The Diary was quite easy. Took me about an hour and a half. : I like the Explorer Ring reward since it helps me with my skills. With the restore run option, I can speed up my collecting process for some of my seconds or restore run while I'm wcing/banking in Tai Bwo Wannai. With the (silly) Cabbage Port, I am able to get to Draynor w/o the use of a Glory and have closer access to my Faldor farming patch. I the Diaries.

I'd suggest getting lvl 2 in roles that you hate. (Healer is definitely a must to lvl.) Nobody wants a weak healer in the later waves. It'll kill ya. :lol: Defender is always frustrating so you can have your teamates shoot the remaining runners you can't get. All the other roles are pretty simple and straightforward. My last piece of advice is to find a team that knows what to do and won't desert. That's how I got my torso. :

I think the fastest way of killing Suqahs, although dangerous, is using a Cannon on them. Cannon the ones in the north eastern part of Lunar Isle. Be careful as some Suqahs on this part can use Mage. Other than cannoning or if you get hit too much by this method, there's always drinking a super set and killing the ones near the Astral RC altar. (This is slower because they are more spread out, but these guys can't use Mage)

Meleeing would be a good option although I do prefer ranging. :P When meleeing irons (with a slayer task) remember to bring a super set (or pure set) and your black mask/slayer helm. (Don't forget the anti-dragon shield!) Good luck. :

I have 89 Woodcutting and have tested Teaks and they give very good exp. If you do the Tai Bwo Wannai Teaks and decide to bank with Trading Sticks, they give around 55k-60k xp per hour. If you do Ape Atoll Teaks and drop (there are no randoms there btw if you equip a monkey talisman) these give about 65-75k per hour. These are based on my Wc lvl. Both methods are very good for exp and are better than willows in my opinion.

Definitely looking forward to the bank update. My bank has been somewhat cluttery and does not look good at all. Hopefully these "tabs" will help me in my bank's cleanliness. Also looking forward to the Achievement Diray. The past two diaries had great rewards which I use daily and I'm thinking that Lumbridge will be just as good. \

Definitely FIREMAKING! Besides the fact that it is a pure money waster, it gives almost no benefits. I despise Firemaking. :lol:

You could always cut down trees and light the lgos to make a fire. But, if you wanted a range, there is one on the first floor of Lumbridge Castle near the Chef. I don't know if you can cook beef there, but I think there is a fire in the Goblin house near the river fishing spots. Hope this helps.

This guide is great. It explains every aspect perfectly and is helping me on my way to 71 Smithing. : The Blast Furnace is great xp and good money as well. :thumbsup:

I've read the post and it doesn't seem to complicated. I'll learn more about it and try out the actual Blast Furnace today. Then, I'll get my levels in time. Thanks for the suggestion! :

Let's hope not too many people find out. :P Plant Pots are a very good source of cash. Although I prefer Bird Meats since they give me more cash, Plant Pots are a good alternative. Great Guide! :thumbsup:

I can't make addy bolts yet. (Only 69 Smithing) :P But, I've considered doing Gold Bars since it is a lot faster. I'll calculate the money loss if I were to do it and compare it with the irons.

I am currently going for 71 Smithing to finish up my Varrock Diary. My last task is to make an Addy Med Helm ( I plan to drink a Dwarven Stout (M) to boost me up to 73 Smith). I have two methods both of which have PROS and CONS. Help me decide what to do. : Method 1: SMITHING (NO SMELTING) Iron Bars into Knives PROS: Faster CONS: Loses money (Approximately 300k) Method 2: SMITHING (NO SMELTING) Steel Bars into Cannonballs PROS: Makes money (Approximately 500k) CONS: Slower As you can see, each is the opposite of the other. I don't plan to smelt ores into bars because it would slow me down even more. So, of these two methods which should I do? Or if someone has a different (Better) method, explain it to me. Thanks! :thumbsup:
