Runescape - fun RPG

Runescape is a fun game that I got addicted to when I was a low lvl. Unfortunately I was a nonmember disabling me to do man things. There were man updates to this game and it has changed alot. The graphics changed from 2.5 D to 3d with ugly demons and now everythings almost okay. Plus new graphics are coming. "December 10th, 2008 the day ruinescape died." People say this because wildy pking has been removed and now there is clan wars, duel arena, and bounty hunter to pay instead. Bounty hunter has never been to good because you are automatically lowering the fun in runescape which has now gotten boring. I am not offending RuneScape because some updates were useful.

Who's with me! All people members and nonmembers should get the same rights! XD peace out dudes and thanks for reading this imformative and long comment of my pitful account.

I have recently been playing runescape ALOT. I am very addicted to it as I am a member and their are lots of fun skills. But then theirs the annoying thing about runescape... The fancy level 100's with their whips. Why can't we be like them?? It just takes so long that people give up. DON'T. You can still enjoy runescape without having the best weapons/armour/levels! So, about moneymaking tips : I found a good way of money making for low level's who are non member is mining copper ore which sells for around 50gp each in the Grand Exchange!! Another way when you are higher combat (Such as 10-20) is killing cows in the cow field near lumbridge. They drop cowhides which sell for around 100gp each! I hope you like these ways of money making.

Member ways of money making : Good ways of member money making are in lumbridge swamp. What is valuable in a swamp? You may ask. Well, swamp tar. It sells for a massive 200gp each, and the brilliant thing is that you pick it straight off the floor! Another way is Woodcutting/Fletching. Now, this is OK, but only if you can bare getting to 65 in both of these skills, and then getting 55 Magic. The way of fletching is cutting Yew Logs (Their is a good place near seers village which has a close by bank.) untill you have around 1000 (1K) and then get a knife, and use it on the logs and select to make Yew Longbows. Select the number you wish to make (In this case 27, as your knife takes up 1 slot so it is not a full 28 slot inventory) and your player will start cutting. Do this untill you have cut all your logs. Then, you will need 10 crafting. Go directly backwards from the bank untill you reach a field, go inside it and pick the 'Flax'. You will need as many of these as you have logs, because you will be using these at a crafting wheel to make Bowstrings, wich you will then use on your bows to make Yew Longbows. Before you string your bows, they will be called Yew Longbows (you). I hope you enjoy my money making tips, as I have put much effort into typing all this out.. And by now I must have lost atleast 3000 experience in some skill.

If anyone does actually play Runescape, then they might be interested in something I wrote up a while back while playing it.

Runescape Times
---------------------

I didn't originally intend this to go public, but yesterday evening I found a stash of Runescape time records in Opera Notes. I decided that they could be quite useful if anyone was interested in the fastest way to make money on Runescape. The way I'd left it in Notes was unorganized (and had no conclusion!), so I went ahead and edited things a bit to make it cleaner.

I went ahead and timed a number of tasks that supposedly brought in money. Note that many of the Grand Exchange prices on these items will be outdated due to market fluctuations, so check before you balk at the net profits (Kebab prices are crazy, for instance. Why they don't go down is beyond me...).

From what I've noticed, the rune collection area in Dark Warrior's Castle (wilderness) is both the best place to train magic and make money. I trained magic with fire bolt spells only (as it is the fastest way to do so), and ended up with numerous runes for sale. A thousand or so of any rune can fetch somewhere from 9K to 10K worth. So a trip to the Dark Warrior's Castle can bring back at least (>9000)*(7 total types-1 fire-1 chaos) = a profit greater than 45000 coins. Now obviously, if you don't cast fire bolt, you'll bring back a lot of chaos runes which sell quickly at hefty prices. So, YMMV.

Buying Kebabs in Al-Kharid (full inventory or 28 kebabs)
----

Trial Time in (min) (sec)
--------------------------------------------------
1 3:00 180
2 2:37 157
3 2:46 166
--------------------------------------------------
Average: 2:48 167.67

Bought for: 1 coin
GE price: 46 coins
Net profit: 45 coins.

Notes: I quit due to sporadic demand and slow selling.

Buying Pizza Bases in the Wilderness
----

Bought for: 4 coins
GE price: 53 coins
Net profit: 49 coins

Quite profitable, but quite dangerous too. Revenants are everywhere.

Getting Anti-dragon shields in Lumbridge Castle
----

Time it takes to get the dragon shields:

Trial # of shields Time in (sec) (min) Time per Shield (s)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1 18 167 2:47 9.28
2 25 210 3:30 8.40
3 22 175 2:55 7.95
4 22 175 2:55 7.95
5 22 185 3:05 8.41
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Average: 8.398

Time it takes to deposit in bank:

Trial Time (s) Round Trip (s)
-------------------------------------
1 22 44
2 21 42
3 18 36
4 20 40
5 21 42
-------------------------------------
Average: 20.4 40.8

So, to make g amount of gold, it takes (g/233)*8.395 seconds or (g/233)*8.395/60 minutes.

Gold per second: 27.7447 coins/sec

Note: The above does NOT take into account the amount of time spent going to and from the bank, as the amount of shields I get per round varied. I should probably do a retrial with a constant number of shields, but I'm far too lazy.

GE price = net profit = 233 coins (lowest price)

In conclusion: Why do people buy these things?!

This so far is incomplete...I might edit this as I experiment. (Highly unlikely though, given my current opinion of the game.)

I haven't played for a while, but it's a pretty fun game.

Last I checked, I was level 50. I had another account with level 50 fishing, so I used that to make some money. I only got on for the last few holiday events.
