Introducing The Lava Maze Lure

When you go p-king, do you go to rune rocks in level 46 wilderness? If you have then you know how thrilling it gets! It's thrilling because you often find yourself involved in do-or-die situations! This post though is about discussing a new luring method at the lava maze. Take a look at the map on the right;

The Lava Maze

By the way, to get things cleared, it does not involve luring holiday rare items. Though, if you do it right and on busy worlds, you should get a consistent amount of kills, and that adds up.

Do you see the Blue spot on the map?? That is where all, or most of the action starts at. The valuable rune ores to be mined (right at the blue spot) attracts plenty of pkers on the lookout for a miner. This spot can be often populated, especially on busy worlds like world 3 or 1 (the most competitive ones though). This lure requires you to have at least on friend, or your other account to be standing there.

Combat level requirement : Works at a wide range of combat levels. If lower combat, consider bringing some magic. Also, this trick works slightly better at low & mid combat levels (combat 20 to 70)

So bring an account on that green dot with fancy armor. You can have him wear almost any fancy armor, be it full rune in gold or trimmed or golden green dragon hide. My favorite would be fancy (g) or (t) mage robes. Maging is easier and more fun. With magic you can bind people over the river, attack them, you can telegrab food or items on the ground... think about it!

So your job is is simple in itself. You will simply stand there and serve as an 'apetizer' for people that are on the other side of the river. Your fancy armor will draw their attention. If it doesn't, then mage them, or range them!  (depending on what you're using). Trust me, a good bunch of people will be raging while you are wasting their food and will just go find you provided they have a weapon with slashing weapon.

If they are a pure, or if they have low defence, they will most likely run through the lava maze, not wanting to get hit by the dark knights -- and they hit pretty hard on 1 def by the way. And let me tell you ; by the time they get to successfully slash the webs (while getting attacked by knights) waste food, run back and forth the maze trying to find the path leading to you, they will be half dead already. Imagine someone coming to you that is half dead and no run left -- it's a dream scenario. But let me tell you that many players loose judgement when motivated by greed. On top of that, the webs will start closing soon, and they will need to re-slash them, if they even make it there.

But what if the person does get to you and have full food because he/she has good defence? Then fight that person till you die on your appetizer account, and log right back in on a second account that you will have brought there. You should be able to finish the job.

Another method to lure                                             
Also another way to do it (works better if you've got good defence), would be to find someone, have him attack you and then run all the way to where the green dot on the map is. Then, turn on him for a fight. If you have half food left, and some good pvp skills then you should be comfortable enough to take him out on your second account waiting there.

Some new Guides comming up!

A few months ago, back in 2009, I had started to write down on paper a small bunch of guides on pures and their training, as well as other Wilderness / PvP tips and guides. But these were lost partially in my room.

Well I recently cleaned up my room and have found those guides back as well as some motivation (thanks to someone in rs pushing me to publish them) to rewrite them from paper to word processor.

When I jumped into the world of making pures 5-6 years ago (roughly weeks after I discovered rs), I did have some tips here and there from inexperienced people - but not solid advice to do it successfully. After all, creating and training a new account is a huge investment in time. I learned it the hard way. With more than 4-5 different accounts (and counting), as well as several years of training, seeing and pking, I will shortly be starting a series of posts sharing my personal thoughts on pvp/wilderness tactics, most efficient pure types and setups, pking spots and more. Coming to a blog near you... Stay tuned!
