Runescape Stat Editor
Many players in RuneScape enjoy all of the
trials and tribulations it takes to go from a weak level one
character to a powerful character well into the hundreds.
This take a lot of time and dedication, however, and
sometimes isn’t that much fun. Many players spend hours
building up their characters, but others look for a short
cut: stat editors, third-party software that allows players
to illegally change their character’s skill levels and
abilities.
However, while such programs work in other games, many do
not work in RuneScape. Why? Because RuneScape is a
completely-online game. Players have nothing downloaded or
installed on their computer. Everything from the world to
the chat client to the characters are stored on secure
servers. This makes it incredibly difficult for players to
create programs that hack into the RuneScape source code and
change character information.
However, even though there are no true stat editors
available, many web sites still try to offer them. A quick
internet search will result in hundreds of hits for
“RuneScape stat editor.” Players should be very, very wary
of these sites. Very few are out to help players really get
ahead in the game. Instead, most are scams seeking players’
passwords or other personal information. Players should
never give out their password to websites such as these and
should always be careful when downloading and installing
programs from websites they are uncertain of.
Even though players can’t magically make their characters
into super warriors, there are still some third-party
programs that can make the tedious work a lot less boring,
although again, players should be careful about downloading
and running programs from sites they aren’t sure of. These
programs include auto trainers and autominers, both of which
automate processes that are often dull. The programs allow
players to create automatic loops of specific actions, like
cutting down a tree and lighting a fire, that quickly build
up skill points without requiring the player to sit in front
of their computer and mindlessly click back and forth. These
programs are considered illegal by RuneScape staff, but many
of the newer programs include ways to get past the game’s
auto trainer detection programs.
Gamers should enter the world of RuneScape with the idea of
getting ahead by taking the fair, honest path of hard work
and dedication. For those who want a shortcut, however,
caution is advised. Automated programs and statistic editors,
if any actually work in the game, should always be
approached with caution, least the player find their
computer infected with a virus or their personal information
stolen and maliciously used.
