Wow, I am amazed by the fact that you plan on putting up with mining gold all the way, and even so in the Crafting Guild (heard of the Brimhaven gold-ring?)... I've been going for 99 mining since the end of August and I've been mining in the desert quarry ever since. That's about 35-40k xp per hour. I'm getting 99 tomorrow (technically today, it's past midnight :P) and it feels like I've spent half a lifetime there (started at lvl 85). You aiming for 99 in 2 months with that xp-rate is just crazy in my opinion, don't forget real-life! :P (No offence intended) And btw (long since I've been on these forums...), did you do 63-99 smithing all the way with cannonballs? Best of luck with your goals mate!
