Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope you all had a great week. I went to my first "Black Friday" in real life and I will never be doing that again.

Got 98 Prayer on Monday. Went and cashed in all the zeal I had from killing Nomad plus altared the bones I had left from my push to 98 and found myself just below 800k xp til 99. I'd been buying 100k gp worth of dragon bones a week since the mid 70's prayer. Admittedly, not the fastest way but it was consistent. Then I upgraded to 1million gp a week in dragon bones a few months ago. Again, not exciting but consistant.

Then spent the rest of the week working on slayer and got to 94 Slayer and 96 Constitution. I'm doing a few days of dungeoneering and a few days of slayer each week to break up the boredom. And I can't say I'm even thinking about constitution leveling, just seems to be a byproduct of leveling other combat skills.

So then the new update came out. And my friends needed apple/banana/orange seeds. I hadn't checked my kingdom since the last double xp weekend so I knew there'd be a lot in there. So I checked it and started shoving herbs and nests and seeds into the GE. Most sold pretty fast and I had a nice pile of cash in front of me. So I bought dragon bones. And got 99 Prayer. I also bought a bonecrusher and a dragontooth necklace. Combine those with extremes and I can pretty much pray turmoil through 60% of a slayer task without needing more prayer. Very very handy. Maybe not the best use of my points but at this point I have a lot of them so I'm willing to spend a few (the other thing I bought is the antipoison totem. Amazing. Useful in a lot of ways. Highly recommend it).

Anyways, been dungeoneering with a bit of fish flinging and star chasing mixed in the last few days. Got to 95 Dungeoneering. Been doing a mix of larges with friends and mediums solo (I c1 the first 30 or so floors unless friends want them for the XP).
