Even if I said I'd be hunting this week and get 80, but really decided not to???????

What I'm saying is that -10kg is no different than 0kg. That's how it's coded in the game, that 0 or less weight will affect your energy the same. I technically have no proof over this, but in the Mega Runecrafting Guide on the RSOF, Zarfot mentions this. I would have to trust him on this considering he's one of the top Runecrafters in the game, and has data for just about everything. So you don't have to trust me on this, but, I would at least say it's ideal to have 0 kg, which we know is a great weight to have nonetheless, and means with your weight reduction clothing, you probably at least have some decent armor to go with it. Ghostly Robes are alright, it really depends on the method you're using. If you plan on just range praying the whole time, then sure, go ahead. But put on Piety/Defence prayers for when you get hit by the warriors. I much prefer Rogue armor with a Bearhead and a Saradomin Book. This will give significant armor to everything that you face (and the mages aren't quite as bad as some people may think because they only use Fire Strike). I realize there are better armors than Rogue to use, regarding a good stats to weight ratio, but, I have it, and I like the look a lot. So I choose to wear it :P Regarding the familiar, Pantim... I'm not sure you've really RCed very much before... And by the stats on your current character at least, it seems as if I'm correct. Yes, you save a decent amount of money on using the Terrorbird rather than an abyssal familiar, however, you are not taking profit or xp/hr into affect here. With the abyssal familiar, you can easily gain 300-400 ess more per hour than without it. With that extra essence, you are making a slightly better profit than with a terrorbird (ZMI won't bring in lots of profit, but it generally gives a bit, the other forms of RCing (the high p2p runes)), and you are greatly increasing the xp/hr (I can't provide a number here, I forget how much xp you get roughly per essence). Using a terrorbird really is just being ignorant to the fact that you will receive much more than that with an abyssal familiar. I guess, if you were really strapped for cash and could only afford the essence and the few pouches and scrolls, then I would be alright with it. Whether or not that'll really sink it, doesn't matter, it really depends on what you prefer and what you're comfortable. So in no way am I saying you're wrong, however, the results shows the technical better route to take.

Meh been doing random things the last couple of days. Will get 96 Farming on Friday. Decided I really want 92 Fm, so buying 5k eucalyptus logs and 20k maples for now. Burned 3k euc logs so far, which got me 84 and 85 Fm. Planning on getting 87 tomorrow (just burn the last 2k eucalyptus logs) and then will move on to getting 99 Defence. Found out to get 99 Farming in February, I need about 15m more cash... So, hopefully Slayer will bring in some money :D But I'll Rc if I need to. So, 2128 total.

For Runecrafting, abyssal familiars are always better. The extra 7 ess per run can speed up the essence used per hour greatly, up towards 300-400 essence/hour (depending on where you're RCing). The super energy you use every 2 runs or so will make you profit much more, and decrease the time spent RCing. Ghostly Robes aren't necessarily the best bet. Of course it depends on your stats and your preference. I use Rogue body and legs, very lightweight, gives enough defence for me and my stats, and I like the look :P Ghostly Robes may be lightweight and a few magic defence points, but not good enough. With a Spottier Cape, Boots of Lightness, and Penance Gloves (if you have them, I sure do :P), you can cover the weight of most lightweight armors. I usually use Saradomin Book for a bit of melee, range, and magic defence, rather than one or the other kind of thing. And a Bearhead. That's just what I use though. It's really what you prefer. But try to get 0 kg, since if you have negative weight, it doesn't affect you any differently than 0 kg. So if you get 0 kg, it means you used up all your best armors while still keeping the best weight you can be essentially. Anyways, on to the guide and other comments. I found that going from 80-82 RC there, I was getting 35-40k xp/hr relaxed pace, using Duelling Rings to teleport to Castle Wars to bank. I tried using Fire Runes to bank, but, for some reason, could not get the hang of it. And I was competing with people, so rather than wasting time, I just went the way I knew worked. However, it is faster to bank using Fire Runes. If you're banking on Lunar Isle, you can communicate to the Eastern bankbooth in whatever way you choose, as long as you are talking to the Pirate guy (forget his name), you will be fine with banking there without a Seal of Passage. However, you do need Dream Mentor. I prefer a Glory Amulet over a Seal or Fury, or any other amulet, still good stats, plus when your pouches degrades, you have a quick teleport to Edgeville to repair them. I prefer to use whatever Protection Prayer is best at the time. So if I'm in an area with multiple rangers, range prayer, or, things like that. It's an easy switch, since all you're doing is running. And remember, you don't need to wait as long to empty your pouches with the Ourania Altar. With all other altars, you need to wait until the RC animation is over to do anything else. But look at your inventory, when you see runes, empty your pouches. So you can still do things while the animation is still happening. This saves a lot of time throughout all your runs. If you bank at the Altar (using the fire runes), I recommend dropping the low, near worthless runes on the way to the ladder from the teleport. This will save a couple seconds each time you bank. And that's all I have to say for now. I maybe forgetting things.

Got 86 Wc, probably will stop that for now. Got 380k xp today, that's almost 6 hours of nonstop wcing =\ 2126 total.

Sure, why not? Couldn't stand Hunter again today. So did random things, went to SC and got 7 tools, which will eventually be something... Probably needles for Crafting. Then ended up trying power cutting teaks, 70k xp/hr :D Got 85, and will get 86 tomorrow. 87 if I'm pro and nolife. 2125 total.

77 Hunter. Caught 942 chins so far. This is boring =\ But still about 75k xp/hr.

Got 83 Fm from farming trees, and reached 76 Hunter tonight, just 4 more to go. Probably won't be going for 99 anytime soon lol. BORING :( 2123 total.

Thanks Miss :) Starting Hunter tonight.

80 Agility. 75-80 Hunter left for all 80+ stats. 2121 total.

You should get 82 Rc, then Rc with me :D Keep us both motivated. Astrals bore me after like 10k ess.

Oh yet, achieved 9m Farming xp last night. And now, slightly less than 4m xp to go for 99! That's roughly 40 days!

My plan is to get five 99 stats in these two months (Jan/Feb). So far, Fletching. Almost 99 Def, which will cover this month. For Feb, planning on 99 Farm (gradually getting each day), 99 Str to max out melee, and 99 Hunter or Thieving. I will decide which one later, probably Thieving though. Just want a quick one. Later on for March, planning maybe 99 Fishing? Something relaxing, may throw in FM, easy, quick one there too. I'll find out if I achieve these five 99s first.

Epic : Seems as if you've really put a lot into this already, which, makes it more likely you'll stay :P

Had just enough tools to get 80 Construction, so I got 76-80 Con :D Getting 80 Agility today (79 at the beginning of today), and then should get 80 Hunter (75) next week for my final level 80 stat.

SC rocks, got 13 tools so far. Thinking about getting 99 Crafting soon. Maybe... I don't know.

95 Farming, just 4 more to go. Planning on getting end of February. 2116 total.

Decided to start playing Stealing Creation. So much fun! :D

2115 total. Ugh quality is bad because my laptop automatically saves as Jpeg instead of Png.

You posted the 86 Magic picture a second time instead of 72 Smithing. Grats noob, welcome to the 85 Mining club.

98 Fletching :) One to go, glad to be finally done with this skill basically. I hate it... Got 165k bolts to make, along with 20k darts. All banked, getting tomorrow. 2114 total.

Bumpity bumpmcbumpers. Got 94 Farmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Yay :D 8m xp too. 2113 total.

Pwnt, 'nuff said.

So 1262k Fletching xp today, and an extra 100k random xp from other things. I'll show Runemonkey stats in like an hour in case I have more fletching to do.

Yeah yeah yeah, working on it. That task still brought in about 450k profit lol. A win in my book.
