  1. Never seen a post so successfully describe itself in one word, congrats! This would take a long time but if you did it, it would be a great achievement so good luck!
  2. Thanks Gregor, I try not to be too brief/vague but I also know it can get boring reading walls of text so yeah I like to try and write quite personally, after all, it is a blog! Yano Blake, as I was writing the posts, I really wasn't sure whether I should be putting he/she and I guess my patriarchal side got through and assumed anyone wanting things to be killed must be a man, so thanks for correcting me! Thanks Swedishboy, I've been a fan of your blog for years now! I apologise for no updates yesterday, it was my last day of school ever so the teachers and students all went to the pub and well, the rest is a bit of a blur... I do however have a picture from the night before. After posting I was considering quickly getting a herblore level... I decided to get said herblore level because 55 is the level at which I can make my own super strength potions, and I like to take a super attack and super strength on every task I endeavour! I figured it made sense to buy supplies for 100 super attack potions but I fell ever so slightly short of my target experience, but I did notice I had a few snapegrass in my bank, so I cleaned off a few ranarr, made some magic happen, and got this! Now to make 100 super strength potions and return to the slaying game, Grotworms watch out! (I'm considering tackling the higher level grotworms because a few friends of mine have suggested they are pretty good in terms of drops, but it depends how hard they are I guess!)
  3. Oh that woman who sent me into an ambush! But yeah I don't hold grudges, so I'll do a task for her every 10 tasks, strictly business though!
  4. Hey Tiigon thanks for posting, I try to make my blog interesting to read and hopefully people will enjoy it! Thanks for the tips, I guess I'll just stick with chaeldar until I have enough points! I suppose technically using Vanakka for all but 10th, 20th etc tasks would be better for points, but I don't entirely want to sacrifice experience, and I like the majority of Chaeldar's tasks. And it looks like barrows gloves it is! So what did I get up to today? I hear my millions of readers ask... Well I did a bit of sunbathing, popped to Tesco and played some fifa, but you don't want to hear about that! As you can tell from the pictures I used to show my stats, I started my day in Al Kharid, this was due to a Kalphite task Chaeldar asked me to complete for him. Now in the past, I would tend to just kill the lowly workers for a quick task, but today, armed with my new dragon defender, I thought I'd try my luck on the soldiers! The first trip was a nightmare because I got the anti-poison:monkfish ratio all wrong, but I returned and managed to slay a good 100 kalphite in 1 inventory! The drops were pretty poor, but the exp was pretty good so I can't complain! I returned, pretty pleased with myself, to my fairy master to receive my next task, which to my delight was Jellies. I remember enjoying Jelly tasks in the past and the clue drops they promised really got me in the mood to slay! Unfortunately not a single clue was dropped and it took me 2 inventories to kill the 157 jellies I was asked to. On the plus side, I got a fair amount of experience which resulted in this: Goal 1 complete, and now it's time to purchase that Verac's skirt! I returned to Chaeldar again for my next task, but this time he had something much more personal to ask me... He took me to one side and asked my to... experiment... Well what he actually asked me to do was test his new spray on some mutated zygomites, and me being silly, I took off my dragonhide armour and forgot to put my actual armour on, so 10 mutated zygomites took 2 trips! Thankfully Zanaris bank was nearby... On the last Zygomite I did however get this! So now I won't die as fast! I got back to Chaeldar, expecting maybe a 5k slayer exp reward max, but instead I was greeted with a 10k exp reward, and this level Goal 2 complete! My next task is Grotworms, I'll research into them and see how they turn out, but I've heard they drop some nice loot, so this could be a nice task! I'm also going to quickly get a herblore level so I can make my own super attacks and super strengths for future tasks! Until next time!
  5. Ok so I'll fill you all in on my first few days back as a member: I went back to my old hunting ground, barrows, and was utterly shocked to see the major transformation it had undergone, rendering my shovel useless! I'm not sure if I was having bad luck, but it also seemed to have gotten harder, so I decided to sell the supplies I'd stocked up on back in December and continue with other P2P-type activities. My dismay was further compounded when I found out I'd lost about 2M because it seems every item I had more than 10 of decided to crash and burn, including my thousands of runes, bolt racks, potions, herbs and seeds! I did however notice my ~3000 trout had shot up in value, so every cloud... I decided to visit my fairy friends and visit my old master Chealader (It's been a long time and I'm 99% sure I've spelt his name wrong, forgive me master) and he sent me off on a wild adventure of mass destruction. Well in reality he sent me to the slayer tower to kill some naughty mages of the infernal variety. After that and a few more tasks over the next couple of days, my favourite of which was a nice troll task, I was told to get a dragon defender by some very experienced players, and who was I to turn down their wisdom!? After 2000 tokens I had only reached the black flavoured defender and was on the brink of giving up! But 500 tokens later, I had the set, and one to spare, and I returned to what I do best, killing contracted monsters! There were a few clue scrolls that made me lose faith in the word 'hard' tossed in there too, and some nice drops including a torstol seed, black mystic boots, and 2 white mystic robe bottoms, but with exams looming, revision has to take priority, so I will post more news later when I have some for you, and whilst this was only a brief overview of the last few days, the posts that will follow this will be more in depth and will even include pictures!
  6. Hello there and welcome to my blog! n.b. I have a habit of writing giant walls of text, but I promise some of them are worthwhile! [spoiler=About myself]Hello again, here is where you click to read if you wish to know more about me as a person! I'll try and keep it short, but that isn't very likely to happen so here goes... My name is Jamie and I'm an 18 year old (soon to be ex-) sixth form student from South East London. For the past 2 years I've been studying English Literature, Media Studies, Maths and Spanish at a grammar school sixth form, and I'm about a month away from my final exam as I write this (probably not the best time to be starting a blog!) I enjoy many things in life, football (soccer) being one of them. Following in the footsteps of my dad, I'm an avid Leeds United fan and go to as many games per season as my finances and studies allow! I like going out Friday and Saturday evenings, usually to bars, clubs and pubs and I live for live music. Whether it be a Muse arena tour or my friend's band playing a local venue, I'll try to get to as many different gigs as possible. My music taste is fairly varied, but I think almost all of the music I like can be put under the umbrella term 'rock', with my current favourite bands being Muse, Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, The Libertines, Bloc Party, Kings Of Leon and quite a few more! Over the next few months, especially the weeks subsequent to my exams, I will have a lot of free time, so it seemed the right time to make a return to runescape (and blogscape!) My TIF join date suggests I should be pretty well known around here, but I was always more of a lurker, and having gone through a couple of name changes on here (Biscithead & Jamie_) I have settled with JAMjE, to match my runescape name. If you did know me on Biscit Head then let me know because I'm always looking to get back in touch with old friends! In september I'll be heading off to the University of East Anglia to study film, and I'm afraid runescape will probably fall by the wayside, so for that reason, these next few months aren't about achieving unattainable goals, but just me having fun. (I warned you about length!) [spoiler=About my Runescape self]My runescape story is in fact quite a long one, but I'll skip the first few years of mining coal in the dwarven mines, heading to draynor and selling the certs, even though those were some of my most enjoyable days on scape! If we fastforward to 2004(?), I made the account Biscit Head. If I knew how or why I came up with that name I would tell you, but I don't have a clue... That account however turned out to be my longest and most successful account, although success should probably be in inverted commas because 1500 total is hardly something to shout about these days! After a few years on and off, well more like 6 years with huge gaps in between, I finally though I'd outgrown this game, so sold the account to my cousin for a cool £50, a transaction I still don't regret! Just before I quit, I had started a skiller account called skillersz, which swiftly turned into my main when I returned from my hiatus roughly 5 months after 'being too old for Runescape'. This account was however hacked and I decided to start again one more time, so I made the account Robbence, which was named after a friend of mine who used the name Robbence in the IRC chat. I played F2P for a few months and was fairly content being an average F2Per but then I started to long for the trials and tribulations of P2P gameplay, so in December 2011 I bought one month of membership for my account. I had a fun month, but when it came to an end, my drive to play the game had diminiushed, so I left the account as it was. About two weeks ago, I decided to log on and see what the game was like. I discovered runespan and within a day I'd gained 25 levels in the formerly unbearable runecrafting skill, so I decided to come back, just F2Ping and 100% casual. Once again, my desire for challenges that only the membership side of the game could offer me returned, and so 3 days ago I entered that pin and became a fully fledged member of the Runescape community once more! Whilst playing Runescape, I try and keep my combat and non-combat skills balanced, but I always fail, because I just enjoy killing things so much more than making things! My favourite skills in response to this are: Slayer (Killing things because a fairy tells me to, who wouldn't enjoy that?), Magic (The whole attraction to this fantasy style mmorpg has to stem from somewhere!) and Attack (Higher attack, better weapons!) This being said, I also enjoy a few non combat skills, with my favourites being: Herblore (For me making potions links in with the magical element of the game), Construction (Who wouldn't want a home to be proud of?) and Smithing (Nostalgia reasons mainly) Start of blog; 27th May 2012 At the time of writing this opening post, my current stats are as follows My cropping level is: cba Here is my current, and pretty pathetic, best of bank Accepting all donations! Did someone ask for goals? I've never been the most focused scaper, that meaning I very rarely set a large goal and stick with it, and I have to accept that's just the way I play, so instead, I just have a few general goals, some easy, some hard, that I will achieve over either a short or long time, depending how enjoyable it is to reach! [spoiler=Level Goals] After achieving all but one of my previous goals, it's time to update them and set some new ones, perhaps ones that require some painstaking grinding, but hopefully not too many of those! Defence 80 - After achieving 70 defence, I had 70 in all of my melee stats, and I've decided the one I'd like to get to 80 and beyond first, is defence. A lot of people would say it's silly and I should go for max strength to maximise the speed of kills/ efficiency etc, but when have I been one for efficiency? Slayer 70 - 10 more than my previous slayer goal, and I'm currently at 65, so I'll be training defence and slayer simultaneously before moving on to ranging the last few slayer levels after 80 defence. Range 70 - Will be achieved through slayer after defence, red dragonhide looks ridiculously nooby so I need to upgrade to at least black, before moving on to royal! Never been a huge fan of range but I've purchased a dark bow for this goal so it shouldn't be too tolling. Summoning 60 - Summoning is currently my only skill under 50, and that is due to me being broke! I'm using all available lamps on this skill and with the help of tears of guthix, penguins and some actual training when my bank balance rises, 60 seems a nice level, and fits in perfectly with my combat level goal. Prayer 70 - After hitting 61, mainly through quest rewards, I think 70 prayer is going to take a lot longer, and will be done, unfortunately, through the old ecto training method, costing a fair bit, but piety will be worth it! Combat 100 - With all of these levels, I punched in a few calculations and I found at 70 attack and strength, 80 defence, ~76 constitution, 70 prayer and 60 summoning, I'll be right on 100 combat, so here's hoping an extra constitution level doesn't ruin that! Total level 1600/1700 - 1600 is very short term and I will probably achieve this goal within the next few days, and that I believe, is where I stop being a noob. 1600 total for me is where mediocrity lies, and anything beyond that is teasingly close to being labelled a good account, so here's hoping! Farming - 80 - That's right, after struggling to reach the 30s in this skill just over a week ago, I've sped through the levels and I should reach 70 by the weekend, meaning I'll have 10 levels to go! Herb runs will be funding my tree training and with Maples and Papaya, it works out at roughly 75k experience per day, so not too shabby! This could yet turn into my very first 99, but let's not get ahead of ourselves! That's enough goals for now? Conclusions are for essays And if you've read everything on this opening page then it probably seemed like an essay, but if you have read to here, you have my deepest thanks, and the only way to earn more gratitude from me is to post! The format for this blog will be to add posts, rather than to update this first page too often. Once all the goals I have on here are completed, I'll add more, and if anything major happens then that will be added to the front page too! And one final note, my private chat is set to friends, mainly because of gold selling bots, so if you want to add me, just tell me your name and I will, and a big thanks to everyone in Serpent Eye's friend chat because if they weren't there, all my noobish questions would remain unanswered!
  7. Good luck with all your goals, nice to see someone playing for fun and picking up the levels as they go!

    Dung help

    Oh simple as that then, shame nobody in the friends' chat could explain that to me, thanks!
  9. Ok right basically whilst still F2P I decided I may as well train my dung up from measly level 50. Getting 1-50 wasn't too hard and I didn't pay too much attention to the xp I was getting but what I've noticed since training it today is that my prestige suddenly drops for no reason. I don't full understand the ins and outs of dungeoneering so I took a few screenshots to show you what I mean... Ignoring how bad I am at dungeoneering, I just don't understand why my prestige falls in the 3rd picture? This has happened a lot and I don't know why/ how to stop it, because at my level every little exp helps! - I did up to 25 before and reset and had floors 1-4 complete, so today I've just started at floor 5 and gone down the floors numerically, not skipping any or doing any twice So yeah if anyone can explain why this is happening and how to stop it I'd be thankful.
  10. Raise your cropping skill before you raise those other stats! Good luck though!
  11. 99 rc tomorrow or you're going too slow! Keep it up man, I enjoy reading this blog!
  12. Sucks about getting hacked but well done on not letting it beat you, good luck with 99 runecrafting and all your other goals.
  13. Nice tip, ignore the arses, some people would rather put someone down than try and help others.
  14. Thanks, I usually ask one of the other wizards and then go and look for him which takes like 2 minutes, but I worked out that I can get like 800xp per minute just siphoning from most decent things which is why it seems a bit pointless, but I'll try just giving him fire runes every time and see if it makes a difference. Thanks again
  15. Wow haven't posted here in ages... Recently started playing runescape again and I stumbled across Runespan I'm not overly bothered about 'maximum efficiency' when I play but I was wondering whether there is any point in searching for the yellow robed wizard if I'm only getting like 600 exp per time? Is the time spent finding him not worth the small bonus? (Level 45 runecrafting/ F2P if it makes a difference) Thanks in advance for any helpful replies
  16. Hey look it's me! You were running away and I couldn't check how to spell your name so did the best I could from memory! Good luck!
  17. Welcome back Lonkehhhh <3 It's Biscit Head ;3 Can't believe you came back to this! Cya around mate
  18. Blog entry #1 Today was a good day! I learnt the values of talking to strangers! A lot of people probably play quite independantly, which I'm not judging because up until recently, I was very much one of them, but today I decided to partake in the flowing conversations at Musa Point. The people there seemed friendly enough, and I can't imagine where the term 'F2P Nub' comes from, but I'm going off on one of them pesky tangents! Where was I..? Yes, that was it, the people. We all enjoyed a few laughs, and time really flew by, and before I knew it, my inventory was full of a healthy mixture of swordfish and tuna! I told them I'd be back shortly after my cabbage expeditions, but before I could click the "teleport to..." button, I was told to "STOP and WAIT." Now I was raised a good boy, so I did as I was told, and one of the fine gentlemen I'd encountered that day decided to share a secret with me, he decided to share the secret of Stiles! For those who like me, were or are unaware of Stiles's existence, I'll let you know what his job entails: He takes my fish, and gives me paper. Sounds like a sweet deal for him? But what he doesn't know is that those peices of paper can be exchanged for the very fish he has filled his bags with! Oh Stiles! So I continued fishing until I heard and saw those oh so sweet fireworks! That was my aim complete, 58-60 fishing was done in a top notch time, and I made a few friends along the way! Stiles isn't one of them! Pesky fishmonger trying to steal my fish... I decided to retire as a professional fisherman, and try my hand at becoming a chef, after all I was already technically still an assistant... although I haven't worked for the chef in a good few months... So I grabbed my fish from my past career and set about cooking up a feast, and in the process I acheived this beauty! I believe that job was a success! After paying a visit to my old chef master, I officially quit as his assistant to start up my own cooking buisness, but first I'd need some clients, and who better to feed than a whole village of barbarians! On my way there I met this sad fella' Who rabbited on about his long lost love... or was it his big bad dove? Eh, whatever he wanted, I decided to help, yano, build up some customer relations! So after a lot of running about in the barbarian village, I finally earned the cheif's trust, and he placed an order of 12 feasts in the next 2 days... what can I say? These barbarians like their food! Oh yes, the quest... Well I turned into cupid for a bit and evicted Juliet from her house where a little 'n' large couple now reside! After helping him, the little bugger wanted more help, but this time I got a lovely little reward! And after that, i forgave him for sending me on a pointless quest! But I did stick a note on his fridge reminding him to sort his own love problems out in the future! Today was a good day!
  19. Introduction? Hello there avid blog readers, my name is Jamie and I'm here to tell you about my produ... welcome you to my blog! I'll try and keep this short and sweet, because you're here for runescape purposes and most likely couldn't give two fudgestickles about my personal life! I'm 16, turning 17 in a few days. I'm male. I've played runescape for some years now, this account is probably closing in on its first birthday, but the type of player I am doesn't record things like that because that would require commitment! Ah commitment, something that has evaded me my entire life, whether with school, girls :wink: , and clearly most importantly, runescape! And it is because of this lack of commitment, the highest level I've ever acheived in my runescape "career" was a mere 83 strength (disgraceful, I know). But because of my lack of commitment, which interlinks with my lack of ambition, I have stumbled across of form of playing runescape that some of you will find remarkable: I play simply for fun! Bear with me here, I know it may sound like I'm on some kind of drug here, but lets look at the facts: -Its a game. Right well I didn't do well in English so I sometimes forget the difference between singular and plural, but alas, that sole fact remains true, and for that reason, starting from last month, I began playing runescape for fun, and am thoroughly enjoying it thus far (though not quite enough to repurchase membership, despite these pesky NPCs nagging me to do so!). Well that's that for an intro I think? Does it not suffice? Would you like more info about my private life? Well you'll just have to post won't you! Now onto blogging, in this blog you'll be stretched to find goal bars and immense targets that I'll never aquire in my wildest dreams! Instead you'll receive a bidaily (I think that's a word?) update to begin with, which will either increase of decrease in
  20. I play again. You was on earlier but completely ignored me so i cried.
