dangeresque Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I was just wondering do more people use the knowledge base guides, or the tip.it or any other fan site guides....i always use the tip.it guides, but sometimes when something new comes out (like all the new stuff that came out today) i look at the knowledge base because i dont have to wait a day or two until other sites have it up. So, what do ya use...knowledge base or fan sites? please post :XD: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video_Tycoon Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Mainly Tip.It. But if I'm not on Tip.It, than it would be on the knowledge base. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycho_Robot Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Tip.it, definitely! The knowledge base is surprisingly unhelpful. I only consult it for new stuff that isn't on tip.it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amazizing333 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Tip.it, definitely! The knowledge base is surprisingly unhelpful. I only consult it for new stuff that isn't on tip.it yet. sounds the same as to wat i do... :^_^:except for the unhelpful part... KB is actually helpful, it has pics and stuff... but the Tip.it's guides r player made, so better! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaanniiellh Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 i like reading the guides for entertainment :lol: But overall, I like the KB better in its pictures and the basic skill related information, but Tip.it is better for higher level information and guides for non skill information. : 1437 : 173Lowest Combat to 1,000 Total in F2P (23 Combat)Check me out on YouTube!

tripsis Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Tip.it, definitely! The knowledge base is surprisingly unhelpful. I only consult it for new stuff that isn't on tip.it yet. My guess would be because there are certain things that Jagex wants us to discover on our own, they don't want to tell us. Whereas here at Tip.it, we reveal all! :wink: :-w I usually skim the knowledge base when a skill or update is first released. But I always refer to Tip.it after that. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randomnameless Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I use the tip it guides. They are some much easier to find what i am looking for.

Elphinstone Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Well to be quite honest, the knowledge base gives out the necessary information for quests and for skills. They leave the rest for you to learn... I've seen areas of tip.it guides that haven't been updated when other areas have... (For example, on the ranged skill page, chinchompas were not put on when hunter was put out, and i still haven't seen them on there.)... But, if i'm stuck on a quest, i will use tip.it. Really, i use whatever resources i can get my hands on, excepting, of course, RuneHQ. And Tip.it is always my first choice for information. Only if Tip.it doesn't have it will i go somewhere else. : Which FF Character Are You?"The only tyrant i accept in this world is the still voice within." - Mahatma Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 KB for general stuff. Tip.It for exact exp, skill and quest guides. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Tip.it FTW 8-) . Usually after an update is out, i usually race to mine rune, afterwards i just skim through the kb for what the new update is about Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Shyla Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Tip.it But usually when a player asks me questions, I'd rather refer them to the KB since I know I'd probably get reported if I direct them to a fansite.

rft Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I rarely use the KB. I tend to only use it if there is something new out that I want to figure out before Tipit does it. Having said that, I was amazed (and pretty impressed) how quickly the interim guide to hunting came out. Also I find that the KB (and RS generally) often loads pretty slowly, so I tend to use the TIF a lot more.

Geordiequeen Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 It totally depends. If it is something that has just came out or something not involved with runescape directly eg the rules then knowledge base. If it is item info runehq.com and for everything eles tip.it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistymaple Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Tip.It out of default. But I think lots of newer players will use the Knowledge Base, its good for newly released skills like the Hunting when there wasn't a guide here yet.
