One thing about solo'ing him, put the GGS by one lodestone, gatestone by the other. Yeah, stay away from him so he clears the rocks.

Speaking of which, can Jagex even calculate our max hit? Just wondering, since according to monster info or examine or whatever.... Jad's max is 930. But we know that's not true...

I'm not entirely sure. The max hit one worries me though, considering how hard it is to max. At least, max using potions excluding the overload. My guess for the KS is either you simply haven't hit your max yet and that the max ONLY works for the max (i.e. your max is 655, you hit 654 and it doesn't show) or the max thing doesn't work for special attacks.

Um, first off. Consider just ranging in F2P. So much easier, half the damn people are newbies just trying to get free mage exp. Dunno if the new air spell changed that though.. Last I checked battle robes were 10m on the street. Although getting from the GE isn't impossible. And, tbh, I could be completely off on the street price. Boots: infinity boots for maging. You should only need, er....2M? Whatever the current GE price is >.> Ring is seers ring. Cape is a Godcape, you'll need 37 prayer, few prayer potions, runes.... shouldn't be too hard to beat the mage arena. Gloves, the best gloves are barrow gloves. But those require a lot of questing. Beat as much of Recipe for Disaster as you can, or just get infinity gloves. Tbh, I don't think you should let 70RC stand in the way of a surgebox. If you want the surgebox, get 70RC and don't let it stand in the way. On the other hand, I think surgeboxes are rather useless to begin with.... (Except in DG. They're sexy there. Yeah.)

Yes. He's not using melee, obviously, since it's a projectile. It splashes on you. Also, try tanking him with melee armour on. Take an inventory of monkfish. Now try it with ranged gear. Same inventory of monkfish. Now that you've figured that out, try tanking him with range gear (since you've discovered it's a magical attack) and tank with pro mage on. Tank without. Tested those when Nomad came out. He uses mage, and pro mage DOES have an effect. (I think. Not like I can double check it now...) Jagex just likes to give newer boss monsters some prayer ignore capability. On topic: I'm a little disappointed in the absorb rates. I also think it's misleading and dumb to put it on lower level armour; I mean, how many people in, say, black armour are ever going to get hit 200+? >.< Seriously though, I think they should either raise the absorption rates, or remove the 200LP thing and *maybe* lower them.

That solves nothing. That just makes things annoying; anyhow, I see no evidence of this whatsoever. Plus that just favours melee more anyways, because what type of armour they wear has no significant effect on their combat abilities. Least not helm/plate/legs.

I don't necessarily agree with your examples, but I agree with the bolded statement. Also, just throwing this out here, I think a Vulcan would find it illogical to waste time on a computer game. Or this topic XD

I'm 100% positive your items are supposed to last 2 minutes after you destroy your grave. Positive I read Jagex saying somewhere that you can destroy your graves to make items easier to pick up. However, things don't always work how they're supposed to >.> or it could be confusion due to lack of communication about graves (between Jagex staff.)

FOG? That's not a daily o.O You mean ToG? I do MTK every week. I should do pengs and herbs but.... I don't. I do pengs if I've got a particularly hard skilling goal, like when I got 80 RC. If I was smart I'd do a herb run once a day at the very least for money and penguins weekly. Used to do Bork and B staffs daily. Should do Bork/Phoenix daily as well >.<

So, one of the creatures I dislike the most in Damonheim is bats. They have high def and have no discernible weakness. Although magic can't hit them. Does anyone know what they ARE weak to?

I had to look these up in the tipit bestiary. My first thought were those level 20ish ones in the Lumby caves. Not the 138 ones in the Smoky Well....

With max mage damage boosting stuff, you could hit 900 or 1k on them. MAGIC!

Should I be? I would. Especially if your dying lots...

Already have a questcape, and rc is a no-go. The very definition of a useless skill, only merited due to being a pain in the ass to train. You know, I actually got my RC up for useful stuff in Dungeoneering... :unsure:

K, seriously, this guy needs to stop being so emo. There is no happiness? You can never overcome your struggles? Really? If by any chance this guy ISN'T suicidal, tell him to gtfo and kill himself. I have no use for this.

Or you could just train magic up to the required level instead of boosting. :shades: OT: Yeah, balancing it out would hopefully make runes cheaper, cuz they are quite expensive right now.. My magic level is 99. I'm talking about when you brew or get your magic lowered by things like seercull spec. You won't be able to cast a spell if you don't have the level, but things like godswords or bows aren't unequipped. This is what makes the wolpe epic >.>

EE is Ehanced Excalibur; upgraded version of Excalibur from beating all of the Hard Seers Diary Tasks. Heals 200LP, using full special bar and gives the def of like a super def pot or something.

Congratz! Although I think you should move up from rune, no offense. Be prepared for being told to get bandos, extremes, turmoil/soulsplit and a rapier for slayer, in no particular order. Also, Koraskis Sword > Dragon Scimitar last I checked.

Sadly, at one point you had a good or evil option.... Hazeel cult and Temple of Ikov. I think it'd be so much cooler if that affected something; just storyline. However, before WGS came out I always imagined that your acts would be rendered neutral at some point; someone else would steal the Staff, Hazeel gets killed off again; maybe the character needs to kill him, but he uses melee only. Whip out the pro melee prayer and he's toast. Honestly, what God your character follows depends on which piece of content your playing. Zaros/Guthix are the big ones; Temple Knights are Saradomin obviously. A bit of RC involves being a Zamorak supporter. Honestly, it would be nice if there was some more Zamorak focused content; while I'm a firm believer that no choices your character makes should be irreversible (so far, only one choice is; the gang member in shield of arrav, which affects heroes) I think it'd be nice to have more of a choice. Perhaps some sort of repeatable quest for each God; you need to do that quest to truly switch allegiance to him....would be interesting.... Have to say though, I don't think there are many MMOs where you can truly choose a God or being good/evil, except maybe with class/race association.

That's just amazingly bad exp :o When banking at ZMI you do tele to Ourania right? Honestly, RC is amazing bad exp. It starts off as one of the faster skills to train at a low level, but the experience never significantly increases. I'd bet that training at ZMI like a pro would be say....8 times faster then training at level 1 on air runes. Yeah. Banking at Ourania is better, but some people can't stand that and like Lunar Isle better.

LOL, i did that too! Good times indeed. Oh God me too :o Yeap me too :P. And air strike runes :D. Same O_O I'm having a hard time remembering that.. Oh well, maybe it's because people ALWAYS played for 99s :) Your funny. Some people always have, but for the vast majority of RS, the 99 cape goals (especially firemaking/fletching/cooking) came AFTER skillcapes came out. I'm having a hard time remembering that.. Oh well, maybe it's because people ALWAYS played for 99s :) No they didn't...only when skill capes came out did people start caring about level 99. Really? Because people had 99 woodcutting, fishing, firemaking, magic, smithing, mining and lots of other skills, before skill capes were introduced. Rendering your arguement invalid :) Here's something else I remember. When there were 3 people with maxed total on the highscores list. Why, I wonder? Well, simply because most people saw no point in 99s. Now there's several hundred I think, and counting. Well, less so now because of DG.... even so. Yeah, I think amount of people with maxed total now vs pre-skillcape times prooves how drastically skillcapes changed it. N0valyfe (probably spelled wrong) Zezima and TheOldknite or something....those were the 3. Can't remember their names exactly, been years....but you get the picture. Pretty much everyone knew their names. Now? Yeah.

You ARE using pro melee right? I'd say elite void + nomads cape would pwn there.

I'm a Ket, now getting two prayer levels to turn into a Mej....and Raltor is my fremnik name.

Nice! I disagree with Golvellius, once people see whatever the absorption updates does to these shields, your window of opportunity to get it at min (or at all) is pretty much over.

Get those last 2 dg levesl for frost dragons? Those are supposed to be quite good money.
