A1. When will I stop burning xxx ( top )

A2. What is the best place to START training ranged? ( top )

As with combat - train on low level monsters in places where there are manyof them. In free world there are several places with lvl 2 rats (8xp), but thebest places exists in members - Gnome Village and Battle Field - with lvl 1 gnomes(also 8xp).Sure, higherlevel monsters will give you more experience, but will also take much more timeto kill and will have greater defense.

A3. Can I get my armor trimmed by a player? ( top )

Players can't trim armor, the only way to get trimmed or God armor is to do TreasureTrails. Treasure Trails are a rare drop that monsters drop on Member Worlds, they give a series of clues and after you do all the clues you get a prize.Since trimmed items have the same stats as basic armor they can be used on freeservers. The only way for a free player to get trimmed armor is to buy it from amember.

A4. How the hell do I leave Shilo Village? ( top )

Lol, I had the same problem when doing Legends, I even used the service of the cartguy and ran back from Brimhaven... but it's simple: go through the wooden gatewith Undead Ones, than through the next gate, and Search the broken cart.You'llbe teleported outside...

A5. What exactly is the reward in the Legends quest? ( top )

After completion of the Legends quest (congratulations...) you'll be given achance of increasing experience in 4 selected skills (all are available and youcan pick any more than once.) You will receive experience according to thefollowing simple formula:

Example: in a skill on level 66 you'd receive 10,050 experience points. Notbad, and you can do it 4 times...

A6 . What rings can one enchant and what do they do?

Enchanted Sapphire Ring - Ring of Recoil
Deals 10% of the damage inflicted on the wearer back at their attacker. (After 40 damage has been dealt in this way the Ring is destroyed.)

Enchanted Emerald Ring - Ring of Dueling
When activated it teleports the wearer to the Duel Arena. (8 uses and then the Ring is destroyed, has the same restrictions as the teleport spellsi.e. doesn't work past level 20 wilderness etc.)

Enchanted Ruby Ring - Ring of Forging
Increases the chance of successfully smelting Iron Ore. (100% success rate, 140 uses.)

Enchanted Diamond Ring - Ring of Life
When the wearer takes damage which causes their hits to falls below 10%, but which doesn't actually kill them, they are automatically teleported to Lumbridge and the ring is destroyed. (Has the same restrictions as the amulet of glory teleportsi.e. doesn't work past level 30 wilderness, doesn't work in the dueling arena etc)

Enchanted Dragonstone Ring - Ring of Wealth
The wearer has a greater chance of getting a rare item drop when they kill a monster.
