Ty Thorn of RuneScape

After spying the penguin in Falador, I was given an urgent message to speak with Sir Tiffy. I ran over to his park bench and received a short, ambiguous mission: sandwich troubles. My mission packet included my trusty Commorb and the Orb of Oculus. Savant was more forthcoming with what I should do - make contact with the Sandwich Lady and use the OOO to peak inside her kitchen.

The quickest method to do this would be to hang out in a random event-free zone for an hour or so, then immediately teleport somewhere. I geared up for slayer and asked Kuradal for a task. Obligingly, she assigned 168 hellhounds and off I went. With the task completed, I used my glory to teleport to Edgeville and got lucky with my first try. The Sandwich Lady appeared and offered a sample of her wares. I selected a tasty breadroll, accepted the gift with purchase she handed over and pretended to step onto the green teleporter. While she turned to walk to her kitchen, I quickly ducked into a crouch and hid beside the bar. I pulled the OOO from my pocket and raised it just above the bar so the camera lens could see inside the kitchen. Savant asked me to upload the images from the OOO to her directly, which I did.

This is when it went pear-shaped.

As soon as I hooked the OOO to the wireless, Java decided to update itself. The stupid pop-up message had no 'close' or 'cancel' option and Savant and I were forced to wait for the update to finish before I could send the images over the network.

Curses

The Dahmaroc statue is fully built and dusting up a corner of my main study. I'm not going to put the same effort into building a second statue like I did with this one.

My RuneScape ennui is still around. I will say I'm not bored with the game, mostly with the skills I have left to work on. I keep making attempts to talk myself into delving deeper under Daemonheim with little results. I use the bank as a stopping point when I graahk runecraft and that's it. I've read up on the occult bosses and I'm quite turned off. The only things I do are the daily freebies, kill Bork and craft nats for 49 minutes.

Postpartum blues

There is always some kind of down time after achieving a 99. You've been in a cycle for days/weeks/months and moving away is hard. Though I didn't like making 15k teak tables for two weeks (with a break in between), I found myself standing in Yanille bank wondering what I'm going to do. The really obvious thing is to upgrade my house now that I can build everything. The down slope is affording everything. I went to RuneHQ and used their POH mapping calculator? to come up with a new layout for the main floor and dungeon. Once I had the plans, I copied them down and listed out all the items to go in each room. I'd set a loose budget of 100M, knowing I'd be getting a demonic throne (25M) and at least one dragon (10M). My rough estimate of the expensive gear - marble blocks, magic stones, dragon(s) - is in the ballpark of 60M. That means it's time for serious money making, going so far as to try this double nat crafting thing the cool kids talk about, along with herb farming and some slayer.

Since I've been figuring out what to do with myself, I felt it was time to give up and make serious attempts at the fight caves. I asked for advice from players who kill Jad on a regular basis and they tell me I should have no problems with anything except the prayer switching. I haven't gotten to Jad yet because of my own stupid mistakes. Finishing the damned KAD is driving me bonkers; very much akin to ME2 which I only left undone for so long because it was moronically difficult. That pushes me forward. What holds me back is knowing I'm very likely to die to Jad and waste 2 hours that I could have been avoiding runecrafting and dungeoneering.

Questions again

Since the release of the chaotic weapons, have the higher-end monsters (metal dragons and such) gotten tougher to kill with older methods (whips, godsword, range)?

What makes a good house dungeon?

Imps can teleport inside the magic guild. Does that mean they have 66+ magic?

Ook?
