Fallstar

Got 99 herb, but construction is killing my hand :<

I say go for it, perhaps keeping a blog updated with your progress would help keep you on target (and would be an entertaining read). I suggest having some afk xp such as Artisans Workshop banked to give your hand and wrist a rest from agility though :wink: Besides, its not like you can't stop at any time if you need to.

I think the fact that a rant of the quality of the 2nd article made it into the Times is disappointing.

Jake is back.

You'll want a dragon defender for slayer, for other things it varies a lot. And a sara sword is probably your best bet to train strength atm.

In my opinion torva looks horrible now, probably why the platebody dropped 30m since the update. In general I like the look of the new armour though, although I still have the old full slayer helm for some reason.

An extra bind for completing an elite dungeoneering task set would absolutely have to require 120 as a bare minimum.

The ladder is the worst spot from all of them to lure to, it being hard to make a mistake there doesn't make it good. It only takes a couple of tries to see how luring works, and if you do make a mistake somehow, just stick your prayer back on.

Acquire some spirit seeds for your tree run too, you can plant 2 by 88 farming so you might as well. Should get a couple from an hour at gano's, or from kingdom. They're about 19k xp ea, so definitely worth it. Start making wines half an hour or so before bxp starts to finish off 99 cooking, other than that any buyable or hated skill.

Got mixed up, fury has +10 mage attack and +15 defence. So yeah you really want to get an ASN, its only 30k tokens and you'll use it all the time.

Thats not where you lure them. There is a spot where you dont get attacked. You basically stand at the side of the wedge of rock, rather than behind it. There are no spawns that can attack you here. Also with prayer renewals and flasks, you can effectively stay as long as you like. I did a 6+ hour trip and used only 2 flasks of prayer renewal (which is why you take a prayer boosting set as well). In addition, the +1 magic attack from the fury over an ASN isn't worth the loss of 15% damage even against a single lobster, bearing in mind the rock lobsters are extremely weak to magic attacks. http://puu.sh/jdZ0 If the video shows you standing at the blue spot to attack the lobsters, you want to stand in the red spot.

Pretty sure torstol runs come out to 4-5m/hr max at the moment? So saying you should be doing them regardless of what you're currently doing is a bit misleading. Having said that if you're looking into doing fruit bat scrolls for cash you should be doing regular herb runs too.

Got everything ready for 2k ovls, and 70k mahogany planks then a bunch of broads for when I get tired. Shame Dapledo quit, it would have been cool to see someone get 100m all.

And you would also get some nice blue charms from dark beasts.

Have had bxp supplies banked for 3 months, so it'll be good to finally get 99 herb and construction. Armour updates I'm a bit edgy about, Bandos and Nex gears look great already, if they ruin them it'll be a real shame.

That set up gives 11 free spaces for brew flasks = 66 doses, so you need 22 doses of super restore as a minimum so vials should be fine.

Both medium lamps I received, and about the dozen or so friends have gotten, have given a choice of any skill. The small one I got didn't though. (And was for prayer -.-) If the one huge lamp someone said they got was true, then that gave 350k xp at level 98. Saving 6-7hours runecrafting is pretty significant.

Gemeos2 worked out near enough the exact formula for torstol farming, this is the link to the spreadsheet. I can't find the video atm, but its on YT somewhere :/ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiNH0EgjDiPcdDNCeHNva3BwdnNpNFkyUUVmMGV1Nmc#gid=0 (I used the figures w/o remote farming, but if you were using that it would be about 85k. Its all in the spreadsheet)

Just to show how lucky you can get at Glacors, a guy I know got this a few days ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEIZxYrvDao&list=UU_CYP2ZRqyAHL0G_bcJfyrQ&index=8&feature=plcp I'm not saying you'll get this lucky, but people always talk about bad luck at Glacors so I thought I'd post this.

Having just looked up the spreadsheets, greater greenfingers is about 68k profit per run more(about 750k/hr more profit), so take a reasonable guess for how much you value your time at, and how much you value your loyalty points at and work from there. Edit: those figures are for torstol runs only.

When someone did the Maths on greenfingers it had only a minor effect. I would buy Jack of Trades as a priority, then wait for the rest of tier 4.

Has anyone seen huge lamps yet? I saw someone say they got 350k xp when used on a level 98 skill, but verification would be nice.

Bought purple 980, sold purple 1010, bought purple 978. #winning. Prices are absolutely crazy at the moment. I also can't believe Jagex put spirit shields in it, they were already manually adjusting sigil prices as they never updated, which caused the actual shields to drop relatively rapidly. Now this... Seems like they don't think these things through at all.

I believe it was something about dominion tower being faster than the method he posted. (It wasn't actually him, he uploaded a vid of a friend.) And about the picture of Season, thats not even that bad, ancient cavern waterfiends are more relaxed than CT ones. How do you know she didn't just want to chill for a bit?

All 99s definitely for me, it lets you experience a wider range of content.
