Runescape Game Play

Runescapes Distractions and Diversions includes Penguin Hide and seek, Balthazar Beauregard's Big Top Bonanza and Shooting Star, I have already covered the last 2 so here we have the Penguin Hide and seek guide, if you can call it a guide that is.

I have a goal to get all my stats to 80, I now only have hunter and runecrafting to go, having recently managed it with construction, smithing and mining and getting a total level of 2200 in the process, hunter is easy to level I just haven't trained it because of the amount of nubs at chins but I will level that shortly, I have a way of dealing with the anti social nubs so watch out.

Runecrafting is a different matter, I cant say I enjoy Runecrafting, I don't hate it but I am not its greatest fan, I have days I can train it happily and others I cant, I never train things if I don't want unless there is a good reason so it has fallen behind a bit.

I have never much bothered with penguin spotting, just spying them If I come across one on my travels, which I have quite often, trading in I noticed that you get a lot of xp per penguin, I opted for runecrafting xp because it is my least trained skill and as already mentioned one of my under 80's, the cash option was never considered, I do not know how much you get but xp is worth so much more than cash.

I have heard of a clan channel that goes around spotting penguins, I looked on the Runescape Official forums for information and found the world 60 penguin chat, at first I was reluctant to join and just used the forum post to find some with mixed success, I eventually signed on and there were a whole list of people hunting the penguins, there were regular updates of their whereabouts and people requesting locations, within half an hour I had found 9 penguins, the last, a desert penguin was a bit tricky but eventually found him pretending to be a cactus.

I don't like to post clan chats or RSOF links because they are subject to change but a search on the RSOF should find them.

The world 60 penguin hunter clan chat is very helpful, there is more than just people hunting penguins and reporting them, there are players staying with the penguin trapping them or directing people to them, these are players who like to play Runescape just standing around to help others, what a great load of people.

A few rules are to try and not walk through people who have the penguin trapped, this will release them, always shut doors if they are trapped in a building, hardly rules but will help other players who arrive after you, there are lots of help on the RSOF take time to read it and it will make hunting fun.

And most important say thank you to the players trapping the penguins and the guys on the chat channel for helping you get your xp, they are doing it instead of training their skills just for you and other players.

It is fun hunting penguins and the xp is great it will take 4 weeks hunting penguins to get 77 runecrafting, then I can make bloods as a bit of motivation to get level 80.
