skiier5 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 _-*Going D.I.Y*-_ Hi, I'm Skiier5. You may have seen some of my posts on rate this or elsewhere on tipit. Having recently gotten 99 summoning, I have decided to sell all of my stuff, buy rares, and go completely D.I.Y. For those who don't know, D.I.Y, or do it yourself, means that I can not buy anything from other players, or use the grand exchange ever again. I thought that it might be a fun thing to do to start over from scratch money and gear-wise, and from now on, will be making my own armor, fishing my own sharks, making my own potions, etc. I emptied out most of my bank, keeping only things that I got myself, such as my void, and several quest items that are annoying to go get back. Here's my starting bank. Note that all the coins there will be used to purchase friend's junk when they log on. So, from here on out, I will be D.I.Y. indefinitely.

skiier5 Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Well, I have a story. This actually happened, no lies.So i've been going pretty good so far, got all talismans, went to spiritual mages, got some d boots, and enough alchables to buy a dragon scim. Well, I made a couple bunyips and decided to go abbys. 25 crims in, so about 70 kills maybe i dunno, I see whip on the floor. Wanting to take an epic pic for this thread, I PMed my friend, and was preparing to take pic when....Aha, Skiier5! You'll Do! Maze random. 75%, come back, whip gone. FML. Still trying to get another.

skiier5 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 Camping abbys with D scim finally payed off. I decided that I needed herbs for barrows, and for herbs, I needed to kill abby specs in the desert, and to kill those, I needed black mask. 5 hours of camping later... And the clue from that... Best of Bank Not bad for 5 days imo, considering I started out with nothing but void. Thanks to Dialgapoke, I can now actually post pictures, which should result in me posting my progress on a more regular basis. I have been barrowing a little bit, going for some sort of decent armor, such as torags, dharoks, veracs, or even guthans top and bottom. So far, ive only gotten T hams and T helm.

skiier5 Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 Hmm, my fellow clan members seem to think that if i were on a ls team, it would make it so that other people were "helping" me in some way. Further clarification on whether i can LS?
