Black Demons
The fastest way without a cannon would be to pray and melee them. If you don't mind it taking a bit longer, you can easily safespot them in the Chaos Tunnels.

Dragon Sq vs Toktz-Ket-Xil
It's for the strength bonus.

Iron Dragons O.o
Apparently someone never noticed that the dungeon is single combat, which means you can't steal a kill from someone once they've started fighting a dragon. I've never seen the place so crowded that this would be a problem, especially since Jagex added the new areas for killing metals.

stackin bonuses
But the 5% gain is not worth the stat loss of a fury (Maybe not even worth a glory). What about the +10% from the salve(e)? SInce really, you'd be a fool to not enchant the ammy. (Sorry, I mean +10% OVER the black mask.) The black mask is 15% and the salve(e) is 20%, so it's 5% more.

Max hit vs average hit
That'd be giving it a min hit of +1. I do believe you are much further off than I. Also, to simplify, but not prove, n/2+.5, as per observation of the ratio. A mathematical proof of this result: The mean of a set of n values is defined to be the sum of the values divided by n. Since the sum of the integers from 1 to n is n(n + 1) / 2, the average of these values is thus: n(n + 1) / (2n) = (n + 1) / 2 = n/2 + 1/2. Sorry, I'm feeling a little mathy tonight. :geek:

Max hit vs average hit
I agree. It seems to me like I hit for higher numbers more often than lower numbers. Btw, this would mean it's skewed to the left. No, he's right. Assuming equal probability of all possibilities from 1 to 30, the expected value (or average) is (1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 30) / 30 = 465 / 30 = 15.5.

WGS Req Help - Urgently needed!
I boosted farming, herblore, and magic to start the quest and then never had to boost them again. If you've done Throne of Miscellania, you can still use MTK to gather herbs. Royal Trouble isn't required; it just helps to make more money. You should definitely look into penguin points. In RSOF under 'Distractions and Diversions' you can find a thread put up by Team Penguin every week with all the penguins' locations. The thread will be titled 'penguin locations v_' where the _ is the number of weeks it's been since the penguin spies were released. Another option for herblore that hasn't been mentioned yet is cleaning herbs. If you can stand the repetitive clicking it's decent exp and typically breaks even (prices can vary, of course). Also, if farming or herblore is currently your lowest skill, you can use Tears of Guthix to get free exp in it once a week.

fire cape help
k snakeskin and preselyte, ill keep whip in case of necessity if the healers get too annyoing.. what shall i put in the invo instead of the rocktail and the range pot? Someone else will have to answer this because I'm too cheap to use brews and restores.

fire cape help
The sweets aren't really needed since the run update as long as you have decent agility. I would forget the whip and just go with range the whole way. You should replace the dragon legs with verac's or proselyte so you use fewer prayer points, and snakeskin boots > dragon boots for fight caves. You've got plenty of bolts; I don't understand why everyone says bring at least 1500. I only use about 300. Don't worry if it takes you a few tries to kill Jad; that's perfectly normal. Good luck!

Karamja Achievement Diary
With an enhanced excalibur, I can get to the 360's without using a single dose of potion. Just fill your inventory with food and you'll be fine if that's all you're going for.

spine of a giant snake
All right, I finally got it. Thank you!

spine of a giant snake
I'm trying to get a snake spine to complete the wish list for Fur n Seek, but I've killed dozens of snakes now and still have no luck. I've tried the big snakes on crash island, the sea snake young in the Miscellania dungeon, and the snakes on Mos le Harmless. How can I get one? I've checked my bank and it is not there.

Z Necklace?
You can only re-obtain it from him if you got one in the first place, meaning you sided with the cultists during the quest.

Battered Key
Are you getting the book from your POH bookshelf or the one in Seers' Village? The one in Seers' always gives me the key with the book, even though I have it on my keyring.
-
going for fire cape (again)
If you have curses, I would suggest using them because the damage they do to Jad really adds up. I found it easier to just kill the healers rather than try to lure them because the curses continued to damage Jad even when I wasn't attacking him, which ensured he was nowhere near full health when I finished killing the healers.

a narrow hole in the wall
This is what does it. For some reason, a lot of people have trouble with this until they stand back and then try it.

Getting Mobilising Armies Ranks Fast
I was in their cc when getting 300+ rank, but there were rarely even 4 ppl in the cc. Plus you usually get at least 1 noob that brings in heavies, so it just doesn't work. You're much better off just playing solo and suiciding. This combined with the fact that there's only one world (world 76) in which you can play MA without at least 20 people makes Fast MA completely defunct. If you could get 20+ people together to play, you could play on your own world and thus avoid crashers, but otherwise you can't rely on Fast MA's strategy.

Subtle References
'Malak' in Hebrew literally means 'messenger'. It's typically translated as 'angel' because the angels are God's messengers. Also, in Seers' Village you have Sincere (Sin Seer). Here, the name seems to fill two purposes at once. I seem to recall a Monty Python reference in there somewhere, but I can't remember where I saw it.

Fastest way to Oo'glog?
Another option is to use fairy ring code akq and then run south.

Prayer Switching Guide for TzTok-Jad
The F-buttons is not specially for TzTok-Jad only, it can be used anywhere. So i figured that if your aware of the F-Buttons and use them, that you will use it at Jad also. Good luck on Jad :thumbup: And yet not everyone knows about them, so I think it would be good to mention them. Personally, learning about the F-buttons was the key to me finally beating Jad.

Varrock Medium DIary
I got quest cape and 168/173 Kudos, thanks for the advice, I'll check some guides to see what pendant you are talking about. After you start the Temple of Senntisten and Ali tells you to go talk to Dr. Nabanik, if you ask Ali for help in getting there he'll give you a digsite pendant. That's what he was talking about.

WTH was that?!?!?!?!! [Must Read]
Thanks its 39 now tho =P UPDATE ON EVENT: "A supernatural Force Draws Energy From You" That happens when a ghast attacks you in Mort Myre. It's not new. On a side note, I wasn't logged in at the time it seems that the 'strange power' message came to everyone, and I haven't had it since then. If it weren't for these forums, I probably would never have known about it.

Hunt for Surok
Once you've gone through the route, you don't need to do it again. You can just go straight to where Bork is.

Question about barrows
Just to be nitpicky, it's actually 6 minutes. Just go to Keldagrim, visit the stonemason (I believe, not 100% sure which NPC it is) and buy the highest level one he has. It'll seem like a lot of money, but it's worth it if you ever die with anything expensive on you. Thanks for correcting me, I thought it was 5, I learn something new every day! It used to be 5, but then they extended all the gravestones by a minute, making it 6.

Adventure logs
I had a leaf-bladed sword show up on the log. EDIT: As a matter of fact, it's still there.
