• Dungeoneering Guide Fixes and Updates: The response to the Ultimate Skill Guide to Dungeoneering has been incredible so far! I'm glad everyone likes it so much. I've responded to feedback and comments about mistakes and made a number of fixes to the guide. I also made some changes due to minor changes made by Jagex, such as the ability of the bonecrusher to handle bones from Hunter, and added many more links to summary tables for easier navigation.

• Dungeoneering "Cheat Sheet": The Dungeoneering guide contains a huge amount of information, but it's on many pages. Experienced players need to have key reference materials and tables at hand when going through dungeon floors, so I've created a special Dungeoneering "Cheat Sheet". This page contains a summary of essential information from the rest of the guide, extra short-form tips for bosses, and key reference tables. It also has dozens of links for fast reference to other parts of the guide. Enjoy!

• All RuneScoop Content Now Free: I have made a major realignment in the operation of RuneScoop, with the most significant change being that all content is now free for viewing by everyone. For a full explanation of the reasons why I have done this, along with a special message to current RuneScoop members, please see this entry on my RuneScoop Soapbox blog (it was too long to post here). With this change, all readers can now access the following:

  • The full Skill Optimization Guide, showing you how to efficiently train Crafting, Fishing and other skills based on current item costs.

  • The complete Beastopedia, including full monster combat descriptions and drop logs.

  • The RuneScoop Monster Secrets series, currently containing guides to mithril dragons, waterfiends and aberrant spectre cannoning.

  • The full complement of efficiency mini-guides.

  I am maintaining the concept of membership on RuneScoop, but it will now change focus from one of unlocking content to providing support for the site and gaining special recognition and benefits; this is reflected in the membership page.

• New Navigation Box: There is now a navigation box, similar to the one on the left-hand part of this page, on all content pages on RuneScoop. Hopefully this will let all of you move between parts of the site more easily. The box automatically links to the non-member or member pages depending on which part of the site you are on.

• The Ultimate Skill Guide - Dungeoneering: While many of you have been "no-lifing" RuneScape's newest skill, I have instead been "no-lifing" a new guide to it. And just as Dungeoneering is unlike any skill we've ever seen, so is the Ultimate Skill Guide to Dungeoneering. It has a depth of coverage, detail and level of quality that I believe is unparalleled in the world of RuneScape guides. A few highlights:

  • Almost 200 pages and well over 100,000 words of original content cover every Dungeoneering subject.

  • Provides a full explanation of important concepts like prestige, complexity levels, difficulty settings, binding and much more.

  • Full explanations of dungeon structures, rooms, doors and contents.

  • Overview and details of the entire dungeon raid process, including advice on teamwork, leading a party, resource gathering, prayer management and lots, lots more.

  • Strategy and trade-off discussions and advice.

  • Pages describing all of the monsters in Daemonheim.

  • Complete analyses and combat techniques and advice for every boss.

  • Full guides to solving all challenge / puzzle rooms.

  • Reference tables for all resources and skills.

  • Special tables for handling problems with insufficient skill levels on doors/puzzles.

This guide represents over a month of full-time work. I hope you enjoy it!
