I have commitment issues apparently. If you check my account on Runeclan it shows the five different display names I've used in two or three years. In any case I'll be on a bunch today and maybe late tonight so I'll keep my eyes open, thanks.

You can use these codes by logging in here and putting it in. You get a pretty hefty amount of stuff for using them, 30 days membership, a legendary pet (the kind that picks up and banks things and other stuff), 15 keys for TH and 200 RuneCoins. If you want to use these things I recommend it!

Legendary pet alone is worth it I'd say!

Got a twitch prime code the other day and I feel delusional enough to pick up a MMO again.

A while back I asked how to best utilize a limited membership/money for bonds, and IIRC it was getting 90 in certain skills for ports. I ended up hitting 77 runecrafting before I got bored and gave up. Are ports still a good source of income and worth the grind?

Also, what are quick/easy ways to train agility, construction, summon, and farming? I've been trying to finish the useful/pre-req quests but most of them are locked behind relatively high requirements for those skills and there doesn't seem to be a fast way to level them.

Summoning goes hand in hand with Slayer, because you get a ton of charm drops. Farming and Construction are costly, but farming can be done pretty easily with trees if you do a run in the morning before work and in the evening after work. Agility sucks turds :shrug:

Tears of Guthix and the Guthixian Butterflies can train them for you if they're low enough. But they have to be your lowest skill to be trained.

Barring agility, there's also some Distractions and Diversions designed to train skills easier and less "bash your head against the wall until it stops". Definitely go do Beneath Cursed Tides, since that gives you access to the Giant Oyster's area. Also, until 5:00 PM PST today (April 18th), check for some Fayre Basic Tools in your bank because today you can train Magic or Farming at wherever the hell it takes you.

Also farming-related, do the Fairy Tale trilogy. Guarantees no more weeding, plus the fairy rings are very useful for my herb runs so far.

Summoning has Familiarization. It's weekly, so might as well get to it. Plus you can make money off of this via spider eggs and the pouches themselves.

Construction's a bit more tricky. There's really only God Statues, Barlak, and a Harp in Elf City. You're gonna lose a lot of money powerleveling.

On top of that, you also have lamps and stars from TH and other poo poo. Dump them into whatever you want.

Thanks for the help! Sounds like I'll have to shell out a bunch of gold for construction and summoning, but I'm glad to hear slayer helps with summoning. I've been working my way through slayer assignments since killing+looting stuff is pretty fun. Agility's going to be a bitch to level up though, it's only been like 3 days and I'm already sick of going through the courses.

And yeah the fairy tale quests are high on my to-do list due to the fairy rings but I need to get farming and herblore up before I can start it (currently 20/35 respectively). Herblore seems to just be a matter of money but farming might take some time to figure out.

Farming Banshee's at low levels with Ectoplasmator at Slayer tower gets you nice Prayer XP, Charms, Herbs and seeds for Farming (Farming and herblore can go hand in hand I guess).

I do and would be willing to lend it but unless your doing telos/raids why would you need it over a ring of wealth? Ring of Wealth covers pretty much everything now.

The whole Hazelmere's ring thing is igniting a bit of lottery lust in my soul so I'm feeling like it's worth trying. Plus the Jmod that's overseeing the item (Timbo? or something) commented today that there aren't a lot of people using Luck of the Dwarves while on slayer tasks (which seemed to be a big HINT HINT to the playerbase)

This was a good watch. Made me think how the player base would have developed had they not done the removal of wilderness update. That really killed the game for me.

Also its nice seeing this old and janky java game is actually gaining players. Mainly thanks to OSRS I guess. I think the developers for OSRS are doing a lot of things right and Im really tempted to pick it up again.

From what I've heard the staff currently doesn't give unlimited airs like promised and also the event is absolutely awful in every way and a blatant money grab. A lot of people seem really irked at this one...

the staff gives infinite earth, fire, and water runes but not air

and yeah the current event doesn't really give great exp for how much each event costs, and if you want rewards the optimal play is to just run the 1 token event repeatedly. and since you only get 100 tokens a day you have to play for ten days straight to actually afford anything decent

You mean besides the elemental staves or what? They've been in there for a while, even many that give two types of unlimited runes at once eg the mud battlestaff/mystic mud staff gives unlimited water and earth, steam does water and fire, lava does earth and fire.
