Lord-kain1 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 well the upgraded version makes steel currently 1 get a steel arrow in my quiver ever so ofter ( moving around increases rate) i also have gotten steel knive and steel dart this way, but those seem to be at a lot mroe random rate and shouldnt be counted on. this back pack is awsome for a lot of thing... pretty much everything except pking you can even train range with like a crystal bow and as you run around youll gain iron\steel arrows you can use later( or sell even) this makes agility and a lot of long distance running activites extra money makers( rcing anyone?) in short this is a plan awsome little extra that you should have equiped unless you really need a better alternative( using this for barrows insted of god cape would be really pushing it and i dont think it would be worth it lol) LK1 this random comment brought to you today by ADD: ADD, bringing random entertainment to all for generations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord-kain1 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Didn't really understand the update on the main page when i read it. Can someone explain to me what this quest is about? heres the plot in a nutshell your mission... gather 2 undead chickens: one to be used as bed fluff and the other to be used in a reward for getting chicken number 1 after some running around and more item gathering and bad puns and anoyances you get, in essence, an undead chicken in a backpack that uses a maget to find arrow heads then makes arrows and puts them into your quiver. more you walk around the "faster" you get arrows, currently ive gotten about 300 steel arrows 1 steel knive and a steel dart just from doing what i normaly do while having it equiped LK1 this random comment brought to you today by ADD: ADD, bringing random entertainment to all for generations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarfie76 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 ya and thieving would be good uses and some other skills like mining,hunting and wc and stuff...but not for fighting most likely The attractor doesn't work if you have an axe or pick equipped or in your inventory... the metal ruins the magnetic attraction, likewise weapons (other than ranged) and metal armour. And you need to be on the move for it to work so combat, mining, woodcutting are out. Agility and runecrafting would be good, thieving, farming, hunting not too bad. Other things like collecting herblore seconds, picking and spinning flax etc are also good. I get around 1 steel arrow per 7 - 10 seconds of moving about.

dude_of_war4 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 its quite good but u would have to walk around ALOT to gain enough arrows to sell easily like...1k click my sig for my blog!!!Thanks everyone for the sigs they pwn!No. Why should i give presents for someone in rs?Most selfish thing I've ever heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 only chest armor stops it from collecting metal, because the chest plate/chain wraps around to your back where the thing is loctated, and is closest to the device. btw +4 ranged cape is a good rangers cape. i was hoping the usage of steel arrows armor the device would encourage it to be a better collector, but i dont think it is.

Kashi Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 AHA! But there is a downside to everything. Now people will be making botss 5 at a time to gather arrows. They will leave at night, and when they get back their 5 bots will have 10k arrows each! Thus making the price of steel and iron arrows -plummet-! It will be hell on earth I tell you! My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zarod Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 It worked fine for dragon weapons, with a wc axe, just they really aren't counted as metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wachtwoord Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I think it is deffenitly worth it. And I'm very pleased about the newest quest rewards anyway. :mrgreen: (balloon travelling, herb patch without disease, rabbit foot amulet and now also this amazing device :D ) When everything's been said and done, more has been said than done.All skills 80+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just ran from Lumby to Draynor, rune axe in hand and picked up 9 arrows... must not have tested it enough before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ts_Stormrage Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 How about a rune pickaxe, will it work with that?

Idarodo Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 How do you upgrade it? Can you just equip it and go do stuff you usually do, and get free arrows and things? I really didn't get a clue about what some people talked, I haven't done quest, you know... #-o 6,521th to 99 woodcutting | Fletching 98/99 | Idarodo | Combat 90 | Total 1565+ | 38m+ total exp Retired.

Mirror Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 So has anyone done any averages yet of how many arrows are collected? I really like this item so far, it is making me wanting to do it now. A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.

jedidude77 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 i think it's good..no doubt about it, especially for skilling =D> There's no such thing as "wireless." Just really long extension cords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumpta Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I love it, I'm saving up to train range. To give an idea of the spawn rate: while running around the patches to farm trees, I gathered 45 steel arrows. (In approx half an hour). Only problem is, I might never use them. I use mith arrows right now because my range is so low and I get frustrated with steel arrows. After that, I was going to move on to the crystal bow...
