2K7 DIY - Fresh Start


Recommended Posts

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 day

Update 30 may 2012

My 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 quests

That'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

Vop6g.png

 

And switched it up for another quest with pray reward

KotOO.png

 

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 lol

Somewhere in the middle of the quest you have to kill a level 171 guard for a key... It dropped this

laHFu.png

 

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

Us0sH.png

 

And a good 2 hours later I got this...

2m52n.png

 

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 3

Only needed one more requirement: 30 fm (those bonfires are amazing btw)

KrNZw.png

 

And we got this out of the way, cabbage port is mine

PN5cv.png

 

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!

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

Alright thanks, ill give it a try later. Will have to make some energy pots for that dreadful tunnel though.

 

And yeah, DIY is really refreshing. Runescape hasnt felt this fun in years.

Update - 31 may 2012

Milestone while collecting some oak logs

laIkb.png

 

I did some level 1 clues from HAMs but nothing special, only one "real" clue item

cMz1L.png

 

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

Qa87h.png

 

To get my devices :)

LAYm9.png

 

Figured out I could do shilo village, so why not

CtP8W.png

 

And another lifestone. My 5th skill 50+

YbUFs.png

 

And to finish my day, I got another record! 27 ores out of 28 bars, ofcourse no ring of forging

Update of 3th june 2012

The 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

dgEII.png

 

Already got 92 btw

LMkUL.png

 

Now, on my DIY account, I got some milestones

First of all, my first level 60, ATTACK!

9mPwt.png

 

Bought myself a dragon scimitar, the main weapon I'll use until 85 slayer :)

BwMcv.png

 

Did the quest for the ectophial

Yrd5Z.png

 

And a couple others, easy ones

[hide]rg19M.png

 

lYjnP.png

 

13crh.png[/hide]

 

Got my second cosmetic item from the wheel

1eTkw.png

 

Another milestone

PF8nG.png

 

Med clue from ice warrior

FyKX0.png

 

40 craft

BS83t.png

 

And 40 def

Hbobv.png

 

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 :P

Until 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

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 milestones

30 farming

120605105530.png

 

1000 total after completing the quest: the giant dwarf

120605115407.png

 

[hide]Some quests, including the whole HAM series

120605122149.png

 

120605132726.png

 

120605140758.png

 

Did this quest first for some agility xp

120605185733.png

 

More HAM!

120605202923.png[/hide]

 

2m total xp and 50 thieving

120605222256.png

 

120606003032.png

 

40 agility

120606113607.png

 

My goal at this point was to get 48 agility for the quest: the chosen commander

My 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

ByAZy.png

 

And did this quest... Wewt :D

LMLjM.png

 

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

20ZQj.png

 

Some farming inbetween

120607132118.png

 

And completed my goal while doing a quest

6qMhf.png

 

So it was time to do a whole bunch of quests in preparation of the underground pass

[hide]120607134913.png

 

120607140733.png

 

120607144201.png

 

120607172041.png[/hide]

 

And finally...

uPuqD.png

 

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.

Gaxi0.png

 

Mined my first star, it's a nice cash reward tho

120607163911.png

 

My third cosmetic item from the wheel...

120607172105.png

 

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 clue

Completed hand in the sand for 50 craft

120607222201.png

 

Clue was bad, BADDDDD

120607224354.png

 

O yea i figured out i don't need to pay diamond to get a dragon dagger, the merchant near glarials tombe sells one

120608001415.png

 

And got another effigy at harpie bug swarms... Rare

120608120246.png

 

Slaying is fun, another milestone

120608120554.png

 

And a great clue! The cane is not bad but the ammy... WOOOOOOT

120608123007.png

 

And 70 combat.

Thread revive - Didn't play alot last month, but here's a summary of the things that happened

 

Solved a couple hard clues, rewards were very nice (rune hatchet, crossbow, black dhide,... wewt)

120621001246.png

 

120621030652.png

 

120716112755.png

 

120720200515.png

 

120720234527.png

 

120721002920.png

 

I got most of these clues after a nice milestone, 58 slayer.

After 280 kills I got a black mask (got drop log)

120720154049.png

 

120721110740.png

 

Then I got some trophies :)

120718145835.png

 

120719152934.png

 

That's about it, my stats as of today

120810191155.png

 

My main goal is 59 magic, I really need those cooking gauntlets from family crest

In order to get 59 magic I need 2500 law runes, so I need to mine 1500 more pure essence, get 54 runecrafting and get a medium and large pouche

I also updated the first post with all the stats.

Then I got 54 runecrafting

120811020144.png

 

And this nice reward from the wheel

120812185759.png

Finished the quest and got the gaunts :)

120823172610.png

Hello

Sorry 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

120824001619.png

 

40 Fletching

120824235036.png

 

And my 7th hard clue, quite happy with the bandos cloak

120830212253.png

 

Big milestone for me, my first level 70 skill

120831144016.png

 

1300 total

120904153401.png

 

Another quest

120906150034.png

 

First time I've done the penguins minigame. Was able to find 9 out of 10 (gotta do some quests for jatiszo island)

120907092522.png

 

50 Hunter

120908163351.png

 

A nice prized pendant from the wheel

120909200058.png

 

60 wc and 60 magic :)

120909233429.png

 

120911125935.png

 

And completed a quest I started long time ago but couldn't finish (to use fairy rings)

120912005113.png

 

50 fletch

120912135118.png

 

And completed a couple more quests, including one of the most annoying ones in runescape

120913235904.png

 

120914145931.png

 

All this was necessary to complete this masterquest. Finally I'm able to catch monkfishes!!!

120914175153.png

 

Lovely rewards, too

120914175208.png

 

And the reward of my first daily challenge (had to chop 55 yews)

120919201609.png

 

120919201747.png

 

---

 

And I have a new goal in mind... Here we go

 

1. Get fishing to 71 (monkfish)

2. Cook monkfish

3. Get a raw shark with admiral pie

4. Complete fremennik trials, throne of miscellania and royal trouble

5. Chest in MTK for 10 days (1500k): 9 on maple, 6 on flax

6. Chop 8000 yews (makes 78 wc)

7. Spin 8000 flax (makes 59 craft)

8. Make fire battlestaff with crafting potion

9. Get 8000 nature runes

10. 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)

120920232955.png

 

120920233415.png

 

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 school

I'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.

Hi, I'm back after a good 3 month break :)

 

I continued with my big goal

(first few pics are still from september)

120921071552.png

 

Those trials again :)

120921183406.png

 

And 87 combat and a lot of summoning levels thanks to some lamps

121007154020.png

 

Now we are back in december

121215114121.png

 

Doing those quests for MTK

121215223644.png

 

Nice spin from the triple cash weekend

121215223710.png

 

Et voila!

121216195803.png

 

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

121216222925.png

Thanks for the replies ^^

 

Got this spin

121218124212.png

 

Already have a few pendants, I'll use them soon

 

I fell in love with those daily challenges, most of them don't take that much time but the rewards are awesome (xp wise and bag)

121218135945.png

 

My first two runite ores :)

121218202130.png

 

121219013930.png

 

Nice milestone, gotta do smoking kills soon tho :( (after my fire battlestaff clue)

121219014436.png

 

And then I managed to finish the christmass event + the side quest to get 200k hunt bonus xp. This is just great because this will bring me to level 67. More than enough for magpies :)

121219163838.png

 

So a quick recap:

- In the following weeks I will chop 8k yew logs, I'm also emptying my MTK chest every day to spin the flax

- I need to use the 200k bonus hunt xp

- I need to empty my pendants

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

121225231243.png

 

121225234716.png

 

65 mining, lovely mining spot for coal and iron

121226005209.png

 

Small reward for a fun challenge: 100 arctic pine

121226015017.png

 

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

11425595.png

 

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

121228165729.png

 

Quick level in between, this sally might become handy sooooooon

121228172120.png

 

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 :$)

121228185141.png

 

Then I did this 3 minute quest. What a shame I haven't done it before (vampyre slayer)

121228190957.png

 

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)

121228220542.png

 

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

Rare spin... meh

121229110500a.png

 

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

121230130517.png

 

121230190351.png

 

121230200145.png

 

121230220303.png

 

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

121230154849.png

 

121230165250.png

 

All for this ofcourse

121230165409.png

 

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

Heya

Today I gathered all the resources for the longbows :)

 

First, a fletch level (getting 70 now to get started)

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 them

And 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.

 

Grtz
