Evil Tree!


(Pictures from runescape.wikia.com)
Evil Trees are a Members-only D&D centered on the Woodcutting skill.
There are several different kinds of evil trees,as shown in the video above. All except the Elder Evil Tree have normal counterparts. (normal, oak, willow, maple, yew, and magic.)
Evil Trees can be located by talking to Spirit Trees.
Players are allowed to interact with 2 evil trees per 24 hours.
"Warning: Interacting with a tree at any stage of development counts as one of the two daily trees. This applies to nurturing trees, even if players do not have the required levels to chop or burn the fully grown tree. You can now right click and inspect saplings and young trees to find out what they will grow into. Right clicking to inspect and check a fully grown tree's health, or a sapling's type does not count as one of the daily interactions."

-- The Runescape Wiki


When a player chops the evil tree, they gain XP intermittently, and the amount depends on the kind of tree. An Evil Tree has four roots around it. When chopped at, the roots give XP intermittently, but only about 15. When cut down, the roots give Evil Tree Kindling, which can be used to light the tree's base ablaze. On that note, make sure to bring a Tinderbox! Once the tree is on fire, start chopping and don't stop! If a root gets in your way, chop it down, and save the kindling for later. That way, when there is another evil tree, you can have some ready-and-waiting kindling, to get it lit faster, therefore getting 100% reward faster.

Once it is dead, look inside the trunk of the dead and shriveled up tree. You will find some logs, maybe a birds nest or a tree seed, and maybe even a Key Half!

then, go out into the nearby woods. You get several minutes of Auto-Banking, when you have a full inventory.

Urns part 1


Urns are a form of f2p pottery made with the Crafting skill, and were released February 15 2011. There are several different types of urn:

Woodcutting

Fishing

Cooking

Mining

Smelting

Prayer

They each help training in the corresponding skill by giving bonus xp to the player when full and teleported. When teleported, they go directly to Ernie, the urn collector. It is not needed to talk to Ernie to use Urns.

There are several different classes of urns:

Cracked

Fragile

Normal (just states the skill)

Strong (members)

More on urns later!
Look for part 2!

Gnome Graphical Update and Contest Announcement



On February 9, 2011, with the release of the "Prisoner of Glouphrie" quest, JAGEX made a graphical update of the Gnome race, one of the most concentrated races in Runescape, besides Humans. Gnomes always kind of looked like little cubes on top of each other, and thier chat head was irritatingly simple. And yet, I miss the old Gnomes. I think JAGEX could have done a much more original job, although the graphics are flawless. I note that they were updated around the time that the movie "Gnomeo and Juliet" (witch I have no real interest in seeing) was announced. I also note that the Runescape gnomes and the gnomes from the movie are almost identical.
Now they look to un-original. The old gnome chat head gives it that Proper, British-gnomey sort of look, which I always associate with RS Gnomes.

Also, I will be extending the vote deadline for the "What do you think of Free Trade and the Wilderness returning?" poll, and adding a new poll, too!

If you haven't already, GO VOTE NOW!!!

money-making guide 1.0



(This is not my money! I wish it was! It is just a random picture of RS GP!)
I have decided to publish the many ways I have collected to make money. Some are f2p, some are not. I found these in many places on the Internet, so if you see one that you invented, just think of it as me spreading the news. I take no credit for any of these methods, because I didn't invent them!


thewarboy234's
Runescape Money Making Guide

Legend: x = doesn't work
* = tested and approved
% = works sometimes
? = not tested, but probably works

1: Swamp Tar (p2p)*

( Item stacks)
Swamp Tar is found south of Lumbridge in the Swamps. Collect it and sell on the G.E.


2: Feathers (f2p)*

Go to all fishing stores and buy all feathers. Take them to Varrock and sell on the G.E.

3: Orange Baskets(p2p) *

Go to Catherby. Buy a TON of baskets. Go to the Grand Tree. Buy all the oranges. Put in the baskets. Bank them. Repeat. Switch worlds. Repeat. Sell on G.E.

4: Herbs (p2p) %

Kill almost any monster (Men and women work best) and gather all herbs that they drop.
v.1: Sell on G.E. or trade, gaining no xp.;
v.2: Clean, gaining Herblore xp, and then sell.
v.3: Clean and make into potions, gaining Herblore xp, and then sell the potions.

5: Anti-Dragon shields (f2p) ? %
(Can only be used after Dragon Slayer)

Go to Lumbridge. Make sure you posses to Anti-Dragon shields. Talk to Duke Horatio. Ask for an Anti-Dragon shield. He will give you one. Drop it. Repeat, and pick it back up. Now you have 2. Repeat, multiplying the number of Anti-Dragon shields you posses, until you have an inventory full. Bank, repeat, then sell on G.E.

6: Battlestaffs (p2p) *
(This can only be done once per 24 hours.)

Go to Varrock. Go into the Staff shop. Talk to Naff. Buy all of his Battlestaffs; they will be noted. Walk to the G.E. and sell.

Hope this helps and I will be adding more soon!

Woah!

I haven't posted in about 2 months!
Sorry!
Anyway, Now I am posting again. In the News:

The Runescape Wilderness and Free Trade Referendum was voted overwhelmingly affirmative.
This means that the Wilderness is now PvP regardless of what world you are on. This also means that the Trade Limit has been abolished. there are NO LIMITS!!!

Look for my next post (hopefully tomorrow), and don't forget to vote in the new poll "What do you think of the Wilderness and Free Trade Return"!
