I don't see why not. Assuming yellow is the theiving stew.

I've seen level 3s with 99 dunge, so it's certainly possible >.< Although I suspect they have like maxed mains and very good friends....

Exactly. This alone creates a dispute of why all men aren't created equal. TY for proving my point. Anytime. ;) I disagree. To a certain extent, yes, it's talent...to a certain extent, chances are she started learning the piano at the age of two, and was fairly pressured by her parents to work hard towards it. Sometimes the education system forgets is the younger we are, the better we learn stuff. Some/many young prodigies are just people that started working hard towards something at a very young age due to their parents. No, not all people are equal...but a lot of it comes down to the nurture vs nature argument. The whole "blacks are inferior" thing, for instance, seemed to revolve around societal and sociological trends, not actual genetics. Personally, I think the rich Texan dropping out of high school to form his own company is a better example of some people being created better then others. But to be honest, at the end of the day, not all people ARE created equal. But you also need to consider the nature vs nurture idea, and just simple luck. Example: Let's say, 30 years ago someone won a few million from a lottery, and invested it in microsoft. That guy would now be pretty damned well off.

Seeing as you have a questcape, you ought to have decent stats to try barrows - or you could always try tormented demons! Other then that, farming, dailies....you could always give RC a shot for money as well.

Whaaaaaaaaat? Scratch the saradomin sword if your training on dragons, unless you can make super antifires. Honestly, for str training at dragons, your best bet is probably dragon scimitar (or leaf bladed sword, if your fighting higher level dragons.) You DON'T want to get burnt by dragon fire. I'd say get the DFS and a dragon scimitar/leaf bladed sword if your training at dragons; again, that's if you can't use super antifires. If you CAN use super antifires, and you want to train str, SS (saradomin sword - not godsword) all the way.

I wouldn't read anything into it. I've done all the quests and can't recall anything related to strange rocky footprints in Taverly.

Huh. If the tokens aren't increased, there's no point in increased exp in my opinion. The main value exp in Dunge has is that 10exp = 1 token. All but 1 reward there I think, requires a higher dunge level then token level.

Daggers really aren't that great. Neither is poison. If you REALLY want poison, take a spear. Your 2nd bind should either be a platebody, or a shadow silk hood/blood necklace, if you can actually get your hands on one.

Honestly, your best is to just start playing it....do the first few floors, try to get the hand of these as the complexity goes up. Other then that, try binding the best platebody and weapon (2h is considered by many to be the best.) Try the cc "Dungsmith" I think it is, or some variation on that.

Er, pretty sure the price the general store will pay for them is low alch. Then you multiply it by whatever the ration is of high alch to low alch (there is such a ratio) Well, the shop thing USED to work anyhow.

For magic, your best bet is getting a LOT more money, then just Ice Barraging stuff. (I recommend Rock Lobsters, but for pure magic exp, mummies or the skele-monkeys at ape atoll are a good choice as well.) As for money makers with 99 range, I'd say get your def/prayer up and then go armadyl. But I'm no expert.

Nope, I had full infinity, an Arcane Stream, a Tome of Frost and a Staff of Light on... so it was the fact that I was using Water Surges. Yeah, that's exactly what I'm trying to get at, and the fact that all spellbooks have their uses and none of them are "Second-Rate". To be perfectly honest....in terms of pure combat maging, standard is second rate to ancients....especially in a large multicombat arena such as C Wars. Sure, watersurge is a nice spell, fairly accurate, possibly more then ancients, and you have entangle... but barrages beat it out. Especially with the 9x targeting...freezing a large group of melee'ers, or just healing off them.... Damn though, I want an arcane stream >.< exp weekend threw me off track. Not so sure on the tome of frost....I can get water runes in more ways then one, but not 48k tokens. Maybe after a chaotic weapon...

Tip: set smaller goals. Look at quests, that give rewards, do those. Take it in baby steps. A huge goal like WGS is most likely to just depress you.

Wondering the best monster to kill for avantoe with the avantoe gloves. And yes, I intend to use kingdom and farming as well.

Well maybe your strategy is good for now while you get the hang of switching weapons and prayers (which is fairly difficult at first) but once you get better, you should want a lot more prayer pots then food. But for just starting out, do whatever works. Also, if your just starting out, don't use Karils. Too risky for a beginner imo. (Not trying to sound like an eliststi here >.>)

Again, a person saying using the best spell you can. If you can somehow use that ancient castle place in the wilde for fast banking that's nice, if your using Brim don't bank bones.

Where the HELL are your prayer potions!?!? You can't last there on food alone. I don't know how much food you'll actually need (been ages since I used a titan) but without prayer pots, you'd be lucky to get 2 kills. Personally I think your best bet is a small amount of brews combined with a large amount of prayer potions, and use your titan for the majority of healing. With a titan, I'd say a 2:1 ratio of prayer pots to food. You could always try taking a turtle down there, then summon a fire titan once the tortoise is empty. Don't know what a good ratio of prayer pots to food is with fire titan, but you dooming yourself without prayer pots. Also, take Nomads cape if you have it. That thing's awesome. EDIT: A few people beat me to prayer potions. I still think you want more prayer potions and less food. Also, why only one ranging potion but 2 super attacks and super strengths? Your better off getting rid of food then prayer potions. As for Karils, take it if you feel like it - it's better defence, more risky to use, it degrades...and at TD's, you shouldn't need that much defence because if all goes well, prayer will block most attacks.

First article was interesting...however, I'd like to point out that with my various house portals, fairy rings, etc, the teleportation aspect of the spellbooks is moot to me. Standard teleport has...trollheim, all the other ones are in my house, and at my magic level I can easily use spellswap. Speaking of which, I'd love to put some damn lunar teleports in a portal. Catherby is one nice teleport, and lunar isle/daggannoth teleport are nice dreams. Still, it's fairly true that the standard spellbook, while not being as combat orientated as the ancient spellbook, can still be a force to be reckoned with. Entangle, teleblock, fire surge, Claws of guthix (not mentioning the others 'cause THEIR godstaff doesn't have a 10% bonus...) Last I checked, Fire Surge was more accurate then Ice Barrage... I might just test that someday o.O I liked the second article. Actually, I recently went to a bunch of resource dungeons recently, and was amazed to find that the chaos druid one (which requires what, level 10 dunge?) had one person in it. I thought they were supposed to be popular. Maybe there REALLY aren't that many people at duneg o.O My best guess is that most of the people to whom that'd be useful are too newby to know about it. ("Newby" not "Nooby" for those who understand the distinction.) I find it interesting how most people agree that the 2nd article was better, then go on to talk about the first article, if only to state their disagreement. To me, the most successful article is the one that generates the most commentary.

Why not use your butler o.O

A quick note, there's a fairly low level dungeoneering...dungeon...that is filled with chaos druids, and I don't think it's very crowded. At least normally, with the double exp weekend coming up who knows.... To the above poster: what does he need the brassy for? Maybe once he goes barrows it'd be useful, but that's it. Not needed at dragons last I checked; and I don't think he'd want to spend money on prayer for slayer or something.

At TD's, I'd have to say that getting a unicorn would be the biggest thing there. With good luring, it basically eliminates the need for food there. When I go, the only food I take is A brew, just in case. And a super restore to go with it/restore summon when I summon my 2nd uni. After that, my guess would be that herblore would be more useful, but I don't really know.

I wouldn't do it. I consider it a cheap way to train, and illegal (ok, so it's fine if your AT your computer. How many people who would splash train would actually be at their computer? The main point of it to have your character spend hours training while your not doing anything.) One of the ways I trained around your magic level (I think) was charging air orbs. Not the fastest exp in the book by far, but it's fairly profitable. At lower levels, it wasn't too much of a grind.

Or have them order their familiars to attack a mini. (Although, one time at Zammy GW, I had a friend doing that with a steel titan, and I think a few of the kills he finished the mini before we killed the boss o.O)

Yeah, I also recommend letting your kitty grow into a cat. Or maybe an overgrown cat, then turn it into a wily hellcat, if your willing to wait....

I'm calling BS on that. I think I've done enough Dungeoneering and FoG to realize I could get a Battle Robe Set MUCH faster then a Chaotic weapon. Everything you listed comes from an activity, not a skill. Chaotic weapons are the best weapons in the game for almost every situation. The items you listed are not. Aside from the two highest tier CW armors (which are useful only in CW, mind you, and should not be used anywhere else, unlike chaotic), none of those items (or item sets) take longer than nine hours to get. It takes significantly longer to obtain a chaotic weapon. Even HALVING the price to RE-BUY (that is, you have to spend the initial 20-30 hours to get the weapon) put the weapons ahead of any of those items in time required to re-obtain. It's entirely fair. So the reward seller should be pitiful about you? The poor guy already has enough trouble smuggling those items out of Deamonheim. If you lose an item worth 50m (I assume people value their chaotic equipment at 50m), you die and lose it, do you think you deserve to get it off the GE for 25m? Nope, you'll just have to earn that 50m back, and that doesn't take longer than nine hours. Chaotic weapons are actually valued at much higher than 50M. Assuming you can make 5M/h, and getting a chaotic weapon takes 30 hours (normal for the average dungeoneer, if a bit low), it's worth at least 150M. And lest I remind you that THIS IS A SKILL? People don't go out their way to get chaotic weapons like they do with activities. It's THE most important part of leveling dungeoneering. Who the hell makes 5m an hour!? Not many people. Sheesh.
