Hegel Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I am going to get full lumberjack soon so I would appreciate if people who have obtained the set share their strategies for how they did so. I have heard differing accounts of which people/route to take as well as which piece is rarer (or if they are all the same). Also, how long does it generally take to obtain the full set? Thanks.

Aslan Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Strongest person from each part on the lowest route, skipping all the events that I could.I got the whole outfit in about 5-6 hours of trekking, top being the last.I don't know about the rare part but the top was the last item that I got.

Danqazmlp Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Use the red people on the blue route, skip all the events you don't want to do. Want to be my friend?

michel555555 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 i use the red people on the easy route. i still havn't gotten mine though -.- i've gotten about 30 boots and hats and 20 legs. My friend though got his lumberjack top on one of his first tries and he said that he only killed the zombies that were wearing the top. i havn't tried this out yet to see if it actually makes a difference. [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hegel Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 I have gotten 5 lumberjack events in about 3 hours taking the strongest person on the blue route. However, all I have gotten is 5 lumberjack hats. Am I just being unlucky or am I doing something wrong? Coincidentally perhaps, the only tomes I am getting are fishing tomes.

Back when it first came out, people were thinking that mattered. But I got my top from a topless zombie. I've never seen Sixth Sense nor Inception nor many other popular movies and I intend to keep it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I just being unlucky or am I doing something wrong? Coincidentally perhaps, the only tomes I am getting are fishing tomes.The different Lumberjack articles are supposed to be equally likely as drops, but the majority of players will ultimately struggle to obtain either the Top or Legs; it's just a quirk of the minigame. :lol: And yeah, I'd mark the fact that you've received the same Tomes up to sheer coincidence. i use the red people on the easy route. i still havn't gotten mine though -.- i've gotten about 30 boots and hats and 20 legs.

At any rate, you're doing everything correctly, Chenjs2, so keep at it. You'll have it before too long, I'm sure. : Interested in helping the Tip.It Crew?

Devious Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Same as other people: easy route with the strongest people. Took me 4 hrs to get whole set. I also did all the events that gave good drops (like snake hides). I did both sides though: Temple Trekking and Burgh de Rott Ramble on the way back.

I can still remember, in my early days of Trekking, having to run back through Mort Myre Swamp after every successful trek, as the Burgh de Rott Ramble didn't exist at the time. I can't imagine having to go back to that now. :lol: But anyway, I'm sure Chenjs2 is participating in both the trek and the ramble--to do otherwise wouldn't be very intelligent. I'm impressed that you managed to complete the set so quickly, though. You must be considerably lucky. :P Interested in helping the Tip.It Crew? Check out our Website Updates & Corrections Board!

Actually, included in the 4 hrs is my detour to do Darkness of Hallowvale because I didn't know I had to do it to access the second minigame #-o So I mention it so no one makes the same noobcake mistake I did :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlzPuddngPlz Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 No idea, accidentally posted this when editing a comment for my siggy. :oops: sorry. Sig by me, in MS paint, but I'm still working on it. Suggestions appreciated This guide is as concise as a gourmet's handbook with the guidelines of "Pick up fork, stab food, insert into your mouth, then chew".

Hegel Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Alright thanks for the help. I am using both routes for the trekking. After a few more hours I ended up with 2 boots and 1 legs. Taking a break for now before I attempt for the top. From what I heard, the top is the rarest, although the official stance is otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
