Fedorca99 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 A little over a year ago, I achieved a goal I had been working on for over two years, 99 attack. (Here) After that, I just played around for a while, doing whatever I wanted to do. But I found myself getting bored with no goal to be working towards. I had a decent-sized cash pile at that time(~65M) and I wanted to use some of it to skill with. I thought about getting another 99 to trim my attack cape with, but I didn't want an easy, common one. Then it hit me. Construction was the perfect answer. I had heard that it only cost 45-50M if you used Stealing Creation hammers. So off I went to SC. Being the not-so-active player that I am, it took me several months to acquire the 4800 points I would need. Luckily, I bought the planks before I started getting the points at a price of ~440gp each. This picture was taken on the 12th of August. With SC hammers, you can get 500k exp per hour by making oak doors. But this requires constant clicking, which I just cannot handle. I would try to use 5 hammers per day (255k exp), but I simply was too bored of it. Slowly but surely I was getting closer and closer to 99. However, sometime in early November, I was grounded, so I could not use the computer at all. On the 24th of December, I was finally allowed back on. I was now refreshed and ready to do more construction training. In the past 10 days, I have gained nearly 3m exp. I also decided to get 1900 total at the same time. Today, after training my other skills to 1899 total and after a particular friend had logged on, I messaged all my friends to come to my house for the party. Quite a few showed up, and we had a good time. I have spent a total of about 38M on building my house. I based the design off someone else's that I had seen at some point. The layout is open, with everything I will need available. It also has a reasonably sized dungeon, with a steel dragon guarding the treasure chest. [spoiler=House Plans] Over the next few days, I'll touch it up a little more, then open it up to the public for some house parties. :razz: So, do you like it? :grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serpent Eye Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Congrats, Fedorca! Kinda stinks that you were grounded in the middle of working on this, but it sounds like it gave you a much-needed break. :) Your house plan looks really cool - I like how you've a lot of open space between your bedrooms/skill hall and other areas. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fedorca99 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks everyone! :grin: Right now, school is starting again, as well as robotics club, which will take up a LOT of time. So, I will not have much time to play. I will probably just get on whenever I can and do whatever I feel like doing. Slayer is one of those things I love, so getting to 90 may be an option. :wink: To those of you intending to do the same as me, don't burn yourself out with Stealing Creation. The best thing is to vary your playing style. Play a few games of getting 20k score then going to ancient everyone else. Then maybe switch over to a fast-SC chat and do a few games there. Or you could go on lunar magic and use vengeance-other on people. There's a lot of different and fun ways to play. :^_^: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome 99, love the cape. 10/10I think you have said that on numerous 99 threads now, not all about construction :P And grats, damn you burned Ace nicely. Click here for my blog.

tripsis Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Congratulations on wasting your money buying a 99 cape just for the sake of a 99.Does that mean that every single 99 in the game is a waste just to get a cape? Some people like the skill or the thrill of the achievement, it's not all about a cape. What else are you going to spend money on if not to complete a goal? Waste it on useless items? Or another skill "just for the sake of a 99?" Congratulations! :D Construction was my favourite skill when I was playing RuneScape :) - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrior5024 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Congratulations on my favorite 99 Skill, glad to see another person who truly does what they enjoy in the game, instead of what is most efficient.9/10, only because you used stealing creation. So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low C Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 How does it exactly lose value? Level 80 opens up stealing creation stuff, level 99 gives you the max amount of rooms which is useful. The maxed out pet houses clean up your bank and hold 10 pets. And the maxed out costume room free's up tons of space. Plus who doesn't want a steel dragon in their dungeon. Construction is a mixture of fun and has its usefulness. It's one 99 I will eventually get when I have the time. 10/10 fed I seen you got it in sodb's cc but I didn't have a chance to congratulate you since I had to go work.
