Something I recently learned, as clan did chaos elemental event:

You can teleport through the wildy using obelisks. You land at a random location, but with a few tries you'll reach you destination much faster.

There are 5 or 6 of them shattered through the wildy, they look like little temples to me. You just click on one of the pillars, says "activate obelisk" I think, and you will get randomly teleported to one of the other obelisks. You might need a few tries to get to the point you want to go to though.

If I find a link to where the obelisks exactly are, I'll put it here.

That even though I've had 99 mage for about 6 months, I've NEVER used ancient magic to teleport into the wild. 8O %-(

Did you know...

that inventory slots are placed just far enough away to right click on an item and click drop, then right click again on the item just below it (without moving the mouse)?

Wow. So many of these things I genuinely didn't know. Pretty cool stuff. :P

Did you know that fire is hot? (No way! The things you learn from RS.)

Ok seriously. Most people probably know this one but meh...

Did you know that there's a man sitting in the tree next to Draynor bank? Just try cutting it down...

Did you know that the best way to get flour is not from a mill? If you go to the Sinclair mansion, there is a barrel of flour in the kitchen.

Did you ever notice how very small all the trees in RuneScape are? I mean, the only one of any respectable size is the great tree in the tree gnome stronghold, if you think about it... (Although yes, that one is rather big in a wide way even if it were in the real world.)

Did you know that the Ring of Charos can be used in many other places than the usual money saving ones? Such as in quests for minor extra dialogue. For example, in 'The Chosen Commander', you get to charm that miller guy, who hides Sigmund's base, into wanting to let you in. (Though he still refuses on the grounds that Sigmund would kill him.)

Actually, I would be interested in knowing other uses for the ring of Charos, no matter how minor. Does anyone know any other little-known ones? (I love that ring. Never take it off. :] )

Ring of charos is also used as a negotiative tool with the dwarf that banks your gold ore near Keldagrim.
He will take less of your ore as payment, for banking for you.

Did you know you can check when you are ready to visit Juna? Yup, open up your Quest Guide and click on Tears of Guthix and it will tell you when either in hours, days or today to get your tears.

Happy Trails ;)

When using the Abyss to runecraft, you do not need a tiara or talisman to make any of the runes.
I always thought you needed one or the other to craft runes and only recently found this out by mistake when I took the wrong tiara and was still able to make runes.
The tiara and tailsman are only used to "tele" to the altars, and are not used in the actual crafting of runes. It took me two years to figure that out! #-o

Go to the Draynor Village musican, look at the music appreciator listening to him. Now position the camera so it's facing the back of her head and place your cursor on the very top of her head. When you see "2 options", right click and choose "Examine invisble". You receive the message "I am invisble!" in your chat box. (This also works if you face the appreciator and place the cursor right on her face.)

Other invisible sightings:

-one from the musican near Shantay Pass.
-one from the musican in Lumbridge.
-one from the musican in Varrock.

A ring of visibility doesn't reveal the invisible NPC.

And the May 19 Patch Notes had the statement, "Removed an invisible character who didn't do anything."

Someone's having fun with this. :)

Inspired by Beef's post:
I learned after 89 frikkin levels of summoning that when you open the pouch menu to make pouches (at an obelisk), you can just click on the bottom of the scroll bar to automatically jump down to the higher level pouch choices and NOT have to scroll all the way down to get there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
