anauijaram Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I dont think it was a skill to be used again and again. I leveled to my desired level, and then I built the house that I could use the easiest. I built just the teleport room, the quest hall, and the altar room, along with some bedrooms and some other junk. But mainly I built my house to help me get around easier, do things easier, just all around make things a little better and quicker. It worked. The 1.5m I spent to completely lvl and build what I wanted was very worth it. Teletablets are insane. I cant get enough of them. Even on regular magics I still use them when I go places it saves space, and time of trying to withdraw 3 runes and what not, i can just think of the city and withdraw a tele. Very usefull. Im happy with construction, but I didnt level it until probably weeks later and I did it all in a day. Everyone who said you need to be rich, its not true. If you cut your own logs and chop them near the saw mill, tele to varrock repeat, You spend no money, just making planks and thats not much. A few hundred K. VEry easy skill to level and get use out of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VEry easy skill to level and get use out ofMaking planks IS the expensive part. :roll: Turning an oak log into an oak plank: 250 gp. 1k oak planks = 250k 10k oak planks = 2.5m Still think this is just a few hundred k? Maybe if you are shooting for 50 con it's cheap, but lets look at 99, shall we? 13,034,431 exp for level 99. 60 exp per oak plank. 217,241 oak planks for level 99. That's 54,310,250 gp for level 99. Let me ask you again: Still think this is just a few hundred k? :^_^: I drew that smilie, btw, along with a few more used by this site.Classic bloodveld for lyph3!

Excl Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Yeah, I thought this was a great skill ... up until about level 45 when I realized ... holy poop, this is taking all my money! I bit the bullet and spend a few million getting up to lvl 60. Very useful feature in your house once you get to the higher levels. Power leveling on Oaks is no more boring than any other skill ... like fishing or mining. In fact, I thought it went a lot quicker than most skills. It's only when my financial advisor kept informing me that I was getting a lot of red ink, that I stopped doing it. If they were to incorporate plank making into the fletching or woodcutting skills, so you could make your own planks, I'd likely jump right back into construction.

Mollerz Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 If I had enough money to make 99 and then get the most expensive things in my house and had a 50 room limit then yes I would continue... I got 20 room limit done, so now I'm saving cash to get the best of the best... IMHO Crystal Throne>Demonic Throne for looks... Click my signature for my blog!

whiteboy1102 Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I think it's totally cool. I spent about 400-500k for lvl 44. I stopped cause i ran out of money and I want to do some other stuff besides build my house. I might dismantle my entire hosue cause I realized I don't have room for more than a 2 room dungeon.. And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me ask you again: Still think this is just a few hundred k? Rofl what a waste of time. Obviously not even a couple thousand people are gonna go to 99 construction. So for the majority of people that will leave it at 50-60 it is very cheap, a mere few mil. If you wana take time to add up what it would be for that, go ahead. rofl As far as the altars and people wanting them, I dont think enough people want to spend that money when they can use someone elses. VERY few people will get a lvl of consturction 50-60+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wild_goat_14 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 POH; aimed at high-end merchants or incredibly rich players. Personally, the most cash I've had is 1.6 million. Not alot, but it suffices for now, seeing as I have everything I need (full rune, whip). ok so the most cash uve had is 1.6 mil..............and u have a whip...... and ur slayer is 35.........how the heck did u buy a whip if the most uve had is 1.6 mil? I shall take my flock underneath my own wing, and kick them right the [bleep] out of the tree. If they were meant to fly, they won't break their necks on the concrete.So, what is 1.111... equal to?10/9. Please don't continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmoneyak Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 You only need 96 tomake everything currently available I would never care to max it out. Leveling it past 75 is the most borring thing ever. Not to mention expensive. My house owns all though. The Slayers Guild a Slayer Clan led by Axe Man Jack Proud to have written the most plagiarized Slayer guide on the planet.

Golvellius Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 It was a usefull update, but very limited. I feel like I'm already done with it. After I got 73, I got my formal garden in shape and my altar. I'm not sure what else there is for me. Sure I have a dungeon. But, its small, and the 20 room limit is happering me from making what I want. I doubt I'll touch it again. A new way to level and some more usefull features over fancy decorations and 0 xp giving monsters would probably motivate me to get back to it.

onauric Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I took 65->72 cons yesterday pounding that freaking larder and also spent few millions for some fancy stuff like marmor blocks and gold leafs and I don't think I will train it for a while now. :wall: I wouldn't call POH a flop, at least filthy rich people have something to play with.
