Steel/iron plates with SC hammer. Gold is still better though, you should stick with it. 61-65 is not THAT hard or slow.

I can't say I really like the taste of it (it has a really strong aftertaste), I'll maybe eat one when my family buys them (1 piece, not 1 fruit), but it's not something I'll go out of my way to buy or eat often.

61 Herbs: 10-17 Tarromin, 8-20 Harralander, 1-6 Ranarr, 5-13 Irit, 7-12 Avantoe, 1-9 Kwuarm, 2-5 Cadantine, 1-5 Lantadyme, 1-6 Dwarf weed or a similar mix. From the Runescape wiki. You'll also receive a paltry amount of seeds, ranging from guam to snapdragon (includes toadflax, iirc).

Is the wilderness back already, or are you playing full time on PvP worlds (which is hilarious)?

There's something about Black Ops that just makes me feel like it's really uninteresting. It's not that I detest the game, but I don't get the urge to play it as much as I did playing MW2 (and to a lesser extent, CoD4).

Congratulations, strength was (and still is my only) my first 99.

If you already have it, Korasi's sword is useful as well for strength training, although it's not worth breaking your back over.

Been in the new year for 12 hours now. Any other countries still not 2011?

Are you on a console, by any chance? I'm almost done (procrastinating due to game freezes), but mine is messed up too.

I didn't buy a lot of games this year (sort of, I hope it's fine to put games I bought this year, and not released this year) Warhammer: 40k (and its expansions) - PC - It's a good break from the usual "harvest this and harvest that" crap. Have to give them credit for making 6 distinct races. Easy but tedious campaign though (they give stupendously long objectives). Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - PC - Was playing this for the better part of the year. It's not that great, but if you can see past its flaws, it's addicting. Starcraft 2 - PC - It's fun, but not worth $100 (in local currency, it's about 70 or so USD if I'm not wrong?). Tekken 6 - PSP (get the PS3/360 version, they offer more) - Can't wait for TTT2. The Orange Box (Half-life 2 + episodes, Portal, Team Fortress 2) - PC I guess I should do 1 for each game. Half Life 2 (with ep1 and 2) - I've never even heard of the HL games before I bought this, but it has a decent story, at the expense of a few boring but tolerable levels, thanks to findable secret stashes and stuff. Portal - Short and sweet. Team Fortress 2 - To be honest, I haven't even played this game a whole lot, but it's real fun, the comical relief it provides (stupid things they do) is refreshing. Left 4 Dead 2 - PC - Got this from being wrongly banned from MW2. It's zombie killing. Not that noteworthy. Call of Duty: Black Ops - PC - Singleplayer is great (encompassing singleplayer zombies, though I'm not sure why you'd want to do that). Multiplayer is ass, but I haven't seen people complain a whole lot on consoles, so I assume they don't have that big of a problem. Lack of local dedicated servers, freezing graphics (happens in singleplayer too, maybe my card?), sudden lag. I can't recall the number of times I got frustrated when a guy killed me while I was pumping bullets into his face when in the killcam it didn't show up as anything. Halo 2 Vista - PC Borrowed from a friend, and it doesn't need a disc so... I kinda bought it? Games for Windows ruined it though. Would like more Halo games on the PC, but that probably won't happen unless Microsoft retires the 360.

100% support. We pay, we dance. Retro.

14:22 I suddenly heard a thunderous voice in my head: 'JOIN THE "ELITES" GUILD YOU MONKEY!#!@#%$@#t$wswfgsd$@#.' That was stunning. 14:22 I feel that being a member of the 'ELITES' guild is a better choice. Finally. Time for the encouraging to resume, and then a couple of months to become a grand-master again.

You can try salamanders, it is effective but a little slow, imo. My maging setup: Any mage headgear - Ahrim's hood is the best. Arcane stream/Fury - I use fury, but arcane stream is better. Ahrim's top/bottom - use mystic if you have no extra money, but I won't recommend it Zamorak book Staff of Light Any boots is fine really, but use the best mage one if you're really concerned about accuracy. God cape/Trimmed skill cape/SW cape Ring doesn't matter, but seer's (i) and Lumbridge ring are decent. Inventory: Super set (I don't have extremes), alternatively remove the defence potion for an extra shark. A few prayer potions, amount varies, suit to your own needs. Whip Runes for ice spells Runes for blood spells Spade Sharks House tab (hope I'm not forgetting anything) You have 99 attack, so you probably won't need ranged equipment to deal with ahrim, but if you do, remove sharks for a d'hide body (or karil's), add an accumulator and your ranged weapons (preferably a 1 handed). Ice spell the melee brothers, when they unfreeze, hide behind the crypt and wait a while before you ice them again. You can also use salamanders and walk diagonal to them for easy damage. Use blood spells on the melee brothers if your health is already low before you hit the dungeons. Whip karil and ahrim (or range ahrim). I do Karil > Ahrim > Dharok > Verac > Torag > Guthan. You'll want to pray on Karil and Ahrim, and maybe Dharok, if he comes too close. The runes from the chest will usually cover the cost of the spells, if not more. I can do about 10 or so chests per run with this setup.

And this is whose fault...?

If you don't have the patience to get a rapier (or super antifires), do The Void Stares Back and use Korasi's sword.

I've never actually won anything in a lucky draw (this is a draw right?), so I'll just pretend that Jagex is pulling my leg.

I remember you, although it is a little fuzzy, but your name definitely rings a bell. Welcome back :smile:

Goddamnit. I leave on vacation for a week, and when I get back, my righteous hero becomes gentle, and he joined another guild? This sucks ass. What to do now?

He's the other side of the argument right? In which case he has bias towards the game, so he'll probably be comparing RS to Tiba (gameplay aspects-wise), and perhaps mostly the negative aspects (no free trade, etc).

Is Fallout: NV any good? I saw some of the marketing for it (the brochures) and damn, it looks really interesting, especially the open world idea. I've heard it's plagued with dumb bugs though.

This is a blog? :thumbup:

Is it weird that it's almost a month since Woody died any my hero hasn't bothered to replace him? Am I doomed to wander pet-less? :cry: Also, level 25, another skirmish win, although it used up the last of my free charges.

You could build a costume room and free up some space, unless you enjoy wearing a bird mask for whatever reason. 9/10

I don't actually bother with the achievements, I'd just like the game to tell me if I have completed a mission on Veteran, like in MW2. Since it doesn't (for whatever reason), I'm stuck on relying on the achievement thing (which honestly sucks, why 3 or 2 together?) as my only source of information. It feels awkward that I have maybe completed the game on Hardened or whatever, which is not likely, but eh.

Tried completing the game on Veteran. Putting it on hiatus because the respective achievements for completing certain missions on Veteran aren't unlocking (like the ones where you complete 3 missions on Veteran). I think when I complete it (which is insanely hard), nothing is going to happen and I'm going to have to try again.
