Day #9: 87 Base Combat Grind, Checked!

Finishing Level 87 Defense with More Lesser Demons
Today, we start by doing somewhere around 390 Lesser Demon kills. I am already thinking what I should do next. I decided that it was better to level each combat skill one by one (instead of just one of them all the way). While I am farming some rune med helms here with the demons, and making some gp, I was thinking what to spend them on. Maybe on something that will help increase another skill — like buying death runes so I can level up my Magic next time.

Also, I was thinking I would love to stack something like 100 clue scrolls and begin hunting them and hopefully get some unique rewards. So, I think I will either go to the Mining Guild and mine gold, adamant, and coal; or, I could also go fishing (either lobsters or swordfish). I will think about it, but for now, let’s get that sweet 87 Defense!



Money-Making Session to Celebrate the Base 87 Combat
First, I’ll make as many Amulets of Strength as I can, and then I’ll move on to making Adamant bars, which I’ll later turn into armour. Then, sell everything and see how much profit I can get!

I like these long pauses after doing lots of combat — they help me reflect and plan my next moves. I can use this grind to fuel some future goals.

By the way… I really like how I look now! I went to Thessalia’s shop in Varrock for a free new outfit, and it really makes me feel fresh again. What do you think?



OK, today I’ll wrap it up with this huge crafting and smelting business I’ll get into. I’ll let you know what’s next for Donguri15. Stay tuned!

🐦 Bird Fact of the Day

Plumage matters! In many bird species, vibrant and well-maintained feathers play a key role in mate selection — they can signal health, strength, and good genes. For example, male peacocks with fuller, more colorful tails are more likely to attract a partner!

🏆 Today’s Achievements

  • ✅ Reached Level 87 Defense — now all combat stats are base 87!🗡️

  • ✅ Began post-combat prep: making Amulets of Strength & Adamant armour for GP

  • ✅ Brand-new fashion style unlocked at Thessalia’s!

💬 See You Later, Adventurers!

That’s all for today — Donguri15 is off to smelt some bars, count her rune helms, and plan her next journey.

Until tomorrow,
"May your ores be pure, your drops be rare, and your path well lit by candlelight!"

Had been craving F2P so much!

 Monday 19 January, 2026 Hello everyone. I feel like I haven't played during long sessions in a while. Today I am finally starting fresh as a free-to-play user, and after looking and staring for some seconds at my skill levels, I realized I am in the mood for grinding one of, if not the most, boring skills for me: woodcutting.  Nevertheless, I still find lots of joy while I accumulate four clue scrolls at the time, and actually, with the latest change for making fire, I find this activity sort of comforting, while being AFK.  I have to say that having just now a new level also contributed to the motivation.  Also, I noticed I've got 32 reward caskets, which happens to be my current age. So, at the end of this session, I will open them and hope for something exciting or valuable :)  Hi again, today is the next day, meaning Tuesday, 20 January 2026. I have been playing during nice, productive sessions, and I am now giving myself some reward for the hard work. Now,...

First ever post - where my player is currently :)

 Thursday, 3rd of July - 2025. Hello there! I finally decided to start blogging (for the first time) and share my experiences while playing Old School Runescape (OSRS) in Free to play (F2P) mode, with my account 'Donguri15'.  I love Runescape, and I love birds. Welcome to my blog: The Feathered Grind.  :)  Today, I've been working on leveling up one level of runecrafting. This might be the most tedious skill to work on, at least for me. It can become a bit slow, so I decided to mix it up with something that gives me some motivation. That is gold ore. That's right, I am currently 70 on runecrafting, and in the desert of Al Kharid, I am converting 5,000 rune essences into fire runes. So these two gold ores are the ones that I go for after making some fire runes. For whenever there is somebody else mining them, I just go for the iron ores next to them, and wait until the gold appears available again.  You see that 70 in runecrafting? Yes, yes, that is the one I'm g...

Rooftopping until 80 in Pollnivneach

 Tuesday 6 January, 2026 9:30. Good morning, everyone! Today I've decided to work hard and get the level 80 in Agility. Earlier, I thought it would be enough until level 70 to enter the Taverley Dungeon and fight Black Demons, but no. So, since I still have five more days to use my membership bond, I think I can manage it, so today I'll be locked in the town of Pollnivneach, which is near Al Kharid, and is also located within the desert.  Alright everyone, I have just reached level 73 agility and i think I'll leave it for today in this post. I had a big gap without playing today since I had a migraine and also internet was off. Maybe I'll still grind a bit today but for sure reaching level 80 will at least take me two more days I feel. Still, I don't hate at all this skill and I am actually enjoying it :) take care and see you next time!
