Dodongo's Blog - 81 Mining!

Featured Replies

Introduction

 

[hide=Real Life]Hello users of Blogscape and Tip.it forums, welcome to my blog. My name is Ed, Dodongo 200 on Runescape. Here is a little background information - skip down for the low down on my account. I was born in and currently live in South Wales, UK. I'm 15 years of age and I'm currently around halfway through my GCSE's. I get pretty good grades at school, and I hope to pursue a career in Maths or Science (Chemistry or Physics, Biology ftl). We'll see how that goes. :D In my free time I like to play RuneScape, Xbox, read and sometimes watch T.V. I'd also like lift weights, but I'm still scrawny as anything.[/hide]

 

[hide=RuneScape]Here is a little background for you. I started playing Runescape in 2005, around November. I played for like 2 months with little to no commitment. I achieved 50 Melee's, 60 Mining and 70 Fletching (WOW!!!!). Back then, that was some hard stuff for me. Then, I quit for 2 and a half years, every now and then getting the odd level and declaring it boring again. Then, on summer holiday of 2008, I came back with a vengeance. I renewed my old goal of 70 Ranged and I fought to get it in F2P, at minotaurs. When I got that, I got 70 Fishing. These two goals were my first experience with no-lifing. I played 5 hours for a day on the Ranged one, and again 5 hours on the 70 Fishing goal. For me that was pretty intense. Then I got P2P, and it was great.

 

And then, I decided to do the impossible. I set myself of getting 10m in two weeks, for a dragon chainbody. Into the fishing guild I went, fished lobsters to 76 at around 200 lobsters an hour. Then, I fished sharks for 100k gp an hour. I thought that was fast. I played 7 hours a day for two weeks and 10 hours a day on the last. Pretty damn harsh. After I got the Dragon Chain I sold it straight away. I got 70 melee's at yaks, and then 80 melee's through slayer.

 

OK, then the fun really started. I decided to pursue a goal I got from someone else, who's blog I watched and admired - 70+ all. Thanks to the Blogworld/Evilscape/Fishscape chat, I made this, albeit after a lot of being bored and spending. It was amazing for me, and I got it the 3rd of August, just a week or two after I started playing Runescape again the year before. Then, I went for a little goal of cleaning up my stats - that is, getting them to the nearest 5 or 0. That took untill the end of October. And the rest, is history.[/hide]

 

The Goal

 

After getting such a high total level (1800+) with no skill above 86, I have decided to get a 99. Or rather, many 99's. Here is the plan. 99 Mining, Agility, Runecrafting, Construction and Farming. The last two will be with money made from Runecrafting, as I intend to do it the profitable way. Below, I have outlined how I intend to achieve these somewhat large goals.

 

Mining

 

I will do whatever I feel like, whether that be Granite, banking iron, mithril, adamant, star mining, or even those fancy new concentrated ores. Not much to say here really.

 

Agility

 

75 - 80 = Ape Atoll

80 - 85 = Dorgesh Kaan

85 - 90 = Extended Gnome Course

90 - 99 = Extended Barbarian Course

 

 

Runecrafting

 

75 - 77 = Death Runes via Abyss

77 - 82 = Blood Runes via Abyss

82 - 91 = Astrals, however you do them fast (lol).

91 - 99 = Double Natures baby! Man, this will take a while. But I will be horrendously rich by the end of it! :)

 

 

Farming

 

I have yet to consult my local farming expert D Jay99 on the matter.

 

Construction

 

No idea!

Oh dear. THIS, is going to take a loooong time.

 

 

 

To be honest, I will be incredibly surprise at myself if I have it done by next weekend. Also, change of plan - I'm going to alternate every level between ZMI and Graahk when I get to 60. Hopefully it will be a bit faster. I honestly don't care if I have to be at Aviansies forever, I cannot stand Runecrafting.

Yup, started using ZMI now and I don't think I'll be going back to Graahks. They're just too slow for me. :)

Come on you can make it only 8 more levels believe in your self its hard and it being runecrafting makes it worse but you can do it!

Very Nice and organized. Really gives me an idea of what to go after. :)

14k to 68, will get later tonight. Messed up on the weekend, just did not want to play and I wasn't going to force myself to, because doing that usually ends up in me quitting. So yeah, Friday or something.
