So, my brother and I used to play this a decade ago and now he's supposed to be moving back to town in a few months. I thought maybe I'd hop in and make a push to get some 99s to surprise him and maybe we could play together again in our free time. I've got a few months, but I really hardly recognize the new game at all. What's a good place to start? Is there a "Welcome back, here's how to play now" primer?

Honestly, as different as things look, it's still mostly the same game. What kind of skills do you have? It might be best to just focus on one or two things and acquaint yourself with the changes to that before moving on to something else. There should be a bunch of low-level and tutorial quests that you can do to get used to things.

Just wanted to say if anyone wants to create a new thread with the NXT release, feel free to use any/all my material. I don't even mind creating it myself, I'll just need some contributions from goons on what's additionally relevant in the game since last year. Before/after screenshots of Java client/NXT like the one above would be nice for example.

So, for the past few days, I've taken to doing [Gold Ore -> Gold Bar + Dragonstone -> Dragon Bracelet -> Hi-Alch] for Smith/Craft/Magic for a variety of reasons (Unlocking invention, Cooking Urns, Lava Flow Mine, Love Story, While Guthix Sleeps) while slowly making coins to support my Bond habit. Is this an ok method as long as I can keep a constant supply of DStone, or am I a big dumb who is missing better ways of doing this?

the best way is probably just killing monsters to level magic and make money and use the profits to level the other two honestly, since combat magic costs almost nothing now because of revolution and combat is BY FAR the fastest way to make money.

I haven't done a lot of fighting and I don't think I have EoC turned on. Is there a good primer?

I have a bunch of Dung levels, but no tokens. I don't really like dung at all, but the rewards are cray cray. How to I get mass tokens so I can buy rewards without dunging forever?

How do magic weapons work. If I have wand+orb do I get the accuracy from both? If not, what's the point in using both?

higher rate of fire = higher dps even though you miss more shots.

So, having using wand+offhand has higher rate of fire than just 1 by itself?

RS3: I want to play Runescape with 20 years of game design advancements.
RSC: I want to play a version of Runescape like I did in high school that I don't have to think about.

Neither is wrong. Live your best life.

There are some lovely bots on Discord currently spamming channels and people with child porn, so for anyone who newly joins the server, you will not be able to do anything until you're given the nerd role. If you want to speed up being verified, post in this thread after joining so someone can verify you're not an Aatrek bot!!

To be clear, those bots are loose in the wild, but did not spam OUR discord.

Is that a plugin to give old items old sprites or have they just never been updated?

Not a criticism I'm just surprised to see the same log sprites in 2020 Runescape 3.

Logs still look like logs, and that's ok.

Out of curiosity, how badly am I gimping myself I opt to use legacy combat? I don't really like dealing with the abilities, I just want to click bad guys and watch it play out. Is that gonna hurt me in the long run?

It's a substantial dps and survivability loss. My best recommendation is to look at the wiki and use one of the pre-fab bars there and just set it all to revolution (automatic cast), as that's still a big upgrade.
