Good stuff, it's easy to catch the darkwizards bug, simple to set up camp and very rewarding. Also nice work bringing up all the other skills, seeing almost everything at 70+ is really easy on the eyes haha.
Grats on the drop rng and keep up the grind!

It has been quite a while since my last post. I made really good friends with Lowe. I hung out in his shop for several days and was able to purchase enough ammo for 99 ranged!
Method: Count Draynor. If you attack the count when he has full HP with garlic in your inventory (with melee) it will reduce his defense from 60 to 20, this makes hitting him a lot easier (credit to my more tech savvy friend Alder for looking at the code

)
Its very afk and was really not too bad for 99 ranged, especially with the 4x XP

I had one small hiccup towards the end of my journey, though. I DCed while I was weakening Count Draynor, since he never dies this put me in an endless loop of fighting him to the death. I logged into my alt and watched the entire battle (around 20 minutes). Seems like items only last on the ground for around 1 minute, so I was unable to get back in time. Thankfully, I was only around 400k away at this time and only lost around 8k bolts and a power amulet.

Huge congrats on the first ever 99 Ranged!! Glad I was online for it
. Experience for damage rather than kills makes this actually viable as a method, and it's stuff like this that I love theorycrafting around in RSC. It really stinks that you DCed with only 400k xp to go, but on the bright side at least you kept the rune and only lost a few thousand bolts instead of tens of thousands. We can canonically consider this to be Draynor's final moment of revenge after being poked 130,000+ times lol

Congrats on 99 ranged, that's incredible!
I really like the training method, that's probably going to be the next thing I do for a little while after I finish up fishing just to take a little break from clicking over a million times quite literally. Thanks for sharing what you did. It's too bad about disconnecting but I think it might be safe to say it's a small price to pay for a huge achievement.
Best of luck on your next endeavor.
