Real Money Outside The Runescape World

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=


Accounts and items have certain values for most players in Runescape. Just like other online games where items collected and trained with high skill would have monetary value of which people would really pay for them. While some people would call this crazy, it only goes to show how addicting and attached Runescape players are with regards to the importance of acquiring rare and special items and also the established skills by most people for their investment as far as logging such accounts online.



Runescape administrators warn players on these kinds of practices and actually make efforts to prohibit from making Runescape a profit generating scheme for people who can spare time to raise skills and patiently go around the world and participate in special events such as Runescape quests to garner such specialized items and stuff. Despite such prohibitions, players still go and proceed with offering real money for such accounts and items. Of course the receiving players would be all smiles and may even make a living out of it by creating another account, investing time on it, and raising the skill levels. There are people who are particularly interested about skills only since this is the hard part when leveling is concerned.



Overall, there is really nothing illegal with such transactions. Runescape autoers and toolkits may be used, but all the same, it is how a player is able raise his level that matters and this becomes the valuable point when purchasing an account is concerned. Items can be done in game, but some people prefer the real value of money over them rather than the usual gold in Runescape. While it is a fact that gold is an essential necessity in Runescape, some are wise enough to con players into buying items outside the game. To date, such transactions are really being done and honestly, there is nothing illegal about them.



Everything boils down on how a player is attached to the game. Items with special tags are rare items that anyone would die for. Besides, it cannot be discounted that some people are just simply after being the first and among the elite people to have rare items or be among the first to gain possession to them. Such is a practice the even extend to the real world, something that has no clear explanation outside that of having them above all.



Valuing the game is okay, but to go as far as shelling out real cash for them is another thing. This depends on the player behind the keyboard and the mouse. Some can really afford to shell out the said money while some are just being conned into believing that it is the only way to gain possession of such.



So if you wanna buy Runescape Gold or Runescape Powerleveling, Please Go to Usfine.com.

Relying On The Runescape Mini Map For Navigation

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=



Most Runescape players may be wondering, what is that little thing at the upper right corner where icons and some trees over a green area are? Well, this is the Runescape client mini map that helps people see where they are exactly. The icons shown stand for something to identify the place. Like bows would represent archery equipment such as bow and arrows, bank icons are where a player can deposit his collected items in the game and so on. They are guides to which a player can check out at any time during the game. Actually a player can use the mini map in the Runescape client as his point of destination compass. He can simply right click and wait for a red flag to appear. The red flag represents where the player is going in the area.


A Runescape player can use up to a 360-degree angle to visualize and see where he can go. This helps especially for Runescape players who are cautious of the possible dangers that the game has in front or behind them. With so much players and NPC’s lurking around, a player can never be too careful since attacks of any sort may occur at any point of the game.


Navigating through the mini map console may be better, although most Runescape players would prefer to have one that would be bigger. While some would not care, a bigger view would help identify the icons better, especially those with poor eyesight and who would want a bigger coverage of the area they are in. Also, for the people who are not used to a rotating angle view, tendency is that they will eventually become dizzy and may take a breather or worse, quit playing. These are only some of the scenarios in the game and mostly depend on the type of players who patronize and get hooked on Runescape.


Prior to log in, a player would find different kinds of worlds to play in. There are two actually, one in the member’s world and the other on the free server world. The member’s world would naturally be for the ones who pay the monthly fee of $5.00 to enjoy the game more completely without restrictions. Of the two, expect the free servers to be packed with new players or people who are content by merely living in the freebie world.


$5.00 is not much and a good rate for subscription to a good game as Runescape. But for some, just like in anything, value for their money is a consideration and for an online game, it would usually carry with it free membership. But let us face it, if people want a well-maintained server, certain fees such as maintenance and hosting expense need to be settled, and with minimum subscription fees as this will go a long way.

Would You Bite A Runescape Clan Invitation?

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=



To date, there have been a lot of Runescape clans that have been formed, and among the needs for a Runescape clan to be successful is that of numbers with regards to players affiliated with them. While there are people who would search for good Runescape clans to join in, a simple search query on Runescape or Runescape clans would return quite a number of groups looking for members who would join their fraternity.


In such cases, the dilemma that faces most people would be on how to properly evaluate the right Runescape clan to join. For one, Runescape players will certainly be geared more on clans that have large numbers, since it is usually automatic to note that smaller clans may eventually be dissolved or disband. Second, the important thing to note is the validity with regards to player members who may be just conning people into joining their group for a purpose. Organizing Runescape clans or groups is not an easy task, hence the more harder it is to recruit players into the order since not all people will be able to see each other that easily in this wide world of Runescape.


Authentication and validity of the Runescape clans formed are hard to determine. Members can be considered fictitious in a way and a player may end up joining a wrong group instead of the readily established ones that are spread all over the Runescape world. To date, there are really no dominantly known clans or guilds to which players can join. One reason for this is perhaps most players are busy playing and exploring the world of Runescape, a wide area that may take up the time for now rather than plan and become affiliated with certain groups for security and identity.


For the beginners, affiliations with such Runescape clans cannot be immediately appreciated. The fact that once a player logs on, the Runescape population is quite severe that finding co-members in a clan is like looking for a needle in a haystack. This is how populated and somewhat congested Runescape has become and it is not hard to figure out why this has become such. With online gaming becoming more and more demanded by people who use the web, Runescape has become among the top online games that people have chosen above the rest.


Such a choice is perhaps due to the fact that Runescape has become a virtual world timed in the medieval years where the struggle for power is one of the essential goals of most players. It is not merely about dominance of slayers and magicians, but also a matter of becoming resourceful and wise towards the basic needs that a Runescape player would need to consider to enjoy the game as a whole.

Utilizing The Bank In The Runescape World

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=



In Runescape, there will come a point where the importance of banking and storing items instead of leaving them on your inventory backpack will be appreciated. The bank box is usually provided in areas where the icons are indicated so that a player may make a withdrawal or deposit in terms of gold and items on hand. The bank is the safest place to store items which may evidently get lost should a player be killed anywhere in the world of Runescape.


There are players who do not value the presence of a bank account box assigned to them. For one, beginners will have a hard time finding out where the nearest banking place would be in Runescape as they are usually going around in most places, looking for adventure and things to do. Exploring the world in the early parts of the game and interacting and checking out places and the other characters would be among the immediate tasks that people would usually be tasked to do.


Once a player dies, most items would be lost. Resources, weapons and other acquired items through purchases or trade would be lost in such instances since they go with the dead body of the player wherever they may be. After being killed in the game however, a player is restored to a starting point like towns where he will have to re-purchase the lost items and collect again most of the items he lost.


The matter of security is also another issue for accounts when bank accounts are accessed. This is why it has been spread that no player should reveal his username and password to players or fake administrators who try to teach them some in-game techniques and secrets, much of which are scams. Such a practice is rampant in Runescape, and hence the continuous reminders by Runescape and its administrators to be aware of such pranks which could be done to them at any time.


It is recommended to store the special items that will not be of use to a player in their banks. Losing them may be something that a player would regret and dampen morale and spirits when playing the game. Such would only be natural considering that saving all items for the proper moment in the game will be lost once players fail to realize the value of such.


Such issues have their own impact on the players. Some would evidently just leave these items in their bank accounts, while for others, it is better to use them than not to have used them at all. For the latter, the risk is higher since he would not know what lies ahead on his journey. Whatever the case, it would all depend on how valuable such items would be and their use as well when it comes to storing them in the bank box or just having them handy in their inventory pack in Runescape.

RuneScape Rules & In Game Reporting

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=

==>RuneScape Tips List<==



Rule 1: Offensive Language


What is offensive language? It is a form of language which others find insulting or obscene. The reason that there is this rule is to maintain a friendly community within Runescape. It is important to have such a rule, as it protects the players from insults from others, especially when the insult is inappropriate for a particular age of players.


Here is a list of scenarios that is considered to be under Offensive Language Category:


Swearing, flaming another player (by bypassing the censor)

Heavy flooding of the chat window with unnecessary or gibberish messages

Harassing a player with sexual remarks

Racist messages

Threatening messages (such as threatening to hack or scam an innocent player)

Offensive names

Any other inappropriate messages

So if you see anyone doing that, report them under the above rule.


FAQs


Someone called me a noob! Is that offensive language?


Nope, as what the rules stated, “noob” is not an offensive word. If you are annoyed because the player called you a noob, it’s best to add the player to ignore rather than confronting him.


There are two players who are swearing at each other! What should I do?


In a case where both players are being extremely vulgar, you should report them both under rule 1. But if you know who was the starter of the flame war, you should only report the starter. Then add both of them to ignore and move on. It is best not to say “Reported” as it can worsen the situation and cause the players to flame at you instead.


There could be another scenario, where the two players are friends. They might just be joking among themselves with vulgar language. In such a case, you do not have to worry, as long as they are not affecting players around them. But if you find that their remarks are leading to a flame war, you should report them under rule 1. Before reporting, it is best to advise the two players to talk to each other in private chat, and only report when they refuse to.


A player is swearing but it is censored, should I count it as offensive?


Since it’s censored, the filter has done its job and the language is no longer offensive – which means no report. Just move on and ignore the player. Only report when the player bypasses the censor to swear.


A player said “****, I died again!! Wat the hell! Stupid ****ing randoms!!”, what should I do?


In such a case, it is not offensive as the player is just letting out his frustrations. Even though the language may not be appropriate, but as long as he isn’t directing it at anyone, you should just let him be. If you don’t want to hear it from him, add him to ignore instead.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 2: Item Scamming


What is item scamming? It is to deceive another player and cause them to lose their valuables as a result. This rule is extremely important, and protects players from losing their hard earned valuables.


Here is a list of scenarios that is considered to be under Item Scamming Category:


Offering an item and then changing it at the last second (or item switching)

Offering to trim an item or upgrade an item

Claiming an unrare item rare

Trust games (or truth game), test or trades

Offering to duplicate an item

Claiming to be from Jagex and asks for an item

Team scamming

Luring players into the wilderness under pretence

If anyone is doing the above, it is best to report them for the above rule.


FAQs


A player just said “Follow to win 1mill!!!”, what should I do?


These instances usually turn out to be trust tests or games, so it is most likely an item scam. You may follow the player, and if the player plays the “trust game”, you should report the player under rule 2.


A player claimed to hold a drop party, but he didn’t drop anything! Is that an item scam?


Nope, since he didn’t cause any players to lose any items, it is not an item scam.


A player is seen selling a weird item for 50k, and another player is buying it for 1000k. What should I do?


This is probably a team scam. You should report both players to Jagex for item scamming.


A player is seen selling a weird item for 50k, is there anything I should do?


A player can ask any price they like so long as they don’t lie about it. Remember, you can check the Forums or a fan site to make sure you don’t pay too much for an item.


A player lured me into the wilderness, is that item scamming?


Due to the update of rule 2, luring players into the wilderness by pretending they are not *is* reportable. However, you must be sure that the player is indeed “tricking” you without you knowing.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 3: Password Scamming


What is password scamming? It is a scam whereby players are tricked or persuaded into giving away their passwords of their accounts. This rule is crucial for making sure that each and every account is secure.


Here is a list of scenarios that is considered under password scamming:


Claiming that Jagex blocks passwords (they don’t block passwords)

Selling free membership (the scammer will ultimately ask for your password)

Claiming to be from Jagex and asks for password

Asking for Bank PINs

Asking questions related to your recovery questions (when you give them the answers, you are risking your account)

If you find anyone doing the above, report them for the above rule.


FAQs


A player keeps saying the word “pass”, is it considered password scamming?


Nope, it is not. There is no evidence that the player is asking for anyone’s password, so it is not considered password scamming.


A group of players are discussing about password, what should I do?


They are not breaking rule 3 by discussing passwords, as they are not trying to steal anyone’s password.


There is a player, who is saying, “Buying free membership”, what should I do?


Even though it is not considered password scamming, it *is* against the rules of conduct. Report that player under “Encouraging others to break rules” instead.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 4: Cheating/Bug Abuse


What is bug abuse? It is when a player uses an error in game to gain unfair advantage. This rule ensures that the game is fair for all players, so if you find any bugs in game, please send a bug report to Jagex by clicking on “report a bug/fault” on main page. Please do not tell anyone about the bug and not use it again until Jagex has fixed it.


As it is hard to gather evidence of bug abuse in game, the only time you can know is when a player *admits* to bug abuse. If you see anyone admitting to bug abuse, send a query to Jagex, informing them of the details.


FAQs


A player is harassing me in game, is that bug abuse?


No, it is not. If anyone is harassing you in game, add them to ignore. If the player is using extremely vulgar and offensive language, report them under rule 1.


A player is telling everyone about a bug and asking them to try it! What should I do?


In such a case, it is best to report him under “encouraging others to break rules”, since the player is encouraging others to do something against the rules.


A player is discussing a bug, is that bug abuse?


Nope, discussing a bug is not against the rules, as long as the player is not using it or encouraging others to use it.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 5: Jagex Staff Impersonation


What is Jagex Staff Impersonation? It is when a player impersonates a Jagex Staff when they are not. All Jagex Staff have a gold crown when they talk in game, so you should know if the player is a staff member or not. This rule is important as it prevents them from being tricked by players who attempts to scam them by impersonating a staff.


Here are some scenarios where it is considered to be under Jagex Staff Impersonation:


Claiming to be Jagex and asks for your items or password (report under either item scamming or password scamming)

Player’s name impersonating a Jagex Staff

Claiming to be a player moderator when they are not

Claiming to be Jagex to gain trust from a player

If anyone is doing the above, you should report them under rule 5.


FAQs


A player says that his main is a player moderator, is that staff impersonation?


Yes, even if his main is a player moderator, it is impersonation when he says that his main is a moderator on his other accounts.


A player private messages me saying that he works for Jagex and offers to make me a moderator, do you think I should believe him?


Nope, remember that Jagex Staff will only invite you to be a moderator through *online message centre*. Also, Jagex Staff has a gold crown when they speak in game (even in Private Messages), so if the player does not have the crown, report him under rule 5.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 6: Account Sharing/Trading


What is account sharing or trading? It is when a player shares an account with another player, or when a player sells an account in game. This rule is there to protect each and every account and to make sure that no player is encouraging other players to trade or share accounts.


If you see anyone admitting to sharing/trading accounts in game, report them under this rule. Anyone who offers to give away their accounts for free or sells their account should also be reported under this rule.


FAQs


Is sharing an account with a close friend or family member allowed?


No, account sharing with anyone is not allowed, even if it was with someone you trust.


A player is saying “Selling membership account for 300k”, is that considered pass scamming?


No, since the player mentioned “account”, most likely the player is selling the account, not the membership. Report the player under rule 6 instead.


I see a player selling an account on another site, what should I do?


You should report the site to Jagex through a query. In your query, include the link to that site so that Jagex can investigate the issue.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 7: Using Third Party Software/Macroing


What is macroing? Macroing is the use of third party software that gives players an unfair advantage over other honest players. It is important that this rule is present as it discourages players from using third party software, which often contain keyloggers that steal their account passwords.


Here are some scenarios where it is considered macroing:


Auto programs that helps you in training your skills

Auto programs that speed up typing

Programs that modify or replace Runescape client

Programs that displays pages from Runescape website and provides specific features like worldswitching

If you see anyone using the above programs, report them under this rule.


FAQs


There are just so many macroers! Does Jagex even care about them?


Yes, Jagex does deal with them. Jagex has conducted mass banning of macroers before, if you have read the news archive. Just because they are not posting such news again does not mean they are not banning them anymore. It is just that they need time to look at the evidence properly before going on to take action against them.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 8: Multiple Log In


What is multiple log in? It is when a player logs onto multiple accounts at the same time, and these characters interact with each other. This rule is there to ensure that the game is fair and that newly created accounts would not have an advantage over other players of the same combat level just because these new accounts have a main with more powerful weapons.


Here are some scenarios where it is considered multiple log in:


Transferring of items from one account to another account (when both accounts belong to one player)

Drop trading

Giving an item to a friend and then taking it back from another account

If you see anyone doing the above, report them under the above rule.


FAQs


I saw a group of macroers with similar names; I think they belong to the same player. What do I do?


The best thing to do is to report them all for macroing and send Jagex a query explaining the situation and whom you believe is the player in charge.


A player is promoting third party software and giving a link to it! What should I do?


In this case, report the player under rule 11. If you can, find a player moderator who would be able to deal with the situation better. You can also report the player under rule 9, as he is encouraging others to break the rules.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 9: Encouraging Others To Break Rules


What is encouraging others to break rules? It is to persuade another player into doing something against any of the 15 rules and telling them it is alright to do so. This rule is there to make sure that players are not confused about the rules and to remove those players who encourage others to ruin the game with them.


Here are some scenarios which are considered encouraging rule-breaking:


Lying about what a rule means and trying to convince others that the rule means otherwise

Encouraging others to use a bug in game

Trying to force a player into breaking a rule by temptation

Admits to using a third party software (reporting it under macroing would not work)

Admits to breaking the rules of conduct

If you see anyone doing the above, report them by all means under the above rule.


FAQs


A player said “Hehe, go and scam that noob, nah jk.”, do I consider it to be encouraging rule breaking?


It really depends on your judgment, if the player is joking about it, perhaps you can just let it go. However, if the player really caused others to break the rules, you should perhaps send a query to Jagex explaining the situation. Remember to include all the players that are involved in it. At the same time, report the rule-breaker (the player that went on to break the rules) under the correct rule. (Remember that you need evidence to report any rule-breaking)


A player floods the chat screen with messages like “I’m using an autotyper, it’s great! Try it!”, should I report the player under rule 9 or rule 1?


It would be better if you report the player under rule 9, since it is encouraging rule breaking. If possible, call a player moderator to help to deal with the situation. (Remember that not all player moderators are free to help, report the offence yourself and only call for them when the situation worsens)


——————————————————————————–


Rule 10: False Representation/Misuse Of Customer Support


What is misuse of customer support? It involves reporting an innocent player, sending in useless queries to Jagex, lying to Jagex about certain information and abusing Jagex Staff. This rule is important so that Jagex can process the reports and queries as fast as possible, and ensure that players who really need assistance receives the support they need.


Here are some scenarios where it is considered to be misuse of customer support:


Using abusive language towards Jagex in game

Admitting to misuse of customer support (this will not happen most of the times, so be sure that there is enough evidence before reporting)

Threatening to report innocent players

If you see anyone doing the above, report them under this rule.


FAQs


A player says that he is going to report a player who called him a noob. Should I report him for misuse of customer support?


Not all players have read the knowledge base, so they would not know that the word “noob” is not reportable. Perhaps you can tell him that it is not reportable, and ask him to add the player to ignore.


A player is saying “Report (player name)!! He is a scammer!”, is that misuse of customer support?


No, it is not. The player is just warning everyone about the “scammer”, so no harm is done. However, you should not listen to him and proceed to report the “scammer”. As you have no evidence that the “scammer” is really scamming, it would not be wise to report him. Perhaps you can ask the player to report the “scammer” himself, and proceed on.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 11: Advertising/Website


What is advertising websites? It includes advertising websites, and also advertising any other product (such as third party programs) in game. This rule is vital as it protects the account security of all the players, and make sure that no one is directed to a site with inappropriate content.


Here are some scenarios where it is considered to be advertising websites:


Advertising a site that offers cheats and other forms of in game benefits

Advertising a site that has third party software

Asking players to go on a site to buy or sell accounts (also under encouraging rule breaking)

Admitting to advertising a site in the official forums

Advertising any other sites that are not related to Runescape

Trading other game accounts in Runescape

Advertising URL link related to messenger software

Advertising chat channels

For this rule, as long as a URL link is involved, you can report almost every instance that happens.


FAQs


A player is mentioning a fan site and directing a player to it, what should I do?


Unless a URL is mentioned, you should not report. Most official fansites are safe, so it is alright if players direct others to these help sites without mentioning a URL. However, if you are unsure about the safety of that fansite, you can proceed to report the player.


A player advertised his site on the official forums, what should I do?


In such a case, it would be best to report the thread that was breaking the rules in the “Forum Emergencies” sticky located in General Forum. Remember to read the instructions there carefully before proceeding to report.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 12: Real World Item Trading


What is real world item trading? It is the trading of items in Runescape for real world money. This rule is there to prevent players from trading accounts for the skills and items instead of earning them through game play. It is also unsafe, as many of these people may attempt to steal your money.


You will seldom be able to see it in game, but if you do see anyone doing it in game, it would be best to send in a report under this rule.


FAQs


I see a player selling an item on another site for real world money, what should I do?


You should report the site to Jagex through a query. In your query, include the link to that site so that Jagex can investigate the issue. Here is the format of the query:


A user by the name of [insert username here] was advertising a site which violated rule 12. The site advertised was [insert site name here].


Sincerely,

[your RuneScape name]

A player said, “I bought an account from ebay a week ago.” What do I do?


You can report the player under “encouraging rule breaking”.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 13: Personal Details


What is against the rule on personal details? It is to ask for or give out a person’s personal information which can be used to track down the person in real life. This rule is vital in protecting each and every one’s privacy and safety in real life.


Here are some scenarios considered to be asking for personal details:


Asking or giving out a player’s full name, telephone number, home address

Asking for or giving out player’s email address and messenger screen names

Revealing personal details in game or on the forums

If anyone is seen doing that, you can report under this rule.


FAQs


A player is asking for the age of another player, is that considered asking for personal details?


Nope, age is not personal details, reason being that there are lots of people who have the same age as you. It is impossible to track down a person in real life just by knowing the age.


Is asking for a person’s country considered asking personal details?


Nope, it is not. Often when players chat, they will ask for each other’s nationality. It is alright to do that, as it’s impossible to track down a person in real life with the above information.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 14: Misuse Of Official Forums


What is misuse of official forums? It is to post something that is against the code of conduct of the forums. This rule is necessary to maintain a friendly environment on the forums, as well as safeguard the players who use the official forums.


You will rarely come across any situations relating to this rule in game, but if you do come across it on the forums, report it in the “Forum Emergencies” thread located in the General Forum.


——————————————————————————–


Rule 15: Advert Blocking


What is advert blocking? It is when players attempt to block the advertisements on Runescape with advert-blocking software. This rule is essential for the free to play players to enjoy the free version of Runescape.


There is hardly any instances relating to this rule in game, if a player admits to breaking this rule in game, you can then report them.


FAQs


One of the advertisements is offensive, what should I do?


If you find any advertisements inappropriate, report them by clicking on “Comment on our service” on main page. Fill in the information in the advert complaint form and send it to Jagex. Jagex will reply back to you as soon as possible.


Note: Joking about any of the rules is equivalent to breaking them.


——————————————————————————–


Reporting Rule-Breakers


Firstly, click on the “Report Abuse” button on the bottom-right of the game screen. Enter the name of the rule-breaker and click on the respective rule broken. You should get a “Thank-you, your report abuse have been received” message.

Runescape Quest Guide: User Friendly Quests In Runescape

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<=

==>Runescape Quest Guide List<==

==>Runescape Story List<==



Runescape quests are one of the more diligent activities that players can participate in, other than the normal course of the game and exploring. Some would have apprehensions taking on these quests, not having the patience to take a while and think of what the actual objectives and items that are being asked, or what task to complete for the entire ordeal.


Runescape quests once interacted with the assigned NPC’s have a very detailed question and answer interface. It covers all the necessary and possible areas for consideration, making the whole interactive thing user-friendly and informative for the benefit of players who may be having trouble understanding the entire scenario. For example, a specific item that is being asked will have underlying question that would be generated as each screen of the conversation is being done. This covers all the necessary things in mind that a player may not understand. This also includes out of topic questions, a sort of humor in a way where a player who asks nonsense questions that may not even pertain to the entire quest.


User-friendliness, especially for first time players is something important. For one, not all people would easily understand how the transition of interacting and understanding the task at hand should be carried out must be done. Another thing is the fact that the quests broaden the possible questions to be asked. This eliminates the need for game administrators to have to interfere and answer queries since the NPC’s are programmed for a generalized background on the matter already.


The general expectations of game administrators with regards to the possible questions to be asked by Runescape players are a conservative approach. While some Runescape players may find it a waste of time, getting detailed information and leaving room for actually finding the items and completing the quests is all that was left uncovered. Such a method is a more alluring way of providing everything that is needed in one sitting, hence one players participate in the quests, all that is left is to properly locate the place where most of the items and special characters in the game can be found.


Again, these quests and mini-games that Runescape offers not only aim to provide more things to do, but to lessen the number of cheaters that have been known to be present in the game. Being kept busy by such activities will render a player preoccupied with such activities, thus making him focus on completing the quests rather than looking for probable Runescape cheats, codes or hacks for the game. With this in mind, such ideas would really keep players busy and eventually leave players wanting to be tagged successful Runescape quest participants rather than Runescape cheaters.


That's the last of my Runescape quest guides that I've done for this newcomer tutorial, I do hope you enjoyed reading it and found it useful. Please don't let that be the end of your journey however. Check out Killer Guide's ultimate Runescape Quest Guide. It packs a punch at over 100 pages of detailed quest walkthroughs.

Runescape Game Improvements

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<==

==>Runescape Gold Guide List<==


Ever got frustrated when you couldn’t right click and quick bank with Gundai? Ever wondered why the Monks of Entrana have memory loss and search you every time? These are but two small annoyances which have been changed as part of a collection of disparate but subtle alterations to the Runescape game - all suggested by you, the players!

In the first of our ‘Improvement Project’ updates we’ve bundled together a whole host of little additions to the game that many of you have suggested. Most of these are improvements to existing features, adding new detail or extra benefits. We have identified many more in addition to these, so there will also be a steady flow of them coming out over the coming year.

In the first batch we have additions that range from useful to humorous Runescape gold.

First up, we’ve rebalanced the crossbows to make them a really appealing option for rangers. This means that your crossbow will fire faster and hit harder. We’ve also made grapples tradeable at every stage in their construction. It was a bit odd having them untradeable as soon as you add a bit of rope. Onyx bolt tips bought from the TzHaar are also cheaper now. With all these adjustments, we feel that the crossbow is a really viable choice for the discerning ranger.

We’ve also rejigged the combat selection so now you’ll stick to the same fighting style after you log out. This means that when you log in again, you’ll automatically use your preferred style - no more defending yourself by hitting someone over the head with a staff when you have plenty of Runescape gold!

We have updated the graphics for cyclopes to make them look better than ever. Stop by and visit the Ardougne Zoo and take a look at some of the less common creatures.

Players who have completed Dream Mentor will now be able to bank items without a seal of passage on Lunar Isle. They can now speak to Bird’s Eye Jack, left click the booth directly in front of him or right click to use quick-bank. Previously, you were required to have your seal of passage on you before you could access the bank.

Players can now fill all available buckets in their inventory with slime from the ectofuntus temple just north of Port Phasmatys. This change removes the need for multiple clicking to fill each bucket individually.

We’ve been told that Gundai in the Mage Arena is not nearly as helpful as he could be, so we’ve added a ‘quick bank’ option. Similarly, the monks on Entrana have a right-click ‘quick sail’ option, which gives the monks the right to check you for the usual armour and weapons before you hop aboard their boat.

The dastardly aberrant spectres in the Slayer Tower will be getting less to eat now, as we’ve added a short warning to the spiky chain that leads to their lair. Hopefully this will save inexperienced adventurers from getting a painfully bad smell assaulting their senses (not to mention their limbs).

The glassblowing interface wasn’t pretty enough, and also a bit awkward to use, so we’ve upgraded it to make it simpler to turn molten glass into useful vials and the like.

As impressively mighty as the skeletal wyverns are, we felt their drops didn’t really reflect the challenge, so they now drop some more desirable loot.

Gloves of silence (made from the stealthy dark kebbit’s fur) can now be inspected to see how they’re going after your pickpocketing fingers have been caught a few times. You can also grab some more fur to repair damaged ones, saving you a trip to the fancy dress shop.

For the fashion-conscious among you, Patchy on Mos Le’Harmless has been given a better set of tools, so he’ll now combine a black cavalier hat with a highwayman mask, and a black beret with a mime mask. How dashing!

Finally, everyone’s favourite pet, a rock, has been made even more exciting! Now you can play fetch, tell it to stay, or even wield it.

We’ve also identified a number of bugs, which are now fixed. These include:

The infinity hat has been adjusted due to an issue with players’ hairstyles. Certain hair would occasionally appear through the hat, which looked a bit strange.

Wizard boots have been relocated in the treasure trails chest of your costume room. Up to now, players could buy Runescape money in the level 1 clue scroll section; however they are obtained from level 2 clue scrolls.

The rune helm painted with Varrock colours has had its looks adjusted. This is to help differentiate between the gilded full helm and itself. The new looks are now more befitting to such an item.

A bug was fixed to allow anyone who’s been lucky enough to find any Runescape money and catch implings to open the jars containing captured implings around the Catherby area.

There are plenty more wee additions coming up for the future, all of which are designed to make your gaming experience easier, more enjoyable or just entertaining.

Also this would allow people to not have to go looking for Runescape money to train their skills(note the Runescape gold you buy have to be used at the orphanage and cant be bought and used else ware).

Overview of Runescape

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<==


Runescape is basically a MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game) owned by Jagex. The game is pretty simple you create a character and guide it through quests and advance in the game while communicating with other people. The game is set in a medieval-fantasy realm where there are spells, dragons, goblins, and many other fiction add-ons.


There are many unique 'skills" that your character can possess and train. Some of them include attack, defense, strength, prayer, herblore, fishing, cooking, etc. The model player of Runescape is a person whose character is known as "Zezima" he/she has been the number one player in Runescape for quite a while. It sometimes seems to me that Zezima is actually an account where a few people can access and train it instead of one person doing all the work.


Sustaining a game of this magnitude requires funds and though the traffic on the website is great it isn't enough to cover the cost of maintaining the game and adding new features. Therefore, Runescape has a members feature in which players can pay a monthly fee of USD $5 to access more features of the game. Though paying a monthly fee for a game seems too much for some people, there are a great many others who have signed up for membership. Having a membership means being able to experience a wider variety of items, skills, quests, and mini games in Runescape which are so addicting that many people seem to think $5 is a great price to pay for such entertainment.


While members have a great advantage in the game, it will not affect the enjoyment of non-members. Member's objects that can only be used by members will be limited to the member's world or server. Upon logging into the game you'll have to select the world into which you want to login, there are two types of worlds, a member's and a non-member's world. Though there are above 30 of both member and non-member worlds, at times certain worlds will be full (2000 users) and no one can login until there's space. But, there's no need to worry although certain worlds may be full there are always other worlds to play in.


Runescape has been one of the few games that do not require you to choose a character class limiting your attacks and skills to that specific class. Players can use melee, magic, and ranged attacks and can switch between them simply by changing weapons. Though armor does not determine what kind of attacks you can use, different types of armor supports different attacks. For example, a plate body (heavy metal armor worn on torso) provided excellent defense against melee and ranged attack but reduces resistance to magic spells and your magic attacking ability while dragon hide armor (armor made of dragon hide worn on torso, legs and wrists) enhances your ranged attacks and magical resistance but lowers your magic attacks.


Many people who either have no skill of their own or are too lazy to venture through the game themselves try and scam people out of their belongings in Runescape by means or trickery and deception. So the need for moderators has been placed. There are two types of moderators in the game Jagex and Player. Jagex moderators are actual employees and are rare to see while player moderators are trusted ordinary players and are much more common.

Engaging In The Basic Quests

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<==


Quests are the life of most Runescape players. Being told to do something and retrieve an item or items for a specific purpose such as Baking perhaps in the first stage of the game may sound boring but it is really the path and the navigational prowess of players that is put under the test. The players are told to look for certain characters in the game to which they can interactively converse with them to secure the needed item.

For the basic quests, the items are really normal ones such as eggs, dough or meat. Ordinarily, these can be found in the game, but certain specifications and types of these items make them different from the normal items seen in the Runescape world. This is one time where known Runescape cheats and hacks will surely have no use. This is what makes Runescape unique and lesser need to look for such exploits since an active community has better things to do than do mischief. Other would make good use of their autoers to ensure immediate skill gain, but these are not really considered cheats or hacks but more on assistants to help players gain headway in skill development.

Quests will always need to be dealt with in the proper manner to which will make Runescape players think. It is not just finding and retrieve considering the large world that Runescape has, players may eventually become lost and retire from completing such quests. This is a risk of quests, the tendency of some players to forget it and move on. Patience is something that is not present for most players and the harder the quests, regardless if they are in for justifiable rewards, may be rendered useless or impossible.

This would entirely depend on the player himself. It is a known fact that people love to solve riddles while some could care less. Making minds think in the game is what makes online games such as Runescape unique from others. It just simply has to be approached analytically and more than just some ordinary game. The usual players who would invest their time for such would be the veteran players who just can’t let their curiosity get the better of them in such cases.

A quest is something that multi-players can do at the same time meaning it is more of an individual task that can be done by many. One player can choose to do it, but can also be done by another player as well hence eliminating the probability of greed. This holds true especially for the early stages of the game where players are trying to feel their way in these so-called quests that most Runescape players are taking up seriously.

The Impact of High Leveled Players In Runescape

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<==


To be the best or at least be among the best will be the ultimate goal that any Runescape player will have in mind. Reason for this is not simply to intimidate other online players but at least get some respect for achieving such levels, a testimony that this player has been religiously playing the game and may possibly be full of experience.
This is what most people cherish the most, the attention and distinction of being an elite player who is obviously a Runescape addict. Investing in the time logged on to the servers is no laughing matter as it will surely take most of a person’s time. While some may find their skills increase faster considering that the presence of autoers and macro software allow them to do a routine action without having to be behind the keyboard all the time. Come to think of it, most online games have the same, but for the sake of clarification, this is not a cheat but is actually an assistant to help speed up the gains as far as skills is concerned.
The best bet for taking our hats off is to the people who get the high levels out of adventuring. Going out in the wild is not an easy undertaking considering that outside the usual evils they provide, there is also the presence of player killers who achieve level-ups through preying on innocent and lower leveled players. However, the adventurers will surely be considered experience gainers as well, as they will be able to learn from possible ambushes and tactics that other veteran players use. This is not to say that their tactics in Runescape should be done as well, but as in anything we do, enhancing such ploys and developing self conceptualized strategies will surely be something that most players will discover in the course of their playing time.
Seeing players who have a +70 or +80 level will be a site to behold and be wary of. For one, this achievement is not done overnight. It was worked on and from all indications; they are tagged as the veteran players who know more of the game than the ones we see wandering off into the wild daily. Good or bad, the distinction remains that they have been around and would know how to handle varying situations at any point of the game in Runescape.
For the lower leveled players, it is not supposed to be a setback or a sign to which they can expect being overplayed in most cases. There are possibilities of even conquering such players if they are good enough to use their wits on how to tactically prey on them as well. There are cases of such and such an achievement will be more meaningful than just pure leveling up. It shall be a distinction of being among the intelligent players ever to play Runescape as well.

Runescape Pking

==>All Runescape Guide List<==

==>Runescape Article List<==

==>Runescape Pking Guide List<==


To start off, you may be wondering - what is Runescape Pking? Simple. PKing stands for Player Killing. This means that you go out into the wilderness, and fight with another player of Runescape. A lot of Runescape PKers focus on one or two stats so that they remain a fairly low level player but pack a punch that is much larger than the average player their level. But be warned, other Runescape players are more of a challenge than a mindless monster. An actual player can heal themselves with food, or prayer to defend themselves, and can fight back with their own cunning strategies. The best area for PKing is North of Varrock, preferably North of the dungeon area.

So is it dangerous? In a word ?Yes. Runescape Pking may seems like fun, and yes if you succeed in PKing someone you do get collect your opponents belongings, but there are some things you should be wary of. First off, be careful when you attack another person in the wild. When you attack someone who hasn’t attacked you first within the last 20 minutes, a skull will appear above your head and last for 20 minutes. However if someone attacks you, you don’t get a skull above your head and you are free to attack them back without receiving a skull. Whilst you have a skull above your head, if you die, whether by monster or person, you lose everything you have on you at that time. Normally you keep your three most valuable things when you die without a skull, but when you have a skull you lose everything.

would be the rangers, people that work solely on their range, sometimes they combine their high range with high defense to allow them to be tougher if they get into close combat. If you are in battle with someone, you can still be attacked by someone who is a ranger, so be careful of that. They抳e most likely equipped themselves with dragon hide armor, which will make it even harder for you in your battle with them. If you are getting attacked by a group of rangers and are heavily outnumbered the smart thing to do is to run. However, if you have your prayer at least to 40, that will allow you to use protect from missiles to make sure that the arrows do not affect yelp protect you from their arrows ?this prayer is often the difference between making it out alive and being piled.


The second type of player to be careful of in the wilderness is a mage. Now there are two main kinds. Firstly there is a pure mage, who has nothing but magic built up. These mages aim to take advantage of their superior mage to easily wipe out the lower level players or players of their own level quickly and efficiently. There is also, the tank mage. This type of mage has magic and defense built up very high. This is so that they can last in a match against someone who is powerful, long enough to wipe them out with their magic. This is the more dangerous mage, and I suggest you watch out for them. Although you can use protect from missiles, this mage can still pack a wallop with its melee.


So what can you do to prepare? There are some things you should do to ensure you are not killed in the wilderness. Firstly try to go with some friends, sometimes joining a Runescape clan can really help you in this regard. You will most likely need the assistance anyway, if the situation gets bad. Also, it can be to your advantage to have you and your friends sneak up on someone, to ensure that you actually get the kill before they run off, although it means you will have to split the spoils of war. That said in the end it will definitely be worth it, because you are five times more likely to make kills with one or two friends than you are by yourself.

Come with food, preferably lobsters if not swordfish. You will need food when in combat with another person. If they are able to hit high on you, you will need to quickly heal yourself. Lobsters are the most popular food out there when it comes to low level PKing. They are probably the most cost effective food to eat as a PKer, and there is always a good supply of lobsters available.
