The next day the bug was fixed and knives could no longer be equipped. New players were made with names “knife” or “knives” in it to remember this day. It was actually a day of much fun, hardly anyone seems to have lost much and people enjoyed hitting all of those high numbers. Most players then stopped using it on their mains but low level wildy was full of noob pkers hitting 30s. Strangely, *name removed* wasn’t banned although his gf and Dj Aztech were.Īfter a time Paul took partial control of the situation as he started banning people for using the knife bug. Others were Angel2002, God420247, Grubyyyyyyy, Trupimp, Silentboy05 and more. :( In this case the bannings started and a lot were perm banned, the highest level I believe was Bigkingsfan. Playing with knives is fun until somebody gets cut. People were hitting huge numbers left and right, people with even mid level str could hit 30s while those with high str easily hit in the 40s. )Īfter the secret was revealed it was total chaos for one day as everyone tested/pked/trained the knife bug. Funnily enough since there was only one source of knives people would stand at the knife spawn and check to see which players were collecting knives, which included RS’s famous poeple. Then the secret itself was posted in a Runescape fansite (Iip It forums or maybe Killgen forums) and everyone and his newbie were now using it. However, a lower level player X Magna X if I remember correctly couldn’t resist showing off and numerous people saw him hitting a 30 which was impossible for him to do because it would have required him to have 99 str (which he couldn’t possibly have due to his total xp which was seen on hiscores). Now apparently some people had discovered the knife bug but it was a closely guarded secret. Imagine having knife bug today I bet I’d hit 99. My higher level friends hit 40s and higher rofl!!!! And they almost got 2 hit by level 60 newbies. However, although I hadn’t mentally classified it as a “bug” I did realize it was crazy so after about a few minutes I dropped the knives. So after my friend showed me the “trick” (lmao I was too dumb to realize I was exploiting a bug and it was bad) I went to ices and called 2 friends over to show them the nice lil “natural” (i.e. The only drawback was if you equiped a lot of knives you had no room for food. When a knife was equipped it added weapon aim and power, the more knives you had equiped, the more weapon aim/power you had. Before you char stops moving, right click on the weapon, as shown on the pic below: Click on the mini map so that your char starts walking then click on “drop the weapon.” Now, as I’m sure we all know, if you try to drop something while you are walking it doesn’t drop until your char has stopped. In you inventory have a weapon and knives in the space to the right of the weapon. Special note: this does not work anymore and these pics are recent ones, not from the actual time that you could do the knife bug. Then a friend pm’ed me that he was gonna teach me a lil trick to hit 30s. God was showing Angel how to use the knife bug, however they were still keeping it secret. The next thing I know about it is when I log in at hobs and God420247 and Angel2002 are having a conversation. Everyone laughed at him and called him a newbie, however numerous people actually did see him hit a 30. Then some guy (X Magna X?) posted that he had a r2h and could hit 30s. This was Jan or very early 2002, I think, and the max hit was supposed to be 30 with 99 str and no one had 99 str yet, iirc.Įxample: One day as I stopped by hobs on my way to ices I said hi to Dj Aztech (Stinger, LKJ’s old flame) and he was rather disturbed about something.ĭj: Meili, *name removed* taught his gf how to hit 30s, they hacked the game. In the beginning: The first I ever heard of it was whispers in the game of some players being able to hit 30s. Silentboy and Trupimp’s permanent bans were later made into temporary bans and they got to play on their characters again. Many players were banned for this bug such as Bigkingsfan, Grubyyyyyyyyy, Trupimp, Silentboy05, etc. Each knife gave an additional 3 weapon aim and 3 weapon power to whatever you wielded. Apparently when Jagex created knives they put 3 weapon aim and weapon power on it but at first they were useless, it was only when flecthing came out in members that knives became useful. The knife bug is an old bug where players could equip knives which were then a useless item but spawned upstairs of varrock general store.
