Masta News

I was going to do a voice over and do some cropping but I was just too damn lazy, there's a pretty decent QBD run.

Well that was pretty cool, I think. Is oldschool still a thing? We could make a PKing squad, that would be fun.

Old school is still a thing, but I don't think I can deal with the lack of content, EOC Really grows on you once you give it a shot for awhile, don't get me wrong there are cons, but I think we overreacted on how bad they messed things up.

I was the first one in the clan to open up to EoC. It took just one day of dueling to fall in love with it. Whatever they screwed up on release, they did their best to fix it.

If anything, the bossing is spectacular now. And PKing isn't 'thriving', but it is there now.

Totally agree. I remember we all hated Jagex, and we weren't alone, many people still do. Old school is still an option if you're really stubborn about not accepting EOC, and the community for that is great and thriving, but EOC is truly fun and it'd be a shame to not give it enough of a chance. I didn't think I could get used to EOC. At first it was really laggy, and I didn't understand the abilities and how to fight, but here I am sitting on 9 months of membership lol. It's kinda like when you hate a food, but you taste it a few times, then you keep trying it and it grows on you. Then you eventually love it and realize what you've been missing out on.

In other news.. I should be getting 99 fishing this week. I'll let you guys know if I find out a more exact date in case you want to visit me. With that done, I'll be dungeing this weekend for that long awaited goal that I've told you all about way too many times.

Damn, Masta knocking out two skills in a week. Well done, well deserved.

As for EoC, I'm sure it isn't THAT bad.. If people are still playing the game, it must be playable. I'm just gonna take your word for it, though, because I've already hung up my team-47 cape.

I personally love EoC, but still can't get used to the customizable interfaces. I'm still hoping that Jagex will release the old interface with EoC like it was in 2012-mid 2013.

I just realized that I want my levelling dungeon to be with those of you that still play. Does Sunday/Monday night work for any of you? If you're interested, that is. It'll need to be in f2p so Raurg can come if he wants. And I might try inviting my cousin and see if Swallow wants to visit us.

I'd be down.

Sunday night would be best for me. Finals start on Tuesday next week.

Alright sounds good. Swallow can't make it.

Meanwhile.. Today I was the luckiest I have ever been. I got two rares from the Christmas event, which is totally awesome. Although not the super expensive rares, I'll gladly take this.

Hey pizza bandits, sorry for not staying updated with you guys school has been pretty busy and my membership ran out a long time ago and it seemed like ya'll stopped playing then anyway. But i did have a lot of fun this summer and i really hope i can do it again the next.


Also you're a lucky bastard masta

They re-introduced tradeable holiday items?!

Good to hear from you Caleb, hope all is going well. And yes Luke.

99 fishing MIGHT happen tonight but most definitely by tomorrow. It's not a big one so I might just get it tonight cause I don't want to wait for it but I'll definitely wait up for you guys with Dunge.

Congratulations! 99 fishing, motherfucker!

Crap, Masta, I'm sorry for missing it! Dem finals got me all like 'oh look at dem finals, I guess I'll study and forget Masta's 99 party.' I'll try to make it for Dunge!

It's okay Josh, I didn't have a party cause it was midnight and I just wanted to get it over with. Anyway, 99 dunge will probably happen next weekend instead. It looks like I won't have enough time this weekend. Plan on being free friday night, if you wanna come! I know friday night is usually a busy night but I should be able to finish by then and I won't want to be waiting any longer.

Change of plans: turns out I do have enough time. I underestimated my xp rates for higher levels floors. Anyway, I think 8PM EST will be a good time for me. If you can't make it then that's okay. Hope this wasn't too short notice! See you guys soon.

Also lately got 88 summoning for unicorn and 92 pray for soulsplit! Winter break is coming to an end for me as I go back to school on monday which means the grind for 99 mining is begins!

EDIT: Since it's a new year, I figured it'd be a good idea to set some goals for myself and hopefully I'll remember to come back to these and see how I did. My membership ends at the end of summer, so I guess that will really the end of my year for Runescape since I won't have much to do back in F2P.

99 Attack
99 Strength
99 HP
99 Magic
99 Ranged
99 Mining
85 Herblore
96 Summoning
80+ skills
And of course make lots of money, which I definitely will since I'll be taking the slayer route for my 99 combat stats. I'll probably consider 99 Cooking/RC when I get back to f2p because I'll need an afk skill to train, but we'll get back to that when the time comes.

Doin' good Masta I'm proud of you , Pretty soon you're going to be on my level dayum, we can go duo Nex and st00f.

Haha someday in the distant future we'll be maxed together and it'll be great.

You're doing fantastic Masta! Keep up the great work.

Here's a picture of Masta receiving 99 HP while slaying with me

Thanks for that pic, Josh.

So I'm currently working on getting a dragon pickaxe drop from chaos dwarves which is supposed to take 8 hours on average. I've spent about 20 hours with nothing to show for it, so that's what I've been up to. I can't complain much, because other people have had worse dry streaks for other things, but the reason it bothers me so much is because they're not even like a difficult boss. It just gets tedious and more annoying than killing bosses a few hundred times. I've killed THOUSANDS of these stupid dwarves. And sorry to Zach and Josh who have heard way too much of my complaints. Now I'm just venting on the forums.

Anyway, yeah I got 99 hp, just got 97 mage. Magic looks like it's going to be my next 99, followed by ranged, attack, or mining. Speaking of which, 99 mining is coming along slowly, but that dragon pickaxe would sure help.

Double xp weekend is coming up. My initial plan was 95, maybe 99 prayer, but I don't think gilded altars will be doubled, so prayer is less of an option. In the meantime, I'm trying to gather charms for 96 summoning. Also, after chatting with a friend for a good amount of time, I've been motivated to camp frost dragons again in the hopes of either: 1. supplying myself with all the bones needed for 95/99 prayer, or 2. making enough money for better gear which is desperately needed.

That's all for this update. Will post pics of 99 hp when I get the dragon pickaxe drop .

Shit, the game looks even more different nowadays. Congrats on your improving leetness!

It's been a while since I've been on here. I've been making some great progress in RS and it's really exciting thinking about my near-future goals.

Some pics that I've meant to post...




Other than that.. I've just been spending as much time as I can working on getting money and charms for double xp weekend. I'm pretty sure I have enough crimsons and blues to get me to 96, but I'm hoping I'm trying to get enough crimsons that I can save all my blues for later. In the mean time, I've been grinding out that 99 mining. There's a new way of training it on rocks called seren stones and they're AMAZING. Ever since I hit the requirement for them (89 mining) my xp has been flying. So hopefully I can get that in 2-3 weeks, depending on how much hw I'll have to afk with. Regarding other skills, you can check out my sig for my progress on those stats. I'm slowly but surely working my way to max stats. And speaking of which, I might even consider 99 prayer. In the past it has seemed like a crazy idea but after checking out how much money I might need, I could get 99 with like 50m, if prices haven't changed since the last time I checked. If not 99, I'll definitely be trying to get 95 which should be very affordable. And along with that, I'm trying to get some drygores (level 90 melee weapons, Luke) which should significantly improve my combat.

So yeah... Some CRAZY things are at work.

EDIT: OH and one more thing- I've given up on getting that dragon pickaxe drop for the time being. I had to buy myself one if I was going to move on to seren stones. Perhaps in the future I'll go back to redeem myself, but it's currently a lost cause.

This guy must be taking all of your dragon pickaxes: https://i.imgur.com/9B4XSnP.png

Even A Friend's ironman account got one.

Haha, sometimes you just have a shitty time with some monster's drop tables. Congrats on the HP cape -- still sexy as ever. You guys are makin' me want to play throwbackscape again.

99 Mining!


Welp that was over pretty quick. I looking at 99 runecrafting and div now but they're soooooo slow. But hey, I'm gotten a bunch of slow 99s so maybe I'll tough these out.

Current near-future goals:
80+ skills
96 summoning (will be achieved this weekend with double xp!)
95 prayer and/or drygores
