Useless items - though if you use a busy trading area, it helps to stand out. The token gets you either the frog mask, gives you an oversized green head and fills the helmet space. Or a complete prince/princess outfit (body/legs)

Ice lands, Random Scenarios, and Summoning...
Doomster replied to DragnFly's topic in General Discussion
Hmmm, does that finally tie up with the penguins in a sheep costume, perhaps they need to be escorted back at some point. -
Don't forget the pouches when mining ess (fill 'em up, then mine some more) or for non-abyss runecrafting. Any time you carry un-noted essence, you should be using pouches.

I lost my short (Willow) but had a spare long, so trained with that. At medium range (where both the long and the short SHOULD work), stepping out seems to be more common with the long.

If it needs PC133 SDRAM, anything faster is also completely the wrong type of memory!

Depends... is saving your most expensive item (skulled) or a 4th item (unskulled) worth an extra 3 combat levels? Varies between F2P and P2P, of course, as the best bow of a F2P range pure or the staff of a mage pure is not fantastically expensive (actually, if you use a power ammy as a ranger, that would be the protect). Melee pures could save a rune weapon with protect - functioning as a "1 itemer" if the other items are expendable.

The Varrock Wizards circle, then pop back into the city (southeast corner) for an altar to recharge at ... can often score a few good runes, as well as a load of basic runes there, plus loads more bones (hey, it's still prayer XP, at 4.5 a piece for free) as it seems rare to find people burying bones from their kills there.

For anything you don't need to take down quickly, Fire strike is plenty good enough, and free if you craft your own runes. An alternative is Earth strike (uses less airs), with a wielded earth staff - also carry waters and bodies to start the attack with a curse - I'd always start a mage training attack with a curse, as you should get fewer misses. Comparing spells: Fire strike does up to 8 damage, and uses 2 airs, 1 mind, fire staff Fire bolt does up to 12 damage, uses 3 airs, 1 chaos, fire staff Base XP is almost double though, but crumble undead is still the highest XP for chaos, though not the bargain it used to be.

It would seem that it http://www.runeshop.net/ doesn't break the rules, as they seem to be offerring "free making" and a trading post this is Game items for game items. Of course, unless you trade supplies for finished, they could still steal your supplies!

The blurite dungeon seems to be tougher these days, unless you can take 3 or more strong friends to keep the Ice warriors occupied. 1 iteming (your pick) with any food you carry eaten before you die, may still be possible, the object being to end up in lumby with your pick and 1 or 2 blurites. The sword is a ceremonial sword, and is better than an Iron long, but not as good as a steel, and yes, inferior in performance but better in looks than the silverlight as a weapon for a defence pure. The biggest plus of the quest is the smithing boost, most useful if you are below or only just up to iron level, a better reason to do it than the decorative sword.
-
Maybe the "saved select page" method will work better... The usual cycle of refreshing the page until a world is not full has one problem... By the time you get your name and password typed in, it's usually full again, so then you're on another retry cycle until the next hole comes along.
-
Before you finish in there, additional keys can be obrained by the usual talk/drop method, but you have to plan in advance if you want to continue using it as a training area, with insurance in the form of extra keys

tips on how to make money with my stats?
Doomster replied to KetchupClock's topic in Help and Advice
Pure essence is a possibility, faster to mine than most other things, and no hunting for unoccupied rocks, plus the runecrafters stockpiles of pure essence should be pretty depleted now, so prices should be steady. Actually, to round out your skills, you could do with more magic, and more runecrafting to feed it - price check pure vs. ordinary essence, as for the elements, mind and body runes, you could multiply your essence by mining and selling pure, then buying ordinary on F2P worlds -
Al-Kharid is the best F2P forge Varrock (west bank) is the best anvil Even at 50% success, Iron can work just as well in F2P For an average of 14 bars per load of 28 ores, at 37.5 XP smelted and smithed, Iron is 525 XP per load. For 9 bars from 27 ores (9 Iron, 18 Coal), at 55 XP smelted & smithed, Steel is only 495 XP per load. The only real drawback of Iron, is that you are standing for 28 furnace operations instead of 9, and you do more anvil work for items of lower value. The advantage of Iron, is that it's faster to mine or cheaper to buy than coal, mitigating the longer processing time.

Don't know how long before Jagex nerf this one.... The caged Zamorak Monk in Varrock palace - though there is only one, a successful curse wears off incredibly quickly. I'll be "doing mage levels" there. Another one that I only found out about recently... Ducks on the river by the champions guild - maybe not the best targets, but think of the numbers of them at lumbridge and then multiply it several times. Only problem is you end up taking the ones you have cursed with you, so finding fresh ones can be difficult.

Could also boost your level a few by using a chef's delight - I believe it needs 4 chocolate dust, a gift for anyone that kept lots of holiday eggs.

According to crucial.com memory selector, it is PC133 SDRAM - now an obsolescent format. Anything faster than 133 will be DDR memory, using a different interface altogether. Never heard of 233MHz RAM... SDRAM came in 66/100/133 (PC66/PC100/PC133) - 168 pin DIMM format DDR comes in 200/266/333/400 (PC1600/PC2100/PC2700/PC3200) - there are other higher but unofficial speeds. 184 pin DIMM format Check the descriptions further, if the "233" has the same description in number of contacts (pins) as the PC133, then it may be a misprint bargain.

Now where did I see: Air crafters: Black robed - pay 2500gp & 25 noted ess for 25 un-noted Blue robed - pay 125 air runes and 25 noted ess The first way is a good way to make gp but not XP for a runner, since 2.5k gp is about what you can make for a lower level "skill load". The second is actually the true "fast free airs", ideal for mages that don't want to runecraft

Best possible chef's guild XP trip is to combine wines (ingredients on site) with apple pies (bring grain, and while everything else is available there, better to have a spare pie dish in case the one there is camped, similarly a pot) For pies, it depends how many you want to do and then eat/empty on each cycle, as unllike other places, you can manage with only one pot for flour.

Ice Giant... Black kiteshield, Moss Giant... Black square

If the staking rules selected disallow prayer, maybe, if they don't disallow prayer, then you want to be going in with prayer charged to +2 from the monastery altar and carrying prayer pots (unless potions are disallowed).
-
Some particular space economies that can be made are: 1. Food: Hold only the best item you can get, sell/dump or eat lower items during training 2. Gen store items: usually more efficient to discard them after use 3. Arrows: hold 1 or 2 types at most 4. Item condition: Avoid holding items in more than one condition (gems cut/uncut), amulets unstrung, strung, enchanted, capes in more than one colour. Either hold things in "raw" condition or finished, but you may have to make exceptions to that when collecting more supplies, especially those which offer useful XP.

That is the cabbage that you DO NOT USE on the Black Knight's Fortress quest

Unless you get a LOT of swordies compared to tuna, I would think it would balance the potential XP for each load Since the cooking XP of most fish is 20 more than the fishing XP, that and the higher success rate can favour using lower level fish to train cooking - eg. Fly fish trout/salmon. Mind you, cooking and banking Lobster, or cooking tuna/swordies and dropping tuna until a full load of swordies, gives you something good to trade or use.

Had both the "Odd one out" Quizmaster and the teleportation matrix error (pick the odd lever out). Same day. The random event system seems to nominate certain areas for extra attention.
