Talk:Familiarisation

misc
I don't know how to add them to the page so i'll post my rewards for the summoning box.

7 Unicorn Horns, 108 Pots of flour. 15:18, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

The hint section should be organised in alphabetic order.

I don't know how to do that but it's needed.

As a reward I got around 140 raw rabbit meat and 8 marigolds which gave me around 80k when I sold them. 86.144.86.223 16:18, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Protect Pl0x?
People editing it with nonsence. ScionCrush 15:45, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Well, its people trying to edit it as much as they can, it is new, you got to remember that. I tryed adding my image at first, then some reason it did not work, but now it dos, but BIG lol Eexon 15:48, February 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * There're unregistered users trying to advertise a clan chat about locating obelisk location. We reverted these few times but the user still put it back in more place. The IP addresses in question is added to RuneScape:Counter Vandalism Unit. From now I would stop improving this article until the vandalism stopped or this page have been semi-protected --Willwill 16:12, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Semiprotected for 5 days. 17:09, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Ok good
Ok good, hope you sort it out, and everything gets sorted, always happens with new things, just block there IPs is a good idea, i hate clan members lol Eexon 16:18, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed
I do agree in blocking this page, because all unregistered user's are trying to spam all the clan chats, i tryed to upload a picture too, but it wont work.

What about soul wars?
"This is the first minigame ever that you get to play outside of your main character, although you can play outside of your main character in certain quests. "

you can become a ghost in soul wars O_O 17:22, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

A ghost of your own character... 76.121.103.189 19:34, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

I think it would be more Mobilising armies.. since you dont play as yourself but as an army.

Can't find world -.-
Would it be useful to post times of when it is active on each world? As it disappears and appears without delay, so the times would always be the same? 18:48, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

New song
A new song, A Familiar Feeling is unlocked during the D&D, I think it should be mentioned.85.157.136.136 20:22, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Rewards
Just now I recieved 24 spider carcases and 38 vampire dust. This was roughly equivalent to 60000gp on the grand exchange. I had collected 60 points and my summoning level was 60... I therefore believe that the reward is either 1000 times your level or the number of points you got in any type of secondary item. Anyone else get this?

About the charm rewards, it has 100% chance of tripling charms and lasts for up to 40 mins depending on how many shards you got. It warns you at 5 mins and 1 min then, when it runs out it says: Your luck with charms has run out.

Item rewards
How do you choose the option of getting items as rewards? He only gives me the option of a blessing.

Also, is it just me or does run energy drain ridiculously quickly (and restore incredibly slowly) during playtime? 22:30, February 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, the run energy thing happens to me. Even though I have 88 Agility and was not carrying anything, my run energy went down really fast and the restore rate was really slow. Mr Moo Cow99 22:34, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Mine drained roughly 5% per second or, in other words, every time it dropepd down. It may pertain to what familiar you are, I was an ice titan.
 * What familiar you are only determines what the first two other familiars that are draining your energy are. -- 03:04, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Timing and Schedule, unanswered questions
Mamabear47 09:41, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * How long does pix rest?
 * How often is a new obilisk active?
 * How long does it stay active?
 * Are all worlds on the same schedule? Obilisks in "waves" like stars or like trees and times are staggered?
 * Are all worlds the same location or different?
 * When is reset? A week after you last played or at weekly reset like circus and penguins?

* I'm guessing he rests for 100 minutes. * Every two hours a new obelisk is activated. * Twenty minutes. * I just checked two worlds, one with an active obelisk, and one without; I'm guessing the latter. * Most likely different locations. * I played it yesterday, found a new obelisk today, and it said "Come back in 6 days". So it doesn't reset weekly with the other two. Zickhel00 15:02, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

when he is resting, he rests on all worlds I believe, at least the twenty or so i checked at the same time. Tortilliachp 15:21, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Fix please?
This article has taken too much wording from the Game Guide, it's almost identical! I don't know too much about it, but can someone just fix it?? -- 15:47, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's mainly because it's new, as we figure more things out about it, it will be updated I'm sure. -- 22:24, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Formula for timings
At the moment, the timings are 60 x 40 = 2400secs = 40mins

So, you're dividing 2400 by 60 to make 40.

If you divide the 40 by 60 (60 x 40 = 2400 = 40mins)

40 / 60 = 0.666666 or 2/3.

So finally, the simple code is,

(Number of shards) x (2/3) = amount of mins.

60 x 2/3 = 40.

Comment on my Talk Page if there is anything wrong.

working in seconds uses a real quantity to calculate, rather than fractions of a minute which is not a common measure of time. This is a specific situation different from most others, as our common timekeeping system does not follow the decimal system. As such, fractions should not be used, rather common divisions of time (minute, hour, day, second, tenth of second, milisecond, nanosecond etc.)Tortilliachp 17:20, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Training Summoning
So I haven't been there yet (getting pics, mostly!) Is this game worth the bother hnting down? I don't want to wait in Taverley for 2 hours or hunt the different obelisks down, so how do I get the ... ohhhhh, so that's why the clans were spamming so hard. Interesting. Just like the penguin trappers, you need teamwork to make it pay. (Way more teamwork then Penguin Hide & Seek, apparently.) Can teamwork be used inside the minigame? --TheLastWordSword 19:20, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not really a team game. You can get help from other people to find the obelisk, but they can't influence the game for you in any way.  I managed to get 210 crimsons at waterfiends in 37 minutes...I would say that pays.  -- 22:25, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Secondary ingredient rewards
Lets keep track and see if we can get a nice chart up

lvl 91 summoning  51 shards    100 wolf bones and 369 pots of flour  --Degenret01 19:57, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

formula edited again, minutes = ceiling (shards x 0.66) : what's wrong with English?
40 seconds per shard. Don't over-complicate things unneccessarily?

now leave a workable English formula alone. why the inacurate decimals, why the fixation of including a "ceiling", why the unneccessary mumbo-jumbo? This formula is not rocket-science, so leave it alone.
