bedman Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Have you actually fished Rocktails? The deposit box is like 15 seconds away. I usually don't even catch a rocktail in those 15 seconds.Still, you need to rebank quicker and you loose the benefit of the granite lobster which boosts your lvl AND fishes for you. You catch a grand total of like 100 Rocktails in the duration of a Granite Lobster. Fishing Rod + Minerals + 4 urns = You need to make 5 bank trips. Don't bring the urns, and you make 4 bank trips. So you save a whopping 30 seconds by not using the Urns throughout the life of a Granite lobster. Sure, you wouldn't want to camp for 4 lobsters with urns, but it's not like it's hard to get back to LRC (SSS -> Lassar -> a minute's walk). I tele after about an hour of fishing anyways to do an Herb run.What's SSS - lassar? I personally use combat bracelet to monastery and run from there.

Spellbook Swap? Schutzstaffel? Safe Spot? On topic: It seems decorated woodcutting and smelting urns are "missing"? Perhaps this means there may be upcoming higher level updates to these skills, along with a new higher level urn to go with it.

Naraku893 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 oh look another update to gain faster exp in already fast skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Ike111 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 oh look another update to gain faster exp in already fast skills. The only fast skill updated is cooking. While smithing and prayer could be considered fast, they are very costly. I don't understand what you are getting at. Mining, woodcut and fishing are all 3 boring and slow skills, so an added xp boost is always a pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mining, woodcut and fishing are all 3 boring and slow skills, so an added xp boost is always a pleasure. It doesn't even help smithing where it is fast. The smelting urn only helps while....smelting...Cooking urns barely add any xp/hr considering how fast cooking already is.And out of the other 3, woodcutting is the fastest at ivy being close to 100k xp/hr (?), however, the urns don't work with ivy. These urns barely made skills faster, and mining and fishing are among the slowest skills now. It seems Naraku really doesn't know much about this update, or the skills which it effects Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tele after about an hour of fishing anyways to do an Herb run.You're correct, in this particular case it is indeed wise to bring the urns, it results in an increase of +-1240xp. If you would have to rebank for extra urns each hour like you said (not everyone does farm runs), it would probably result in less xp/hour. Since you probably catch four or more rocktails in the time to bank + run back to LRC. A very narrow gap where these fishing urns turn out to be useful for high lvl fishers...

I'm pretty sure I can do an extra deposit box run, teleport, and come back before you can catch 20 Rocktails. Want to learn to Nex? The Nex Hunters are recruiting! Click for more information!

Crit2h Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Exp gains. As well as item gains to be considered. It's considered for players who pull away from chopping ivy, etc. Yeah, like that zaryte bowwaitrecharge costs = ammo.So, all melee weapons are overpowered, at least.this combat triangle finally makes sense...

Mikjall Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Before reading all material about urns I merrily went cutting willows with an inventory full of urns... Did get a little surprise when right after the first click it said inventory is full haha. Really hoped for an alternative to dropping/banking. Though i suppose the little xp extra is nice too...
