Hi all! A quick introduction; I've played Runescape way back when. No clue what I was doing, but having fun. The best I've got was Mithril but I was proud!
Now, almost 15 years later, I've gotten back into Old School Runescape. I've played a lot in f2f till I reached lvl 52 and got my full rune armour. Finally after 15 years!
It was always relaxing for me to go to Draynor village and just fish for herring, teleport to Varrock, and sell it at the GE. Draynor village was always a busy place. Lots of people having fun woodcutting and fishing.
Now this is my first day as a member, and I'm walking around in my first member world, but it feels a bit empty sometimes. Draynor village almost has no one active in the member worlds for example.
What I'm asking is; What are some fun and relaxing activities to do as a new member? Where are the chill people at and where can I unwind best after a long day of work while also making a bit of GP and XP on the side.
Cheers!

First of all this is about a different game (Albion online) but i feel like my question fits for multiple types of games aswell as for runescape since albion is kinda the same but with better graphics and a bit different logic. ANYWAYIll get to the point.
I have created a bot for the game albion online with python that sets buy and sell orders on the market by checking if certain images are on the pc screen. If so behave on programmed logic. It works fine (like 99%) for now on the pc but obviously is bound to a screen aswell as the current set display resolution. It uses python, and opencv to recognize images within a certain threshhold.
I want to expand soon and was looking for other ideas that are maybe more reliable than using a monitor. Since this subreddit is dedicated for runescape botting i think ill get the best replies here.
Since i plan to do more types of bots aswell as bots that move around and pickup items (very common in albion) i thought ill set it up properly once to be able to more easly expand later on so i have the following ideas:
1st The current bot works with python respectively pyautogui, pil and opencv to check if within a treshhold an image is found on the screen. This works for like 99% of the time, only sometimes my script fails since it doesnt find some buttons but i think i could get around that with better error handling or tweaking. The backside of this is that were bound to a monitor and a gaming pc. Obviously since it uses the current pc the pc cannnot be used for other activities.
2nd Ive looked into machine learning and object detection which i would feed my images into it. And then based on if image is on screen click. Same downsides as 1st. But at least the clicking on images would be more accurate (i think, id have to do more research on it).
3rd Sort of combine either 1st and or 2nd but on mobile. There are libraries (adb) to connect ur phone to a pc and with that i could just run python code on the phone and do all the image recognition on it. I was thinking that id just get multiple phones and connect them to a pc (possibely a pi) and then just let that handle the logic. Since the game is run on the phone the pi doesnt need a lot of cpu with that would be relatively "cheap" to run instead of running a gaming pc with a graphics card.
4th Same as 3rd but instead of using real smartphones i could use virtual machines. Id then for that cause setup a specified server for it obviously.
5th Ive got my feet wet with packet analysis by downloading a radar hack and looking into the source code. Im confident that within a bit of time i could get that to run and manipulate packages sent between server and my client (arp spoofing i think). Question is how undetectable that eould be by easy anti cheat. Id have to do a bit more research on the anticheat.
Does anyone have experience with any of those methods? Is it even possible to run a bot headless? Id be glad for any advice.
Thanks in Advance

I’ve been considering buying this game, but it seems pretty combat focused. I know there’s crafting, but is it comparable to Elder scrolls online where it’s just supplementary to the main game? Or does it compare closer to RuneScape where you can fully immerse in different skills like fishing, woodcutting, etc and avoid combat all together?

I’m probably posting into the void but I wanted to create a discussion on how we could improve each skill and gather ideas. I was inspired by the survey to give some ideas on how skilling could be improved.
Philosophy around the revamps: I would like to see skilling be both more fun and more useful. I personally believe we should have both afk and active skilling methods. This allows people to play how they prefer and not feel burned out from being too bored or having to focus on one thing for a long time.
Please add more ideas or add to the ideas below!
Agility training method: Agility Dungeon: Filled with traps, obstacles and timed. Faster completion means bigger xp drop. How to make agility useful: More shortcuts in the overworld. In combat and boss battles, damage could be mitigated by chance of dodging a trap in the boss arena.
Archeology: Well made skill, continue to add more archeological sites.
Cooking: Time to become a master chef! Increase to 120 and add more complicated dishes. Instead of just cooking a lobster, add some butter, lemon, herbs. Takes longer to create each dish but higher xp. Uses: these new dishes will both heal and buff, such as temporary increase damage. They will also have a tasty rating where higher cooking makes it more likely to cook tastier dishes.
Construction: Player owned house rework needed or just scraped and replaced with a more useful idea. I would be happy to see the houses removed at this point.
Crafting: Crafting ranged and magic armour more In line with levels. But also the ability to create mods for armour and jewellery for combat buffs rather than the masterwork route of mining and smithing rework. Could also be reworked to modify skilling outfits to buff skilling activities as well.
Divination: This has both an active and passive skilling method. It isn’t the most fun skill but hard to come up with how to make it fun.
Farming: Love POF, more content and animals.
Fishing: new method- Big Fish: Similar to fish flingers but in the overworld, more involved fishing where you gain more xp for fishing larger fish. Larger fish could work with cooking for increasing tasty rating of dishes. Update when we have a new region with some new fish.
Firemaking: I personally enjoy accidental firemaking. Would love to hear some creative ideas like this rather than just more logs to burn.
Fletching: Again same as firemaking I think accidental fletching was a good direction. Creating more useful bows and improving level scaling is important for this update. Creating modifications see armou weapon modifications below.
Herblore: I am happy with current herblore. Ironman issue: Getting number of herbs can be tedious. A new way to gain herbs outside of combat and farming would be good.
Hunter: More creatures to hunt, would love to see this expanded in the next new location added. A more involved skilling method such as Ken it hunting, which involves tracking down dangerous creatures. Croesus mushrooms are already satisfying afk method.
Mining: new ore and 120 skill
Runecrafting: Runecrafting is one of the most needed revamps in my opinion. I would like to see a brand new training method rather than just increase in xp rates. The namesake of Runescape is runes. I feel like they need some love. Possible new skilling method: New alters added to be used for new spells/spellbook. Instead of just having everything created through the abyss, reward players for exploring the world and going to the alters themselves. We could spend more time in the alter, where we might need to power it up before we create the runes. This would mean we would make more runes per trip but also get a bigger xp drop per trip.
Smithing: modifications new metals 120 skill
Thieving: Heists: It’s time to rob a bank, add heists in museums and banks across RuneScape. You have a limited time to steal as much as you can from a building and get out. This could be a good post 99 method as I think we are a bit above pickpocketing now.
Woodcutting: More trees! Better levelling curve.
Armou weapon modifications: My concept around this is to modify equipment in a similar way to invention however it will have different uses. For example, add scope to bow means the range of bow is greater with an increase to accuracy, but a decrease in speed. Certain weapons and armour will have modification slots. This brings some more options for boss drops as well, dropping loot that can be used in an artiisan skill to create weapon specific modifications. This could add a new dimension to loot and combat.

*This is not a marketplace post meant to sell a scripting client, it is simply to give people visibility into an upcoming scripting client\*
ZruxSkiller New and Advanced External Scripting Client for OSRS
Features:

• Utilizes color and object detection techniques for maximum reduction in ban rate.
• Randomized mouse movements (tweens).
• Randomized clicks within object radius, no patterns to be formed.
• Randomized timing between clicks, mouse movements, and all other interactions within each script.
• Heavily focused on mimicking human behavior as much as possible.
• Automatic logout functionality if you wish to avoid getting reported during certain scripts.
• Timer functionality to let the scripts run as little or as long as you'd like.

Currently in Beta Release and Supports the Following:

• NMZ Absorption
• NMZ Prayer
• Sand Crabs Combat
• Magic High Alchemy
• Woodcutting any trees
• Canafis Agility Course with Automatic Grace Pickups
• Mining any rocks
• Fishing any pools
• Many more to be added very soon (typically 1 new script every 1-2 days)

The scripts and GUI are fully built in Python utilizing image/color detection libraries, so you won't ever have to worry about any process injections or anything of the sort that immediately puts a red flag on your account.
Here are some images of the client's interface and me running an NMZ script:
ZruxSkiller Imgur Images
Grandfather Program: I am looking to build a decent reputation before fully releasing the client, so I'd like to take between 5-10 people to be "grandfathers." As a grandfather, you will get a temporary license to test and review the client for a set amount of days. The client also has automatic updates, so whenever I release a new script, which will be pretty often going forward, you will receive a notification as you launch the client and it will allow you to update to the latest version right away. I will also take requests/recommendations from the grandfathers as to what scripts to add in the coming weeks.
Additionally, I am in the process of obtaining a code signing certificate for my program so that it can be verified and validated as legitimate software.
Since the grandfather seats are very limited, I will take applications and decide on a certain number of people to vet in. If you are interested, feel free to check my Reddit profile for the official link to the discord. You will need to directly message either me or an administrator once you join to gain access to the other channels and submit your application.
Thank you.
UPDATE: Enhanced mouse movement and added new firemaking script.

Not a hot take, or at least it shouldn’t be. It’s so tiring seeing endless posts here/on socials about how X new update is actually shit because bots can now farm it. Bots have existed since the beginning of Runescape and will only get better as things like AI continue to develop to add layers of complexity to scripts. Bots will never be out of the game and many bots exist that even someone who thinks every player who doesn’t type back is a bot will not pick up on.
Yes, new updates can be abused by bots. Yes, bots will forever exist. Yes, I suppose bots are not favorable to have around but it’s just a reality of the game. If they upset you so much you should rethink how you view the game. Especially if you’re someone who advocates against new updates because you think bots are the main issue. Bots are complex enough to do any type of activity in the game now. Literally every update can be farmed. It’s like the equivalent of someone getting upset at a new update because it will bring in more gold to the market. Like yeah, no Shit buddy every update does. Every update will have bots partake in it. It’s not something that you need to be eternally worked up about. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’ve been thinking about how most of our current raids in Old School RuneScape lean heavily towards combat, with a sprinkling of skilling to mix things up. Why don't we flip the script and introduced a raid where skilling isn’t just a side dish, but the main course?  

Introducing a Skilling Raid Concept:

This idea revolves around a raid designed entirely around non-combat skills. Imagine a world where your mastery of skills like Mining, Smithing, Herblore, Runecraft, and more dictate your success in raid challenges, reshaping the standard raid format into a skilling paradise. I see this as a chance to make skilling a more desirable activity, not just a stepping stone to complete quests or to be able to fight bosses. Share your ideas and help come up with a great initial concept that Jagex could potentially run with!
 

Goals For Raid Design:

• The raid should be designed to be accessible yet challenging, scaling with the level of your skills, equipment, and player ability. This means mid to early-late game players can succeed with skill and strategy, but leave the raid rewarding for those of higher levels.
• We should aim for rewards that rival those of the other raids in both monetary value and utility. The excitement of opening a purple and receiving a piece of skilling equipment worth a ton of gp would be a welcome change of pace.
• While some skilling bosses currently exist, this is a chance for us to move away from the three step partially afk-able fight recipe used in wintertodt and tempeross. These challenges should pull in some of the things that make PvM successful and engaging
• Each fight will likely take several minutes and could potentially contain multiple phases, while puzzles or trials can be shorter

 

Some example ideas for bosses/challenges/puzzles:

• The Aquatic Behemoth: Set within a giant lake, players may use nets to pull up appendages from the Behemoth to damage, or fletch balistae/ammunition that gets fired at the body of the monster. All this takes place while dealing with rising and falling water levels, and various attacks from the boss itself
• The Forgotten Librarian: An ancient guardian of an expansive library filled with arcane knowledge and deadly traps. During phase one players find fragments of old scripts while avoiding the librarian, while in phase two and can use Runecraft to create magical wards or activate counterspells/glyphs. The boss may envelop sections of the library in darknesss or create illusions of itself all while book golems are summoned that must be avoided or disbanded by the players.
• The Great Stonewright: A massive golem that players dismantle piece by piece. Perhaps some damage can be dealt by mining certain sections that shift around, or you craft projectiles to launch from various catapaults, all while dodging falling projectiles or environmental hazards. As pieces are destroyed, you can use remains to smith unique tools that can change the rest of the fight depending what order you fight the boss in.
• Enchanted Maze: Could be similar in a way to Hallowed Sepulchre. Players navigate through a shifting and rearranging labyrinth using agility and thieving to overcome traps and unlock shortcuts

 

Example reward ideas:

• Mega-rare boots that allow players to Sprint instead of Run (move three tiles a tick instead of two) at the cost of using substantially more run energy. This may be too strong but would be universally valuable. I imagine in some bosses, current BiS boots will still remain meta, but some places this would take over. It would also be great in skilling where you constantly are running back to bank or back to your PoH.
  
• An axe that allows you a chance at chopping other trees in an AoE around the one you are chopping
  
• Tools stronger than dragon of various forms
  
• If Jagex ever wanted an equivalent of the toolbelt from rs3, this is a place you could add it in, similar to the thread of elidinis in ToA
  

 
I'd love to hear what amazing ideas everyone here has for potential bosses/loot/mechanics, or any other constructive ideas for making this something Jagex takes seriously! I'd also like to know what area you think would make a great location for the next raid and how the bosses would thematically fit in there. If I get a bunch of good feedback, I'll try and put together an update with some of the best ideas fleshed out a bit more.

On smoke breaks I talk with a friend about my dreams of escaping the casino and talk about my rust adventures. He asked me to tell him where to start programming and what project to do. I am going to video call with him to go to get to hello world but wrote this guide so he could follow and repeat.

Terminal:

Most code in the world does not have a graphical user interface (gui). Such artwork is expensive to make and costly to run. Instead we work with the bare minimum in the terminal.
The terminal is a text interface where you can have powerful control of your computer. There are things that dont have any buttons, but everything has logic in terminal.
I am on Mac and use Zsh as my native terminal, I think you have Command Prompt but it will depend on you version of windows. I highly recommend you study your shell sooner than later. It can make life way easier.
I know some windows but can not give you too much advice. No matter what coding language you want to use you are likely going to want to use bash to automate stuff. I used bash to automate the login of my 6 Old School RuneScape accounts. Took me several minutes every play session, turned into one click with some light coding.

Interactive Development Environment:

Choose an IDE and look at all the options. check all the settings. I use VSCode. Look for extensions, configure them all. They can be incredibly powerful for your understanding of what your code is doing and what the borrow checker wants from you.
Don't stick with VSCode, different IDEs provide vastly different experiences per language. Always shop around.

Cargo:

Cargo is rusts package manager. It can get code from the internet, compile and ship your code, do versioning and most of the tedious stuff of coding.
Learn cargo well this is how you take your code and do things with it.
Do beware that cargo allows you to download arbitrary code from the internet. Don't go downloading sketchy shit and getting pwnd. But for big projects absolutely go ahead this community is awesome.
There is no need to enable git versioning with cargo, but it would be cool should you lose your computer your code would still be in the cloud and retrievable.

Rust's Borrow Checker:

The borrow checker is apart of the rust compiler, the thing that turns your text into computer code. It is going to be the bane of your existence should you stay with rust.
The borrow checker prints to terminal a highly detailed and specific commentary on your code explaining what it will not accept as valid rust code.
Read everything it says, often the borrow checker will explicitly tell you what to do to solve the problem. This will be most of your workflow, making the borrow checker happy. Once the rules of the borrow checker are followed, your program will run flawlessly. It may not make sense logically, But in a memory sense, the point of rust, safe.
If you use the borrow checker in the IDE you may get some hyperlinks that let you jump through your code to debug way faster than scrolling.
Do be warned though that there are bugs in rust, but none that beginners like us have to worry about.

Shop around for languages:

Rust is making me learn computer science and bring me really close to flipping bits and I think that is really cool.
Python is quick and easy to use. You can get competent in a month.
Python is 100x slower than rust but waaaaay more fun to use.
Rust is faster, but takes 10x longer to write at this point. But when I have completed something it is safe, fast, and as exact as I could want something.
If I wanted a job right away I would learn JavaScript, JS runs 90% of the internet and the majority of the jobs. But it's 29 years old, slow and unsafe. Its ecosystem is huge. Memes are bad. No dommy borrow checker.
C++ is the parent language to Rust. Haskell is also a big influencing factor. I would learn some about these languages and why rust 'fixes' them.

Bacon:

One tool I find so helpful in rust is called Bacon. It will automaticly rerun your program whenever you change the code. So instead of having to manually ask the computer to run it can always be running on the side, along with great displays of the borrow checker and clippy text recommendations.
Must have use it every time I VSCode open.

Clippy:

\\ this is a linter whose implications I have yet to understand see comments below!
Clippy is the formatter cargo uses to proofread and restyle your code. Very convenient when you get all sweaty and shit out some code from your stream of conscious then you can type one command and make it look intentional again.

Configure VSCode to support rust by downloading these extensions:

• Code Runner, for cargo support.
• CodeLLDB, for rust debugging support.
• crates, for better searching of third party crates from crates.io.
• Error Lens, highlights errors inline - very useful.
• Even Better TOML, syntax support for TOML manifest.
• Prettier, auto formats your code so its consistent with common style guides.
• Rust-analyzer, MANDATORY - this provides rust syntax support for VSCode.
• Rust Syntax, this enhances rust-analyzer.

Setup Hotkeys:

Setup a hotkey in vscode to run rust in its cargo run format with code runner.
This is rather complicated and cost me way to much time, but go to extentsions, Code-Runner. Click Code-Runner: Executor Map Edit Settings.json.
look for the rust entry in the field

{ "code-runner.executorMap": { ~ "rust": sadness_and_lies, ~ }, "code-runner.clearPreviousOutput": true, "editor.rulers": [120], } Should be: "rust": "cargo run # $fileName", 

Then go to hotkeys in the VSCode settings and search code-runner.
Edit the entry:
Run Code
code-runner.run
To your specifed hotkey. This will make VSCode use cargo to run your code. This hotkey should also run other languages should you do so.
Bacon must be added to your path. This may be difficult on windows I dont know but I challenge you to EITHER:
Make a profile in your terminal that has Bacon in the path (I failed to do this but got Zsh to run a Bash script that brings bacon to path on startup),
or make a macro/hotkey in vscode to bring them to path (this is what I did in VSCode only becasue I dont understand Zsh profiles enough... hours wasted)
oh by the way Bacon can be installed with 'cargo install bacon' and is found in root/.cargo/bin
My solution to VSCode was to add

[ { "key": "cmd+b", "command": "workbench.action.terminal.sendSequence", "args": { "text": "bacon\u000D" } }, { "key": "alt+b", "command": "workbench.action.terminal.sendSequence", "args": { "text": "export PATH=$PATH:/Users/work/.cargo/bin\u000D" } }, ] 

to the keybindings.json
this lets me opt+b to bring cargo tools to Zsh path,
then cmd+b to start bacon.
Note that this will bring any cargo shell tools to path. One nice one I like is Exa, a file viewer like Dir but better
I know this was a wall of text but once you can do this 👍

Well that's it. Thanks for reading. Thanks for sharing everything I know is from the internet.

YouTube Video Script for 9Hp, from Neobandit about Accidental Rares/ Alt-ID items/ Smuggled items.
1, Mining and Smithing Flier- These were passed out by npcs for a short period of time during January 2019 to advertise the Mining and Smithing rework and could have been read for a short summary of the rework. Now when attempting to read the flyer it will vanish leaving behind the message "Too late - it's gone!" (so dont read them now).Once the fanatics were removed with the release of the Mining & Smithing Rework, the flyers became unobtainable. The flyer cannot be traded via the Grand Exchange however may be traded in-person. According to the wiki, Jagex does not recognize the mining and smithing fliers as discontinued Items. However, they are unobtainable now and treated as discontinued items by some collectors.
2. Rare Raw Shrimp, Bones, and Pot of Flour- These rare/smuggled items were obtainable from the Tutorial Island before an update that made them become unobtainable on July 2008. Although they share the same name and appearance as their common counterparts, there are ways of telling them apart. Firstly, unlike their common counterparts, these items cannot be traded via the grand exchange but only via player to player trades. Secondly, the rare pot of flour has a slightly different appearance than normal, has a high alch value of 6 coins rather than 8, and does not have an "empty pot" option like normal. The rare bones have a different examine text than common bones; The rare bones examine text says, "these bones are for burying!", while the common bones examine text has a period rather than an exclamation point. Since these items have different item IDs from their common counterparts, they do not stack in bank or when noted. Because of this, players with the rare variation of bones, raw shrimp, or pot of flour will often show 2 noted forms of the item to prove its authenticity, one stack of the rare variation and one stack of commons. This practice of showing two stacks of items that share the same name/icon is done with most of the non ge rare and smuggled items to prove authenticity.
3. Rare Bronze gauntlets - Rune gauntlets- According to the wiki, bronze-rune gauntlets were originally obtained as a reward from the Fist of Guthix minigame. They were changed in the 10 August 2015 update to drop from monsters; On 7 January 2019, the mining and smithing update did not convert some of the gauntlets into metal item tokens, thus creating two forms of bronze through rune gauntlets. Just like the tutorial island items, they share the same name and appearance as their common counterparts and cannot be traded via the grand exchange but only via player-to-player trades. Since these items have different item IDs from their common counterparts, they do not stack in bank or when noted. The rare variations of the gauntlets also have different high alch values in the price checker. The normal rune gauntlets have a high alch value of 500 coins, while the rare variation has a high alch value of 4500 coins. The normal steel gauntlets have a high alch value of 100 coins while its rare variation has a high alch value of 600 coins. Also, the rare variations have the examine text: "i have to keep my hands safe!" instead of the normal examine text: "a pair of rune/steel gauntlets." The rare bronze/iron/mithril/addy gauntlets are much rarer than the rare rune/steel gauntlets.
4. Rare burnt lobster-The rare variation of the burnt lobster was accidently created on 4 March 2013, after an update that made burnt food stack in your inventory. According to the wiki, two different types of burnt lobster exist, mostly due to the way the aforementioned update was handled. When the update hit, all noted versions of burnt items were updated, losing the functionality of notes and getting the same inventory icon as their normal counterpart. Visually, these items cannot be distinguished; however, while the common burnt lobster later received an "Eat" option, the previously noted items did not. The rarity of the previously noted type of burnt lobsters comes from the fact that not many people had large quantities of burnt lobsters in their inventory when the update occurred.
5. Magical Bunny, Lamb, and Chick eggs- These magical eggs could be won from Treasure Hunter on 17 April 2014. They can be activated to turn the player into a baby bunny, lamb, or chick respectively for a brief duration, and then the egg will be consumed. It can also be eaten to heal 200 life points. As a discontinued item, it is now considered a tradeable rare. It was made available again during the "Second Chance" Treasure Hunter Promotion from 2 April to 7 April 2015. You can only trade this with other players, not in the grand exchange
6. Diamond Jubilee foods- The Diamond Jubilee was a street party in Varrock prepared for Queen Elizabeth II that began on 29 May 2012 and ended on 13 June 2012. In celebration, Varrock square had been filled with tables for a Jubilee feast, special commemorative stalls and Jubilee themed decorations. Among these commemorative stalls was one called "Exotic foods," owned by Bang Ersenmash and found on the east side of the square. This stall sold 5 exclusive British-themed foods: cream teas, coronation chicken sandwiches, fish 'n' chips, steak and kidney pies, and full breakfasts. On 13 June 2012, most of these foods were removed from game. However, some of these food items have somehow remained in game after the update and are now traded amongst players.
Rare POF Animals
7. Araxyte Spider- Araxyte spiders are a breed of spiders that may be raised on the player-owned farm. One can be obtained by checking an araxyte spider egg or by trading with another player. There are 6 types of Araxyte spider pairs (male/female): the 1-trait non-shiny, 2 trait non-shiny, 3 trait non-shiny, 1 trait shiny!, 2 trait shiny!, and 3 trait shiny! pairs. The names and traits of the spiders do not matter since they can be rerolled, although some traits cannot. The 1 trait shiny! araxyte spider pair can still be obtained by checking an araxyte spider egg, a very rare drop from Araxxi. However, all other Araxyte spider pairs are discontinued following an update on 29 July 2019, which caused Araxyte spiders no longer being able to be bred from existing Araxyte spiders.
8. Two-trait Radiant Animals- According to word of mouth, when Player-owned farm was relatively new, there was a bug that caused the second trait to be missing from the bred animals. Since the Radiant trait can only be in the 3rd trait slot and usually slots aren't skipped, many players who are unaware of the bug will say that having a 2t Radiant animal is impossible. However, they do exist. Although animals without the radiant trait can also have the second trait missing, Radiant Animals can easily be shown to have its second trait missing by glossing over them with the mouse to see they only have two-traits. Some 2t Radiant animals are rarer than others, since more prized animals would have most likely been kept while more common animals would be traded for beans before the bug was discovered.
Special mentions: "Glitched" or "smuggled" items.
(Tutorial Island items are considered smuggled)
9. New Varrock Cabbage- This cabbage exists in an area of RuneScape known as New Varrock. Items within New Varrock cannot be taken outside the area..usually. Some players have found a way to "smuggle" these items outside the area via a glitch of some kind, allowing them to trade these items with other players anywhere. These items cannot be traded on the grand exchange but can be traded player to player. Now concerning the cabbage, it shares the same name and appearance as normal cabbage. however, it does have a small sword icon next to its name in unnoted form. Since there is also a draynor cabbage that shares the same name and appearance as normal cabbage as well, players must show 3 stacks of cabbage in noted form to prove the authenticity of the New Varrock Cabbage.
10. Zemomark, zombie cowhide, chocolate cake, stew, beer, doogle leaves, Strength potion(4)- These items have also been smuggled out of New varrock. The zemomark is the currency of New Varrock and the zombie cowhide is a drop recieved from killing a zombie cow in New Varrock. Chocolate cake and Stew can be bought from Gertrude in New Varrock for 140 and 170 Zemomarks respectively. They heal the same amount as their normal counterparts, but unlike the normal versions they stack in inventory. Beer is bought from the bartender at the Blue Moon Inn in New Varrock for 2 zemomarks. Doogle leaves are bought from Xuan's Fresh Produce in New Varrock for 100 zemomarks each. Unlike regular doogle leaves, Doogle leaves (new Varrock) are tradeable and can be noted. Strength potion (4) can be created by the apothecary by using a limpwurt root and red spiders' eggs at the cost of 5 zemomarks. The two ingredients are obtained from looting the chest in the south-east corner of New Varrock, which is accessible after completing Dimension of Disaster: Demon Slayer. This chest can only be looted once, and no more ingredients can be obtained in New Varrock afterwards. Only 3 strength potion (4)s can be obtained per account, and sipping the potion produces 1, 2, and 3 dose smuggled variants.
11. Zombie outfit, Black robes- The Zombie outfit and Black robes set can be bought from Thessalia in New Varrock. The complete zombie set consists of Zombie Mask, Zombie Shirt, Zombie trousers, Zombie gloves and Zombie Boots. The complete Black robes set consists of Black hood, Black robe (top), and Black robe (bottoms).
Unbankable "smuggled" items- These smuggled items cannot be banked and are usually held in the inventory of collectors permanently or traded to alts.
12. Mystery gift- Among the smuggled New Varrock items is the prized mystery gift, which is opened to receive a chromatic Party Hat. However, unlike the other new varrock items, the mystery gift cannot be banked. Opening this Mystery Gift in the main game will produce an Alt-id Chromatic Party Hat that doesn't stack with the normal one.
13. Bandages (Castle Wars)- This is a tradeable item smuggled out of the Castle wars minigame. Bandages are an item used to heal combatants in the Castle Wars minigame. They can be found on the table in the start room. Bandages restore 10% of a player's life points (rounded down) and restore 30% of a player's run energy. Usually, people are hesitant to call smuggled items discontinued because it is not known whether or not the glitch has been patched. However, the wiki mentions that the glitch allowing the smuggling of items out of Castle wars has been patched. According to the wiki, around 2007, bandages were smuggled from Castle Wars and used in the Duel arena when food and drinks were disabled. They allowed the abuser to heal because the bandages were not counted as prohibited consumables and gave them an advantage. Bandages can come in noted/unnoted forms.
14. Ogleroot- This is a tradeable item smuggled out of the Vinesweeper minigame. The wiki mentions that the glitch allowing the smuggling of items out of Vinesweeper has been patched. Therefore, Ogleroot is a smuggled item that is considered a discontinued item with confidence. Ogleroots are bought from Farmer Blinkin in the Vinesweeper minigame, by right-clicking Farmer Blinkin. They can also be found while digging with a spade during the minigame. Ogleroots are fed to rabbits to make the rabbits disappear, stopping the rabbits from eating the seeds that are found. When ogleroots are fed to the rabbits, players will receive 30 Hunter experience points. Usually, players cannot take ogleroots out of the minigame area, but players will be given 10 coins per Ogleroot when they leave. There is a YouTube video that shows how the glitch was done: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mstRCLE-hhg).
15. Calcified fungus, Fungal algea, Fungal spore, Timber fungus, Rotten fungus (Croseus)- These 4 fungi (and rotten fungus) have been smuggled out of the Croseus Boss instance on the day of release (which was on 27 September 2021) using the waterfiend familiar or a simple teleport/interface stall. These fungi differ from their normal counterparts in three ways. Primarily, the normal variation of the four fungus are gatherable outside the boss instance, while the smuggled fungi could only be obtained within the instance. Secondly, the smuggled fungi have a "Rot fungus" option in the inventory while the normal fungi do not when outside the boss instance. Lastly, the smuggled fungi are not available in the grand exchange and cannot be banked. However, these 4 smuggled fungi were available in the Grand exchange up until 4 October 2021. (The rotton fungus is still available on the grand exchange as of today). There are two forms of the smuggled fungi, noted and unnoted forms. They could be noted even though they are unbankable because they were available in the grand exchange for a short period of time. Since noted smuggled Croesus fungus can no longer be noted, they are considered discontinued. (unnoted smuggled Croesus fungus can still be smuggled out as of today) Noted smuggled Croesus fungi do not have the "rot fungus" option and can be shown alongside their noted common counterparts to showcase them in the trade window. Unnoted smuggled Croesus fungi cannot be distinguished from their common counterparts easily in the trade window, which makes the noted version more desirable.
16. Any New Rares to come- There are many other discontinued/smuggled items rumored to still be tradeable in-game that we have yet to see.
Items we have found since writing this script
1. Weapon Store key from the old shield of arrav quest,
2. smuggled, unbankable, tradeable Trouble Brewing items (8 set)
3. non-shiny Royal Dragon that is 2t radiant. (Double Glitched Dragon)
4. Alt-id coin (from item reclaim)
5. Smuggled, unbankable, untradeable, yet transferrable Fist of Guthix runes

I have found the following J-Mod comments on the thread Woodcutting could use a T90 Hatchet, it only makes sense... right?

Currently I am using Sheets to track an online event. In order to do this, I pull data from OSRS Highscores using
=IMPORTHTML("http://secure.runescape.com/m=hiscore\_oldschool/hiscorepersonal.ws?user1=RSNusername","table",0)
I need this function to work but with a twist, in that I need RSNusername not to be hard coded on the forumula, but pulled from a cell.
The end result should be reflective of
=IMPORTHTML("http://secure.runescape.com/m=hiscore\_oldschool/hiscorepersonal.ws?user1=A1","table",0) A1=RSNusername
Does anyone know how i can do this? I need to do this without scripting

Having the crystal shard drop rate from certain skilling activities not scale based on the difficulty to obtain resources makes no sense.
Teaks and magic both having a 1/80 chance to get a shard per log doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. I think it should scale either equally (so increasing the shard drop rate for magic trees to maybe ~1/20) so the shards per hour are similar, or make it so more difficult to gather resources grant more shards per hour.
Same thing with Iron and Adamantite both having a 1/127 chance
Generally, I think there should be more options to obtain shards in a lower intensity way (Crystal fish?, Chance of a shard when using farming patches in Prif scaling off crop level, shards from chins/new hunter creatures) as well as buffing existing methods (Agility, Woodcutting, Mining, Superiors giving more shards).
From a lore perspective:

Seren, shattered herself into countless shards to ensure the elves could live on without her. Everything in Prifddinas benefits from this and contain tiny pieces of Seren, whether that's the trees, the rocks in the Trahaern mine, or various other activities where you receive them.

This to me seems to conflict with the best shards per hour being thieving elves but I am not requesting a change to the current best method, just simply asking if there can be more varied and lower intensity methods especially ones that align perfectly with the lore.
I am not making any suggestions for buffing high intensity methods like Gauntlet or Zulcano as they would of course need to be changed accordingly.

What I come back to is, you've earned this access to Prifddinas, you've done the hard work, you've finally got this crystal tool seed, and you're still stuck needing to get endless amounts of shards to get the benefit out of it - Mod Kieren

I think Mod Kieren makes a good point, completing SotE is an accomplishment and you should not have to grind so hard for shards to charge your items which you just grinded for. Taking a look at Varlamore, Sunfire Splinters (similar in functionality to Crystal Shards) can be acquired from hunter and completing wave 1 for the Fortis Colosseum (as well as other waves, but guaranteed 80 of wave 1.)

It's important to clarify that developing or using scripts to automate gameplay, such as a script for the Hefin Agility Course in "RuneScape," is against the game's terms of service and can result in severe consequences including permanent bans. Jagex, the developer of "RuneScape," strictly prohibits the use of third-party software to interact with the game in a way that provides an unfair advantage. Instead of discussing how to create such scripts, let's focus on the ethical and legal implications of using automation in games.
TLDR: Starting location is right next to where you start just to the left with the compass facing true north. Here's the code bitches: https://pastebin.com/ksE3rAr6
This script is absolutely undetectable and requires pyautogui.

Ethical Considerations of Automation in Gaming

**1. Fair Play

• Automation scripts disrupt the level playing field for all players. While some may gain an advantage by accumulating resources or completing courses faster, it detracts from the fair challenge and reward system that games like "RuneScape" are built upon.

**2. Community Impact

• The use of scripts can harm the game’s economy and player interactions, potentially leading to inflated prices and an unfair competitive edge that can demoralize players who adhere to the rules.

**3. Risk of Account Termination

• Using scripts can lead to account bans, losing all progress and investments in the game, which can be significant given the long-term nature of MMORPGs like "RuneScape."

Legal Implications

**1. Violation of Terms of Service

• Automating gameplay is typically a violation of the game's terms of service, a legal agreement between the player and the company. Breaking this agreement can lead to legal actions or permanent bans from the service.

**2. Potential for Legal Action

• In severe cases, especially when automation is used for profit or causes significant disruption, legal action could be pursued by the game developers.

Healthy Gaming Practices

**1. Self-Regulation

• Players should set personal limits to manage playtime effectively, ensuring that gaming remains a recreational activity and does not interfere with personal responsibilities or wellbeing.

**2. Community Engagement

• Participating in community activities without the use of unfair tools can enhance enjoyment and fulfillment from the game.

**3. Supporting Fair Play

• By adhering to game rules and encouraging others to do the same, players contribute to a healthier gaming environment where achievements are genuinely earned.

Conclusion

While the automation of tasks like the Hefin Agility Course may seem like a shortcut to success in "RuneScape," it undermines the integrity of the game and can have serious consequences. It is always best to enjoy games within the guidelines set by developers to ensure a fair, fun, and rewarding experience for everyone involved.

Is using a custom AHK script that does not interact with the game allowed? Specifically using it to quickly swap between open RS windows while AFK mining and using ALT+1 to alert.
Eg. I press 1 mouse button to switch to the right 1 RS window on the taskbar, press a different mouse button to go to the left 1 RS window on the task bar.
NOTE: There is no interaction with the Runescape client, other than switching to it (this is instead of moving mouse manually to the taskbar and opening the next/previous one, or using alt+tab manually)
