Only 7k exp/run... I get 9-11k per run and I am 76 thieving... I think you need to switch your strategy up a bit to maximize that exp/run. And if you can stand massive amounts of clicking then blackjacking is your best exp/hour option, at least up to 91. (Or so I hear) and then I believe PP and blackjacking are nearly identical in exp/hour.

Put it on the back burner.. when I finish off RC'ing (supposed to be sometime next year) Then I will use the profit to buy my Yellow Phat and outfit to match.

The title seems to attract alot of views but I suppose it's a disappointment to them and they don't reply. #-o Thanks for the comments though. Much appreciated.

Okay the title may have confused you or turned you off.. so in short.. my 7th goal has been completed and without further hesitation here is the picture. I stopped 100k away from this one simply because I wanted to do Arma duo's with a friend of mine to see if I can make some money. If that turns out good, I will get 99 con.. if not... I will probably still try to get 99 con. :oops: Here are some previous goals completed: [hide=Other Completions] [/hide] If you are wondering why I am doing this, just read the blog. It should, hopefully, answer your questions. Thanks in advance for any posts!

[hide=From Kent's Guide]Level 49-78 Gold Charms:Keep making those Barker toads! Terrorbirds are a choice for the poor, but I would recommend highly against it. Green Charms:Ibis are nice, but when you can switch to making Fruit bats. You can also make Bunyips to use for yourself, they are VERY useful. Crimson Charms:Bloated leech until 64, where you will make Stranger plant. Their secondary's are easy to come by and they're fast xp, as well as cost efficient. At 72 Make Phoenix if you have completed In Pyre Need. Granite lobsters at 74. Blue Charms:Spirit jelly from 55-56, Steel minotaurs from 56-57, Spirit Kyatt/Ghaark from 57-58. If you want money, you can keep making Spirit kyatt/ghaark instead of Karamthuhlu overlords. Mithril minotaurs at 66. Obsidian golems at 73, but don't make adamant minotaurs, they're too expensive. I'll remind you all that saving blue charms will allow you to gain much more xp in the long run. Level 78+ Gold Charms:Barker toads are better than Spirit terrorbirds. Green Charms:Make Giant ents until you are lv 88 and you can make Spirit stallions for your own use. However, willow branches can be a pain to get, so fruit bat's are a great choice. Crimson Charms:Make Swamp titans at 85 until lv 92, at which point you should switch to Wolpertinger. Make Iron titans at 95 and Pack yaks at 96. Blue Charms:Titans are GREAT for training. You should use these here, but if you have extreme patience, you can wait for a geyser titan.[/hide] This is pretty much the best route to travel for "Casual" training. This is the route I would suggest to just about anyone.

Kebbits should be more exp/hour than grey chins. Short and simple.

I am pretty sure I have bought over 10k Broad bolts on GE recently.. as well as bronze knives.

I believe you can't find anything from those resources because it is deemed "common sense". Just taking a stab at it.

Personally, when mining Addy I like to use the Dwarven mines. Mine the 3 rocks and world hop. You can rack up a good amount of ores in a short period of time, you just have to be willing to put in the work that world hopping brings with all the logging out and in. Also, in member worlds I believe there is virtually noone mining these ores so you should be able to get a routine of worlds going rather easily.

Personally I do: Pineapples Willows Toadflax I do pineapples/willows because back when I started I was told they were the best gp/exp so I stuck with them. I do toadflax because, even though, I profit more with Snaps and Ranarrs I have a problem with losing out on the price of one of those seeds, where-as with Toadflax I would be losing out on what 700gp. Just my personal preferences from when I started farming way back when. I gave it up though, even though up to level 65 I was gaining a level a day, I couldn't stay motivated. It really is all about preferences and monetary ability. For instance when I continue farming after I use up my willow and pineapple seeds I plan on using the highest level tree seeds I can use just to get the exp faster.

You can catch about 333 monks/hour and 120 sharks/hour (well I did going up to 98 without any summons or fishing pots) At that rate it just so happens that monk turn out to be about 5k better gp/hour... 333 monks * 495 gp = 164,835 gp/hour. 120 sharks * 1,334 gp = 160,080 gp/hour. 288.9 hours of fishing monks for 99. 875.6 hours of fishing sharks for 99. So not only do you save what... 586.7 hours of fishing you also make more money in that 289 hour time frame you were fishing monks and have over 586 more hours to go about making more than the 140m you would have made with sharks.. hell or spend that time on skills. Just about any skill with the exception of slayer, farming or RC'in can be gotten to 99 (from a decent level 60+) in 586 hours. Correct me if I am wrong... Fixed

How is skill grinding a problem in RS?.. How does it affect you? ------- I think all the problems people have stated will come with time. Things like quest line updates... high level content... comes with time. They just want to put in new things and then update the old. Then come out with newer things and update the "old new" things. Rinse, repeat. Hopefully more things like GWD will come out, I would qualify that as high level content, which I agree has been awhile since high leveled players have seen something. I also agree that Merchanting clans and 76k'ing are a problem big though. The fact that the only thing Jagex has really done was require spells higher than bolt and "Warn" us against joining merchanting clans... both have proved so effective so far. :roll:

Good Job. With the three days you have left you should just get 99 thieving... at the rate you play you could easily do it. 8/10.

Void... hands down. In the time you spend getting all the SC items you could have made back the extra cost you paid using Void. If not even come out with more money.

It should speed it up but by how much, I believe, it depends on your luck with the bolts. If you can hit a spec once per 1.5 drags then you definitely have a significant difference in the speed of the task. But I don't think that will happen so I would say it would speed your task up by 10 minutes, 15 at most. It will, however, cost you.. What 3 times more?.. I don't think its worth it but its all your choice. Personally I just either use only broad bolts or use mith (e) to poison then switch to broad to finish after they are poisoned.

Yea my Arma luck isn't to good either. I am yet to get a hilt but I didn't do a lot of trips probably 15 at the most (counting both solo's and groups) I figured if I hit it hard for a week with my duo partner then we can pull at least 2 hilts not to mention a few armor pieces. Btw if I do duo I will CS not LS. I'll take the 40m from a hilt split over 80m lsp's anyday. I like my cash now not potential cash later. But thanks for your input it's much appreciated

Thank you both for your answers. Does anyone else want to take a stab at it or did they hit the nail on the head as far as answering my questions goes?

Hey buddy, I too quit for 50 days. Now my goals are a bit mixed from what the original post says and what my original plans were. I am getting 98.9 ranged now as we speak (643k from 99) Then I was thinking about doing either hunter, magic or agility. If I do go the agility route I doubt I will have my party in January. If I go with hunter then I will be up 33m and give me a total of 55m.. in which case I will be getting 99 con, which was not even in my mind until today. Again the date for the party is very TENTATIVE I tend to burn myself out every few months then come back a couple months later.. rinse and repeat. So it really all depends on how many breaks I take, if I am satisfied with the 98's that I do have or if I want to get one or so more. It is all dependent really. January was just a "if everything goes according to planned" date.

Good joob. I need that luck now... you even got a decent clue reward.. good job. =D>

Here are some of my outfits.. [hide=] [/hide] As you can see I enjoy the look of elegant. As for what looks good with a mining cape, I haven't the slightest clue. I just believe elegant makes for perfect skilling outfits. Trying to jog your mind a bit.

Well firstly.. I know to use Oak larders until 74 then Oak Doors to 99. And I already know about SC cutting the cost of con in half.. I just don't know how to put that into words. Currently oak planks cost 520 gp each. Current con exp: 680,069 Exp Necessary: 12,354,362 868 oak larders to 74. (3.61m) then 19,897 Oak doors to 99. (103.46m) I can do the math, I have.. but I do not know anything about SC.. [*:1rqtlbqc]How many items/hour am I getting? (I believe I remember people saying 3 or 4?) [*:1rqtlbqc]How many hammers would I need? [*:1rqtlbqc]Is SC hard to get use to? [*:1rqtlbqc]In your opinion do you think it is worth it to do SC? Should I just do duo Arma trips for the 103m instead and go without SC? [*:1rqtlbqc]Which if the above ways would be faster? SC or GWD for $$ Money isn't really a problem because I will be doing hunter and a few other things to get my cash pile up.

World hopping is the only way to really go about this. Just mine the 3 in Dwarven mines, hop and repeat. Bank when full, obviously, and the do the same. Just use a rotation of 6 or 7 worlds (depending upon population) and you should do fine.

Sell the broad arrows... get broad bolts and use a rune c-bow + Zammy book. The kills will come faster that way as well.. so why not. MSB's are outdated. If not then you could change the fury for a Zam stole or the Gloves for Zam Vamps or even the monk bottom for Zammy D'hide legs.. Just other suggestions as opposed to the Zammy robes. OR even better yet you can continue on with slayer only using range... I have gotten down to 750k from 99 range (starting at 1.2,) and I have only been ranging for 3-4 days. (since monday)

Sharks should be something like 120 per hour. Monkfishing you can actually get 40k exp/hour if not more with a granite lobster. But without a summon 40k is very achievable you just HAVE to pay attention as the spots change so rapidly. So you are looking at 333 monks per hour. In retrospect the profit per hours looks a little something like: Sharks = 156k gp/hour Monkfish = 160k gp/hour Keep in mind with a Granite lobby the numbers should rise. By how much I am not entirely sure.

They are the equivilant of addy bolts pretty much.. that's about it... but hitting a 30+ with a spec you can use what 2 times isn't really worth it. I would just stick to the broad bolts. Then again I am 98 range and use void when I train so with broad bolts I hit 30+ reguardless. :oops:
