Ok I'm confused on the lvl 96 spellbook change spell since I'm busy TRYING to study for finals...does it only change it from lunar to regular or can it be used to change from lunar to ancient? Also, what's this I hear about it being temporary? Does it autochange back after 30 seconds or so?

[Wachtwoord]

I just tried to fight and got owned by that 300+ thing two times (didn't die luckily :)). The second time i got cyrils (sp?) courage bar full, mainly by killing doubts. But he still didn't start to fight and his bar reduced to zero.

 

 

 

I tried ranging the big thing, using crystal bow and potting to lvl100 ranged. I guess i must have damaged him at least something, but it was damaging me way more. I know i'm only 88 combat and possibly that lvl70 def is too low, but has anyone any tips for defeating it?

 

I haven't done it myself, but sara brews would be a good idea.

[Sebasdesebas]

12x restore, pl0x?

 

Onyx Bracelet, Rapid restore+ this spell?

 

Can it be?

 

Me guessies Jesssssssss. :)

 

 

 

Wait wouldnt it be 8x?

 

 

 

edit : Shame on the first lign of your siggy :shame:

 

 

 

Noob evolution FTW. But the new spell does 3x, 2x because of Bracelet makes 6x, times 2 because of prayer equals 12x. Massive restore ftw?

You can use it to change from Lunar to Normal or Ancient for 1 spell. (the in game description says it's for 1 spell, not sure though, might be for a short period of time).

I've heard it's only for 2 minutes, which would be great if that was true.

[tomdavies90]

Yay for Jagex, they are on a good update streak \

 

 

 

Planking your own planks, I hope you dont need money for it. Who knows how cheap construction could become.

 

And talk to more npc's, what npc's are they bantering about :-k

 

Depends if it planks every one in invo or just one at a time, if its every one in invo then yeah dead cheap, but if it's just 1 plank at a time its same as ever

[Ltje]

So theoretically you could now first teleblock and then icebarrage a RCer. Scary.

[Bauke]

What's the recommended setup and inventory for the monster fighting? And is it possible to teleport out? Or should I leave my ectophial in the bank?

[Freesia]

It won't work because during the casting time where you were switching spellbooks, if you use tb first the rcer would have ran to the mage; if you use barrage first, the rcer would have tele. Won't work sorry.

I think you should always have some form of escape, if it is possible just so you can leave if the fight gets to hot. Somehow this is going to be Barrelchest for me all over again. :(

You don't have to say sorry for that, I'm quite happy for all the RC'ers. :)

Why do they do all the GOOD updates when I take a break >_<

 

At least a planking spell w00t!

 

Note to self: Monster Examine TzTok-Jad

 

 

 

EDIT: Done some sums...

 

 

 

Nature Rune : 300gp

 

Oak log : 50gp (Max)

 

Astral Rune x2: 150p

 

 

 

700gp to plank something. Not worth it for oaks or normal. Worth it for teaks and mahogany....Now, let's say you make your own runes...

 

 

 

Nature Rune : 100gp

 

Oak Log : 50gp

 

Astral Rune x2: 200gp

 

 

 

350gp to plank. Still not worth it for oak or normal. Now if you mine your own ess...I suggest going to plank it yourself for 250gp from sawmill, but if you REALLY wanted RC and Mage experience that bad....

 

 

 

Nature Rune : 0gp

 

Oak Log : 0gp

 

Astral Rune : 0gp

 

 

 

:wall: But hey, it's free planks =D

[One Too Far]

Who are the new people who you can contact?

[krisc6]

these new spells sound good although a tanning spell would freally be nice instead of a panking one.

 

btw does the cons spell work on mahog logs because it could really lower the prices of those.

 

stats spy is just a cool little spell.

 

 

 

what does the hunter one do?

 

seems like a high level update although 110+'s will complain for being another med level update

[rooneyrules0]

Cant do that because its on lunar and once you change to normals to tb your not on lunar anymore =p

 

FOR ONE CAST

1 cast of vengeance to then switch to tb isnt very helpful =p

 

1) Vengeance before your fight.

 

2) Switch to Normals, TB.

 

3) Switch to Ancients, Barrage.

 

 

 

Might even make a PK vid showing how over-powered everything is now.

 

 

 

 

 

From tlp forums (If you can't understand, you can get book on lunars, use switch spell, use tb, it goes back to lunar, use switch, barrage. switch barrage etc. So tb with barrage!!)

[Bauke]

Changing spellbooks will probably take a few moments.

 

 

 

But can anyone tell me what they used for the fights and if it's possible to teleport out?

[atestarossa]

did the quest an hour back or two... great fun quest... the boss wasn't too hard, and a little tip out there, when done with one part of the feeding of that guy, you can feed him with the same food again

 

instead of looking for 20 different foods

[JIMMIE]

Spellbook swap looks good, although now when people mage stake, they can't prove they arent on Ancients. Heh.

[Bauke]

I've heard from someone that did the quest that d'hide is the best.

Hai nooby chooby frooby Calcium! The guy up there a few pages back mentioned that it still costs Geepees to plank the logs yarly!. Lyke 175ish for oak so gf mate.

[Wachtwoord]

OMG! I lagged out and died! :x

 

Dang, I was doing very well, I got to the third monster with half of my food left. Then I died and when I was able to log in again, I was in falador. I lost whip, obby cape, rune boots and warrior ring! :x

 

That may not seem a lot to you, but it is a lot for me.

 

Ah, well, back to the abbyss... :(

[atestarossa]

i killed that nubcake with veracs, it's good for questing, no negative mage defence, good melee and range defence, and hits through armour, worked very good =D

 

 

 

btw, everyone about the spell swap is thinking about pking and tb and such..

 

 

 

but slayers? being on lunar, and using high alchemy?

[Potter_Pkr]

For those thinking about using tele-block then barrage, couldn't you switch to Normal spell book, you tele-block, then do spell again to switch to normal spell book and use snare so that now they cannot tele or move for 10 seconds. Then switch to Anicents and use barrage? Even if it is possible, still seems quite expensive for the runes used in total and time taken switching spells etc.

 

 

 

New quest looks very good, however if final boss looks difficult and with many people collecting goutweed I think I'll do the Quest during the weekend.
