Runescape Tips And Secrets

Below is the news that Runescape provided on July 29th.

The thing that I liked best about this update was that you can now withdraw all but one from a particular item. This means that the item will retain its spot in the bank, which is great for those that have a structured bank.

 
Over the last couple of weeks, many players have been using the Item Lending system to lend out items for profit. That’s not really what we designed the system to achieve; it was intended to be a simple way for players to once again share objects with their friends. Since some players seem so keen to rent out their valuable items, though, we’ve adjusted the system to let them do it safely.

Instead of ‘using’ your items on the borrowing player, you should send them a trade request. This will open the trade screen, where you can right-click on an item and choose to ‘Lend’ it.

Once you’ve offered the item for loan, it will be visible to both players in the trade offer screen, within the ‘Loan’ box. A button will appear underneath the item, allowing you to choose the duration of the loan. Your trade-partner can then offer to pay you or lend you another item in return. Of course, you can still offer to lend an item without receiving anything in return.

Item Lending does not affect your trade limits if you are lending or receiving an item for nothing in return. Your trade limits will be affected, however, if something is offered in return for the lent item.

Do remember: If you borrow an item ‘until logout’, its owner might log out or take it back at ANY time, so you should be cautious about paying for this kind of service.
In other news…

We’ve been busy again, fixing a number of graphical or minor bugs that you may have spotted. Read on for a few of the more noticeable changes included in this update.

There have been a few additions and modifications to the bank this week; most notably, we have added the ‘Withdraw All-But-1′ option, so you can leave placeholder items with ease. The bank’s scrollbar speed has also been increased, so you can get to your items faster.

On a slightly different note, you can now retrieve your lent items from the wandering bankers that are typically found outside minigames like Fist of Guthix or Bounty Hunter.

Players can now take the Summoning skillcape into Bounty Hunter. It seems this latest skillcape wasn’t permitted, so Bounty Hunter has been adjusted to bring it in line.

When playing in HD fullscreen mode, you now have the option to hide the chatbox. The tabs below it will still flash when you’ve been sent a message by a friend or someone requests to trade with you etc, so you shouldn’t miss anything!
