Is it worth converting energy then getting the bonus xp or is converting the energy first a waste of time? Are the chronicles worth handing in? Anyone know how much more xp you get from handing in to guthix altar compared to the spot in Draynor?

How crazy would everyone think I was if I told you at the beginning of the month that as of today no one would have reached 5b xp due to a colossal melt by the leading contender AND you would be able to play '07scape courtesy of Jagex? Cocoa puffs

I eventually just gave in realizing that they will get to the 500k tier of votes or will just allow for that level of support to happen no matter what the outcome. Plus, I hear fools are paying exorbitant prices for the exchange of gold from 07scape to the real game so why not help myself while I'm at it.

Sounds messy.

So where can these kinds of trades be requested at since they don't allow it on the main RS forums?

Pretty much. It would be sweet if they gave a worthwhile % bonus to trades goods for the last warehouse but that would be beneficial and we'd hate to see that.

Hopefully they do I haven't seen anyone higher than 9 yet.

Has anyone seen a crew member level 10 or higher yet?

The best thing to do is slap on soothsayers and cap out your random rewards so you can work the system and get adventure re-rolls for 800 jade each. Even if you fail a couple you still get 3 - 4 times more than you would on normal missions.

I'm abusing the shit out of adventure re-rolls and it's helping immensely getting the required jade for the 4th ship. Thank god for capped random rewards.

If you have an Opportunist on board this will still unlock the new crew member.

Why would you do that? As far as I'm aware the tradeable version degrades to nothingness after 10(or however many hours it is) and that's it. Whereas the Superior version can be repaired and has marginally better stats. For cash money

Interestingly, you can return with partial success on a trait mission and still get the trait. That's great news. I just sent out my 10k morale captain on a 76% chance mission for the Awe-inspiring trait and one of the crew members has Opportunist.

I'm not sure the exact percentage but it does exactly what it says. If you fail a mission you still come back with some loot just not ALL of it.

I have 4 10k captains. I'll trade you one for a better jade mission.

Finally get into the bowl today, perfect timing for my bairmaid's tip and she gives me 350 gunpowder. What a wench!

I meant the Siren and Chimera were already better than the golem in the next region making them irrelevant but since the Witch has seafaring and morale then the jade golem has more of a use going into the Bowl than the other golems had in previous regions.

I don't use golems for their special ability, but I've found the Chimeras' combat/morale stat combo to be pretty useful from time to time, and Jade Golems are a stat upgrade from Chimeras. Both the Sea Witch and Jade Golem have 1050 base stat points compared to the 1000 of standard Bowl crew members. Yeah I wasn't thinking specials either but now that I look at the chart I could see the use for them in this region. Prior regions always had the specialized class with better stats than the golem going into it so it seemed irrelevant but this time since the witch has morale and seafaring instead of morale and combat there could be a use for them here.

I think that's your best setup except drop the golem and add another sea witch. I've never owned a golem and think they are a waste.

I only use the important ones, i.e. voyage re-rolls, adventure re-rolls and captain re-rolls and that's the only rewards I have been receiving from events. At this point I've never received a message stating that I have reached my cap in any particular effect and that's after 3-4 random events. Is that dumb luck or do you only receive that max message after EVERYTHING is capped?

Has anyone had any luck after the patch at maxing out their unwanted effects at 3x and continue to get only good effects from random events? I have all my rewards capped except adventure re-rolls, voyage re-rolls and visiting captain and as long as I use them before my next random event I continue to only receive those as rewards.

No. It will add a new trait on until he reaches the max of 4 but he will never lose one.

Word on the street is the Cherrywood Tree only gives an additional 1% boost to rewards.

I don't believe it changes your chances it just allocates that scroll type when you complete a scroll mission.

Trade goods, scrolls and special crew missions give +50% distance traveled compared to a standard voyage, however, they give a +50% time increase, too.
