Introduction:

Hello Tip.It, I'm ViT0C0RLE0NE. My real name is Shawn so feel free to call me that if you'd like. I'm a 17 year old male from Georgia [state]. As you can tell by my username I'm a huge fan of The Godfather. I guess I should give you information about my history with RuneScape though, heh. I started playing RuneScape in 2004 and played until about 2006 before I finally quit because I was becoming bored and losing interest quickly.

 

I recently decided to start playing RuneScape again and I feel I am much more focused on the game rather than using the game as a social networking website like I did previously. I have been a member previously on my previous accounts, but decided that I would start a new account from complete scratch so that I can be 100% FTP and max out on these serves. I like the idea of this because its a very big challenge and I think FTP is actually pretty fun even without having all those other options that PTP members have.

 

Anyway, that's enough about me. If you're interested in knowing anything else or if you have suggestions on how to better my blog PLEASE post suggestions. Also, please add me in game. If I don't reply right away, I will get back to you as soon as I can. It depends on what I'm doing on how talkative I am but I will ALWAYS try and reply. If you don't get a reply PLEASE send another message when you can. I always enjoy someone to talk to when I'm playing.

Pretty good stats after only a week.

Thanks. I've also achieved 50 strength and 30 woodcutting since that screenshot was taken last night. Along with 28 magic. I have been no lifing entirely too much, but its too hot to do much else around here lol. Not to mention insomnia at night allows for entirely too much free time. heh. Anyway, thanks again.

I'd suggest doing knight's sword soon, it'll give you a lot of smithing exp, enough to take you past level 30. Also do Swept Away, it essentially gives you ten genie lamps.

Alright. Just finished burning the logs I needed for 35 firemaking. I think I will do those two quests now. Also just broke the 500 total barrier.

Friday, July 29, 2011.

3:07 PM - I've achieved 35 Firemaking today. Along with 40 Woodcutting. Currently working on Fishing and Cooking. I should be 40 in both very, very, soon. I am then going to mine ess and RC or possibly mine ore and smith. Depends on my mood once I get these last few cooking/fishing levels.

Looking forward to following this. Best of luck.

Thanks man. Here's a stat update. I'm currently woodcutting a bit.

 

Good job man. Mind if I ask, where did you train your combat stats? I just can't find a decent spot :\

Thanks. Feel free to add me in game, if you'd like.

If you've done Dragon Slayer the island, Crandor, the Moss Giants [or is it Hill Giants? LOL] are a good place. Usually if you find a rather empty world that spots going to be fairly empty. Most of my levels have come from the Minotaurs in the Stronghold though, honestly. It all depends on what I'm planning to do. For instance if I need bones for prayer I'll go somewhere that drops big bones, otherwise I'm likely to be training in the stronghold.

Alright thanks! Its just that I have 4 defense and I don't know where to train since minotaurs hit to frequently.

 

I'll add you ingame when I get the chance ;)

Ahh yeah. See I trained on low level things like Cows mostly to get 20+ in defence and such because I needed the cowhides to craft. So I guess that's always an option, if you're patient enough to find a world they aren't extremely crowded lol.

I will have an updated stats picture later today or tonight. I've been trying to mine just a bit today but its the skill that's the hardest for me. All the mines that I can think of using are a long way from a bank. I don't want to drop my ores because I need them for smithing. I would buy the ores but I know I'm not nearly rich enough to buy the ores for smithing. So I am kinda in a catch-22 here. Any suggestions on mines that are good to use for low level mining, keeping in mind I need to keep the ores. I'm 34 mining by the way.

Get 5 more DG levels so you can access the resource dungeon in the Dwarven Mine and mine/bank iron there. You can then use the iron in the Artisan's Workshop to train Smithing.

 

Since you're only 34 mining, you might have some trouble fighting for ores until you can one-hit the iron. I'd recommend using one of the foreign language servers (I find the German one is best) until you're at least level 41. After that, if you want to stick with English servers, it's pretty easy to beat out bots for ores.

 

Good luck. :)

Thanks. I saw a post where you had mentioned to someone they should get 15 Dung. so they could have access that, so that's what I've been working on the last little while. I'm kinda slow with Dung. because I always solo it by myself. So I just finished that and made my way to the mines. Thanks again for the help.

As Kaida mentioned, the most important thing for mining at your level is foreign servers. I'm 74 mining and I still do it to make it easier.

 

I will be focusing on Dung and Runecrafting later because I know those two will take a lot of time and I will have to focus on the two of them a lot in order to get them as high as I'd like. So they will be put off until a bit later. I'm not forgetting them though.

 

As for regular crafting I've been debating for a while what I should do for crafting. I need something that's not costly, as I am unfortunately very very limited on funds. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Crafting with the leftover money at the end of a dungeon is a cheap and easy way to level crafting. Also, you can buy gold bars, make unstrung gold amulets, and sell them for a profit (this is about 30k exp/hr and 30-40k gp/hr).

K4ylan beat me to it. Those are both excellent ways to train Crafting. :thumbup:

 

Personally, I've been selling/alching everything left over after I defeat the dungeon boss and buying protoleather from the smuggler to make bodies. Then just sell them back, rinse and repeat. :)

Thanks to the both of you, you've both been a huge help. I have achieved 40 crafting [41 actually] and made a little profit of of the amulets too. Very quick and easy. Thanks again to the both of you.

No problem. If you haven't already, check out this thread: http://forum.tip.it/topic/255987-the-f2p-general-discussion-thread/

 

It'll help you a lot with F2P related questions. There's also a lot of F2P blogs that are nice to check out. (namely Sonic's and Kaida's)

I have been rather busy with school starting back and such, so I have not been updating this thread. Things have settled down a bit now though so I will be, hopefully, updating regularly now. I will have an updated screenshot of my stats later tonight.

 

Nice. :thumbup: What's your combat level at now?
