RuneScape Scamming

Posted by coco

Every single RuneScape player comes across someone who tries to scam them at one point during the game. We hear about these incidences all the time, we hear them in the RuneScape news, the forums, and even from other players in the game. There are just so many more players that would rather cheat than earn their own cash. Whether its item scamming or password scamming, they’re always after you items and money. The following article will analyze a few popular methods of scamming and how to avoid them. Also, Jagex’s efforts to help you in these situations will be mentioned.

1.) The first and probably one of the most common scams happens when trading. A scammer works like a magician, he tries to draw your attention away from what is really happening. A scammer’s dream is to be able to trick someone into paying much more gold for and item that isn’t worth a lot, or is very easy to get. An example of this scamming method: The scammer shows you he is selling a rune scimitar, while you are getting your money or items together, he switches it to a mithril scimitar and hopes you do not notice.

Jagex has added plenty to the trading screen in order to avoid scams like these. They added a double screen, enabling the player to see in writing what they are buying. Also, Jagex has added a warning when a player switches an item. To avoid these scams, as a player, make sure to always double check the deal before you accept the trade.

2.) Another popular scam is password scamming. Some scammers like to work a bit harder for their items and gold. They will use their charm to convince you to tell them your password. Or maybe they will offer to get you some amazing items, cheats, or other made up things. An example of this scamming method: The scammer will stand in the middle of a bank and say “Jagex blocks your password! See mine is ******! Try yours!” Then the scammer waits for people that try to say their password and writes it down. Later, he will then log into the account and is free to take what he pleases. Jagex has added the bank pin system to ensure, if this does happen to you, the items that you have in your bank will be safe in your bank. Players need to be aware that saying your password or giving someone your password is the biggest mistake you can make in the game.

3.) The last scam that will be mentioned in this article is another form of item scamming. Scammers will try to trick a player into dropping their items so that they can collect them afterwards. The more common method is to lure the player into the wilderness, kill them, and then take their items. But some scammers do not have a high enough level for that and try a different method. Scammers will tell you in private that if you drop your items and press Alt+F4, your items will be duplicated, when in reality that will just shut down your browser and you will most likely not be able to log back on in time to save the items. To avoid these kinds of scams, you must remember that you cannot trust anyone in RuneScape, even if they are very nice, they can always potentially turn their backs on you.

 Looking Out For Runescape Scammers

Gaining advantage over other players in online games such as Runescape can also come from other means such as wise players. Impersonation of game administrators, tricking players into so-called secrets and too good to be true trades are just some of the issues that most Runescape players will have to look out for. This is how Runescape has become so addicting and in demand that it leads to players going to the extent of trying to hack accounts the unwittingly way and trying to trick players into believing that such tricks do work.

Impersonation Tricks

For most players trust is a big question mark in Runescape. Identifying and determining who the real game administrators are in the game is something that would be hard for first time players. Like for example, teaching players to change passwords in the game by typing on screen some commands that are actually non-existent is already a scenario where a player account can be hacked. For example, making a player believe that his password won’t be sent can be done by merely replacing the old typed password with asterisks. The usual scenario is for the character to log-off and try the new one, which will obviously fail to log on. By this time, the player who conned him will have gained access to the player’s account and may have gotten hold of all his rare items and gold. This is why that players need to think twice before giving their full trust to their co-players, with special mention to the people who they meet online or in the game itself.

Trade Inconsistencies

Runescape players will definitely look for rare items and go to every extent to be able to get hold of them. Runescape players who lack the overall knowledge of the game may not be entirely aware of the available rare items in Runescape and even if they are, the execution of the exchange and trade should be in a secure place. Guarded places such as towns would be the best bet to deal with people that most players are unfamiliar with. Most Runescape scams are done in the wilderness of the Runescape world and this alone is something that should become suspicious since the tendency is that they may get ambushed or killed in the process. The offered prices of selling players need to be carefully analyzed as well. Cheap or expensive selling should not be the only things for consideration. This is why freely trusting players online should be exercised with extreme caution in Runescape. The presence of such scams and tricks cannot be discounted and may make the life of Runescape players miserable.

Runescape may only be a game to most avid online playing gamers but to some, it is also an opportunity to wreak havoc and mischief. Not all Runescape players share the same objective of simply playing for the fun of it, and this is a given fact with the rampant Runescape scams that are being done anywhere today.

Basically there are some very simple rules you can apply to avoid having your Runescape account hacked. Firstly and foremost don’t give your Runescape password out to anyone, ever! It’s quite a simple rule yet it is amazing just how many times people give out the Runescape password and a couple of days later are complaining they got their Runescape account hacked. Next step is don’t download Runescape hacks. Why? Because so often these Runescape hacks are just Trojans and key loggers that are not designed to hack anyone else accounts other than your own. The same goes for thinking like Runescape auto miners and auto fighters; they so often just key loggers. Next step is not to use your Runescape password anywhere other than on the official Runescape site, whilst many other sites will encrypt your password on the rare occasion there has been cases where people have collected users passwords via sites like forums and clans etc. Next step after keeping your Runescape password private is to make it reasonable in length, at least 8 characters comprised of both numbers and letters to make it as difficult as possible for those that do try and decrypt your password. Short passwords that are encrypted and are not made up of at least 8 characters tend to be quite easy to break with time. So the longer your Runescape password is, and other passwords for that matter, the harder it is for hackers to hack your accounts.

Well I hope you found this little guide about Runescape hacks useless and you will be able to some of the information on board to secure your Runescape password and make it as difficult as possible for people to hack your Runescape account.

This Runescape scam is a little cruder and essentially involves someone convincing you that they have found out a way to duplicate Runescape items, and that you can do it as well. Then they will something to the effect of, all you have to do is place the Runescape item on the floor and then wait 5 seconds and then stand on the item and then simultaneously press ALT + F4, at which point your internet window will close and you will be logged out of Runescape and considering it will take you quite awhile to load a new window and load Runescape again by which time the items you dropped will have spawned so that everyone can see them and which point the person who convinced you that you could duplicate your Runescape items has picked the items your left on ground up and run away.

These are a few of the more popular Runescape Scams out there and as I mentioned earlier in this articles more and more people are searching to find out how to scam people on Runescape and the old saying that there is a sucker born every minute is relevant in Runescape as it is in real life. So be aware of things that are too good to be true and remember that there are no such things are Runescape item duplicators so don’t fall for the Runescape scams that involved people claiming that they can duplicate your Runescape items.

Stronghold of Security

Posted by coco

The Stronghold of Security is a minigame for both freeplayers and members that teaches those who dare to go near it about how to keep their account safe, while giving generous rewards at the same time.

The Questions
The Floors & Rewards
The Boots
Barbarian Village Dungeon

——————————————————————————–

Getting There

The stronghold can be found in the middle of Barbarian Village between the rocks of the mine and consists of four levels with different monsters on each. Unfortunately you can only get the rewards once, but can kill the monsters for combat experience for as long as RuneScape exists. It is possible to complete the mini-game at level 3 even though there are monsters all the way up to level 86, so you can get the great rewards on any pures you have if you want to.

Climb down the hole and you will appear in a room with a message in your chat box.

Portals

If you should happen to die in the Stronghold of Security, or if want to go back in and don’t want to face the monsters, you can simply click on the portals you will see at the entrance of the stronghold and near the treasures.

——————————————————————————–

What to Do

This is a very simple mini-game to do because all you have to do is answer questions about the security of your account. Because it is all about making your account secure, you must have recovery questions set to be able to get a reward, so make sure you have some set before entering the dungeon or else you will have to log out part way through and set some.

There are four floors, each having a different look to them, and the monsters getting harder as you progress, but the aim of each floor is the same. This aim is to reach the chest at the end, learning about account security on the way.

——————————————————————————–

The Questions

One of the first things you should notice when you enter the dungeon is that the doors are never alone, but situated in pairs. The first door you will go through normally, but when trying to go through the second door you will be asked a question about account security. There are 20 different questions, each having three options that you could chose from, but only one being correct. Whether you get a question right or wrong, there will also be an explanation about what to do in the situation asked about.

In this guide the questions will be put in the following format:

Q: The question goes here
A: The correct answer goes here
R: The explanation given by Jagex goes here

So, here come the questions that will help you through the dungeon, they’re all easy so you should know them already, but nobody can know everything.

Q: What do you do if someone tells you that you have won the RuneScape Lottery and asks you for your password or recoveries to award your prize?

A: Game Inbox on the RuneScape website.
R: We only contact our players via the game Inbox which you can access from our RuneScape website.

Q: Can I leave my account logged in while I’m out of the room?
A: No
R: This is the safest, both in terms of security and keeping your items! Leaving your character logged in can also can also allow someone to steal your items or entire account!

Q: My friend used this great add-on program he got from a website, should I?
A: No, it might steal my password.
R: The only safe add-on for RuneScape is the Windows client available from our RuneScape website.

Q: My friend asks me for my password so that he can do a difficult quest for me. Do I give it to him?
A: Don’t give him my password.
R: You can make it alone and the success will taste even better. Don’t forget you can ask people for advice too!

Q: Why do I need to type in recovery questions?
A: To help me recover my password if I forget it or it is stolen.
R: Your recovery questions will help Jagex staff protect and return your account if it is stolen. Never use personal details for recoveries or bank PINs!

Q: Who can I give my password to?
A: Nobody
R: Your password should be kept secret from everyone. You should *never* give it out under any circumstances.

Q: What do you do if someone asks you for your password or recoveries to make you a member for free?
A: Don’t tell them anything and click the ‘Report Abuse’ button.
R: Press the ‘Report Abuse’ button and fill in the offending player’s name and the correct category.

Q: How often should you change your recovery questions?

A: Memorable
R: A good recovery answer that not many people will know, you won’t forget, will stay the same and that you wouldn’t accidentally give away. Remember: Don’t use personal details for your recoveries.

R: Press the ‘Report Abuse’ button and fill in the offending player’s name and the correct category.

Q: What is an example of a good bank PIN?
A: The birthday of a famous person or event.
R: Unless you tell someone, they are unlikely to guess who or what you have chosen, and you can always look it up. Never use personal details for recoveries or bank PINs!

Q: What do I do if a moderator asks me for my account details?
A: Politely tell them no and then use the ‘Report Abuse’ button.
R: Report any attempt to gain your account details as it is a very serious breach of RuneScape’s rules. Never use personal details for recoveries or bank PINs!

The Floors & Rewards

Each of the four floors have different monsters on them, and the harder the monsters, the better the reward.

Floor 1 - Vault of War

This floor is the easiest to get past by far because none of the monsters will automatically attack you, whatever your combat level is.

You will enter the floor in the north-west corner, and the reward is on the east side of the floor. The two main routes you can get there are keeping north and keeping south. Once you reach the chest, better known as the ‘Gift of Peace’, and have opened it you will receive your reward of 2000 coins and the ‘Flap’ emote.

Floor 2 - Catacomb of Famine

The monsters on this floor don’t go above level 53, so there isn’t much need for food and as long as you stay to the north part of the floor.

You will enter the floor in the north-east corner, and the reward is in the center of the floor. To get there you should stay to the north so that you don’t go near the higher level monsters and have the chance of getting hit damage. On this floor the reward isn’t in a chest, but a sack called the ‘Grain of Plenty’. Search it to receive your reward of 3,000 coins and the ‘Slap Head’ emote. All stats that have been lowered will also be restored.

Floor 3 - Pit of Pestilence

This is the first floor where you may struggle at lower levels. There are monsters up to level 68 that can reduce your Strength level with their Magic attacks. They can also hit reasonable amounts of damage, so remember to bring food.

You will enter the floor in the south-west corner, and the reward is in the center of the floor. To get there you can take either a left or right turn at the first fork, then carry on round keeping inwards all the time. Although you can go either way, because of the way the monsters walk around, it is suggested you take a left turn to start with, then keep to the right, running through any rooms with monsters in. As with the first floor, the reward can be found inside a chest called the ‘Box of Health’. Search it to receive your reward of 5000 coins and the ‘Idea’ emote.

Floor 4 - Sepulchre of Death

This is the fourth and final floor of the dungeon, having the hardest monsters, which are the easiest to get past. The highest level monsters are level 86, but with carefully timed running, getting past them can be very easy. If you do unfortunately mis-time your run, you could get hit hard, so food is suggested whatever level you are.

You will enter the floor in the center of the east side of the dungeon, and the reward is in the room just to the west. Although you can almost see the reward from where you enter the floor, there is a bit of a walk to get there. Head north-west until you are about to go into the large room in the north-west part of the floor. This room is full of high level monsters that will attack you as soon as you enter, but as long as you have run on, and select the door you are running to the moment you enter, you will only get hit once by the first monster that manages to attack you.

The reward on this floor is different to that of the other floors because you won’t get coins, but something special instead. The reward can be found inside the ‘Cradle of Life’. Search the cradle the receive the ‘Stamp’ emote and a choice between either Fancy or Fighting boots.

——————————————————————————–

The Boots (And Their Stats)

Each pair of boots has the same stats, but have different looks depending on what you want them for. The Fancy Boots are multi-coloured, so look good at a fancy dress party, while the Fighting Boots look good with most sets of combat equipment. They also give free players a brand new look due to the very limited range of footwear they have.

Fighting Boots

Fancy Boots

Stats

Attack Bonus

Stab +0
Slash +0
Crush +0
Magic -3
Ranged -1

Defense Bonus

Stab +1
Slash +2
Crush +3

If you get bored of one pair of boots and want the other pair then you can chose to change them by going back to the Cradle of Life and searching it again.

If you ever lose your boots, just go back to the Cradle of Life and search it to get another pair.

runescape2 money cheats

Posted by coco

Now there is always lots of talk about their being exploits in Runescape that people can use to hack into Runescape to make adjustments, and in the past yes there have been minor ones, but these Runescape exploits are extremely temporary and definitely not permanent features of Runescape with the Jagex staff constantly patching such glitches. Not to mention such hacking attempts have never been as exploitable to the point that people were able to change the amount of money they had or give themselves unlimited amounts of money, rather were more along the lines of being able to duplicate expensive items that they could then sell, like party hats. Now if you’d like to take advantage of the exploits in Runescape the reality is unless you’re the person to actually find the exploit yourself chances are you have missed the boat because as Jagex gets wind of them they are already fixing them, and if anyone on a website or forum is explaining to you that they know a free Runescape money hack and all they need you to do is email them your account name and password, rest assured they are just a runescape hacker trying to make you their next sucker with the old “I know a free Runescape money hack that can give you unlimited money” routine.

Mining Method: Clay

Posted by coco
  1. Get a bronze pick-axe or better. Receive one from the Mining Tutor (south of Lumbridge), or from up top of the Lummy Castle entrance.
  2. Go to Varrock.
  3. Go to the West Varrock Mines.
  4. Mine a lot of clay
  5. Get a bucket or jug (can be bought, or the bucket can be found in the Lumbridge kitchen).The grand exchange in Varrock is the best place because there is a fountain really close to the east and you can bank or sell it fast.
  6. Fill it up with water from various fountains or wells (marked with a water droplet).
  7. Stay by the well and use it on the clay to make soft clay.
  8. Put the clay in the bank, and repeat until you have quite a bit.
  9. Go to the forums and look under construction.
  10. Add the person to your friends list, and send them a message. Soft clay sells for about 200gp each, so this method can make lots of cash easy(if u sell them on the grand exchange you can get 160-180gp).

You can also go to the mining area in Varrock and mine clay and then go to bank and when you have 10,000 clay. Sell it in the Grand Exchange and you’ll get one million gp.(It sells very quickly).

Alternatively, you can use a bracelet of clay to speed up the process as the bracelet allows you to mine wet clay instead of the normal hard clay. However, it will only last for 28 clay.

  1. Get the following:
    • Any kind of axe.
    • At least 2000 Gold.
    • Must know the Brimhaven Dungeon.
    • 70+ ranged
    • Black dragonhide, spined boots, Archer ring, Archer helm.
    • Wealth ring.
    • Rune crossbow.
    • Broad bolts. They are 64 ea(today)and are just as good as adamantite bolts.(55 slayer required now.)
    • Anti Dragon Shield.
    • Bring at least 12 antifire potions.(if you wear an Antifire shield you will get 100% fire protection)
    • Either a charged Amulet of Glory, or some sort of teleportation tablet(Ardougne teleport suggested).
  2. Head to Tzhaar and make sure you have the above.
  3. Make your way to Brimhaven dungeon entrance, give the guy 875 G.P and enter the dungeon.
  4. Once you make your way to fire giants, go to the last vine.
  5. Switch run on, and run past Black Demons. The North chamber leads to Red dragons, East chamber leads to Bronze dragons, and South chamber leads to Iron/Steel dragons(recommended).
  6. If you go to the Iron/Steel chamber, drink your antifire potion. There are sure to be a lot of people there, so go to the East part of the chamber. There are usually any people in the iron dragons there. If you are looking for Steel dragons, head to the middle. Kill one, and pick up dragon bones. Today they were 1.6k each.
  7. If you go to the Bronze dragon chamber, make sure you have drunk a dose of antifire potion. Kill a dragon, and pick up the dragon bones. I am 85% sure that they are going to be 1.5K plus.
  8. Teleport out of the brimhaven dungeon and bank.
  9. Repeat the process. Each trip you will possibly make 30K+. It depends on how many dragon bones you get. If you collect 20, then that is 40K+. If you get the rare draconic visage drop, then teleport out of there, head to the Grand Exchange, and sell it. You are sure to make 20M+.
