random events guide
If you see one of these monsters DONT WORRY, they are only for the purpose for beating autoers! There is still an auto log in effect! If you are completely inactive these random event should not appear and you will be logged off!
The Types of Events - The Two Catagories
There are two types of events.
The first type is to replace the 5 minute rule, and therefore are universal (Not confined to one skill). Apparently this is just a test to see if your still at the computer and not using an autominer.
The second type appears whilst using a certain skill. So far the only confirmed ones are for Fishing, Mining, Thieving, Woodcutting, Prayer, and Combat. These types of monsters are labled with (Attack) and have a drop list underneath them. The levels of the attacking monsters are…
Level 156 for the Highest Levels (Level 90+)?
Level 120 for High Levels (Level 60-89)?
Level 79 for Medium Levels
Level 47 for Medium-Low Levels
Level 28 for Low Levels
Level 14 for the Lowest Levels
The Universal Events - What do they do?
Old Man - “Greetings
Gets angry if you ignore him, but if you talk to him he will give you anything from a Kebab to a HALF KEY. If you ignore him he will teleport you to Lumbridge or a numerous amount of other places. Here is a list of things he can drop (From Least to Most Rare):
Kebab
Spinach Roll
20gp
650gp
Sapphire
Emerald
Ruby

They will attack you and hit 1 and 2’s on you. Just run away from this, because you cannot attack them.

Appears randomly and rewards you with a magic lamp. If you ignore him he will scatter your items on the ground or teleport you. When you rub the lamp you will get experience to a skill of your choice.

It appears to grow out of the ground. If you don’t pick the “Strange Fruit” from it, it will attack you then possibly poison you. The Strange Fruit replenishes 10% of your energy.
Tangle Vines
These vines will grow very quickly out of the floor and spread to a few squares around you. Any monster or player that gets caught in these vines are a prone to taking damage, however this can be prevented if you do not move. The vines will dissapear after about 30 seconds if you do not move.
Drunken Dwarf ” *Hello der
Appears out of nowhere. If you talk to him he will give you a kebab and a beer. If you ignore him, he will eventually attack. Like a swarm you cannot attack him back.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How do I make a Random Event Appear?
You will have a better chance of getting an Event if you are performing a certain skill. Thieving, Fishing, and Mining seem to get those most often. There is NO set time limit or technique to make sure a random event will appear for sure. It is possible for a zombie to attack you on the first bone you bury or your axe head fly off the first tree you hit.
Q. What’s the formula for how much XP I get from the Genie?
CODE
XP Given=(Current Level)*10
Q. What Happens if I leave my computer? Will I die?
There’s is still a 1 minute auto-log if you are completely inactive. This doesn’t mean that Random Events won’t happen to you. Just to be sure you should ALWAYS log off when you leave.
