congrats! I bought a blue for 20m when they were about 20.5 (guy didnt know his prices) so i sold the blue, bought a green, and now im barrowing some more for a red mask and a matching robe outfit (like in my sig, thats what I have now). keep the mask for a while, you will be happy you did :P

258ForLife> no, i have 50k maples nad 26k yews. THAT will get me to 99. the 26k yews will get me from 93-99. elucin8er> I have no idea why you cant see them, I'm able to see them all.

1 more track meet. after that, me getting 99 fast or not depends on if i get the job I applied for. I guess i will just have to wait and see. until then, its slow leveling.

well i wouldnt give up my friends on rs for anything, but i guess it all depends on what you mean by powerful :-k

you forgot the main point of how to rate a guide: is it necessary? your guide gets a .01/10

very possible. The only thing is What you spend your time doing. Of course, you could stake, go to dk's, barrows, etc. But, doing so would bring up the question, what do you mean by scratch? straight from tutorial island all the way to 140m (or what ever the price has risen to in 4 months) on the 17th of august? or scracth being someone with moderate levels? then of course, we need to set what 'moderate' levels are. having your characted leveld different could infact make you very rich, or very poor. having staker stats could potentially get you your phat in a night, although very unlikely. having 91 rc could get you your phat in the 4 months easily. having a bank with 1k super restores, full guthans and 100k slayer dart casts with a characted that has all 99 combat stats could easily do the job up at DK's with a little bit of luck and knowledge. So i guess it all matters on what you mean by 'scratch'

lol, this is really old guys... but.... Tomdavies90> you asked why use the armor and not the weapon? at the time of this picture, I had just bought guthans and had about 1m in the bank. I was using guthans to barrow in without the spear because i am too afraid of losing it. I didnt have any other armor but guthans, so i used and left the spear in bank... like i explaind the page before, and on the first page. Lucas> i thought it was somewhat ironic at the time. Best and worst drop from barrows in the same run on a double drop? maybe just coincidence. take it how you will. To update everyone interested, I sold my guthans and bought torags. I used some of the left over money to buy 99 firemaking which is now in progress. about 50k maples and 26k yews to burn and all sitting in my bank. It feels good, but I still have a lot to do to get my goal done.

It only goes up to 100/99 when you've used the emote :thumbsup: Congratulations on 99 hp mate =] what an achievement. Well in that case, Congrats! Good job on your double 99's and good luck on 21 more :wink:

I've gotten mad at a few things, but i haven't broken anything. I've cursed under my breath though :-$ i did underground, and the elven series up to roving elves with the minimum agility level. That was annoying, but I didn't fail too many times. Spent about an hour trying to get to iban himself tho. those walkways were soooo stupid.

Question: Why do you only have 99 hp while wearing the cape? Shouldn't you have 100/99 hp while wearing the cape? Same goes with your 99 att cape.

29 mroe to go... Doesn't seem like much... but 12.3m more xp left :P

The only set I havent had is ahrims. I don't like to train magic in conventional ways, so its usually not at the top of my list to buy. 1) Dharoks: I have trained for hours in this up at the monkey guards and got a lot of xp fast. 2) Torags: Good, cheap defence is very nice. Comes in handy when you dont have enough money for any other set. 3) Guthans: Healing is so nice. I can recall a trip up to wallaskis with a friend when he was trying to get a piece of bone or something to make some of the mage armor. I was able to stay up there for THREE whole days training on magic based NPC's. This trip secured my confidence in the set. 4) Verac: Very good for PvP and KQ. I've used the set for both reasons. I will probebly buy the set again once my stats get a bit higher to use it in barrows, but until then, I will use my torags. 5) Karil: Same range bonus as black dhide, but it is great at barrows with the extra magic defense when i'm ranging ahrim and NOT praying helps a lot. I don't use the coif tho. it's pretty much useless and takes up space in my inventory. 6) Ahrim: Never used, but I'm sure I will soon.

Hey, really? i have to burn the logs? W0wzorz, never knew! i thought i just had to bank it! :roll: And this isnt a blog. its a goal of mine. Under the description of the forum, i believe i'm in the right forum, not to mention being in the right forum for a week now. kthxbai!

havent been on in a while because of track and such. as soon as track ends in about 2 weeks i should be fming a lot. im planning on having 99 fm by halfway through the summer.

The main point is to get your prayer bonus as high as possible so you CAN pray on ahrim, and even up to verac if you have a high enough bonus and get some good shots on the first few brothers.

True, but when you are maging verac, torag, and guthan without prayer, all the defence helps. and you dont really need a big magic bonus anyway. the brothers have SUCH a bad magic defence, the extra 3-5 magic bonus wont make a noticeable difference.

i'm having trouble with this. i paste the code into notepad, save to my desk top, and when i click to open, it just opens the notepad document. i know im missing a big step, i just dont know what one. ::EDIT:: -.- nevermind. i forgot the .htm thanks for the guide!

To start off, there is one thing I want to say. Prayer. Prayer is so helpful in Barrows. It can save you from losing all your items, totaling anywhere from 100k to 100m depending on what you bring, but it can also be a costly annoyance that tugs at your pocketbook when you are trying to do barrows efficently. With this guide, I hope to explain and share my barrows method that uses prayer to its outward limits, while still giving you the upperhand in gaining profit. First of all, I am not going to explain in detail on how to get to barrows or any of the other junk that guides usually come with. If you don't know how to get to the barrows, then you don't need to be using this guide. Use another guide, and build up to this method. I will, however, be offering tips through text on the best way to get to the barrows and how to use my method efficently. ___________________________________________________________ Stats Needed *Of course 43 prayer is NEEDED to finish barrows. However, the higher the better. I recomend 55 to be the minimum level for this method. *This method is on the basis of using Magic Dart/Slayer Dart so 55 slayer is needed, however, it can be done with other spells, from fire bolt with chaos gauntlets, all the way up to ice barrage if you wish. *A high defence is recomended because even though we are using prayer, you will be fighting most of the brothers without prayer to protect yourself. *Medium-Medium high range level. about level 70ish should do. 70+ if you follow my method exactly. *75+ Attack and Strength *Good magic level. 70+ is recomended. However, it can be done with level 50. *50 Construction ___________________________________________________________ Items, Quests, and Cash Needed *Priest in Peril (access to canifis) *Any quest you need to get to barrows faster (EX: In Search Of the Myrque) *Good armor (explained later) *Decent weapons (dds, whip, hopefully a karils crossbow, but that can wait unti you get it from a drop. Replace karils with MSB and rune arrows until you get a karils) *Enough money to buy enough food for multiple trips (plan for 100 trips dry, because believe it or not, you can get dry streaks and not being prepared for it is a bad idea) *Ability to make in your house, someone elses house, or buy home teletabs. You can bring runes if you feel you dont need the extra 3 food spots ___________________________________________________________ The Method in Theory For now, I will explain the method. It will be easier to understand when you are down in the crypts for yourself. 1) Start in Canifis bank. Get outfit and inventory ready as instructed later. 2) Get to the crypts in whatever way you see fit. I prefer the bar basement route. 3) Fight brothers in order as follows with outfit as instructed. ---A) Dharok (Mage outfit #1, Protect prayer) ---B) Karil (Mele outfit #1, Protect prayer) ---C) Ahrim (Range outfit #1, Use rest of prayer. Prayer should be used up by now, if not, you are lucky) ---D) Verac (Mage outfit #2, No prayer) ---E) Torag (Mage outfit #2, No prayer) ---F) Guthan (Mage outfit #2, No prayer) 4) When you find the tunnel brother, skip him for now, and move on to next brother on the list. 5) Enter tunnel(Mele outfit #1). If you have Dharok, Verac, Torag, or Guthan in the tunnel use a safespot (discussed later) 6) If you are using Magic Dart/Slayer Dart, run to the door to the chest room, open it up, run back out into the open, get KC to 13, and run back in to open chest. 13 KC is best for this method because it maximizes runes for slayer dart, and usually gives back a good ammount of chaos and bolt racks in the process. 7) Teleport to house (preferably by teletabs that are discussed later), pray at house alter, and teleport to canifis VIA house teleportal. 6) Restart at Step 1. ___________________________________________________________ Inventory and Outfits Inventory Mage #1 Mage #2 Mele #1 Range #1 If you have Verac's helm, brassard, and skirt, use those. They have a good rpayer and defence bonus when equiped. They are well worth the cost. I recently bought 99 firemaking, so I can't afford it right now, but it is well worth the expense. Inventory Discussion Whip: used to ahcieve 13 KC fast. Can be replaced with Dscim if you don't like the risk or are training strength. DDS: Special used on Karil. If Karil is in tunnel, use DDS special on Ahrim. Your special bar WILL regenerate 90% if not 100% by the time you find Karil in the tunnel. Black Dragonhide Body: Magic protection from Ahrim. Wear this when ranging Ahrim. Use Karil's Leather Body if you have it. Karil's Leatherskirt: Magic protection from Ahrim. Wear this when ranging Ahrim. Rune Kite Shield: Wear this when instructed in the "The Method In Theory" section. Good protection from everything but magic. Karil's Cross-bow: Excellent penetrating power against Ahrim. The ammo for this weapon is Bolt Racks. Spade: If you don't know what this is for, please use a beginners guide :P Monkfish: You eat, You heal. As simple as that. These heal 16 each. If you think yuo can get away with using lobsters, feel free to. Im sure I can get away with using lobsters, But I feel more secure with Monkfish. Prayer Potion: You won't need to use this, but if there is a point at anytime durring your trip that you need to use it, it's there. Runes: Powers your Magic Dart/Slayer Dart spell. 1 cast uses 4 mind runes and 1 death rune. Home Teletab: 1 click teleportal device to your house. If you are smart, you will have an alter and a portal to canifis in your home. You may substitute anything in your inventory for something better/worse if you see fit. It's all up to you. I am merely providing the method. Make your trips reflect your style. Outfit Discussions Mage #1: Best prayer bonus with this outfit. Even with magic bonus of -25, you hit very accurate because of the horrible magic defence the brothers have. Mage #2: Used when fighting mele brothers when not praying. Good defence. Low magic bonus, but as said before, you still hit very accurately. Mele #1: Used on Karil/in tunnels. Shield can be used if prayer is ran out on Karil or if you are in the tunnel. Range #1: Used on Ahrim: Makes short work of him. ALWAYS have a ring of life equiped ___________________________________________________________ Safespots Safespots make it possible to not be hit by the mele brothers. Use them when you have them in the tunnels. This tip.it guide goes through all of them because I dont want to. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=487 ... r+blocking -Final Note: I know this looks like a few guides in this forum, but this one is directed more towards the harnesing of the prayer skill. It is a slight enhancement on certain methods used, and I hope it helps someone that is still looking for the right method for them. It took me a while to find this method and it took me a while to write this guide. All criticism, comments, questions, general posts, and advice is very helpful. Thanks.

104 combat 85 attack Back to firemaking for now.... I sold guthans and about 37k maples and bought roughly 26k yews. should make things go a bit faster...

about 26m had 21m, bought a blue mask off of forums for 20m (it was 25.5 at the time), sold for 25.5 and bought green right after that for 19.5. really good trades :P

+1 i give your bank a 9.5/10 you get a 10/10 when you buy a green mask or santa hat (preferably green mask because you can wear it with your guthix dhide :P ).

Bad: Recently lost whip in wild because i forgot to protect. Oh well, i went to barrows to get money back and got a spear for my next item, lol. Good: i was running from green dragons after a noob was tyring to pk me. i was out of food and poisoned with a ROL on. i run south and they chase me because they know i dont have any food. I have on redemption prayer, and heal. more poison hits, and i teleport away to lumby. i run into the castle and die in a higher floor. i run back and pick up my items 1 minute later. it was a good day :mrgreen:

actually that spec does not work on normal players, they max hit on a normal person is about 100 or so I think (thats not the max hit on monsters, as there are diferent ammulets etc that work better on diferent monsters) Z0MG J00 H4V3 100 HP! no seriously, the max hit on a human (as in a player character) is 99, max... 1 H17 K0! With a Saradomin Brew you can get your HP above maximum, to 118 if you have 99 HP. Also, you might be able to use the alter in the desert that raises your HP temporarily by 3 to get 121 Hp. +hp cape? so thats 122 if im not mistaken?

I dont think i would pc for levels unless they were mage, range, or prayer. I like to train mele on actual monsters to get drops/slayer levels.
