Runescape Tips

PvP is coming back

2008-08-25T01:11:00.000-07:00

Hey guys, i was browsing the runescape news the other day and was shocked to find that PvP would be back, with no limits! Ill give a detailed explanation about how PvP can exist without RWT.

This update consists of "unique PvP worlds". In Runescape Classic, people could kill and hunt down other people anywhere on the map, and this is whats going to happen again. We are going old school. The PvP worlds will include:

--Optional sign-up – choose between PvP danger or stick to ordinary play by simply switching worlds.

--High danger with items dropped on death.

--High rewards for kills. To avoid any RWT issues the reward for a successful PK will be generated by the game, similar to when you kill a monster at the moment. We're creating generous drop tables based on factors like your levels and the impressiveness of the kill.

--These drop tables will include "PvP world specific" items like XP-modifying gear, lvl 70+ equipment and new, glorious, short-term but hard hitting gear. These will once again make

PKing a viable source of income.

--PvP across 99% of the world, including the old Wilderness.

--Attack any player within a certain level of your own. Level range depends on the area, similar to the old Wilderness levels.

--...And all sorts of other twists on interesting content... Just think of the possibilities when you can PK anywhere!

Yes think of the possibilities! But we sure hope that "generous" doesnt mean 50k per kill:(. I hope its all well done and PKers are happy with this. But it all sounds so exciting. Rewards include "PvP world specific items" which means we wont get normal drops like abyssal whip, dds, archer helm etc. Which is bad in my opinion.

The only people who will buy these drops will be the PKers. So i only see the demand of these drops going down as the hype of PKing will go down and less people will PK.

But never the less, i hope this is a good update and Jagex doesnt make mistakes.

Runescape Autominer

Hey guys, i decided to write an article about runescape cheating and runescape hacks. Lets start with a little bit of history:

Runescape cheating and hacks started when a guy named kaitneiks. He and xx jut xx created a program called AutoRune. This was the first runescape bot. It was the first breakthrough in auto commanding a runescape character. Then in 2003 they all got banned and autorune got disabled because runescape changed some stuff.

Later SCAR was released. It was a color clicker. Then a new version of autorune was released. Sixfeetunder discovered that it could be used to dupe! Many partyhats etc were duped and the economy suffered.After duping lots and lots of things were tried out with AutoRune. The most significant being:
- you could cast spells without runes and without a target enabling incredibly fast leveling
- you could create women with beards- you could attack and kill yourself in wilderness
- you could create a character without body (it still was showing up in minimap and when mouse was moved over)
There were more, but these were the main ones.

Now a new bot has risen...the best bot since Aryan! This bot is called RSbot. Its new and very good. Its a bot which you can load with scripts and it can perform alot of usefull stuff. Currently it has autominer, autofisher, autowoodcutter. But you can put any kind of script in it, so there are scripts like walker, which walks from point A to poin t B. You have auto fighthers. Flax collectors, ingredient collectors, random solvers. Its very flexible and plain AWESOME.

Leave a comment or contact me so i can direct you to it. Its NO way a key logger or virus. Its a client too and there are hundreds of people using it. I seriously recomend using it if you are into botting.

Found some other autominers, use at your own risk: http://runescapeautominer.org/ http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=28984

Shifting from p2p to f2p

2008-06-21T06:42:00.000-07:00

Introduction
This guide will explain how to go from members to F2P and never have to worry about the limited F2P bank space even if your bank is full of members items, or even junk items. You all know that member's bank holds way more items than free players. In the event that you need to go F2P for a while, for whatever reason (credit card declined, changing banks, parents denied, less time to play, etc), here is a great way to still enjoy the game with the severely limited bank space.

The Problem
Most people try to deal with this problem by trying to sell off their member items. You see it all the time, huge "Quitting Members" sales in the forums, in a desperate attempt to clear their bank down while trying to at least get some money for all the stuff they own. The sad reality is, usually if theyve already cancelled, their time is limited and it means they are desperate to get rid of the items. At the last minute "everything must go" regardless how low the offers are, because if they dont sell, they have to give it away or sell to shops or just drop them. With this method, even if you barely get your bank size down to the f2p allotment, youre probably facing a huge loss.

The Solution
The better option to me is to store multiple amounts of all the items you will be using during your time in F2P. This way, you overcome the bank space problem, and you can actually store more f2p items than the designated 60 spots.

How it Works
The key is to always leave at least 1 of the item in the bank to hold the space, so that you can deposit the item again when you want to. F2P items are usually much cheaper in general than member items, the most expensive probably being rune armor and weapons, but coming from members, money making options are plentiful, and the cost is nothing compared to the loss you could face from a bank sale going wrong. Not only that, in the event you resubscribe to members, you can always sell the extra rune sets back to recover the cost The next tip is to sort your bank so that your f2p items are near the top, and your member items are to the bottom. You never need to scroll down, since everything you need is on your first 1-2 pages. You can just completely forget about the lower part of your bank, since you dont want to take out anything there that you cant use and cant put back Finally, DONT USE "WITHDRAW ALL"!!!!! particularly for stackable items like your gp, runes or arrows, and for nothing items. Be very careful to make sure and select withdraw X and make sure you are not entering a bigger quantity than what you have in your bank. Once you withdraw all of any item, you CANNOT PUT IT BACK In the event that you accidentally withdraw all of an item, you might need to get a "trusted friend" account to transfer the item to. But it really is an inconvenience unless you can get the "friend" online and where you are when you need the item. It's not a situation you want to be in, but its better than walking around with all of an item and wasting inventory space, or worse, dying and losing it all.

NEW EDIT Strategy for Setting up your Bank
This is the step-by-step game plan for your month of membership that you will want to follow to make the most out of this technique. It will actually require you to change your game a bit, but its a simple matter of thinking a bit differently than you normally do, and the rewards is more than worth the trouble. 1st: You might want to print out the checklist at the bottom of this guide. All items that you think youll need to store or use in f2p, check them off. Add any extrs items that i dont have (like lower level armor, new items since the update, etc). Then, while in members, start loading up your bank with at least 1 of each of these items that you would like to have stored when you get back to f2p. Remember that members bank has 3nearly 400 spots, so feel free to load up junk tools and anything at all. I mean TOTALLY store everything, even ashes and burnt food, even worthless junk items. 2nd: During your month in members, take the time to organize your bank in a neat and efficient way, with related items grouped together. Make sure you are satisfied with the way your bank looks, and you know where everything is. Now get in the habit of making sure that at least one of the items you need remains in the bank, to always maintain the layout youve set up. For example, if youre making arrows in members, and you cut 1k logs and you have 15k feathers, leave back some logs and feathers in the bank, even if its just one log and 15 feathers. You dont have to fletch them all. The habit of preserving your bank layout will be worth much more than those 15 arrows. in fact, i would advise you leave more, or chop an uneven number just to make sure youre not tempted to use them up 3rd: Realise that there are 2 types of items: tools and materials. I classify tools as anything you use one of, and put back when youre done. so things like armor, robes, weapons, and actual tools, fall into this category. Materials are any items that are consumed during training, like arrows, runes, food, wood, ores, and so on. Generally, its a good idea to have at least 3 of all "tool" items in the bank, and about 40-50 "material" items. right now i have a number of iron, steel and mith plates in my bank for high alching. because of what i use them for (mage training), these are material items in my context. If youre a pker, or tend to lose certain items often, then of course youll need to stock more. Also, if you find yourself left with just one of a certain item that you need to train with, OBTAIN ANOTHER ONE FIRST, or better yet get a few. Its actually better for you if you dont train that particular skill to keep your bank layout and number of spots set up the way it was. Even before you cancel your membership, start getting in the habit of playing this way. Play and train as if you already cant store items, or cant withdraw all. Not only will you be hugely advantaged by having LOTS of items in your bank, but youll also be very organized and efficient, and youll find things in your bank super easy. Even if you do decide later on to go back to members, you wont break your habit of keeping your layout set up the way it is.
BONUS Duplicating Quest and Special Items Credit to DragnFly for this section:

Amulet of accuracy - Only method of obtaining additional amulets is thru trades with other players, or if you happen to get lucky enough to find one someone sold to general store/dropped. Tradable.
Anti-Dragon breath shield - Withdraw if you have. Head upstairs in lumbridge castle, drop and talk to the duke of lumbridge to obtain another, repeating as necessary for desired quantity and pick them up. Also, the duke doesn't notice shields in banknote form, so they can be withdrew as note form without having to be dropped.
Blurite Ore - No limits, just simply head down to the ice cave and mine as much as desired.
Blurite Sword - Currently not obtainable again after quest. During the quest, mine as many blurite ores as you need, with twice the number of iron bars as ores. Ask Thurgo to make you a sword, then drop it and ask again until he's made all the swords you need. Then pick up all the swords and head back to the White Knights Castle to finish the quest. Before you talk to the squire, drop all the swords on the ground except one. The squire will take that from your inventory and reward you for completing the quest. Then pick up the other swords.
Easter Ring - Withdraw your ring and go to Diango in draynor. Drop your ring and talk to him, asking for another ring. Repeat as desired, then pick all up.
Ghostspeak amulet - Make sure you have none in bank, if you do withdraw it and head towards the hut in the back of lumbridge swamp. Once you arrive there, drop it and talk to father urhney to obtain another, repeating as necessary for as many as you would like, then pick up the rest.
Maze key - You can stock up on these only for that part of the dragon slayer quest. After the part of the quest where you the map piece, you cant get any additional keys. When you ask Oziach for a key to the maze the first time, simply drop it and ask him again until you have enough, then pick them all up.
Silverlight - Before killing Derlith, drop the first sword you get and talk to Sir Prysin to buy another, repeat for desired quantity then pick them up.

Amulets of Defense

All types of molds
Balls of String

Tiaras

Runecrafting

Misc... - Some extra stuff to bank not really in a particular category.
Gold Pieces (duh!! lol)

Strength Potions
Brass Keys
Full Mith (for smithing, selling, running thru wildy)

Feathers
Ropes
Spades
Knives
Chocolate (Bars and Dust)
eyes of newt
Dwarfen Stouts & Wizard Mind Bombs
Buckets
Pots
Silk
Steel nails
Planks

Conclusion Go through the checklist and make sure that you have doubled up on everything i have listed here. Modify it to suit your skill levels and skills you are working on. Believe me, this way you can spend way more time in F2P without worrying about the items you've lost, and you can rejoin members when you want to (most do) but you are not pressured into rejoining because as a free player you'll have everything you need. Remember that this doesnt guarantee anything. New updates in the game usually means new items. Also bear in mind that Halloween, Christmas and Easter usually means new items that might be impossible to store or duplicate. Also, theres always the possibility that you might accidentally withdraw something youre not supposed to. But thats totally unavoidable, so take this as a disclaimer. Enjoy!

Hey guys

2008-06-21T02:47:00.000-07:00

In my first post, i will explain some ways for free players and members to make very quick cash!
Lets start off with free players:

1. Members need many second ingrediants for herblore and they are available in the free world. These include red spider eggs. A good way to make money is to collect red spider eggs from varrock sewers. You should start at East Varrock bank and head to the sewers and go to the red spiders. Collect an inventory of eggs, tele to varrock, bank and repeat. This can make 50k+ an hour.

2. A better way to make money is to turn clay into soft clay. This needs money to start as you have to buy the clay(or you could mine it yourself). You should do this at Falador West bank. Withdraw 14 buckets and 14 clay. Go to the tap infront of the bank and fill the buckets. Use the buckets with the clay. Fill the bucket again with water. Go to bank, store soft clay, withdraw 14 more clay, soften them using the waterfilled buckets and store the soft clay. You just made 28 clay. Repeat and you will get 80k+ an hour.

3. An even better method is to tan cowhides. Members and non-members too need leather for crafting. What you do is buy cowhides, tan them into soft leather at Al-Kharid and sell them. Bank at the Al-Kharid bank. I have tried this and it makes 100k+ an hour. Gurantee!

Now for members:

1.There are alot of ways to make money for members and it includes collecting raw materials or second ingrediants. The first method is to pick flax south of seers village and bank it in seers bank. This makes good money.

2. Another method is to collect snape grass. You can collect snape grass at the peninsula left of the crafting guild south of Falador. This makes about 150k+ an hour. If you have completed the Fremminik Trials quest and started the Fremminik Isles quest, you can collect snape grass at WaterBirth Island. You start at Miscellania and travel to WaterBirth Island and collect snape grass. Then bank back at Miscellania. This method makes GREAT money. I use this method and make 300k+ an hour.

Thats it for now. Ill add more tips later.
