Hm? Why ecto to save your glory while rcing when you can...

[shade_bandyt]

i think bottom line, ecto is the best option. true you lose 1 spot for an extra ess per trip, but you are more likely to save your glories and pouches. it would be a LOT more time wasted to die and buy another glory or hunt for more pouches. if you die and lose your pouches, you lose all the time you saved in trips taking 1 more ess. its not worth it

[Freshwacka]

 

 

Umm how about you skip the whole tele device thing, and bring 2 law runes a fire rune and wear an air staff...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Craft a load, tele to edge, repeat...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Takes more time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And how does it take more time...?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You get to run from the trapdoor to the bank... not much time at all....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You may think "Oh thats just a measly 10 seconds what are you babbling on about?" But when you're crafting 10k+ nats, that time adds up to be alot.

[qopitar]

 

 

umm how bout you guys take rings of dueling instead alot cheaper dont see why people take glories :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Because when you go into a atlar in the abyss, you go to the real atlar, and when you exit it's where ever the entrance to the tlar is. Glories can tele you to edgeville, as dueling rings cant.

 

 

 

Duel ring to Cwars, glory to edge :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm a big chicken and take this one step further. Leaving Edgeville, I cross the bridge and then head northwest to the wizard. All of the pkers wait on the other side of the river.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also connect to servers that have very few players on them (duh!).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That said, I'm thinking that I just might start forgoing the dueling ring. I haven't crafted tons and tons of runes, but I've only been attacked once, and it was just an entangle (and then I ectoed). My combat level is only 71, maybe this is shielding me from the serious pkers?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I use a laptop touchpad so I'm not always super-accurate with the mouse.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FYI - I carry an ectophial, a shark, and the two pouches that I can use. I wield a mighty bronze pickaxe.

[caskade]

I think that it is fun when there are rc pkers out there. It kind of turns into a game of cat and mouse. I usually toy with them, saying "boo to rc pkers" or "rofl look at you pking at abyss" just to piss em off. Then I go different ways to confuse them further when they are mad. Like go the bit longer way, or go right through the 'pkers mound' or just walk past them as they splash on me :P . Kind of funny if you ask me. I've never been killed either. Had a close call once, but hit the button in time. You guys should start making a game of it. Makes the runes go by faster. :lol:

[Pionex40]

The best defense vs Abyss PKers is simple, a good offense.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Full ranger gear, mage short 25 rune arrows, 1 prayer pot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When attacked hit prayer pot, turn on mage prayer, retaliate with arrows.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heck you may even get a kill.

Yes, but with the dueling ring method you can tele to castle wars, pull your glory out of the box, tele to edgville and bank your glory. A little longer, but a lot safer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-Gid.

[mysteriousme16]

seems like a good idea actually...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i would rather loose a glory than spend the next 1hr trying to get my pouches back in the abyss...

[lagatag]

umm how bout you guys take rings of dueling instead alot cheaper dont see why people take glories :lol:

 

 

 

Because you can't tele to edgeville with them...

 

 

 

:roll:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And when I abyss RC, I almost enver run into pkers who are in my danger zone, 101-111, who could actually attack me. Most players that high that go there are rc'ers because they've realized they make more money rc'ing then trying to pk some noobs for a glory and some essence. Bringing a prayer pot is still a good idea anyway especially for levels 80-90 becuase thats what most pkers are.

[smartme]

that honestly does make alot of sense, i think i'll try it

[Lord_K]

but it's fun to see their little scary wagons run to edge and then switch. plus i then know that i've made rcing through abyss a little easier to someone.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah a good tip is always do a reconassaince mission before abbysing take dds plus two more items, also an expendable tiara and food. If there is someone there and they attack whip out dds and armour and slice and dice em. If they win oh well canoe back to edgeville and swap worlds. If they run or die you, they'll probably end up logging because of this "overpowering threat" You might get some good items of someone elses patheticness and greed.

[enjoi8882]

we use ecto bcuz usually the first spell is entangle so then if u get entangled u can jus clikc on ecto and save ur glory and if u die u lose [pouches which r so hard to get back

[uk_swat]

Most people know this,sorry to put you down from your high :)

[wakka102]

Im not too worried about myself as I am 122 cb I dont think very many will mess with me 8)

[bigmoneyak]

If you dont want to loose a glory, you could just use the Edgeville ancient magicks spell.

This is the best way to rc in my opinion. If you get tbes you can escape throug the abyss hopefully... if thancient you just tp away. No big problem. Plus if you wield a rune axe you can cut both the yews down real quick.

 

 

 

Thats my method anyway:-)

[bantam222]

the pouches disapear if you die with them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you can however drop them and telly back up too get them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i stiff use eco tho, 70 RC

[Saru Inc]

or just use a god cape and book.. after all they r free...

[You_Lose_Now]

Just use ancient magicks to tele back like i do, charging glories is such a hassle. Also, pkers either use tb first or entangle/ice spells first, if u get tb'ed then just run and chances are u'll make it into the abyss if ur wearing dhide, if u get entangled/frozen just tele rite away..

[Emmentail]

Well I use the abyss alot and i'm lvl 88. Which is ideal for mages and rangers to attack.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have Never been killed using the Abyss. And I've made over 100k nats there. I always have full invent of pouches and essence. Glory on, sarabook, god cape, dragonhide armour (i have a few sets) and then i put on boots of lightness, some random gloves like ghostly ones and ghostly hood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I always see people running towards me with ancient staff raised and when I see the splash I laugh. There are occasions when they've hit me, (not for very much though) and then i've simply dropped a rune essence, taken off my glory and teleported back to edgeville.

 

 

 

Then I got my bow out and went and kicked the little [bleep]s rear all over the hill they were stoof on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hate abyss pk'ers. I think it's so sad they have to resort in wasting all that time hoping to find someone their level to come along and steal one glory normally... Hardly alot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If I ever got entangled then I just waited for it to wear off.. Without ancients they couldn't exactly hit very high and with dragonhide on normal spells splash alot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If I do see myself entangled then I drop + tele straight away. That or I pray im next to a skeleton and i attack it..

 

 

 

They are SO handy becuse the pk'er can't hit you and on ocassions the pk'ers have come under attacks from skele's and i've ran past laughing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Abyss for life <3

[Hegel]

Hey guys why do you all ecto out or teli out when getting attacked by a abyss pker? What if your teliblocked? SOLUTION: take a prayer pot (1) and protect your glory. You can bring a ecto two. Whats the big deal if you lose an extra slot? After you die you can teliback to edge grab your pouches before they dissappear, world hop and rc :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Most RC-Pkers start with entangle and then TB...so once you are entangled you can ectophial out. Protect Items won't work because most Abyss-RC'ers bring armour along.

[dragoncmd]

 

How fun does it to PK someone who doesn't even have the correct equipments to defend?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not those loser who says "0mgz!11!11 i l0st my st0ffs gett1ng pk3d!11!1one!11eleven!1!!". But I don't know how to say what is the feelings, it's really pissed off when you only wanna get some runes crafted and nothing else.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's not for fun. They do it for the ess!

 

 

 

I'm not one to complaing about pkers (after all thats what the wilderness is there for) but why do they risk 200K+ (I believe thats the starting price for a mediocre pking outfit) for 28 essense?

I doubt they pk most people for essence. Many Abyss RC'ers wear full dragonhide. Many wear glory amulets. A few will carry ddp's for a lil extra defense. A few will carry a rune pickaxe to use to mine your way through one of the obstacles in the Abyss. Risking a 200K outfit on pking Abyss RC'ers is not a hard choice, considering 9 out of 10 RC'ers carry at least something that can be sold or alched for money, yet maybe 1 in 20 actually carries a countermeasure against abyss pk'ers (most of whom use magic. Plus, if you abyss PK someone who gets ticked off, you have time to world hop or to get out of the wild before your victim comes to exact revenge. So you can get at least enough cash off your spoils to pay for your suit, if not more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Especially if you have Ancient Magicks. You can hit opponents hard even if they have high magic defense...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Few Abyss RC'ers think to bring a bow and arrows to counterattack with, so for the most part a mage has nothing to worry about.

[Smavey]

My foolproof solution that has never failed me, ever :D :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Go on the east side of the river and come to the zammy dude from the north east. It's foolproof. I'm suprised that pkers haven't caught on lol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It works every time :P

something isn't right hu?

[Tosi]

"Oh thats just a measly 10 seconds what are you babbling on about?" But when you're crafting 10k+ nats, that time adds up to be alot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actually thats only an extra 61 minutes and its well worth it considering get pouches takes forever.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't rc pk because the way I look at it is the more I kill runecrafters the higher the price of runes will be because runes are harder to get... And as a mage I like low rune prices and therefore I dont rc pk.
