Serpent Eye Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I don't know if this helps, but I'll share a tip that I've been finding helpful! :) At Taverly, after I'm done replanting the regular Tree, I run west to Bettamax and purchase 1 Juju teleport spiritbag (you just have to bring an additional 2,000gp with you on your Tree runs) so I can teleport to the Herblore Habitat and plant a Fruit Tree. Utilizing this, I've been able to get an extra Fruit Tree into my runs, for very little added time or cost. A lot of people don't find this to be worth it, but as someone who hasn't done the Elf quest storyline, I don't have access to the Lleyta Fruit Tree patch, so it makes up for that patch I'm missing! :) Edit: Oops! I've just seen your post saying that you aren't adding Herblore Habitat updates yet. But still. :P Edit2: I've also found a small coding error that maybe occured when we switched forums..? It's in section 6, Tips & Tricks, in the Summoning section: For more information, visit the Tip.It Summoning Guide here: <!-- m -->http://tip.it/runescape/?page=summoning_guide.htm<!-- m --> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Thanks guys. I'm a little busy this week/weekend so next week I'm going to add everything new into the guide. ~It's Super Effective!

Dax Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I'm sure I've been amazed at this piece of work before, but now I'm going to go full force for the big 99. Using your methods. : D #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regi Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 There's now a faster way to reach the calquat patch. Using a Tai Bwo teleport scroll (buyable on the GE for around 1k each) you teleport right to the patch, saving you loads of time. Also, after the Prisoner of Glouphrie quest, you can have 2 spirit trees. That way you can have one in Brimhaven and one on Misc, making both tree and bush runs faster. I'll post my bush run time when my spirit tree grows (my record is currently 2:25 :D) I'm quite curious on how you managed that insane herb run record. Were you on lunars, did you do both flowers and herbs and when did you start the time? I can't manage to push my time under 5:20 on normal mage, so I am amazed by that record of yours.

Zaaps1 Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 Sorry about no updates guys. It'll happen soon, I promise. Thanks for all the feedback; I will add it when the guide gets updated. As far as the herb record, I use Lunars and the fastest teleport to every location. The record in the guide was used including flowers, although I no longer farm them (you cannot farm all 7 herb patches with 1 dose of farming potion if you also farm flowers). ~It's Super Effective!

Dax Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Seven herb patches? Where are these extra herb patches? I guess you mean the Habitat patch and the normal five. Where's the last? #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I try to plant non-herblore habbitat seeds there.Yeah the idea is to plant herblore habitat seeds there. Of course, if you don't have any of those, going to the 2 additional patches is completely pointless and you might as well farm flowers. ~It's Super Effective!

Regi Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 As you might be aware of, after Prisoner of Glouphrie, there is a gnome glider right by the tree gnome village fruit tree patch. Many seem to believe that this is faster than duel ring to MA, spirit tree to inside the maze and then elkoy. Therefore, I decided to do some mythbusting, and these are the times for my tests. Note that I tested on a slightly slow connection using a mousepad on my laptop, so you can definitely do much faster than this. Results:Duel ring to duel arena and running to the glider (spent a few extra seconds on finding the glider guy in the stronghold): 32 secondsGlory to Al Kharid and running to glider: 40+ secondsDuel ring to MA and spirit tree to the village: 33 seconds So these tests don't revolutionize anything, but may be worthwhile noting, none the less.

So it's not too big of an improvement, then? If I may, can I ask you to time how long it would take to: a) Village fruit tree patch -> glider -> stronghold -> stronghold spirit treeb) Village fruit tree patch -> village spirit tree -> stronghold spirit tree I would like to see which of these two is faster and I have the feeling it's still B. ~It's Super Effective!

Regi Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Unless you want to knitpick about saving 3 seconds max with the duel ring -> glider method, they are not worth using, certainly not worth editing your guide for. I did the tests you requested, and added a third method - my own. Instead of running back inside the maze, I tele to MA again and to directly to the stronghold from there. These are the times: a) Village fruit tree patch -> glider -> stronghold -> stronghold spirit tree: 45 secondsb) Village fruit tree patch -> village spirit tree -> stronghold spirit tree: 30 secondsc) Village fruit tree patch -> MA tele -> stronghold spirit tree: 15 seconds I forgot to mention that these times naturally don't include actually harvesting and planting the patch, only the travel times between the patches. As you can quite clearly see, my method is superior ([/brag]). Also, my bush run record is 1:50 now (checking health, harvesting and replanting all 4 bushes) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Thanks. I plan to do a mass edit to my guide sometime this week, so I'll probably throw this in. ~It's Super Effective!

Serens_Hero Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Loved the guide. However (I didn't read many other replies, probably already mentioned) you could include Juju Farming Potions, and this would cause to rearrange the sequence of herb patches (starting at Troll Stronghold, as that is the biggest distance).

DyingSilent Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Speaking of JuJu pots...I got 32 Torstols from 5 patches, while under the influence of a JuJu Farming potion, at 94 farming. The next two runs were 43 and 44 Torstols from 5 patches. Good to know my JuJu pots are working GREAT. 2461/2496 Total, 35 levels to CompletionistSunstriker: Path to Completionist Cape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Would I be able to plant torsol at level 83 with Garden pie? Quest cape since 11th July 99 Farming 4th February 99 Cooking 31st August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amonitas Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Is it reliable and should I do it? I would only plant it on My Arm patch so I wouldn't have to worry about it dying...

DyingSilent Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Torstol are great xp, and you really don't have to worry about them dying too much. Just use supercompost ever patch, and they're definitely worth it. 2461/2496 Total, 35 levels to CompletionistSunstriker: Path to Completionist Cape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 So I can soon plant Torsol. Is it worth it? Should I replace Snaps with Torsol? Quest cape since 11th July 99 Farming 4th February 99 Cooking 31st August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosfreak2k3 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 WOW i love this post thank you so much. The only thing i hate is the patch in al kharid. Its only for cactus seed with u cant plant till 55. Other than that i love it thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regi Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 With the Trollheim graphical update, the route to the herb patch changed quite drastically. This is the fastest route:From the teleport spot, you go south, then west to the cliffside shortcut. From there you go west, down the little ramp and then down the cliffside shortcut. Then you go slightly west and straight north to the cave entrance. Once you're inside the cave, it's as it has always been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Is the new route faster or slower than the old one? Quest cape since 11th July 99 Farming 4th February 99 Cooking 31st August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 The shortcuts take twice the time, but overall I think it's slightly faster. ~It's Super Effective!
