Safety Tips - Item Duplication Scams

1: A scammer might ask you to borrow him/her some item to duplicate. He might also show an "example" of duplication before you deal with him. Remember, there is no such thing as duplicating items. You will never get your item back!

2: A scammer will tell you to drop anything that you want duplicated, wait for 3-5 seconds and then press alt + F4 or ctrl+w. Pressing these keys closes your active window, in this case the Runescape window, leaving all your stuff to be picked up by the other player. By the time you log back in, the other player is long gone with your items.

3: Some bogus websites sell "Item Duplicating Software" or offer it as a free download. Usually some fake screenshots will be shown to make you think they have the real deal. The truth, however, is that all such software, whether it can be bought or downloaded for free, contains trojans, viruses or keyloggers. So you might lose a lot more than just your Runescape account if you swallow the bait.

Game Info - Tanks

A tank in Runescape can be defined as a character with high Defence and low Attack & Strength. They also have high Range and/or Magic. Tanks have a certain edge seeing as they take minimum damage while seriously hurting their opponent with Range or Magic.

F2P Tanks
A F2P tank is usually a ranger who wears green D'hide body, Rune helm and Rune legs. There are also F2P Mage Tanks who wear full armour such as Adamant in combination with a staff for Magic. Their stats are usually as follows:

Range Tank (F2P)
1-30 Attack and Strength
40+ Defence
40+ Range
1-43 Prayer

Mage Tank (F2P)
1-30 Attack and Strength
30-40 Defence
40+ Magic
1-43 Prayer

P2P Tanks
The P2P Tanks are the most widely recognized Tanks. They have the advantage of Barrows armour which gives both massive defence and range bonus (Karils Crossbow, Crystal bow, etc). Their stats are usually as follows:

1-70 Attack (going over 70 is not recommended)
1-70 Strength (same as attack)
70+ Defence (some keep it at 70 to preserve combat level)
70+ Range (For Karils)
70+ Mage (optional but can be very good)
52 Prayer (Smite)


Did You know?

...that the clothes shop in the city of Lletya in Tirannwn sells coloured dyes?
This is the quickest way to collect dyes, even quicker than providing the Witch in Draynor with the ingredients. The dyes are relatively cheap, but you must have completed the 'Roving Elves' quest to access the city.

...that things respawn faster on a fuller server?
So if you are doing something that takes advantage of faster respawn rate (such as mining or woodcutting) you should log on to a server with a large amount of players. Bear in mind that there may be more competition for the resources though.

...that the Magic guild has teleports?
At the top of the tower there are portals leading to various places. The east portal takes you to the Wizard's tower south of Draynor Village. The south portal takes you to the Dark Wizard's tower just north of the Crafting guild. The west portal takes you to Thormac the Sorceror's house just west of Catherby. Certainly a quick and free way out of Yanille.
