Crazykid1321 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 On June 30th, I started my goal towards 99 Woodcutting by getting my Woodcutting level to 85. Ever since I got my first Skillcape (Cooking), I was teased by players, even those who did not have a Cape of Achievement of their own. Why? It was the easiest Skill Cape to acquire, and it didn't take much effort, just enough cash. (10000k cash, exactly) So I sat down one day and thought - what Skill should I aim for to max out in level that takes time, effort and isn't looked down upon? I then tried out many different skills - Runecrafting, Slayer, Summoning, and etc. but I gave up, not because it was took difficult, it was because I didn't enjoyed those skills, then I thought - Woodcutting, my favorite skill. Then I thought to myself, "look at all the people who have that skill maxed out (in level) already." It became evident to me how much this skill was sought after a visit to the Willow Trees at the entrance of the Barbarian Assault mini game. I wanted to do something that was not a mainstream method, I did not want the quickest experience, I wanted a buck for my bang, something to make all my hard work worth it, not just a nice looking cape and hundreds of thousands of unsellable logs. Then I made a commitment to get 99 Woodcutting from Yews and Yews only - the manly way. On July 25th - 12:30 PST, I completed my goal of 99 Woodcutting with only the cutting of Yew Trees.

sk8_tolivv Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yews arn't much slower, I think there are overall 10x better than willows. And I would know this because before I got banned I had 19m Wc exp from yews ;) 9/10 But then make that a 10/10 because its the best skill \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xpx Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'm guessing saying that cutting yews is a "manly" way of doing it is another way of saying that you wasted your time? If you really wanted to stand out and do it efficiently, you should have cut teak, or even mahogany. Or if you wanted to be really stup... sorry, manly, cut magics! 99 woodcut is a nice achievement, and certainly not an easy one, but somehow very common. First to 99 Farming on 27.

Or if you wanted to be really stup... sorry, manly, cut magics! 99 woodcut is a nice achievement, and certainly not an easy one, but somehow very common. Wasting my time? Cutting teaks and willows are a waste of time. Why cut a mere 2 weeks of my time to get nothing out of my hard work, but a silly cape. I went for 99 Woodcutting for not just the sake of another Cape, but because I love the skill, tell me of another way to get my cut from 99 Woodcutting "efficiently" - (the way in you use the word, using mainstream methods in the sole reason of getting the fastest possible experience for a piece of clothing.) But yes, even though how much effort the skill takes, it maxed out is pretty common now, I guess it is the age and easy access to the skill combined with years of dealing with autoers. What's with the chocolate cakes? :? +1 Every level, I gave away one cake to a needy newbie who is suffering from hunger, and basically everyone near me.You made this thread so perfect, LOL. :lol: 99 WC is still a great achievement, though. All that running and cutting! Very nice. =D> Thanks, not much running though, a bank was near where I was cutting. :D 0/10 the last log you cut was not a yew. Jk that's amazing, 10/10 :) That was the GES Oak. :D "Yews are manly and mages are just for those who are mental." #-o :roll: I did it all on Mages lmao :( Did make 50m though, took 6 months :/ Grats on 99 WC, was my first 99 and it was BLOODY awesome to get :] 10/10 definately, 11 if you did Mages like me :P That must of hurt, you are clearly insane. ;D It took me 26 days and I made 25m. O.O At least I hope you enjoyed it. You're hawt <3: No u. <3 Congrats Crazy! :thumbsup: I see you got that woodcut cape. But 0/10. You called Summoning boring. Narb. :lol: 10/10, grats!

SirHartlar Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 There is nothing "manly" about cutting Yews instead of Willows. That is like saying training Thieving by looting the blood chest is more manly than using PP. 99 Wc is a decent achievement in itself without having to sugar-coat it. Good luck with your next venture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarthySun Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Very nice work! Listen, I'm aiming for 99 Woodcutting myself at the moment. So far I'm level 68, and getting Membership within the next two weeks. How long do you think it would take me to get from 68 to 99 with Yew versus Willows/Teaks? Thanks!
