¤¤¤ Shooting Star Landing Sites • M/M and PGT ¤ Post 1.07 ¤¤¤

Morytania and Mos'le Harmless is an advanced region. It does not take as long to scout as some regions and stars typically don't crowd much. Although there are some weak monsters in the region, food is not recommended because it can be spoiled by ghasts. In Aid of the Myreque and Cabin Fever are required for full access to the region.

Piscatoris, Gnome Stronghold, and Tirannwn is an advanced region recommended for near-expert hunters. There is no combat in the region if traditional teleports are used. Roving Elves is required for full access; Mourning's End Part I is highly recommended for convenience.

¤¤¤ Shooting Star Landing Sites * Wilderness * Post 1.10 ***

The Wilderness is the most advanced and most dangerous region in Runescape. Players in Star Find are never allowed to attack one another, but players outside of our chat may kill players. We recommend travelling with nothing but a pickaxe, but players may choose to arm themselves if they wish. Do not carry items you cannot afford to lose; protection prayers are not an automatic defense and can be disabled in the wilderness. Stardust is lost on death but is always easily replaceable. Star Find is not responsible for any lost items. Please beware of possible luring.
