks is a very small sample of course.

"Perfect" Updates
I just went to mith drags and was still dancing like before.

~ The Incredibly Low Prices of Seeds... Why? ~
i agree. they huge nr of xp you can get there outweight most people from farming ;) Snapdragon farming is 40k xp an hour AND 900k gp an hour. How does vinesweeper beat that. Farming tree seeds on the other hand is like 500k+ xp an hour, but also makes you lose 5M+ an hour.

Tip.It Times Presents: Functionality vs. Flash
Thing is, they ARENT giving better updates since they got big. Actually, Runescape was much nicer when it was still small, and where the mods actually knew what was going on in the community. Now it's more like an impersonal multinational, who has no direct contact with it's customers, or at least doesnt know what they want.

If you had 40M
50k Drag bones = 110 M Godswords (plurial) = 200M+ Drag stuff = 11M (if you don't buy full helmet) Bars for 99 smith = 100M (just an estimate) total = 400M + ( >> 40M) :thumbdown:

Items To Rise & Fall In "Rune" Detail? (speculation)
What an amazing analysis... Look at the full screen picture at the guy in full dragon. You'll see the in game version of dragon med will not have changed. Just the convo version is changed (probably). And please don't come up with: "D med has gone up yesterday, this is a clear sign blablabla". D med was at it's alch price, so it's normal that it fluctuates a bit there.

What's wrong with blue dragons? People kill them even when not being assigned..

~ The Incredibly Low Prices of Seeds... Why? ~
Just make a calculation: Irit seed: cost = 70 gp profit (with an average of 7 herbs) = 7k (dunno how much irits are). xp = 60 (not sure, i dont farm them, just to give you an image) Snapdragon seed: cost = 40 000 gp profit = 7*8k - 40k = 16k xp = 98 (and I've taken an expensive price for seeds, and not expensive one for herbs, 16k is minimum, it's more towards 30k tbh).

Cool :-). I got members by transferring money from my bank to their billing account (overschrijving, whatever it's called in english), but this might be easier.

The looks and special attacks :thumbup: How many godswords have you got stocked up? They are already looking good, and their specials wont change with the graphic update.

Junk Trading: Acceptable, Practical Practice?
Huh, why would you buy junk med price, and sell it afterwards with your underpriced item for med price again... That will make no difference.

Summoning the new Smite?
so your saying 300k-400k gp. for decent summoning? well thats way off i have spent over 4m (after selling pouches) for 65summoning :x then handle your money better. I spent 50k on 41 summoning and only used a few more afterwards. If u wanna save cash, use smething that uses few shards and get your own seconds Please think before you post... If you would have done something else in the time you wasted gathering seconds, you could have made much more money (in most cases). And mostly, you're better off making the best pouch you can, since it gives more xp, so you have to make less pouches. Okay?

Items To Rise & Fall In "Rune" Detail? (speculation)
I don't think it's going to be an earth-shattering effect, but you don't think people will pay more to look cooler if it really looks cooler? Of course, on minor items. But the items where the GE is totally wrong, partyhats, third age ... won't be fixed because of this. Third age is already underpriced, and nobody is selling. I dont see it going up (GE-wise) suddenly because of the update. And I dont see the trade price going up either (already really inflated). Partyhats on the other hand are overpriced, and I dont think an improved look (tbh, how can they improve the look of such a simple looking item?) won't make people suddenly pay 50M more for it. Might just be another manipulating topic... (but hey, at least we dont get pictures of every item's graph from a certain 3rd party software that needs to be advertised).

Items To Rise & Fall In "Rune" Detail? (speculation)
Hmm, I dont see partyhats rising just because of a graphical update. Dragon med might go up a bit if it really looks that good, since it's so dirt cheap (alch price atm). But still, it stays a bad helmet... Was also surprised to see arma helm going up. On the other hand, 4M is not too much for the best ranging helmet in game. Also, some items you listed there are going up anyways, third age for example. That one is stopped by the fact that it is very underpriced so yeah.. Also, I think it's a bit stupid to think that only Dmeds will look hotter. What if the equivalent helms, neitiznot, rune full helmet etc, will look hotter too? I mean, EVERYTHING is getting redone, right? edit: just checked the guy in full dragon in the full screen picture, and tbh, dmed hasnt changed a lot there. Dboots and rangers look very bad there too. Only improvement I see there, is on splitbark. So if dmeds will go up, it'll be just for looking at yourself in chat box. OR, they still have to remodel it for the ingame look.
