Get it quick... Edit

What would be the fastest way to earn this?

The way I can see is to bring a melee weapon with a controlled style, runes and a bow/cbow and ammo, along with logs, a tinderbox and fish on a slayer task which drops bones.

This should get ten skills.

-Attack

-Defence

-Strength

-Constitution

-Slayer

-Prayer

-Magic

-Ranged

-Firemaking

-Cooking

Don't forget Herblore with Herbicide and Summoning as well Ciphrius Kane 18:05, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

Good point. With those you could leave the logs and fish (herbs can of course be cleaned manually if you lack the Dung req). If you get a gem drop it can be cut into bolt tips, adding Crafting to the list. Morte369 18:22, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

My daily routine with this would be: kill Bork with my whip on controlled for combat and slayer xp (5 skills), bury his bones (6), do my farm run (magic, farm, woodcutting - 9), and buy daily battlestaves to make air battlestaves (10) to be done! Storm Bard 21:36, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

--Wouldnt Korasi's sword make this a tad easier? =]

From what I can see this can be done on one herb run in the right configuration. A five plot herb run can get you Farming, Magic if on Lunar, Agility if you use Trollheim tablets and cross the agility shortcuts, and Herblore if you clean the herbs. Take a whip and a crossbow and you can get Attack, Strength, Defence, Constitution with a controlled attack and switch to the crossbow for quick Range. Bury the bones that drop and you got 10 skills trained in 6 minutes. It can't be this easy. Darrik Ash ^HS _AL 19:49, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Account potential... Edit

Consider this on a summoning tank or pure o.O

Check this out... as I look at the icon for the auras, all of them but Jack of trades has the top left corner reddened. Jack of trades has both o the top corners reddened. Anyone else think this could mean something? All of the auras that were on sale were one dot, hence most likely meaning that they were of lower quality than Jack of trades, which was not on sale. Could the dots be a quality ranking system? will there be sick-crazy four dot auras that cost like a million points?24.14.6.8 21:35, June 29, 2011 (UTC)Sly Winds

That's a good catch, and I think it's a good guess! After all, the way that the gain rate of loyalty points increases, after a year people will have like 150,000 points saved up with nothing to buy, so I think it likely these are only the low end of the rewards. Storm Bard 03:08, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Since they said that there would be rewards up to tier 4, and Jack of Trades was only a tier 2 reward, it seems pretty obvious to me that the corners represent the tiers.

When will players have enough points to buy this? There really is alot I would like to know about.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

This seems like an excellent aura to purchase but I'm a little apprehensive about it. Like someone said, this was a tier 2 aura. Imagine what tier 4 auras would bring. I want to save my points towards those tier 4 auras in the future. Itsawaffle 20:04, October 8, 2011 (UTC)

Exp RewardsEdit

Wanted to start a log of exp gained from the reward campared to level, cause I'm pretty sure that's the only correlation (seems to be the way all exp rewards are calculated, and as you'll see by my first data, it's highly doubtful the amount of exp gained in the 10 skills has anything to do with amount of reward exp)

Doing my 10 skills, I maybe got 1k exp total? Just attacked with the 3 styles, ranged, magic, cleaned an herb, burned a log, summoned a bird, and buried some bones. Used the reward for Summoning.

Level - 91 | exp - 8199

Feel free to add on, an equation and comprehensive chart eventually would be lovely, so the more data the better.

~Arkenemyste7

Look at the main page.... it has equations, calculators and suggested fast free method of 10 skills.

Multiple reward tomes? Edit

What happens if you complete one day, don't collect reward for that day, then complete again the next day? Does he give 2 tomes at claim time? Anyone willing to/has tested this? Godel 03:47, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

I will test this the next two day sand post, itd be useful to collect like 400k exp at once lol... -99FTW Nbates

I went ahead and tested this myself. You may not activate the aura if Xuan has a reward for you to claim. Godel 04:14, October 1, 2011 (UTC)

What if you claim the book but don't use it, is it bankable? I might test this later, my aura is still recharging. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 13:45, October 1, 2011 (UTC)

It is bankable. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 23:26, October 1, 2011 (UTC)

But you can't activate aura while you have a book banked. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 23:25, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Claiming reward xp from Penguin Hide and Seek does not count into gained xp in certain skill.

Inconsistency Edit

it says it is activated for 3 hours and recharges for 24 hours. However, the remaining time when I deactivate the aura does not add to the time needed to recharge it, unlike what is stated on the aura page. --Void Knight 10:24, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

This is probably cause that's what the knowledge base say. The knowledge base is wrong (something which I already reported a while ago but has yet to be fixed. The correct values would be 3 hours and 21 hours. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 23:19, October 22, 2011 (UTC)

It's not 21 hours. It's 24 hours from the time the aura was activated. I'm looking at my aura right now, and it has a recharge time of 23 hours and 45 minutes. It just starts counting down from when you first activated the aura, rather than when it was deactivated. {{u|160.39.40.165|07:46, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

That's how all auras work. They have an active time and a recharge time. For jack of trades those are 3 hours and 21 hours. If you prematurely end the aura, as is often done for jack of trades, then the remaining active time is added to the recharge time. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 01:09, November 10, 2011 (UTC)

Even Easier with Toolbelt Edit

Now with the toolbelt, the easiest way to do it to me seems to be:

1. Run north of Xuna to guards.
2. Activate aura.
3. Pickpocket guard. (Thieving, 1)
4. Attack with Korasi's Sword. (Attack, Strength, Constitution, Defence, 2-5)
5. Use Korasi Sword's special attack. (Magic, 6)
6. Bury guard's bones. (Prayer, 7)
7. Cut two logs. (Woodcutting, 8)
8. Burn on of the logs. (Firemaking, 9)
9. Fletch the other log (Fletching, 10)

—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.106.53.46 (talk) on 18:59, December 6, 2011 (UTC).

That's just as easy with or without the toolbelt. Only difference is that in one case you need to have a hatchet, tinderbox and knife in your toolbelt, and in the other case in your inventory. Personally I don't even think we need an example of how to get the 10 skills. Most of the time you're not even near Xuna when your aura has recharged. I myself have this pattern: Pickpocket a guard in Edgeville (Thieving); Kill Bork (Attack, Defence, Hitpoints, Strength, Slayer); Teleport with Ardougne cloak and pick poison ivy (Farming); cut Bork's gems at the bank (Crafting); Collect daily essence and mine some extra at Cromperty's (Mining), Teleport with wicked hood to nature altar and craft runes (Runecrafting). I later cash in the reward when I get my battlestaves. ^T_H^A_R^K_O^N 22:33, December 8, 2011 (UTC)

Also, with the rake in the inventory, it's also easy to rake the tree patch right by varrock castle. So if someone can't do one of those, they can replace it with raking the tree patch. (Just saying) Graahk 19:44, December 11, 2011 (UTC)
