Skillaz Time Tome 2 : The Elite Age

The day is borning. Wheather is cold but sunny and nature is still not awake.
Coffee is warm in my mug and i'm back in Gielinor...

I wake up facing an Edgeville bankbooth like most of the time after a good night. I enter my pin and check my bank. Something has changed i can notice it. It is not my bank.
I check my HP, no, i'm in good wealth... As i look my levels tab, i can see the little difference : 1900 overall. This number is shining on the screen and my memory is back on the journey to it.
A friend comes in and trade me a gift : 1900k gold pieces. A symbol of his support to this accomplishment. I thank him with big emotion. We change few words on the future and he vanishes as he came. He is my personnal Genie and i can tell i love him.
This 'unballanced trade' is surely one of my last. Gielinor earthquake that occured two days before will limit trades between players in few days to face the cheaters. We'll have to invent a new manner to support respective efforts.

Winter cold sun is now rising and romu is standing in Gielinor, decided to now use the work he did put in each skill to build himself a strong rounded bank. Time has come to be an Elite Skillaz.

As Chance is always arround me ingame, that same night my oldest RS friend and 1st Mentor comes back in. Real life and game evolution makes him rare and i miss him a lot. As he sees he won't be able to reach some of his targets and due to the trade update to come I'm rewarded for services i gaved to him with some huge materials including entire 72->73 herblore in grimmy herbs. We ventured together the new wilderness for the rest of the evening.
Taking this time away from skilling and being with friends is what won't change...
Maybe a new couple of monter hunter is here, still unknown. KBD, be patient ! The day i'll come to you approach.


Duradel employment for a week end
Well, here comes the week end and i'm not in a skilling mood. What about slaying ? I could still make some few cash this way.
This 200 aberants for a start was nice and Duradel was also a good master : only burthorped 3 missions (turoth, Warped Terrorbirds and spiritual rangers).
I got 10 clues(3), granite maul (from gargoyles). Clues gave me golded blue d'hide top, Sara rune fullhelm, about 6-7 rune sets (no kite) and same amount of black d'hide sets (no vamps). The money i made completed my missing items to venture GWD : wow i tryed mysel on an spriritual ranger, got 1 kill and had to left as i was being nailed from everywhere. I'll have to be back to understand. I bought sara coif for it and the clues gave me another one i enjoyed selling.
Bought ranger ring to make me more effective while ranging, still have the same cash and had lot of fun. A good time and a decent amount of xp.

Strong Skill Plan
After a two weeks cut for hollidays, romu wakes up back. Trade has been updated but there is much to do in that bank... Romu take the 'over' cash he has but keep it written in green, pikaxe and dramen staff. Fairy ring CIP and mine some few coals before putting workers back on coal/flax. And now... boat to Relekka and ferry to Neitiznot.
Romu loves this isle : Fremeniks are rude but pleasant people. The few players that comes here are either questers easy to notice with their coloured outfit, or silent skillers who cook smelt or craft. Romu decided to be one the those for some time.
His gold skilling cycle had to be stepped forward into crafting. He transformed the bars into gemmed jewels and enchanted it. This was enough to decide now to use gems for bolts. When he ran out of gems, gold bars were simply turned into gold bracelets. With future alchemy, it is a sort of gold piece production.
Strange thing in skilling occurs. At this point, Romu saw he needed almost the same amount of yew logs to go for 99 in woodcutting and fletching. And since the Earthquake, he felt bad to continue fletching through trades. Prices are way too fluctuating for him to keep advantage on market and GE prices are also monitoring players trades : no more way to exploit poor desesperate PK/woodcutters.
Time has come to be Elite. Romu decided self sufficience on this point. Strong decision wonsidering the amount : 56k to be spinned/chopped/fletched/rced/alched. A plan that could be driven for this new entire year... So, he continued crafting by spinning that mountain of flax and running mtk.
