mello757 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 DO NOT DO THIS SKULLED!!!:shame: The other day I accidentally chose shield when recharging my crystal seed into a crystal bow. Needing my bow I was posed with buying another one (900k) or buying another seed which I couldn't find available from players. Left with no other option but to degrade my crystal shield back into a crystal seed again, I started to melee creatures knowing that I needed 2500 successful hits to accomplish this. I did the math and lets just say it would take a long time. Then I remembered this one time when someone tried to scam me by luring me into the Mole holes in Falador Park/Gardens and getting me to extinguish my light source. I was on to this scam but played along discovering that there are insects there that attack you when your light source is extinguished. They do 1 damage to you and hit you about 3 times a second. So what I decided to do was this... 1. I took a light source, crystal shield, spade, tinderbox and went down the Mole hole in Falador Park/Gardens. 2. Extinguished my lantern/candle. It took 81 hits off my shield in about 30 seconds (varies depending on your HP lvl). 3. Died I turned on Prayer to save extra item near death. 4. Respawned in Falador. It would be considerably longer if you don't have Falador park respawn. 5. Equiped my shield and lit my lantern again. 6. Ran back down to Mole hole. 7. Repeat. Did it about 30 times in an hour and viola....a crystal seed. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wioneo Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I just finished doing this to get my bow to 180k. Also, people with lumbridge respawns can use the hole in the castle basement. You could bank at the chest if you want to use food to last longer. Sorry if this is bumping an old post, but I found this through a link...

aspokaspofkjsopfkapo Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 i'm pretty sure that there's another, much more complete guide to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geniusjoe93 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 There's a guide like this somewhere already in lumby caves which is better. But this is an old guide, so who knows... This could've been earlier. -3,940 to 99 Cooking~3,366 to 99 Magic- -1,241 to 99 Thieving~7,501 to 99 Ranged--14,608 to 99 Defense~17,528 to 99 Hitpoints- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owned_Nex Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Yeah, there is already a guide like this. Lumby is better since bank is close, aswell as a death respawn spot Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat. My PM is always off. My keyboard is on fire. Want some? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soma2035 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Umm just to let you know. This doesn't work anymore. You can not turn off your light source in the mole tunnels. It can not go out on its own. And you can not go down without one anymore. No, you can't alch it either. I tried when I was bringing dharoks to go after the mole. However, the lumbridge tunnels should still work. Want to learn to Nex? The Nex Hunters are recruiting! Click for more information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin6264 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 If you have a tinderbox in your inventory, I believe you still can extinguish your lantern. | The Complete God Wars Dungeon Guide (AoW) | The Berserker Necklace / Obsidian Weapons Guide | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

th3warr1or Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 how does this work for the Bow too? :o Click My Signature For Training Guide/LSK respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze914 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 the bow needs to fire 2500 times to degrade and scarabs might be a good alternative, they hit pretty fast. only problem is that they poisen and their quite high level or you could just take the shield to castlewars and keep running to other side :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
