Skill Exceptions

02-26-09

Please note: The Assist System cannot be used with Hitpoints, Attack, Strength, Ranged, Prayer, Defence, Slayer (because these are combat-only skills), Agility, Firemaking, Thieving or resource-gathering skills (Woodcutting, Mining, Fishing, Hunter). This is because the system is designed to help players work with resources they already have, not to help them gather those resources or fight.

The following is a list of the restrictions regarding what you can or cannot do with each skill when you are being assisted.

Skill	Restrictions
Runecrafting	You will only be able to craft multiple runes per essence if the assister has a high enough level.
Crafting	You cannot craft demonic sigils, lightning rods or silvthrill rods (because these are all quest-related items).
Fletching	You cannot fletch ogre arrows (because they are quest-related items) or blurite bolts (because they are untradeable) using the Assist System.
Construction	You can only make flat-packed items.
Farming	You will not be able to plant trees, bushes, calquat or cactus (because the potted versions of these plants are untradeable). If you later harvest your produce without assistance, you will get no experience for doing so unless you have a sufficient level.
Magic	If you need help with Lunar Spells, you must have your spellbook set to Lunar Magic. From the normal spellbook, you can only cast the following spells using the Assist System: Enchant bolt spells (all) Enchant jewellery spells (sapphire, emerald, ruby, diamond, dragonstone, onyx) Charge orbs (water, earth, fire, air) Alchemy (low and high level) Bones to Bananas Bones to Peaches Superheat item
Smithing	When being assisted, you must have completed Tourist Trap to smith darts or Death Plateau to smith claws. You cannot smith blurite items (because blurite is untradeable).
Cooking	You cannot use the Assist System to make any of the food prepared in gnome cooking (because it is used in the Gnome Restaurant minigame). You cannot cook lava eel (because it is a quest-specific food).
Herblore	You cannot use the Assist System to make Sanfew serum, Guthix balance, blamish oil, Magic essence or Relicym’s balm (because these are all quest-related potions).
