Who Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 With the completion of Swan Song Quest, one of the rewards is free seaweed that you can get in nets. The seaweed respawns much more quickly then any other source and a close bank. Also, the completion of Hand in the Sand Quest gives you free buckets of sand a day. Does this mean sand will actually be worthwhile crafting exp? :| The Complete MTA Handbook | Runecrafting Pouch Analysis | Mobilizing Armies Locator Index Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mov Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 if it actually is then jagex will probably lower its xp or the respawn rate of the seaweed :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwimbob Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Nope, Jagex finally through us a bone with crafting. The guy in the quest states that this is the fastest seaweed respawn and your character bluntly points out that glassmaking is now more effective, lol.

Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other.

RAHK Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Sad thing is: I can walk to the monks, take the boat to entrana, get a load of seaweed, AND bank it before I can get a full load waiting for those 2 to respawn. They need at least one more net to make it faster (yes I was on a full world). That being said, it is a great spot to fish AND gather seaweed. I bring a log, a tinderbox, a small net, and fish while they respawn. I usually catch between 0-4 per respawn depending on my luck. When I am full I light the log, cook the monks, grab another seaweed (to replace the log), cook the seaweed, then bank. Pretty good if you use that method to gather seaweed there but otherwise entrana is the better choice. PM me in game to use some skills of mine (glories/potions) free or to ask a question.Fire Cape - 04/29/06 Lvl 104RAHK's Pro PC Gear and Guide(clickable) Tired of hack and slash? FPSers getting old?

12pure34 Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 To my opinion, this is a great way of getting crafting experience, aswell as getting a good load of money and magic experience. Battlestaffs alch for 5k if I am not mistaking and it is sure worthwhile. The seaweed spawns fast and you can fish expensive monkfish during the gathering. Also you get the sand from hand in the sand' quest, so all you have to do is to turn it into orbs and 'worship' them to battlestaffs. Good profit!! Good experience!! No time gathering items!! No investment required!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalcyte Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 well...the only good thing i see with glass is orbs, which you can enchant and b-staff make. But b-staffs are a pain cause thers a 5 stock per shop and you have to charge the orbs. Battlestaffs alch for 9.3k ea btw and cost 7k about from the shop...then theres the cost of nats and cosmics....so its really its about 1.75k ea.
