Balotelli Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Oh Dankaz, sadly enough I dropped the clue, getting rune full helm and fire battlestaff is one thing, but blue dragonhide chaps is out of my reach at this very moment. However... Today was a great dayUpdate 30 may 2012My goal of this day was monkey madness. Not that easy on combat 57, especially because I was nowhere near 43 prayer and I needed at least 38 herblore for prayer potions.I started yesterday with killing blue dragons for around 80 blue dragon bones. that would be enough for 43 prayer. However, I was bored to death after 40 bones so I decided to do some pray questsThat's one After that I went fishing because I had to do some work for school. Fished about 500 raw lobsters (got 800 in total now) for this milestone And switched it up for another quest with pray reward I decided to kill the rest of the blue dragons and after alot of walking (no ectophial, didn't do ghost ahoy yet) I got this beauty The next step was 38 herblore. I was only 30 herblore back then. I decided to do the quest: Troll Stronghold. The quest gives 2x10k xp lamps on a skill above level 30.And in this quest, something great happened lolSomewhere in the middle of the quest you have to kill a level 171 guard for a key... It dropped this Amazing! I will need this later for a ton of level 3 clues... Great! I'm happy :D Then I finished the quest, giving me this And a good 2 hours later I got this... I didn't use a SINGLE prayer potion in the whole quest. Managed to go through the tunnel 2 times with 100 prayer points remaining and killed the demon with 76 prayer points left. (used yew shortbow from a lvl 2 clue and rune arrows for the fire giants i've killed a couple days ago)But yeah, glad I got that out of the way. Now all I need is 60 attack, the reward helped me though (110k xp in hp, def, att en str alltogether) And the the last thing of the day was upgrading my explorer ring 2 to an explorer ring 3Only needed one more requirement: 30 fm (those bonfires are amazing btw) And we got this out of the way, cabbage port is mine And we used the xp lamp to get another milestone. 40 herblore. So I'm pretty happy of today. Keep in mind that this is the 7th day on a brand new DIY account. (I was wrong earlier, tomorrow is day 8th, account created on 24 may 2012)I no lifed quite a bit but I need to relax now. Problem is that I'm getting more than 1 stack of 300+ of a member item. Trial members can not bank more than 300 stackable member items.So far it was only a problem with iron knives and iron bolts, both equipable so no problem. But now I'm getting close to 300 golden charms and I'm also at 300 pure essence.I know I could extend my membership but I would rather not do that yet, because my exams start the 5th of june and my trial membership runs out the 6th. When I'll get member, the chances of failing my exams will increase, if you know what I'm saying. So the thing is, I cannot start slaying YET (my favourite skill ingame), because I will have 300+ pure essence and 300+ golden charms in no time.The only thing I will do the next 7 days, is probably getting the skills for shilo village, heroes quest, legends quest etc... Or maybe afk fishing. But not slaying, sadly enough :( Greetz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddish DIY Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Wow nice progress man. I think im gonna tackle that Monkey Madness myself too today or tomorrow. Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Wow nice progress man. I think im gonna tackle that Monkey Madness myself too today or tomorrow. Any tips?I used cakes and normal antipoison pots for the most time in the quest. In the tunnel (you have to do it 2 times) I used two charges of my explorer ring and 3 energy pots (made 6 before quest)Now the whole quest isn't that bad, but I can see your ranged is quite low for the final battle. But that is no problem, there is a spot where you can hide outside the arena where the demon wont hit you, this is how 1 prayer pures beat the demon. They just hide and wait till the gnomes do the damage. This takes a while and you need to go fullscreen to see the demon's health. But you have to do the final blow yourself, so make sure the gnomes dont kill him completely, or he just respawns I guess. Oh and thanks man :) I kinda enjoy this whole DIY thing, having no regrets yet of "ditching" my main... I was completely burned out of playing on that account Gl on MM, wont be a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balotelli Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 Update - 31 may 2012Milestone while collecting some oak logs I did some level 1 clues from HAMs but nothing special, only one "real" clue item In my opinion the whole heraldic armour is bs... I love adamant (g) and black (g), but delete the h1,h2,h3,... lol Anyway; I got lucky when I killed blue dragons for my 43 prayer. One of them dropped a mithril hatchet so I could start and finish Animal Magnetism.Just helping out ernest first To get my devices :) Figured out I could do shilo village, so why not And another lifestone. My 5th skill 50+ And to finish my day, I got another record! 27 ores out of 28 bars, ofcourse no ring of forging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 Update - 2 june 2012[hide=Couple quests] [/hide] Got myself a cool outfit after eagles peak quest, lol! [hide=More quests] [/hide] Something random, my tab full of quest items/untradeables After the feud I went up 5 thieving levels, to 39. Decided to train that last level on master farmers. Herb seeds are ranarr & toadflax :) And from the very last quest I did that day I got lucky with the wheel Owww yeah :-) Glad I didn't buy one yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 Update of 3th june 2012The 5th june is my first exam, my last is at 22nd of june...My trial membership on my DIY account runs out the 6th of june, I wont make it member until my exams are done.I'll probably make it member after rock werchter (july)While I'm studying I'll log in 30 mins a day on my main account for 99 farming, bought it couple days ago Already got 92 btw Now, on my DIY account, I got some milestonesFirst of all, my first level 60, ATTACK! Bought myself a dragon scimitar, the main weapon I'll use until 85 slayer :) Did the quest for the ectophial And a couple others, easy ones[hide] [/hide] Got my second cosmetic item from the wheel Another milestone Med clue from ice warrior 40 craft And 40 def I'm not 100% slaying yet. I'm training some skills inbetween.My primary goal is 85 combat though, for Smoking Kills.Inbetween the tasks I train some other skills for these 2 secundary goals:1. MTK (+ royal trouble) still need: 25 fletch, 40 crafting, 1 raw shark (probably camp mogres for it)2. Cave horrors (= cabin fever): 30 fletch, 40 farming, 45 crafting, 47 prayer, 42 agility, 50 smithing Another goal, but rather longterm because I cba to craft my own runes: 59 magic. Mainly for the quest: family crest.iI wont cook any food higher than lobster before i get my cooking gaunts :PUntil then I'll survive on cakes. So yeah, if I find some time I'll do another update before the 6th of june, otherwise i'll see ya in july (I'll probably post the farming levels of my main account tho) Thanks for reading, bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balotelli Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 Hey Time for a big update becaues I've decided to renew my membership anyway. Apart from learning I still have plenty of time so why not...Anyway, some stuff happened... First of all some milestones30 farming 1000 total after completing the quest: the giant dwarf [hide]Some quests, including the whole HAM series Did this quest first for some agility xp More HAM![/hide] 2m total xp and 50 thieving 40 agility My goal at this point was to get 48 agility for the quest: the chosen commanderMy final goal was to complete underground pass and regicide... Anyway we move on, first time I could win in the pit, got this awesome mask And did this quest... Wewt :D Made 1 agility potion and @level 49 agility I went to the wilderness course, I got about 33k-38k xp an hour. Tripling my exp/hour from barbarian course (12k)So ofcourse It didn't take long and I got this milestone Some farming inbetween And completed my goal while doing a quest So it was time to do a whole bunch of quests in preparation of the underground pass[hide] [/hide] And finally... Didn't take that long, I completed regicide straight after and you have to do the whole underground pass again, it took me about 9 minuten lol. Ofcourse it's making the doll etc that takes alot of time while doing underground pass, you only have to do that in the quest. Mined my first star, it's a nice cash reward tho My third cosmetic item from the wheel... I also collected about 1500 cow hides in taverley crafted them into coifs and bank them. Didn't take THAT long though... All that work a ruby amulet I needed for a clueCompleted hand in the sand for 50 craft Clue was bad, BADDDDD O yea i figured out i don't need to pay diamond to get a dragon dagger, the merchant near glarials tombe sells one And got another effigy at harpie bug swarms... Rare Slaying is fun, another milestone And a great clue! The cane is not bad but the ammy... WOOOOOOT And 70 combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balotelli Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 HelloSorry for the lack of updates, but next monday school starts so I will be playing more runescape and try to update every couple days :)Although I'll have access to fifa 13 this saturday, so I'll probably play that game alot too :) So first of all a big recap of all the things that happened last weeks Solved a med clue 40 Fletching And my 7th hard clue, quite happy with the bandos cloak Big milestone for me, my first level 70 skill 1300 total Another quest First time I've done the penguins minigame. Was able to find 9 out of 10 (gotta do some quests for jatiszo island) 50 Hunter A nice prized pendant from the wheel 60 wc and 60 magic :) And completed a quest I started long time ago but couldn't finish (to use fairy rings) 50 fletch And completed a couple more quests, including one of the most annoying ones in runescape All this was necessary to complete this masterquest. Finally I'm able to catch monkfishes!!! Lovely rewards, too And the reward of my first daily challenge (had to chop 55 yews) --- And I have a new goal in mind... Here we go 1. Get fishing to 71 (monkfish)2. Cook monkfish3. Get a raw shark with admiral pie4. Complete fremennik trials, throne of miscellania and royal trouble5. Chest in MTK for 10 days (1500k): 9 on maple, 6 on flax6. Chop 8000 yews (makes 78 wc)7. Spin 8000 flax (makes 59 craft)8. Make fire battlestaff with crafting potion9. Get 8000 nature runes10. Once level 70 fletching from all the maple logs (MTK), craft 8k yew longbows (makes 79 fletch)11. High alch 8K yew longbows (makes 72 magic and 6144K) I've finished the first step lol, took me 3-4 days (not playing alot) I need the raw shark to complete fremennik trials and the fire battlestaff is to finish a hard clue, killed a couple 100 fire giants but they refuse to drop one :(Chopping 8k yews might take a long time, but I'll combine that with work for schoolI'll probably chop the yews at rimmington if I'm able to start the quest rocking out That's all for now, expect more updates soon.Grtz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hi, I'm back after a good 3 month break :) I continued with my big goal(first few pics are still from september) Those trials again :) And 87 combat and a lot of summoning levels thanks to some lamps Now we are back in december Doing those quests for MTK Nice spin from the triple cash weekend Et voila! So I've put 1500k in the chest, 9 on maple and 6 on flax. I will empty the chest every day and spin the flax.I will get about 8k flax. Now I'm chopping some yews too, but don't worry, I won't chop them all 8000 at once :P The flax will give me enough crafting xp to get 59 crafting (which is enough to craft a fire battlestaff with a crafting pot)The reason i want this staff is because I'm close to the last step on a level 3 clue and I don't want to drop it :P Another wc lvl Grtz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balotelli Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 Thanks both :D So these weeks are fairly important to me since I have exams in 2 weeks. While reading through all the pages I work on my 8k yew goal and I'm going pretty strong :) First of all a couple challenges 65 mining, lovely mining spot for coal and iron Small reward for a fun challenge: 100 arctic pine All I did after that was getting my woodcut up from 71 to 76 only on yews :P Passed 4k I also did MTK for 10 days, 9 on maple and 6 on flax. I need the flax for my main goal (8k yew longbows, or should I say shieldbows)Here is a spreadsheet And that makes a total of 8030 maple logs, 7500 flax, 54 seed nests, 23 ring nests, 3 egg nests, 4 toadflax seeds, 4 guam seeds, 1 marrentill seed and 1 tarromin seed.I'm not opening those seed nests until ..... i have bank space .... lol that's probably never, we will see, I'll farm all my other (herb) seeds first hehe Exactly the same challenge (336 maple shortbow) AND EXACTLY the same reward. I'm happy though. Dstone count: 11 Quick level in between, this sally might become handy sooooooon Ow yea armour upgrade! Welcome little helm. (In all honesty I forgot this quest gave me the helmet, I just wanted to finish this quest to destroy the jester costume to save bank space :$) Then I did this 3 minute quest. What a shame I haven't done it before (vampyre slayer) And as we speak I hit the 5,000 yews :) only 3k to go and I chopped over 1400 today Ö Also this milestone, 100 seed nests (46 from trees, 54 MTK) A full bank pic ? Might come later... A few tabs are very organised but the main junk tab is really not worth looking at :P Grtz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Rare spin... meh I also attended the last december weekend activity (snowman) I got some cool rewards but I was hoping for a dragon halberd, can't complain though In total I got 1 dragon battleaxe, 3 dragon longsword, 200 dragon darts, around 4000 air runes, around 230 chocolate bars, close to 1000 flax and 60-potato cactus together with some swamp tar, coal and pure essence. Then I did some quests All for this ofcourse Now I don't need to mine any pure essence to complete my goal (will start crafting 8k nature runes after I chopped 8k yew logs) Got this while spinning some flax Grtz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 HeyaToday I gathered all the resources for the longbows :) First, a fletch level (getting 70 now to get started) My very first level 80 skill ! And 60 rc while getting the nats And... TA-DAAAAAAA *dances* And just out of curiosity But at the end of the process, I will get 6144k cash from alching :D So the yews were basically the hardest part. Took me a full week to chop them in catherby (french world, no bots there)I got them with a rune hatchet and about 160-180 an hour. I had to read alot for school so after all I got them really fast.The bowstrings are from 10 days MTK and snowmen :P Only had to spin themAnd the nature runes are from pure essence I found in the chest from rune memories. I crafted all the nats via abyss, about 2k nats per hour So now i'm getting 70 fletching and tomorrow i'll start fletching those bad boys.
