Well the price shifting isn't a huge factor. We can all agree that the fury isn't going to be 300K anytime soon and likewise the zerker necklace won't be popping up to 2.6 mil. At most I'd say these two items would fluctuate by 10 MAYBE 15%, but that's a bit of a stretch until some new huge update comes in. But yes, they are all made of pixels on your screen :lol:

Instead of doing that, you could just go do some hunting, get some tasty XP and maybe some profitable chins, all the while you have relatively high chances of getting any non-telly away random.

I think Panzerkampfwagen IV would be an interesting name :roll:

Just for a little boost to your set up, I think you should get those 5 extra slayer levels and get broad bolts. They do about the same amount of damage as adamant bolts, but are cheaper than mithril ones :thumbsup:

Is it worth it more to do Mazchna tasks for 5-9 or to do Vannaka ones? I don't think Van tasks should take 4 times as long, but I guess the real factor here is how quickly I could do them to get to the 10th task so I could go Sumona.

That argument makes even less sense. A zammy prayer book and a sara prayer book are both shield slot prayer based items, but does it make sense to compare them for defence though? The fury and berserker necklace being onyx items is totally irrelevant. You're supposed to be looking at their purpose overall. To again look at your same type of item reasoning, why are we comparing the dragon scimitar with any of the obsidian weapons at all? Aren't they made of different materials? Glory amulets are looked at a step above power amulets and a step or two down from fury amulets. Yes, they are extensively used for teleporting, but obviously one of their main purposes is for stat boosts in fighting. Furys are used for stat boosts in fighting. Both of them provide +10 attack with the major difference being in defence bonuses. However, the original argument that was made was purely looking at the accuracy and attack bonus of each combination.

My impression was that tanking meant you had high defense yourself, not just strong armour.

I particularly like you second idea. Another great usage of the GE! I'll add it into the next version :

What are the exact effects of vengeance on the d claw spec? Does it return only the first swipe or all four? I agree with most others in saying that the d claws are probably better than the AGS. The AGS focuses it all in 2 hits. What if you were to miss or hit low? That's most of your KO potential gone for that fight. As for the D claw spec, you have 4 chances to land decent damage for one spec. That's a grand total of 8 very quick hits and if fail to KO them in those attacks, your next attack will come up much quicker than an AGS slash, potentially finishing them off or at least keeping them on healing.

You could instead wait until you are members and then craft sapphire necklaces. Enchant them into game necklaces and make a tiny profit.

Remember that the time you have at Tears is dependent on the number of quest points you have. Someone who has over 200 QPs is going to have substantially more time than a person with just 100. It takes about 2-3 minutes for me and I'm currently averaging about 50-60 tears at 130ish QPs.

To help you get them over with, it's probably best to do Creature of Fenkenstrain and Garden of Tranquility to get the activated Ring of Charos. Carpet rides are very convenient for getting around to major hubs and the ring will halve the costs.

Quite a while ago, Jagex made it so that you don't get teleported away for randoms when hunting because lots of people found it a real pain when they lost all of their traps. With all the teleport randoms taken away, you have a much higher chance of getting a genie while hunting. I myself have noticed quite a few genies while hunting.

You need a thieving level of 42 to find any traps. Otherwise, you won't find anything. Try using the thieving stat booster (Forgot what it was called).

Anyone have an idea of what font they use in-game for talking to NPCs? I've had a brief look at the fonts I have, but can't seem to find a good enough match.

Not to sound lame or anything, but I'd personally want to see a next part in the Red Axe series or Kennith's Concerns. Those had pretty interesting story lines and were left as a really anxious cliffhanger. Of course, I haven't had membs long enough to do many of the other cool quests (I've got about 130 QPs now though : \ ), but these are some of the one's I enjoyed the most of those I have done (That come to mind at least :roll: )

What exactly are you doing? If it's quest related or something like that where you only need to do something briefly, you could simply buy a mature dwarven stout from the GE for about 6k. Saves a bit of time and hassle of getting the smithing levels.

I believe the jewelery shop owner purchases at high alch, but only for a few.

as f2p? But anyway, I used a combination of alchemy from lumby ring as well as the normal high alch spell. I barely was able to alch 1k an hour, it was around 700? The fastest way as free-to-play though. Yes, as F2P. I simply mentioned that SC tools stimulated the price of mithril bars. This means that a player, P2P or F2P, making mithril bars will be able to better cover their costs by superheating mithril bars since the bars will sell for more. Mithril bars actually have fallen a tiny bit as of late and natures going up a bit, now losing 24gp per bar instead of the profit by 20 gp when I did them as an F2P player (3 months ago, closer to when SC came out). This loss per bar is very comparable to most alching methods. However, the advantages here are: -spell casts quite a bit faster than high alch -you gain 30 smithing xp with every cast Thus the total XP you get is 83 XP, 53 for magic, 30 to smithing. Not bad imo Disadvantages: -must be near a bank (With high alch you could do other stuff like camp spawns or something, I dunno) -need to bank quite often which can be an annoyance

I'm going to have to do a few quests like the Myreque one's before I do any Barrows runs though :roll:

Perhaps I will :)

http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Black_s ... er_(weapon) "Some people may not know this, but it is a better weapon substitute for the Barrows minigame. The ammunition is cheaper than a cast of Slayer dart, and a lot more accurate." So who's right?

Really? I've actually heard quite the contrary. It's supposed to be quite a bit cheaper than dart or wave and it's quite fast. If your estimate is correct, then at 1/4 of his magic, that's a pretty decent max hit of 19. Not too bad for about 200 GP per casting.

A huge revamp of the entire guide is now planned! The Ultimate F2P Banking guide will get a new name in the coming weeks. This new guide will provide more in-depth explanations, a fully detailed member section citing space saving and convenient techniques. Tons of new pictures and banners! If you have any suggestions for the new member section of the guide, please post or PM me and you will get the credit if I see fit. -Sinkhan

Not to mention that superheating mithril bars, still stimulated by SC tools, will cover your costs of 4 coals, a mithril ore, and a nature rune (You'll be using a fire staff of course), and may even get you a tiny profit.
