malo2 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well now that I am already closing in on my 4th 99 stat, I thought its about time I make some sort of a blog, since I've never made one before, and fishing has been the hardest stat yet, out of wcing, cooking, and fletching. Originally fishing was my worst skill by far, getting over 200,000 in rank at lvl 70, It was annoying the heck out of me, especially because I could never do some serious fishing. Once I already had 2 99 skills, I decided to get that fishing up already, fishing and woodcutting are very similar skills, and If I got 99 wcing, I can get 99 fishing too. So I got down to work, the same way I did with wcing, and here I am, at lvl 96. My first task was to get 10k lobsters, which I did quite quickly, that got my cooking up from 90, where it sat for a while. Then I decided to take on something much bigger, something that really showed the challenge of getting to 99, in a few months I had 25k sharks after slaving away at Burgh De Rott.. I cooked it to finish that 99 cooking, and I sold it all for 1k each and got my self full dragon. But then the shark prices began to fall, and I realized that lobsters were more worthwhile in xp and now in money. Thats when I began fishing more lobsters. Since I finished the sharks, I have already gotten about 35k lobsters. In between I sold some of the lobsters to take a break and get 2 smithing lvls. So today, I just got 96 fishing, and I'm already looking forward to 97. May 25th 98 fishing ftw! well 99 here i come, another 1.2m to go :) May 19th: It's nice how I never have to leave the guild ofr selling lobsters, all I do is occasionally shout that I'm selling them, and sometime someone will buy. Already sold about 35-40k total lobs in the guild alone. Also, today I sold my dragon, and combined the money with the profit from fishing lobs, and bought a red mask. The reason I sold the dragon is because the chain is already down to 13m, 3m less than what I originally bought it for, I don't want to loose any more, and with the mask i can get some extra money by doing nothing :) 550K till lvl 98, and then 99 is ahead :D and in other news: soon 1900 posts. May 9th: 97 Fishing, getting closer :o In other news, my skill total rank is getting worse, soon going to be 10k :cry: April 29th: Reached an 8 digit xp =O I'm also thinking to get hunter to 99 next, so I can get a non-multytaskable 99, now theres a challenge :) I also found that once i do get to 99, I will have just enough money (If I sell my dragon and fury too) to get a 3rd age plate, so now I have something else to keep me going :) April 26th: Lastfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
