Tai Bwo Wannai Cleanup

Tai Bwo Wannai Cleanup is a minigame that takes place around the village of Tai Bwo Wannai on western Karamja. Like all Minigames, it is members only. Players must have completed the quest Jungle Potion before they can take part in the minigame. The game centers around the earning of favour from the local villagers, and receiving trading sticks as a reward.

It is popular because of the special Hardwood grove woodcutting area containing teak and mahogany trees which can only accessable by paying 100 trading sticks and because it is a good way to obtain the snake hides necessary for snakeskin armour.

Necessary items

 * A machete (preferably one of the stronger jeweled ones from Gabooty's store)
 * Good magic defence armour (preferably a strong form of dragonhide)
 * A good weapon
 * Antipoison or Super antipoison potions (5 should be enough.)
 * A pickaxe
 * A spade
 * A woodcutting axe
 * Good food (lobsters or above)
 * A chisel (optional if players want to sell gemstones and get some crafting experience)
 * Relicym's balm (optional if planning to fight broodoo victims with special weaknesses)
 * Teleport runes (optional in case of emergency)

How to play
To start the minigame, players must speak to Murcaily on the east side of the village, near the mahagony and teak woodcutting area. He will tell them about the people who have started to return only to find their village overrun by jungle and other nasty surprises. He will then tell the player that in order to help out, they must help rebuild and reinforce the village fence by cutting the jungle. In return they will gain favour, which can be exchanged with villagers for trading sticks.

Earning favour
There are three different ways to earn favour from villagers:

Cutting jungle
There are three types of jungle surrounding the village, with light being the most common and dense the most rare. A machete is required to cut them.


 * Light - level 10 woodcutting required, gives 32 experience. Easy to cut but more spars required for repairing the fence.
 * Medium - level 20 woodcutting required, gives 55 experience. Slightly more difficult and slower to cut but less thatching spars required.
 * Dense - level 35 woodcutting required, gives 80 experience. Difficult to cut and relatively slow, but very good for repairing the fence.

Repairing village fence
The rotten village fence can be repaired with machete and thatching spars that you get from cutting the jungle. Village fence can be repaired with different types of thatch spars, you use 5 light spars, 4 medium spars and 3 dense spars. After repaired, the fence can be reinforced the same way.

Killing threats to the village
Several types of enemies may attack players while they are cutting jungle. They work the same way as random events, sometimes one kind will pop up, sometimes another. All poison conditions in this minigame start at 11 damage per hit.

Broodoo victims
Broodoo victims are an enemy category of their own. They are combat level 60 and come in three different colors. Their powerful and far-ranging magic attacks are the reason dragonhide armour is strongly advised for the minigame. Though they can be killed by normal means, each color has a specific weakness relating to how they were killed.


 * White - Food of any kind
 * Green - Antipoison
 * Yellow - Relicym's balm

Broodoo victims drop tribal masks, which may be combined with two snakeskins and eight nails to make a broodoo shield.

Collecting and using trading sticks
Almost every villager in the area will give a player trading sticks in return for some of their favour percentage. The amount of trading sticks received at any one time depends on the player's favour. The amount is also increased if the player is wearing villager clothes that can be bought from Gabooty.

Once players have claimed trading sticks from a villager they must wait a set period of time before they can ask the same person for trading sticks again. Once the favour percentage runs out the villagers will no longer give trading sticks.

Trading stick suppliers spread around the village, some of them are upstairs and some are far outside the fences. They also move around so it may take some effort to find them.

Suppliers are:


 * Fanellaman
 * Gabooty
 * Jagbakoba
 * Karaday
 * Layleen
 * Mama Buffeta
 * Murcaily
 * Rionasta
 * Safta Doc
 * Sharimika
 * Timfraku
 * Trufitus

Rionasta's Parcel Service
In addition to supplying trading sticks, Rionasta has the added advantage of providing players the means to store items in their bank without a lengthy trip to Ardougne or Shilo Village.

Banking any item costs 10 trading sticks, whether it is stackable or not. The service can be accessed by speaking to Rionasta and asking what he does around there.

Note: Rionasta only lets players bank items, not withdraw them. His service also does not include currency, whether it be coins or trading sticks.

Tips
Sometimes after jungle is cut, there may be something beneficial to players.


 * Goutweed Tuber - It can be dig up with spade and either sold to Gabooty or planted and grown with the farming skill to trade to Sanfew in Taverley for other herbs. Due to its rarity and its use in the Karamja Diary, goutweed can be sold to other players for a considerable price.
 * Gem Rock - It can be mined with a pickaxe to obtain 3 gems of any kind, including both regular gems and all 3 Shilo Village gems.


 * One fast way to earn 100 percent favour very fast, is to kill the non poisonous spiders in the north of the village.
 * To find goutweed, player should buy a Red topaz machete and hack ligth jungle until a goutweed tuber appears, then use your spade on it. Don't bother on repairing fence, drop stick and continue to hack ligth jungle until you find goutweed.
 * The fastest way to earn trading sticks is to sell cut gem (opal,jade red topaz) to the gabooty's store, in a few minutes player will earn the 2400 coins of a Red topaz machete.
