Invention: Hammer & Tinderbox's

This week we're opening up new avenues for Invention, with augmentable hammers and tinderboxes and new perks to match.

Requirements;

• 22 Invention
• Runescape member

Once you've gathered enough Inspiration to unlock the necessary blueprints, you can craft the Hammer-tron and Tinderbox-o-matic. You can also augment the crystal tinderbox and hammer.

These engineering marvels can then be loaded with the eligible tool perks of your choice, including these new additions:

The update ive been waiting forever for !

Awesome update for skillers

I've just finished making mine. Anyone fancy saving me the research and telling me the best perks to stick on these new tools? 

Tinker is practically useless atm, effectively giving 0.1% extra xp per rank (max 0.3%). It will likely get a buff soon. Mod Ryan is currently considering 5% chance (per rank) for 25% extra xp, effectively making it 1.25% XP boost per rank (max 3.75%).

If it does get the buff, you're probably gonna want Tinker and Rapid on hammers and Pyromaniac and Rapid on tinderboxes. If it doesn't get buffed, Wise is better than Tinker.

Prosper is completely useless, at least for mining alea crablets (10 hours without a single clue from it so far).

I'll add these perks as toggles to the GP/XP calculator after DXPW (possibly earlier, but kinda busy until then) so you'll be able to easily compare how it affects the XP/H

By the way, if you wear e.g. a shield with wise perk on it while skilling, you get bonus xp in the skill you're training?

Thanks Red, much appreciated. I'll give it a week to see if they alter any of the perks before putting them on.

Prosper perk confirmed to be action based

hmm would prob be better if i stick on my hammer then as well as the x2 chance changes next week to get a clue
