nechryael Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'm on a budget on 50m-70m (probs 70m tops i have 55m at the moment). What 99's can i get with this, and how (Methods, ect..) Please don't suggest thieving, fm, cooking, and fletching. Obviously i cant get skills such as fishing, mining, and wcing as they are unbuyable.. Im thinking more about RC, Smithing, Crafting, Herblore, Construction, and Farming..the rarer types of capes and how i can get them =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterbob7 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I would say smithing, crafting, or con but the problem is over June-July all the prices went up so I dont know the costs. I heard crafting with Dhides is like 50 mil and smithing around 50 but most bars went up =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nechryael Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Crafting is 20-30m, tanning your own hides and using sc needles but i'd really rather get something other then crafting :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerdboyxxx Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Honestly, just do the cape you most prefer. I'd say con is out of your price range atm (it will require at least 100M+ to train effectively), and Herblore costs a solid 120M to 99. So I'd suggest Runecrafting, crafting, or smithing as a 99, in that order of preference. You'll make a solid 300M getting 99 Runecrafting, which you can use to train con, crafting, smithing, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aspeeder Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'd say smithing, it's fairly rare and respected despite being around the same costs as crafting and just as buyable :roll: . But really should should ask this question to yourself and not others, ultimetly getting a 99 should be a personal goal. http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22 99 Necromancy since 11/22/25 Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 33 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 10 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangeor Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Don't get it for the cape, you'll just look like a tool. Out of the skills you mentioned pick the one you enjoy training the most (or find the least boring) and go for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nechryael Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 I enjoy runecrafting, smithing, and i like almost all the capes i listed there.. craft i cbf to get though. How should i go about 99 smithing and how much would it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilfish1 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 really, alot of money won't make RCing THAT much easier. you can hire runners, which can be very fickle, or you can start ZMI a little sooner, but RCing really is a money making skill. Smithing is good, buyable, and can be done. Crafting is the same, i would prefer to go to smithing because you can offer assistance for smithing Dfire shields and spirit shields to the vast majority of runescape. And it would be nice to know what levels you are starting with before we can really tell you how much it will cost for each skill. I think I'll do Baby Blacks :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseball11 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Id say smithing as it has always been one of my goals to 99, although Mining stole my heart :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nechryael Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 oh soz about not showing my stats.. my sig got deleted it was apparently to big. I have a pair of smithing brawlers in my bank if that helps =S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gin_and_Tonic Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I'd personally go for Ranging... I know you said a skill, but 99 Range with chins is easy as cake and you'd get loads of hitpoints xp too. As for skill, i'd pick crafting as its nice and easy.

nechryael Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 I don't want crafting at all, i said it before ;) I fail at chinning though since they nerfed ape atoll.. I'd still like to know how much 99 smithing will cost and the method Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Is_Great Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Construction, but you have to use SC hammers to get it in your price range, otherwise, maybe farming? Though i dont know how much that's gonna cost, doing magics/palms or yews/papayas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 If you did 4 herb runs, 2 tree runs, 2 bush runs, and 1 fruit tree run per day, and planted maples/palms as your trees as well as snaps, marigolds, and poison ivies, AND planted calquats, you would get 99 farming in ~80-90, maybe 100 days, depending on your currently level. You'd spend 100m or less, and then you'd have to consider you can make a lot more money than that within those 80-100 days. (4 herb runs means you'd be on for 5-6 hours, you can easily make 1 mil within that time.) Farming = epic skill. Of course it'll get boring, but it's "cheap" (relative to its speed and time:cost ratio), fast (relative to the actual time you need to spend), and it can actually be pretty fun (or at least showing off your high farming level will be). ~It's Super Effective!

The Dark Lord Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I'd get Construction. It'll cost 30-50M, and it isn't that bad to get. If you're willing, you can also invest in some high level furniture afterward and totally revamp your house. :thumbup: SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
