Jimmy Get's 1700 Total! Combat 101

[Jimmyd17]

It's about time this gets a re-right. I've kind of faded from my GReen Partyhat goal as of late and This will simply be a general blog like the first one I made in June of last year.

Barrows Set Up

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is my general set-up, give or take a few things. Add some bolt racks (start with ~100) and replace the ectophial with house teletabs and it lasts me 10-12 runs per trip. I may go after the elusive firecape one of these weekends as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How I Fight

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I go clockwise from Verac -> Dharok -> Guthan -> Karil -> Arhim -> Torag. I usually pray on Verac (not all of his hits are spec'd...), Dharok, Karil and Arhim. I use 5-6 prayer doses per run including the initial 2 doses to start me off, not half bad in my opinion. I have the couple safety sharks in case Verac really goes to town on me or if my Guthans is lagging up. I love staying there for long periods of time so I despise having to tele to my house after each run so I could safe a few cents when I could save some time and make more money. I slayer dart them all but Arhim, who I destroy with range.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Almost forgot to add a very vital piece of my profit/progress tracking. Salim123's Barrow Profit Calculator/Run Tracker

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One thing I love to do even more so than barrows is anything magic related... The couple times I've been to DK's I've had a blast even though the trips weren't exactly what one would call productive. The first time about 6 Rex's in a group came and made me tele, but Lordfan was able to waste enough of their pots they tellied as well. The second time I went there solo... about an hour and twenty minutes in (and after getting my first two drops (warrior rings)) a lurer came and I got a surprise 2 hit dead from Prime. Lost a Guthans spear, couple warrior rings. All told at DK's I've profited a healthy -9m.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Runecrafting! I love that one too. I think that is going to be the first skill I focus on here. Level 75 and I have 40k pure essence to waste away. I might even get myself together soon and make a bank picture so you all can see what I have to deal with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is still under construction. Later tonight when I'm off work I'll spend a little while on notepad and redo pretty much everything.

I've added Trip #3 to my list.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trip #3

Profit: 493,584 gp

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll start on Trip #4 tomorrow and should be done the following day, if not tomorrow. I've also decided to sell off whatever barrows items I get after every 10 trips as it should yield close to 10m each time. I'm thinking of keeping all chaos, bloods, bolt racks, and half keys until all is said and done because well, it's cool seeing them grow. :

I'm closing in on 15k Chaos runes (not all from this streak at barrows) Not too much significant other than my Deaths aren't seeming to show up. Two more trips and I may have to go buy or make some more. Guthans is now at 50% and my runs are getting wuicker every time around. :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for reading.

I'm on a unusually odd dry spell, only 2 items in 44 trips has me a little bummed out but I know that I'll start getting a few items soon enough. As you can see my deaths are beginning to become a little problem as it was a little goal of mine to not have to buy any runes through out this whole process. Skili was kind enough to donate some runes (Picture below) which helped a heck of a lot I'll tell you. I never would have thought that I'd be running low on deaths of all things. My Guthans is (for the most part) at 25% charge so the runes and BR's that I'll be getting on Trip #6 should cover the cost of the repair and then some.

[Jimmyd17]

Thanks for the luck. : Yeah, at least I'm proud that I, with the help of some other TIFers have chased Lego from Tip.It and have had all of his "goal" threads on RSC locked as it's a strict rule their to only post your achievements and they deemed my partyhat being an accomplishment on Lego was in violation of that. :XD:

Didn't do too much in terms of barrowing. Got lucky on Trip #6 as I finished with 2 items and gained on every kind of rune. Trip #7 was a little short and messed up as I forgot my bolt racks to kill arhim with and wasted some doses killing with melee. Lordfan21 called me out to do some DKing just as I was starting Trip #8. We got there had about 10 Rex kills and another team came up and before we could change some jerk brought Prime on us. I tellied but Lordfan stayed and made them telly after wasting a large amount of their pots too. ^-^ I'm hoping I could go again as it seems it could be better money than barrowing if done right and it's a lot more mage experience. Earlier in the day I went to kill the mole with a couple people. It was a good time killed maybe 5 or 6 before I left. I then finished off the day with soloing 6 moles. Only good thing was 2 ranarr seeds and knowing I can solo that big bugger. :thumbup:

[Skully]

Good to see someone helping themselves and getting back on their feet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wish you the best of luck. :thumbsup:

[Jimmyd17]

Thanks for the replies. Today I'm going to try to get to DK's for sure. Last night I was getting the hang of it for being my first trip there but it got cut short pretty quickly. Going to the iMax today. Canadian technology ftw... :

That's my best trip of the blog so far. A pretty easy night barrowing too. Only messed up once whe I walked out on Karil when he was redbarred (thought I killed him :anxious: ). Had it not been for that I could have pulled off a ninth run for the trip. Second Dharoks Helm of the blog so far too. I'm hoping tomorrow I can do Trip 9 and hopefully pull myself closer to that 10m per 10 trip goal of mine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for reading.

Tomorrow I'll promise to put up a picture of when I finish my 10th run of all my drops, runes, and anything else I find relevant. I'll have at least 7 items to sell soon. I expect another one tomorrow on Trip 10. Hopefully I'll get an item that costs more than 900k. : A helm, helm or spear can't hurt...

Level 83 Defence

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll be selling the items tomorrow and buying some more prayer pots to start on my 11-20th Trips. Profit was a little less than I thought it'd be, but I simply think it's because of the relative cheapness of the item drops. I averaged an item every 11-12 runs which is about average. I'm hoping to get lucky and get some pricey items next chunk of barrowing. Level 83 Defence put me to 1696 skill total and I'm very close to getting level 87 Hitpoints.
