Ahh, I see. The words "gaming laptop" typically implies that you would like your laptop to be able to run modern games to some degree, hence my confusion. As for travelling, I find that my 15.6'' laptop is just a tad too bulky to lug around everywhere comfortably, but iit's not a huge pain in the ass. I certainly wouldn't recommend carrying around a 17'' one or even something larger, though. RuneScape's performance is mostly processor-bound, and just about every graphics card should be able to handle the graphics side of things. Personally, I'd look for something that has an Intel i3 processor or better, and some form of dedicated graphics card that isn't at the complete lower end of the spectrum, and that's it. That should easily fit within your 700 pound budget. The laptops Kim and Z_Berenice suggested both qualify just fine, and quite frankly, every electronics store in your area should have something that suits your needs. Why not visit a store and try out a few laptops? See if you like the touchpad, the feel of the keyboard, the quality of the monitor, the feel of the laptop's casing, etcetera. Such things can be hard to figure out online, without doing lots of reading. Just don't listen if the salesperson tries to trick you into buying some super-powerful model :P To add in something myself, I'd suggest this one, mostly because I have good experience with Lenovo myself (my old Thinkpad is Nokia 3310 kind of sturdy), and because it includes a solid graphics card and a modest SSD which is quite rare at this price point. That said, you can get by with a laptop that's quite a bit cheaper than this one.

Dell rubbish? I know their reputation is so-so in the desktop computer area, but from what I've gathered, their XPS line of laptops is actually quite decent. Peter uses one and he's quite pleased with it as far as I could tell. Keep in mind that Alienware belongs to Dell, too. I wouldn't recommend buying an Alienware laptop though - they're a tad overpriced for the hardware you're getting. Unless you are specifically eyeing the 11 inch one, and having such a small laptop with that kind of power is as unique as the Dell website claims it is :P Are you really sure you actually want a gaming laptop, though? I mean, for 700 pounds you could easily build a desktop rig that has something decent like a GTX 560 Ti powering its graphics. Currently, even powerful mobile graphics cards like the GTX 580M aren't quite as powerful as a modest desktop performance graphics card, let alone those that you can buy for 700 pounds. Also, will you be lugging your laptop around often? If so, going for a 17 inch or even a 15.6 inch model may end up being a pain in the behind, which is unfortunate, as it is those laptops that having the gaming power you'd likely want. The 540m that comes with the m11x will let you run games, sure, but don't expect super high detail settings and the likes. If you can wait a little bit, I'd recommend to look for a good deal that comes with the new GT 650m. It's a mainstream graphics card, so it'll be available in laptops that don't carry the $300 "gaming laptop" premium, yet it still outperforms last generation's GTX 560m (which is an actual gaming card, so to speak). If you want one now, shooting for a GT 555m is likely the best you can do given your budget. It's hard to recommend anything concrete without really knowing what you're expecting your laptop to be capable of, though.

Hey IntrepidX, welcome to the forums! I really like your suggestion. As Kimberly mentioned, the easiest solution would be to have the calculators tell you how many morphic tools you will go through if you indicate that you are using one. However, this would require adjustments to the calculator back-end, which is currently undergoing serious maintenance, so it will be a while before such a feature will appear. Another problem is that we don't appear to know for exactly how much XP a morphic tool will last. Our items database pages and the Stealing Creation guide use vague terms such as "It lasts for a certain amount of xp gained", which makes it difficult to actually do any calculations. As a result, we'd have to do some research first before we can calculate anything whatsoever.

It would appear that I will be sharing my litterbox with eight to sixety-nine cats :(

Added, thanks :)

I actually added it to the prayer drain calculator some time ago. Suppose it should be added to the regular potion calculator as well, though. Thanks for bringing this up and apologies for the delay in replying :( Edit: the potion calculator has now been updated as well.

That's settled then :) @Sy, we actually discussed this in chat some time ago. Some skills have certain methods that award XP values that have more than one decimal place, such as Constitution which I think gives 0.1333 repeating XP per damage inflicted. However, before this is added to your Constitution XP tally, the calculated value simply gets truncated to something with only one decimal place. We actually did list a few bows as giving .25 XP for cutting the bow and adding the string up until recently, but as it turns out, cutting and stringing gave .3 and .2 XP respectively, which means that the exact XP division isn't exactly 50/50 for those bows. Pretty strong evidence towards XP values only having a single decimal place I'd say.

Hey Jakewatkins, thank you for your submission :) For stuff like cutting ivy, there is only one decimal place in the XP value. If we claim that the decimal value is .5, then you should never get a sequence of "333 333 332" because it should alternate every time. I think you may be on to something here. Since there's only one decimal place, simply cutting 10 Ivy and dividing the total amount of experience you get for that by 10 should result in the exact XP value that you receive for cutting a single ivy.

All good now.

Thing is, in the grand scheme of things, nobody's going to go and plant 5072 trees for their next level without checking their health ever. While having a complete list of all XP values for all things farming would be nice, it is not the main goal of the farming calculator and planner, and adding clutter does decrease usability. You're definitely right about having an option for just the health check. I'll add those momentarily :)

I've updated the crafting calculator and planner to include options for both supermake glass and manually melting glass for the items in the battlestaves and glassblowing sections. That should cover everything, and it doesn't appear to look too confusing :)

Good sir! The "pick 6" merely means that you're picking six pieces of fruit from your tree, which is the amount of fruit your freshly grown tree will carry. It doesn't mean that you'll be planting, checking up on and then raiding six different trees. I see your point on not being able to use only the planting XP, but since that amount is so tiny next to the amount of XP you get for checking up on the tree, I figured there'd be little harm in leaving it out. I do like the idea involving check-boxes. Farming is quite different from your average skill, so it probably wouldn't hurt to make some adjustments to the calculator such that it better fits the skill. There are currently other calculator projects going on (including a new feature that'll make calcuting with BXPW values a possibility) so it'll probably be some time before you see any changes, though.

For the time being, I simply removed the 20 XP for (manually) creating the molten glass. This seemed most intuitive. I'm still unsure on how to best add options for melting the glass yourself - adding two more options for both manually creating molten glass and using supermake glass creates quite the mess, especially in the "glassblowing" category. I'm sure you'll see some changes in the future though. Thanks again :thumbsup:

Thank you for your detailed feedback. I'll look into this :)

Yeah, that list is pretty flawed. It seems to be polluted by drops that were possible just after the update, but have since been corrected, such as 10,000+ pure essence and 100 torstol. In addition, it just dumps everything into one giant table, while there's multiple in the actual game. For example, a Hobgoblin could in theory drop a dragon square half, but never a dragon helmet.

Individual rare table drops will be listed until we fully figure out what's on each table. It's a bit silly, but it does assist in data collection.

Hey there, welcome to the forums and thank you for your submission :) Many monsters do have a chance of randomly dropping rather valuable stuff, though it is quite rare, especially for something as harmless as a flesh crawler (see here for a rough overview, we're still fleshing this out). Since you didn't make a screenshot, I've added your drop as unconfirmed for the time being. Thanks again :)

Added, thanks :)

Thank you for your submission :) I have removed the regular ashes from the greater demon's drop list. As you mentioned, those are probably a left-over from yesteryear. In addition, I have also removed the rune chainbody from the list - another user had previously mentioned not getting one over the course of many many kills as well. I believe that the rune kiteshield actually is on the rare drop table. It just has a nonsensically low drop rate, so it is rarely ever seen. That said, the rune scimitar and rune mace are not, and I don't recall greater demons dropping those at all. I'll mark them as unconfirmed, for the time being, and see if we can gather some more feedback on those. I'll also make a note on the coin drop. Thanks again :)
