Cannon Noob Day from a level 116.


Recommended Posts

 

Wow, I hope this is made up, else.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Market prices is 600k, would have saved you lots of trouble, and you could have just bought a full set from the dwarf for 750k. And, easier to look up how to make CBs on tip.it than go all the way back and buy a manual...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

dwarf prices : 750k

 

 

 

market prices: 600k

 

 

 

total loss : 150k

"Congratulations, you are doing well."

 

 

 

"You are now assigned to kill 164 Kalphites".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat, thaaaaaaanks!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Blasted slayer. Always sends me down to that dump. Its a conspiracy. The heck with it... I"m getting a cannon...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay, so yes, I'm level 116, and I have never had a cannon. And honestly, the Barrows has given me just a weeeee bit of extra spending money, so its time. And I can't handle another Kalphite or Dagonoth cannon-less assignment before Halo 3 comes out. Uh uh... Noooo way. I'd rather pick flax. *blinks* No..Thats a lie.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, off I go... Off to the dwarf cannon quest area...

 

 

 

Uh... Nice job noob. You don't buy a cannon here.

 

 

 

Oh yeah, its at the mine entrance.

 

 

 

I hate walking, so compound noob feeling by 3% energy.

 

 

 

Okay, heres the cannon. Now what?

 

 

 

Talk to 5 level-10 dwarfs walking around.

 

 

 

They say Hi. All five times.

 

 

 

Noob feeling squared.

 

 

 

Finally find the guy in the building.

 

 

 

Trade Highway Robbery guy

 

 

 

200k for each piece.

 

 

 

Non noob side of me screams ...You can buy it at market!

 

 

 

Headache from selling Torag legs earlier in market screams..Just buy it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Click... Buy 1 Cannon Base.

 

 

 

Click .. Buy 5 Cannon Barrels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Exceptionally censored language inserted here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Panic and sell four back to shop.

 

 

 

Kick self in chair for being smart enough to realize how stupid that was.

 

 

 

Carefully buy the other two pieces.

 

 

 

Buy cannonball mold... 11 of course. (Long story)

 

 

 

Don't bother buying instruction manual.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tele to watchtower to use Yanille anvil. (Yeah, ain't that funny?)

 

 

 

Get hammer, cannonball mould, and steel bars.

 

 

 

Stand at anvil in yanille looking really stupid.

 

 

 

Clicking on things that say "Nothing happens" 100 different ways.

 

 

 

Still standing there.

 

 

 

Noob feeling cubed.

 

 

 

Resists asking any friend or stranger how to make cannonballs.

 

 

 

Teles back to Fally and buys instruction manual. (Go ahead, flame now)

 

 

 

Reads book.

 

 

 

Noob feeling surreal now.

 

 

 

Ecto Vial.

 

 

 

OFF TOPIC: COULD MAKING CANNONBALLS BE ANY SLOWER?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, I hope not, because if I have any more time between cannonball loads to think about how a cannon cost me 1.4 mil, and took me an hour to buy and operate, that noob sensation might never completely heal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE END.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please bump if you enjoyed the story. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PS *edit from sympathy responses* No need to sympathize, however. 1.4 mil is not a big loss to me. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO FEEL BAD FOR ME AFTER READING THIS, because believe me, thats ironic. lol. Just enjoy the humor, and think that it was lucky for it to happen to a rich guy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

your lvl 116, you have money.. simply buy cannon form player on forum, then as you did that buy cannon balls from players and wellah your off to kill em within 15minutes :lol:

Well while iwas reading it my dad was reading over my shoulder (don't really like people doing that) but when he almost fell over laughing i knew what was coming up. Brilliant story, and a nice way of writing it too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How would you carry a cannon anyway, it would be the equivalent of trying to carry a tank in modern times, boy runescape is weird.

I'm not drunk! You wouldn't dare call me drunk if i was sober!

That's not a noob thing, it's a guy thing. :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ERm.. since you so noobishly:lol: bought it piece by piece instead of talking to the guy, I'm pretty sure it does not have a warranty. Dont let it decay, or you can if you want to find out for sure. I was 110 when I got my cannon. :oops:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All cannons have a warranty :D (This may have already been said, but I dont have time right now to read through 6 pages :( )

haha very funny story, especially the way you wrote it. :lol:

Pier pressure?

I can just see you being threatened by a wharf or jetty because you're a teleporter. Yes, I can see a large wooden wharf uprooting itself from the shore, walking over to you and slapping you in the back of the head for teleporting.

:lol:

haha that must be one of the stupidest things ever :P

 

 

 

did u even know u can buy the whole cannon at once for 750k from dude? even without "the market" lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trust me, on that day, I would have ended up buying five of the cannons from "dude" anyway. lol. It was just fate for me on that day to be ultra noobish. 8) Turned out to be a great story. It still cracks me up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I did know about "dude" but I didn't know where "dude" was. I still have never visited "dude" (the dwarf that starts the cannon quest, I'm assuming)

A circus in Runescape?? Oh my.

I'm back, add me if you deleted me. :)

lol, i have always enjoyed every single one of your posts made. each time you seem to add something unique to each post, which really makes each one a new and interesting story, even tho they have the same basic idea:being a 116 who seems to not be the best at clicking in exact spots :wink: . i look forward in the future to reading another one of your great, well written posts and until next time, best of luck making cannonballs :wink: , and thx for inspiring me to go to the barrows, even tho i have recently stopped, due to a horribly unlucky streak:300 trips, 1 item :cry: , 75 more trips, nothing and stopped. killed brothers except for karil too :cry:

I have to say sir that I surf the forums on a daily basis, between checking on my thread and making replies there, to just checking for a good read or two. Then I stumbled across this thread....an outstanding read. Almost spilled my coffee...hehe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still feel like the uber noob for accidently hi alching my first precious whip and trading what cost at the time 7mil for 60k. But It is nice to know that I am not alone :P

I also did something brilliant the other day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was doing some iron dragons classic style: Monks robe, fire potions, fire shield, prayer on, loaded with prayer pots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then I saw someone mage the iron dragons.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I thought, I can do that too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I was at the bank I also decided to take my magic shortbow. That would be my downfall.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I first tried maging with my firebreath shield on and fire potion. Workds brilliantly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then I think; why not try ranging. I am still on fire breath potion after all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My god, my arrows really hit that iron dragon. WHOOOAAH..cool!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But then I get hit by the Dragon's breath..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What is going on here?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I take more fire breath potion to make sure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The dragon keeps hitting me...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I decide to teleport out...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I try to press the ardougne teleport button. Hmm..I don't seem to be able to click on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am back in lumbridge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just lost glory ammy, ROW, 800 Chaos, 600 Deaths, 5k fire, magic bow, arrows, some other [cabbage] and some loot from the iron dragons I killed so far with maging.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I never seem to be able to click on a teleport when it really matters.

But I bet im the only one who has done "Buy 5 Mage Robe Tops".
i have done that even on purpose....but buying cannon parts for 200k ea that can be easily bought 150k ea from ppl of as a full set for 750k.....is totally noobish!..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Go ahead, you can finish that sentence... let me finish it for you in red font above
