Bought a shiny new castle wars outfit:
Week Beginning 14th March 2011
I did my 2.7m woodcutting xps this week:
[woodcutting] Exp gains for Helen in last 1day: 234,785 | 1wk: 2,694,371 (96->98) | 4wks: 3,950,644 (95->98)
Ready to level now when Lieven is ready in the next few days. In the mean time I have been tidying my bank and clearing out the skilling crap, playing some MA with some very nice friends (thanks m2 and Rupert for the games) and began slaying again.
Lieven and I completed our long term goal of watching all of the LOTR films while skyping too, I liked the films and loved the company. ARE WE NEARLY THERE YET? Yes thank goodness! I have penguin points to finish so will do it with some kind of celebration this week *happy dance*. LOTR was a little like maxing, it seemed to go on forever and has been a very long journey, all made easier by friends.
(I still need to sort the bless account and get it back to GWD with 80+ kc in everything, don't let me forget!)
Week Beginning 7th March 2011
Thanks to the Bonus Weekend I managed to level 5 99's this week - Agility, Hunting, RC, Construction and Thieving. This only leaves woodcutting which was supposed to be an easy finish but it does not feel that way just now. I can't begin to tell how tough this was for someone like me with no attention span, I set myself the goal of not whining and almost made it, there were some low points however.
I also worked on 70 agility for my bless account so it can help at Sara GWD too, levels 62-70 at Ape Atoll even with the bonus xps was horrible, I just need to get it back to GWD now and reget all the kill counts. I love this account as it has saved so many people's shiny things.
Did a couple of nice Arma trips too, one with Wuv Woo Wuts and another with Skate Adore, thanks guys for breaking the monotony of skilling for me =)
2.8m woodcutting xps to go, which is about 45 hours of woodcutting until maxing, 12 hours of this I committed to watching all 3 LOTR films for the 1st time with Lieven.
Then what when I am maxed, is there a sense of relief and freedom and a desire to work on irl agility? Time will tell.
Week Beginning 28th February 2011
Levelled 99 hunt and agility at last! These 2 really hurt as I am not a skiller and these felt like work. Thanks to all the lovely people I met playing BA, I manged to get on some epically good teams at times and it was a real pleasure, I also met some lovely new friends.
The plan now is to level rc on Tuesday or Wednesday, three more assists will do it but it depends on the timing. I noticed it has been increasingly difficult to get rc assists, for a while I only ever typed 'offering all rc - chemie' once and that was enough, one day last week it took a good 15-20 minutes. I plan to write a guide to rc with no crafing when I am wooocutting. Friday I will level construction, then work on thieving (I will do thieving this week too). With what is then left of the bonus weekend I will wc (deep joy =$). There are many jolly hours of woodcutting ahead in the next 2-3 weeks.
I also did the new quest. As a member of the Caped Carousers (who all love questing) I will keep my real opinions of quests to myself (or maybe they will disown me!), I did feel however that the 2nd puzzle room sank to a new low of slowness which is quiet an accomplishment.
Played some lovely games of castle wars too, I am in awe of some of the really pro castle wars players, their skills are epic. Still looking out for a pro CW team to join if anyone can help?
Bought some lovely shiny pernix last week which I am so pleased with I will leave the picture here. The other screenis is in a friend's POH and inspires me to upgrade my house from an IKEA shack after I have got 99 construction:
Week Beginning 21st February 2011
I spent the last week plodding on with the skills. I was going to take agility to 99 but then realised this would be daft as I would get agility xps if I did butterflies, so I stopped agility with 800k to go and changed to hunting (when I get 99 hunt I will have about 400k agility left to go). I am getting close to 98 hunt now so that's the goal for this week.
A plan is formulating now, 99 hunt, then finish agility (I have enough charge in my horn for this). I will get 99 rc with 8 more days of assists so hopefully 3 more 99's before the bonus weekend. I will get 99 construction in the 1st few hours of the bonus weekend, then switch to thieving. Then only wc to finish alongside a friend mebbe =P. Seems like a good plan to my but it will probably change in 2 days.
I bought some lovely shiny pernix this week, it is very nice at arma. The other screenis is in a friend's POH and inspires me to upgrade my house from an IKEA shack after I have got 99 construction:
Week Beginning 14th February 2011I had a lovely 11 days off work and this was the result:
[ TRACKER ]: Exp gains for Chemie in last 1wk 4days: Overall(+6) +13,920,443 | Def(103) +19,100 | Str(112) +282 | Cns(111->112) +555,245 |
Range(113->114) +5,163,621 | Pray(99) +23 | Mage(100) +377,390 | Cook(99) +20,000 |
WC(95) +160,001 | Fish(99) +235,000 | FM(99) +130,000 | Craft(99) +1,302 | Smith(99) +50
Mine(96->99) +3,398,052 | Herb(100) +112,053 |
Agil(96->97) +1,009,640 | Thieve(95->96) +1,452,963 | Farm(99) +5,988 |
RC(98) +506,860 | Hunt(95->96) +604,249 |
Con(97) +160,000 | Summon(99) +8,624
I am thrilled to get 99 mining out of the way as of all the skills this was possibly my least favourite, I managed to do 1.8m mining xps in 1 day (750k from effigies). I missed some of my other goals however and didn't get 97 thieving or hunting so they are next on the list.
I am commited now to finishing this without whining about the skilling which is a tough call for me as I really hate it with a passion.
[12:28:23] * Helen is doing agility atm
[12:28:29] its soooooooooooooo much fun!
[12:28:43] *Koenpker 's sarcasm sense is tingling
[12:28:47] running and swinging and sliding
[12:29:01] no fooling you eh?
[12:29:12] not when it comes to agil ;D
[12:29:20] I am on a 'no whining about the skilling' promise
[12:29:30] lolol
[12:29:34] sarcasm counts as whining
[12:29:55] * Helen shoves a sock in Koenpker's mouth and says hush
[12:30:04] omnomnom
I love Runescape, but this week was the closest I ever came to not loving it, too much playing unbalanced with other things is really bad for you. I am at the point now where I just want the maxing over and done with so I can do some other things. I did play some CW this week, I had forgotten how much I love CW and can't wait to get back there regularly. Anyone know a good CW team?
Goals for this week (I will set some easy ones):
97 thieving
97 hunting
Week Beginning 14th February 2011I have a week off this week and plan to skill. 19 levels to go to max and hopefully I will get a few this week. Plan is: Kill cave crawlers with 150k of cannonballs, use all those effigies, then take all the skills the rest of the way to 97 (except wc). Pick on skill and take it to 99, whichever one I can bear to finish. No more typing, off to skill ............
Goals for the week:
97 hunt
97 mining
97 agility
97 thieving
something to 99
some fun too please!
Week Beginning 7th February 2011Too much real life and not enough rs this week! I was really pleased to get all the stats to 95 and agility to 96 though. I have been doing some things in game to prepare for massive skilling next week. Three more days at work and then I have 10 days off so I have collected vines to make scentless potions, grown hh herbs and worked on filling my ba horn (as well as buying cannonballs). The plan is to get 97 in everything except wc by the end of the holiday.
I had my 1st visit to Nex this week too and managed not to die, she is a tough cookie. I would really like to buy some Pernix for arma if anyone is selling
.
Goals for this week:
96 mining
96 thief
96 hunt
My plan for next week is to cannon cavecrawlers for 20 hours, hunt draconics at herblore habitat until I have enough samaden for 60 4 dose juju mining potions (30 or so atm), then hunt butterflies, mine with juju+horn+ alching and do pp for the thief. Agility will come with the effigies and using the horn. Rc will take 30 more days of assists, but with some effigies too hopefully that will be done sooner and I can begin to use assists for construction.
Week Beginning 31st January 2011Skilling went better than I thought this week and I managed 95 mining and 95 agility mainly thanks to some lovely BA teams (and some horrible ones too). I even managed to make the mining highscores one day and when focused clocked up 165k mining xps in an hour with the horn+titan+juju pots+low alch. Not bad for a non-skiller! I plan to get 95 thieving tonight then will begin on them all again. My plan was to continue to get the levels this way, but I have a week off soon so may pick one I have left finish it.
Lieven reminded me last night that I promised to watch all 4 of the LOTR films while woodcutting, if we skype at the same time then I could potentially drive him mad slowly with questions, good times!
I am well excited about free trade today, it's gonna be legendary! From now on we will take it in turns to pick up the hilts at arma =) Picking up some Pernix from the GE would be very nice too.
Goals for the week:
98 rc (I will get this with assists today)
95 thieving (Hopefully today or tomorrow)
Working on all the skills to 96 some
(Ps I do know really there are 3 LOTR films)
Week Beginning 24th January 2011This is the 1st week in a very long time I have not gained a level. Two evenings at Sara and 2 at Arma doing some ffa duo (and some corp) meant more fun and less skilling. As planned I have been working on all my skills to 96, I had been doing 1 skill at a time to the next level but the gaps are so big now and my attention span so short that I now do 100k of each skill then switch. The hunt and thief are easy, but the agility and mining I can't stand.
I did get a 1st this week, this was my 1st ever sara ffa or solo hilt and I was chuffed to bits with it:
I need to get a shift on with the skilling as Lieven is now 6 levels ahead of me, you need to stop distracting me nub
.
Goals for this week:
95 hunting
95 thieving
200k agility and 200k mining xps.
Week Beginning 17th January 2011Skilling, skilling skilling. I calculated that if I keep going at the rate I am now it will take me about 3 more months to max. I struggle to keep skilling though. Got 94 mine, and 94 agility this week. I was hoping to get 94 thieve last night but got distracted by some Arma.
Lieven and I have been doing way less arma for a few reasons but mainly because we have both been working on maxing, but also because we have been doing some Corp. I got my 1st ever Elixir drop at LS Corp this week.
Goals for this week:
94 thieving, which is that last to 94.
Working on all the skills to 95.
Week Beginning 10th January 2011I love the picture above =) I went to Herblore Habitat for the 1st time this week, it drove me vaguely mad unlocking all the creatures. I did 8/10 on Tuesday evening then went to sleep while my Erzille grew. I realised the next evening you had to do all 10 in 1 Jagex week and they had reset overnight so had to begin again. The rate I was getting was 120k an hour with 1 piece of the clothing and no XP boosting pots, I will probably do more of this at times. A lovely friend also sold me Ceremonial Robes and I am loving the way the skirt matches the witch doctor top.
I got the last of my stats to 93 and 94 hunt so far this week. Did a little BA so I am now working on 94 agility and will do a little mine and thieve too.
This was the 1st week back at work after Christmas and I was a little tired so didn't try Nex yet, hoping to soon. About 8 weeks left for 99 rc with assists =)
Goals for the week:
94 agility
Working on 94 mine and theive
Week Beginning 10th January 2011I was on holiday this week and with my dongle could do little but woodcut. I levelled 94 and 95 woodcut but no screenies as it was on another laptop. Begun my irl goal of swimming 100 miles this year with about 5 miles this week though.
Back last night and did some construction for a change, using the planks I have had banked for a very long time to get 97. It is going to take about 10 weeks for 99 rc with assists, then I will switch to construction assist.
I completed the lastest quest last night too so I can wear my cape again. Also timed myself ranging 200 Mutated Bloodveld, it took 35 minutes which is more than 1k slay xps a minute, possibly one of the fastest rates in game.
Goals for this week:
93 Mining (last one to get to 93)
Working on the rest of the skills to 94
Some fun!
Week Beginning 3rd January 2011Almost all the junk is gone at last! I levelled 93 thieve, hunt and agility as well as 97 rc. I began to play some BA this week to fill the penance horn, I had forgotten how much I enjoy this type of group mini game. Real life stopped arma, but we will be back there today. I looked at my gains for this last year too, the 30m range is the part I am most proud of.
[Overall] Exp gains for Helen in last 52wks: Overall(+214)
+167,149,799 | Att(105) +1,114,323 | Def(103) +1,525,041 | Str(110->112) +8,825,856 | Cns(108->111) +13,180,355 | Range(105->113) +29,434,062 | Pray(99) +52,749 | Mage(99->100) +1,867,336 | Cook(99) +739,747 | WC(90->93) +1,943,115 | Fletch(99) +367,465 | Fish(95->99) +4,274,159 | FM(88->99) +9,013,233 | Craft(90->99) +8,067,678 | Smith(90->99) +8,310,457 | Mine(82->92) +4,051,753 | Herb(95->100) +5,916,553 | Agil(80->93) +5,184,994 | Thieve(83->92) +4,227,904 | Slay(99->101) +2,381,333 | Farm(93->99) +6,200,098 | RC(86->97) +7,058,297 | Hunt(80->93) +5,124,361 | Con(85->96) +6,868,566 | Summon(99) +482,275 | Dungeoneering +15,935,493
Goals for this week:
93 Mining (last one to get to 93)
94 wc
Week Beginning 27th DecemberI have been working at shifting 500m junk, only 100m left now =) Got all my stats to 92 and started working on getting them to 93. I have been trying cannong cave crawlers this week and pcked up a few effigies this way which take me close to 97 rc. Once I have 97 I think I will finish the rc with assists and use the effigy lamps on agility. Arma went well and I picked up a few nice armour pieces but no hilts. My range rank is now 225 =)
Goals for this week:
97 rc
Working on all the skills to 93
Some mean nub:
Week Beginning 2nd JanuaryBought a white phat (see image below). I did this hours before the rares market crashed so I am left with lots of junk now, it does not matter so much as the hat is to keep, not just for Christmas. Levelled 92 thief and 92 agility, only 300k mining left to finish. It has been a busy week however and not much rs time and only 1 arma trip sadly. Two weeks holiday now, I will try work on all of the level 92 stats some and clear some of the junk too. Merry Christmas all =)
Goals for this week:
92 Mining
Working on all the stats to 93
50 strength xps at last!
Week Beginning 20th December Levelled 92 hunt and 91 mining this week, also 52m range. I am about half way to 92 agility too. Lieven is suggesting I focus on 1 skill at a time, I think I will try and keep going this way however for as long as I can. Less arma than usual as lots of pre-Christmas events, I am hoping that changes soon as the holidays start on Thirsday. I decided to try and upgrade my red phat to a white too, no hurry on this one though. I have had the red longest of all and bought it to match my slay cape 2 years ago, it matches so few other things though so it is time to do what I said I never would and sell it.
Goals for this week:
50m str xps, which is way overdue
Work on the 3 skills still at level 91, and get them all to 92 by year end.
Week beginning 13th december The agility is seriously hurting, I can cope with the thieving and hunting, the mining is tough and slow, but the agility is just horrible. I try really hard to focus but it does not last long.
50M strength was a long term goal I set myself at the begining of 2010 for the year, I have been slacking on this one and training range where ever possible, this week I will try finish this goal too though.
Goals for this week -
91 Mining and 92 hunt.
Week beginning 6th December - After a snow week off work I am back today. The week was great for my skills as I got the last ones to 90. Suprisingly I am finding hunting the easiest of these skills, it is agility and mining I really struggle with. On the pvm side I did some duo Arma of course (a hilt for Lieven this week), some trio Saradomin with Lieven and Skate Adore and got my 1st ever Saradomin sword drop, and some Bandos with other friends which was a little disasterous as the world dc'd twice causing 3 of the 5 of us to die, though we all got our things back. I will not be going cs/ls Bandos again for a long time, the repeated crashing, at one point by 2 teams together so there were about 20 of us in there, is horrible and can't possibly be profitable for anyone and it is just not worth the trouble. Jagex need to sort the world crashes too and stop faffing and blaming browsers and accept this is their issue.
Goals for this week -
91 thieving and
hunt and
96 rc
Week beginning 29th November - So much snow here in Scotland that I have had 3 snow days so far, this was a good opportunity to work on my goal for December which was to get all my stats to 90. Hunt and mining are done, I will work on agility next. My attention span is next to zero so I find this very difficult. Evenings I then PvM or slay, we have had a very long 400 or so dry kills at arma and 500 kills with no effigy.
Goals for next week - 91 thieving and hunt.

Nice kills and recent levels too. I loved the Stat history it really shows how active you are and how much you care about your account. Great job and keep up the good work! 
This thread is really simple too, but I like that about it. It's unique. I think that's lost more often than not with the numerous amounts of achievement threads nowadays. I get the feeling from your past achievements that your account is unique in its own way as well, so I have no doubt you'll be able to retain that uniqueness in your thread.
