Preface

My Windows hard drive kicked the bucket at the beginning of week 44 and I basically got nothing done (hence the * by it in the intro and also the week delay in posting logs). Given the current pandemic, stores weren’t that accessible and shipping was delayed so it took me a while to get the tools I needed to fix everything.

I only lost a few inconsequential things since the drive was mostly used to just boot Windows, and I was fortunately able to access it from the new drive I set up.

I did lose access to the original Google account I used to post logs to, though luckily I hadn’t made it difficult to copy the logs from it so that’s not as big a problem as it could have been. I do need to retroactively go back and update all the past posts with the links to the new account at some point, however. The account I’m using now has recovery options and the password stored safely somewhere else, something I’d somehow managed not to do for the original.

That lovely experience paired with my alt account means I haven’t done much except for continuing to AFK fish, though I did get a few nice milestones from it.


Progress

Every Agility level I get from Barbarian fishing means fewer laps of the Wilderness course, which was my main idea behind choosing to AFK there. I got 73 Agility from the time I spent there, getting me to only 1,740 laps to unlock the Rellekka Rooftop Course. This is also the level I need to be to use the Troll Stronghold Roof shortcut, eventually making herb runs better.


During one of the many instances I ran out of feathers, I went and did a quick Farming run and hit 52 Farming


I also hit 96 Fishing, fully unlocking everything that Barbarian fishing has to offer and eliminating the need for a harpoon for fishing Sharks. After I did this, I continued AFK fishing, hoping to catch enough Sharks to hit 87 Cooking. I burned more than I expected so I will need to catch more, but I was pretty close in my original estimate and will probably get the cooking level today.


I also got close to another Strength level which I’ll knock out eventually.

While training Prayer on my alt, I also decided to train Prayer on this account, hitting level 61.


I am inching closer to 1750 Total (22 levels away after this cooking level). I have the logs to get 23 Firemaking levels but I don’t know if I could really be assed to burn 21.6k Maple logs. I will most likely get a bunch of Firemaking levels to close the gap, though.



These were my stats at the time of this post





Goals

I’m still looking to train Magic to get within boosting range of Spellbook Swap, if I camp Kurasks I should be able to eke out some extra money for a few Construction levels (Lunar Altar is a goal I’ve been tossing around, as are pools) or at the very least break even with the immediate rune costs. I’ve yet to use my Chaos runes at Ankou, too, which is a bunch of XP from them alone, before factoring in Death (Magic Dart) and Blood runes (Charge and Flames of Zamorak).

I’m embarrassingly close to a Hunter level, which I should knock out at Sabre-Toothed Kebbits to get some Herblore secondaries.
