Magic guide correction

[snake6man]

I says in the magic guide under "spell tablets" that "the maker receives all of the experience (equal to the amount received if you casted the spell normally)

 

 

 

but this is not true. you only receive 3/4 the amount of exp as you normally would on the enchant tablets.

I was bored and I decided to check on this for you. I made some tablets and even used them, just to make sure it wasn't a special circumstance for those spell tablets. It appears you're correct!

 

 

 

For example: I had 1,194,760 magic experience before creating an emerald enchant tablet. After making the tablet, I only gained 28 experience (to 1,194,788) which was 0.756756756... the experience it should have been (37 experience for casting the spell normally).

 

 

 

I thought maybe that the guide meant just that the tablet user wouldn't get any of the experience and the only one who would is the tablet creator, so I checked the Magic Guide and found that you quoted the Magic Guide exactly: "The player who uses the tablet does not receive any experience; the maker receives all of the experience (equal to the amount received if you casted the spell normally)." Here: http://tip.it/runescape/?page=magic_guide.htm#tabs

 

 

 

I also checked the construction guide to see if it mentioned anything and under the beginner's guide listing for the study it says basically the same thing: http://tip.it/runescape/?page=construction_beginner_guide.htm

 

 

 

Neither guide would be necessarily wrong, except for the part in the Magic Guide in the parenthesis which expressly states that it's always equal to the amount received if you casted the spell normally. As you correctly pointed out, the tablets for enchanting jewelry don't give the equal amount...even if you create it at your own lectern (which I thought might have made a difference, but doesn't).

 

 

 

It makes me wonder if it was a change and if any other spell tablets only give 75% experience when made!

That's rather odd. I always remember the tablets giving full experience. I'm guessing it's a recent hidden update, I'll take a look through the patch notes.

Fixed, thank you. :) Should be up on the site soon.
