Well, 10 months ago I wrote a blog declaring my goal to achieve perfection in every combat and combat-related skill. Since then I've knocked them down one (and 2 and 3 :P) at a time. Today I maxed the last one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes everyone and their mothers knows the screenshot did not occur in time.

 

 

 

[hide=Me rambling a lot about how I trained]To recap the journey, my plan was to use slayer to max melees, and ranged and make money at the God Wars Dungeon to pay for 99 prayer as well as 99 magic at rock lobsters, which combined with slayer would yield 99 summoning. It was assumed 99 hitpoints would occur somewhere along the way, which it did. :P Everything went largely according to plan. I have had to this day 1 armadyl and 5 saradomin hilts (all 3 or 4 man) as well as 30-some saradomin swords (one solo, the reward for 400-ish solo kills :|). I also made some of the required money from runecrafting, dagannoth kings, and pleasingly While Guthix Sleeps. Although I've never had a pair of claws, I did the quest the day it came out and sold my reward shard for 10.8M. That evening I got another shard, also sold for 10.8M. The next day I got another, selling it for 11.9M. I stayed at tormented demons for around 400 kills but got no further drops and abandoned the pursuit when Jagex lowered the drop rates and made them harder lol. Slayer worked quite well for maxing the melees as expected, and ranged as well. Of my current 16M ranged experience (of which I had about 3M when I began my goal, although a lot of that was from slayer as well), I would estimate 1-2M is from monster hunting, 700k is from ape atoll chinning (I wanted 99 ranged and summoning on the same day but needed to be in the top 1k summoning as well hehe), and 2M from chinning my nechyrael tasks (only before 99 ranged). The rest is from cannoning and the steel titan. I did not cannon excessively (in my opinion :P) using it for dagannoth, kalphites, warped terrorbirds, scabarites, aberrant spectres, goraks, bloodveld, and suqahs. I used it on dark beasts until the mid 90s when I decided it was a waste (switching to piety instead), and fire giants until 99 summoning when I switched to the chaos tunnels with a steel titan. Both proved almost as fast and much cheaper. I used the titan on every multicombat task except for scabarites, where I used a unicorn stallion. My block-list was hellhounds and greater demons (crowds), irons dragons and steel dragons (crowds and bad experience). Possibly as a result of this I am yet to get a draconic visage lol. I don't regret my choice however, as the only other tasks that I would consider blocking are warped terrorbirds (which are very good experience if you cannon and are good with chimes), black dragons (which can be easily killed in baby black dragon form in the chaos tunnels, along with the green dragons your titan will randomly kill and perhaps yield a green dragon egg :)), and skeletal wyverns (which can easily be done in 1 trip with a unicorn stallion and summoning potions, aren't that bad experience if you use piety, and drop a TON of crimson charms, not to mention the visage if you are lucky). Speaking of piety, I used it sometimes and only sometimes. :P I used superhuman strength on every task I didn't though - I would highly recommend it as it is very cheap but makes a very large difference. I used piety on dark beasts and wyverns for the attack/strength boost, and scabarites for the defence boost. I repotted my stats every 10 minutes. I used the dragon dagger(p++) or saradomin godsword specials for each task, using the sgs only if I took enough damage to warrant healing obviously. It isn't life-changing but it's cool to have a godsword. :P

 

 

 

Aaaaaaand that's how I slayed. If you want to learn more, I strongly recommend reading Zarfot's Mega Slayer Guide on the RSOF. Quick find code: 98-99-703-58532304. His other guides are good too. :P[/hide]

 

 

 

Smoking Kills came out when I was about 85 slayer, and I did it straight away. I have never burthorped or even skipped a task since then - only blocked the aforementioned 4. Here is my current streak:

 

 

 

 

 

 

... and slayer point count... (noting that I would have 4000 more if I hadn't spent them to get money to make the pouches for 99 summoning; in other words NEVER skip tasks unless you want to waste 157k/skipped task)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a bank picture too because they're interesting. To speak briefly about summoning, 99 magic at rock lobsters yielded charms to take me to about 8M summoning xp. The other 6M xp I have was slayed, in addition to the charms I have currently banked, which will take me to over 16M when I spend them. :)

 

 

 

Although slayer certainly is good cash, I don't think I came quite close to the 400M other people have claimed lol. I've had 10 whips and 10 bows, as well as 50-60 dragon boots (estimated, including boots from sara kc). Slayer points earned me around 22M but people didn't have those in the past anyways. Alching all my stuff will yield well under 10M, so how people made such riches (even when drops were more valuable, but not by a factor of 5) eludes me.

All the alchables were from 91-ish to 99 slayer. MTK has been in a month or 2 I think lol.

 

 

 

Since this is the culmination of my combat journey (although I do plan on rank chasing a bit :P) I'll post the other 99s I have achieved along this goal as well.

Also, today I just noticed that I was at 199.1M total xp so I busted out 2k crimsons and did some summoning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The end.
