I am just comming back from a 2 year break. The game has changed alot and I am not sure where to start or what goals to make. I appreciate any help or advice. 🙏

I posted pics of my equip, Stats, and Quest list. Please let me know if you need any other info.

get berserker ring (dagannoth rex safespotting) and thralls (kingdom divided)

#

consider the bowfa grind

@fading flare I have Bring forgot to post lol. whats the benefits of thralls? Also I have considered bowfa, i just need a good guide I tried learning last time and failed.

thanks for the help

thralls are just a flat .675? dps increase anywhere that you can be on arceuus spellbook

#

and are efficient to use basically during all combat where you can

#

some ranged levels would help with bowfa, which i would recommend catching chins and throwing for, but 80 hunter would supplement that grind a decent bit by having an extra box trap

Thank you I had to remember what a thrall was. I do have the acess to the private hunting grounds.

there are several guides about cg around, but here is one recommended by so iron bruh / parasailer that should have accurate information in terms of speeding up kills, playing cg more properly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxCcXZuwqno

dont use the hunting grounds, instead you should complete song of the elves, and then hunt red chins there north of priff, its better- or hunt black chins in the wilderness

#

ideally with 80+ hunter which is normally done passively through birdhouses while doing other activities so stay on top of those!

TYVM for all the help!

#

no worries and dont feel discouraged if this route seems gross or uninteresting to you, this is only one set of options you have available and its just a seemingly efficient way for you to get back into the thick of the game

#

if its too much all at once just take it easy and do it the way you want to

will do

I'd try and stay on top of farming, hard farming guild contracts are really strong. Get some xp by trees including hardwoods, there is a farming guide in the resourcr channel. Herblore has strong unlocks up to a very high level and requires long term planning

As others have said farming, akd, id also look into gotr for the outfit and needle, sotf for sepulchre and daeyalt, and cg

#

The video guide above is great but has a few flaws, i still recommend it though

#

This thread goes into a bit more detail

#

There's maybe a hundred older threads with similar information so make sure to look around. Welcome back 😄

I am currently in the process of finally cashing in my banked herblore xp and it's a lot of dopamine 😄

Thank you all for the feedback. I’ll let you know if I have any questions. I greatly appreciate it.

Not sure if others have mentioned but also make sure you go to Perdu and the legends quest guy for some free xp.

Is it too early for me to do raids? What is required?

fading flare
#

you could probably pull off cox and kinda low invo toa but no bowfa is the real kicker, at least you have bp

#

you could probably hang in tob too if you know what your doing but its a bit harder to learn

#

Generally toa has the lowest reqs before it's recommended, being bowfa + hasta + turture + anguish + bandos godsword

#

For ToB id at least recommend tent whip and blowpipe

#

And cox reqs are high

On the right

very nice, good luck!

btw these days id consider adding fang to the setup - its a very strong weapon and can be obtained relatively early
