Hey i'll help! I added you and have started collecting :

[Perakp]

Oh alright, I'll help out again, as long as I am guaranteed to get my money back. *Starts collecting*

 

Hey i'll help! I added you and have started collecting :

 

=D> Great!

 

 

 

Took me this long to figure out that tip.it forums aren't down as the mainsite is. :wall: Not that there'd be much to update: I've only slayed (black demons, nechryaels, abyssal demons and now abyssal demons again). If rune boots were worth 200k per pair as they used to be, I would've made over a million from the nech task: 4 pairs + rune larges + chains.

 

 

 

Soon I'll have to sell my ZGS if I want to enlargen my collection, but that's ok... Then I'll have money to do some skilling. Now my budget is restricted to the ~5M gp sitting in my bank and the ~4M gp that are buying me feathers from GE.

 

 

 

This blog reached its first one thousand views this week. Any guesses how many feathers I'll have at 2k?

[Perakp]

Had a skeletal wyvern (lvl-140) task today :thumbsup:

 

 

I also hit a 57 with the mace :geek: (0-52-57-0 specs). Skeletal wyverns are weak against crush attacks, but d mace is the best one-handed crushing weapon, which shows again how much runescape's combat system fails. Why don't we have a one-handed crushing weapon that isn't slow, and could have atleast a theoretical chance to win a whipper?

 

 

 

A common belief, that I also held this morning, is that skeletal wyverns are hard to kill or a wasted effort in the never-ending search for the Visage. I found out that I don't need to pray to kill them, that sharks are not needed and that the drops are worth it even if I never got the granite legs or the visage.

 

Here is my setup, I could get ~23 kills per trip with it.

 

 

Pray pots are for piety, lunar staff for teleporting to Mudskipper's point and I also had a terrorbird full of monkfish.

 

Made a nice profit from pure ess and wyvern bones, and a hundred crimson charms.

[UnknownRemoval]

That's some bank, and a hell of a task.

 

 

 

 

 

I tried it once, but sold them when I figured I could make 2M profit. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How can you have a bank that full? mine's only has about 17 items rofl.

[Perakp]

A charming failure

 

This happens when you get too excited. You supposedly find out something new and revolutionary, but are quickly pulled back to have your feet steadily on the ground.

 

Five days ago I read about a new mysterious summoning training method. Someone had suggested talon beast charms, as they are the 2nd ingredient for the pouch that gives the most summoning xp when it's made. I rushed to tell that they are a pain to get in large quantities and therefore can't give good xp in the long run.

 

I have had a lot of experience with the temple trekking minigame. I used to play it a lot before I got full lumberjack. I knew how hawt talon beast charms were. The problem with getting them is that the other events waste your time so much, especially the bog. It takes minutes to pass it and evading it takes you to the middle of the Mortmyre swamp.

 

This is where I remembered the slayer ring. I could easily teleport from the bog, run to Salve and get a new Forrester to be escorted. This way I could possibly get talon beast charms much faster than earlier.

 

 

 

I had only enough slayer points to buy one slayer ring. I took the best gear I could think of, used all the trekking tricks I knew, and could get about 30 charms per hour. This was epic, I thought. I did the calculations and was sure that this would get me faster summoning xp than killing waterfiends for charms.

 

The ring didn't last long. I had no slayer points left. I needed to get more talon beast charms and I wanted to get more of them as fast as possible. So I contacted Mazchna and 'farmed' the points, getting every 10th assigment from Duradel. Getting the 300 points only took me two days.

 

Today I tried my self-crafted slayer rings. After an hour it was certain that I had been very lucky earlier. I had trouble getting 15 charms in that time.

 

:wall:

 

Do I really have to kill waterfiends if I want to train summoning?

 

 

 

Atleast I got a few hundred silver bars and pure ess from this little adventure. And now I have this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How can you have a bank that full? mine's only has about 17 items rofl.

 

God bless the search button.

[Danqazmlp]

Hurry up and get online, i've got 100k feathers waiting for you, and another 200k on the way ^.^

 

 

 

Tried the fm minigame yet?

[Perakp]

^.^ indeed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Has running around and stressing over a few campfires ever been this fun?

 

 

I placed logs to all of them yesterday and today I got a connection lost when I had set five of them on fire already... -.-

 

I'm glad I won't have to do it again. Untill 92 firemaking.

 

 

 

Calculated yesterday that I have enough charms for lvl 80 summoning. Add two prayer levels to that and I'd be 134cmb. Tempting.

Even if you weren't lucky, your only getting 600 xp/crimson, or 1.5x. Your getting 30 (When you were lucky) so if you get over 45 crimsons you should do waterfiends. (you get 100+)

[Perakp]

Even if you weren't lucky, your only getting 600 xp/crimson, or 1.5x. Your getting 30 (When you were lucky) so if you get over 45 crimsons you should do waterfiends. (you get 100+)

 

I calculated the time it would get 5M summoning xp with both methods. With old-school summoning training I would've spent a lot more time in making the money for shards and 2nd ingredients, talon beasts are cheap to make after you have the charms.

 

 

 

At 30 talon charms/h, 100 crimson charms/h and at the moneymaking speed of 500k/h and pouch crafting speed of ~1.5k/h, talon beasts were the better option. If I had infinite money I wouldn't be looking for these cheap alternatives. Making talon beasts requires much less money than old-school summoning training.

 

 

 

I came up with a new plan to get charms easily. TSG had a nice KBD soloing guide and it told I could profit, get ~80 crimsons/h AND have a chance of getting the visage.

 

I only need to get full pc robes first. :wall: Got 100 points today, 750 points to go.

 

 

 

Here is a level I got yesterday:

 

 

 

 

Is training with a pyrelord faster than training with a tinderbox? It took a little longer to light a full inv of logs, but it gives 10xp more per log...

Love your blog!

 

 

 

A few things I'd like to point out, wyverns do not have any magic attacks - there's nothing you can do about the breath. I found the best way to do it was to wear full barrows armor and use piety, with the fruit bat familiar - cast fruitfall scrolls to get about 8 hp of healing for every 6 spec points used - better than the unicorn stallion. I can do a whole task with a fruit bat or 2, 2 super sets, and an inventory of prayer potions.

 

 

 

All firemaking familiars are unfortunately worthless, they are much much slower than using a tinderbox. :(

 

 

 

I've also put in my GE offer for feathers. :P

[Perakp]

...page 4? \

 

It's already a page since I showed you those ancient pictures? And two weeks and I still haven't started telling my tale? Maybe it's time to have a change.

 

Most blogs start with the author telling something about themselves. I haven't done that, I've only babled about feathers, without telling anything about me. If I'm ever going to tell about Perakp, and if I expect you to understand all the twists in the plot, I should first show who is the person behind him. So here it comes.

 

 

 

[hide=Think twice if you really want to know]Hello, my name is Pera.

 

I'm 17 years old, I come from Finland, and I've played runescape for four years. That says I was 13 when I started. Before Runescape I had mainly played old adventure games, for example the legendary Monkey Islands, Broken swords and other SCUMM- games. Runescape was my first MMORPG.

 

 

 

I'm on my 3rd year in a highschool. I'm interested in all fields of science and also mathematics. I know English, Swedish and German, but am fluent only in English. I have matriculation examinations in English and Swedish this fall and in Finnish, German, math and physics next spring.

 

 

 

I do orienteering and run often, as I quit playing football few years ago. I have given thought to starting again but there isn't a team for my agegroup. I've taught me the skill of drawing, but I can't find the inspiration to do it too often. I draw simple caricatures, for example I made a nice piece featuring my new headmaster last spring. I can't publish my work as many would find it inappropriate.

 

 

 

I don't listen to music, and don't have any idols (except in Runescape). I don't believe in God and am not a member of any party. In a way I think I'm post-materialist, but I also support a bunch of other ideologies, but can't profess any of them. I'm going to vote when I turn 18.[/hide]

 

 

 

Today I got 200 pc points and played two rounds castle wars. If some of you have wondered what's so fun in castle wars, I hope this picture clears things up a little. These people take castle wars veery seriously.

 

 

It's not a clan but a group of people playing in a small world. We have these every weekend. \

 

 

 

 

Love your blog!

I hope you understand how much that first sentence means to someone writing a blog.

 

 

 

I took my setup from a guide somewhere here on tif. Thanks for your tips, I'll use those if I ever kill them again

 

I'm looking forward to buying feathers from you. :thumbup:

[Perakp]

Pest control is the worst minigame in runescape.

 

 

 

Even gnomeball couldn't bore me that much.

 

 

 

 

Ugh. I hope I never get these crazy goals again. Not going back to pc. ever.

 

 

 

2M feathers tomorrow \

 

One week till English listening comprehension test.

[Perakp]

Two million feathers (2.9.2008)

 

One million -> two million took 13 days.

 

two million -> ten million is going to take 8*13=104 days ~ 3 months and two weeks

 

 

 

But this wouldn't be possible without the continous support of Danqazmlp (#1) and Eagle tas (#2), and all the other people who have done smaller sales. They make this goal take 30 days less than what it'd take if I was on my own, if their tempo stays the same. Thank you!

 

 

 

You can halp!

 

Unlike most goals, this one can only be completed faster when there are more people contributing. Don't be afraid to pm me if you have feathers, I'll get to you as soon as I've knocked out the next KBD.

 

 

 

Yesterday I did my first ever KBD trip (That's right, I had never killed His Highness before). It wasn't hard at all at my high levels: 99 ranged rips through his 0 range defence and ancient teles get me right next to his lair. The charm droprate isn't as impressive as I had thought, but the addy and rune drops are very generous. I'll post a picture if I ever get the heads or the visage. Preferably the latter.

 

 

 

Are the new distractions any good? I'm most interested in the mining minigame, because mining is the biggest pain in the buttocks skill in rs. ;)

[Danqazmlp]

I keep misssing you when your online, i've got 370k feathers waiting for you, and more coming in the g.e. I'll single handedly get you to 3m \

 

 

 

how many kills are you managing at KBd per trip?

[Perakp]

how many kills are you managing at KBd per trip?

 

 

 

I come from school at ~1pm gmt and am done with homework at 3pm gmt, and the best I've done this week is seeing the "Danqazmlp has logged out". :wall:

 

 

 

When I'm alone I can do 4-5 kbd kills per trip when I use sharks and monkfish 50-50, I could get 6-7 if I wasn't poor and could use sharks. Banking is very fast though so I could bank between each kill if I wanted to and still kill them as fast.

 

When I'm killing them with the odd fellow kbd hunter, I can get upto 15 kills in a trip, but will only get half of the drops if I'm lucky. The melee'ers do atleast as much damage as I do in my void robes, but they must use much more food. I'm not 100% sure though, I should test to see..

 

But KBD hunting comes with a drawback. I need to be on ancients to do it effectively (till 79 summoning), so I'm unable to do farming rounds. This hurts me a lot, because I'm spending tons on feathers daily and farming would get me easy money.

 

 

 

Mined my first asteroid today, thanks to the ppls on EMR's. It's not worth the trouble, but it IS fun.

[Ilufyou]

I wish i could donate u some feathers but you ain't comming to a f2p world =(..

 

 

 

anyhow good luck with everyting. especialy the feathers. would be great if u get 10 mill!! to nice..

 

 

 

Ilufyou..

September the 6th, Skilling day

 

I don't know where it came from, but today I got the marvellous inspiration to train skills. Here are some pictures to explain what I spent my time on today:

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... o/wc82.jpg

 

Did 20k xp at Draynor willows but moved here for the last 30k. Great spot. Din't care to buy a d axe for 50k xp..

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... o/star.jpg

 

Remember the daily shooting star just when it dropped. It was size 7 first. With the mining boost and the varrock plate I could mine three addy ores from a single rock.

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... s/fm86.jpg

 

85-86 fm didn't take long. Six levels till adze.

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... g/pr81.jpg

 

Two loads of bones for this level :mrgreen:

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... /sumxp.jpg

 

Yersterday's penguins \

 

http://www.nasirtajik.com/rs-share/file ... summ72.jpg

 

One level till 2100 total, two summ/pray levels till next cb level.

 

 

 

AND

 

100k till 99 magic (!!!)

 

 

 

Three million feathers tomorrow ->

[Perakp]

Three million feathers(7.9.2008)

 

 

 

 

One million -> two million took 13 days.

 

Two million -> three million took 5 days

 

8-)

 

 

 

56k till 99 magic.. Got 2k diamond bolts ready to be enchanted and then i'll need to come up with something else. It feels like I've forgotten how to train magic effectively, no idea how I got to 98..

 

English listening comprehension went fine, Swedish listenings tomorrow: gotta go practice. Maybe I'll get to a shooting star later today.

 

 

 

 

 

Clan wars update coming tomorrow? :pray: castle wars clan war arena = need

[Eagle_Tas]

Killing 2k aviansie-birdies in gwd at this moment. Killed 727 so far and earned a few millions. Guess I'll put an even bigger order of feathers this time!

 

 

 

Once I'm done I'll pawn the 100k+ feathers I have at the moment as well. You can count on my continued support! :)

[Perakp]

My Magic level is 99.

 

 

Waved the last 50k in castle wars :thumbup:

 

 

 

Electromagnetism irl -> :geek:

[Perakp]

Some girl got a seizure in school yesterday :( ruined my day. And I had school this saturday too, a test on electromagnetism which went ok.. I hope.

 

 

 

In runescape I've only played castle wars and did the compulsory trips to Bork and Zaff. I tried new clan wars yesterday but as I'm not the pker type I didn't fancy it. I can see that a load of castle wars pkers have gone to the new clan wars though, which is only a good thing.

 

Also did a short trip to Bandos with Eagle Tas & co, but we didn't get anything worth mentioning. Today I did a trip to mith dragons with the same results. Mith dragons drop 4 charms at a time just like the kbd, but most of them are green instead of crimson.

 

 

 

Trigonometry and advanced algebra next week ->

[Perakp]

 

 

 

8-)

 

Yesterday I witnessed a weird bug, or then a lvl 3 clue scroll is indeed a rare drop from the Bork. It wasn't even dropped in the drop pile, but under my character #-o No idea where it came from but I got zammy legs from it :thumbup:

 

 

 

Today I did summer's end, which imo shouldn't have been a sequel but an integral part of the original quest. Going to kill the Beast next.

 

 

 

edit. w98 for boss killing, one drop i saw was 125 addy ores. Bring ruby bolts or a gs. there are no graves so other equipment is too risky to bring. Familiars are eaten. 3-iteming ftw.

[Perakp]

The beast is very nice as high summoning level isn't required. Haven't gotten any drops in my ~30 kills so far. Bought a zammy spear, a cannon and 1k ruby bolts for it.

 

No luck with mith dragons either.

 

 

 

140k till 90 farming =P~
