Rum Deal

As I write this, I am waiting for my Blindweed to grow.

I like the way that all equipment is provided to you in this quest. You search a cupboard, you get the stuff you need. If only it was always this way...

I thought it was quite funny my player being tricked by a pirate into helping, and it kinda makes fun of the whole "Adventurer" idea. Also, the way the main method of creating a diversion seems to be "Look, a distraction!".

Also, when you "Intimidate" a zombie swab, a message comes up saying "We interrupt this conversation to bring you a soothing picture of a kitten", and a giant kitten comes on screen, playing with wool! Very unexpected, but very cute!

AND, I like the way that when you walk around, the zombie protesters shout at you to come back, and all follow you around.

The level 150 Evil Spirit was so weak, it was unbelievable. It didn't deal any damage to me, and only took a few hits, it fought like a level 60!



Also, the result of all this is a bucket of "Unsanitary Swill", and the examine is "Sorry, I mean a bucket of 'rum'." This made me smile, as Jagex seem to have taken a humorous approach to this whole quest, and make it much more fun than usual.



Also, after some investigation, the Holy Wrench appears to be a waste of time...

Horror From The Deep

Since I tried out a rune c'bow + broad bolts properly for the first time yesterday, I have now realised how truly amazing they are. So, this morning, I made 10k broad bolts, and did Horror From The Deep so I could get a Zamorak Book, which would work very well with a c'bow and my zamorak ranging armour.

I am still waiting to buy the pages, but I have the empty book!

Also, the Dagganoth Mother was a lot weaker than I expected, even though my melee attacks barely hit her, she had very low mage defence.

Revenant Hunting

Today I made a small attempt to kill revenants, just to test their strength.

I first met a lv 126, who I got to just below half health, he then disappeared, I think because he had strayed too far from his patrol, or something?

Afterwards I met 2 lv 75 Rev Werewolves, got 37gp from one, and 115gp from the other...

I saw another lv 126, possible the same one, and discovered they are EXTREMELY strong! He was hitting 30+ on me, and healing much faster than I could hit, even with a drag scimmy.

Even the lv 75s put up a good fight, so god knows how anyone kills a rev dragon!

1900 Total

Woohoo! Finally got 1900 total, getting ever closer to 2000!

Baccannis' 99 Strength

One of my oldest friends Baccannis got 99 strength today, and I was lucky enough to be with her when she got her cape! I managed to take a few screenies too.

Go Bacca!

100 Slayer tasks

Well, I finally managed to complete 100 slayer tasks, also got 76 slayer. I also got 83 farming, which means I can do spirit trees, so I'll think about using them to improve my farming run somehow.

Skeletal Wyverns

As my 100th task, Duradel kindly decided to let me have something new!

Skeletal Wyverns.

An elemental shield is VITAL here, as is protect from melee and d'hide. Bring 4 p pots, and the rest sharks, as they can deal a lot of damage. They occasionally drop mithril bolts, and quite often drop 2x crimson charms.

Also, they have the possibility of dropping the Draconic Visage.

They are at the end of the Port Sarim dungeon.

Gargoyles

On the same day as I get 75 slayer, I'm given Gargoyles!

They are just past the aberrant spectres in Canifis Slayer Tower, and don't hit very often, but when they do, they hit hard. A ROCK HAMMER is needed to finish them off.

They drop some charms, the occasional rune full helm, but usually just coins.

75 Slayer

Got 75 slayer at Basilisks, need to learn how to kill Gargoyles now, because I might get them soon.



Also, getting closer to 1900 total!
