Marlaine’s Musings

After that third Thieving level since the Ardougne Achievement Diary cloak 3 came out, I am settling in to get a Mining level – I think. In truth – I can’t believe how easy and fast those thieving levels have been! If I wasn’t seriously of tired of it at the moment, I’d work on another level!

Since about 1002 teak planks gets about 100k xp doing the trophy guild build, I will just let the correct amount of teak planks build up before doing any of that. It’s boring to get them planked but better to equip to do them all at once really.

Ok – I broke down and bought a dragon pickaxe. I’ve borrowed Primefalcon’s a couple different days and it seemed ok but not that terrific – until we did stars together. I was at a star first and was on my way to the 200 daily dust but he passed me up using his dragon pick. His mining is 81 and mine is higher – sooooooooooooooooooo……… I have one now – now that he proved to me that it is actually better than the Inferno Adze…………… Unfortunately, I have to do those 2k battlestaffs now to have some gp again. I think I’ll pick nightshade this time while I high alk. Another unfortunate part – I have to make molten glass, to make orbs, to make air orbs, to make the air battlestaffs that I will be able to high alk once I’ve made the air battlestaffs………… sigh…………………. Plus, I accidentally bought packs of summoning shards with all the remaining gp I had – sighing again. Now I really have to get that glass, orbs, battlestaffs made to high alk ASAP! I would lose gp trying to sell those back to the seller. Sighing again………..

I am empowering the orbs I have made but still need to make more glass. Dang it! I wanted to work on mining.

Since the time things are annoying when you don’t know when you can do them – I’ve decided to put up a list.
Most of the dailys begin at 0000 or 12:00am (UTC)
To make it real easy – here’s a link to UTC Time so you can figure out what time your zone resets.

All the following are reset at 0000 UTC time:
* Bork can be killed again.
* Evil Trees can be cut down again – 2 a day.
* The Explorer’s ring recharges.
* The Falador Shield recharges to renew your prayer.
* The Fremennik Boots give a free teleport to Rellekka.
* Geoffrey, the flax flake, will give you noted flax again.
* The Phoenix can be burnt again.
* Star sprite’s 200 dust can be turned in.
* Zaff Battlestaffs can be bought again.

The following are reset at 0000 UTC time – plus one hour:
* Wizard Cromperty will give pure essence to those have completed the medium or hard Ardougne achievement diary.
* Dell Monte, a pirate near the Brimhaven House portal, will give you 40 pineapples a day.

These are the once a day activities that begin at your instigation:
* Arhein will sell noted Seaweed or Pineapples 24 hours after you last bought them.
* Bert will give you 84 buckets of sand 24 hours after you last got the sand from him.
* Miscellania Kingdom Management resets at the time you finished Throne of Miscellania.

I put the list up as the Daily Do-s page to the right. After all, once I’ve babbled on for a month or so, this would be kind of hard to find. Soooooooooooo……………

Did you check out the Patch Notes – bug fix/update list on the forums page? Holy smoly – that is one longgggggggggg list! I was just going to look quick but gave up!

I checked out the new hair – nothing suits me better than the fluffed up pony tail for the time being. I noticed that they did add some length to the styles before but no way to see it unless you get it.

Primefalcon and I agree that the Skill Totals worlds should be higher. Prime says 2k… I’m thinking at least 1.5k. Even my little characters are close to 1k.

As for some of the other news:
Watching Prime looking at his map is sort of cute.
Too bad the GE can’t back space when you are checking out something you want to buy that is one in a longer list.
Alking 500k gp items is not the problem so much as alking things like the Robin or Ranger boots that alk for possibly 10gp.
Smacking the Gargoyles should be a lot easier now than the old fiddly way.
Finally – I’ve always thought the Fairy Ring Co-ords should be clickable on the menu!

I made over 2k laws today because that price for laws on the GE is just too high for my sense of saving gp. Now that I’m getting a lot of pure essence free, I can’t justify buying because it would cost over 100gp just for the essence. I’ve also saved a lot of essence from slayer assignment drops, too – so I’m going to go make some cosmics to empower orbs as well. I haven’t used my penguin points for two weeks because of this blasted indecisiveness I’m going through. I want to do Summoning for that Elite part of the Ardougne Achievement Diary – that little accident with the shards pretty much assures I won’t run out of them for a while. Tisk! Considering how long it took to make 2k laws and how little xp it earned in process is pushing me back to deciding in favor of using those points on Runecrafting – since it’s for level 91 (double natures), it is a bit more worthy…

They made that Challenge thing too difficult to get any challenge scrolls for so long that I am not exactly interested in checking it out. I will in a while but Prime doesn’t want to at all. He’s been working on the imps since it came out, looking for a scroll and never got one. I accidentally got a scroll from a goblin or something a long time ago and did it but it’s no big deal – yet never got any other. “The leprechaun champion is taking on all-comers – there’s no need to find a challenge scroll to fight this little pugilist. Just head on over to the Champions’ Guild and prepare yourself for some ‘no items’ fisticuffs.” Well – I’ll give it a whirl in a while.

You can not have any items on you when you take the Leprechaun’s challenge – not even a ring.

It feels a bit hollow to fight and win against a level 32……………sigh…………

Larxus also gives you a bag of Calling Beads. They can be used to find out your accomplishments in the Challenge Hall.
