i thought it was 30 mining rather than 30 rc?

It means that only it can craft members only craftable runes. All the runes f2p can craft can be done with normal rune essence, every thing else, like combo runes, nats. cosmics, laws etc. need pure essence. Oh, you get the same number of runes crafted using either rune ess.

most likely not, of all the pictures i have seen people in KBD lair are all the same: Anti-Dragon Shield, Anti-Dragon pots, Full initial and on melee prayer

KBD no, and if there was, you wouldnt be able to hit it because its a multi area and a lot of people just melee it anyway. DK's, i am almost certain that there isnt, otherwise Mud staff would not be several million gp.

i guess no1 knows an answer, so... I have to change my question a bit :P 1. From where i am standing, Burgh de Rott bank seems extremely near to Barrows, how come a lot of the guides dont mention that bank, besides having no temple nearby? or is the temple reason enough? 2. How does Karil's cross bow compare to magic short on rune arrows on damage and speed? I have gotten a bunch of racks and possibly want to invest in a crossbow in my barrowing against ahrim...

the higher of course, the better, but bolts will do. Just bring enough for say 100 spells to be safe. AND DO NOT FORGET a way to teleport out!

it is easy. take say... 400 air runes and 100 death runes, teleport rune and a bit of food. The tree spirit is actually quite manageable with that set up. You can just side step beside a rock and you will be safe from her. the 3 prayer points you are left with is plenty.

turn into a monkey, go into the food shop in ape atoll, and there should be a ladder, go up there, there should be 2 archer monkeys there on the roof. They dont have reinforcements, so put on your ranged prayer, kill them, and take there bones and that will be their remain

you can trade any barrow piece as long as they dont show a number (totally fixed) or is broken (0)

Steel Gauntlet is easy, go to the guy you started the quest with, and talk to him again so you get your gaunts back. Oh... just incase you didnt know, you can 'improve' those gauntlets by talking to one of the brothers Excalibur you need 500gp. you remember the lady you went to to get the excalibur? she is on a lake south east of taverly. talk to her and you can get your excalibur back. do not forget the 500gp

however chaos at lv 74 is not bad, crafts 2 chaos per ess... though its a bit far :P Chaos sells for about 150ea, easier if sold at 140ea, but thats 50 gp per ess, not that good. If you want pure xp, i recommend either body runes or fire runes, I recommend Fire runes as they are more useful, sells better and the ess is cheap (20 ea if you are UNlucky)

The one by crafting guild spawns snape grass fast enough so that if you bring your unfinished pots, you wont be waiting at all. The grand tree food store stocks not 5 bars, but 8 at full :), also if you have done some recipe for disaster quests, you also have a good access to chocolate bars.

the place down by the lessers in karamja volcano seems a good place

I would recommend, if you have never ever ran barrows before, use full prayer outfit: Unholy Symbol Farseer's Helm Monk's top and Bottom Unholy Book Any god cape Lava Staff your choice of gloves, preferrably the Recipe for Disaster ones, rune or better. Mystic Boots 100 Rune Arrows Inventory: 200 Death Runes 630 Air Runes 10 Law Runes Ectophial Spade Magic Bow 8 Prayer Pots rest food I understand that this trip will be very demanding on prayer potions, but its very safe, and since you are unfarmiliar with barrows, i recommend you do this for a few trips to get yourself farmiliar with the brothers and the tunnels. I used the above method at higher stats for a few runs, then i cut down on costs by being a little bit more economical If you want, here is my set up: Farseer's Helm Unholy Symbol Monk's Top and Bottom Saradomin Cape Ring of Life Rune Arrows Lava Battlestaff Mystic Boots Chaos Gauntlets Inventory: 2 Prayer Pots 630 Air Runes 200 Chaos runes 10 Law Runes Spade Magic Bow Red Dragon Hide top and bottom Rune plate, legs and kite Abyssal Whip Ectophial Rest food

search for Chewy Shoe, you should be able to find it

Sara : Saradomin Zammy : Zamorak (h) : Heraldic D : Dragon weapon / armor (not the hide ones) hope that helps :P

the abyss is very simple to use, except there are a few tricky bits... 1. Pk'ers, they love to camp out near the mage, and teleblocking/entangling people. 2. The monsters are a bit... tough, so you need to wear something to protect yourself. Dragonhide helps a lot. 3. make sure you have done the abyss miniquest to access it. 4. The zamorak mage in the wildy will teleport you to the abyss. Take a pickaxe with you to speed it up. 5. Abyss has an outer ring and a inner ring. The outer ring is where mosters are, and where you will be teleported to, where on the ring is random. There are paths that allow you to go from the outer to the inner ring, although majority of them will have an obstacle. These obstacles usually requires your skills to get pass, such as agility or thieving. there are 2 special passes though. The pass nearest to you when you teleport to the abyss will ALWAYS be completely blocked, you cannot get through it. the pass that is furthest away from you is complete free, you dont need any skills to get past it. 6. Once you reach the inner ring, there will be gates called rifts. Clicking on these rifts will allow you to teleport immediately that crafting altar. Take heed that there are 4 special rifts that not everybody can just get in. The Law rift requires the completion of Troll Stronghold, and you must not be wearing or carrying any armor or weapons. The death rift is only accessible after the completion of Mourning's Ends Part 2. 7. When you enter a rift of your choice, you will be brought right beside the crafting altar. HOWEVER, you are now physically in that altar, so if you exit it by using the portal (like you would if you craft normally), you will not end back in the abyss. So if you picked air rift, and took the portal out after you crafted, you will end up south of falador. This is why glory amulet is needed. 8. finally, a few things you should note. The abyss monsters drops pouches that increase the speed of rc by allowing you to carry more essence. you may only use 1 of each type of pouches. Over some usage, some pouches may start to turn black and hold less ess. The solution is go to the abyss, and head into the inner ring where the rifts are. once you are there, there is an NPC called dark mage in the middle, he will restore your pouches for you. Hope that helped

ALWAYS use the abyss for chaos, because that altar is a pain in the rear to get to, and the fact its also in the wildy doesnt help it. Just in case you dont know, once you enter the ruins leading to the chaos altar, you need to go through a very long maze to get to the altar (it might still be there, might not). Use of Glory is very much needed due to the presence of that maze.

I found this to work reasonably well Find the price range of ores, such as iron or coal say. Buy them at a price HIGHER than its minimu value, and sell it LOWER than its max. So say buy coal at 160 ea and sell for 190ea or something. You dont earn as much, but you earn it faster.

And the set effect is : When the effect kicks in, your opponent's armor is treated as not there for that hit, so the set is much more accurate against armored foes than otherwise.

thanks, but its a well known fact...

for that matter, if you leave the cavern when it shakes, it resets.

Is it just me or is the teleport random event has increased in frequency dramatically?

yes, if you fail an agility obstacle, you will dropped to a cavern below, if you get out of there by a stairs, you will appear right before all the obstacles, just beside the stairs from the shack

yes, but DONT recharge prayer at that altar, that altar is trapped that when you pray at it, you are dropped to the cave below and you become poisoned. do this only if you have anti poison pots.
