Coton that didn't make sense to me..
I say do some quests use any lamps/books you get, do the security stronghold.
Skill till you get lamps.
It'll take some time, but be worth it.
lol coton said that you don't need 25 defence to do soulwars. You can do soulwars at level 3, with 1 in everything. All you have to do is use bandages on your teammates.
you can use zeal on a level 1 skill.... how do you think skillers get slayer up while being 3 combat? how do you think HP pures are made? ive done both and i know for a fact you can use zeal on a level 1 skill, it just gives little xp.
