What does a Zamorakian Spear 'actually' do?
Best stab tool: Best weapon at Corp, Aquanites, and high-level metal dragons. Good crush tool: Good weapon at Waterfiends and Gargolyes.

[Updated 9 Dec] Reviving Smithing : Divinite
Magic doesn't hit very high, so 15% isn't much at all. It should be higher, considering that Blood spells heal 25%. Looking good, though!

If you character has a projectile, use it. If you hit Zelda when she uses Din's Fire, she loses control of it and it just floats off-screen, harmless. Din's Fire travels pretty slow, so most projectiles can outrun it (Wolf/Falco's lasers, Pit's arrows, Sheik's needles, etc.).

Best Training Area To Train On Bloodvelds? [RANGE - P2P]
With or without a cannon, best bloodvelds location are the Mutated Velds. There is a safespot on the north side and south side of the room between crates. These are much better than regular velds (some of which are to the room to the west of the mutated velds room. Those are worse xp and there are only 3, although safespots exist there too) and give better xp. In addition you could cannon like most people do on slayer tasks, although you would need to pray melee when you reload the cannon since the mutated velds hit pretty hard and accurately/

Something to do in a hotzone to gain ep (f2p)
Yes and is in a hotspot. However is it not a multicombat zone which can be risky.. There's no risk if you know what you are doing. 1. If anyone tries to attack you, do not attack back and run to the ice warriors. The warriors will pj him and he will have to deal with the ice warrior before he deals with you. If they are unaggressive toward you, then you can now log out safely, or run with a head start. 2. It's f2p....if you have anything other than trash defense and wield rune armor, you'll only get hit for 0s...honestly pking in f2p is fail unless you're fighting pures or no arm battles. Rune armor is extremely tough to get past with just a rune scimitar. There's really nothing to worry about.

The weapon is weak compared to the broadsword, with 45 less str and ~50 less slash. Another problem I have is the weapon special. It's useless in PvP, as your opponent steps away, then heals/pots/changes armor. In which case it becomes a liability, not an asset. On the other hand, the special is way too powerful in PvM. Its special allows it to inflict tremendous damage on monsters too dumb to walk away from you - almost every monster in the game. The special would 1-hit monsters like Jad, GWD bosses, etc. 1. Broadsword is slower. 2. Its special is by no means a liability. If they are stepping away from you, that means they cannot be attacking you. That means you have the opportunity to eat/pot up/run without fear of them KOing you for the duration of the special. And since you control when the special attack activates, you control when the fight "ends". This is also not overpowered because your opponent can take this chance to heal up himself, or teleblock/bind you since you cannot attack back. Still, it allows you to control the flow of the fight, which is extremely powerful. 3. You misunderstand the special. You take no damage and the damage you take is recoiled based on your defense level. So Jad's max is 99 right? If you blocked that with the special, you'd recoil a percentage of that (1% if 1 defense, 99% if 99 defense, etc.). So the max you could recoil would be 98hp, which is far from Jad's max hp. And since no monster has a max hit higher than its hp, this special, by itself, cannot 1HKO any monster. You are aware that a handcannon is more commonly known as a "gun", right? : Ye. Point being? Finally, I love the idea of a curse system, but your explanation of why it is cursed is a bit odd. It is called "Divinite", why would it be cursed? Another thing is your "Blessed Divine Weapons". Having it cursed seems a bit contradictory. This isn't a big deal, but it bothers me. =P~ "Divine" doesn't mean "supported by the gods". It only means "having godly power". "Blessed" doesn't mean "shall always be protected by the gods". It only means "favored or powerful due to gods' interaction". By wielding a divine weapon, you are essentially challenging the gods' power, causing them to bestow the curse.

Weapon Choice for Outfit.
Black scimitar would work pretty well.

24-40 Farming
That means you'll be getting 30k xp over the course of 3 days. Very possible. Each tree run will yield about 3k xp and each fruit tree run will yield about 7k xp. You can also double up or even triple up on tree runs. So on trees alone you should be getting 16k xp per day (excluding the first day, when you will need to plant all the trees). Each herb run will also yield about 1.5k xp (assuming ranarrs + marigolds), and you can do 5-6 of those per day. You could farm allotments as well, although I don't know the exact numbers for that. If I told you the average yield was 16 (assuming supercompost + magic secuteurs) you should be able to figure it out. I've been told Vinesweeper is 20-30k farming xp per hour. I was no personal confirmation, but that's what I have been told. It may be true, and if it is, you should consider it. Judging from your posts, you need 40 farming to do a quest which unlocks a location you must go to for your clue? If that is the case, remember you can use items/familiars such as the garden pie to boost your farming level to meet the requirements. You only need to do this for the segment of the quest which requires that skill. Garden pie gives +3, so you would really only need 37 farming. However, some quests do not allow this and require you to meet all of the requirements before starting the quest (Lunar Diplomacy, for example). Since that is the case, and you must allow yourself time to do the quest and possibly meet the other requirements, and since you only have 2-3 days, I would definitely recommend at least trying Vinesweeper for the experience. I've never been good at it myself, so pick up a guide. If I have been told right, the level should take no more than 2 hours at Vinesweeper.

Kent's guide to Slayer mastery! NEW SECTION!!!
But remember he is also saying to use void. So it would be Void + Salve (e) vs. Slayer Helm + Fury + Barrows/Bandos + Barrows Gloves. Still doesn't seem worth it imo, esp. since you're giving up a lot of defense.

18th August 2009 - Menagerie, Familiar Controls and Butler
They (Jagex) should take this opportunity and give Wintumber Trees to all the current members who happened to be f2p when they did the Christmas event (ex. me and many others). I was there for the event and I did that event legitimately in f2p. I didn't get the Tree back then, but that's understandable. However, now I'm p2p and since I did the event, shouldn't I be able to get the proper rewards? I didn't do any less work than those members who did the event. I think I should be entitled to that Tree :x /Rant. I REALLY love the attack option. I slaying Nechs in the CTs yesterday and my Fire Titan actually made a difference.

Mother Gaia: An In-Depth Manual to Farming
Will edit in outline and dweed in FAQ. If you use a Lep to store your supercompost, you would be slowing down your runs. Plus, it makes the runs a lot more confusing than they need to be, and you still can't fit in all of the chores in 1 tree/fruit tree run. That is why I do them separate (it's also why the tree/herb/bush runs are separate): it's less confusing and it's faster. I will, however, make a note of it, thanks!

The Best F2P Combat Guide (all levels)
True, I'll make note of those. The guide was created before there were any rival training spots. Even now, the SoS remains the best location to train. However, you're right. Mentioning the others and doing a comparison would be helpful. But to do that I would need to retest all of the alternate spots. That might take a while since I need accurate evidence.

So I Heard You like my Torso...Guide to Barbarian Assault
No. Jagex has stated that using the cannon does not harm your team in any way.
-
So I Heard You like my Torso...Guide to Barbarian Assault
I see. I'm also not sure if you mentioned that the cannon does not deduct your team's points. I don't think I saw it anywhere, but just to be safe I'll mention it now. It's true and it's confirmed.

So I Heard You like my Torso...Guide to Barbarian Assault
Very nice! I loved BA before, but the Torso isn't very good anymore. The best reward (currerntly) are the Penance gloves, and you should mention that. The Torso still has its uses, but it isn't nearly as good as the other options. Also, for the role of defender you did not mention to put 1 line of "wrong" food across the entrance to the escape cape. You said something similar, but not in front of the escape cave (you said between the cannons I believe). While you should do that too, if you put them in front of the cave you ensure that no runners make it through (unless you get unlucky and it eats the right food).
