4 January 2006 - Mage Training Arena

[lollol]

Yes probally update for very rich and all lvls people.

[Lionheart_0]

Actuly this update was ment for those just training. Guess jagex caught on that its boring just fighting monsters to train.

[ThE_YoYo111]

I cannot find it... can any one help me?

 

 

 

nvm

[Gellan]

Some things some players may have missed:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Telekinetic Theatre

 

 

 

Use the 'Observe Guardian Statue' to get a view of the whole maze. You can cast telegrab and walk around the maze from this view, but sometimes it switches back to normal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To telegrab, you do not have to be lined up exactly with the statue. As long as you are on the right side of the maze he will move.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alchemists' Playground

 

 

 

You can't take any money in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The items from the cupboards are not tradable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can only alch items from the cupboards, so no need to worry about alching your other stuff :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If there is a green arrow pointing to one of the items, alching that item is free - it will not use runes (It does not mean, as one person was telling everyone, that you get ZERO gp for alching)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Creature Graveyard

 

 

 

You CAN take food in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't 'Use banana with Food Chute' - there's a Deposit Food Chute option. If you need to eat some bananas to heal, eat before depositing!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think the reason for the 'Bones to Peaches' spell is to make healing here much easier. You may also be able to deposit peaches for faster points.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: You do not need a full load of bones: some types are converted into more than one banana (up to 4) as shown in the bottom right of the screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enchantment Chamber

 

 

 

I've seen several people using orbs with hole. There is a 'Deposit Hole' option which does all your orbs in one click.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The dragonstones which spawn here are not tradable, and (as already mentioned in this thread) will disappear if you try to take them out.

[urza1488]

"The dragonstones which spawn here are not tradable, and (as already mentioned in this thread) will disappear if you try to take them out."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, enchant them and u get 12 points!

[PlutoniumCross]

This update was obviously designed to help the poorer people who cant afford to make/buy alch fodders like yew longs, and cant afford the nature runes beyond 100 at a time. The alchemy place is great for someone with just 55 magic, as hi alch helps magic enormously around that level.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also this update is to utilise the previously largely unused cosmic runes and law runes (for telegrabing anyway)

[ozzie_the_owl]

 

Looks like master wand, and teh mage book, and possibly new spell are all thats owrth getting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If people appreciate Bones to Peaches. ;)

 

 

 

Just wondering how often Bones to Bananas was used before Creature Graveyard came out.

 

 

 

i know afew ppl who would use b2b on the bones of ppl they pked, and then eat em, but thats about it :?

Being as you make money (although only a little) on yew longs, and lose the vast majority of the money you spend on nats if you use the mini-game, i'd strongly disagree it's for poor people.

[cyco]

I think this was really meant for the XP. Every guy you talk to say a lot of about getting xp or you get it at the end or whatever. None of them say much about the clothing, nor do they wear it themselves. If the robes are better, it won't be worth getting for maybe 1 or 2 points better. Also hence the name "Mage Trainning Area"

[Gellan]

WARNING Alchemy Room GP does not have the same value as outside GP

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some players are "selling cheap nats - only 100gp" inside the chamber.

 

 

 

(You CAN trade nats and cash inside the chamber, just not the items from the cupboards)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Assume you bought 30 nats at 100gp each, no free alchs, and alching only '30gp' items:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From 3000gp, you would get

 

 

 

- 30 alchemy points

 

 

 

- 6000 magic xp

 

 

 

- 300gp into your bank

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From 30 nats, you would get

 

 

 

- 9 alchemy points

 

 

 

- 3750 magic xp

 

 

 

- 90 gp into your bank

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"100gp per nat" may sound cheap, but it's not!

Also hene Mage Trainning Area

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I agree. I especially love the occasional free High Alchemy spells. It lets me train on a spell I don't usually train on for free and get bonus xp.

I agree, either way tho I just cancelled membership, this game is to time consuming IMHO.

[saberlion]

In the enchanting room, its obvious that there are 4 corners, each with a different type of object. However, there is also one different type. So in the north two, the west is yellow, blue, and the east is green red. So, if the bonus is blue, you should go over to the east, because you have a 66% chance of being where the bonus object spawn. However, it is hard to do more than 6 or 8 in the time it gives you, so while i think this way is faster than waiting for your object to come up as a bonus, i could be horribly, awfully wrong.

 

 

 

Whatever, its all good :)

 

 

 

Also, if you log out while in an arena, you log in at the entrance to the training area.

[shadow_Fox99]

In my thoughts ( I dont know if this how been stated yet).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I was checking out all the new armor at the store, I saw that the prices were heavily based around the echanment room.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The reason jagex did this was because of the lack of use of cosmics in runescape. You rarly would of ever saw someone using cosmics in runescape. Besides that pooint it puts comsics back into the marcket. Now people have am acutal perpose to craft cosmics.

some1 is selling full infinity for like 30 mil on the armor board of the offcial boards

[Gellan]

To upgrade your wand, you need to have the old wand in your inventory (or wielded).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stats for Apprentice wand (apologies if it's already been posted):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+10 Magic Attack

 

 

 

+10 Magic Defence

I've found that my way works well to give you a prett yquick turnover:

 

 

 

I usually have 4 items in my invent (including bloods, deaths, cosmics and a dragstone). I run to any corner, half fill my invent with one colour, then fill up the rest with that 1 other colour pile in the corner (so 12 of each). When one of them comes up bonus, there is perfectly enough time to enchant all 12 of them. Then, either it's your other colour bonus (in which case enchant those) or it's not (in which case run to the centre, drop your 12 obs, go get 12 of another colour). This way you're 65% likely that the next colour will be yours if the current one isnt, so you rarely wait for long.

 

 

 

While you're waiting for your colours to come up, stand half-way between a corner and the middle, watching for dragstones.

Teacher wand isn't even out yet far as i'm aware, i highly doubt anyone has full infinity robes.

[blink182rocker]

[silver24-7]

did 1k so far got like 1600 pizazz.

 

 

 

I'm trying to get the bones to peaches spell but cant be bothered to get the othered pizazz especially the law ones =0 ='(

[Iglw]

gellan, can I use the info you get for my guide?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(well i used one tip already, but i meant the rest of the info you got)

When i said you could only enchant 6 to 8, i meant pick up, and enchant. Other than that, goo d job.

 

 

 

Also, it helps to put your items on the bottom, and then put the last item of what you're enchanting in a spot where you don't have to move your cursor in between choosing spell and casting it. Since all the other objects of that type are above what your choosing, it goes a little quicker than otherwise.

 

 

 

My two cents

[Spongehead91]

I'd love to get my hands on a full set of those infinity robes... But the price of them is...loads...

[kwimbob]

What does buying "bones to peaches" from the shop do?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I didn't buy it and the spell was green to me (though I didn't try it because it was 2 nats and I didn't want to waste one....)

I think youll find thats not the case. Its just because that is a very easy minigame, and is easier and less time consuming then the others.
