Lumbridge and Draynor Diary

Test2- BurnettBot 04:41, August 22, 2010 (UTC) Test- BurnettBot 04:37, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

The Lumbridge and Draynor Diary, an Achievement Diary released on 14 July 2008 for free players, and is related to Lumbridge and Draynor Village. The diary can be started by speaking to Explorer Jack. Jack can be found north of the Lumbridge castle in a house marked with the Achievement Diary File:Achievmentdiary.PNG green star icon on the minimap. The house is just west of the general store. You must complete lower level tasks before being allowed to get the rewards for the higher level tasks. This diary is slightly different from the other diaries as it is geared towards low- to mid-level players in RuneScape, so it is divided into Beginner tasks, Easy tasks and Medium tasks, rather than Easy, Medium and Hard.

To complete the entire Lumbridge and Draynor Diary, you will need the stats shown to the right. (You also need to be able to defeat a Zombie)

Combat is not necessary, although the required 31 magic to cast Teleport to Lumbridge will raise a player's combat level to at least 17.

(Note: You can use request assist to finish many of the tasks.)

Beginner tasks[]

Items needed: Pickaxe, bucket of water, grain, small fishing net, 70+ coins (if the Prince Ali Rescue quest has not been completed), teleport runes and Amulet of Glory (4) recommended
nin Suggested route: Lumbridge castle, Al Kharid, Varrock, Draynor Village, Wizards' Tower, Lumbridge Swamp, Lumbridge, and for Members, the Canoe System is recommended as it will make it easier for the player to travel around lumbridge to barbarian village.

Glitches[]

Previously, when doing Snowman Dance at the same time as the explore emote, the sextant would still pop up. This has now been fixed by Jagex.
Some players were able to take use the third ring's teleport option to bring boxing gloves and other items only usable within a Player-owned house, like tea, outside of their house. The glitch could also be used to transport Karamjan rum off of Musa Point. This glitch has since been fixed.
If players did not speak to the Guildmaster and ask him about Dragonbreath protection during the Dragon Slayer quest and they had already finished the quest, they were not able to obtain an anti-dragon shield from Duke Horacio and thus the related task could not be completed. This glitch is also now fixed.
If players completed the "Prince Ali rescue" quest, they may no longer query the guards about the gate toll. Nullifying the ability to complete the beginner section. This glitch has been reported, and has been fixed.
There used to be an issue where, if a player reached a certain stage in the Swan Song quest but did not finish it, the Wise Old Man would not be available in Draynor Village to talk to the player about unneeded quest items in their bank, so the related task could not be completed. One workaround was to log into a non-members world to talk to him, but this wasn't completely reliable. With the Spirit of Summer update, Jagex fixed this so the player can now talk to Miss Schism to complete the task.
You may be able to cook a lobster, even without the required cooking level.

Skill boosts[]

If skill level is not high enough to complete a certain task, temporary boosts may be available to raise it to allow completion. See the relative skills for more information. This includes potions and request assistance.

Trivia[]

After the RuneScape High Detail update, players could see the Achievement Diary green star in Bob's Brilliant Axes, and near Ned's cabin in Draynor Village. This was later removed by Jagex as they had not released the Lumbridge Diary yet. After the full release of Runescape HD, the two green stars reappeared again at Bob's Brilliant Axes and Ned's Cabin.
It is the only Achievement Diary currently available to free players.

After the release of this diary, when viewing the "Easy" task list, it said: "Taunt the Greater demon at the top of the Wizards' Tower". Most mid-levelled players thought this was wrong, while newer players didn't notice, until it was fixed about 2 weeks after.
In the Beginner diary, the task of selling a shrimp to the fishing store was added to the original diary later as the fishing shop was new. However this did not affect people who had already completed the diary.
If you complete the Medium diary before completing the Easy diary, you will not be able to claim your reward for medium until the easy diary is completed.
Jagex has said that a Hard set of Tasks would be released in the future and Elite Tasks for all the other Diaries.
The Beginner task list used to say to create the soft clay and pot in the Barbarian Village, since there was no potter's wheel in Draynor Village at the time of the update. However, when a potter's wheel and clay oven was added to Draynor Village, the task was changed so it would fit the area the diary was supposed to be done in.
