----------------- Introduction ----------------- Hi there Tip.It! I am new to the forums here so I'll start my telling you a bit about my history on Runescape. I started playing in 2006/7 when I discovered the game and it was not long before I was hooked and started making my adventures in Gielinor more frequent. I explored the free-to-play content extensively and finally decided to pay for membership. I continued to enjoy the membership advantages, working my way up to three figure combat levels before quitting for just over a year. On my return I continued to play my original account until realising that losing my wealth (I had given away my items to friends when I quit) had taken some of the fun out of the character and that I wanted a new challenge. So this brings us to the present day; I decided to venture once again into the world of Runescape and created a new character who I would hopefully level up efficiently and enjoyably utilising the experience gained from levelling a character before. I started my new character, Azanteus, in the New Year (2011). --------------------- Blog description --------------------- I will be posting my progress by using various progression factors (detailed below). This blog will be updated every 5 days (120 hours) of gameplay as indicated by my Adventurer's Log. Progression factors: Total Level: Quest Points: Tasks completed: Best of bank value: Music Unlocked: --------------------------------------- Milestone #1 - 5 days played --------------------------------------- Synopsis: I started Azanteus in the New Year, ready for a new and exciting challenge. A number of new additions had been added to the game since my last departure and nothing was more interesting to a low level character than the new dungeon in Lumbridge. I began to level my combat stats while searching for the mask of Dragith Nurn, obtaining a generous amount of starting cash as I did so from the drops I collected. I then focused on training combat with slayer assignments, in order to level this skill up and not leave it too late. A significant portion of my levels were achieved in order to work towards completing the tasks in the Lumbridge task set. I also focused on getting my magic level up, largely to facilitate teleporting around what is actually quite a large world. I am now focusing on levelling my range to obtain better armour as defence against Killerwatts, a task which had me grinding through food so quickly a requirement of ninety-eight kills seemed impossible. So, without further ado here are my progression statistics for this first milestone: Total Level: 811 Quest Points: 61/312 Tasks completed: 143/417 Best of bank value: 964k Music Unlocked: 193/760 Other interesting or significant achievements: -Obtained the mask of Dragith Nurn -Obtained a Cornucopia -Obtained full rune before 40 combat -Completed all F2P quests -Used a gilded altar to level prayer -Have not died yet ----------------------------------------- Milestone #2 - 10 days played ----------------------------------------- Synopsis: Coming soon.. Total Level: 1061 [+250] Quest Points: 147/312 [+86] Tasks completed: 163/417 [+20] Best of bank value: 6630k [+5666k] Music Unlocked: 316/760 [+123] Other interesting or significant achievements: -Can use slayer dart and broad projectiles -Have not died yet -------------- Final word -------------- Thank you for taking an interest in my blog and I hope you will check back again soon to see my progress.
