That's awesome, congrats on all of that :) sucks to see they haven't fixed/explained the task go reward yet either...

Also on my spins for my DIY account, I got 2x 250k :) Pics are in my blog on blogscape, didn't want to copy more boring spin pics over here.

Had a great productive day today! Levels, quests, luck, and items! :) I started off with farming runs and more thieving for seeds. I got lucky, and ended up stealing a Fellstalk seed! Now I have one of every herb seed, which is good for placeholders in my bank. It'll be forever and a day before I can use it though... Anyways, I ended up with 56 thieving. After that, I got bored, and saw that SOF was giving out 5x GP rewards. So, I headed off to do some quests! I finished All Fired up, got a spin from thieving, and with my 2 dailies had 5 spins. I spun the wheel, and got 250k! Nothing could make me more happy :) Except one thing... getting 250k AGAIN!!! What a day for spins!! On the pictures, you can see they are different spins because the amount of spins left. I had 680k in my money pouch, so I decided to splurge and buy some rock climbing boots for the +2 strength, at 75k. Also got a FM level with all fired up. [hide=Fellstalk] [/hide] [hide=Lucky Spins] [/hide] After that, I decided to do Garden of Tranquility because I was already in Varrock castle, the start point was right there, and I need it for Varrock/Fremmy medium tasks, among other things. Got that quest setup and going, and while my marigolds, onions and cabbage were growing, I needed something to do. I went and got a slayer task, which gave me 69 banshees. I was reading their drops, when I remembered I could use a salve amulet for a big DPS boost. Checked my quest list, Haunted Mine was still there after Filter, so off I went! Quest was quick and easy, giving me 20 salve amulets. The 22k Strength reward also gave me 54 strength, and close to 55. I was also left with 150 xp to 56 hp, which I'll get tomorrow. [hide=All Fired up] [/hide] [hide=Haunted Mine] [/hide] [hide=Garden of Tranquility][/hide] After that, I finished everything up with Garden of Tranquility. Nothing from those 4 spins sadly :( Although, I did get a rare Fish Mask on my main. I was only about 100xp off of 44 farm (and irits!), so I went and did a farming run and got that. Now it's bedtime, only 6 hrs of work tomorrow then I can quest more! Oh yeah, somewhere in that mix I used some of my farmed herbs, and got 3 herblore levels to 37! Just a little more xp, then I'll be making Prayer Potions with my ~70 farmed ranarrs :) Levels: 56 Thieving 44 Firemaking 44 Farming 54 Strength 37 Herblore Quests All Fired Up Garden of Tranquility Haunted Mine Night!

Today had about the same, if not a little less playtime than yesterday. However, got quite a bit done! Got my last 3 hunting levels, to 57, to get my gloves of silence :) Quickly made 30ish of those. Also got 40 farming somewhere in there. After that, I went go go get some more seeds! Only did one inventory because I need sleep, but I got 55 thieving. 41 Farming right before bed. Since I finished all my Novice quests last weekend, I think i'm going to blitz out a bunch of intermediate quests this weekend. I'm just going to go down the top of the list, not do any specific quests. Levels 57 Hunter 55 Thieving 41 Farming [hide=Level Pics] [/hide]

Couple days ago, might keep going to 97/98 cause it's easy [hide=95 cook] [/hide]

Xp waste :( have fun!

Not a very exciting day update-wise today, but i'm setting myself up good for some later things! I was going to do tasks, but for some reason they nerfed/bugged the money you get from tasks. It's now 1/4 of what you got before. There's nothing about this in the patch notes or anything, so I assume it's a bug. So, I decided to put off all of my tasking off until later when it's fixed/confirmed :( sad day, I want those boots/cape! I wanted to do some farming runs, but I had no seeds. So, I met Oddish DIY at Ardougne and stole a few with him :) After seeing his gloves of silence, I wanted some! I fail a lot, at 53 thieving, and it gets annoying. So off to falconry I went. Only had about an hour of playtime total tonight, so I only got one level in each of the skills I trained Tomorrow I'll hopefully get 57 hunter, and then hunt dark kebbits for their furs until 58 for nature implings. After that, more thieving and seed gathering :) I think the goal I'll be working towards for a bit will be all skills 40+. Levels 39 Farming 54 Hunter 54 Thieving Night!

Yay you're back! It's been a while :) The final :) fight was really easy, I killed him at 50 range with steel arrows before my prayer ran out.

Breaking Bad is the best tv show of all time, followed by Dexter, so watch those :) Good luck DIYing, those first few levels are a ton of fun!

So, I made a blog on the RSOF today! I'm mostly just gonna copy/paste the text from here though, this will still be my main one. Here's the QFC and link - [qfc]48-49-686-63803269[/qfc] Didn't have a lot of time because of work today. Although, I worked 10 hours today so I can get off early Thursday/Friday :) I focused on fishing while moving data over to my RSOF Blog, and got 61 Fishing. Upped my stash of lobsters by 300ish, which is good cause I'm out of trout now! Food goes fast with slayer/quests :( After that, I decided it was high time for some tasks. I originally wanted to do Fremennik easy and medium, but I need 2 hunter levels and Garden of Tranquility for that. So instead, I just did the easy Fremennik and Ardougne tasks. Boots and cape are nice, and I got 6k agility xp. For ardy tasks, you have to turn in penguin points, which I had 12 of. That got me 14k agility xp! :blink: So, I got 2 agility levels today too :) Plus a strength level from SOF. Tomorrow will probably be more tasks, or task requirements! Slayer if I don't feel like it :) Night!

Yeah, I actually cleaned out a lot of the crap (50 items) right after that picture :P

That's awesome! Would you mind posting your setup and inventory so your fellow DIY noobs can have a go at it? :D

Another good day of progress before I go back to work for the week. Started off by getting 54 WC done! Kind of slow with an adamant hatchet, but I probably won't have to cut anything else until I get a rune one. After that, I did Fremennik Trials. It was a pretty long quest, I though it'd be shorter. After that, I did Fremenik Isles. Shorter than trials, but the boss fight was a little tough. I ended with about 200hp and no food, but I made it, and claimed my Helm of Neitiznot! I also did olaf's quest for the def xp. But, I didn't have the level to wear my new helm, so I needed to get 55 def... and that means Slayer! That's what the rest of the night consisted of. I also got a mystic hat at basilisks, to upgrade my gear! [hide=pics] [/hide] Quests - Fremennik Trials Fremennik Isles Olaf's Quest Levels - 52 Strength 55 Defence 55 HP 44 Prayer 34 Construction 49 Slayer 47 Crafting 55 Woodcutting

Congrats on 1600 total, big accomplishment! :) I know what you mean about not grinding skills for 99s and keeping them even, that's why my main is the way it is :P Also for range, try out tune darts! They're cheap, and faster than anything you listed on lower defense things. Good luck!

Congrats on finally getting the crafting level! Lots of good unlocks :)

When that happens to me, usually just resizing the window fixes it.

So, had a good day with tons of progress! I started off the day by finishing off the rest of the Novice Quests! I did six quests overall. No news or stories about them or anything, here's the list and a couple pictures! Rune Mechanics Sheep Herder Song from the Depths A Souls Bane Tower of Life Tale of the Muspah [hide=Quests] [/hide] After this, I was thinking of either doing tasks, more quests, or the Fremenik Isles. All of these invlove killing things, and I desperately wanted to weild dragon stuff. So, I set off to get 60 attack :) I was 55 at the start. Naturally, I wanted to do all of this through slayer. I had a lot of tasks - pyrefiends, cockatrices, basilisks, banshees, grotwyrms, desert lizards, harpie swarms etc. I think I did like 13 tasks. Getting 55-60 Attack (100k xp) took a LOT longer than I though. I assumed about 3 hours, but it ended up taking more like 7 :( another really sucky thing about it all was 12/13 of my tasks of ~100 monsters each had the chance to drop level 2 clues, but I didn't even get one!! Nevertheless, I got 60 attack and was able to weild my dragon scimitar, mace, and dagger that I bought. Also, just a tip as I didn't know, there is now a monkey in the sword shop in varrock that sells dragon scimitars! During slayer, I also got two gear upgrades - steel and mystic boots! I think I got 3 combat levels today. [hide=Slayer, levels, and drops] [/hide] After all of this slaying, I had a lot of loot, which filled up my bank! Never saw that coming. So, I decided to take a picture of all the stuff before I sold/alched a bunch of it :) here it is! After this, I sold all the leather/iron/steel/bronze/crappy stuff in my slayer tab, and alched a good bit of my pouches, using wizard mind bombs at 53 mage. [hide=Bank] [/hide] Here's all the levels today - 72 Combat 60 Attack! 52 Defence 55 HP 54 Mage 31 Construction 34 Herblore 40 Fletching 48 Slayer 49 WC 43 FM So, here's the general plan for the future. I'd like to get more quests/tasks done, bigger skill base, and better armor. It's kind of in order of what I'll do... Fremenik Isles (trials and 54 wc needed) Ardy Easy Tasks Fremmy Medium Tasks All other easy tasks Allskills 40+ All intermediate quests 80 RC All skills 50+ 85 Combat Slayer Kills All Experienced Quests 58 Slayer, black mask Night!

^Actually about 45 seconds, easily. Also, this is in One Piercing Note, pretty weird...

Kaida - Thank you, and thank you :) Today, I continued my questing quest! I did these novice quests - Myths of the White Lands Elemental Workshop 1 Fur 'n' Seek Let Them Eat Pie Monk's Friend Observatory Quest Perils of Ice Mountain Rag and Bone Man Recruitment Drive One Piercing Note Phew, that's a lot! Although, only 6 to go until I'm done with Novice Quests :D Myths of the white lands was annoying, along with recruitment drive. I did get a few levels here and there. I'll post some random quest complete/levels at the end of the post. Although, I don't know what Jagex was thinking on this one in One Piercing Note - looks a bit...odd... to me [hide=??] [/hide] It was a good quest, but I didn't really like the content - it felt a little dark. Anyways, here's the levels I got today (hope I wrote them all down here!) 45 Agility 53 Range 46 Crafting 47 Woodcutting 38 Farming Not many, because questing takes a lot of time and not much rewards from novice quests [hide=pictures] [/hide]

[Very Late] Congrats on 99 mining! Awesome skill to have :) also, *try to* have fun superheating all those bars :P

Either that, or go do something fun :P Congrats!

Haha yeah :P I'm not 100% sure if that's right, but oh well. And I wonder what caused that :blink: You already know this, but I was messaging you during that time. Anyone have any ideas? So, even though today I had a lot of playtime, I only have 1 picture! Did get a lot done though. Started off with finishing my vampyre slayer task, which might have got me a level idk. Then, I was going to stop slayer, but I got lesser demons and I wanted to upgrade my addy helm. Did that whole task with range/mage, but no addy helm :( got a couple range/mage/slayer levels and... 1200 total!!! [hide=1200 total] [/hide] I got pyrefiends assigned after this, but I don't think I'll do that good against them with only green/blue dragonhide and 50 def/mage, so that's later. After that, I decided that my quest points were too low. So, quest tab -> order by difficulty -> filter -> hide done -> go questing!! Didn't take any completion pictures, because they're all novice quests. Here's the list... Black Knight Fortress Buyers and Cellars - First subquest - Second subquest (great item rewards!) Clock Tower Dwarf Cannon Eagle's Peak Here's all the levels today: 55 Attack 52 Range 52 Mage 44 Slayer 53 Hunter 44 Agility 37 Summoning 53 Thieving 44 Crafting 52 HP I've also thought of some goals! I'd really like a Neitiznot helm, so I need to do Freminik Isles. All I need for that is Freminik trials, 54 WC and 55 Def. I don't really want to train def until I get 60 attack and a dragon scimitar, though. I'm also going to do Olaf's quest for the 12k def xp. I had another goal, but I forgot it :oops: Other than that, keep going down the quest list! Night :)

If you have enough slayer points built up, its possible if you skip every non cannonable task. I think I'm around 300, but I'll still try my best! 95 RC, gonna switch and get a different 95 now. [hide=95RC] [/hide]

Hi, I was doing Buyers and Cellars on my DIY account. I got really lucky at PP, so I have a Black Ibis top. When I was turning in the solidified fire, I got bonus xp because I had my top on. It might be a good idea to put in the guide that if you have any xp-boosting gear, to wear it before you turn in the stones. Here's a picture for proof. You're supposed to get 1200 for each turn in.
