Does pious pete exist?
I was thinking the same when reading the updated random guide.. In 3 years gameplay I saw the randoms rate being increased a lot. During my first year it was really difficult to get full sets of randomclothes. Now I could fill a costumeroom every month with it.. However, I've never seen Pious Pete during all my gameplay....

The Fight Caves
Your first explanation could be right weren't it that the second time I turned my prayer on I received 2 hits in a row with my icon above my head both times...Looks like extreme lagg then. Your second explanation I know of. I have experienced it 3 times now (at black demons and dragons). Only the icon was lit up and no protection indeed.. Thank for possible reasons but I still dont understand the 2 hits in a row with mageprayer (fully lit) on.

The Fight Caves
Not sure if this is the correct thread, (and haven't read all 36 pages..) but here I go; I got my first firecape about 9- 10 months ago after a few attempts and some major luck with my prayer on Jad's attacks. 2-3 months later I lost it when lagging at Gargoyles. Until today I never went back to the cave because of my (bad) luck in choosing prayer when fighting Jad. (skillcapes are an excellent alternative :D ) I understood certain things had changed in the cave, but my maxed out def and rangelvl gave me great confidence I would see Jad in my first attempt.. However, I seemed to be a little optimistic.. :wall: The first 30 waves were peanuts but fighting my 2 or 3rd 360 I got a serious hit just after i turned on mageprayer. Still being surprised about this 'lag' I healed back with guthans till 72 hp for the next 360. Then switched on mageprayer for this mage devil. Mageprayersymbol above my head... BAM hit 30 and a second hit!!! 42!! dead... How is this possible? This can't be a little lag?? Hit twice with mage attack when mageprayer was clearly switched on? What has changed since last year? Is this some kind of glitch?

Reinvest in micsselania: maples lose money!
Seeing all the wizkids showing their math here.. :wink: we may conclude that above statements are false? Farming will hardly or not be effected by this change. And btw: since the first day kingdom managing became attractive (when 2nd kingdomquest came out) I have put 100% on maples. Non stop till today.. And I never sold my maples for less than 80 ea...

The degrading community
Matok's/Shavital's parable about the lifecycle of pubs/clubs explains a lot about the current TIP forum. I read this forum almost 2 years before I became a member and can confirm the ever increasing stupidity and immaturity of many new posters during the last few years (like in rs itself....) If I would have known an alternative with a mature (and only mature!) community, I would have been gone already.. Maybe silly, because the Tip-website is great and the crew is doing a wonderful job. But to me the new average tip-iter looks more and more like a 13 year old schoolboy filling his RSdays with PCing and in the meantime flooding this forum with posts like mentioned previously.. The single times these kids have an opinion or advice it's often based on rumours and not on facts and therefore mostly useless.... I can't blame them really, after all, they are still kids. However, in rl communities I can find places without kids if I need to. Here it is not possible anymore. Following the parable I could suggest a membership by invitation or a minimum age limit (like pubs/clubs often do in order to maintain there 'high' standards and thus not following Shavital's lifecycle), though I'm pretty sure this will never happen here. So, anyone knows where old school&older&mature players go?

Hunting Guide. Impetuous Impulses.
This game definitely got nerved. Today i spent 4-5 hours there (first time since a week after introduction) The 4 sec nature imp spawn southeast is gone.. Also it seemed harder to catch those nature imps. Dragon and ninja imps seem to spawn even less (havent seen a dragon , only 2 ninja's though I was most of the time alone or with low lvl players in 1500+ worlds) , magpie spawning seems increased. For me personally the nature imps in the first week made the time intervals between dragons/ninja spawns interesting. This is gone now. Whole game seems to be focused now on waiting endlessly to have a chance on a milliondrop(dragon arrows, etc). Not my kind of game and seeing the empty maze in busy worlds neither for many players.....

Question about Skillcape trimming
You didn't answer my question. If I have ONE 99 skill AND a questcape, will either the skillcape or the questcape be trimmed or not? you didnt ask... read your own first post.. on topic..: no, quest cape is not same as skillcape so both capes are untrimmed

Ancient Pages *Updated List*
1 more for our new mystery: "I have researched these accursed creatures of mithril more, the results are disturbing. Analysis leads me to believe that they were created by a higher power, what sort of creature could be so powerful?

Does your farming level affect it?
All nonsense. No noticable difference in disease rate when becoming a higher lvl...My herbs still die as often as yours...

Tree Growing times
This huge variation in growingtimes started august/september last year. A little later the killing rate of herbs had been increased too. (2 weeks after that the 'my arm patch' was introduced) Being not so happy with this I've send somewhere october/ november a querie to Jagex asking what they had done. They replied it had been changed indeed for bringing more balance into the game. (always a nice excuse.. :? ) Personally, I have experienced growingtimes of fruittrees up to 36 hours... We've had some discussions on guide subforums about adjusting the times in the guides. Mod Pokemama decided this will only be done if players gather enough 'formal' data concerning growingtimes of different trees/patches.. So feel free to start... :wink: ('Despite my farminglvl, I never had the urge to write down all my farming-data....)

Dark Bow not as common as you think?
Good post, and seeing as most people have now quit slaying the price will have to go up when all the manipulation stops. I will try to get a few of them aswell and not sell unless i get a respectable price. Good post(s) indeed. I was quite annoyed by all this price manipulation and other nonsense on the forums and intended to write something like this myself. However, all is said here. I wil stock bows too and only sell for respectable price..Hope more ~90+slayers have some patience....

4 June 2007 - Grim Tales
For players who want help in bossfight: [hide=Boss fight help] Take enough food with you. I only had 4 monks, I like to depend on my prayer if it gets difficult :) . Only this time my prayer was drained by the monster in 4 attempts (from 81 to 0). Made it with 35/98 hp left [/hide] edit: Last poster doesnt seem to need spoilers..Anyway; advice will be same..

Dissapointed in a Monster?
One more vote for dark beasts. Huge disappointment for being the highest slayermonster. Keeping full mourner outfit +wasting prayerpots for those lousy drops? I quitted dark beasts after 2 tasks.. I can't imagine what jagex motivation for this useless slayercreature was ....

The argument between the classes.
Every week there is new related topic about this issue. Normally I dont even read them anymore, but since I did read this topic and found (probably as usual) a lot of nonsense in it, I felt to reply. Rangers only have advantage in certain npc-combat. A high rangelvl could be a great help. For pvp combat, range is by far the weakest skill!! (and I dont need replies from players with range 55, stating something else :evil: ) Melee will always be superior to range with dds and whip (slashing through ranger's meleeprayer if used) And a high lvl ranger with relatively low magelvl will loose from a high lvl mage. Max hit of rangers (try 99, prayer&potted) is a joke compared to melee and mage maxes... People stating different should first start pking or dueling with (high) range against high meleers/mages. So; for pvp there is no fair combattriangle!!!

24/29 May 2007 - Lores and Histories - Varrock's New Look
I miss the last 6 quests.. still have 133 kudo's and 4(!) 1k lamps, but no 10k lamp. You only get the 10k lamp if you have done al quests if I understood correctly? edit: it seemed to be 1 10k lamp &3 1k lamps.. (looks identical). So above statement is not correct; you dont need to have done all quests
