I am very resentful of this. I was planning on training ranged before the weekend but I can't get any chinchompas. There is no net gain for the game, it just gets easier and you can't buy anything for training. Looks like I'll have to hunt them myself...

I wonder, is it more effective to first smith 7000 mith bars, or first construct 20000 mahogany logs.

5. In dungeoneering, do you get double tokens as well as xp?

----------

Nope. You get bonus XP, not bonus Tokens.

Who uses Oak anymore?

 

Last I checked (a week ago) teak is cheaper gp/xp and faster xp/hour.

 

I was making teak dining room benches (4 planks) with law, air, saw, hammer in invent and an earth staff and duelling ring (don't have a servant yet) so I could use all the planks in 1 trip.

 

Last time I checked 10 oak planks per dungeon door (600xp) was alot faster than 4 teak planks per bench (360xp).

The fastest way is 6 mahogony planks to make a dinner table (720xp).

 

 

SC is actually not as good for construction as it appears.

 

Using oak doors, a Sacred Clay Hammer lasts for less than 6 minutes and saves 25,375 exp worth of oak planks - 244k. It takes about 15 minutes to obtain each hammer using an SC world. You therefore spend 21 minutes total to get 12 minutes worth of experience, saving 244k in the process. Therefore, if you value your time over 1624k/hour, SC hammers are a waste of time.

 

Just for comparison, the time value at which using SC hammers for smithing adamant plates is about 4m/hour.

 

Of course, you could say that SC is more fun to do than train construction, but in a skill that you can train at 250k+ exp/hr the cheaper way and 600k exp/hr the slightly more expensive way, you should not be worried about boosting exp rates.

 

Its way better than your calculations.

You get 50k xp a sc hammer if your level is in the 90s.

Using a SC hammer gives you double xp.

That means its half price construction and half the time spent hammering away in obscurity at your home.

The other half of your time is spent at Stealing Creation.

Unless you suck at/hate Stealing Creation or have a fetish for making gp all day then SC hammers are the way to go.

To answer my own question:

 

For 6M XP:

 

Smith 2x Miths = 15H, 72M

Smith Gold AFK = 85H, 18M --> Save 750K/hr

Smith Gold SH = 43H, 30M

 

Con Oak Larders = 30H, 30M

Con Mahog Tables = 15H, 66M

Con 2x Mahogs = 7.5H, 33M

 

Thus 2xing miths saves:

70H AFK at the cost of 54M.

(or)

30H Non-AFK at the cost of 42M.

 

2xing Mahogs saves:

15H Non-AFK at the cost of 3M.

(or)

7.5H Non-AFK at the profit of 33M.

 

Assuming I'd rather choose AFK SHing or Mahogs normally,

70H AFK at the cost of 54M

against

7.5H Non-AFK at the profit of 33M.

 

By picking construction, I am saving 54+33 = 87M but losing 70-7.5 = 62.5 AFK hrs.

Thus if I value my AFK hours at over 1M an hour, which I don't, I would have picked 2xing miths. Seems like 2xing con makes more sense.

Um... can we has a key to all them acronyms?

 

Those things are seriously getting out of hand.

As a general rule, if you don't know one or two of them, you really don't need to know them anyway or it doesn't have anything to do with you, if you don't know more than 3 then the person posting is just daft.

Pretty simple, all you need to know is SH = superheating method (superheating while smelting); 2xing is pretty intuitive (use during 2x weekend); AFK = non-attention intensive ("Away from keyboard")

Well, thar's your problem. Pulling out an unheard of technique and forgetting to tell people.

is there a skill i can buy to 99 with like 40m cash?

There are multiple skills like that, and all buyables except for prayer if you consider inefficient methods....and that's without the weekend.

does anyone have the formula that Jagex uses to determine the amount of bonus?

I remember they posted it last time, but I cant find it,

 

From the DevBlog:

 

Here is what the multiplier will be for each thirty minutes of in-game time:

 

* 0-30 minutes: 2.7x

* 30-60minutes: 2.55x

* 60-90 minutes: 2.4x

* 90-120 minutes: 2.25x

* 120-150 minutes: 2.1x

* 150-180 minutes: 2.0x

* 180-210 minutes: 1.9x

* 210-240 minutes: 1.8x

* 240-270 minutes: 1.7x

* 270-300 minutes: 1.6x

* 300-330 minutes: 1.5x

* 330-360 minutes: 1.45x

* 360-390 minutes: 1.4x

* 390-420 minutes: 1.35x

* 420-450 minutes: 1.3x

* 450-480 minutes: 1.25x

* 480-510 minutes: 1.2x

* 510-540 minutes: 1.175x

* 540-570 minutes: 1.15

* 570-600 minutes: 1.125x

 

This time they just gave us the exact time intervals the bonus decreases at.
