jasignhagj Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I had some left over money on a Visa prepaid card, so I decided to sign up for a month of members. Thing is, I have no clue what to do or where to start. My stats are below(+ 22 mage, 24 range and 24 RC) I'd like to explore the members world without getting myself killed, and make a bit of money (I only have 300k). Any pieces of advice or ideas are welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilformen Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 if youre going to have p2p for long-term, work on questing, and training member skills to balance out your total. farming/herblore, summon, slayer, just work at stuff gradually, and try to enjoy yourelf. 32,606th to 99 magic || 15,388th to 99 dungeoneering || 12,647th to 99 farming14,792nd to 99 range || 24,954th to 99 herblore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasignhagj Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 After wandering around lost for an hour, I made it to the gnome agility course, and trained some agility. What are some good ways to make money in p2p with my stats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgmr185 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 On my first day of members ~5 years ago, I logged on and...... OMG CATS!!!! So, I did the quest and got a cat. After that I just randomly trained skills for a few months as they caught my interest. Got a good feel of the overall game that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I'd go around starting up quests and doing random stuff, getting a cat is nice, unlocking summoning and herblore too (free total levels :P). To make money, get a farming level (33 or so) and farm ranarr. You should be able to quest those levels.

Nifflin Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Do you plan on only one month of members? If so take the opportunity to get your prayer up. It's much cheaper in members PM me in game anytime It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet. That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying.

Cheat Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Barrows gloves are one of the most awesome pieces of equipment there are in the game. Start questing and skilling to be able to claim these - this will give you a good experience of the whole world make you train important skills and give you a good amount of quests and quest points to work towards later goals with and a very good piece of equipment.

dragon246665 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Before you get too bogged down with anything, I would suggest you just have some fun, explore, run around, try some minigames, whatever. I remember when I first got members that first week was probly the most fun I've ever had in runescape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjon123 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 If you only plan on getting it for a month then go do priest in peril and do slayer with manchza Its great fun :thumbup: 1,000 F2P Total Level Reached 10/8/10 !

Sir_Squab Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Personally, if you're only getting it for a month, go kill dragons for money imo. If you're doing it for long-term, just beat a bunch of quests. Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

jasignhagj Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 I'll probably keep it till the end of summer. I'm trying to get every members skill to 30, but since I plan to return to f2p eventually, getting members equipment is somewhat pointless. After getting the skills to 30, I'd like to level some f2p skills with better members methods and make some money for crafting and prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esb Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 When I was on my first day of membership, I did the cat quest first, too. :P I also trained some agility at Gnome Course and some slayer (and I fell in love with slayer, directly!) :) Northern Gods - Event CoordinatorOf The Gods - Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swagcake Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 first thing i did was some gnome quests (i think for spirit trees) and castle wars.since then, i've played around 2300 more castle war games Go Chicago Bears!

Leaf Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I'd say do a few quests for fun first. I can't think of many good money making methods that are low-level and not infested with bots. Also, get at least 43 Prayer before your membership ends - it's sooo much easier with a Gilded altar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Just want to remind you, when you p2p, there is no way back to f2p. It will simply feel empty and boring. Quest cape since 11th July 99 Farming 4th February 99 Cooking 31st August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasignhagj Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 Just want to remind you, when you p2p, there is no way back to f2p. It will simply feel empty and boring.I figured that much. I won't have time to play during the school year though, I have an insane courseload. The problem I have with quests is I can't figure them out on my own, but I feel like I'm cheating if I use a guide. Prayer is something I'd like to be able to do, but I'm relatively broke (300k).

Amonitas Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 School and runescape don't mix up well. One will always take away the other. I really have no idea what you should do during your time in p2p though.

jasignhagj Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 I need a better way to get around, crossing white wolf mountain is a pain. What are some good ways to teleport around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Most of the teles will need to be unlocked. After you do, you actually never have to walk again. Try to do the fairytale part II. It will unlock the fairy rings, which are incredibly useful. Quest cape since 11th July 99 Farming 4th February 99 Cooking 31st August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirCarrot Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I played pest control a lot when I first got my membership, after awhile I settled down and quested a bit. I recommend you go and play some of the many p2p minigames. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
