The Giant Mole -> effective for getting nests?
The only truly effective way to combat the Giant Mole is to use melee. It has high mage and range defense, so those aren't good options; not to mention a waste of money. I've been killing it since I was in the low 80s in combat, so you should be able to do it very easily. My suggestion to you would be to make sure you've poisoned it before it hits half health. Once it gets down to half-life, it'll start burrowing away, and you'll have to chase it down. Whilst fighting it, keep Protect from Melee on, and wear Prayer bosting gear. With a little bit of running, some energy pots possibly, and a few well placed hits, she'll be dead. Once you've killed her.. take her claws and hides to Martin (methinks) in the Falador Park, and trade them in for nests! I'd say it's a very effective way of getting nests if you prefer combat. ~Lunar (sorry for the long post)

which skill cape
Liek, OMG! Jake is a mod?! Hax hax! Lol.. But really, it's up to you. If you want something that has a return, then get 99 Fletching. The downside to that is that it's so common nowadays.. You sacrifice skill for "popularity" or "originality". If you want a cool looking cape and emote (in my opinion), then go for the Firemaking Cape. As you've already found out, not as many people have that one. More of a status symbol than fletching is really. ~Lunar

need answer to my question
He posted that while it was in a different forum. I just moved it 8-) And P2P means "pay to play", otherwise a membership. F2P means "free to play", otherwise the free version of the game. ~Lunar

Backpack that picks up steel arrows?
Yar, last night. And don't worry, the quest seems pretty straightforward to me. ~Lunar

Backpack that picks up steel arrows?
Well.. when did you change my name to Junar? Lol.. and my modship was announced last night. Thanks for noticing! 8-) And the quest shouldn't be too hard; I'm sure you can do it! ~Lunar

Backpack that picks up steel arrows?
You'll get Ava's Attractor from the quest initially, which "finds" and gives you iron things. If you have over 50 range, you can upgrade it to the Ava's Accumulator, which picks up steel things. These can be steel arrows, knives, and things of the such. ~Lunar

the new dream for slayers (cannonning trolls! )
Oh, I see now what he's talking about. I misread the post and thought he was suggesting a new quest with these things. I assume he is talking about the new Fremenik Isle quest? If so, that's just a misreading on my part. I have no powers in this forum, so we'll have to wait for another mod to move it. Sorry for the misunderstanding! ~Lunar

the new dream for slayers (cannonning trolls! )

f2p range pures monsters
I'd say once you hit about 20 or 30 range, go train on Minotaurs for the duration of your range-training. They drop lots of iron arrows that will more than make up for the ones you lose whilst ranging. At 20, I'd say start with the lower leveled once close to the entrance. At 30, move on up to the level 27 Minotaurs in the far southwest corner. There's a safespot in the room so you'll need little or no food. ~Lunar

fire giants
I would say Brimhaven Dungeon either way. It's usually uncrowded, with one or two people at the most. There's a safespot for ranging, and possibly for halberding, for all three of the southern-most giants in the caves. ~Lunar

Best way to make money while semi afk?
You'll only get sharks. They both use harpoons, but Sharks are located at a different fishing spot. You get Sharks from the fishing spot that has a Harpoon and Net option. You'll get tuna and swordfish from fishing spots that have Cage and Harpoon options. ~Lunar

Best way to make money while semi afk?
If you're going for money, then you'll want to fish sharks. But if you want fast experience and inexspensive training food, then go with Monkfish. ~Lunar

Gem Restocking
Yar, those posts are both right.. kinda-sorta. As you may know, some specialty shops have a "placeholder" item there. It is only in-stock when someone sells that item to the store. So I'm guessing your issue is that the Diamond you're wanting to buy is just a "placeholder", and you'd be better off buying one off another player/mining it/thieving it from the Rogues Den. ~Lunar

Monkey Madness Help: How do I get Back?
If you want to get back to the island, go upstairs and talk to Daero next to Burberry's Bar. He'll blindfold you and take you to the hangar, where you'll take a glider to Crash Island. After you get to Crash Island, talk to the other Gnome there and head on over to Ape-Atoll. ~Lunar

Best way to make money while semi afk?
With your stats, I would say fishing lobsters would be your best bet for mindless training. Also, if you get your woodcutting up, you could chop yews once you get to about 70-75. Chopping willows and doing homework at the same time isn't the best idea; the trees go down to fast, you'll end up sitting there doing nothing (in-game) 60% of the time. So.. just go with fishing at the moment. After you fish, you could cook, but that's not as easy to multi-task with as fishing is. ~Lunar

Required Levels and Price Check on 3rd Age Mage
According to a post on the official forums, the prices are They should be something similar to that if you go into w2 looking to buy some. The requirements to wear 3rd Age armour are to have 30 defense, and 65 magic (not to mention a lot of cash). Also, I'm going to go ahead and lock this. For future reference, use the Armour/Clothing/Weapons Marketplace Boards for Price Checks. ~Lunar <~Locked~>

Skull Scepter
With some decent food, and determination, you'll be able to get it. You could try ranging the Ankous, but it wouldn't kill them very fast. Once they stop being aggressive, there's a good safespot in there. The first two levels should be pretty easy. Just bring a full load of food and whack away. The third room (with Catoblepan [sp?]) will be a tad harder, but you'll be able to do it eventually. Just watch your health against the Ankous when you get there and you'll be fine. ~Lunar

Fletching Question
Knives you can get anywhere. If you find a crowded F2P world, you could probably buy logs from a general store. There is a fletching store in Catherby, owned by Lowe (methinks). And all arrows are made from normal logs. Each log you cut gets you 15 arrowshafts. After you have the shafts, you need to attach feathers to them, and then put the heads on. It's pretty straightforward, really. Have fun in members! ~Lunar

Choas Gantlets
I'm pretty sure that everytime you change them, it's 25k. The quest guide says that they will charge you a fee everytime it's changed for you. I didn't see anywhere where it said the price would vary. ~Lunar
-
Choas Gantlets
You're not-not wrong.. :) I'm pretty sure the prices are the same. I haven't tried for the Goldsmith Gauntlets, but both Cooking and Chaos are 25k each. Don't see a reason for the third to be any different. ~Lunar

low herblore
Prayer pots or Super Attacks are a good bet methinks. Try those. It's even more profitable if you gather the materials for yourself. ~Lunar

Choas Gantlets
To get it changed into chaos gauntlets, you'll need to talk to the brother in the upstairs of the pub next to the Varrock Wilderness. The fee is 25k.
