I should probably get one of these then. Don't have anywhere near enough money to maintain SoA and since PPS seems to be effective against metals and I'm not in a rush for mage xp, sounds like the perfect weapon for maging. Hopefully it'll drop a little more before I purchase then :P

I suppose yes that's true, but the brooch itself is pretty much cosmetic. I would consider it a minor and point and the DAA is still largely useless (in fact I got a little annoyed whenever I got a brooch during temple runs lol)

So the main things SoL still has going for it is fire surge on glacors/ice strykes, rune saving w/ battlerobes, and the spec? Is that about right?

That seems very encouraging. SoL drop in price makes a lot of sense then. Are sticks common enough such that they'll drop much further than they are now (say, stabilize around 2.5m)?

Ignoring cases like icestrykes and glacors, where is PPS superior to, or at least very close to, SoL + fire surge in terms of DPS? Does the PPS hit well against metals?

@alg Added thanks @Troacctid That is a good point, though I still feel like the cost and time to gain the kit justifies an update of sorts. I suppose Golden hammer is really just a cosmetic thing and the wieldable hammer nature was really just a small perk. @Promise Watering cans can't be put on the belt anyway since I think it would be awkward to try it fill up a regular one. The crystal saw is a bit of a different beast altogether since I don't think it's overly practical to train construction with it (ofc I don't actually know how long it takes to charge, so I could be entirely wrong) and it's mainly for the boost to make certain things like altars and the like.

I have finally been able to get some good data on enhanced heal other, unlocked from temple trekking Smiddi Ryak to level 99. I would say that both the lunar magicks and temple trekking pages be updated with this data. With a great amount help and patience from the_korny, I was able to test this spell. Both of us had the enhanced spell. Data Starting LP 411 Ending LP 585 Healed for 174 Starting LP 180 Ending LP 45 Damaged for 135 Improvement of 28.89% in heal, 0 change in damage Starting LP 585 Ending LP 148 Damaged for 437 Starting LP 50 Ending LP 608 Healed for 558 Improvement of 27.69% in heal, 0 change in damage Starting LP 154 Ending LP 739 Healed for 585 Starting LP 615 Ending LP 152 Damaged for 463 Improvement of 26.67% in heal, 0 change in damage. Conclusion Thus I believe unlocking the enhanced heal other spell increases the LP heal of the spell by round 27%. The damage portion of the spell remains unchanged with the enhancement. Notes -spell can only be cast if recipient is not at max LP -if 0.75(max caster lp)*1.27 > recipient missing LP, then the caster will only lose LP equivalent to the recipients LP and the recipient will be full healed -can only be cast in multiway -I believe the variances in the percentages are due to reporting errors due to LP restoring so quickly, causing slight inaccuracies in reporting staring and ending LP values. However, there is still a chance there could be another small factor I am missing -I found out that I am awful at planning things ahead and should design tests more thoroughly before attempting them. Thanks again to korny for being so patient

I'm curious as to what items/NPCs have now become obsolete due to the addition of the tool belt. I have so far: Barb-tail Harpoon DAA Tackle Box (I suppose you could argue that it still saves the spaces for gloves, multiple baits, and the oily fishing rod) Cast nets Largely Outdated Quest Kit Tool Leperchuan I don't really count the items that go on the toolbox since you are still technically using them, but the items above don't seem to have any use now.

SC tools *do* override toolbelt, right? Otherwise, I'm going to be able to store soooo many more effigies with this update :shades: Also how does the tool belt affect things like quests where you have to use a tool on a spot? (eg. using chisel on gem throne, pickaxe on wall, mix random ingredients). Have all of those been accounted for? Have there been any mod posts about removal of items?

gz on royale :thumbup:

If you're close to being able to do glacors, definitely do those. They're probably one of the best overall things to hunt as they have good effigy and charm rates as well as decent steady income, along with a chance to get rare drops.

I don't know what magic accuracy is necessary on ganodermics, but I think the main purpose of mage void is only so you have a quick switch for decent magic attack when you're hybriding. Ahrim's, even with some Akrisae, should beat mage void in most scenarios. I also think 40 prayer bonus is a little overkill. You could probably just do full Ahrims, though you could try pure Akrisae and have prayer sustain.

The boost is only +6 while the CD is 7 mins, so they'd only get 1 min of casting :unsure: What would I cast that needs 96 magic? I thought I was using ice/blood barrage which are 92 and 94? So I'll wear what Quyneax said except I'll wear ardy 3 till I get around to sw cape. Once I'm there I just kill supreme then prime then lure and kill rex right? Would tribrid killing all 3 be efficent without yak, ss and overloads? Whoops. I've had getting 96 for bookswap on the mind on top of getting 94 for ice barrage lately so I flubbed there #-o Even then, you would still have 4 minutes of downtime for casting ice, although you could probably just straight blood barrage for those two minutes, but that still leaves around 2-3 mins of downtime. I personally view the vecna only as a damage booster like chenw says as using it to reach higher spell will always leave you not being able to cast that spell for at least a minute.

If only it had a good use, like the case so many other skills in the game.

Perhaps it's only a product of certain setups in resizeable/fullscreen? I know it definitely wouldn't happen in fixed, which is all that I play in.

I think it would be cool to have a pet dreadnip irl

// Unnecessary dbaggery// So yeah it was specified: space = click to continue numbers = options Good to know. I suppose I should actually read the updates in their entirety before making comments. Truthfully, I didn't care too much about this particular update and obviously did not read through it that closely, but seeing as I had just finished ME and how people were talking about using the spacebar to skip text, I drew the connection and made some speculations.

I don't think he needs that much more luck any anyone else going for max/comp cape. After all, we were all at his level at some point. I wonder how many effigies you'll have by the time you can open them all.

Technically, that is what harpies are. In fact, I wonder if there are such a thing as male harpies in mythology. According to D&D lore, males exist and also have breasts. Source There's also some other links that suggest that males and females are one in the same and there are others that say harpies are able to reproduce with only females, but those aren't in Wiki form so I'm sticking with D&D.

After just finishing ME1 and 2, I know navigating through chat with spacebar will certainly feel a lot more...natural? I would assume when you get multiple options it forces you to click, though it would be interesting if it automatically selected whatever your mouse was hovered over. Would make things like repairing pouches a little easier :thumbup:

I just remembered there's a data/metagaming section on the forums after posting. I apologize to the mods for not putting it there first, but seeing as more people check HA, could I leave it here for the time being?

I just got 92 magic and I would like to test the Lunar spell Heal Other and its enhanced version. Specifically, I would like to get confirmation on how much Heal Other damages the user and how much it heals the recipient and then do some testing with its upgraded counterpart since there doesn't seem to be any publicized data on it (if someone does have concrete data on it that would be good and I can halt this investigation). Tip.it, RSWiki, and Currently-a-Joke Runescape Wiki all do not have information on the topic. The basic Heal Other spell looks like this according to various resources 92 Magic 3 laws, 3 astrals, 1 blood Transfers up to 75% of caster's current HP to target Notes: -cannot be cast if <11% of max HP -recipient does not get overhealed (eg. Caster with 1000 current LP casts it onto a target with only 100 LP missing, caster loses 750 LP to heal target for 100 LP) An upgrade for this spell is supposedly achieved when one levels Smiddi Ryak from Temple Trekking to level 99. The reward is supposed to improve both the spells of both you and Smiddi to damage for less and heal for more. I would like the assistance of about two people to help test that possess the following requirements: 92 Magic Completed Lunar Diplomacy One person who has leveled Smiddi Ryak to 99 in temple trekking and one person who has not Around level 89 Constitution is preferable since I don't know how much the enhanced version heals for The user of the basic spell only needs to cast once so I can see the functionality of basic heal other. I want to do several transfers with the person who has the enhanced version. The reason I'm looking for another person who has the enhanced version is because it allows for quicker tests. The whole process should only take about 5-10 mins. I'll supply all runes. Post or PM if interested. Thanks, Sinkhan

We do have flying wings though, or at least some sort of floating.

Are the eyes a part of the aura? That's pretty cool. Do auras still show when you do emotes? (Prayer cape :-k)
