Aten - The Road to IFB/MOA/5.4/True, May '01 - Dec '12 RIP || June '18 reborn


Recommended Posts

Oh boy, big DXP special coming up... but first the stuff before double XP counted:

This finishes me up for Arc content, I'll still farm chimes while afk fishing/wcing/etc. to 120s/200ms and then probably pop those chimes on XP lamps unless I think of something better.

 

The grind actually wasn't that bad!

The supplies I started with ^

I started the weekend on summoning (blues during Amlodd hour, crims during non-aml at Taverley) and finished most of it by 8pm Friday. I then moved on to proteans, clearing up crafting/smithing and then slowly chipped away at Herblore. Along the way I got ranked again in Keyers and all in all I racked up about 150m over the weekend doing s/l. I used some of that to buy about 1k supreme ovls + about 600 supreme overload salves. I bought a few cooking supplies too (ye dumb skill to train on dxp, I know, but I was close to leveling lol).

 

All together, I did:

- 100 to 116 summoning

- 103 to 107 herblore

- 106 to 107 smithing

- 102 to 103 crafting

- 108 to 109 cooking

- 123 to 125 dungeoneering

- 101 to 103 fletching

- 104 to 106 hunter

- 130 to 131 invention

- 113m total XP (didn't lobby and hung my last hour of hunter xp on runeclan :S)

 

This was pretty much my first real DXP so now I have a better feel for how to manage my time and resources, as well as being able to give myself lots of time to gather supplies more effectively and at better rates for the next bonus weekend (I only had about 2 months to prep for this dxp). I'm aiming to maybe finish off 200m summ (I racked up 60m worth of charms in about 2 months + 85m worth of slayer xp and no PvM, so if I do my familiarisation weekly + pvm more + try to finish 200m slay I should be able to get 50k crims 20k blues for next time) as well as make a big dent in herb, smith, and craft this time around. It's probably realistic to aim for maybe 115 herblore or so and about 113 smithing + 110 crafting. Either of those last 2 could get scrapped for Construction, as my con level is my lowest stat right now. 200m DG will be done in the meantime for sure, likely even in the next month or so.

 

As for my goals going forward, I'm simply going to be doing more pvm and learning bosses etc. as well as trying to get better at EOC combat. I'll be able to get Maniacal/Zerker/Reckless in November when Premier club rolls around so that's super exciting. In the meantime, lots of practice at lower bosses (GW2, Nex, Rax mainly with some Raids/rots). Knocking off trim reqs bit by bit. Ports. Just general leveling, trying to finish Master Thieving and Infinite Ethereal outfit + Thieving Guild rewards (master lockpick and stethoscope).

Big week!

 

I've been doing lots of Rax still, getting much better at the boss though I'm mostly camping light path trying to get bottom right now. I managed to snag pet at 65 KC with 1 second left on the clock til system update on Monday! Lucky it wasn't a chest drop because I didn't have time to loot that chest actually lol. I also got 200m DG which has been a long time goal for me! I'll still DG lots post-200m, I want to learn how to dungeoneer properly again. In other news, pokedex finished + first trio successfully done at 64% :D 

 

I also made a huge revamp on my interface to clean it up and give myself more real estate. It looks much better than my old one imho. Coming up, I want to work on learning Telos, starting Raids + ROTS, and getting better at Rax. I'm quite close to getting comp back but I also would like to chip away at Trim/IFB requirements while building my bank and stockpiling for t99s and t92s.

Only been 2 days since my last post, but man it's been a blast these last couple days with the luck. In the last 48 hours I snagged 7 zygomites for a total sale of ~26m, got Vindicta pet, FINALLY finished my first spider leg (at 108 rax kc) which sold for 128.5m that turned into a Seismic Wand for Telos + some spare cash. I also worked on my duo Nex technique, getting a lesson from former WR holder Tatara who basically got me back to basics and fundamentals. My average times now are about 2:05-2:10 without Reckless aura and I've had 10m 22m 18m splits in my last 3 trips... not bad tbh.

Nex pet at 626 KC, I only have points to use T2 sharpshooter and this was a rare kill where I hit both casts of Tendrils + snapshot while also getting 3 ruby procs against my duo who has Reckless and T99 prayer.

 

Yes, as a matter of fact, I do still react like a little girl when good drops appear :p

Another pretty busy week, lots of MQC clearing and Rax while slowly chipping away at ports.

 

I'm up to 200 / 203 for MQC now, just need KBD, Ports, and 30 chompies to close out. I'm currently 70% into terracotta region atm and 7/12 on trio voyages.

 

Anyways spider FINALLY put out. I was 231 kills dry on bot path after endlessly spamming on last week's 1/3 and then doing about 6 hours of bot on 2/3 today finally finished my 3rd scythe, which was also enough to get me to my first "endgame" gear upgrade! T99 Mage prayer unlocked for 501m :D

 

Next goals coming up will be clearing more statues regularly, afking KBD when I'm studying, raiding whenever on-loot, and then raxing on the side to get Desolation.

When I first did 100 enr telos

 

1f21cd9bc5.jpg

 

 

My most recent kill, after spending 4 hours in the morning just getting insanely frustrated in practice mode trying to figure out how I can build a consistent approach to each phase as well as rotations/positioning/food usage etc. At the end of the day after talking with lots of Telos streakers and watching vids/getting advice I decided to just give it a new go and somehow got this (previously I was struggling with having any food left over, yet as the pic shows I have a bunch of brews left + decent hp + cade and imort still available).

 

I know this isn't anything impressive at all, but the point of a blog is to track progress. It isn't much of an achievement but honestly I put in a ton of effort to get this small improvement, I'm not a very good player or talented or whatever but I try to really learn and improve and sometimes it's tilting but sometimes it's just rewarding to see progress.

 

Maybe one day I'll be a regular 0-999 streaker and look back and laugh at what a noobie I was XD

didn't rly do anything this DXP, got zerk auras and just PVMed and did some non-buyables and cleared out my protean stack

 

T99 ranged prayer unlocked though, Nex gonna be much more hittable now! Next big item I'm going for is ZGS and probably SGB after that.

P much spent the whole week practicing Telos, doing a little spider, and perking my tools out with much better perks than what I had previously (settling in for the big 200m grind... Tinderbox has Pyro4Rapid2 + Tinker 3, finally got Refined 3 for my Hatchet, and just need to work on a Rapid 3 for my Hammer now).

 

got 2 trim reqs checked off which is a huge push, I'm now 64/66 with ~1M distance remaining on ports and about 2500 chompies left as the final frontier (as well as KBD book for MQC). I'm aiming to do about 400 chompies each night now which should have me done the requirement in around a week, then I'll slowly camp KBD and just keep pvming for $ + afk skilling whenever I'm studying.
