Gratz ish, tried to stake my way to a decent bank yesterday. Lolbad

It's incredibly hypocritical for me to say this, but I really think that Staking should be seen more as a thing to do with excess money, when you might need shit, but it's far away.

IE: I wanted Virtus, I had Virtus Top/Arcane. Took some extra cash out, got near-cleaned, twice, but eventually got my shit. Used that money, raised more money, went back, made more money. Obviously, I've dipped into 'crucial' GP in the past, dozens of times, but as I say, not as I do. Really, you should get the gear that you need to make money, and then use the money you make, after you have supplies to go get more money, for staking. It shouldn't be a, 'I'm going all in. If I get fucked, I quit.', because that shit doesn't work.

Again, hypocritical, as I've done that shit a few times. But what I just did, those last two stakes, fall completely in line with my earlier preach. I wanted to stockpile some Armadyl Runes for doing Mithril Dragons, and now, once they buy, I'll have 35K Armadyl Runes & I've got like 40M Cash leftover. Shits not bad.


Get the gear that you need to profit. (In my case, Virtus, Arcane, Staffadyl, ETC) Profit with that gear. Use the profit to try and stake for long-term item goals, IMO. Get you some Bandos for Bandos, and stake for Nex Gear. Secure Nex gear, start nexing, stake splits, go for Nex armor, etc. Work your way up 'n shit.



And I need fucktons more runes. Something like 1300 runes an hour for Miths, 1.25 hours per effigy, do math etc. Hoping to get a dent @ Agility there, once I find mass videos to watch. Basically, whenever I'm not at Glakkers or TDs.

Or you could be like me and not have the balls to stake. ha

Should keep it like that. I thought I wouldn't get sucked into it, and I'd be able to walk away with even a 10M loss, but NOP, if I lose, I'm fucking, winning back triple or going broke. Just depends on how your brian works.

Ya what i used to do before i bought myself turmoil. Got 70m turned that into like 2xx from arma/bandos and like 40m from staking (once i had good gear). If i ever get a high level acc to play on again what u said would be my goals. Want to start learning to nex and just nex for cash as i hate bandos. Arma is nice but gets boring quick

Nex will be fun for a while. Definitely enjoy Nex a fuckload more than Bandos/Arma.

Well, shit. Decided to try SoA @ Armadyl, and uh, decent results.

Guess it's just my $$$ day.


Heading back soon etc.

E: ~98M today now
