So you mean there are no safe spots for ranging down there?

NVM, thanks all.

Oh! That's another answer, click 2h then the target... even without seeing the 2h in my hands? I'll try that. Could be a bit slower than full-automatic switch but sounds safer... :-k

So I heard. Yes, it is the second time I got the answer - switch when "pull back your bow". Do I have to adjust the timing based on my Internet connection speed? And does camera angle affect that visual effect? What camera angle do you use?

How do you switch to R2H from Bow, and swing immediately at the target without waiting or click again? I've been doing this practice for a while but still can't get it right. :wall: Is there anything to do with Internet connection? Auto-retaliate? Or anything that affects the after-switch effect?

Give me the advice please. I'm asking for a new RS char. I created. Poor me, forgot how to survive the early ages. :oops:

1. Do monsters in the maze drop items/runes? I remember Ghosts don't. What about the Skeletons? 2. Is there anyway to get out from the maze before finishing all the floors? What if I can't Teleport? Can I walk back and get out from the entrance? 3. Are the monsters there tough? Does it cost a lot of food to stay there?

Tiara is the Silver Crafting Product with highest XP - 52.5 each, the total Crafting XP you'll get from 2k Silver would be 105K. Still no much. Besides, crafting silver takes a Furnace and the process is slow. Believe me, I just smelted and crafted 7k silver ores into bars then into Tiaras. It was a long time drudgery. If I were you, I'd sell these silver in good bulk price, and buy cowhides in normal / nooby price. I guess that'd make you 2.5 - 3 times more of Cowhides in hand. Make them into Hard Leather Armor (35 XP each). Even better, you can sew and walk at the same time! Think about how much more of XP that will give you, and how much time you could save.

Very easy. All you want is get to 40 att and use rune scimmy right? Kill Minotaurs in Stronghold Level 1, those will give you quick XP and a lot of iron arrows. Or, you could kill Al Kharid Warriors in Al Kharid Palace, that a multi-combat place and attack on one is attack on all, so very fast XP too. Good luck.

Cool. Here are some questions: I'm a Level 90 Ranger, F2P only. 1. Where's the best place for me to train my range now? 2. What'd be the best training bow for that spot? Maple Short or Willow Comp? 3. I'm an overall main so my CB is already high. I have 70 Def. already. Now, to make this char more successful in PKing with range, is it better to maintain this Def. Level or train it up to 90? 4. Are the new Range Enhancing Prayers useful? In what way? Thanks in advance. =D>

geez. i almost forgot all the basics... sure... killing chicken in lumby now. what about higher level? like 40+ or 50+? any non-fishing products good to cook and quick to prepare?

Can anyone think of a way to bring up cooking from Level 1 without fishing? Buying bulk of raw fish / lobs are not feasible now... No enough GP to do that and no enough level to cook successfully either...

Thanks again um_bong0. I read your guide in Player Made Guides once again, and confirmed that the very first article I read about this was yours. =D> I reviewed all "Buy Air" post issued Jan. 8 on official forum, you're right, there are a lot of 20ea buyers! \ This is indeed good news, and clearing my doubts.

no. I'm a sole F2Per.

I think I've read your guide, or maybe someone else's... That's the first time I heard of Air Running and how it works. Thank you very much, and I guess I've learned 2 facts to my questions: 1. Start Air Running at RC44 is feasible. 2. Starting price to sell Airs could be 15 ea... And it could be lowered at very high level when many more Airs come out of 1 Ess. \

sure, i have them in my bank. okay... that'll take me 1-2 days.

Great reference, thanks a lot! 1 more question: when did you start your Air Crafting / Running business? Around RC44 or RC55?

How long does it take to smelt 4k silver in Al Kharid? (in hours?) And how long does it take to craft 4k silver bars to tiara? Best weight - 0 kg, running back and forth

Correct me if I'm wrong. I observe that the bulk price of Air Runes is like 12-14ea. However, I also feel that Air Rune selling is kind of time consuming. As Air Rune is the lowest level rune in RS world, drops from monters / RC rates are high, and it is NOT the essential rune for Mage Power Training. So I assume that there's already a bigger supply than demand? Say, World 16's open offer is like "2K gp + ess" (those who offer lower or paying by Air Rune are not getting workers as efficiently) - which is equivalant to 80gp per ess, ignoring the difference of buying ess or mining ess. At Level 44 RC, you get 5 Airs out of 1 Ess. Thus, the cost of each Air could be calc'ed as 80/5 = 16. Now here are the questions: 1. Will people buy large bulks of Air at 16ea? If not, what was the highest price ever seen? 2. What's the definition of large bulk of Air Runes? 10K? 50K? or what? 3. Is the price of Air Rune significantly different between F2P and P2P world? Thanks for your patience and time! :)

Thank you. Yeah, I just found out that every wielded item has "Operate" option... Any other F2P item that I can "operate"?

When you wield your bone scepter, then right click it, there's an option - "Operate". What does it do? Is it same to "Invoke" that teleports you to Barb. Village?

Thanks again all above! I'm getting back on my feet now. First I need to sell something to get a little 100k FTW. :oops:

So what is changed about R7 and 9?

Thanks for the timely and concise information. Makes me really happy. :D Great. I didn't miss much. Thanks a million! Saved my hundred Ks of GP... stick to maple short then. Nuh... I don't feel like acting like a reindeer. :thumbsup: Hmm... That's something to think about... I'll carry on my Tiara crafting business, craft all emeralds and sapphs, get my Crafting Skill to 70 and make some Power Ammys to sell, but leave the cut rubies alone. Good advice. Thanks.

Dear all, I've been away for about 3 months and I'm feeling a bit out of the loop. Some of you might remember a go-getter Level 90 Ranger like me, but anyway :D The last time I logged on was Halloween, 2006 - the heavy skeleton outfit and the stupid pumpkin head. So did I miss much? Questions: 1. Any crucial F2P-related updates occured since Halloween, 2006? New Items? New Places? New Quests? Rule Change etc... just brief me about it or post me a link so I can check it out myself. 2. I saw Willow Comp. Bow... looks cool, but... what's the point of this item in F2P? Is it better than Maple Short for training / pking? What's the best F2P bow for the time being? 3. What was the Christmas Reward? I missed Runescape Christmas because of limited Internet access... so, just let me know whether it is fancy, cool-looking :) Finally, a question about Crafting and Merchanting: I was bored of mining months ago and that night, with a bad mood, I spent all my GPs buying uncuts. Now I have less than 30K GPs but over 100 cut-diamonds, rubies, etc. I will be making them into ammy's and I will enchant them myself. I will be having thousands of unenchanted tiaras as well by the time I reach my Crafting goal. So... What should I do with all these stuff, especially more than 100 Power Ammys and Str Ammys and about 10K Tiaras? Is there a potential bulk selling market for this or I will have to shout and sell in W1? Thanks so much for your time and patience. P.S. I am in Asia now and my internet connection to North America is unstable due to the latest earthquake. :ohnoes: Can't RS too much.
