Need to make sure on this, I used garden pies to boost my farming so I can plant some palm trees. If I check health on those trees without the level requirement to plant them, do I still get exp?

 

Yes.

 

No, you don't. You have to boost your stats again before you check health, else everyone could use magic trees for insane experience through assist.

I can't even play because I don't want to waste my timer and my Papaya trees have decided to take 20+ hours to grow :thumbdown:

I took / am taking the entire day (24 hours) off from Scape to let my calquat and palms grow. nothing wrong with spending some time away from RS

Quick question: if stuff like long bones and circus are multiplied, is the Wild Jade Vine (2500 slayer exp) and Tears of Guthix multiplied? Thanks.

 

Edit: My vine was diseased and died, cab't test it out :(

This really gets down to the morals of cheating versus the morals of being forced to throw away your life [1000's of hours] to access content you enjoy

Isn't life about throwing away your life (a job) to access content you enjoy?

15% of my way from 72-77 RC - my main goal. Made 81k RC and 17k Magic xp in about an hour and 15 mins. I keep having to break, though, because of my low attention span at grinding and my obsessive need to check the forums and make posts like this :P

Hello there,

 

We have looked through the code and found a bug where the amount of XP awarded for dungeoneering overflowed one of our variables. This stopped the awarded XP from being awarded.

 

As you can guess, this was not part of the plan. So we have placed in a new fix that will ensure there is no overflow. This fix will cap the bonus for the very low floors. This isn't the best solution, but we felt it best to get the immediate problem sorted.

 

Because we cannot recover what XP might have been awarded we have taken the opportunity to rollout a onetime reset of the Bonus XP timer.

 

I am really sorry that this has taken place. You can rest assured that I feel terrible about this occurring.

 

Take care,

Mod Fnord

 

Yay :^_^:

 

This mod is the one who is ALWAYS MESSING STUFF UP.

 

Why doesn't Jagex fire him?

I'm done with the main portion of my bonus exp weekend... here are the stats! :rolleyes:

All of this got me from 73 herblore to 85 herblore (and 40k from 86!!)

Ok, I think something's wrong. It's been 24 hours now and those trees haven't grown. Also I replanted yews about 8 hours ago. Is replanting trees not working during the weekend?

No, you don't. You have to boost your stats again before you check health, else everyone could use magic trees for insane experience through assist.

You can't assist with trees.

 

Are you sure about that? I know you can't assist with untradable seeds but I could've sworn a while ago I used assist for a fruit tree.

 

EDIT: Huh, sounds like I was thinking of something else. Guess you learn something new every day.

Those people that have been training skills non stop from the beginning of the bonus should now(actually 10 minutes ago with no logouts) be over the 10 hour limit(well, actually 11,6 hour limit, as it turned out), i'm currently half way done with 1,15, gained around 9.8m xp in that time, will finish off the timer tomorrow and then start summoning for another 5-6m xp. Too bad i missed the last weekend, but this is actually great fun.

Did my mage/palm/spirit tree run this morning (414,837xp). Will do a mage tree run tonight and do a palm/mage tree run tomorrow morning. I should be able to get all these done within the 2.7x multiplier time and then will move onto my least favorite skill - Agility. I'll do this until I hit 1.1x on the multiplier and then I'll make a decision from there to determine what will be next on the agenda.

I think herblore/runecrafting have killed my right hand. ;___;

 

I cant take my usual 20 minute breaks without feeling like I'm wasting time with this timer thingy running. >.<

You can log out for your 20 min break you know, and the timer wont go down...

Why can't the Big Bang be done by the hand of God?

It could have, but it is next to impossible because it also could have been caused by the flying spaghetti monster, or one of the other infinite number of deity possibilities.

I think he knows he can log out, it just feels like he's wasting time to him.

I've took quite a few breaks, and still have 1.6x left on my timer. I went from 98-99 magic, and 72-74 agility so far. Hoping to get 75 agility at least and when my timer drops to 1.1x I will probably start on 90-94 summoning. I won't get to that till tomorrow or late tonight though.

I did about 4 hrs early this morning, but then I had to go to work. I'm not sure if I'll get the other 6 hours tonight, tomorrow, or even Sunday... Ohh well, I'll see what I can do.
