So apparently my plan is following. Host F23 or arrow hunt, get 5 people, start floor as 5:5 c6 small dungeon. Solo the dungeon and hope for the best. Won't this take forever considering the chances of getting right boss and even when getting one, getting the right drop? :( Is there any way to do it faster aside doing c1's or asking people to do the floors with you. Wouldn't soloing a 5:5 floor, even small, take quite some time if doing continuously over and over again? Oh well..

Use Jack of Trades, penguin points, troll invasion and circus. Should save you some grinding, though not that fast. Maybe faster to just keep on doing what you are.

Small floors then?

Ok, so I was planning to get back to dungeoneering. I was lucky enough to get hex (if you're more interested about how, read my blog) because of a friendly stranger, so I would also like to get sagittarian arrows. I bound gorgonite arrows just to get using it fast, but it feels stupid to have hex, yet no proper arrows. Which floor and with what settings should I be hunting sagittarian arrows? Apparently I can't solo them, can I? Anyways, if someone would be kind enough to help me with them, that would be a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Thanks :) EDIT: I got 99 herblore so I can do strongest weapon poison myself. Just need people to hunt them with me. EDIT2: I assume anyone with +45 dungeoneering can help with this?

Got onyx #36 and died on attempt to get another. I guess I should just stick to my old habits of doing instead of trying new things. I'm so used to my ways already that I keep forgetting stuff. Like this time I tried to use constitution crystal before armadillo wave, and forgot it was active during it. I got comboed by dil and zek while trying to spam click restoration crystal. :( It's so frustrating to die at this point when you make easy mistakes like that. Especially when you're already 80% done with the kiln. Missed 4,5m profit there, which sucks. Especially when you're doing kiln solely for profit. I think enough kiln for today. Argh. Atleast I got upto 113m cashpile with selling 2 onyxes. I'm running low on supplies though, so that 10m I made will probably dissapear faster than I got it. Oh well. :(

I don't know what to think about this in overall, as it seems like a big marketing scheme for SoF and future costume item in Solomons store, but it's nonetheless big achievement. The video about players telling about their thoughts, memories and wishes was nice and actually quite emotional to be honest. It's always nice to see different people from different cultures all around the globe enjoying this game. I actually have to admit it's a bit sad to see all these people who have been with this game since so long, to see where this game is heading. Please Jagex, you have gotten this far, don't take the downhill route now. You got the wheel, you got the costumes - and we are already on the edge. Don't push yourself (and us with you) over it. :( If they must add more microtransactions, please please please stay on cosmetic items. The Smiths - Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want

This time I'm too lazy to write long stories so I'll let pictures talk for themselves. 250m coins goal passed. This was only for a picture, cause I bought zaryte bow and arcane back right after this picture. Now about 100m coins left. Realised I cropped badly by the way.. Oh well. Anyways.. Next thing I got 95 dungeoneering (forgot to picture), and I'm now about 4m experience away from 99. So I'm dungeoneering quite a bit now. Might get 99, might not. Not in a hurry with that. This morning I got this from SOF (shame it's not that 200m, heh). I felt a bit dirty accepting his money though. :( Latest but not least I bought 200 runecoins to buy the cabaret outfit. It's the best looking costume in my opinion ever made in RS. Quite stupid that you have to pay to get it, but in overall I don't really mind. It's also funny that you can hide all your stuffs, armours and such under them. Works like charm when dungeoneering. Atleast people won't start yelling about armour hoarding or while smithing in dungeon. I know, I know. It's bad for exp, but who cares. It's awesome to have platebody under your shirt or full helm under your hat. I doubt anyone would see that coming. "Promethium! You are full of surprises, Mr. Sydan!" Back to dungeon. ->

I spent today playing RS2 instead, so I'll just answer your questions before a proper update of my next gaming session. Yes there are bots in RSC, just probably for the same reason as in RS2. People want to have high levels, but don't want to train themselves. Besides, it's awfully easy to bot in RSC. Only 40 players per server leaves you alot of room to bot without anyone ever even walking by. Or if they do, they most likely won't bother. I have yet to see first player moderator either. If Jagex can't get rid of bots in RS2, why would they even bother with Classic. Personally, I don't really mind about bots as long as they are not coming in front of me. Like that mining bot for example. Usually players are really nice and bots are in overall rare. Community wise, RSC is a good experience. To Gwynrwyn, I haven't been in Khazard city yet. Thanks for the tip though, I'll definitely add that to my list of places to visit - maybe I can even get a funny picture or two. :) Updates to come after next gaming session!

Thanks for your kind words. I did go through a small (or a bit bigger) burst of despair with my goal, but I managed to get over it and back on tracks. I'm type of person who would want everything now, instead of having patience to wait and work towards my goals. Well, atleast to some extent. I often tend to start goals, quit goals, start another goal and quit again. My progress (apart few exceptions) in this game has pretty much always been that way. I start a big goal, try to tackle it with a huge burst of motivation before it fades away. I try to take giant steps at a time towards what I am aiming, and it usually burns me out and away of what I am doing. After those few giant steps I usually take some time off the game and sometimes don't play at all for shorter or longer periods of time. However, in long run that evens up to small steps forward. I tried a bit of merchanting today, I tried to figure skills to train, I tried and tried to think of something to take place of my goal, but I couldn't. Main point is that fight kiln offers me the best and most efficient way towards reaching my goals. The problem was always the speed. I can't keep on pushing myself doing few kilns a day, cause that simply is not fun anymore. That being said, I will continue on my fight kiln goal (as I have already made so much progress), but take my time doing so. I have played 10 years already yet still feel motivated to play, it's not llikely I'd be quitting (atleast for good) any time soon. I might take a break, but I will return after. My current focus is on doing whatever I feel like, without forgetting the goal I have. I'm still aiming towards maxed melees, max cape and set of rares and a party hat in the progress. I'm just reminding myself I have no reason to hurry for it. I'd like to thank you all who follow my blogs and write a sentence or two every now and then. Those words give me motivation to play and aim towards goals and believe that I will some day reach them. Because as long as you have goals and motivation, this game keeps you entertained for long. Thank you all and remember to check my RSC blog aswell. :razz:

#32 Kilns done.

Basically you can already buy pretty much any item in the game from one of various goldfarming sites. Doesn't mean I would like this kind of updates at all. Let's just hope they keep this for cosmetic items only. I don't care if someone wants to spend few bucks to make their character prettier. As long as in-game advantage is kept in minimum. Like it in my opinion is with SOF. Atleast so far. However, no matter which way you try to spin this, I can't say I wouldn't be a little worried. Too much real world trading will kill the game sooner or later. On another note, dissapearing items have made my current kiln run a bit more harder than usually. Can't say it wouldn't raise a smile to shoot arrows with armadyl battlestaff though.

What an ugly cape. Blah! Basic dull shape with way too much stuff going on at once. Oh well, it's not like the stats would make it worth wearing. Still gotta try if I can buy one yet..

Finished Kiln for Onyx #31. Rest of the day I spent dreaming about owning a partyhat and playing RS Classic. Still loads of Kilns left to complete. Gets tedious. Might need a bit of break from that actually.. Not sure what to do. :?

Thanks for your replies! It's good to see some find my journeys interesting. And also to ask questions that need answers. Agility, eh? Despite the lack of activities in RSC compared to RS2, it still offers alot of content that I never had chance to try before. And even though I don't expect much from most, I've still decided to give them all the opportunity they (don't) deserve. Like agility for example. Agility - with all my heart - has earned it's spot as the most annoying skill in RuneScape ever since runes got spanned. I've trained the skill to 83, and I still can't figure out how. It's dull, repetitive and what seems like a worthless task compared to what kind of rewards it offers. You can run longer and use occasional shortcuts. Yaa-hoo. However, after trying the skill out in RSC actually made me reconsider everything. Let's see: Three courses, 99 levels, dozen less shortcuts, no animations, no costumes to unlock, no cape and no running. Why on earth would one want to ever torture himself trying to train agility in RuneScape Classic? First of all the skill looks - if possible - even more dull than any other skill I can imagine. You spend most of the time on top ladders, where there is nothing but darkness all around you. Empty "room" after "room" you tackle obstacles (without even tiniest animation of doing anything) in solitude trying to figure out why. No, that wasn't even all. The worst part was - yes even worse - that it was even slower to train back then. According to my calculations I would've needed to run around the first basic agility course in the Tree Gnome Stronghold almost 280 times to get level 35. That is 25,000 experience. At level 35 I can double my XP rates at barbarian course, and probably even triple or quadruple that when I finally get access to Wilderness course at level 52. That would approximately take me almost 15 hours of gameplay to get there. 15 hours to reach a bit over 100,000 experience! Talking 'bout bad XP rates... Man, I must say whoever trained this skill to 70 or further in RuneScape classic deserve something more than just a pat in the back. I came, I saw, I got frustrated. I managed to gain 15 levels, but I'm not looking forward to returning. For the last 20. I took a picture simply because this slippery log was the only obstacle in the whole course that had even some sort of basic walking animation over the log. If training agility was frustrating experience, I can't say much better words about ranged training. Actually, I trained ranged before going to agility course, so that might explain why I got extremely frustrated. Let me explain to those who don't know or can't remember. In RSC you can only range other creatures as long as they can't reach you. Unlike melees or magic, you can't use ranged while in close combat. This means that your only way to train ranged is hiding behind fences or shoot across the rivers or tables. And incase you don't want to use fortune for dissapearing arrows, you have to walk and collect your arrow after each enemy. That means alot of running back and forth. Let's not forget I already have 15 million ranged experience in RS2. First levels are the worst, I hope. Here is me shooting a goblin behind the fence. I actually killed mostly cows, not goblins, to collect cowhides for the future crafting training. Other things I did today in terms of skilling were fighting against a miner bot for iron ores at Varrock mines, collect runes from Varrock rune shop by switching back and forth the two servers and fletching arrow shafts and collect feathers for iron arrows in the making. I'm surprised I didn't add a single curse in the middle. It was not fun. Rest of the day I decided to balance between questing and herb collecting with my best chaos druid friends. I leveled to 53 in combat, and managed to fill my bank with herbs I shall be needing for 45 herblaw. That's the level you need for Legends Quest. If you didn't catch it already, most of my level goals are aimed to Legends Quest. Thank lord the Gowers didn't put 60+ level requirements on quests back then. I would be training agility still in year 2020 if that was the case. The quests (Plague City and Biohazard) offered me actually a fair bit of enjoyment in going through the old storylines with ridiculous dialog. If I took a picture of every single spelling error (or funny spelling) or irratonal reasoning in RSC questlines, I wouldn't have space to write from all the pictures. I know my English isn't perfect, but one would think they would've even bothered to try with a game people pay to play for. I guess I was wrong. Or people just didn't care back then. I didn't really care either, but I can assure you a grammar nazi pig would have to keep close watch on his (or hers) blood pressure if making a run for the Legends cape. In my opinion it's just hilarious. I try to catch some funny pictures for the blog! Here be me after rescuing Elena from the Plague City. And here I'm chilling with my buddy King Lathas after finding out (SPOILER) that the whole plague epidemic was a hoax. This quest was actually the first time that being too cheap for using law rune to teleport was a good idea. After reading the quest guide later, I realised that teleporting would've destroyed the plague sample I had collected from Elena. Thank Guthix I decided to just take a beach walk from Ardougne to Karamja - and have a little sailing trip to Port Sarim - from where I headed to Rimmington - and from Rimmington I took a forest walk past Draynor Manor - to end up in Varrock. You really get to see the World if you're not always teleporting. I've already forgotten how many things (which all actually look pretty much the same to me in RSC) there are in land of Gielinor, while using only teleports in RS2. I've definitely learned to appreciate teleports the beauty of taking a relaxed walk across the whole globe for each and every quest. It sort of.. Puts you closer to the nature? That'd be that for today, and tomorrow I think I'm going to fix that damn broken clock in Ardougne. I hate not knowing what time it is when I'm waiting a boat to take me to Karamja. And more!

As my blog is still standing, I assume it's all good to have RSC blogs in this section too. That's good! I started the day by killing hundred or so chaos druids, and managed to level my melee levels a couple of times. I also reached 50 combat (which I forgot to take a picture of). After having about 150 unidentified herbs in my bank, I sold them to a friend for 1,000 gp each. I also managed to get more attack potions, trading them at 2 to 1 ratio for snape grass. That gave me enough wealth to buy a rune platebody and left me with like 100,000 gp extra. A bit more actually. I was only short of a rune large helmet from complete rune set (well with 2-handed sword that is), so I decided to try my luck at greater demons, which according to runescape classic wiki have 1/128 chance of dropping rune large helmet. I've gotten dozens of those things in RS2, so going to hunt for one felt a bit awkward. I remember getting rune large helmet from greater demon back in 2003 or so, and it basically doubled my bank back then. How time flies. :razz: Those level 87 demons aren't that easy for level 51 combat in rune gear. I managed to kill about 8 or so of them before running out of food, and decided to I'll kill one more before doing something else. I figured that I might have to train my levels a bit higher before trying to tackle greater demons again. However, when you least expect it... ..There it was on the ground. Actually, as you can see I "faked" the picture, cause I picked the helmet up before realising to picture it. I forgot it gives a message like that on the screen when you're dropping items. Oh well, you got the point. I got a rune large helmet in 10 kills. Awesome! Happy about my success, and the fact that I managed to complete one of my first goals (rune full set with 2-handed sword), I decided to do something else for a change. I went to Taverley, talked to Kageemex (or whatever his name was), and started my journey of collecting meats for druidic ritual. Considering I normally would've just teleported to grand exhange and bought everything I need, this little quest became a bigger task than I first thought. I walked (yes walked, I still don't teleport) through Falador to Lumbridge, killed a chicken and a cow, continued to Varrock forest for some bear meat and eventually finished this chore in Varrock sewers killing a rat. After about 15 minutes walk around pretty much the whole free-to-play globe, I managed to gather all the required resources and sink them in the thunderous cauldron in Taverley dungeon. I returned to Kageemex (if he is not called Kageemex, then now he is) and gained knowledge about herbs. 99 Herblore in RS2 doesn't count for that, I guess. Ah! Now I get it. Of course herblore doesn't count for Herblaw... :eek: After looking at the picture I took, I realised he was called Kaqemeex instead, so I take my previous words back about the poor druids name. However, after the quest I took the mountain route back to Edgeville, and returned to cause havoc among the mistreated chaos druids. That's that for today, and tomorrow is a new day. If someone is reading this blog, give a shout so I know I'm not writing to myself. Which is not too bad actually, but you know. You know right? Anyone ever wrote a diary and wrote it in a way that incase someone found it you would be prepared? I never did.. I know you're reading this...

It's not like herblore would be that much more expensive than many other skills (crafting, smithing, construction etc.). You can get 99 with less than 100 mils. Just go gather some money. Or clean herbs and do it for free.

First Days So I decided to kill chaos druids for money, and it didn't take long to find first customer interested in herbs and runes I had looted. I sold him the herbs and runes, and bought a rune 2h and strength amulet. Huge improvement to iron 2h, for sure! He was also kind enough to give me adamant platebody free of charge, on top of that deal. Lucky me! This is how I went back to chaos druids (steel legs and helm on pic). Am I the only one thinking rune 2 hander is one pretty weapon? So shame it never got much of use in RS2 afterwards. It was and is the beast in RSC though. After all, all weapons are same speed, so only weapon stats matter. Only upgrades I can get are dragon longsword and dragon battleaxe now. And it's quite a while to 60 attack anyways. After killing chaos druids for another hour or two, I got my second customer (who I had good chat with about RSC and RS2 aswell). He bought 124 unidentified herbs from me for 800 gp each + 1 strenght potion for each herb. So I got 99,200 coins and 124 strenght potions. Those will make training alot more fun, I think! I will put those potions in good use. I bought rune legs with the money. I also got this while collecting herbs. (ps. it's funny it says defence in level up message, but defense in stats screen) Now that I got rune legs and rune 2 hander, the two next obvious upgrades were rune platebody and rune large helmet. Shame that rune large helmet is quite hard to get, with not many sellers and zero shops to buy from, I just have to wait till I find someone to sell one. Or go DIY on greater demons and hope for the best. I'm not sure if my levels are good enough to greaters yet, though. Which is funny, considering I two-hit greaters in RS2. Well, this is totally different story here. So I decided to go for rune platebody first. I noticed I hadn't done dragon slayer yet (but luckily found the map on my bank), so I went to finish Elvarg off. I thought I had to fix the ship still, so I ventured around wilderness picking planks (and scaring my a$/#s off seeing white dot) and begging for nails in Varrock anvils. I didn't really beg, I just asked and got them immediately. What nice folk they RSCscapers are! Anyways, I did it all just to realise I had already fixed the boat 8 years ago. How could I not remember that! Nevermind, I took my gear and explored Crandor - getting hit by skeletons, hobgoblins, scorpions and demons on the way - just to get almost baked by Elvarg. I guess I'm really overestimating myself too much, cause I thought Dragon Slayer would be a total cakewalk (like it is in RS2). It wasn't. I almost learned it through the hard way, when I couldn't hit the dragon at all. I blame my adamant longsword about that though. However, after long struggle (10 lobsters and 3 sharks later) the b%"#¤rd finally gave up and died. I was ready to cheer and jump for joy just to realise there are no emotions in RSC. Nevermind, I didn't have time for that anyways, cause the level 51 (or whatever) skeletons tried to finish the bold but exhausted dragon slayer. I managed to escape through a paperlike wall (all walls are paperlike here, though) and crawl to freedom. Here is picture of my moment of glory. Dragon Slayer, f*¤#k yeah! After my heartbreaking (in many ways) encounter with the good old paperdragon (alot of paperstuff here), I decided to do something more relaxing and went off.. Well.. Back to chaos druids. I still need money, man! By the way, I was trying to take a picture of the fight, but my hands were shaking too much to be able to watch out of the screen. Not really. Well, a bit. :oops:

You definitely should. Basically it's free money for little to no effort. I've been spending last 2 days playing RSC, incase someone was wondering. I'll be playing RS2 (whatever number you want to call it now) too, of course, but I got sort of hooked on good old RSC. I made also a blog where anyone interested can follow my RSC progress. Hopefully people like to read about that too. RS2 news, I'm closing towards 100m, and might get it today unless I feel like playing RSC instead. :D

1 - Introduction Hey all, First of all, I'm not sure if RSC blogs are allowed in this section (apart the fact there are one or couple here), but I don't seem to find any RSC blogs in RSC part of the forums either. This is a daily blog, similar to my RS blog, except alot less "serious". My goal is to have fun and kill some time when I got nothing else to do, and don't feel like playing RS. I've just made my return to RSC after 8 years. My stats were the same I had when RS2 was officially launched, and I was never a member in RSC. So basically I just want to go back to those early RS memories, and also try all the member things in RSC I never got to try. I hope moderators let me keep my blog in this section of the forum, so people who might have interest in following also RSC blog have opportunity to do so. I hope people find my journey in RSC entertaining to follow. This is also for everyone who never had opportunity to play RSC, or know what kind of game is behind the one we all are currently playing. Hope you enjoy! 2 - Differences to current RS Everyone who has played RSC know that it's almost completely different game than current RuneScape. First of all there are alot less activities to do, less skills, and pretty much everything is less complicated. There are barely no "use x" options for training skills, and only one I know is when using trade or bank. Back in the days I remember even trading didn't have "x" option. You just had to hold your button until you had as many items as you wanted. It was horrible - especially when trading hundreds of thousands of gold. One of the biggest differences is lack of people, aswell as lack of grand exhange. Finding the items you need will be alot harder, and have to be done the old fashioned way through asking people you see and writing in forums. I've already started my own buy/sell threads in official RSC forums, and managed to make my first friends there. First impression on RSC is that people are very helpful. That is a good sign! So all in all, training is alot slower and is alot more tedious. Basically you have to click for every single thing you do, instead of being able to AFK. You can't drink potions or eat while fighting, so you have to run away each time you want to do that. That will definitely make quests alot harder than they sound. That's another reason why I'm curious to go questing in RSC. Trading is also harder, and is in many times based on trust. You can trade only 12 items at a time, and many of the items are not in any way stackable. Luckily there is certification system (similar to noting in RS), which allows you to turn some of the materials into patches of 5 (cert), that stack. In other cases, you either have to trade every 12 items at a time (like herbs or such) and pay money each time. Or pay money in advance and just hope the other person gives all the herbs he promised. So far, I've gotten everything (and more) than the deals required. That leaves a good image of the people, and make you want to trade with them again. Anyways, there are awful alot of differences that deserve a closer look, so I hope to give them time with my future posts. I can't describe the whole RSC in one post. So let's move on! ;) 3 - Start After first day in RSC, my stats were following: As you can see, I started my journey to members RSC by thieving men in Lumbridge. To be honest, it was quite similar to current pickpocketing, aside lacking animations for the action. Also instead of stunning when failing to pick the pocket, the NPC's attack you. Either you kill them, or wait 3 rounds of combat to run away and pickpocket again. To be honest, I don't really like the skill any more than in current RS. Tedious as ever. However, as thieving basically offers instant gp for every succesful pickpocket, I thought it was good way to start. I made couple thousands to get me some iron items and iron 2 handed sword to make killing things a bit more faster. It's a start, but I still got a long way ahead of me. I also tried my hand in fishing, woodcutting and fletching. Soon after I managed to get proper start enough to go combat. 4 - Goals Like I said earlier, my main goal is to just adventure, explore and have fun. I don't have plans for 99 skills, max stats or anything of that matter. Those are my RS blog goals. Here I just want to do whatever I happen to feel like, and see what happens. My main goals are in combat, as I don't really fancy training skills in RSC. I still hope to give all skills a shot, and train them atleast up to somewhere. I wish to reach 1000 total one day, and hopefully have 30+, 40+ and 50+ all skills. Maybe even further. Maybe. Another main goal is to gain enough wealth to hopefully get best possible gear in RSC (dragon medium, dragon baxe, dragon square, rune plate and rune legs?) but as long as I get dragon weapon it's all good. That shouldn't be hard. Dragon medium and dragon square cost bucketloads in RSC. 3m for helmet and 15m+ for shield? Damn. Eventually I also wish to complete each and every quest there is. So far I've completed all free to play quests aside dragon slayer. So dragon slayer shall be first, and onwards to members quests then. In overall, I think that is all, and I hope people will find my journey back in time as interesting as I do. Hopefully I get comments and questions, and my blog gets a warm welcome in the RS era of changes. More to come!

Today I decided to go gather what my workers in Miscellania had collected (for quite some time), and here was the result. I didn't really pay attention how much profit I made, but about 10 million or so I think. Other than that, I've done 3 more succesful kiln runs since last update. 30 Kilns done! It gets occasionally a bit tedious, but what in RS doesn't? Main point is that I'm going forward on my goals, gain cash which I can spend on things I need in the future. Zaryte bow and Arcane (my most valuable belongings) are both rising in GE and forums (not sure why zaryte now) but it makes me glad. I always hate owning items that are going down, no matter how good they would be. Losing cash when trying to make it isn't very nice. Anyways, without more to say, here's my latest results. Not far from 100m cash checkpoint! 12.7.2012 Cash: 84m (+ 26,7m) Kiln completed: 30 times (+ 3 times)

Congratsulations on completing fight kiln, and getting that cape! Any plans on farming onyxes maybe? :)

It's been a while since last update, but I'm still going forward on my kiln goals. I visited home for the weekend to see my friends and have some good time (and bad time day after). I haven't played much at all in last 4 days, but still managed to get 5 more onyxes. I also made more overloads and bought more supplies in overall. That's why I'm only up 23,6m since last update, even though I got 5 onyxes. I should have supplies for dozen kilns or so now (aside maybe some runes). Lately I've been wondering what I'm saving my cash for (apart having beautiful pile), and I'm not sure whether I should go after some rares, get some gear or go for some levels. I've dreamed about owning a partyhat ever since I was like 12 years old (time flies), but never managed to actually get one. They've always seemed to be out of my grasp. I've owned pretty much every other rare item in the game (apart cracker of course), but only one I'd really like to get is partyhat. That would require ton of grind, but could maybe be doable. Another main option is getting all "buyable" 99s out of the way first, and after that go for party hat. That would require even more grind, so I don't really know what to do. At some point I got to level some skills too! I'm just afraid more time I spend on skills the further the party hats get. However, after I had the skills, I wouldn't have to worry about them anymore. Aside farming, I have still about 180m worth of buyables left. And that would take approximately 250m worth of kiln time to do aswell. So doing all 99 buyables would cost me 430m or so, compared to if I'd spend all that time in kiln. Last option is saving money until after combat evolution kicks in, so I could afford the best equipment. Nevertheless, I'm currently saving money until I figure what to do with it. I'm glad that both arcane and zaryte bow are going up, so I don't feel like wasting money using them on kiln. My total wealth is probably over 250m for the first time. I don't know, should take BoB -shot, but I've been slacking with screenshots lately. :D More to come! 10.7.2012 Cash: 57,3m (+ 23,6m) Kiln completed: 27 times (+ 5 times)

Great guide, shame I lack steel titan so I have to go with uni. Unicorn works just fine, it just slows you down a bit, incase someone is wondering. With uni it's about 4,5-5m gp/h compared to possible 6m or so with steel titan. I've personally gone with each ranged weapon (zaryte, karil and ccb), and I think zaryte is the best alternative. Karil's definitely beats ccb though. In overall completion times zaryte and karil are about same speed, but zaryte has longer range and costs less per kiln, so that in my opinion makes it superior ranged weapon for kiln. However, Karil's is excellent and stable (market wise) alternative.

It's great to see that you're still motivated and having fun playing after completing pretty much "everything" in this game, what comes to skills/completionist requirements. It's a game after all, and as long as you enjoy it, it's time well spent. I'll keep reading about your journeys! :shades:

Good luck with your goals! Remember to give them enough time and don't try to force yourself through. After all it's all about the journey more than the ending. You're progressing nice, so just have fun with the game and enjoy whatever you're doing. :) I'll keep eye out for this blog.
