Snipers_end Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 clues mostly are fun, ok sometimes there is an enoying 1 that sends u somewhere in the wild or into the khazari jungle or other places where u cant tele to. and thats when they get enoying cuz it taking 2 much time etc. but since the terrorbird or explorer ring u recharge ur energy and runnig lasts much much longer so even the rant 'i had to walk to much cuz my energy was down after some time' isnt possible anymore... its not the idea of getting money its more the feeling of real joy when u see thge picture at the end and there it stands, 1 of those special items. that moment u dont care how many hours uve wasted on other useless clues. i wonder, if u ever had a clue with a zammy kite for example u would also compaint about them... What? ill repait it in a more simple way: theres no reason to rant about clues, they take like 15-30mins when u can tele to the places where u gotta go and maybe little longer if u get sended to places where u cant tele to or if u get enoying uri. also the only pll that rant about clues, are those that never got anything worth a fortune from it. I wonder if u would rand if u had a zammy kite or so from it... Learn ****ing English! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poopingman Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Nice. I can't count how many clues I've done with rewards that consisted of black d-hide, and a couple random rune items (large helm, pickaxe). Metal fans, check out my band!Still the King....

langer Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 They used to gave better rewards and from a simply money point of view, they are not worth doing anymore as you can find more methods of making more money per hour that are consistent. If you like the break it gives you, clues can be fun, especially of you have every emote items, quests unlocked and lots of teleporting means.

k00ldud95 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Indeed, clue scrolls are a complete waste of time in terms of profit. If you look at the established figures for profits form Clue scrolls you will find that they are of rather low quailty than many other methods of making money. This is, of course, is merely a redundant echo of the comments of the many other posts of this thread. :twss: Nechs require 80 Slayer and their main drop is cheap 50k rune boots.

Jacks0n Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Clue scrolls are fun. Just only when you bring blue d'hide chaps instead of blue d'hide vambraces to a place nowhere near a bank, with no tele, and home tele recharges in 27 minutes >. ~[Blog]~[CrystalMathLabs]~[Last.fm]~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexDT Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 clues mostly are fun, ok sometimes there is an enoying 1 that sends u somewhere in the wild or into the khazari jungle or other places where u cant tele to. and thats when they get enoying cuz it taking 2 much time etc. but since the terrorbird or explorer ring u recharge ur energy and runnig lasts much much longer so even the rant 'i had to walk to much cuz my energy was down after some time' isnt possible anymore... its not the idea of getting money its more the feeling of real joy when u see thge picture at the end and there it stands, 1 of those special items. that moment u dont care how many hours uve wasted on other useless clues. i wonder, if u ever had a clue with a zammy kite for example u would also compaint about them... What? Clues are usually fun, but sometimes you need to venture into the Wilderness, or the Khazari Jungle. You can't teleport to these places, so it can be frustrating and time-consuming. However, with the release of the Spirit Terrorbird and Explorer Ring, you are able to recharge your energy. This means that you can run for a longer period of time, and people who complain that clues are time-consuming because you cannot run continually must concede defeat. In my opinion, the primary motivation for completing a clue is not the monetary reward. It's the feeling of elation you experience when you receive a unique treasure trail item. In that moment, you forget how many hours you wasted and how many dry clues you have had. I wonder how many of you would complain if you finished a clue and received a Zamorak Kite. I think.

DarkAudio Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hmm... Personally i love clues! But Recently in the past 10 ish i have done the rewards have been rubbish! Nothing worth more than 30k!

Zierro Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 That's why I stopped doing clues. I tend to stick to activities which at least give you something no matter what - and no I don't mean 40k from 2 hours of running around. I'm talking about skilling where you'll always at least get Xp. Besides, I'm not lucky when it comes to RS anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saunamajuri Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 It`s a matter of taste. I myself find treasure trails exciting. Never gotten anything special, thought, best one being zammy page. My friend was lucky and got robin hood hat, when they still were 6m. Whenever i get a bad reward, i just think: "well, this pays for that clue, maybe i will be lucky next time :arrow: " And still, i always do clues right away when i get one. "An Amateur practices until he can get it right. A Professional practices until he can't get it wrong." Quests just keep bringing me back to this game.

Sir_Kurity Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I got a clue sitting in the bank because. Level 1 clues will make me run around for 10 mins, and then make me look at the black 2h and go, f that. Level 2 clues will make me run around for 15 mins make me look at addy armor and go, f that. Level 3 clues (because of my level) make me run around and fight random sara and zammy mages for up to an hour risking death in the wilderness due to revanents, which basically make me look at those rune platelegs, and go. F THAT. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodenFruit Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I luuuuuurve Clue Scrolls! :D I only do level 2's though because level 1's are pointless and you risk too much by trecking to the top of the map in the wilderness when doing level 3's, although there's a chance you can get 3rd age... Yes you do get crappy items but I still like getting firelighters :thumbsup: My best item would be a wolf mask which was 4.6 million at the time but it didn't sell and dropped in price fast so I only sold it for about 2 mill :( ______________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will H Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think clue scrolls are really great, but I wish that harder trails should make more expensive rewards more likely and cheaper rewards less likely. Running around, doing a puzzle box, navigating the elf forest, killing a saradomin wizard twice, going into the deep wilderness twice and generally trying very hard not to die should have at least guaranteed 100K of rewards. Level 2's and 1's are not worth the time, in my opinion, and I will drop them. ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzerlord Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 every clue is worth the minisqule time required imho. Even a lvl 1 clue can give you something relatively nice! Got 100k off a lvl 1 once :) from lvl3's I've gotten a few blk cavs, 1 of each S Zam hide pieces, a rune cane.
