Hi, it's Vince with Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time you use this towel! It's like a chamois! It's like a towel! It's like a sponge. A regular towel doesn't work wet - this works wet or dry.

'''Bandits''' are attackable [[NPC]]s that can be found at various locations. At the [[Kharidian Desert Bandit Camp]] the bandits will attack anyone who wears ANY [[Saradomin]] or [[Zamorak]] clothing or accessories, as they are supporters of [[Zaros]]. Because of this, many people use this to their advantage while training and therefore earn a high amount of [[experience]] with little effort. They can be pickpocketed at level 53 [[Thieving]], but it's recommended to pickpocket them at [[Pollnivneach]], because any bandit at [[Bandit Camp (Kharidian Desert)|Bandit Camp]] is often killed for combat experience. Pickpocketing a bandit at the [[Bandit Camp (Kharidian Desert)|Bandit Camp]] may result in the bandit getting killed by another player while you steal from it.
 
 
When players are near them wearing a Saradomin item, they will shout "Time to die, Saradominist filth!" Likewise, they will declare "Prepare to suffer, Zamorakian scum!" when they spot a player with Zamorak items.
 
When players attack their fellows, they simply exclaim "You chose the wrong place to start trouble!" and attack you in a similar manner to the [[Al-Kharid Warriors]].
 
 
It is possible for a player to achieve '''up to''' 60 000 - 70 000 experience per hour, depending on your Combat stats.
 
 
A good strategy for staying there longer is to bring some noted food items with you and restock by simply visiting the nearby [[general store]], selling your noted food and buying it back in normal form. [[Bunyip]]s are also a good option to take with you. Take a few summoning potions (4) and [[bunyip]] pouches with you.
 
Many players also use a [[Guthan's set]] to heal themselves when low on health.
 
 
Another method of training is to wear excellent prayer boosting Armour and use protect from melee. The Bandits drop the [[Ranarr]]s required in a Prayer Restore potion and the chances of breaking even with this method is fairly high. In most events, the runes collected should even out the cost difference between Ranarrs and prayer potions. This method allows for fairly casual training as prayer drains slowly and the player is not losing hitpoints. Also, if this method proves accurate, there are no repair expenses due to [[Barrows equipment]] degrading. However, Guthan's set allows you to stay here training for long periods of time - because the cost to repair the whole set is about 300k, and will last about 15 hours, most players can earn enough gold to repair the set in less than 2 hours so this is still a viable way of training.
 
 
[[File:Picking a Bandit's pocket may result in this message in your chatbox.png|Picking a Bandit's pocket may result in this message showing up in your chatbox]]
 
 
Another method to train is to take [[Saradomin Godsword]] as a [[Saradomin]] item and fight Bandits. However, this method is slow since Godswords hit very slow but Saradomin Godsword can heal you up and boost your prayer in order to survive and also use [[Prayer]] for boosts, using the drops as a selling object can also be a good way to make a profit/buy potions to boost your leveling.

Hi, it's Vince with Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time you use this towel! It's like a chamois! It's like a towel! It's like a sponge. A regular towel doesn't work wet - this works wet or dry. This is for the house, the car, the boat, the RV! Shamwow holds twenty times its weight in liquid. Look at this! It just does the work! Why do you want to work twice as hard? It doesn't drip, doesn't make a mess. You wring it out, wash it in the washing machine. It is made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff. You can cut it in half, use one as a bath mat, drain your dishes with the other one, use one as a towel. Olympic divers, they use it as a towel. Look at that! Completely dry! Put a wet sweater, roll it up, it dries your sweaters. Here's some cola, wine, coffee and pet stains. Not only is the damage going to be on top - there's your mildew. That is going to smell! See that? The most absorbing. We're going to do this in real time! Look at this! Put it on the spill, turn it over! Without even putting any pressure, fifty percent of the cola right there. You follow me, camera guy? The other fifty percent, the color starts to come up. No other towel's going to do that! It acts like a vacuum! And look at this - virtually dry on the bottom! See what I'm telling you? Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time!
