I am new here at wikipedia so comment kindly first. Now lets start with Runescape, you can go to the website by going to www.runescape.com. Heres some info and loin into runescape bcuz it rocks.

Exploring Lumbridge During the tutorial, you should become relatively familiar with how to play RuneScape, but it's a good idea to get your bearings in Lumbridge before heading off into the wider lands.

Lumbridge contains many things to do. From here you can start to improve on those skills that you were taught to use in the tutorial: visit the shops, windmill and castle, kill some goblins or start a quest.

Be sure to talk to the tutors and the Lumbridge Sage who are scattered around Lumbridge. The tutors are there to help players advance their skills, and are able to provide players with information even if they are not new to the game. Click here to find out more about the tutors.

If you can't see them, the tutors and the Lumbridge Sage can be identified by the 'question mark' symbol on the minimap.

Navigating RuneScape

RuneScape is a massive world, and it's pretty easy to get lost if you're new. To help you find your way around, you'll probably find the world map a useful tool. Simply click on the globe in the top-right of the game screen to open a map centred on your location. You can read more about the world map by clicking here.

Some important locations also feature signposts. You can use these to find out what cities or towns are nearby, along with some basic directions to get there. To read a signpost, simply click on it.

Warnings

A common warning As you travel about RuneScape you'll undoubtedly discover several places that can be hazardous, when you enter these a warning will pop up, usually looking like the warning to the right. After you have visited these locations several times you will be able to turn the warnings off. If you'd prefer to have them turned on, you can visit the Doomsayer in Lumbridge.

Quests

There are different levels of quests in RuneScape - Novice, Intermediate, Experienced and Master.

To find the starting location of possible quests to begin, look for the Quest Start symbol on your minimap. You can read more about how to use the different maps in RuneScape by clicking here.

To start you off, there are a selection of quests you can do in and around Lumbridge. We recommend the following: Cook's Assistant Start by speaking to the cook in the kitchen of Lumbridge Castle, which is on the ground floor. The Restless Ghost Start by speaking to the priest in the church opposite Lumbridge Castle. Sheep Shearer Start by speaking to the farmer in the house north-west of the sheep pen in the north of Lumbridge. Rune Mysteries Start by speaking to the Duke in Lumbridge Castle on the first floor.

For a list of all of the novice quests available in RuneScape please see the Novice Quest listings.

When you've completed a couple, you might like to look through your Quest Journal for more to do. There are well over a hundred quests in RuneScape, so you might like to order them by difficulty, your progress, or whether they are free or members' quests. You can do this using the drop-down menu at the top of the quest list, and you can remove any quests you cannot start by checking the 'Filter' option.

To show you where the quests begin, you can right-click any quest in the list and select 'Show on the world map'. This will load the world map and centre it on the quest start, so you can quickly determine where you need to go.

Skills

When you first arrive in Lumbridge you may find that you need to obtain various items before you can start training your skills. To get yourself used to the skills used in RuneScape we recommend that you start by training the following skills:

Woodcutting

Once you get to Lumbridge you can immediately start to train this skill because the only item you'll require is a Woodcutting hatchet, which you can get by talking the Woodcutting tutor north of the Lumbridge Guide. This skill is useful because it enables you to obtain a ready supply of logs that you can burn to cook food, or fletch into bows and arrows. For more information on this skill please see our Woodcutting Guide.

Firemaking

This is one of the easiest skills to start training. All you need is a tinderbox and some logs. You can also get a tinderbox from the Woodcutting tutor just north of Lumbridge Castle. Firemaking is useful for cooking meat or fish when you are not near a Cooking range. For more information on this skill please see our Firemaking Guide.

Cooking

In RuneScape, food heals you when you eat it, so Cooking is a useful skill to provide yourself with food to heal those lost Hitpoints. The chicken pen to the north-west of the general store in Lumbridge will provide you with raw meat to start building this skill. For more information about the Cooking skill please see the Cooking Guide.

Fishing

This skill gives you a method of obtaining food other than by killing an animal and cooking its meat. It is an essential skill throughout the game, as fish can be caught in most waterways and along much of the coastline. For more information on this skill please see our Fishing Guide.

Mining and Smithing

Mining allows you to extract different materials from certain rocks. You can smelt these ores into bars and smith the bars into useful items. For a beginner, these two skills can be useful because from a low level you can make useful items to help you in battle. It's a good idea to make some armour to protect yourself against attacks when building up your combat skills. See the Mining Guide or the Smithing Guide for further information on these skills.

Combat

Melee combat is divided into many skills - Attack, Defence, Hitpoints and Strength. You can start to train these skills as soon as you have a weapon. You can get a training sword and training shield by talking to the Melee Tutor in the long training hall north of Lumbridge Castle. Your first enemies will probably be giant rats, giant spiders and goblins, which you can find all around Lumbridge. By improving your combat skills you can kill larger monsters more easily, and receive more valuable rewards. For more information about combat please see our Combat Guide.

For more information about all the skills available to train in RuneScape please see the Skills section of the Manual.

Other Players

Playing an online role-playing game like RuneScape will require you to communicate and sometimes rely on the help of others in order for you to complete your tasks. Some players make use of this opportunity by trading with others and creating alliances to build up a network of friends that they can rely on in-game to help them. For more information about the advantages of having friends in RuneScape please see our Controls guides on Friends and Trading.

The Jagex Clan Cup 2009

Over the last three months, RuneScape’s clan community has been battling it out to determine which clans truly are the best. Blood was spilt, tools were shattered and the ancient war cry of “Lol, pwned u nub” could be heard across all of Gielinor. After the dust settled, three clans stood head and shoulders above the rest as Jagex Clan Cup 2009 champions.

There were three cups up for grabs: The Combat Cup, The Skilling Cup and the all-rounder’s favourite, The Combined Cup. Around 25,000 hardened players signed up for the competition, and during eight weeks of knock-out battles we saw over 100 clans dispatched, meaning that, come the final stages, the pressure was definitely on!

The Combat Cup final saw “The Titans” facing off against the mighty “Damage Incorporated”. As expected, it was a really exciting fight, and well-matched, with fantastic organisation from both clans. Ultimately, the Combat Cup final saw The Titans take the spoils, winning with 53 members standing from a 100 vs. 100 start, and the kudos for being the clan you’d least like to meet on a dark night. Congratulations, Titans - you really deserve it!

Next up was the Combined Cup, with “God Hunters” and “Wicked Fury” battling to the death. Both teams clearly meant business, but it was Wicked Fury who had the upper hand in the end, winning the Stealing Creation game 28,215 to God Hunters’ 16,845, and being duly crowned the Combined Clan Cup Champions of 2009. Wicked Fury, we salute you!

If that wasn’t enough, we then witnessed a hard-fought battle between 84 clans in total to decide the winners of the Skilling Clan Cup. All of the clans that took part skilled their arms off, but it was “Divination” who took the crown, with an impressive average of 71,146 XP an hour in a combination of Fishing and Woodcutting. “The Experts” came in second with 67,551 XP an hour, and “Malkavian Scourge” finished third with 66,694 XP an hour. Well done, Divination - you really earned it!

So, those results in brief:

Jagex Cup 2009 Combat Cup Champions: The Titans Jagex Cup 2009 Combined Cup Champions: Wicked Fury Jagex Cup 2009 Skilling Cup Champions: Divination We’d like to thank every one of you that took part in the Jagex Clan Cup 2009. Together, you made the competition a great success, and have left us here at Jagex all fired up and ready for the next Jagex Clan Cup!

If you’d like to take part in the next Jagex Clan Cup, all you need to do is get onto the forums and sign up to a clan (or create your own, of course!), register it with the Community Management team and then get practising, as we seem to be developing an insatiable appetite for battle, skills, and watching helpless players getting owned :)
