Lego's Ultimate Elven Thieving guide [WIP]

[Steph 454]

1 hour under Meilyr/Iowerth VOS

 

Starting exp: 15 136 806
Ending exp: 15 522 285

 

Total exp: 385 479

 

No running, only teleporting.

No ardy 4/ibis/clan ava
10% thieving aura.

 

Didnt track clans :\ mostly the higher end ones (Meilyr, tratralhohrhaoraoeaern cryws heffin and amlodd) voice on Meilyr/Iowerth

 

 

Also your first post has Meilry VOS xp as 194, I'm getting 204

 

and you have No VOS as 160, I'm getting 170

 

Everything else was matching up though

[cowmaster187 370]

that is very interesting, i noticed that as well, but that means mealier breaks the pattern for some reason.

 

Thanks for the kick to fix it though. Ill have to make sure the others are right now. 

 

also I am surprised that without ardy 4 you are getting those kinds of rates. interesting indeed.

I was teleporting and using a preset with crystals/exo, banked at heffin crwys and traeerhorraeaeaen

 

I assume with the extra stuff you could hit 400k fairly consistently

[cowmaster187 370]

ill do some testing with it post haste. probs not tonight though.

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[cowmaster187 370]

OK did some updates and some fixes. is there anything you guys think i should move to the second post to make it less cluttered? also what suggestions do you have for improvements

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[Arceus 1270]

Just as aesthetics, it may be useful to put links to each section and throw in 'Return to top' links once in a while :).

[cowmaster187 370]

How do i do that within the post? That is something i wanted to do, I am just unsure how.

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[Arceus 1270]

Add anchors to the appropriate places, then anchor links.  You use the two buttons on the toolbar indicated in the picture below:

 

 

The one on the left is used to put an anchor right here ---> [anchor]anchor[/anchor] <---, and the one on the right to create a link back to said anchor.

 

[anchorlink=anchor]Like this.[/anchorlink].

 

It's more fully explained on this thread.

[cowmaster187 370]

Cool thanks, Ill be doing that for sure.

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[cowmaster187 370]

Ok navigation should be super easy now, I may have gone a bit overboard with the links admittedly, but I think they are ok

 

~~~Legoman187~~~

[Arceus 1270]

Very nice!  =)

[cowmaster187 370]

I have another question for Arceus or any one else that may know. Is there a way to, in the post, have a comment line that doesn't show up when it is edited for instance in most coding languages i have used there is a sumbol that you can use that doesn't affect the code and acts as a place where you can block code from running. is there such a thing in forumese?

 

This may need to get shifted to tech support or else where I am not sure

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[Arceus 1270]

Will wrapping it in code tags work?  I.e. turn formatting off, and type
 

[code]
Some text where you want specific symbols ignored
[/code]

 
Then it should allow you to type things that would normally get formatted without executing the formatting, which is what I think you were trying to do? For example you could type out:

[b]This makes bold text[/b]
[u]This underlines it[/u]
etc...

Actually scratch that, that's probably not what you wanted.  But I'll leave it here anyway in case you find it useful :P.

[cowmaster187 370]

yeah i knew about those. 

 

I am asking for something along the lines of a hide tag in practice, but doesn't show up except when editing the thread. 

 

To tech support!

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[Arceus 1270]

It's definitely worth a try asking there but I think for the most part it's an issue with BB code not supporting some things that HTML does.  May I ask which symbol specifically you're trying to have displayed?

[cowmaster187 370]

Well i want things visible only when i am in the edit screen so that i can work on them without being visible (because they are terribly misspelled and such). 

~~~legoman187~~~

[cowmaster187 370]

I need to shrink this picture i think

 

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[cowmaster187 370]

OK more pictures makes everything better. added 1 map (1 more to come) added a banner that i think looks snazzy, and did some editing today. Over all a good day for the guide

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[gago 82]

Not sure if anyone suggested that already (too many posts to read through :P)

 

Clan vexillum teleports you to the middle area, you can use that instead of elven crystals - no recharging needed.

[cowmaster187 370]

The crystal teleport you to the clan heralds which are closer to the workers to thieve from. vex teleport goes to lodestone which is not particularly useful. Thanks for the tip though.

I would only recommend running if you're being really lazy. Even with megaafk direct teleport is so nice

[cowmaster187 370]

For right now id agree. 

 

however based on a few tests, you still can thieve the same number of clans per hours which is kinda strange, ill need to look into that a bit more. I can swing about 12 clans an hour (~200 thieves per clan) with and without the tele crystals. i would have expected an additional clans worth of thieving if it were to have a substantial affect. I need to do the same test without the tele crystals to see what is happening and if there is a difference

 

also it does not seem that five finger discount does anything measurable at priffdinas.

[Steph 454]

Maybe you're banking poorly. I always make sure to bank at trae ithell crwys or meilyr.

 

Ideally trae and ithell but crwys is useful due to the number of logs you get there

[cowmaster187 370]

I don't bank at all, i drop most everything only keeping clan symbols and some noted things. My inventory doesn't fill up

 

~~~legoman187~~~

[cowmaster187 370]

so with tele crystals i did a 400k xp 1 hour run. with black ibis and a ava following you you could get that up to 444k or so. so yeah unless it gets Timboed it is the best thieve xp in the game.
