What are you talking about? You will still wreak havoc, just as much as before the update. There's just a few people that will be better because they played caslte wars for years. I doesn't make you hit lower or something.

Dunno, now it's not a pilefest.

Wiveren, that original link I posted was Chessy018's youtube account.

It's probably not even her. Ditto, it's proly just some anon this dosent mean its really her but...she has a few videos with multiple pictures of her in it , and i think she has one of her talking. In any case, it's remarkable what a "hot picture" can do. If this were a guy, you wouldn't have "i voted because you're hot" responses. In fact, I'm pretty sure you will get flamed 10x more. Another example is somebody who is begging to get a green partyhat for trade price in the RSOF rare section. He/she has an avatar of a "hot" girl with a robin and has a small story how he/she has always wanted it and is working for it all the time, etc. etc. A surprising amount of people supported him/her and he/she thanks them kindfully with something along "thanks <3, hugz". Don't really know what to think about it, since it might [wagon] wel be a 65 year old guy -.-

Found this pretty funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5Jc7vRCdb0 How cheap, thinking that people will just vote by putting a picture of yourself. At least show the vid... I wonder if she get's paid for it.

Pretty nice. Surprised you don't hit more though. On slayer tasks, with only a 15% boost, I hit 600s, though that is with bandos chestplate and rune defender as strength boosters (whch you are missing). I'm pretty sure that you could hit 700+ with a zerker (i) on the flag holder.

Was thinking exactly the same. I'm inclined to think that rapier is best on everyting solo.

Would it be worth replacing the slayer helm for tasks requiring prayer? Of course not. People are paying 100k/h to get a 25-30% boost by turmoil, so why would you accept a decrease by 15% to save a mere 33k?

karil skirt + ranger boots gives more ranged attack bonus than armadyl plateskirt + snakeskin boots, and it used to be cheaper (not anymore).

Do you pray mystic might or something (pointing to soul wars cape).

I'm amazed at the "high lvl aspect" of this update. If you want the profound set, you need nearly 5k tickets. That's more than 1500 hours roughly. EDIT: 14k games, wow! That's 5833 hours (at 25 min a game). That's 2.6h of castle wars a day, 6 years non stop.

says the tip it editor. Xpx: All those new bonus only affect one target (at least the staff and extreme mage pot bonus) so it won't speed up your experience much at all. I also think addy plates are faster than a 3 bar rune item. its actually writer, and i havent even had an article posted since i just got in, under my clan leader asking me if i wanted to give it a go. says the person that goes around and trolls the forums. Was joking, relax. I like to read the tip it times, guides and whatnot (not sure if you are writer of everything on tip it, or just tip it times articles). I just found it a funny response because playing Runescape in general, or visiting this forum is proof that you have "too much time". Miracle: are you sure you didn't make a mistake? 600m is insane. A rough calc with addy bars at 3k and 300 xp per plate says it's around 20gp/xp (without sc hammers) edit: it's 15 according to rs wiki.

Yes, but at waterfiends it doesn't because they have no strength or attack, so however long turmoil is activated, it stays at 15% att, 23% str. (your def does get raised to 26 or 29% though)

Seems quite true. I personally don't see santa's as a "keeper" too, because they mostly are pretty easy to get, even when they are bought out. (so I'd rather sell, wait a while and rebuy).

Or you can just not give a rats-[wagon] about how rich others are. It's not like I personally care that much, I made quite a bit of it myself, it's just pretty insane pretty insane when you think about it. I mean, people who just buy 10 santa's and do nothing make more than people doing monster hunting and getting 2 claw drops a month. (ps: I only got 1 claw drop ever myself, so don't call me the frustrated monster hunter).

Claws are about 1 in 250... at the rarest, 1 in 300. If you kill 50/h, that's about 6 hours per claw, or 5M gp/hour. Right? That's right. The numbers I wrote down weren't any calculations or anything, just basic numbers I remembered (perhaps wrong) from somewhere. The point was that HIS numbers were wrong too :-)

Even if they rebound now, I don't think they will keep rising at this rate. I mean, it's freaking insane right now. "Average people" with 200m or something and who happened to have bought a couple of santa's one year ago are suddenly becoming billionairs. It's a slap in the face for people without them who are monster hunting or flipping for a "measly hundred mill".

He's less then level 30, so the only floors he has access to are the lower floors. There is no reason for him to do them at C1 and C2. Reguardless, floors 1 - 27, small, 5:3 is about 48k exp/hr on average. It's better to do it with a team and fill up 2 - 4 floor gaps and C1 - C3 then do all of them at C1 - C3 since you almost reach the Exp/hr for one of the Larger dungeons, per hour, in the process. The time saved by just solo C1ing all of the lower floors doesn't make for the exp gotten with the first Large dungeon you do. C1 Solo: 3 Mins average. 81 Mins to 27, 8k exp total First dungeon: 1 hour, up to 56k exp 141 Mins for 64k exp, or 27.2k exp hour 5:3 Small: 7 Mins average, 189 Mins, ~5.5k exp floor average, 148.5k exp total 47.1k exp/hr with a large dungeon still in the line up C1 Solo becomes better if you take longer then ~138 minutes to find a team. 5:3 Small is a better exp/hr rate and better exp/reset, along with being the better choice UNLESS you cannot get a team in a little over 2 hours, which should be no problem. If you can't find a team, make one and add everyone that goes with you. Message them if you need people and making teams becomes easy. I'd present data for 5:5 small, but I have never done it, except on a few small occations and I don't feel I'm familiar enough with a general round to comment on it. For the lulz Disclaimer: Qeltar made an analysis of soloing 1-29 on C1 solo vs. doing them all in teams, and it only came out being around 2k xp/h worse. You should read it, it's pretty interesting. There are some thing you can calculate, and some you can't- namely intangibles. Doing C1 solo is a bitter grind where as 5:3 or 5:5(i prefer 5:3 on the ice floors) are much less demanding and stressful. You have got to hand it to jagex- they never, ever wanted to see people soloing this minigame and i doubt they will ever do. I can't see any reason for solo medium dungeons to be good. On the actual topic- lately, as the hype has died down so have most of the newbies(people who don't know to use pickaxe on bulwak at level 75), and the large dungeons i have done lately have all gone much better than they would have say a week ago. There will always be enough people to dungeoneer with at this rate, and as the rewards require such high amounts of xp and are very much worth it there will always be people coming in for those too. Actually, it's less of a grind since it's faster. Also, I think it's less stressful (only done a few c1s though) than 5:5 (haven't done 5:3). To do 5:5's fast you need to be constantly alert, run around, pick up food before others take all, and try not to die on the boss. And I'm not even talking about the times where you seem the only one who grasps the concept of rushing, and need to push your team mates all the time to be efficient (ie some idiots are making runes or armour, or decide to kill that tier11 warrior in a non guardian room). Now that's damn stressful. Oh, have I mentioned searching for teams?

Your calculations are wrong. Hilts aren't 1/150. I think they are 1/300 or even 1/600. Also, 1/34 on an armour piece of Bandos is completely false. With 600k per bandos kill, you would make over 12M/h :-) (people report 20-30 bandos kills an hour). Just from what I've heard, these are money rates: Dk's: 3m/h (hybridding with yak, don't solo mage, it's a waste waiting for spawns. At least do Prime too then, or just tribrid). Td's: 3-3.5m/h (your kill rate is low tbh, use a steel titan, claws and spec restores, and you should manage 40-50 kills/h). Bandos: 3m+/h (not sure on how much it was exactly, but something over 3m) Armadyl: 4m+/h (again not sure). I know I'm not really answering your questions here, but I think you should first start out with correct information (+ I don't know the answers, I don't do GWD, nor do I solo mage)

Man, even though I own 6 santa's I'm pretty disgusted by their price. Any noob who bought 10 for 100m like a year (or how long has it been) ago, has 1B. That's sick. ps: What could I get with a purple and 6 santas (in terms yellow or green phat). How far am I off?

<3: :thumbsup: <3: How long did it take them? 5 years apparently :unsure: I'm actually against this update, I found the old way much better and forced you to fight your way to the chamber, rather than find a safe haven, but that's just me. To my understanding, monsters still attack you when you try to open the door. You still loose lp if they hit you. What's different now is I think the interface isnt disrupted and closed while under attack. Wrong. When you enter the chamber, you still have one monster after you as usual. This monster will follow you to the door, and STILL interupt you if you aren't fast enough (like it used to do). However, once you have taken down the monster while standing next to the puzzle door, no OTHER monsters will get agressive towards you. So no longer getting mad that after you killed that one monster to open the door more easy, another one attacks you.

I have hit 471 without that chaotic staff, so you are wrong. I think it's more like: 300 * 1.21 * 1.35 = 490

Why is cannoning non multi more of a waste than multi? Cannonballs still hit the same, they just hit less/h, so you pay less per hour, but also save less time per hour
