Hiya, currently following Chapter 1 of the BruhSailer guide and am on Step 35 prepping for MTA. After reading a few discussions, I've decided to skip the grind for the master wand, but will still go for BtP, infinity boots and the runes for future quests. I'm currently 23 Magic level, what would be the room(s) I do for the points? Also open to grinding a bit more XP beforehand if it makes it easier and to compensate for missing the master wand farming xp.

Thanks

Can do telekinetic room from 33

#

And bones to bananas from 15

#

So I guess graveyard and telekinetic rooms are you starters

OK, so just skip the low alch? Thanks

IIRC the new version of Chapter 1 skips wand too

(it's linked at the top of old Chapter 1)

I think I'm using the updated one (20230116Chapter1), not sure where the extra points are going I just assumed it was for master wand. The step lists 331 Graveyard points, 331 tele points, 165 enchantment points and 431 alch points. Sorry if its obvious what I'm missing, this is my first iron so not sure what people usually get. Amazing guide BTW, really appreciate the work and ongoing update/support!

the step in the guide (in case my comprehension is wrong):

Collect 331 Graveyard points. Go to the bank, grab 1300 nature runes, 700 law runes, 60 cosmic runes, a staff of air, a staff of fire and optionally 5-10 wizard mind bombs. Using low alchemy collect alchemist points until level 33 magic (only alch the 30gp items, even if others are free), then collect 331 telekinetic points. Collect 165 enchantment points (lvl-3 enchant in the corner, just drop the shapes after). After that return to the alchemist room and collect alchemist points (only alch 30gp items, even if others are free) until you have 431 points total, swapping over to high alchemy at level 55. Optionally use the wizard mind bombs at levels 52-54 to gain access to high alchemy earlier. Buy a mud rune and 10 mist runes. Runes lost at MTA: 1650 nats, 599 laws, 50 cosmics, 492 waters. Runes gained at MTA: 66 earths/deaths/bloods

Yea it's not for master wand
You just need to buy B2P basically
I think we also suggest buying boots for accuracy while barraging
I mean it barely matters but early magic is aids and boots are fast whereas wand is not fast
B2P + boots should cost 330 grave, 330 tele, 3200 ench, 420 alch
We get 1 extra point in grave, tele, and alch and 15 extra in ench to buy 1 mud rune (which costs 1, 1, 15, 1)
We only partially complete ench because we need to get a higher magic level to use a higher ench
So we'll come back at a later step once we have that and finish ench + cash in everything
There should be a step later for 3050 ench points somewhere

Ahhh, OK I see where I got confused. Thanks for clarifying

almost but not quite, those two items cost 320, 320, 3200, 420(?) and then we buy 1 mud and 10 mist runes for quests (eyes of glough and swan song respectively)

#

but yeah current version doesnt have master wand

#

you could try to ignore the boots as well but honestly with shadow in the game it's a good item to have, it also has a bunch of uses along the way and you'd have to find a new way to train magic if you don't go for it

Btw I couldn't find that step later where we get the remaining ench points 🤔

Hey fellas, couple months later but just reached this stage on the guide.
My issue currently is that you lose hp sooo fast in graveyard that you can only stay in there for like 2 minutes tops before you're basically 2hp. Are we supposed to run to the bank, chug food and go back?

Currently I'm doing Graveyard until I'm low hp, then I do telekenesis/alchemy until my health is back up again. But I'm also running low on Run Energy while doing Telekenesis cause no graceful or stams.

Is there a particular "efficient" way to do this section?

you're supposed to eat the bananas/peaches as you make them
bananas are annoying since you have to eat so much but they are sustainable
you can also bring in a few food, drop them so you have 20 spaces available and pick up as needed
