~`{Jøûrñé¥ Ôƒ Å §lãçkér V2}`~
Hello, and welcome to my third G&A thread! As always, I have never been great at writing these deep introductions and telling you my entire life story so let’s keep it short and simple, sound good?
My first G&A was for a single 99 goal, Agility . I had so much fun with the thread, and keeping track of my progress as well as gaining support and making new friends, I decided to create a second thread, but this time for ALL my goals. This is now the continuance of that thread, thus V2!
I hate the idea of wasting millions and millions on training skills when you could have fun collecting some (or all) of the materials on your own. For my next 4 (unless I get sidetracked…) 99s I plan on doing just that! (For the most part) Below I will give you a brief summary of my plan, as well as some other side goals that I’ll work on… eventually .

~About Me~
My name in real life is Wolf (not a nickname!). Ingame most people call me Doodle, or just about any variation of that which you can think of . I have a tendency to get sidetracked or procrastinate, so any goals mentioned in this thread have a good chance of taking me awhile .
At my school, the teachers seem to enjoy giving us plenty of busy work so I also don’t always have that much time to play. I like to run (track & cross country), and for all I know this had to do with me wanting to get 99 agility .
I made this account in roughly 2002 or 2003, but my computer and internet were terrible so I only ever got to play at friends houses on occasion (don’t have the holiday items from back then because of this! ) In about 2005 we finally upgraded and I began playing more often, and then in 2006 I finally got my membership for my birthday. (I'm not sure why the thingy says I got it in June of 2007...) I’ve been playing since then and have loved every minute of it . If there’s anything else you want to know feel free to ask!

~Explanation of Training~
As I said in the introduction, I am not the biggest fan of “buying” skills. Some skills, like herblore, you can take the fast and (extremely) expensive route, or you can train it slowly over time and it can add to your cash pile rather than making it disappear. For these reasons, I like to collect as many of my own materials as I can. These are the current four 99s I am concentrating on and the methods I will be using.
Mining
Before the update of the Living Rock Caverns, I was stuck doing this a MUCH slower way… so in my opinion that was a pretty damn good update! If you haven’t already guessed, I am mining gold all the way to 99. Originally, I was stuck doing this at the Brimhaven “horseshoe” which is less than half as fast.
Smithing
Using the gold ore from mining, I will be gaining 99 Smithing by smelting all of the ore using Goldsmith Gauntlets. This is roughly 50k xp, give or take a bit, each hour. Normally it would be very expensive this way but since I got my own ore, think of it as free . The ore from 99 mining won’t get me 99 smithing, so I will finish up another way.
Crafting
So now I have thousands of gold bars* what should I use them on? Crafting of course! I will most likely be buying emeralds and making all of the bars into emerald rings. I’m not completely sure whether or not I will have enough bars for 99 crafting, if I don’t then once again I will simply buy the last little bit of xp, it won’t cost too much!
Magic
I honestly have no idea what I am going to be doing for 99 Magic, mixtures of bursting (with my own runes), high alchemy, and humidify probably . I am open to suggestions!
Plans may change depending on the market, and I am not completely sure how I will train for the last chunks to 99, but overall this sounds like fun to me (even if it doesn’t to you!), and I don’t want to waste millions on skills that I could profit off of .

~But wait, there are more goals!?~
These two goals are going to be randomly worked on when I have the time, or when I want a break from mining, smithing, etc! I will be using partial “Do It Yourself” for the second one .
Ranged
I will be doing an awful lot of ranging at green and blue dragons trying to obtain the bones necessary for level 92 Prayer. After that I will probably resort to yaks, or any other enjoyable monsters… let me know if you have any fun ideas for good places to range! (All hides I obtain will be sold to fund more prayer)
Prayer
I will be using all the bones I collected and bought above to obtain 92 Prayer on my gilded altar. It’s pretty self explanatory: teleporting to my house, lighting the burners, using all the bones in my inventory and war tortoise, teleporting to Castle Wars to bank, repeat. After this, I will be funding prayer through different means explained later.

~`{What Do I Plan For This Thread?}’~
Many times after having gone to God Wars, or heard about a friend getting an amazing drop, I have wanted to be able to do that myself. Emphasis on MYSELF. During this thread I do want to gain many of the skilling levels I mentioned above (such as Mining and Smithing), but I also will be preparing to be able to solo Armadyl Godwars. I have most of the needed equipment already, but I need the levels!
During this thread, I want to get a rather high ranged level (95 Minimum before I should start soloing), and also 99 defence. I will only be obtaining bones for 92 prayer on my own because hopefully I will get some good drops that will fund the last half of the experience for me!
Also during my last thread, I had the plan to enchant all of my emerald rings on my own. After doing some of these I realized it was EXTREMELY tedious, so instead I will be using different methods such as bursting rock lobsters for crimson charms (with my own crafted runes), and maybe using the lunar spell humidify. I will be trying to avoid High Alchemy since it’s so boring, loses money, and is not really that fast.
If I decide to create an Armadyl Solo Log, I will be sure to post the QFC on the first page, keep an eye out for it!
Last but not least, I also want to get 80+ in all skills which currently I am not to far from .
New plans posted on page 2... Times change, goals change! Some of this will still happen of course, but for the time being I am heading in a different direction!
