Angelized

I like having a new banner every month. They've been really good-looking so far and it's more interesting than just a plain banner all the time.

Favorites: Slayer, Farming, Summoning, All Combat Skills Least Favorites: Fletching, Mining, Smithing, Firemaking

Using mangled bones is DEFINITELY easier and faster than chewed bones. (Unless you're incredibly lucky.) I think it's just the Confused Barbarian that drops them. I tried getting mangled bones by rummaging (which also requires luck) and killing the other types of Barbarian's but I didn't get anything. The Confused Barbarian dropped them on the first kill. :)

I'd actually say cosmic runes through the abyss. At 59 runecrafting you can make double cosmics and they sell for around 147 each so you'd make 294 for each essence. That's about the same as laws and you make runes much faster. You can wear armour and have a pickaxe too which helps getting through the abyss faster.

Prayer armour + Protect from Melee is the best way. I once did a task of them ranging from safespots but it was REALLY slow.

Would using an amulet of glory to teleport to Edgeville and then using the fairy ring to go to Canifis (and then use the Myreque tunnel) work? There's more quests involved but none are very hard or long. 50 Construction + Desert Treasure is *really* worth it, though. Edit: Oh, I didn't see the mention of fairy rings in the post. #-o Oh, well.

The new diaries sound great, really looking forward to the Fremminik one. (Although I hadn't considered that killing the DKs might be on the list... Never done that before.) New hair and stuff is nice but the best thing? Christmas quest means I don't have to get 69 smithing (for Rocking Out) in order to do While Guthix Sleeps!!!! \ I think. *crosses fingers* Edit: Never mind, Rocking Out gives 2 quest points and the Christmas one will probably only give one. #-o

I still have eight more quests to do, one of them being MEII. And, of course, boosting stuff doesn't work for Rocking Out. Eight more smithing levels. :wall: Oh, well. I hope someone finishes and posts the rewards soon. *waits impatiently*

Quests are frustrating enough as it is, guides all the way! Well, with the exception of the really short and simple quests.

I do farming runs every couple hours (which doesn't really count as a chore) so getting seaweed and pineapples every day is easy. Sand is kind of out of the way but worth it for making molten glass. (Superglass Make FTW!) I used to get battlestaves daily but now that I don't charge orbs regularly it's not really worth it. I'll get some if I have orbs laying around. I top up MTK two or three times a week. I do Tears and Circus every week since you only have to do those once and they don't take very long. I used to only spot penguins if I saw one but now I've started hunting them on World 60. MUCH faster. :) I've never done stars or Bork and it's probably been a month since I've done the Jade Vine.
