Expanding My Range…..
As the last post said, only 100k left to go to Range Level 97! I knew it would help a great deal to save up the extra zeal for that 100 bonus. I was chattering to Primefalcon as I finished writing that last blog and it suddenly occurred to me that – gasp – I have 32 Penguin Points saved up. I wish I hadn’t thought about that – really!!!!!! It is soooooooooooo tempting to use them for this level………
I’d have about 20 – 25k to go.
No – I am saying to myself at this moment! No!!! Mar – no!
Poooooooooo – I had to go make some addy bolts before I could start working on range but that will help my smithing. And Fletch ……. snickering………
Well – I’ve been doing Aberrant Spectres, using range and Deflect Magic – and have gotten it down to 50k to the range level without using the Penguin Points……. It’s given me a good chance to try out that Soul Wars cape and it sure does slow down the prayer drain noticeably! I use the House tele to get back to the Canifis bank to re-supply and bank all those incredible herbs and seeds. My chapel is just steps away from my tele spot so it’s especially convenient to top up my prayer – I often let the prayer drain away when I know I am going to bank soon. Also – the Aberrants drop a lot of ranarr weed and great seeds, including Snapdragons!
Kuradal gave me 98 Steel Dragons as my next assignment – great task when I want to be Ranging! ….and here is the level!
The dragons had toasted me a bit when I first ran in there but by the time I got the level, the hitpoints had recovered a little. So – over 900k xp in Range – all in one day without using the Penguin Points! I couldn’t catch the banner because the dragon kept hitting me……… shrugs……… just a tiny burst of fireworks but it is there. I’ll work on the dragons more tomorrow – it’s late here now and I am really tired. Snowing and going into a cold spell as well so………… great time to bundle up and sleep through the worst of it.
Good night and sleep warm all of you in the Midwest!
