Seanthorn Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 I'm quite suprised how many people have commented and views this topic. All these people saying this is a stupid thing to argue about, just LOOK at how many people have commented, and viewed. That just proves its a interesting update people want to discuss...

Dragondan_Ro Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 take a knife and a waterskin or two(or three)then you can stay for a long time.

Happysniff Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Oh is it really that hard to go back to the way it was before powermining granite? Powermining granite made mining too easy, I actually support this idea, you shouldn't complain about this update, the game is easy enough as it is. Then again you COULD always just bring 1 waterskin and a knife, then tp up your waterskin at a nearby cactus, sounds good much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini193 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 good thing I just did enhjakara's lamnent a week ago before the update. never powermined there, but they should bring it back Doing a little bit of everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfhunterXZ Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Umm... Boohoo? Sorry. Use iron? lol. Iron is more useful than granite anyway... I don't really believe in power(insert skill here). It's an overfocus and quick way to gain levels. Anyhow, so what if they changed it? It makes sense that they did though. It's not like rock magically makes things cool down in the middle of the deadly desert. Rocks actually make things hotter (well, depending on the color of the rock :P). So it makes perfect sense that they changed it. And my 70 mining? I got that all by just mining when I needed to. Yep, 70 mining after 5 1/2 years starting in RSC. But back on topic, so now you buy a lot of waterskins and wear desert clothes, camulet telly to the temple, go to granite mine, have a dueling ring equipped, have a row or two of full waterskins, and you can be there for like an hour. Then ring telly, pull out more waterskins, camulet telly back and repeat.

pati Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I powermine there a lot now i have to bank every 2-3 hours for about 5 mins te get new waterskins. no big deal if you ask me Computers will never be above humans because we made them.That's what monkeys used to say about us.

anonymouse_ Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Take 20-25 waterskins, desert robes, etc and you can stay for hours. You don't need more space for powermining anyways. I got 85 mining 2 years ago on iron, so I don't really care...maybe I'll get 99 mining after att :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zachcorp Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Thats ridiculous. So all the people who power mined there to 99 got a quicker shortcut then others? thats lame... *goes to the rants board on official boards* Isn't this the case with many things? How about the "PC" generation who don't actually train the stats but use Pest Control points towards it. People who live at PC to get their combat stats up. I'm glad this is one less "power" train option =D> Or at least, making it a bit more of a pain to do. I understand that many may not like my old fashioned to training approach and that's fine :wink:well actually mining is one of the few skills that got harder with rs2's release. It use to be that things in your inventory auto dropped when were full but now they don't so its a very tedious skill. This just makes it more tedious. The skill is almost dead so why make it more dead? ha yes, the good old days of powermining coal got my mining up to 60 like that =) Knitting. At level 1, you can make fuzzy mittens. At level 50, fuzzy rainbow sweaters. At level 99? Fuzzy pink toe socks. Oh yeah. 'Scaper since 2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaioke Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Here is just a suggestion: Take 12 Waterskins(4) and 2 Buckets, a Bucket with Ugthanki Dung in it, along with your Camulet and your Pickaxe. When you're low on waterskins, rub your camulet, and go to the part where the fountain is and use your buckets on the fountain and refill your waterskins, then just leave the "maze".

Or, just take your pickaxe and camulet. Mine till you die (as you're not wanting to keep the granite anyway). tele back with camulet and repeat.

Really good! yup, the idea is that you only click once, (as you can prepare a right click and hover over "drop granite") and lose virtually no precious time as opposed to dropping all at the end which not only is annoying but wastes time. Originially thought of this as an alternative to hireing a granite dropper and it seems to be usefull in this situation where you can't have a full inventory. 76th to reach 99 Construction on 6th of February 2007379th to reach 99 Runecrafting on 4th of November 2007 Finally the secrets of goal achieving are revealed!

Jirka333 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Ok, for those people who are saying that it's more realistic to have to drink in the desert and that it makes sense that the mine should have it too, you need to realize that Runescape is just a game. Your character won't die if he doesn't eat (unless you're injured, which doesn't really make sense either), he doesn't have to go to the bathroom, and he "respawns" when he dies. (same with monsters) Now imagine if all of these things actually were in Runescape. And besides, why does skill training have to be so dang hard? Jagex never probably intended for powerskilling anyways, but otherwise it takes impossible lengths of time. Some people can't be on 5 hours a day. (I for instance, have been palying for over 2 years now, but I got level 50 in a skill for the first time just over a month ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanthorn Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Can anyone tell me what the "Camulet" is and what it does? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake_Corsair Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Can anyone tell me what the "Camulet" is and what it does? It's an amulet you get from the Enhraka's Lament quest. It has 4 teleport charges and teleports you to the temple right enderneath the granite mining spot in the desert. It's recharged by using it in a bucket of camel dung.
