Road to maxed Range Tank

[Whiskey]

Figured I would do something on the forums since I am nearly a maxed out Range tank, I will post updates on my build here.

Do some older pictures on my build as well as other achievements I have done so far to date.

Little history on the account. I made the range tank day one of Oldschool, as I was a Range Tank pre-EOC. Ended up enjoying skilling a fair bit on here so I was buying 99s left and right, not sure exactly when I decided to go for a maxed out range tank but as of today (5/23/17) I am 2161 total with 39 levels to max. (I max out total level at 2200)

The skills I will not be training are Attack, which will stay at 75. Strength, which will stay at 70. As well as prayer, which I will leave to 75 (for now, undecided if I want to get 99 as it would put me at 109cb instead of 106cb.

Attack
[spoiler]
Attack I finished in December of 2015, it was right around the 17th when I finally finished. I trained most of it via slayer but finished off the remaining levels in NMZ.

Strength
[spoiler]
Strength is finished as well, as most of these pictures will be old since I am nearly finished. Strength finished the same day as Attack was, December 17th, 2015. This was a mix of slayer and remaining xp finished in NMZ as well.
Finished December 17th, 2015.

Defence
[spoiler]
Defence I did a few Million XP in NMZ back when AFK guthan's was still in the game, if I can remember correctly i stopped around 80 and did defensive slayer with a whip.
Finished Febuary 18th, 2016.

Ranged
[Spoiler]
Ranged was done primaraly through slayer as well as PvM. On the inital release of the updated drop table to Wyverns I camped them for about 6K kills which got me right around level 85-90 or so. Once I was getting close to getting the level I did NMZ with a blowpipe as I could never figure out how to chin in MM1 caves properly, that was levels 97-99.
Finished August 22nd, 2015.

Prayer
[Spoiler]
Prayer was done with all dragon bones in a POH, this was finished very quick. Not much else to say about this other than I may at some point in the future go to 99 so I can finish off the Desert Elite diary and get Augury.
Finished (level 75) December 17th, 2015.

Magic
[Spoiler]
Magic was done from high alching (55-75) so I could use the trident, after level 75 I got levels from PvM. Around level 85 I decided to finish 99, I played around with many methods back including Stun-Alching, splashing, barraging ect. I ended off the levels as fast as possible using Plank Make + Imbue to get 210k/hr which at the time was the fastest way to train magic without barraging.
Finished April 9th, 2016.

Runecrafting
[Spoiler]
Runecrafting was done pretty normal. Fire runes at the start then a mix of Cosmics, single nats to right around level 70. Once I got to level 70 I have been doing primaraly Lava runecrafting which is the fastest XP/HR in the game. Currently level 86.
Currently not finished.
[/Spoiler]

Construction
[Spoiler]
Construction was done via oak larders until I got to the point of doing Mahogany Tables which I did to 75 so I could train prayer using the gilded altar. Once the upadate for more POH items came out (Occult Altar and pools) I bought 99 and was planning to do it from 75-99 via Oak Dungeon Doors but I disliked the method as well as XP/HR so I finished off the entire skill from 85-99 with Mahogany Tables.
Finished October 4th, 2016.

Agility
[Spoiler]
Since I have been playing since the inital release of oldschool I did a part of my agility much different than how agility is trained now. Not exactly sure what I did for the really early levels but once rooftop agility came out I did Canafis > Wildy > Seers > Pollnivneach > seers to 87 > Ardy boosted to 90 and am currently 93 agility with plans to finish off the skill soon.
Currently not finished.
[/Spoiler]

Herblore
[Spoiler]
Herblore I enjoyed very much, I did a wide range of potions starting with Prayer potions before GWD release which were extremely profitable, when I eventually planned out going to 99 I changed the potion I was making several times as the GP/XP changed. Once I got to level 90 I was going to finish off the skill with Super Combat Potions since they were breakeven and fast but I couldnt enjoy them so I finished off all the way to 99 with Saradomin Brews.
Finished May 7th, 2016.

Thieving
[Spoiler]
Thieving I trained quite normally for the most part, I never did Pyramid Plunder and instead did BlackJacking to 75 followed by Ardy Knights to 99. When doing Ardy Knights I just spammed my left button and watched TV shows or movies.
Finished December 5th, 2016.

Crafting
[Spoiler]
Crafting was quoite enjoyable for me, I got 75 much before the slayer rings came out by tanning d'hides in Al Kharid, quite some time passed before I trained it again when I decided to go for 99. Once I planned to do 99 I did Air Battlestaffs to 87 and was planning on doing Dorgeshuun Light orbs for the rest but I was talked into finishing faster with Air battlestaffs.
Finished June 22nd, 2016.

Fletching
[Spoiler]
Fletching was one of the first skills I got fairly high, doing longbows for most of it which burnt me out from the skill completly. When I started out going for max I put off doing for so long it demotivated me to even think
about having to train it as I did not enjoy doing longbows. Once I had a stable income of money I did the entire 99 from mithril and adamant dart tips.
Fletching finished January 18th, 2016.

Slayer
[Spoiler]
Slayer is a very fun skill, coming passivly from training my combats. I am currently holding off on doing slayer until I have comeplete max gear (max mage and max range) so I can finish 99 from 89 in roughly a week.
Currently not finished
[/Spoiler]

Hunter
[Spoiler]
Hunter never interested me early on, so it sat a very low level for quite some time. At some point when total level worlds came out and I wanted fast levels I started training it at a rapid pass finishing from around 40-99 in 2 weeks. Possibly will be going for 200m hunter in the future.
Finished September 21st, 2016.

Mining
[Spoiler]
Mining always interested me, back in december 2015 when tick manipulation got very popular I remember watching Autumn Elegy's guide on Tinderbox 2S2G. I never was motivated to train it but constantly was up to date on the meta for training the skill. I am currently training mining as I write this blog doing MLM and playing my alt which I might max, but I will leave that for another time.
currently not finished.

smithing
[Spoiler]
Smithing... Smithing is by far my favorite skill in the game, I finished Smithing as my first 99 back in July of 2015. I consistantly smithed off and on to fund all my buyables to 99 selling Runite platelegs, skirts and 2h swords to the karamja store. When I had hit around 30M xp I had dreamed of going to 200M as not many people really go for them and I enjoyed it. I smithed off and on for the next year and a half finishing 200M smithing back in April 17th, 2017 as Rank 23 in the skill.
99 finished July 28th, 2015.
200M finished April 17th, 2017.

Fishing
[Spoiler]
As my account is unable to train or gain Strength XP most of my fishing came from monkfish and trout/salmon. I got 91 fishing for the Morytania Elite Diary some time last year which I did monkfish entirely for (67-91). Not long ago I decided to finish 99 off for a competition in my skilling clan getting 99 on May 16th, 2017.

Firemaking
[Spoiler]
Firemaking was pretty fun, the way i trained the skill was a method called backlighting. This uses ticks to my advantage to light logs faster than lighting and being pushed my the fire to the west.
99 Finished on december 5th, 2016.

Woodcutting
[Spoiler]
Woodcutting has changed just as much as Mining has, keeping up with mining tick manipulation methods allowed me to keep up on how woodcutting changed. I did all of 99 from 2Tick teaks in around 2 weeks.
99 Finished on November 1st, 2016.

Farming
[Spoiler]
Farming I have been training off and on since the start of the game, doing primarly only tree runs when I could afford it. I am estimated to finish in around 2 weeks from this post.
99 Finished on May 28th, 2017.
