    Aww yeah.
     
    [hide=More of the Same!]





















    [/hide]
     
    Oh yeah, still pretty average, but I still love new skills.
     
    And, of course:
     

     
    Last of the Magic Scrimshaw scroll pieces! Woo!
     
    And first of the Strength:
     

     
    And that's all for this week. Then I was sad 'cause I missed the 51 Divination screenshot, thanks a lot mum, callin' me and stuff. Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    Though less than the previous weeks, I've still got a lot of Divination levels. And I'm very close to yet another, but too lazy to go and get it. Heh. I missed the screenshot of 52 thanks to my mum calling me just as I got it. THANKS MUM. But yeah, here's them boring screenshots.
     
    [hide=Dem Div Levs]

    i got dis tho lol









    [/hide]
     
    Also got a shiny new Dungeoneering level. Only 12 to go!

     
    And a shiny new Hunter level. Only two to go! I think I could power through this quite easily. If I find the motivation to hunt, I've got 70 recharge gems and a couple of spare blank pendants. I've already used my prized ones up with this one though. Plus after that I've got a million and one clover necklaces, though it's only a tiny boost, it's something.

     
    And, a scroll piece to top it off.

     
    And that's all for this week. Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    96: Right You Are, Kenny.

    By Dax,

    And so, my weekly blog post comes forth (SO SHUT UP CHEN), between episodes of MXC, hours upon hours of work and playing of Sleeping Dogs, I didn't really do much on RuneScape this week. Got a few levels here and there, and some other beautiful scroll pieces, but yeah. First up, we'll deal with Divination:
     



     
     
    Don't even need hide tags for this week's Divination efforts. Gonna have to work on this for 86 so I can clear the Elite tasks, and then later 99 of course, so I might have to play a bit more over this coming week. Next up I got 95 Smithing to match my Mining:
     

     
    And picked up the next level of boosts for burial armour, just because I could. I don't even care, that's how reckless I am.
     

     
    And, scroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooll pieces:


     
    Done with the Strength scrimshaw, woo!
     

     
    Started on the Ranged one now.
     
    What do we always say? DON'T. GET. ELIMINATED! Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    With a stomach full of tacos and a head full of unknowing of what I should do, I remember that blog thing I do occasionally, so I thought I'd better do it. Two weeks worth of stuff. I haven't played too much, thanks to other pursuits, but here's what I've got for ya.
     
    First of all, I finished off the final superior ports set, Death Lotus, my lowest and least favourite fighting style (No real reason, just never been terribly fond of it). Looks pretty nifty, better than that ol' Dragonhide stuff.
     

     
    Next up, Divination, still slowly going through the skill, and reached 70! That means I'm most of the way there, right? Woo! 70+ stats yet again!





     
    Also got this level, it's kinda cool I guess:

     
    Actually, pretty happy about that. Hunter's been around for ages, and with Divination and its daily Hunter spot, it's getting cleaned up super easily.
     
     
     
     
    Also scroll pieces:



     
    Ranged, check.
     



     
    Cruelty, nearly check.
     
    And that's it.
     
    ily alg and everyone

    98 Defence and Fight Club.

    By Dax,

    Yeah. That's it. Going up to a mate's place to see Fight CLub in Blu-ray, widescreen TV, surround sound epicness in a few minutes. I've never seen it before, so it should be good.
     
    Catch you next time, ~Daxter.
  6. Dax
    Oh yeah! 99 Hunter! I was expecting this to be my last 99 for the longest time, probably since the beginning of this little ol' goal of mine, but with lamps and laziness, I've prevailed. I accidentally got this one at Burthorpe, forgetting about the doubled exp rewards of daily challenges, but that doesn't matter as it's all over now!
     

     
    Next goal, using up all my leftover pendants/recharge gems on Smithing, getting that together with Mining, then other things. Good thing I've already made a start on both of those:
     

     

     
    Also bought this, because I like spending points, and because this is what I'm doing at the moment.
     
    SCROLL PIECESSSSSSSS.

     
    CRUELTY DONE.
     


     
    VAMPYRISM MOSTLY DONE.
     
    CATCH YOU NEXT TIME, ~DAX.
  7. Dax
    99 Defence and 85 Slayer! Woop woop!
     

    85 Slayer messages failed, so I did this. :|
     

    Woo, the log is gratsing me in spirit.
     

    Double Emote. What do you think you're doing? Being awesome, that's what!
     

    Woot.
     
    Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    99 Firemaking.

    By Dax,

    No party cause I have no friends (That and I didn't want to wait for another few hours, organise people, tell them to hurry up and everything that comes with it). Catch you next time, ~Dax.
  10. Dax
    YEAH BOY. 73 DIVINATION. THAT MEANS OVER 1M TOTAL EXP IN THE NEW SKILL. YOU GUYS ARE ALL JEALOUS.
     
    So yeah. Stuff and stuff. I got nothing to say. I just remembered this and thought I'd better do something.
     
    Got 95 Ranged. This is looking like it'll be my last 99, to be honest. Magic levels naturally, but Ranged only gains exp rarely and I don't care to train it.

     
    AND SCROLL PIECES.
     

     
    VAMPYRISM. DONE.
     



    GEM-FINDING. NEARLY DONE. Not much more to go now! Woo!
     
    Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    Agility and GTA.

    By Dax,

    Well, after completing 80 Fishing and Cooking. I asked a friend (who gave me my previous goal) for something to do, we stood in Varrock West talking for a bit, and then he comes up with Agility. So, at the moment, my goal is 75 Agility, which may or may not be bumped up to 80 when I get to 75.
     
    Also, I spent some ($60 Australian) Christmas money on GTA Chinatown Wars. Best decision of the week, a very good game. Check it out. The drug dealing concept (though it caused some controversy) is good fun, and should be put into future GTA games. :thumbup:
     
    That's all from me! Back to GTA.... Well, after my PSP charges!
  13. Dax

    And so it begins...

    By Dax,

    And there it is, in all it's glory. My new 'goal'. I shall be doing whatever potion, then camping Mages to resupply my cash. Hopefully I can get it without boredom.
     
    Anyway, that's all I really wanted to say, now i've gotta get back to FFA Clan Wars with my clan and then homework afterwards, which I seem to have a lot of. School sucks.
     
    Catch you next time, ~Daxter.

    Back into the Slayer game.

    By Dax,

    After taking a break from Slayer to get 80 Fishing (From 75), 80 Cooking (From 75) and 75 Agility (From 71, which I got while Fishing), I've gotten back into Slayer. Returning to my task of 211 Waterfiends. I've got to go back and take down 70 more fiends of water! I'm hoping for a Dagannoth task, really, so I can Balmung/Slayer Mask/Super potions my way through the task. After going back to Slayer, i've gone back to my 'I'll get 99 Defence one day' mood. :D
     
    Suprisingly, I wasn't hacked with the other 749,999 other people that were meant to be hacked! WOW! #-o
     
    That's all for now, until next time! ~Daxter.
  15. Dax
    BioShock 2 Special Edition? I haz it. Got it just a few moments ago. I'd be hitting the PS3 around about now if it wasn't for the Bio test I have tomorrow. Expect something more tomorrow maybe. If I can be bothered.
     
    RuneScape wise, I got bored and decided to finish the 88 Herblore goal I set a while back. I've only got to make 2,000 more potions, and then it's Extremes for me. :thumbsup:

    BioShock!

    By Dax,

    Well. If you were looking for someone who got BioShock 2 on the weekend, you came to the wrong blog. I'm talking about good ol' number one. I went to [uNDISCLOSED LOCATION] to see my [uNDISCLOSED RELATIVE] and ended up heading into EB Games. After pondering whether or not I should get it for some time. I said to myself 'Stuff it, i'm getting the damn thing'. I quickly grabbed the game, my wallet and proceeded to the counter. Handing it over to the chick there. She asks for ID. I'm short, so she didn't believe I was 15 and able to buy it.
     
    ... Well, that was kinda a major inconvenience (Spelling?). I had to walk down the street back to my [uNDISCLOSED RELATIVE]'s house to get my older [uNDISCLOSED RELATIVE] to get me the game. By this time, it had started raining heaps, so my [uNDISCLOSED RELATIVE] made me rush up there before it started getting worse. It did, but that was after we had gotten home... WITH BIOSHOCK!! WOO!
     
    Then it hit me (Well, not really) that I didn't have my PS3. SO I had to wait till today to play it. So far, i'm really impressed. I haven't gotten too far through it, but it's really fun beating away crazed citizens with a wrench! :mrgreen: Can't wait to get stuck into it when I don't have a heap of homework.

    Bring it on, Hackers!

    By Dax,

    Well, apparently i'm on the magical list that some fool is going to 'hack' me on New Years. If you haven't heard of this, search around and you'll find some info on it. But anyway, I doubt they'll get me, or anyone in fact. But just in case, I have done some stuff to my account to make sure they wont get any valuables. :thumbsup:
     
    I am a bit nervous, although I know it's a hoax, there's always that little bit of doubt, and probably for the better, i'm going to lay of RuneScape for the rest of the year. Hopefully by then, i'll have gotten some more experience in GTA CW, and will have gotten better at it.
     
    That's all from me! See ya next time.
  19. Dax
    Weeeell. I have 88 Summoning now, and whilst accomplishing this feat, I stumbled upon possibly the GREATEST CONSPIRACY EVER. The Summoners of the world have plotted against me, thinking no-one would notice, I have. Here it is.
     


     
    SAME CAMERA ANGLES. THE LADDER MUST CIRCLE AROUND. THE OBELISK MUST BE SO FAR UNDERGROUND THAT WE NEED A CIRCLING LADDER. OR, THERE'S ANOTHER FLOOR! :shock:
     

     
    And there's the level. Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    I plan to make these 'reviews' monthly, just 'cause, they won't be anything amazing, but I enjoy doing them, and a bit of writing doesn't hurt anyone. Bit late, because I was lazy, and I decided to add in Free Trade and Wilderness, just 'cause I can.
     
    King of the Dwarves.
    I, being a quest nut, love all quests, so this was a good way to start the month, and the year. The story was good, which is what I mainly look for in a quest. It got a bit unlikeable with the troll shenanigans, but I think it'll tie in well in the end, albeit being random as hell in this quest. The boss was pathetic, and I was unhappy about this.The rewards were really give away exp, which is sad. But the gravestone is good, and I like having a big rock. Just 'cause.The finale looks like it's set up well, so that'll be good. How they're going to link the Red Axe to the Penguins and all that will also be good to see.
     
    Overall: 6/10. The story keeps it up, but the diffculty and randomness puts it down.
     
    Nex.
    Well, I have basically nothing to say about her, her drops are insanely overpriced, well, for me at the moment, and I have no bossing skills whatsoever, so I can't get there.
     
    Nor do I want to embarrass myself.
     
    Overall: N/A/10. I can't give an opinion on something I have nothing to do with! Go find a pro!
     
    Hati Wolf.
    Well, for a level 654, it kinda sucks, a team of four of us killed it quickly. This made me sad, and three of us got the drop on the first go (The fourth, was an annoying pure who swore and complained a lot, so I was happy when I heard he didn't get the drop). I like the helm a lot, and the gloves bonuses were good fun to use up, giving me some good exp in my Melees, which I plan to max out some time (When I'm not side-tracked doing other things).
     
    Overall: 6/10. Kind of boring, the rewards were good, sure, but the boss was lacking and could have been much better.
     
    Wilderness and Free Trade.
    One thing's for sure about this update, it made RuneScape seem so much happier, past the begging and the scams, everyone on the whole just seems so happy. I'm not too worried about the Wilderness, as I've never been a PKer, and I don't think I ever will, but they've moved everything I'd go to the Wilderness for now out, really. More to my liking is free trade. Loads of fun. :thumbup:
     
    Overall: 8/10. The annoying PKers, the scammers, the beggars, the bots all drag this down, but the happiness, Free trade, everything like that brings it up.
     
    Catch you next month, which looks to be one hell of a good one, ~Dax.
  21. Dax
    Well, August is coming to an end, and all the planned updates have been released. I'm bored at the moment so I'm going to chuck out a review for you guys. :mrgreen: Now, the BTS mentioned the Void quest, the Occult floors and Conquest. Plus the put back Treasure Trails update. So that's what I'm going to review.
     
    Treasure Trails Update.
    Now, my bank hasn't been graced by one of those amazing Elite clues, though I was trying to get them daily for a while there. Since the update, there was a rush of everyone, really, to go off and try their luck. While I never expected anything amazing like Third Age, I was expecting God armour and other high priced items (Though not as highly priced at Third Age). Since the update, I've obtained one new item (Rune H4 platelegs) and multiple God items and rune trimmed items (Rune platesbody (t), rune plateskirt (g), Guthix full helm). It's pushed up my average clue worth with those items alone. Though, as expected, firelighter rates shot up. Also, it was good that rushing for clues finished up the first set of Court cases for me. :thumbsup:
     
    Overall rating: 7/10. Lots of fun with guaranteed rewards, and some of the new stuff (Mainly Ornamental kits, not that I can get them) look awesome. :thumbup:
     
    A Void Dance.
    I'm a man of my quests, the first Achievement cape I got was the Quest cape, and I've never looked back. I loved all the quests (Yeah, even One Small Favour, that shizz was lulzy) and this one is no exception. I ended up letting the pest live, seeing as I'm that nice kinda guy (Yeah, I let the dude live to, but who cares about him?). Personally, I can't wait for the finale, shall be good fun. I wanted to see the mysterious guy in this one too, but alas, he didn't appear to us. Or so I think... :shock:
     
    Overall rating: 7/10.
     
    The Occult Floors.
    *looks at Dungeoneering level* Oh shi-. I'm not really in the place, or should I say level, to review the actual floors, so I'll have to settle with the rewards and the few new rooms they've put into the lower floors, not that I can remember any apart from the Poltergeist.
    Herbicide - Nowhere near worth the cost. Maybe if I'd bought everything before it, and it cost half as much as it does now.
    Magical blastbox - I'm no Mage, I'll range before I mage, so I have no use for this at all. :-|
    Ring of vigour - With a +3 Strength bonus, and a chance to save some Special bar, this looks like the only respectable thing that came from batch 2/1.5/whatever the hell you want to call it of the rewards. Though I'm still saving for a Chaotic Rapier, or anything that's better by Batch 2, 'cause I don't think I'll have the level by then.
    Scroll of rigour - I think I'd only buy this for completion's sake. To fill the Prayer tab, otherwise, it's way overpriced for my use.
     
    Overall rating: 6/10. I'm sure it'll get better by the time I get down to those floors/get to buy some of those rewards.
     
    Conquest (and clothes).
    I've only played one game of Conquest, so maybe I should have held back on the review before I came out with it, but meh. I do like the minigame/activity/whatever the hell you want to call it, and I'd like to get back to it sometime soon. Last time they told us to control units, it sucked arse, I'm very happy it didn't go down the same path as Mobilising Armies, as someone once said 'If you say you enjoy MA, you're lying.'
    On the clothes side of things, I'm saying update of the month. :mrgreen: It's really epic, the choices are everywhere. From the fifty people I've seen dressed like Spartans, or the few naked guys I saw around Varrock, it's lulzy and awesome. Plus I went pretty well at matching my character to look like Jak from Jak 2.

    See the resemblance? :anxious:
     
    Conquest rating: 7/10, should also get better.
    Clothing rating: 10/10. WINNNNNNNNNN.
     
     
    And that's my review, my opinions, so if you don't like them, gtfo. :thumbsup:

    Daxter wants to go Slay.

    By Dax,

    Slayer update sounds promising, I haven't got the time to get on RuneScape yet, but I do know that i'll be doing my tenth and fiftieth tasks from Kuradel. But most of the time, I will stay loyal to Lapalok. The new dungeon is sounding good. Another placde to find some of those monsters has got to be helpful, despite the fact I can't get all of them with my 80 Slayer. :P
     
    My RuneScaping has been consisting of Thieving until I get bored or distracted, then doing a Slayer task, then back to Thieving. :thumbsup:
     
    I finish school for this year tomorrow. :) :o Going to a mate's place afterwards for a small-ish party. Which will consist of much PS3. :thumbup:
     
    That's it for now. Bye!
  23. Dax
    Well, I got bored and saw a Facebook status of my friends, who is going through A-Z of his music, one every day. So I decided to make my own list for the hell of it.
     
    A - Agalloch. A band I was randomly linked to, I don't know what it is about them, but I really like them. Their songs are quite long, which I don't like, but they are really good, in my eyes at least. Favourite song: Not Unlike the Waves.
     
    B - Billy Joel. I'll admit, I only have one of his best ofs, but I'm trying to hit as many letters as possible. When I first got his best of, I knew ALL of the songs on it, maybe the only reason I like him so much. I still don't know where I heard them. Fave song: Everybody Loves You Now.
     
    C - The Cat Empire. An Aussie band. They're pretty damn awesome. (Well, they must be if I have all their studio albums and plan to get their next) Fave song: The Car Song.
     
    D - Dream Theater. They're just epic, and that's all I really want to say. Go listen to them now. Fave song: As I Am.
     
    E - Eagles of Death Metal. Located through my obsession of QotSA, I started listening to these guys. They're nowhere near as good as QotSA, so don't expect much if you know QotSA. Fave song: Stuck in the Metal or Heart On. I haven't decided yet.
     
    F - Fatboy Slim. Ok, here's another 'I only have the best of, but I'm filling letters if possible' one. Fave song: Weapon of Choice.
     
    G - Gnarls Barkley. I heard Crazy, looked for the album, found the Smiley Face single, really liked it, got the album, got obsessed. Fave song: Whatever or Smiley Faces.
     
    H - Ok, I've got nothing. I've got HIM, but they're not that great, not good enough to be here.
     
    I - Nothing again. :(
     
    J - Jimi Hendrix or Johnny Cash. I can't decide which one I rather. Fave JH song: Fire. Fave JC song: Ring of Fire. What is it with J artists and fire?
     
    K - Kyuss. Somewhat of a start of QotSA, I suppose. I got these guys a fair while after QotSA, but they ended up being a lot better than I expected. Still not as good as QotSA, though. Fave song: Green Machine.
     
    L - Led Zeppelin. Is there any competition for L? Led Zeppelin are just epic. Fave song: Achille's Last Stand.
     
    M - Marilyn Manson. Ever since I heard Coma White (Thanks Crusader), I got a bit obsessed. Coma White is now one of my favourite songs of all time.
     
    N - Nine Inch Nails. I don't know when I got 'em, but when I did, I was a very happy man. Fave song: My Violent Heart.
     
    O - The Offspring. They're just that band that everyone seems to like, and why not? They make everything awesome. Especially cranking their songs at 5:30 in the morning heading to Canberra. Fave song: Vultures.
     
    P - Polkadot Cadaver. One day, my sister came home. She came with this band and gave it to me. My life changed there and then. They were stuck in my head for the next month. And long after. Fave song: Long Strange Trip to Paradise.
     
    Q - Queens of the Stone Age. Never saw that coming, did you? I have NFSUG2 to thank for this obsession. Ever since I heard In My Head, well, obsession took control. QotSA is now my favourite band, and probably always will be. Fave song: Autopilot.
     
    R - Red Hot Chili Peppers. Possibly the first band to get me into music. The first song I heard was Californication, and I was determined to buy their album. I did, and it became my first album I ever bought. They were my favourite band until QotSA came around. Fave song: Knock Me Down.
     
    S - System of a Down. Bam. First listen, obsession again. Fave song: Roulette.
     
    T - Them Crooked Vultures. Josh Homme? Dave Grohl? John Paul Jones? Is this possible? Much obsession ensued after hearing this. Fave song: Mind Eraser, No Chaser.
     
    U - Nothing. :(
     
    V - Nothing again. :(
     
    W - Weird Al, to be honest. Hehe. He's just too awesome. Fave song: Albuquerque.
     
    X, Y, Z. Nothing. :'(
     
     
     
    There's quite a list of bands. If you read it all, have a cookie. Suggest me some bands, if you wish. :thumbsup:
     
    Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    First Third Age Clue. :3

    By Dax,

    Yeah, only Vambraces, but it's still really good. Good for someone who's been on a spending spree. :thumbsup: RuneScape's present to me for finishing year 11. :P
     
    Catch you next time, ~Dax.

    First trip of Mages.

    By Dax,

    I decided, out of boredom, to head on down to Spiritual Mages.
    Here are the trips results.
     

     
    Selling two Boots off on the G-E, but selling my first pair to a friend. ;) The first two came in before 60 kills, while the third pair came in at around 220. The reason for having remaining Potions is that I was getting bored. :ohnoes:
     
    That all for now, catch you next time. ~Daxter.
