Ring of Life
Yes, Teleblock blocks ALL forms of teleport that is not induced by an NPC. The zamorak mage in wildy can still tele you to the abyss (i think, at least i was teleblocked when he did it).

aberant specters
60 slayer, not 65. If it is of any help, there should a door on the 1st (if you are english) / 2nd (if you are american) floor near where the Bloodvelds are (speaking of which...), get your nose peg on and go through the door, the green things are the specters.

Barrows for me.
Seer's hat is about 50k, Mystic Hat will do, but Seers give you that bit extra safety. It is not mandatory however. Oh, and DONT forget your Ring of LIfe, it saved my bacon a lot of the times

Barrows Questions
looking at your def, you should pray on all of them. Torag and Guthan are the optional Brothers, one does not need prayer on them provided that they have a decent defence, which unfortuantely you fall short of. Dharok, Verac and Karil are the ones you MUST pray when you are fighting them in the CRYPTS. The former 2 can be safe spotted if down in the tunnels. Karil MUST BE prayered at ALL times unless your defence is VERY high. Dharok should be your first. NEVER EVER LET your prayer run out (you can afford that mistake in Verac and Karil, NOT dharok). Then Verac Then Karil If you are using p pots, the order of the above 2 is arbitrary, i suggested that order because it involves less running, and saves a bit of energy) If you have left overs, Ahrim Then try and see if you can Mage Torag and Guthan in melee armor comfortably. One other note, you should NOT use Magic Darts at your level unless you are willing to lower your profits, because you can only do 16 damage, which is no different from 15 done by Fire Bolt (much cheaper alternative). I suggest that you should level your mage to at least 70 before using magic darts.

new item? if not what is it for?
IIRC, it is also used to make Recylim's Balm potion, which cures disease.

Barrows for me.
Replace 2 things in your inv for Red D hide Top and Bottom, and replace your Initiate helm for Seer's Helm. You should be away then. I used a very similar set up when i started barrows, and yes i also used fire bolt, because all the accessible methods to me were not good enough to worth the doubling/quadripling the cost. Other than that, maybe better food, ring of life and replace your boots with wizard boots, and you are away.

Fire Cape
not a ton. If you know how to minimize the damage, you shouldnt need to go near them most of the time. 6 4 dose sara brews did it for me, and it IS better than guthan's in that it also acts as a Super Def pot when used with super restore.
-
Fire Cape
never tried it with Guthan, but using Muggi's Guide, i got it at lv 97 combat, which i HIGHLY doubt i will get to if i had used Guthan's. Guthan's makes it easier for higher levels, but Muggi's guide is very much suited to lower levels. Off Topic : Diddy, congratz on the fire cape :D

difference between mystic staffs and battle staffes
just their stats when you decide to whack people with them. Other than that, they are identical.

how u get skeleton armour? and good way to make lots o cash
1. you have to complete the fremmenik trials quest to get that armor, and involves going to the so called Waterbirth Island. You can check the quest guide on how to make the armor 2. if you have the stats, barrows. If not, try fletching, steady but slow money.

Dragon shield question
It means the half of the shield thats not sold by the legends guild, it is the left half that you spoke of in your post. All monsters that drop shield halves drop the same half, the left half.
-
Potions
Use pray pots instead, that reduces the cost of the pots, (although one can argue that its negligible) oh, and get your kill count up to 10's (10-15 would be good), so that you can get blood runes (6KC wont get you anything but Minds and chaos, perhaps some deaths and barrows, but nothing else). you can accumilate (sp) them and sell for cash. For max cash though, slayer dart, though the optimum method, it is not the cheapest. Fire Bolt with Chaos Gauntlets is the cheapest way. Not that slow either.
-
Potions
Becareful, Super restores are more expensive, and the stats the ahrim lowers is not of any significance in barrows (defence is arguable, but he doesnt lower it enough). I still use prayer pots most of the time, its just that karil lowers agility far worse than Ahrim lowers your strength
-
Potions
Prayer pots restore an amount of prayer equal to 7 + (prayer level / 4), where the number in the brackets are rounded down Super restores restore 8 + (Prayer level / 4), again rounded down. So Super restores heal 1 more prayer than p pots. i bring 1 super and 3 p because karil hurt kneecaps a lot

world 16 air company
Does anybody know if this has been discontinued? The thread on the official forums seems to have dissappeared. I dont want to pay 10 gp per rune craft xp :(

27 June 2006 Tweaks and Bugfixes
i noticed a few visual tweaks so far: 1. On the attack styles page, the name of the weapon you are wielding is now aligned to the centre rather than the left as it was. 2. In Barrows, the Kill Count number is now further down the corner (literally at the corner now)

Serious Problem in the Fight Caves
And bring Sara Brews instead of Sharks, they are far superior than sharks in the caves. Your range, def and Prayer seems fine, though i would bring prayer up a bit more so you can last longer with prayer. Against the 90's, Turn on steel skin when you are killing them, that way you will get hit less. A dose of sara brew and super restore before the wave begins also helps a lot.

Rcty's Poll #002 - CLOSED
i really dont understand why people say Dharok is harder than Karil in the tunnels. Dharok doesnt hit 50's when his hp is full, and because he doesnt hit often, it isnt that hard to get him into a safe spot (which there is 1 in every corner room, so if he spawns there, you are fine). Karil CANNOT be safe spotted, and he hits fast AND accurate, making your life a hell lot more difficult.

Quick barrows guide
it was thought of when POH was released unfortunately.
-
Rcty's Poll #002 - CLOSED
Guthan and Torag are out of the question, they are easy Verac and Dharok are dangerous, but NOT that dangerous if you safe spot or pray on them that leaves with Karil and Ahrim Ahrim has no ranged defence, while Karil has Mage AND melee defence.... Karil Wins this one. I hate him when he is gone hiding -.-

im not a member but can u wear full sara
the only one i can think of near 1m is Wizard (g), and THAT doesnt need quests.

Fight caves
1. thats a bug 2. Before you get to Jad, drink Sara brews until you have over the top HP, then super restore, then ranged pot. When you get to the healers, shoot every one of them once, and turn on steel skin. Try to line them up so only 1 is trying to hit you. When you shoot at the healer, your concentration should be at the SOUND of Jad's attacks, so you can switch prayer. I found shooting 2 at a time to be a good number, ONLY do stuff like potting or shooting the healers, immediately AFTER you have switched on the correct prayer for jad's next attack. 3. Try using Sara Brews over Guthan's if you are using guthan's set. Brews are better in the caves. Range left right and centre.

can i do barrows?
To make money from Barrows, what you need are the following : 1. Prayer level of at least 52 2. Magic Level of at least 59 (so that you can complete the Family Crest quest and get Chaos Gauntlets) 3. Defence level of at least 70 (so that you dont have to pray through Torag and Guthan) 4. Ranged Level of at least 50 (to use Magic Short Bow) Recommended Levels: 1. Prayer of at least 60 2. Magic Level of 80 or higher, along with Slayer of 55 (so that you can use Slayer Dart, and that you don't have to pray against Ahrim) 3. Ranged Level of at least 70 (to wear Karil's Top and Bottom against Ahrim) 4. Wearing Verac's Armor (NOT including weapon, this armor provides both the prayer bonus against the ones you have to pray, being Dharok, Verac and Karil, and provides melee protection against Torag and Guthan, so you dont have to carry as much equip, so you can carry more supplies) NOTE: I do NOT recommend using Mage Outfit unless your prayer is very high, like in the 70's, because you will end up drinking prayer pots more as a result of faster prayer drain. Most people wear this because it 'speeds' up the runs. I have done both and saw negligible difference, so i kept my prayer outfit. Hope this help

monkfish vs the others
yes, but its only marginally faster, and the fish isnt as useful as monkfish.
