He meant in the first case that he would buy a seed rather than buying a brand new bow. Buying and recharging a seed is much cheaper than buying a new bow.

sigh... 2500 is for the TOTAL bow, not 1 grade, otherwise this bow wouldnt be 180k to recharge. Let's Analyse the 2 situations in detail Scenario 1 : You recharge for 900k, next bow at 720k, assume cost of seed is 150k, total 1770k Scenario 2 : you buy a new bow for 900k, recharge the next one at 900k, total 1800k. Net 30k loss Now lets take a look at what happens during the next 5 recharges: Scenario 1 : Recharge for 540k, then 360k, then 180k, then 180k, then 180k (total 1440k) Scenario 2 : Recharge for 720k, then 540k, then 360k, then 180k, then 180k (total 1980k) Net loss due to scenario 2 : 540k Total loss : 580k Thats how much you actually lose if you recharge the bows, which is 610k. Which is roughly the difference between a new crystal bow and [buying a seed from someone else for 150k + a 180k recharge]. there you go.

62 fishing is required to fish monk fish, which should say on the quest requirements.

Monkfish might not sell well, because lobsters and sharks have a greater supply, and thus greater demand, but if you wish to be self sufficient, and have too low of a fishing level to fish sharks properly, Monkfish cannot be replaced with another type of food for training. Fast fishing (thus great Fishing xp and nets you good numbers), 16 per fish is nothing to be scoffed at, and it tastes great! :P

nope, all you need is access to the stronghold. In fact The gnome stronghold quest also need 25 agility to complete.

1. probably not, they are only for the looks. I dont think jagex will implement something that would be important in a random event. 2. They will probably never EVER let holiday items tradable again, because they did NOT like to see things like P hats and Santas happen again (the fact that they are tradable and a lot of people make money from them) 3. around 600k-800k i think.

It was introduced by jagex as a counter measure to stop macro'ers, basically the jist of it is : There are 2 essences, Normal and Pure. Normal ones can ONLY be made into Air, Mind, Water, Earth, Fire and Body runes. Every other rune (combo or higher levels) can only be done with a pure essence. Pure essence however can be used for lower level runes. The number of runes and the xp you get is not affected by the type of ess you use. to get pure ess by mining, you need to be a member, having done rune mysteries and have lv 30 mining, in which case all your ess will be pure ess.

FYI, Terrorbirds in the Gnome Stronghold also counts as birds.

firstly, you need to prayer for at least 1 hour, because half of the waves that you fight in the caves have the Ket-Zek (360), which has long ranged magic attack, thus you need to have protect from magic on at all times unless they are not firing at you (it is possible to get them stuck so that you cant fire at you), but you need AT LEAST 16 SUPER RESTORES if you are gonna survive. lv 70 ranged is sufficient to do well in the caves, higher makes it easier. Melee'ing Jad is the LAST thing anyone wants to do, simply because you need to switch between 3 prayers as opposed to 2, and thus opening up chances that you misclick the prayer, and get 1 hit. If you were to you use Karil's Crossbow, you need at least 3000 bolts per attempt, thus that is why it is highly suggested that you use crystal bows instead, because it allows cheaper recharges (180k per attempt rather than 900k). Sharks does zits in caves, i used tuna potato's and they completely failed to work. I didnt even see jad when i used food (that's pretty bad), use SARA Brews instead, because you can heal more per inv space, but it also increases your Defence level, which is EXTREMELY beneficial.

With the exception of Karil's Crossbow that is. There should be NO argument here, on its own, NOTHING beats a whip, and I mean it. Whip can only be compared to Dharok's Full Set, but all melee barrow weapons on their own, quite frankly, are useless.

How do you choose your respawn point? complete Recruitment Drive quest, and speak to Sir Tiffy Cashien, he can change your respawn points.

your choice. i would train his defence up, i dont like pures, on the controllers side or the confronting pures side.

verac's? Str bonus? What the...? All Barrow weapons, excluding the X Bow, does not perform well unless it is used as a full set. You NEED the full set for any of the barrow weapons to perform well. Getting the weapon on its own is a waste of money, you are better off buying the plate skirt instead, as the armor pieces are far more useful. Verac's Set doesnt increase str for the record, thats Dharok's set. Verac's set increases the ACCURACY of your hits by (sometimes) ignoring your opponent's armor.

To add to that, you can also do it in crafting, when cutting gems or crafting hard leather armor (ONLY hard leather, soft leather doesnt work).

C bow is indeed good for ahrim, but i found that MSB with Rune arrows kill faster, so you can decide which you want.

PS. Satenza, could you contact Laikrob and The valor to see if they lack any more results? I would gladly submit more 50 KC tables if it is needed. (i hope the 7 item weekend happens again :P)

it matters if you want consistent drops (like if you want a more steady money source than just barrow items), then yes, kill count does actually matter, as it improves your rune drop rate (it also helps you to keep your death rune count up for darts), i found 10 to be ideal. any higher than 15 to me was a waste of time. up to 15 is good, any more after is a waste.

Why would I go out fishing if I had enough sharks in bank? i didnt use a single piece of food, with full ham robes and no weapon (i just kicked Sigmund to death). all i did was melee prayer, and the 15% str and attack prayer, and wham! HAM history.

Mort Myre Mushrooms can be gotten by simply casting boom (blessed sickle option) near some rotting logs in the mort myre swamps. Avantoe is a lv 50 herb that can be bought from other players with the appropriate herblore level, or it is a herb drop (most herb droppers will drop avantoes)

go to ranged guide in the game, and you will see that there is a picture of the bone x-bow, and it says bolts up to iron... Iron bolts?!

1. does the bone crossbow only take bone bolts, or does it take other bolts too? 2. what is the bone bolts' damage compared to say the arrows?

there is a table blocking the chest to the sink now, so you cant fill your vials as easy T_T...

barrows are the best for monster killing, but rune gloves are best used in wildy, rune gloves have these stats: Attack +8 to all but magic, +4 to magic Defence +8 to all but magic, +4 to magic +8 strength, 0 prayer costs less than a pair of mystic gloves, and as good defence as the crest gaunts Dont buy the dragon gloves unless you got 130k to bur, it has less stats than barrow gloves and costs the same.

Strictly not the best, but the better one is horrifically expensive, like in the region of 5m. It's called Mage's Book, Magic Training Arena Reward and gives +15 magic attack and defence bonus. If you want cheapness, go for broodoo shield, +5 prayer and +3 magic attack bonus, as well as decent melee defence.

any chance of you pming me what KC needs results, i might be able to fill in the gaps if needed.
