Yes! Tonight I reached a nice combat milestone.

After being stuck at Combat Level 99 for what felt like ages, I am finally Combat Level 100!

It happened as I used a small smouldering lamp I had just won to raise my Prayer to level 72.

Whoo-hoo! :D
All hail The Empty Lord!

Congrats Kristen, and welcome to the triple-digit Combat Level club! :)

Interesting that you reached this combat milestone right before the start of Combat Week.

Yak To Basics update:

I completed Task #30 by Skilling and Killing 30 times. This was accomplished partly through my daily activities, and partly by working on the Runecrafting option for this task. I crafted 398/825 body runes, making six round trips between the rune essence mine and the body altar.

On my first run to the body altar, I encountered an Evil Oak Tree. I chopped and burned this tree, then collected my reward - some coins, 15 oak logs, and a willow seed. O_o I would've expected to get an acorn from an oak tree, but not a willow seed. Maybe that's what turned this oak tree evil. Perhaps it went mad believing it was a willow tree.

I received Pinchy, the scorpion pet. Of all the pets for me to own...a scorpion ? O_o My list of pets on page 11 has been updated. This is my 54th pet.

I went on to use a skip token to auto-complete Task #31, which would've been a choice between crafting 1,500 pieces of blue dragonhide armor or stringing 1,600 bows. Both of these grindy tasks sounded like a horrible waste of time, so I skipped this one. I still have one skip token remaining, since I bought one at the Spring Festival.

I received the Water Mage's Staff cosmetic override.

For Task #32 I can harpoon 400 swordfish or kill 1,800 monsters. I think I'll go fishing. Sure, it is Combat Week, and I do enjoy combat - but 1,800 is not a reasonable target with less than a week to go and 19 tasks undone.

Yak To Basics update:

I more than completed Task #32 by harpooning 401/400 swordfish from the dock on Karamja. I also caught 433 tuna. I ended up making 32 runs from the dock to Stiles, so he could note the fish for me. I added these 834 fish, along with 26 bananas, to my bank.

For Task #33, I can string 1,800 bows or chop 475 yew logs.

Time to do some more Woodcutting.

I noticed today that this Yak Track has been extended by another week. Now it is set to end not this coming Sunday, but the following Sunday. I reckon the returned and the not-quite-returned players needed more time to work on the Yak Track.

I can relate. :P

Yak To Basics update:

I more than completed Task #33 by chopping 476/475 yew logs in Edgeville. That amounted to 17 full inventories of yew logs.

For Task #34, I can earn 412,984 Dungeoneering XP or Skill and Kill 30 times.

Skilling and Killing is the only viable option here.

I completed Task #34 by Skilling and Killing 30 times. This was accomplished through my daily activities and by killing scorpions, mining and cutting gems, and fletching bolt tips in the mine north of Al Kharid.

I received a small smouldering lamp, which I used to gain 5,376 Prayer XP.

For Task #35 I can cook 1,200 swordfish or kill 2,250 monsters.

Fortunately, I am well-stocked with raw swordfish.

I completed Task #35 by cooking 1,200 swordfish in Al Kharid. Afterwards, I sold those 1,200 swordfish on the Grand Exchange for 1,080,000gp (900gp each). ^_^

For Task #36, I can craft/siphon 990 body runes or bury 1,400 bones.

While I could use the Prayer XP, I'll be runecrafting for this task. That will be quicker and not ridiculously expensive.

Yak To Basics update:

I more than completed Task #36. First, I entered the Runespan, where I siphoned 572 body runes (400 Runespan points). I then teleported to Varrock and made seven runs between the rune essence mine and the body altar south of the Edgeville lodestone. I crafted another 452 runes for a total of 1,024/990 body runes.

For Task #37, I can chop 505 yew logs or mine 595 luminite/runite ores.

I think I'll do some mining for this task. With my rune ore box in my pack, this task will only take me two and a half runs between the Mining Guild and the Artisans' Workshop to complete.
