When I go to Tav dungeon I bring a ring of dueling and an axe/hatchet with me. From cwars cut a regular log, balloon to taverly, then duely to cwars/bank. T'would be fast water-orb charging as well, with your agility level. Hmm.. That's true, I could do that because my agility is so 1337. I'll try that out Ant. Think it will be faster than just going south and to the Fally bank? Baloon travel, etc. sure has to add a lot of time. Do the wildy course until 70 peterpan. Need to clear world 2 of pure n33bs =\ Balloon Travel takes hardly any time at all (unless your computer tends to lag during the scene where your balloon goes from start to destination and you end up traveling there ten times or so :P) It's like cosmic crafting. You walk about 3/5ths the length with teleporting (balloons/rings) as opposed to walking to and from the bank. Of course, if you're only killing a 'few' dragons, it wouldn't make much of a difference either way. and if you had to go out of your way to obtain rings of dueling, it might be best to not bother with balloons. Aside from that; balloons = speed, imo.

Antaeus [2283/2496] Fire Cape!
14 May 2007 For the most part I spent the day Barrowing and degrading my crystal bow. I like how it performs at barrows, actually. It took a while for it to degrade from just ranging Ahrim, so I paid the bloodvelds a visit. I will probably end up using these over Karils Crossbow just in general. Got a D med from Barrows. My first Dragon Drop. Heh. I'll make another attempt at the fire cape after completing the new quest if that comes out tomorrow. After that, I'll give it one last go. If I don't get it within those two attempts, I'll take a hint and do more leveling before I try again. [hide= D med] [/hide]

, now that he won, theres no point of going for 81 fishing (yet). cya soon in BA i want that torso Yay for BA. Be sure I can make it :XD: Alright, so the race is over, and Ant got his 70 ranging. I talked to Ant in the caves, and he was on like 360-180 I think when we talked. He was running low on racks, and low on supplies. I wonder what came of it? Erg. Well, I died. I might've been alright as far as supplies but I got a bit lazy. At 360 180 90 I had both the 360 and the 90 on me, and the 90 was not playing nice :( wasn't sure where to run, panic = death pl0x. So I tried again with 2 crystal bows, and a couple more sara brews than last time. I went in and wth? Guthans wouldn't heal me at all. Didn't seem worth it to waste super restores or Sara Brews so early in the caves, so I just let them take me and started again fresh. Again. Why can't I heal? Worst luck ever? Must be another bad run, I'll let this one go as well. WAIT. Took a look at my equipment. I had Torags Legs instead of Guthans Skirt. Do'h! #-o What a waste of time =D> Anyway, for the second real attempt: In the middle of it I figured I ought to play it safer and do a lot more ranging and conserve my prayer. Made it to 360 90 90 but by then I was almost out of super restores. Still had all my sara brews though. Yargh. If only I swapped one or two out :wall: So now I've gotta make a bit of money, degrade and recharge my bow. Then I'll go again. Instead of charging one of my seeds I bought a brand new bow from that one fellow. Jeez, man. These cost a pretty penny! Anyhow, yeah...Back to fishing :o

Thanks, Shocktart All Quests complete. :D 1700 total as well. [hide= 73 Mining, 68 Thieving, 59 Prayer-1700 total, 242 Qp] [/hide] I'm glad they're finally done and out of the way. I plan on keeping that cape on my back too :P Celebrated by hitting up Jiggig for some bonesies. Then off to range Fire Giants and finally finish up my slayer task. Not sure what I'll train ranged on after this task is complete :P Hopfully Chaeldar picks a good task for me. heh

@~Beerrobber's Bloggy~@1700TOTAL!!!-66PRAY
Are you that greedy that you need doubles of full dragon and the Dk rings!? :shame: :shame: That's pretty bad imo, but I'd like to see you with a fury around your neck. And why am I always missing these trips to kill [insert large monster here]!? :cry: Good news is I'm feeling better, so I should be able to play more. shortly after you left I had to go as well, so you didn't miss much. That trip lasted about 4 kbds in total. Lol. @Death: Erm, uh...I'm sure that's just a coincidence O:) :-w :XD:

Antaeus [2283/2496] Fire Cape!
Yay for BA. There are guides on advanced defender tactics? where? :shock: I'm curious about how other experienced defenders tackle the role. High fives for comparing notes :o yep, it seems Barrows doesn't like me anymore :cry: [hide= Logged Runs 01-25] [/hide] I'll be honest, it seems less interesting when the drops are far apart O:) bought a bunch of p ess that took quite a chunk out of my bank. So now I'm juggling making back my 'play money,' raising runecrafting as quickly as I can, and maintaining my sanity. :uhh:

how you organize your bank
here's my top window yay for organized runes Planking materials. ftw. Nat crafting. more ftw. tools I MUST keep in plain sight at all times :shock: stuff below this: currencies/tickets/collections then materials for crafting>ranging>woodcutting>mining/smithing>cooking/fishing>herbore>farming>random outfits>combat attire If I have only 1 of something (combat gear, law tiara, pouches, ecto), I don't bother trying to fit it in a proper catagory. Especially if it's something used relatively often. I'll know I can find it in the bottom window. that's good enough :P

Thanks, Beer. :o Idk, Bloods and stuff = fairly lucky, or so I think. I'm ready for a Barrows Marathon :o Starting Runes and Racks and supplies: [hide=desktop plx] [/hide] Bwahahaha. Made a spreedsheet to calculate the profits from my runs. Would've used Salim's L33t Log/Proftit calc but I don't have excel :-# Ohwell :D

Thankies for the bank comment. Hmmm...If I sold a bunch of my stuff I could afford to buy the 25k magic logs I'd need for burning enough fiyr shades to get 99 firemaking :shock: Gah. I'm soo ADD. Anyways :o Yessah! 82 Magic \ I'm starting to like the Mage Training Arena. I'll probably get enough Pizza points to put full infinity in my house. [hide=82Magic, Bones to Peaches, 69 Rc, 64 Ranged, 62 Herblore, 72 Agility] [/hide] I like spreadsheets [hide=Combo Runes are smexy] [/hide] My bank is roughly half of what I'll need for 91 Rc, so...woo! I've got quite a ways to go. In a bit I'm gonna do my barrow log differently. More like a Barrowing for profit log. In other news: Ant is sick :cry: not sure what I did but my tonsils are mad at me. They're all swollen and angry :-X Probably won't be on much today and tomorrow. heyyyy~ Combo Runes were updated. :B coool~ :o
-
~Death Dude's Blog~
Yeah, I know :evil: But I think the mole loves me. Got 7 kills in that night. Agility are hotness! :o *jealous* Teak and Mahogany planks are beast. Especially when you exploit your peons and the hot air balloons. I used to make money planking oaks before prices for those plummeted :? Grats on all the levels :thumbsup:

New Update = Rcing Nerfed?
if slow experience is the problem: start making combo runes 8-) in it for the fast cash? (and who isn't?) I have no sympathy for you :boohoo: Runecrafting is not 'nerfed.' Abyss crafters will either get over it (literally), or do something else :P

A mathematical approach to the crystal bows (UPDATED v1.2)
Just a reminder that when you're calculating the % difference between two numbers, you have to subtract number b from number a, then divide by number a. (a-B) A = "B is % worse than A" (in the case of a negative, A is worse than B) As it is, you're about 100% off on your calculations. For example... to say that B is x% stronger than A denotes this calculation: ( % x A) + A = B (1.25 x 20) + 20 = 45 <- which is not the case for the crystal bow. In this case, 1 Crystal shot = 1.25 Rune shots. Or Crystal is .25 times stronger. Minor oversight, or major, depending on how you look at it. 1.25 times something and .25 times something can be quite a difference. I don't see why you would multiply these two numbers together to find cost effectiveness. Seems a bit lazy, really. Shouldn't it require something like... C bow vs MSB + Rune Each gets X amount of shots Damage w/ C bow @ X shots = A Damage w/ MSB + Rune @ X shots = B Cost of X shots for C bow = Y Cost of X shots for MSB + Rune = Z A Y = M and B Z = U M and U equals the bang you get for your buck. (U-M) U = Rune is on average x% more expensive than C bow shots (in the case of a negative, C bow is more expensive) averaging the max hit and accuracy and multiplying those two together...I don't know...Worse yet is multiplying percentages for two sets of statistics. :? Obviously we won't be hitting at max damage each time. And it won't just be a 'hit or miss.' So [max hit x %accurate] doesn't quite seem right. I'm not sure what would do it except to shoot a few hundred thousand rounds :-k I'm not 70 ranged yet either, but I am a math geek 8-) (not a nerd. nerds are smart.)
