Farming?!?!?
Orange trees (papaya if you have access to them) and willows are probably the best trees you can do for profit.

Help me rebuild my armor setup!
Since you're probably not going to be able to get 80+ dungeoneering that quickly, the whip and rune defender is probably the only guaranteed piece of melee gear you'll want right now. As morning said, almost everything else is left up to what you plan on doing.

Anybody know the minimum amount of.....
I see little truth in this. With 6k+ rating myself, I play against sub 1k ranked players all the time.

Battle robes
I just realized you could make 2-3 mil an hour playing FoG. :shock:

Justin Bieber
I'm going to have to take a similar stance as saruman. I don't necessarily support him, but I honestly think that some of the comments and jokes made are somewhat unwarranted. It's threads like these that just further my belief that the subject of music and its performers can reach up to the same levels of controversy and debate as religion, politics, and sex. People can just seem so passionate about a cause that they will defend their stance to the very end and will be willing to take extreme measures. It is for that reason that I always find it very difficult to post about topics like these. My own SNSD thread I started a while back received a battery of unjustified insults and attacks. Just a simple and harmless posting about a particular group I had an interest in brought in a whole slew of comments from different sides. It is a nice thought that a great deal of prejudice has evaporated from our world in the last couple hundred years, but have people completely changed? Absolutely not. The world is still rife with prejudice and ridicule for a plethora of reasons and factors, some having better grounds than others. People on the street still discriminate against others and only more so on the Internet. I've been racially discriminated against in school not only by peers, but even by teachers before. Surfing the web, it can be certainly hard to discern a "funny joke" to a genuine spouting of deep-seeded hate. In my own experience in investigating STAND material (specifically anti-SNSD people), it runs from anything like little comments about how a member might have a bad personality to an outright and often unjustified bashing of the group. All in all, some of the stuff on the Internet is just pure poison, meant to taint and corrupt and nothing else. The veil of anonymity that the net grants people has been incredibly empowering to many. I'm confident that a great deal of the bullying, flaming, and outright trolling on the Internet would not happen at all if those people had to face the other parties involved. The very quality of these interactions, to have little or no direct and immediate consequence and the ability to just slip away when your computer is turned off or smartphone is slipped into your pocket, has been a huge driving force. Uh... Huh... :blink: What was I talking about? :mellow:

Annoying players
You're going to have to get used to the fact that most people on online games are going to be guys and skeptical that there are girls out there. I would not be surprised in the slightest if there are more guys playing as girl avatars than there are genuine girls playing at all. Thus, people are going to throw accusations that you're just a guy playing out their fantasy by having a female character. Also lol at comic. Pokemon :thumbup:

Range Dungeoneering?
Ranged is pretty underpowered in dg unless you get your hands on the hexhunter bow. Bind sagittarian arrows and a sagittarian bow, grave creeper and promethium until you can find them as drops. I also think desperado might be your best bet for ring upgrades, but I haven't used it yet.

Why can't F2P have...?
I always have a few spots open, even when doing multiple skills. Like I said, it IS easily manageable (it just takes some sacrifices). And if you can't fit everything into 78 spaces, you should rethink some of your items. Those few spots are for when I get my mime costume back, though. It most certainly is. I've played F2P long enough to know that 68 was definitely doable and you just had to put every item you had under scrutiny. My (outdated but still relevant) banking guide goes over a lot of the things you can do to save spaces. I managed to have 3-8 free slots at any given time as a pure F2P member while still being in the mid 60s and 70s in most skills and having necessary and convenient items. 10 spaces certainly does help though. It removes the necessity of some of my bank saving tricks, like item setting.

Farming
I second everything troacctid said with a few additional notes: 1. Pineapple trees are one of the best trees gp/xp trees right now at around 2gp/xp while still giving a decent amount. 2. The rule is to see if the payment is worth 10% or less than the seed cost. 4. Plant marigolds. Seeds are dirt cheap and a flower is worth more than 3 limpwurts, the second best.

P2P -> F2P
Where in F2P does everyone fish for swordies and lobsters? Karamja. How do you get there? Port Sarim boat. What's near there? Fishing store. Every time you have the feeling to go to Karamja for fishing, bring an extra 5-20 GP. Simple and easy. Banana's are only worth 200 GP each and they would take a pretty long time to bank. You'd be saving less than 70k an hour by collecting bananas. Just do yourself a favour and drop them now and buy them when you need them :rolleyes:

Bursting Rock Lobsters
It takes more than three hours. I'm pretty good at FoG and I was using pro gear with nearly maxed stats, but it still took about 5 hours, maybe more. I pretty much managed this in F2P. I averaged around 300 tokens an hour. The trick is to know when you've won and then stop taking bandages and using prayers at that point and then die quicker. If you start as hunted, it then takes some guess work, but I'd say 70% of the people there train magic, so you should be good anyway. Could you help me find one of these people then? I'd be almost willing to pay 10 for just the top.

Banshee's
Banshees with darts is not bad, but there are more fun things to do training ranged. Cannoning aberrant spectres with a rune xbow + broads for KOs is actually pretty fun and quite profitable. Tons of ranged xp too.
-
Bursting Rock Lobsters
Been 10m for the past few weeks. B Robes last quite a long time. Even on F2P it shouldn't take more than an hour to recharge them. F2P FoG is easy, all about skill there. Really? I've seen sales for just the top go for 15m

Bursting Rock Lobsters
~30 mil at last check.

P2P -> F2P
Maple shortbow > sighted longbow for training. The monsters that are the best to train on don't require you to be in full rune all the time, even less if you safespot. He's expressed interest in doing ice giants. They'd be much easier if he just tanked ranged and didn't bother with safespots.

P2P -> F2P
Let's clean up your bank first: You definitely don't need: Shears Harpoon Lobster Pot Wool Banana Defence Ammy You have to realize that while you have the slots for them due to you having had a members account, you should try and cut down all the way to a sub 78 F2P item bank. So here are my suggestions for that: All Elemental Staves Pure Ess Coif All robes Magic Ammy Sapphire Necklaces Balls of Wool Dry/Soft Clay All moulds except ammy Tiara Chefs Hat Copper and Tin Boots Also check what you have in your other slots. I can already see that grain is in another tab, and that's F2P. The reason why you want to get to a sub 78 F2P bank is for dungeoneering and your lummy ring. You'll have to destroy it every single time. Also consider putting either your rune armour and/or green dragonhide armour into sets, since when you think about it, you don't really need both at the same time. Since you're going dungeoneering, I highly recommend you getting the maple longbow sight and then just straight up tank ranging in full rune.

Gloves of Silence
They have 62 failures. I remember going through at least 2-3 pairs of them because I always forgot to repair them when they got to the critical message. Anyway, just use them a ton more. It may just be the case where you almost never fail since your thieve level is so high and the gloves just help.

F2P crafting
Gold amulets are probably one of the best all round. Somewhat decent xp and guaranteed profit and sales.

A tale of Bork, electrical fuses and frustration
Is it just a general unwritten rule that sisters are always stupendously bad with technology? My own sister and the sisters of two of my friends can seem totally braindead when it comes to anything technical or with electricity flowing through it. Just a small comment on your set up though. Why use karils? Have you ever noticed it blocking a single one of the mage's magical attacks? I have a friend who once used full arma and had 99 mage and def. He said that after 30+ runs of bork he had not seen one instance of a blocked magic attack. I'd think that prossy would be much better since you could pray piet + pro melee the entire fight.

Faster Mining XP?
I've only done a few informal runs of the new resource dungeon, but it's definitely less clicking. Having to mess around with a kyatt teleport on a full world at the CW bank can be a real pain :rolleyes:
-
Faster Mining XP?
I'm willing to say the resource dungeon deposit box is faster. You run about 1/4 the distance total and teleporting is fewer clicks.

Superheating
100 gp per bar ;-) ? Nats are 200ea :P 211 (nat) - 91 (gold bar) = 120 gp 120 gp for: 53 magic xp 56.5 smithing xp (with gaunts ofc) Considering magic can be around 2 gp/xp for even plank make, smithing xp much more expensive than that, and the fact that you're training both at the same time, I'd call that a sweet deal.

Dungeoneering Training
Just a few comments on these: 1) You generally want to leave the later levels for later. Since the later levels have a higher base xp, you gain even more with a higher prestige. You can start messing around with random floors once you've maxed out your prestige (Max is 35) 2) Once you do get a consistent team that knows what it is doing, they're the way to go. You clear dungeons faster and gain more xp for it. 3) You might want to consider rushing strategies where lower complexity is actually what you want. 4) Herblore helps out here And finally directly answering the OP 5) All skills you use in the dungeons give you XP in those skills. Making a potion gives herby, casting a spell gives magic. However, the xp rates are not consistent with those on the surface.

Superheating
Nop Neither am I and i can still get a load (27 iron ore) done in 40 sec (including withdraw and deposite times) Fast ping ftw? One small tip might be to try and move your superheat spell as low as possible on your spellbook (Combat spells first and showing, skill spells last, scroll up and have superheat as near as possible to the bottom). If you set it up right, you can click spam the hell out of the superheat icon and automatically process an iron ore, minimizing mouse movement. You'll be able to get about 20-22 ores with click spam and you'll have to manually do the last few.

What to do while fletching arrows?
Well the point is that you can guarantee 2-3 patches. When I watch my patches, I followed the fally patch and the ecto patch since they were easy to get to. Every time a growth cycle happened, I checked both. This goes well with marigolds and limpwurts.
