I just don't know whether I am doing it economically. I kind of RS gold blindly picking on quest paths and leveling the best I could up. I would have LOVED a more complete, included crash course on what and what it means and where I could change things. It's very overwhelming but I am loving my time so much --only sucks that the majority of my gameplay is reading through wikis and viewing youtube videos hoping to figure out what the hell Im supposed to be doing.

I'll reply to every point separately:You're playing with RS3. The keys in the treasure hunter screen can be used to get random prizes, if you do not like the decoration, you can flip it into oddments. Oddments are a money used in the oddment store, which sells various xp products, decorative items, and a couple of neat trinkets, without becoming overly complicated. The charity are a unique event. Them will be hosted by jagex in a while, you will slowly accrue the tokens as you fight or skill. (they will not always be known as charity tokensthey are known as a different kind of token compared to what the event is, but they work exactly the same). You turn them in for rewards.

Yes, real players are currently purchasing your oak shortbows. The only artificial markets will be the stores. The Grand Exchange is entirely player driven. Clicking on any ability on your abilities tab will start the guide for it, out there you can see what degree requirements you have to do particular things (by way of example, you can pickpocket men and women, and steal from bread stalls, at level 1 thieving.) From there, with the assistance of google or even the rs wiki, you can find out where thieving activities for your level are located. Best I can suggest is using the wiki for skills you do not understand yet, because RuneScape does not clearly explain them to you.

In the end, efficacy doesn't matter. So long as you're progressing, doing making your way, and what interests you, you're fine. As for where you ought to be at 35 hours of playtime, hard for me to tell, once I began, RuneScape was much different than it is now, and also the rate of progress was different. I will continue to google and wiki the hell out of everything. It's been fun, I just agree with your post that matters would be much better if I had my hand held through the UI and the fundamentals. I'll get there eventually. I am presuming RuneScape becomes social as you level up--it is pretty lonely right now at the start.

I've honestly tried to enjoy RS3. If its the artwork style but I feel as though idk where I'm idk. The amount of (at least me) non-user friendly menus makes it such a mess and very confusing on how the UI works to where id instead use the heritage one just so that I have some kind of sequence. With that I could never learn the new battle as the UI was annoying to use. I already know what I'm doing in rs3 and in osrs its. I do love the toolbelt and the quality of RuneScape gold buy life matters. The xp bypassing though does bother me as I just feel as though u can only bypass the grind more or less so everything feels significantly less rewarding. Because its more easy to understand person who played back in the day to return to it to play OSRS.
