The wilderness is divided by a very long fence. Whether that fence is left open by players can determine if penguins can ST in the traps below. If it is on the opposite side of the fence, it is much less likely to do so.

8.9 Creating Better Spying Spots


Level 0.5

There seems to be a level between the ground floor (where you walk) and the next floor (upstairs). Pow and I call this level 0.5. (c)

Level 0.5 (c) is mapped out pretty similar to the ground level. However, that level also has some accessible squares where you can perform actions over them.

Rivers and other bodies of water seem to be considered free spaces on level 0.5, which is why implings can fly over them. Hillsides seem to also be free spaces on level 0.5. (c) It might even be why the ghost can walk on water and over the hills and cannot be trapped/herded!

Fences and some short objects (tables, stools) still block on level 0.5, but allow for certain actions to be taken over them. Those actions include tele-other, safe spot for ranged/magic, and spying a penguin .

It is why fenced in areas can make decent traps (take the Rellekka Cow pen as a stellar example)!


The Snowball Test

The way to check whether level 0.5 is free is to toss a snowball (from a holiday event) at another player over an obstacle. If you hit that person, you can spy a penguin in the spot that other person is standing!

Why does this matter? It allows for you to direct players to a spy spot where there is no risk of trampling! Especially useful for some areas. Also, it negates the need for some quests to be completed.


.•´¯`•._.•´¯`•.


It is not known whether a gnome ball works in the same fashion. I am guessing that it will work in the same fashion It will be one of my first research items on my to do list. If it does, it will be much easier to find better spying spots for world 60 on reset night. ~ Bill

The following section is currently a work in progress. Much more testing is needed! If you think you have a spot like those below, let me know!

Gnome stronghold

:- SE of Eagle's Peak lodestone - West of river, North of terror birds - no need to enter Gnome Stronghold

Barb Outpost

:- Otto's house - Waterfall house raft - they don't open gate at raft

WWM

:- East of Camelot castle - ridge on far west part of WWM - 1 person trap, can spy from below

Karamja

:- Brimhaven charter ship dock - eastern shore of peninsula north of horseshoe gold mine - No attacking npcs / distance.

Ape Atoll

:- By fairy ring - North of there- Monkey Madness not needed for outside town penguin

Ape Atoll

:- By fairy ring - South of there - Monkey Madness not needed for inside town penguin

Mort Myre

:- South of Polypore dungeon at divination spot - Start of the winding path south of swamp - No need to complete Priest in Peril

Sophanem

:- Menaphos side of river, far S.E - Far N.W - No quest needed

Lletya

:- Trees just south of entrance - At entrance - no quest needed

Entrana

:- south of Dark Wizard tower - Entrana docks - no need to go to the isle


========

Needs testing:

Desert - any spot outside the desert (likeliest Lumby Swamp) - spy a desert penguin ~ Bill
