It has been some time since I last properly played OSRS and it has been even longer since I have revisited this thread. It seems in my absence my account was compromised but I have now taken steps to secure it and I have managed to regain my wealth and items which had been lost.

For now I have turned my attention to mining. I don’t know if I will stick with this and run straight through until level 99 or if I shall take breaks by turning to other skills. I know that mining is a rather long skill with a fair degree of grinding involved.

I remember back on RS3 I powermined granite until level 77 then entered the living rock caverns. Back then in the early 2010’s it was a huge botfest, just a swarm of people. I am glad in a way that it doesn’t exist in OSRS, but it does leave the question of how shall I train.

I cannot say that the thought of power mining granite until level 99 pleases me. I have been using the motherlode mine for a little while now and i have gained full prospector gear as well as access to the upper floor. The xp rate isn’t brilliant but it is semi-afk which appeals to me. I am soon approach level 77 mining and I hope to make a head start on 78 before the end of today.

I have been moving back and forth between RS3 and OSRS. I now have level 85 mining and I can start receiving runite ore in the motherlode mine. So far, I think I have made about 10m from the ore that I have gathered up to this point. I hope to get level 86 tomorrow and make a start towards level 87.

I now have level 86 mining and just under 100k left until level 87. I should be able to get a head start towards level 88 today as well. I have started doing my tree runs again so I can keep hose going in the background, I have 417k left until level 92 farming. I'm not growing the very best trees so I won't be getting the best xp rates. It doesn't matter though as over time it will build up and I can make some progress towards level 99.

I have managed to get level 88 mining this morning and I have gained about 100k towards level 89 which I hope to get tomorrow. My clan has begun a skill of the week challenge this week which just happens to focus on mining. So far, I am in the lead by a fair margin. I have about 600k xp whilst the 2nd place clan member has about 230k xp. I hope to extend my lead today and with a bit of luck I might claim 1st place.

The method I'm using at the motherlode mine is not the fastest so if someone where to power mine granite they may be able to overtake me but I don't think anyone has the patience for that.

Just got level 90 mining, its a fair milestone and one that feels like its taken ages to get. I seem to be averaging about 300k to 400k per day so I think I'll get level 91 mining on Thursday. I have also been doing some more tree runs and it looks like I'm set to get level 92 farming by the end of the week.

Still level 90 but with only 180k left until level 91 which I hope to get tomorrow. I also have 157k left until level 92 farming so only a couple more days and I should get that. I am ever so slightly feeling the burn from spending so long in the motherlode mine but I am making quite a lot of progress and also making a fair amount of money which is funding my tree runs and more. It should come in handy with those buyable skills.

I got level 92 mining and level 92 farming in the end. I also only have 180k left until level 93 mining. I did take a little break from mining and completed the Kandarin easy, medium and hard diaries. This set me up nicely to do seers agility course until level 80 further down the line. The hardest part was getting a team together to do Barbarian Assault. I enjoyed the minigame but it is rather empty even on its official world and I luckily had some clan members who were willing to assist me. I think it may be quite annoying to find a team who would be able to assist me until I get level 5 in all roles.

I am nearing level 94 mining with just 190k left which I hope to get tomorrow. In terms of farming I have level 93 with 607k left until level 94. It feels like I'm making goo progress but I am not actively pursing 99 farming at the stage. I'm just doing the bare minimum but it seems to be adding up.
