[edit] Welcome

.

The picture on the left is a nice photograph of me on a recent Falcon hunting trip in the Woodlands. Unfortunately that is the only place where you can be photographed with a falcon. The action shot below, shows a falcon returning to the glove after just missing a Dark Kebbit. Some more photographs of me are included in later sections on this page. Note that Miw is not my RS name.

[edit] Wiki Activities

After finding this site, i started supporting the wiki by making minor additions to already existing pages. After a while, it seemed a good idea to make a proper account and learn more about wiki formatting. A user page is a great way to do this, as it motivates people to make a half decent page and learn about wiki editing details without damaging the main wiki. As a newby to wiki technology, i attempted some pretty extreme template coding for the Combat formula template, which shows the expressive power and the constraints of wiki formatted text. It almost provides the capabilities of server side scripts. The template still has some problems (cannot be included in tables and cannot be floated).

In my view the RS wiki also has not yet defined its target audience. It seems that there is a quiet assumption that the audience is limited to RuneScape players. As i generally find it difficult to write without knowing my audience my Sandbox contains an attempt to identify other types of people that might seek more information on RuneScape. My Sandbox also tries to identify the information needs from players. Not all of these are covered by the current type of content.

In my slayer log you can find a list of my slayer assignments and some the more notable drops. If you are working on a house floorplan (a highly recommended activity) it could be useful to have a look at my House floorplan.

[edit] Skipping a combat level

I jumped from 112 combat to 114 combat, because i do not like 113 as a number. So how does this work? First you have to get you combat level close to the next level as shown in the following table:

Combat level
	85		93
	73		1
	92	112.97	112
	91
	87	95.75	95
	99	101.6	101

So, even though the combat level is 112, the fcombat ormula calculates to 112.98 (which is pretty close to 113). The idea is to use one monster kill to increment several combat skills in one giant leveling step. The monster of choice is a ghast which gives 30 prayer experience when a player kills it. Using controlled combat and making sure all combat skills are within 30 experience points from levelling, the one Ghast kill will increase strength, attack, defence and prayer. Adding one to those skills gives the following combat table:

Combat level
	86		93
	74		1
	93	114.12	114
	92
	87	96.25	96
	99	102.1	102

Hence, the one monster kill yields two combat levels! The only problem is to make sure that there is no hitpoints gain and to prevent an unintentional combat skill level increase.
