Post subject:  13 Skills in 13 Weeks

So, I managed to complete my goal of getting 1 skill to 99 each week since the start of the year and maxed my account last week. 13 skills done in 13 weeks. It was a fun challenge for myself, however, the problem with doing this, is that I am now a little lost in the game. I was really hoping Jagex would release true 120 levels for the skills, but at this stage, it does not seem likely in the near future. I still have 120 dungeoneering to go for, but I don't like just constantly training 1 skill. Guess I should have thought about that before I maxed, lol. Anyway, I am now looking at different things to in the game and for the first time, I looked at what is required for the completionist cape. I was surprised at just how much more there is still to do for me in the game. A lot of it is still a grind, such as unlocking all the spells in Livid Farming ( and that is one area that could do with some updating... i didn't realise, but the distractions they offer there do NOT give you any produce points; i don't understand what the reasoning behind that is, as all other distractions give you bonuses in the relevant area.). I still have a few of the achievement diaries to complete, which i am hoping to do over the next few months. I need to kill Jad, then I have to complete the fight kiln. I need to complete the dominion tower and finish temple trekking. Then there is getting the champions tackle box in fish flingers. Plus i STILL haven't gotten an abyssal orb or wand drop in over 3,500 kills at the abby demons...

Hmmm, did I think I was a little lost and feeling flat about finishing all those 99's? There is still so much more to do in this game; I guess that is what keeps me logging in and enjoying it every day. To everyone grinding away at the different skills, rushing toward that 99, remember to take a break and look around the game... there is so much to do to break up the monotony; don't burn out on one skill alone. Sit back, ENJOY yourself and have fun; after all, it is a game and isn't that what it was designed for?

Good luck to you all, may you all reach your goals, and thanks for listening to my ramblings

For me, collecting 99's was my primary goal but once I maxed I was a little lost in what to focus on. I can see why some players drop out after reaching big milestones. It leaves a huge void I wasn't expecting. Like you I still have a lot to do before Completionist and I'm not sure how interested I am in doing that. I've finally settled into focusing on a few skills/goals I enjoy but it isn't the grind it used to be when going for a cape and I don't feel pressured to nolife anything. I'm actually enjoying the game more now that I've given myself permission to drop focus on one thing to try something else for a while.
