The Runar Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I'm currently playing OSRS as an (unofficial) ironman. I started my current account (Old Runar) in February 2014. My current OSRS goals:99 rangedgilded altarguthan's platebodytoxic blowpipeserpentine helm[hide=RS3 information (very outdated)] So, after reading some other DIY blogs (Sydney Prime and itam especially) I decided to make my own DIY account. [hide=What is DIY?]DIY ("do it yourself") basically means that everything I do on this account will be done without help from other players. No trading, no teams for bosses or dungeoneering etc.[/hide] [hide=My DIY rules]no trading (GE or otherwise - except for two quests, Shield of Arrav and Heroes' Quest)no assist systemall monsters will be soloeddungeoneering will be trained solono multiplayer minigames (not sure about this yet - not that I play those minigames anyway)[/hide] [hide=About myself]I'm a 20-year-old "nubby fin" who has played RS for over six years. I've always liked quests and skilling a lot; combat is nice every once in a while too. I used to play mostly DIY before GE, only trading with other players a few times (to get prayer potions and full rune for example).Other than RuneScape, I play Minecraft, roguelikes (such as Nethack - no, I haven't won yet) and sometimes Civilization IV/V and Dwarf Fortress.[/hide] Current stats: Bank pics: 5 May 2013 8 Jan 2013 29 Apr 2012 16 Mar 2012 5 Jan 2012 16 July 2011 Goals: [/hide] The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

The Runar Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 I found a clue scroll, yay! But... I need 20 ranged for that coif. And as far as I know the only ways to get a coif are making one (at 38 crafting) or buying one from the Champions' Guild (33 QP)... The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

The Runar Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Thanks! I managed to do Priest in Peril and trained some stats. I got 20 ranged from cows and banked the hides to get a few crafting levels. Now I just need 33 QP for that stupid coif <_< Current stats: The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

The Runar Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Thanks both :) I got 33 QP from a few easy high-QP quests to do the clue and the reward was this:Not really what I hoped for... -.- Next goal: 40 fishing :) The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

The Runar Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Got 40 fishing, now I have enough food for a while... sadly I only got 39 cooking, so I need to fish a bit more to cook lobsters.

The Runar Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 Got 20 defence and slayer. Nothing really interesting. I wonder how I should train crafting by the way? I need level 41 for fishing urns, but it's not the easiest skill to train as a DIY :/ The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

Blake Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Crafting protoleather bodies in dg is pretty good too, you get about 20k per c6 at my combat level which is 30 on my DIY. Proto leather is only 400gp each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Runar Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Did Imp Catcher (ammy of accuracy, yay!) and Buyers and Cellars to get my thieving started. I got a slayer task of banshees, which are pretty much impossible for me to kill right now - takes a whole inventory of trout to kill just a few. It's from Turael, so I can't change it either. The plan is to kill chaos druids for a while to get my stats up (maybe 30 in all melees - will get me some herbs too) and then finish the task.

The Runar Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 The boss took a while, as I had to use a safespot and had no range weapon other than Kayle's sling. I couldn't be bothered to get a bow, so I killed him with the sling. The reward was certainly worth it, got 40 attack and I can move around much faster :) Will be using this until I get a rune scimmy from fire giants ^_^ The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

The Runar Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 42 combat and 406 total ^_^ I killed the Titan by simply running away after each attack.

The Runar Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Did Stronghold of Security and some noob tasks to get better armor :P Kiteshield isn't sold anywhere, but banshees can drop it.

The Runar Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 Do you think it's worth it to use big bones @ ectofuntus or should I just wait until I can get dragon bones? I've never used ectofuntus before, so I don't really know how time-consuming it is... The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!
