May 8, 200620 yr I tried to buy grapes to day to get some fast cooking xp. Went to a few worlds and got 0's every time. Found out why on Runescape Forums: Paul Jagex Mod 08-May-2006 18:33:31 Last edited on 08-May-2006 18:53:02 by Paul We've made some adjustments to grapes and flour in the culinomancers chest. This change is because those quantities were accidently on the generous side, for example if we'd intended for grapes to be THAT easy to obtain - we'd have been a lot more stingy on the amount of cooking xp given for making wine. We have introduced a temporary fix to the chest - as we do not want to reboot the server, kick everyone out the game and force everyone to redownload the client, just for this. This means from time to time you might see the stock on those items in this chest suddenly go to zero - this is the known result of the temporary fix - so please don't report it as a bug. We are still adjusting things - but we feel it's safer to leave the numbers of grapes and flour temporarily on the low side for the time being till A)we've decided what is fair amount. B)Till we want to do a full game upload. Sorry for any inconvenience or confusion caused.
May 8, 200620 yr darn, i havent don the quest but have heard about the great exp. curse my low level and inability to do quests! :evil: In Soviet Russia, glass eats OTers. Alansson Alansson, woo woo woo! Pink owns yes, just like you!GOOOOOOOOOO ALAN! WOO!
May 8, 200620 yr CURSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I liked making easy pies! :cry: :^_^: I drew that smilie, btw, along with a few more used by this site.Classic bloodveld for lyph3! Although I do like the new ones.Like a ninja, here I was, gone I am now.BUT! I may be back! Add my new account, Dr Bloodveld!
May 9, 200620 yr You know what, that quest required a lot of skills and time to do, I think we deserve those grapes and flour. Im sick of jagex making everything harder and harder. Here's some that I can think off the top of my head without thinking: 1. Coal trucks reduced to 120 pieces, used to be 250. 2. Cannonballs, now 25exp per, used to be 37.5 exp per 3. This now Im sure there is much more. 1600+ Total. 18.3m/25m - DFS (or maybe a BGS)
May 9, 200620 yr DARN I used taht to make easy cakes + pies,GREAT xp :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Actually they only messed with the grape respawn (and maybe the jugs) because that was giving insane and extremely cheap exp (200k an hour). My friend just got from like 70-73 cooking last night from it though :lol: I also find it interesting that Jagex can make an item's stock just go to 0 without making an update... maybe they're secretly doing that to some of the runes after updates to even that out :P Combat 116+; Total 1900+; All Hard Tasks; (Nearly) All quest points; (Nearly) All skills 60+; An aquatic moose ninja.Currently: Using 63 hunter to get some of those "Chins", then I'm going to range stuff down. Interruptions of agility when I feel like it, as well.And lucky enough to get 4 Dragon and 6 Barrow Drops.[hide]Kwimbob now looks exactly like me in real life except for hair color. 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. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender.

May 9, 200620 yr Im suprised they haven't nerfed the chocolate bars yet. The self-proclaimed king of bronze.
May 9, 200620 yr Author When i tried the chests, i only noticed about the grapes. Didn't pay attention to the flour. Got that from the subject of the message. The message has been edited, so maybe they changed flour again.
May 9, 200620 yr Im suprised they haven't nerfed the chocolate bars yet. You can get comparable stock from the store in Nardah, and besides access to a virtually unlimited supply of chocolate bars isn't nearly as unbalanced as 200k cooking exp per hour. You still need the herbs, after all.

This now Im sure there is much more. It was too easy before, same as all of those items. As Paul once stated: "Would you guys be happy if I just put a lever in the game that gave you 99 in all skills?"

May 9, 200620 yr Aww, and I liked that chest >.< Well, I guess 200k exp per hour is a little unbalenced, they should make it maybe 25 or something, rather than 50. After all, a lot of work goes into that quest, so the reward should be great. However, that chest is what was responsible for me being able to get 70 cooking (from 63) in the first week of the quest's release (and supplying me with a lifetimes supply of chocolate cakes ^_^) At any rate, they better not nerf Monkfishes exp, or else I will really get angry :twisted: "Those who know nothing, can understand nothing" - Ansem, Kingdom Hearts
May 9, 200620 yr Good thing that I got from 76-80 before the update... :lol: Thats all that I wanted too, so yay! :D Now sharks are about the same exp so whatever :P
May 9, 200620 yr its all part of Jagex's giant schmeme to discourage poeple from playing runescape so when they close runescape there wont be mass riots because of people who still love the game. Those evil scoundrils
May 9, 200620 yr Oh give me a break people, this isn't that big of a loss. Leveling cooking using the wine chest method was ridiculously fast with almost no cost to the person doing it. Jagex wants you guys to enjoy the game, not get 99s within a year then quit :) The self-proclaimed king of bronze.

It seems like a good deal of people would be happy with all the autoers running around..
May 9, 200620 yr 2. Cannonballs, now 25exp per, used to be 37.5 exp per yeah... if they kept it at the same level, then there would be no need for anvils anymore... not to mention the money you can make of this...

May 9, 200620 yr I liked getting flour from there, it's too hard and longwinded to make :\ Aslong as they don't lower it to less than 20, It'll be good still. I made 1k Pineapple pizzas by getting everything (Other than pineapples) from there within the first week of release. Not bothered about the grapes, I never did it anyway.
May 9, 200620 yr stop complaining people! most of you haven't played RSC I guess, it is SOOOOOOO much easier to level all skills now, 200k exp an hour is just ridiculous. I understand Zezima who;snot happy with how much easier it is to get high lvl's now then it was in rsc... Playing since February 2003

I understand Zezima who;snot happy with how much easier it is to get high lvl's now then it was in rsc... Back in RSC you could easily get 200k cooking xp an hour, and you MADE money.

May 9, 200620 yr all because someone made a post of it :S No, all because server-hoppers keep trying to get more resources than the game intended!
