Alright everyone, here are a few things that some of you may or may not know about that will help make you the best player and member you can possibly be.
 
Ancient Mace
Purpose: The special attack gives a boost to your pray based on how much damage is dealt. For example if you're 45 pray and spec a 19 then you'll have 64/45 prayer. This effect carries over to F2P worlds and Clan Wars. You should hop online an hour before we mass to give yourself time to get a good spec (15+ damage), use the duel arena or kill yourself to restore spec. If you have overheads you should have this item.
Requirements:
Goblin Diplomacy > The Lost Tribe > Death to the Dorgeshuun
The Giant Dwarf
Druidic Ritual > Digsite
Another Slice of H.A.M.
 
Anchovy Pizza Delays
Boasting a core member base of veteran F2P pkers and clanners I'm sure you guys are all well aware of the pizza > swordfish food trick. However you may not know that you can actually do pizza > pizza > swordfish in the same number of ticks it takes to do pizza.

Mastering this should be on the top of our priorities. Just be aware that full pizzas and half pizzas have a slightly different delay. Also if you eat for example 4 pizza slices and a swordfish in a row you're gonna have to wait longer than you normally would before you can attack again.
 
Agility
Purpose: Fairly self explanatory, the higher your agility, the faster your run energy restores. High agility is such a huge asset to have in any F2P fight, especially now with the "improved" route-finding changes made in RS07 there are only two major factors in staying alive: tanking and dragging - you can't drag if you have no energy. I understand its a bit of a pain to train but even if you just dedicate an hour a day to rooftop agility for a week you'll get 1-50 in np. You'll thank me later for this, trust me.
Recommended: I'd love to see you all looking fit as fuck with 50+, but even 33 from Monkey Madness or 35 for Horror from the Deep is a noticeable improvement over 1.
 
Magic, Ancients and Mystic Might
Theres a lot to cover with Magic so I'm going to break this down into a couple of sections.
Binding and Tanking
For those that don't know, your magic level makes up 70% of your mage defence, the other 30% being your defence level. Meaning the higher your mage, the higher your chances of catching a bind/causing an opponent to splash, simple right? Well as an added bonus you should also learn to make use of the magic prayers like Mystic Might when you're being piled. A 15% magic boost may not sound like a big deal but if you're 70 mage Mystic Might gives you the equivalent to 80 mage. I mentioned you can't drag when you're out of energy, well you definitely can't drag when you're bound so keep this in mind and try and work it into your every day warring repertoire. If you're 44 pray theres no reason not to get 45 as you will never gain a combat level from an odd prayer level.

Returning
With the removal of the login timer the fastest way to return to the majority of fight locs in the wilderness is to switch to a P2P PVP world (there are bank chests next to every spawn point) and use one of the 4 ancient teleport spells, or as an alternative to 84 tele you can use a Games Necklace and tele to the corporeal beast, they are as follows:
Lvl 78: Dareeyak - [2 Laws, 2 Airs, 3 Fires] - Ruins West of Bandit Camp (watch out for the Archeological Expert boss)
Lvl 84 - Carrallangar - [2 Laws, 2 Souls] - Graveyard of Shadows in 19 wilderness. OR - Games Necklace - Corporeal Beast Cave at the NE corner of graves.
Lvl 90 - Annakarl - [2 Laws, 2 Bloods] - GDZ
Lvl 96 - Ghorrock - [2 Laws, 8 Waters] - Ice plateau in the north west corner of the wilderness.
If you're not binding you should be on ancients. Don't forget mage pots boost 4 levels and can be used for these teles - don't ever use a wizard's mind bomb as it drops your attack and strength.
 STOCK UP ON MITHRIL AXES. FOR MOSSIES RETURN, ANY FIGHT AROUND THAT (MOSSIES,NORTH MOSSIES,SPIDERVILLAGE, VENTS,POND,SINGLESTRIP/MULTI LINE)
Edge Respawn
Purpose: Returning, when the login timer was removed and the PVP bank chests added this lost a lot of its usefulness but its still going to shave seconds off of your return time, infinitely useful when returning via Canoe or portals.
Requirements: 5M cash, pay the witch in the guards house in Edgeville.
 
Canoe
Purpose: Returning. Mostly for fights east of mossies, north of ruins and around Chaos Dwarves or as an alternative for people who don't have 90 magic for GDZ teleport. Far more effective when used in conjunction with Edge Respawn.
Requirements: 57 Woodcutting
 
UPDATE 19/12/2014:
Rune Pouches
Purpose: Allows you to store up to 16K of 3 different types of runes (for example bloods, waters and deaths for ice barrage) in 1 inventory slot. 
Requirements: 1,200,000 Bounty Hunter reward points, or 24 Mysterious Emblems. The pouch isn't tradable but the emblems are, they sell on http://forums.zybez....sterious-emblemfor 40-45K each so you can pick up a rune pouch for a little under 1M. If you're rich enough to mage consistently in preps then you're rich enough for a rune pouch.
 
Ancient Teleport Tabs
Purpose: Allows you to use ancient teleports without the required level, also saves you 1 inventory slot as opposed to using the runes for the spell itself. These are a MUST HAVE for returning. The tabs you need are:
Annakarl (90 tele/GDZ)
Carrallangar (84 tele/Graves) - OR you can use a Games Necklace if you haven't completed DT/as a cheaper alternative to the tabs.
Ghorrock (96 tele/44 ports NE of High Altar) - We rarely fight up here anymore but should we ever have a run in at High Altar this is BY FAR the fastest return method, theres absolutely no reason not to have a few of these in your returns, just incase.
Requirements: Completion of Desert Treasure. You can purchase the tabs from other players on Zybez or for 10K BH reward points.
 
Will post part 2 anytime soon.
Enjoy ;-)
