Tips for getting the inferno adaze
Introduction:
The Inferno Adaze is a reward for playing the Beacon Network mini game. You can get the Adaze at level 88 by boosting your firemaking level but be aware you cannot wield the Adaze until you have reached 92 firemaking. The boost needed is spicy stew with three shakes of orange spice but it is random if it works to boost your firemaking level.
The Beacon Network is a series of 14 beacons along the Wilderness and Varrock borders.
The Adaze functions as a dragon hatchet while woodcutting and as a rune pickaxe while mining.
While woodcutting, the Adze has 30% chance of instantly incinerating a log as it is cut. If this happens, the log is instantly burned giving the you full Woodcutting and Firemaking experience, including any bonus experience from the ring of fire and the flame gloves if you are wearing them. This technique is used while cutting teak logs with a knife in your inventory. Fletch the logs into arrow shafts and you don’t need to leave to bank. You are training woodcutting, firemaking and fletching using this method.
If you die with the Inferno Adze it will not appear on your gravestone.
If you lose the Inferno Adze, you must light all the 14 beacons again to re-obtain it.
Preparation:
Required Skills: 64 Agility for shortcuts, 60 Crafting to repair a windshield, 31 Prayer, 70 Smithing or 59 Construction, 62 Firemaking for the first reward, 79 Firemaking for the second reward, 92 Firemaking to claim all three rewards.
Items Required: 1 hammer, 1 needle, 2 Iron bars, 3 Jute fibres, 4 planks, 9 nails, 2 Law runes, 2 Fire runes, Logs to light the beacons (each beacon needs 20 logs).
I used magic logs because I wanted the longest burn time.
regular logs burn 13 min
oak logs 13.5 min
willow logs 14.5 min
maple logs 15.75 min
yew 16.5 min
magic 18 min
It is most important to use longer burning logs on the first 5-6 beacons you light.
Know your route well and what teleports to use and when to use them. You need to spend some time getting everything ready for your run. Some beacons need to be repaired to use them. Load all beacons with wood ahead of time. Give each attendant a macaw pouch if you want to be able to check the information map to see if all beacons are still lit, otherwise you will only see the three closest beacons.
Be aware of what payment each attendant will want to keep your fire burning. At the goblin village you will have to give the goblin a Davy Kebbit Hat (Requires completion of the As a First Resort... quest) before he will talk to you, and the lady in charge of the beacon north of the Varrock palace claims that she is tired and needs a white tree fruit (Requires completion of the Garden of Tranquillity quest) before she can help you. The man at the beacon west of the Dark Warrior's Fortress will ask for a lava eel. These payments are optional; I chose not to pay these three to save some time.
Each beacon can burn 20 logs at a time, and can be refreshed with an additional 5 logs (all of the same type).
To see which beacons are lit, you can right-click the NPC guarding the beacon and select 'Information.' You will see the information map above.
The flame means it is lit, while the blue dots mean that they have either died or have not yet been lit. A small flame indicates that the fire is dying out.
Supplies:
Some beacons are in the wildy and you should take precautions in case pkers attack.
Moving over distance sphere obtained in the city of Dorgesh-Kaan from Oldak for 2 law runes and a piece of molten glass (Fast teleport to the goblin Village)
Games necklace
Runes to teleport to Trollheim, at least 2 cast of this spell
Ring of dueling (tele to castle wars to use the balloon)
Glory amulet (tele to edge)
Combat bracelet (tele to the monastary)
Spirit terrorbird pouches
Tireless run scrolls
Super restore potions (to restore levels at the GWD beacon)
Magic or yew logs, 20 - 25 extra for payments pay at least the first 4-5 beacon attendants, the better the log the longer it will burn
2 willow logs for balloon rides
Tinderbox
Wear boots of lightness, spotier cape, agile top and legs.
You can take a dip in the salt water bath at Oo'glog to extend your run time as well
Repairs:
Beacon 9 Burthorpe- bring a hammer and two iron bars to repair ladder
Beacon 10 west of dark warriors fortress- bring five nails and two planks to repair
Beacon 12 NW of GWD- bring a needle and three Jute fibers to fix the windbreak
Beacon 13 - bring a hammer and two iron bars to repair ladder
Route:
The white numbers in the pictures are the beacon numbers. The red numbers are the order in which I lit them. Of course you can plan out a route that works best for you. I started at beacon 12 because there are a number of things that will slow you down at this beacon, snow drains your stats, wolves will be attacking you, drink super restore potion before lighting this beacon as your fm level will probably be drained. Also make sure its lit before you leave. I left and it wasn't lit and I had to go back at the very end, almost running out of time.
As I stated above, know this route well before your beacon run. Fix the beacons that need repairing before your beacon run. Preload all beacons ahead of time. Just click on a beacon to light it. Use a log on the attendent to leave 5 logs with them. Then tele fast to the next spot.
1.Start at Oo'glog and bathe in agility spa (salt water spa)
2.Teleport to Trollheim and run via God Wars to Beacon 12. Light it and give 5 logs to the Polar bear, use the logs on him. Use Super restore potion as required, the ice drains your skill levels.
3.Ring of duelling to Castle Wars, Run to Balloon and teleport to Varrock.
4.Run and light Beacon 2, then Beacon 1. Leave 5 logs with each attendant
5.Ring of duelling to Castle Wars, Run to Balloon and teleport to Varrock.
6.Run and light Beacon 3, Beacon 4 and Beacon 5
7.Use Amulet of glory to teleport to Edgeville - light Beacon 6
8. Teleport to Monastery using combat bracelet, cross bridge toward ice mountain and run around to black knight's fortress and light Beacon 7.
9.Use Dorgeshun Orb to teleport to Goblin village and light Beacon 8.
10.Use games necklace to teleport to Burthorpe Games Room, run up stairs head east and light Beacon 9.
11.Use Trollheim teleport and agility shortcut east to light Beacon 11
12.Use the short cut to enter the wilderness and run down south to light Beacon 10
13.Run north up the west edge of the wilderness and light Beacon 13
14.Run north, (use protect from melee) and light the last one Beacon 14
Return to King Roald to claim your prize.

Training my level 3 skiller
Getting started:
When you create your character you can get some money to start off with by looting the chest where the roaches are and the chests in The Stronghold of Security. Bring some trout with you to the stronghold because there are a few agressive monsters in there. The wild is fairly safe for a lvl 3 because most revs will not attack you. You can make some trips to Red Dragon Isle to collect whiteberries to sell. There are a few whiteberry spawns near the red dragons.
To avoid getting combat experience accidentally, weild a bow but no ammo for it, also keep auto retaliate turned off.
Fill your toolbelt with all the tools you can get.
Getting around is more difficult as a skiller. Use teletabs and jewelry that has a tele on it. Some are Skills necklace, Games necklace, Ring of dueling, ring of wealth, amulet of glory, Grand seed pod. The wicked hood will tele you to various rc altars.
Most of your early skilling can be completed right in Lumbridge. Lumbridge has a range and a spinning wheel. Cut trees and fletch or burn the logs. Catch fish and cook them. You can spin wool and flax at the spinning wheel on the second floor in Lumbridge Castle.
Quests that it is possible to complete as a lvl 3 skiller:
Other quests may be possible by using rings of recoil or having a friend help with the combat parts. One strategy is to hit a monster first but then have your friend wear a ring of recoil to kill it. That way your hit will be the most damage done and you will get the kill.

Skills to Train:
Cooking
Woodcutting
Fletching
Fishing
Firemaking
Crafting
Smithing
Mining
Herblore
Agility
Thieving
Slayer (trained at Soul Wars)
Farming
Runecrafting
Hunter
Construction
Dungeoneering
Notes on specific skills:
Hunter: Feeding ogleroots to the rabbits in the minigame vinesweeper gives 30 hunter exp each rabbit. Its a good way to start hunter because this skill starts slow at leveling.
Woodcutting:
Save all the logs you cut for either making planks for construction, fletching or firemaking. When going to the lumberyard watch out for the smuggler who will attack you everytime you go there. Stay close to the bar area and then walk over to the lumberyard.
Fishing:
Fly fishing lvl 20 It is possible to fly fish all the way to 99. If you want to fish lobster for more cash then start them at lvl 60.
Crafting-
Colin and I weren't members when we started leveling crafting. We mined quite a bit of clay and made bowls. Then we bought the ingredients for stew. The stew sold at a surprisingly high price.
spin wool, lvl 1
spin flax, lvl 10
craft holy symbols, lvl 16
make unpowered orbs, lvl 46
craft green dragonhide bodies, lvl 63
Smithing:
iron knives, lvl 22
steel bars, lvl 30
addy bolts, lvl 73
addy arrowtips, lvl 75
You will also get fletching experience if you add feathers to the bolts or add arrowtips to arrows.
Mining:
Mining is a competitive skill and you will have to be aggresive in getting ores to mine. Always lots of people mining iron, bank as much of it as you can to save for smithing. Scorpions mine in Al kharid is not a safe mining spot for lvl 3s.
A favorite mining spot of mine for iron is right outside the entrance to living rock cavern by the summoning oblisk, there are 2 iron ores and you can bank in lrc.
When you can mine gold save it all for smithing gold bars and then use the gold bars for crafting unstrung amulets. 3 skills ftw :p
Runecrafting: Get a wicked hood in Varrock square and add all the talismans to it for some rc exp. You get some free ess from the hood each day as well as 2 free teles to a rc altar. If you can get people to run ess to you at the law altar it is worth not having to run there.
Air Runes lvl 1
Earth Runes lvl 9
Law Runes lvl 54
Now that Rune Span has been released rc training is significantly easier for skllers.
Farming: Consider learning to play Vinesweeper minigame for farming exp. Buy farming supplies at the garden shop beside the farming patch in Catherby and add to your toolbelt, also add tools to your leprechaun. Make supercompost by adding 15 pineapples to the compost bin. You can buy cheap pineapples on the dock in Catherby by talking to Ahreim. I use 3 farming patches as a lvl 3 skiller: Catherby, Fally, and Ardy. Use skilling necklace to tele to fishing guild and run east to get to the Ardy patch. Use teletabs to go to Cammy and Fally for those patches. Any produce you grow collect in baskets to use as payments for farmers. Baskets can be bought in the garden shop in Catherby or woven on the loom in the farm house in Fally using willow branches. While you are running to different patches keep your eyes open for places to fill up your watering can. There is a water pump outside the barber in Fally. There are fountains in Fally, Varrock and Cammy. If you are at the ardy spot with no water you can find a fountain by running north. I started out planting potatoes lvl 1, Marigolds lvl 2, cabbages lvl 7, tomatoes lvl 12, corn lvl 20. Marigolds sell at a high price and protect some produce from disease so continue planting them in the flower patch. I don't start planting herbs til lvl 32 Ranar but you can plant the lower herbs if you want to.
At level 15 start planting Oak Trees at each of the 5 tree patches in Fally, Taverly, Varrock, Lumby and the Gnome Stronghold. Pay the farmer a basket of tomatoes to watch them so they won't die. Grand seed pod, they are expensive but it keeps you from having to walk to the Gnome Stronghold and gives a bit of farm exp also. (I have a more complete guide on planting trees in another post on this forum) You need to start tree seeds in a plant pot first and then plant the seedling in the tree patch.
When you have the levels for it the most cost effective way to train farming is to plant maples and orange trees. (calculated by Red)
Dungeonering:
Make sure shared exp is turned off and go with a high lvl friend who will do the combat for you.There are clans who help skillers train dung.
When you create your character you can get some money to start off with by looting the chest where the roaches are and the chests in The Stronghold of Security. Bring some trout with you to the stronghold because there are a few agressive monsters in there. The wild is fairly safe for a lvl 3 because most revs will not attack you.

Lost Pleiad
This is my skiller account.
The name for my new skiller account came
from the Greek myth of the Pleiad who came to Earth to marry a mortal. The
Pleiades were the seven beautiful daughters of Atlas and the ocean nymph
Pleione. By command of Zeus they became a constellation, shining by night as
stars; but by day, in the form of doves, they flew to the mountains to gather
ambrosia for the Olympian King. All were content with their fate, except Merope,
the youngest, who had fallen in love with the King of Corinth. She slipped down
to earth to marry the King. For this act she was forbidden to resume her
heavenly station. She is known as the Lost Pleiad, forever separated from her
sisters.
