Snow Day

Well because it snowed for once in 3 years here in Texas, a snow day was decided do I got to stay home! This morning started off with me placing in an offer for 474 bananas so I could get 76 Summoning. They didn't sell. To keep myself busy while waiting so I finally got off to doing my level three clue. Had one wilderness part in it that I was nearly killed in and was teleblocked twice >.<. Finally after 6 steps, a puzzle box, and the most complicated location for a Saradomin Wizard, I got my reward and a Rune Full Helm (g), 720k reward! Yay yay!!! That just payed for my summoning level.The bananas still didn't sell so I decided to go get them myself. Karamja glory > Edgeville teleport took forever. It was incredibly boring, but after 30 minutes I was off to grab a Kyatt and start Summoning. A converstaion broke out about rares, and ODST Isaac stated he use to have 8k Disks of Returning. I of course did not belive this for the following reasons:

1) Who buys 8k Disks of Retuning.
2) According to the information I can tell he know, he was not around when they were released.

I called him out on it and he said he started in 2003, I called him out again saying lies. he's 12 years old right now, if he started in 2003 he would have been 5. Most 5 year olds don't play Runescape or figure out how to play it. He eventually went quiet and I guess I called him out on his lies. Seconds later he shouted he was KOed by DH in Barrows. Zamorak punishes those who lie. He lied so Zamorak used made DH hit the 78 on him. To be nice I did try to make it to his grave I got to Barrows with 45 seconds left on his grave. I looked in all the hills and couldnt find it. Eventually he said it's gone, and then they all told me I was on the wrong world. He lost 1.5mil, and I couldv'e saved it :/

I went back to Summoning after my long walk back up the swamp. 75 Charms later 76 Summoning and 112 combat was mine! I love Summoning I would love to get 99 in it one day, but I'm not ready to increase combat levels, i'm not a big fan of it. For now Penguin Points and Bork charms go on. In two levels I can summon a farmers best friend: Giant Ents!
My day ended with me doing Zogre Coffins. I had never done it before and with 99 theif it should be easy to pick lock the, and it has. I really planned to Runecraft today, but until people buy my 450 Fruit Bat pouches and I get all my money back I'm broke and can't but Ess. Until then I'll be collecting bnoes fromt hese coffins. By the way- does anyone know what level clue scroll these coffins give?

Money Blowoff

After I had finally gotten 74 Summoning I counted charms and had enough for about 76, which is definatly 75! For those who don't know too well I cannot stand the numbers that end in 4 or 9 so this summoning level must be fixed! After blowing about 1.5 mil that I had gained from Slayer it left me with 75 Summoning. I thought that I was going to get rid of this ugly 111 combat and become 112, but I guess one more level is required.
Now I was poor, and I'm tired of it. I looked at runecrafting and with a loud sigh I decided to get 75 and have tons of money again. With this new update I thoguht Graahking was my best option and I've never done it before. Before I get into that I'm going to treat myself with an Omni-talisman staff! So off to the Great Orb Project (GOP).
I hate GOP, you will always choose the losing team no matter what you do! If you don't have a 50/50 clan then you won't get anything and waste 20 minutes with people who don't know what there doing. Eventually you drop out and half to wait to join a new team. Finally I found two clans that apparently do this all the time and I got my staff and placed my talisman on it. The question is was it worth all this frustration. For those interested in playing GOP for ties check out the clans: csieagleeye and mysticvaa. They may do it all the time but I'm not 100% postitive.

On the bright side to this Graahking was super amazing I made about 1,700 natures runes in 50 minutes on the Graahk. I haven't tested out chanced of double deaths but I think I'll stick with nature runes. I got 71 Runecrafting in about 3-4 hours which was only 47k even though I was slow, and made about 1.5mil in profit in 3kish Ess, thats not bad!
Well I already blew off all that profit on spirit shards and supplies for Summoning, plan to use all my charms and get 76. The mosre charsm I use the less Penguin Points I need to spend on it to get 80. When I finally get 80 I can start putting points on Prayer. Oh on a final note I wanna start bloggining more daily instead of doing a weeks worth of stuff and backing it into one entry, saves a lot less time in recalling what happened over the past week.

Familiarisation

Started off getting 83 Range on my Abby Specs task. I nearly went crazy killing 243 of them and not even one champion's challange! On the brightside of the task I did get about 600-700k on herbs in this task, hello money that I can spend on useless stuff for myself! :D

Went back to Kuradal and finally she gave me a task to enjoy, that's right Jungle Strykewyrms!!! Maybe i'll get a Hexcrest, no? Ok I didn't get a Hexcrest...I'm never good with lucky drops, everyone next to you will get the drop you want but you won't get anything worth selling. It took me a while but I finally got use to getting rid of their 30 attack, but sadly I still got hit a couple times from my own stupidity and other peopls fricking wyrms hitting me!!
Alright I went back to Kuradal to get 171 Hellhounds. I've never ranged Hellhounds since I was getting 70 range many years ago I hope 171 won't kill me, but before I go time to try out this new distraction and diversion.
Ok for those who don't know how to play this new distraction and diversion here's a short Eman guide:
Talk to Pikkupstix and gain the clue of where his apprentice is the clue I got was: northern Barbarians have a cozy home. At first I thought it was the one north of barbarian outpost, but I was wrong. So I thoguht northern barbarians.....Ah Ha! Fremmeniks! I was correct and there was the glowing obelisk. Talk to the apprentice and enter the spirit world.

Once you enter you will be turned into one of the familiars and automatically have two opposing familiars hunting for you. I was turned into a stranger plant and my two enemys were the ravenous locus and the pak yak.The clue to the game is collect to spirit shards on the ground without getting near any of the huntting familiars.

After a while into the game more and more familiars hunting you will be added. Everytime you get caught your mental focus on the spirit world is getting weaker and weaker and when you run out you are sent out on your way. If you need to leave earliar you can leave via the gigantic obelisk in the center of the game!

So through my game I got only 40 shards...partially because I had no idea what I was doing as a spirit stranger plant. you can turn in your rewards to the apprentice at the end of the game for either 40 minutes of triple charms or secondary summoning ingredients. The only thing I'm not a huge fan of in this game is that it's only active for 20 minutes every two hours! that barley gives slow walkers enough time to get to the poor obelisk. Traded my points in for secondary ingredients...100 raw rabbit meat and 22 goat horn dust, not bad!

Kuradal's Dungeon

Finally got a task in her dungeon, I must admit for not being a combat person I really enjoyed it. There weren't a whole bunch of people so you could fight to try to get one spot, and there wasn't any rude people at all. In my first 10 kills I got a Ferocious ring, I must admit it's really cool!Throughout the whole task I got four rings I don't plan to use the charges because I fixed the fiary ring so I'll just collect them and save them incase I die. That was my 70th task in a row giving me free 90 points and a total of 156 points. I'm saving up for them nice Rings of Slaying, better get started on 75 crafting.Finally decided to go and do penguins, I'm really not a big fan of doing them I get bored too easily. With my penguin points finally got 74 Summoning. I have enough charms for 75 but I'm too poor to get the level, maybe after a few more tasks I'll get some money back.


On a side note- What is it abou the Kalphite Caves that make people become jerks? In about every blog entry I've read or everytime I go down there people refuse to leave if there are too many and will steal your kills if you don't leave. If you still refuse to leave after that I feel like they're gonna try to kill you.

Internet Blackout of Death

I've been making some of my money back through slayer yesterday, when I got black dragons. I was a fan of these because I could range them and make money off them. I was on my fourth dragon kill standing in the half safe spot, meaning that one couldnt get me but if another one wanted to it could.

All of a sudden I stopped ranging and the dragon's life bar vanished. The other dragons around it were still, like the world had stopped. In the left hand corner of the screen connection lost-attempting to reestablish happened, and I was logged off. I lost my internet connection and had to restart the computer.

Normally I would have waited and just gone back on but something told me to log back on, so I went to my brother's computer and logged on. I found my rs character staring at me in the eyes in soul wars declothed, and a timer in the corner with 2:30 on it. I freaked out. I had no chicken, and only have 2:15 now to get there! To make it worse my slayer helm was under the grave. By the time I typed in my bank pin and got to Lumbridge it was at 1:15. I still ran to the chicken and killed one and grabed the raw chicken. 10...9...8..7... the timer hit its last seconds and I just stood there and knew this was it I would be broke, that's about 2.5mil in the death. 5...4...3.... 59:59...59:58... I was shocked someone had blessed it in its last 3 seconds!

I looked into the game box to find Dr Leviathan had blessed it. I smuthered him in thanks and skipped to Zanaris to get my stuff. Merch was also there and was getting her mage level on the horrid dragon that killed me. I grabbed my items, banked, and went back down there. Ranged the black dragons until I finished the task and gave that dragons bones who killed my to the mighty Zamorak. Zamorak do with his spirt it what you will.

The Strike of Bordom

Finally got 73 mining but I don't want to mine anymore. I'm not sure if it's that I don't want to mine or I don't want to go to stealing creation. Either way I'm bored with something.
I finally went to the circus for once since I got full ringmaster a while back. I really did forget that it does give some nice free exp, it got me about 500exp away from 81 magic. I grabbed some gold bars in my bank and went to alching, and before I knew it 81 magic and the first installment of those hot surge spells!

So for those new Strykewyrms I really want to kill some just to get a taste of them but you need them as a slayer task. I really don't want to do slayer just in hope to get the new monster as a task. Their drops of the Focus Sight and Hexcrest look really nice and I would love to eventually add them into my Slayer Helm. Once they die down from excitment and there are more of them in the world I may buy them, it's only a matter of time until they crash down. The epic Ice one drops the new Staff of Light and for those who haven't seen it here's a picture of a girl wielding one:
I really thought it was a feather on top but eventually I found that it was a blade. Maybe it is a giant feather. Their special attack makes 50% less damage for the next minute, that sounds really cool if you ask me, would make killing some things a lot easier.
Tomorrow I will do the penguins and I see a summoning level in the future. :)

Week of Wonder

I am proud to say that driver's ed is finally over, which mean that I should go back to semi daily updates instead of the one update a week. After getting my goal in agility I thoguht that I should begin mining, my mining level is really low and I kinda want 80! I've been doing stealing creating for pickaxes and the pickaxes are horrible for exp, but make it alot faster.

Speaking of stealing creation its not my favorite minigame in the world, especially with everyone turning into savages for supplies, I mean one game I couldn't even leave the base! With a few stealing creation pickaxesI went into the rock and began cracking the walls for gold. Mining really bores me so I have been on skype alot talking to some friends just to keep my mind focused with a little entertainment. After an hour of gold mining and about four pickaxes, I got 71 mining!
I then dreaded the fact that I must return to stealing creation, so I went to my house and looked up a star and with my surprise one was landing in about 10 minutes. Being in Merch Gwyar's chat I asked them if they would like to collect it, I haded yeses thrown in my face. With everyone at all their posts the star landed and we went mining. After a short time the star was gone and and we were stuck with each other to talk. Full of Pie wanted a picture of all the canting members that went to the star, I had blanked out when she counted to three and everyone said their names so I forgot to get a picture on time.
Then it happened, and I got it in my picture! Sparks had flown as if someone got a 99 skill. Our mouths dropped and the sky was filled with yellow words screamed 'wtf?!' IT then hit me that Dr Leviathan got 99 slayer without warning! After time we went to get his cape, but I was runnign late. I finally was able to drag myself to Kuradel and sent up the message saying 'half dead but made it' but all I saw was Full of Pie waving at me. Turns out we were the only ones who opened of the forge. Well why did I even show up?! Anyway we then went to his house and killed each other violently :D!
The next day I draged my butt to stealing creation and got my 6 pickaxes needed for the level. I was killed by this woman named M Sweezy multiple times but was able to some how get 20k points so my points were fine. I dragged myself back to the rock and picked at the god for a few hours and Bam! 72 Mining was mine! With enough gold for 71 Smithing so off the gold smithing gaunlet training! I refused to continue to mine anymore, so I got my pickaxes at stealing creation and went to Barbarian Assault with a group of friends. We made it to the queen three times and had a blast! I made it all the way to level 3 Healer and hopefully plan to go back and max it to level 5. The queen with my group was amazing we were able to kill her without screaming and yelling. While there we met a ncie girl who joined out skype call and she was part of our group, she was level 5 in every skill and helped our team amazingly. If you play on world 6 look for Lord Chandra. She's beast!Now for todays update of the new quest. It was too simple and now I have a ncie new pet to add to my menagerie, I can now only house one more pet D:! The only thing that took me a while was the maze but it was fun...next quest is 300 quest points...does that mean a big quest? I remember when I got my quest cape there was only 247 Quest points, gah where have the times gone? now that I completed the quest there's nothing more to keep my distracted from mining.
