You get more shadows though. It's not too far off expected time to shadow than before

#

More shadows is wrong way to word it. But a greater ratio of non lightbearer/fangs.

real yacht
#

Yeah im chilling at 400 very reclined non sweats but I think dehydro and nhn is coming soon once I get my last row down better

fossil flame
#

like matt side its not as extreme as you think but it is slower 30 extra 500s 40 extra 450s and 70 extra 400s for shadow

#

they increased wieghting purp chance in 500 might be lower then previous 400 but shadow wieghting is like 1/16 for doing that instead of previous 1/124

real yacht
fossil flame
#

there is they recently added wieghting boost for every 5 raid lvls rather then every 50

#

though I dont think post 500 gives a boost to wieghting only purple chance afaik ur better off doing 500s now instead of 530s and whatnot

#

could be wrong

umbral pasture
#

hmm, so the chart isn't doing lance before rigour anymore? that's big

#

did doom change things up that much or what

fossil flame
#

oathplate scy and is cracked

#

for chambers esp but u can get value at it in toa to

umbral pasture
#

i see

#

why not skip lance outright though

fossil flame
#

from what ive seen ppl want to leave it for vorkath cas/as a option to get so u can still raid without a scy

hollow cobalt
#

It should be removed

tacit crow
#

Only vork CA you have to wait on is the GM time. Which ironically you can BGS + scythe for. Or wait for dhcb.

robust roost
#

resetting for like 100+ bgs into scy camp is probably a fairly easy time to hit

frozen olive
#

The real tech is maul start, ~60% acc and equivalent of almost max bgs

radiant pelican
#

If you had to put pegs somewhere where'd you do it

hollow cobalt
#

torva tier (i.e the last one)

#

which really should be post-gm

radiant pelican
#

The correct answer is post treads and peg crystal 😉

polar void
radiant pelican
polar void
#

meh

radiant pelican
#

yall are right

#

no reason to rush em

polar void
#

well that was easy

radiant pelican
#

will do them passively

polar void
dusky fog
#

Adding pegs is 1 extra ranged str. Is that even worth the grind?

hollow cobalt
robust roost
#

actually im pretty sure it doesn’t give a max in like… any typical setup

frozen olive
#

It's 3 tbow maxes in tob PauseChamp

robust roost
#

i checked a few and they all came up empty

#

the +1 from pegs on treads is?

frozen olive
#

Yes

robust roost
#

huh

#

d arrows?

frozen olive
#

Yes

robust roost
#

interesting

#

it’s settled

frozen olive
robust roost
#

get rangers post tbow kekw

frozen olive
#

pretty dumb lol

tacit crow
#

We are like 1 ranged strength from a 32 amethyst BP max hit I think. So if we get anguish 2.0 and they only give +1 strength. Max treads will be pretty nice for that. But I bet they do +2 strength at least if they upgrade anguish

#

Either way may be relevant for rune darts regardless

vague tusk
#

you get 55->57 max hit with void amethyst scobo with pegged avernics, 56->58 with scobo amethyst on slayer tasks with +4 ranged str from body/legs/gloves and 58->59 with +8

radiant pelican
#

I'll just try to get them passively along the way to max instead of driving myself insane going for them all at once

robust roost
#

i think what we ended up coming to the conclusion of was

#

it’s unconditional bis for a style, so you may as well just get them

#

cause you’re probably gonna end up getting them at some point anyway

#

mediums aren’t a bad thing to do early anyway, they don’t get that much faster later into the account and early on you get a decent chunk of oak planks from the eclectics

strange nexus
#

Anyone got clip of gnomonkey talking about the chart

round pond
#

Someone linked the timestamp of the YouTube vod above

robust roost
#

@strange nexus

strange nexus
#

Thanks !

desert flume
#

brutal watch

desert flume
#

watching gnomonkey say mages book never gives a max hit is hilarious

polar void
#

Yeah that was cringe

frail sonnet
#

its true if youre completely naked and dont pray anything at all while maging smh

polar void
#

He just shat on it after a terrible analysis

strange nexus
#

Yeah soon as he said torso isnt worth getting i clicked off

#

Was hoping for atleast somewhat reasonable analysis

#

Nope

robust roost
#

lol if only there was a terrible analysis

there is no analysis, he just looks at ordering, puts 0 thought into why it might be there, calls it bad and moves on

karmic fossil
#

due to gnomonkey's analysis I can no longer use this chart for my personal progression. I am logging out until the gnochart drops

lunar lodge
#

He's really down on the fighter's torso which I don't get at all.

robust roost
#

because he's a content creator

#

therefore he thinks moons rush is meta

#

torso is not a useful pvm thing if you have blood moon chestplate of course

#

however

after you do 1 queen run for kandarin hards, which everyone will do whether you want diary cape or not, it takes about an hour with a mediocre team to finish off the torso

chilly ruin
#

theyre the same offensively and torso has slightly diff defensive stats. its not actually totally irrelevant at all if you already have both

#

but its also one of those marginal diffs

robust roost
#

no the difference is it takes 20x longer to get blood moon chestplate than torso

#

since you need to do a BA run for kandarin hards anyway, it costs 3 queen runs worth of time

lunar lodge
#

Certainly even in the worst of cases, fighter's torso must save time at moon's even if you choose to do moons.

chilly ruin
#

if ur wife levels ur accounts for you none of these timesaves matter

robust roost
#

which is, at most like 3 hours if you get the absolute worst luck with w302 teams

#

nah you'd wear tank body over torso at moons

#

assuming you have one

#

50/50

frozen olive
#

Torso has good slash def, pretty sure you do

chilly ruin
#

torso is fine, i did a few kc early for cas and it wasnt that bad

#

torso rune legs

robust roost
#

it's 35 slash def vs 4 str

#

it probably doesn't make enough of a diff with higher stats to matter, but at lower stats i think i'd rather the def

frozen olive
#

Aren't we max combat starting the gnome way

frail sonnet
#

nah gnome wants bloodmoon specifically to get 99s with it

#

which probably costs like 20m if u afk with it in NMZ for a month but whatever

frozen olive
#

How much lms does his wife do to afford that?

frail sonnet
#

forcing to wife to alch 100.000 rune arrows despair

robust roost
#

the xp/hr at crab with no prayers or pots with full blood moon...probably like

#

80-100k?

frail sonnet
#

the xp is pretty insane at sulphur naguas which he shills 24/7 but at crab/nmz yeah its prob like 100k

robust roost
#

well his argument is "you should only afk train melees"

frozen olive
#

don't forget warrior guild pots!!!

robust roost
#

i think crab is more xp than normal rumble since there's no overkill, but it's less afk, normal rumble you can afk the full 20 minutes

#

so lets say you train strenth and attack to 99 at the funny crab

#

and you have 70 smithing

#

you're spending probably ~12m on repairs for 99 strength and attack lol

frail sonnet
#

was gnome stance to never do CG at all or post rigour? I dont remember but it was definitely one of those 2

midnight dome
#

I heard him say on stream today you have to get bofa, he just thinks it's boring to watch people do cg

robust roost
#

he is an extreme atlatl shill, i know that much

nocturne ridge
#

well thats true lol. these wow players are a fresh face to the osrs streams. i like it

umbral pasture
#

doing moons for content is respectable

full panther
#

At some point it just turns into yet another grind

umbral pasture
#

trying to sell it as meta with shitty analysis not so much

full panther
#

Imo cox solo is bis content

robust roost
#

while true, calling it meta/efficient in front of people who are new and impressionable is not

full panther
#

Got some mixed thoughts on much of this

#

He is free to make any recommendation he wants

#

And its not like he is selling medication and needs to get it right, not disastrous consequences

#

Just someone realizing later on they wasted some time

#

The worse part is someone suffering through some grind they didnt like, and also realizing it was dogshit

dusky fog
#

I wouldn’t take it personally. Sounds like he did a very poor analysis, if any at all, and went based solely on gut feel

full panther
#

Im somewhere thinking the depth for what there is to discuss regarding it is shallow

#

He did an incomplete analysis, so there is just not that much to say about it

dusky fog
#

If only he understood the intended logic for the sequencing and then had counter arguments, only then would i even consider his opinion

full panther
#

He may think its done by a single nutjob, and not a communal long standing effort

#

Anyway, he ideally asks questions on why things are like they are

#

So its dissapointing he doesnt but it is what it is

lunar lodge
#

Do you think that it's mostly just selling his own guides and advice?

#

Minimize and belittle literally everything else?

full panther
#

He has some incentives to not invalidate his content sure

#

But i wouldnt alledge systematically doing it

dusky fog
#

Ignorance too. How can someone legitimately be against something without hearing the argument for it first?

full panther
#

Guy is skilled and has things to offer very indepenently of progression guides

full panther
#

Loads of shit is not all that serious

dusky fog
#

Surely he understands this chart was made by a group of sweats rather than one whack job person 😂

full panther
#

I didnt see his latest commentary tbh

lunar lodge
#

The outright massive negativity from a skilled player is what confuses me, to be honest.

full panther
#

Anyhow, itd be interesting to see what he would make

lunar lodge
#

I have deviated in many ways from the various guides and whatnot that I've seen. But I still understand that the guide's way has a very valid reason, probably more valid than any reason I had, other than I just didn't want to do it.

umbral pasture
#

dude is certainly not bad at the game but his understanding of meta seems weak

dusky fog
#

Just blind ignorance is all. He doesn’t care to think through the logic of the sequencing and since it doesn’t align with the path he feels is best, it must not be good

umbral pasture
#

which isn't weird, understanding meta is a totally different skillset from getting GM or whatever

lunar lodge
dusky fog
midnight dome
#

He's not really an ironman player at his heart

#

He made a hc for content, what he really enjoys is endgame pvm

full panther
#

Adapting playstyle for content deffo is legitimate

desert flume
#

gnomonkey is a zaxe tds do-er

umbral pasture
#

especially content creators who have functionally unlimited time to play lol

desert flume
#

he's directly incentivized to hold opinions that appeal to the most people possible. having reddit opinions on iron progression means more money for him. shame on gnomonkers

dusky fog
#

He’s better for how to do content rather than what order to prioritize gear upgrades and progression. Is what it is

midnight dome
#

He gets a new hardcore 0 time through account sharing anyways so all of this doesn't really matter

dusky fog
#

His wife is cringe in the chat. Let’s just leave it there kekw

full panther
#

Ye deffo leave it there lol

#

Again, im not feeling so confident there is much more to discuss here

#

He has incentives that dont align with ours

dusky fog
#

Na. This chat continually fights for truth and logic of gear progression and will continue to do so regardless of what one content creator thinks

#

You good ladlor 🙏🏼

robust roost
umbral pasture
#

when the efficient guide is efficient 😠

robust roost
#

"this sucks because i can't stream it to my audience"

tacit crow
#

The difference is he can't pay rent when he streams sepulchre for a month instead of rushing boss content with bad gear/stats.

drowsy ore
#

Bad stats and gear makes stream last longer = more profit. It makes sense

raven valley
# dusky fog Surely he understands this chart was made by a group of sweats rather than one w...

He's a twitch streamer, the twitch chat has some of the dumbest people, he probably thinks someone from chat made it + since the pvm progression has the same look and feel it looks like it comes from like a tierlist maker website.

I think if he had context for why the chart was made his opinion might be different.

Not a gm glazer but read this thread before the vid, and some opinions are overblown

frozen olive
#

He's gone over bruhsailer and had the same ignorance with methodology then, brushed it all aside

round knot
#

apparently bruhsailer is the worst ever, but if it told you to afk melees it would be fine

I think we're ascribing entirely different approaches and motivations to what's going on. For some reason you think that this is gnome's best efforts to understand the ladlor chart. Why would you think that? I think it's clearly not, and understanding the chart wasn't the goal in the first place.

dusky fog
#

No I precisely think the opposite. Little effort to understand the chart before making harsh remarks, hence ignorance.

hybrid blaze
#

No, you're still misreading what I'm saying. I think interacting with the chart in a good faith effort is a bad idea from his perspective, and not doing so is very wise.

#

It's not ignorance, it's a superior grasp of the situation

dusky fog
#

What you’re outlining can be described as intentional ignorance imo

desert flume
#

He’s incentivized to NOT understand the chart and explain its approach

#

Feigning ignorance or being genuinely ignorant have the same outcome

hybrid blaze
#

It's great for feeling superior but fails to gain insight in what's going on

indigo shadow
#

Let's dispel the notion that Gnomonkey doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

dusky fog
hybrid blaze
#

I really don't think we need to make it financial to explain what's going on, but that's a separate discussion entirely. I primarily wanted to say that stating that dismissing ladlor's chart is ignorant is misrepresenting the situation

dusky fog
#

I don’t see a point in arguing about this so I’m going to step away. I thought you just affirmed that it was intentional ignorance

desert flume
#

Pulled up ladlor. “Are they really doing zammy with bowfa in 2025?” - pulls up a dps sim, fumbles with random options, staring at bowfa beating it in dps with a confused face until finally landing on a cracked ranged set with scobo amethyst arrows - “yeah see scobo is much better”

#

Like why take bro serious atp

hybrid blaze
#

scobow is better than bowfa at zammy, it just isn't available early enough

desert flume
#

Yes I’m illustrating his rancid simming habits

hybrid blaze
#

I think using a dps calc is a good idea, it just doesn't stop people from misusing it

desert flume
frozen olive
#

trigger warning bro I almost crashed out

desert flume
#

The goal when I use a dps sim is to prove I’m right

dusky fog
#

He knows exactly what he’s doing in that he doesn’t want to understand the chart for his own incentivized benefit. I just don’t want that to be misconstrued with him actually understanding that the chart is good and pretending otherwise.

indigo hollow
#

I think there’s entirely too much thought going into trying to understand this tbh

#

Just ignore the rage bait

full panther
#

I've gotta ask, how has the 98 agility icon being turned into a hallowed crystal shard been received?

#

i've skimmed some discussion, and it seems that it has been confusing for some

hybrid blaze
#

I've seen a half dozen people who think that it means that sepulchre is no longer considered efficient and it's not a recommended grind. This has been very positively received.

full panther
#

oh god

round pond
#

I'd just revert it as noobragebait

quiet schooner
#

I think the short version without the skilling blocks was always better tbh

#

Then u don't have to deal with people like "why this"

mellow swift
full panther
#

to their credit that is atleast partially true

#

but not the whole picture at all

hybrid blaze
#

I think it doesn't matter that much either way. The people who care will ask and learn, the people who recoil from hearing about the long sepulchre grind were going to find alternatives. To me the change achieved two main things:

  1. The people who made fun of 98 agility now instead spread the chart, thinking the grind has been removed
  2. The people who said that doing agility is dumb now think they were right all along and consider it a victory over the chart
#

oh and it shifts the explaining to #ironman-discussion a little

full panther
#

i see

hybrid blaze
# quiet schooner Then u don't have to deal with people like "why this"

This has been a sore spot for years now tbh.
When the chart was just a few pictures it really focused on pvm progression. It was small, easy to digest, but hard to parse or understand sometimes.
When the chart got bigger it became more and more like a full guide, including a faq and skilling unlocks and other milestones.

It's very difficult to strike a balance imo

full panther
#

imo there is no clean victory, or it is very very hard to pull off

#

gotta make some form of compromise bcs of structural limitations

hybrid blaze
#

the reason BRUHsailer ends where it does is also because the game is so open after that, arguably even before some of the grinds in Ch3, that there's reduced benefit from sequencing. Most of the chart is post-BRUHsailer and tackles this more difficult question

hybrid blaze
full panther
#

for what its worth, the maintenance burden is very welcome, maintaining this is the most fun i have with the game now

hybrid blaze
#

I had a thought, but it'd be more complicated. Something like a progression tree, with links indicating which item is recommended for which grind. You could then decide to have it highlight which grinds you currently have the gear for, or highligh a branch of the tree and see what the progression is there, or even collapse entire branches to save monitor space. This shows the dependencies without information overload, and fits the fact that osrs progression is so horizontal

#

but any time there's an update, oof, so much work

full panther
#

i see

#

sounds pretty technically daunting lol

#

anyhow, it sounds like the 98 agi and sep shard representation of identical step, there is no clear winner and that either is fine

#

with tradeoffs for each that dont impact things too structurally

hybrid blaze
#

if I can be a little cynical here: people took offense with the step, not with the icon

#

changing the icon now means people fill in the blanks any way they like, often to the advantage of the chart

#

so it placates people by misinforming them. I'd argue that's a win, since they would balk at the real information

#

but it's got little to do with the actual icon

full panther
#

the sep shard step is arguably a bit dishonest, but it also addresses that the agility is sepulchre specific, not just 98 for the hell of it

#

both require some trail of thought to infer the correct thing

#

ok i see what you're saying here now

#

yeah that was 100% part of the intention

round pond
#

If there's a way, maybe show a line or something where the latest an item should be acquired

strange nexus
#

I think its much better than 98 agility as 98 agility would instantly turn off a lot of the target audience

#

And 98 agility would have people running rooftops because they dont want to put in the effort that sep requires especially learning

#

Could maybe replace it with a ring of endurance? What's the odds you get it b4 98 agility ? ( i haven't done really any sep )

#

Or the floor 5 page ?

indigo hollow
#

Idk if that’s really true. Sepulchre is widely acknowledged as a good skilling method even for people who normally don’t like skilling. I’d imagine someone who’s afraid of sepulchre would just skip the step entirely over getting 98 on rooftops

chilly ruin
#

making it ROE would just be going full circle wouldnt it

#

isnt that what it used to be

indigo hollow
#

I think people are more turned off by the idea of grinding out a non-combat skill to 98 than by sepulchre in particular

karmic fossil
#

just mark it as optional and call it a day

candid haven
strange nexus
#

Ive shown the chart to people and they literally would not take it seriously because of the 98 agility step and I try to explain you can skip it. Its just to give you an idea of the efficient routing to max gear. Id magin fire cape does this also even though it makes logical sense as early fire caves just sucks

#

Bad first impression and people won't give it a 2nd look Sadge

solar mulch
#

As a brand new player to the game I found this chart, saw the crystal, wiki'd what it comes from and just assumed it wanted me to do agility until I got bored then continue through the chart/guide thing and sprinkle it in when I have the urge to do more. Perhaps people are too literal when reading/viewing things -shrug-

broken saddle
#

I just recently started using the chart on my iron, I hit a point where i wasnt sure what i wanted my goal to be, stumbled upon the chart and its been giving me clear goals and grinds to set for myself.

I was looking for goals to set myself but im also not following the chart in the exact order, more using it as a guideline. looking at the hallowed crystal shard, if that were "98 agi" id have found it more useful as im sitting at 93 agi and have a ring of endurance because i got lucky fairly early on, so i just saw the shard as "well ive got the unique from sep so ill mark that as done" when it sounds like in reality maybe i should grind out more sep to 98agi.

Then again maybe this is not useful info i just figured id try to give more data as someone thats new to using the chart over just the last couple weeks. My reasons for using the chart may be different than others or different than its intended purpose. I just find grinds easier when i have a more curated experience to tell me "this is an efficient route so do these grinds"

robust roost
#

you could honestly just look at it as "if you need money, go do sep"

hushed ingot
#

Mostly just people are dumb and don't know how to interpret a to-do list in a non-linear fashion, so they see 98 agility and lose their minds not realising that...

  • nobody is forcing you to do 98 agility
  • nobody is forcing you to do all of any step at once, in order
robust roost
#

it gets you money, and it gets you magic xp

if you don't need any of these things right now you could just as easily do something further ahead

full panther
dusky fog
robust roost
#

it does and that's why "98 agility" was ever a step to begin with

craggy granite
#

farming contracts, access to good herb runs, etc also important but arent explicitly included

Sepulcher gets a weird inclusion that others don’t

robust roost
#

but it's not imperative, you don't have to do it all at once, if ever

#

farming contracts is implicated in the herb sack block

#

i think

craggy granite
#

Can put resurrect crops + basalt teles too if we really wanted to

robust roost
#

but you don't know that unless you know

dusky fog
#

Definitely got a lot of benefit out of Sep earlier on

normal prism
# hybrid blaze I had a thought, but it'd be more complicated. Something like a progression tree...

I have been thinking about something like this as well.
My biggest challenge using the chart is when I pick and choose what content I want to do. As someone who has little experience outside my iron, its hard to know what previous steps in the chart are relevant for which future steps, and as such its complicated to use the chart in building my own sequence.
Its ofc a very large project as you say, and my issue is subjective.

forest knot
#

ngl but i dont understand this, like the chart is there as a guide for the most efficient order to get items.

If you decide to go off book and create your own path, then what advice would you be looking for exactly? All the advice is going to boil down to "follow the chart".
If you prefer not following, it's kind of impossible to tailor advice to preferences like "i prefer getting shadow before bowfa, what do i do"

fossil flame
#

i think just knowing scope of items especially how impactful they are really helps judgement. like imo augury is very medicore and i would never tell someone to stress about having augury. I think some items can be skipped or routed diffrently(skipped) without much impact or effect on rest of guide

craggy granite
#

technically efficiency can get broken by just doing end game content much earlier because its technically possible

#

it's more like getting wdr appropriate gear before raids

full panther
#

the underlying assumption underpinning all of this is assuming that the player wants all items at some point, and to get them without compromising general account progression, i.e. no costly skips that will cost time later

#

and it is stripped away from preference, trying to lean as much on the above assumption as possible to not get into the mess of accounting for player skill, preference etc

#

oh i think i misread what was being asked mb

#

Anyhow, the chart has been updated! Dragon hunter lance is now removed rather than lingering symbolically after scythe

hollow cobalt
#

I think assuming "all items" is part of the goal is kinda nonsensical

#

certainly conflicts with removing lance/sra (which was the correct move)

full panther
#

nonsensical in being too general? as in not literally all items in the game?

burnt knot
#

why no feathers on the chart?

full panther
#

anyhow, assuming you want all items on the chart, this is the recommended order for timesave, and also not compromising max. and the criterion for including items is that they are bis, and exceed some admittedly arbitrary nicheness threshold

tacit crow
#

Would you ever include one big block of the ironman retirement home items at the end? (i.e, nightmare/corp?)

full panther
#

someone in the osrs discord recommends the chart a lot as a "neat ironman stickerbook" which i love, so with that in mind im not opposed to it. But certainly not by default

hybrid blaze
full panther
#

it'd need to be enabled

frozen olive
#

You could probably have a whole section for optional side grinds

full panther
#

a "panel" for customizing the chart is already something ive noted as wanting to explore

craggy granite
#

that would be really cool for letting people make their own versions and to suggest options/paths without going into the github and cloning

frozen olive
#

Moons after scythe Verypoggers

full panther
fossil flame
#

I personally really like that the guide doesint have filler items like nm/corp etc same reason lance was removed imo

#

or that sra isint on there anymore

full panther
#

needs to clearly distinguish between niche and non niche

tacit crow
#

Checkbox for "please include where I can efficiently do meaningless grinds" along the progression would be I guess what you want

#

Instead of lumping all the meaningless grinds at the end.

lunar lodge
#

I think the answer is "Wherever you want"

#

Because your question is inherently an oxymoron.

tacit crow
#

You still need X base amount of gear to do a specific retirement home boss.

#

So I mean you would put it after you acquire that X amount of gear.

#

Lets say a hardcore tobber wants ralos so they check button to show these grinds. For example it would pop ralos up after scythe. (Not debating where it should actually go here, but just an example)

#

Obviously adds even more upkeep, but ladlor said he's having fun with doing that.

hollow cobalt
#

I think at the point that you're grinding weird niche items because you've finished everything else you can apply your brain

tacit crow
hollow cobalt
#

colo was fun

#

tbh torva is at least as useless

tacit crow
#

Nah I kid. I could definitely see myself going for ralos after corrupting quiver.

#

Ely/full inq not so much

hollow cobalt
#

I did inq when it was... much worse than it is now

#

I will not be getting torva

frail sonnet
#

can put ralos and blessed quiver immediately after vbow grind if chart was based

low stag
#

I use the chart as my clog pretty to max gear lol

drowsy ore
#

I think the leaner the chart the better. Retirement home content isn't needed

quiet schooner
#

its already quite bloated

tacit crow
#

I think it would have to be a toggle if anything.

drowsy ore
#

What are we thinking about elder maul and dclaws on the chart?

#

Surely they are nice to have, but don’t seem needed for the next items

hybrid blaze
#

Almost all items are a net time loss if you only intend to use them at current meta locations, then ignore them. You need to value items for their own sake to justify them, for pretty much all items

#

It's kinda arbitrary where you draw the line, but I think dclaws and maul are probably good to have

radiant pelican
#

Based off the chart, what weapon do we use for arraxor grind?

chilly ruin
#

hasta

radiant pelican
#

And then dwh + VW spec?

chilly ruin
#

yeah, or b claws instead of voidwaker. i'm not sure which is better then

quiet schooner
#

i think bclaws are very good there

Is there any world where Nex is pushe dup higher due to tbow spoon? Just wanna make sure I shouldnt be looking that way for bracers + chance at zcb

tacit crow

If you have plans to go for GM can honestly delay nex until after GM

Just going for bracers for tbow isn't too bad of an idea though.

I did a decent amount of acb/vw/fang/masori/pipe duos pre changes and it was fine, its not exactly fun but nex isn't super fun in general imo
Post changes should be a lot more lenient

hmm guess ill have to figure that out. I would not bring acb with tbow I assume?

frozen olive

acb is better on nex if you have max -vambs

if you do get vambs it just barely beats it with d arrow

even if never doing gm i wouldn’t touch nex until you have pre-nex max, nothing it drops is going to come close to saving time anywhere vs what you save with bis at nex

About to start my hydra grind for the gloves per the chart, why did the dhl get moved to later in the list? Is it not good for cox grind?

hybrid blaze
#

its good but people are assuming scythe for cox now

#

fwiw I think this is at least somewhat controversial, demanding an ultrarare at that stage

neat sun
#

Cox before dex and arcane to be specific, at the ferocious gloves mark

full panther
#

assuming one is willing to grind out the scythe, getting the lanc does not save time for rigour/augury

#

but if you know you wont, or have serious doubts about commiting to the long tob grind, then its likely still worth your time

neat sun
#

Nice, is that same rationale for nox hally?

full panther
#

the rationale around nox hally is that tent whip is sufficient for slash wep

#

i dont remember if the consensus of tent whip is fuzzy or not. going for a nox hally rather than an abyssal tentacle seems appropriate tbh

neat sun
#

Would it be fair to say that nox hally is more efficient to go for because it’s at a boss you’re already grinding. Like if get the fang at 400 kc, you probably only need 1-2 more pieces of the hally for a better slash weapon then grinding 1/400 drop just for the tentacle? Couldn’t this same thing apply to hydra too?

hybrid blaze
#

no because hydra drop is a single piece

#

either you get lance before feros and there's nothing to consider, or you don't get it and you have the full grind ahead of you

neat sun
#

What about for the hally then? Aren’t cave krakens dead content now? No reason to go for a 1/1200 drop when you can just get a better weapon from a boss you’re already grinding

hybrid blaze
#

I don't know

chilly ruin
#

kraken cas are easy and worth completing but i think its reasonable to block completely after

fossil flame
#

halberd has some nice uses can speed up ur vard grind and give u a boost at tob and has some extra niche uses

#

though i think most ppl would reccomend getting tent just because p2 verzik with hally is a bit awkward

midnight dome

I honestly think you'll run out of tents most of the time

chilly ruin

can just use reg whip

#

its really not that bad

midnight dome
#

I guess yea

fossil flame

ye but hally actually is better dps i thnk on p3 verzik and p2 even against tent whip

#

seems like itd be worth detour imo its like 330ish kills to get full halberd on avg

indigo hollow
#

Where are you getting that number?

#

You have to get 3 1/200 drops

midnight dome

probably 330 more than fang? idk

Q.E.D.

stoic chasm
#

You can abuse LLMs into saying you're right

#

Sometimes you don't even need to abuse them yourself, the sources they're using have done it for them

fossil flame
#

idk i definitely agree with u guys i thought drawing 1 card at 1/600 is equal to drawing 3 cards with 1/200 rate but tbh i dont understand probaility like that

umbral pasture
#

in terms of the average rate it is equal

mellow swift
umbral pasture
#

hally just has less deviation

mellow swift
#

The TTk difference is close enough that if you miss a hit or so, it's no longer worth it

indigo hollow
#

My guess would be that ChatGPT misinterpreted it as a coupon collector situation

umbral pasture
#

yeah it probably thought you were rolling for all 3 pieces on each kill

umbral pasture
#

or something else idk, chatGPT doesn't actually do math

hollow cobalt
#

it would be (1+1/2+1/3)*200=367

indigo hollow
#

It’s not 330 but I don’t think they were recalling the exact number

umbral pasture
#

it's just a very elaborate text prediction algorithm

fossil flame
#

this was logic it was giving me

hollow cobalt
#

this is nonsense

#

or at least unrelated to the situation

fossil flame
#

ye think i wasnt expressing my question properly

indigo hollow
fossil flame
#

i rephrased things but ye its saying its same now

hollow cobalt
#

because it's not "pull 3 cards with 1/200 each"

#

which is 367 kc

umbral pasture
#

idk what it means by "gives more chances"

#

well again it doesn't mean anything

hollow cobalt
#

only one of the 1/200 is in play at a time

hollow cobalt
#

and that took a lot of trial and error

indigo hollow
#

I’ve had decent success using them for coding, but I find that it’s heavily dependent on what model you’re using, what language you’re writing in, and how you’re prompting it

#

And how unusual of a request you’re making

#

In all cases I have to double check its output though

full panther
#

is it expected kc for nox hally being computed?

hollow cobalt
#

we know that's 600, we're just shitting on chatgpt now

full panther
#

kk

fossil flame
#

ye

full panther
#

for amulet + nally it is not 600 also

#

just fyi

umbral pasture
#

right for both combined you're getting mildly coupon collectored

full panther

its mostly my fault though i feel i had original intuition but didint know how to express it because I dont truly understand it

Yeah regular coupon collector can be done analytically, but this mix is kinda jank

frozen olive

Interestingly Claude got that one in one shot too

But that’s one where I would have wanted to verify it because I don’t know enough about Markov chains to judge it on its face

yeah that's the problem for me. If you use it for something you know about you can double check it. When you don't know much.... who knows

If I have a block list set up at wildy slayer for the bosses is it worth turael skipping and doing them on task til 1 is left?

lunar lodge
#

I would say not.

south fern
# real yacht If I have a block list set up at wildy slayer for the bosses is it worth turael ...

Unlike other slayer masters, Krystilia's tasks have a separate counter from the normal slayer masters, thus players must complete five tasks from her to begin their Wilderness point streak. Despite using two different counters, players cannot have both a normal and Wilderness slayer task at the same time. However, if the player is given a task they do not want and cannot skip it, they can go to Turael to remove it (provided that he cannot assign it), though this will remove the Wilderness task streak and require players to complete another five tasks from her to start gaining points again.

#

Krystilla has a completely separate task count, so definitely not worth

forest knot

before the recent changes it was better to do wildy straight up but now idk

Was that intended??

(before the changes)

it was always like that if thats what youre asking

you're constantly resetting your wildy task streak, but you're not resetting your regular task streak, you're just pumping out turael tasks as far as your regular streak is concerned, so yeah, seems intended

also maybe kephri bugs?

I think the only area it doesn’t clearly beat bowfa is shadows but I think it’s still competitive there

frail sonnet

whats the point bfing tho if u have 2 styles that are basically equal DPS meaning it doesnt matter what akkha prays

#

also means u can BP shadows which is a full DPS higher than bowfa

indigo hollow
#

They’re not basically equal dps if you have good mage gear

#

Keep in mind you can also ayak spec akkha and it stays drained

Yeah eye is a good amount better

not taking damage. not losing ticks when it switches on you are non-zero benefits

but pipe is also very good on shadows

Yep

Only can drain by 10 tbf

bowfa still king on the shadows though, right?

indigo hollow

Depends on gear but it’s usually better

I wouldn’t call it king though, since bp is better

only with ddarts right, or rune is enough?

And you can mix/match. You may have one kill at zulrah where you are 80 HP at the end. You can just send another kill for that. And another where you are 20 hp and 5 prayer. You get a lot of value to DA4 and tele back instead of eating half your inventory of food.

It's not 'demanding' it's simply pointing out the optimal path, and it doesn't appear to be incorrect. One can easily do olm with even just fang and have no issue, but if you plan to get scythe I see exactly why it's there

The chart is get bis in slot in the minumum amount of time. Not get upgrades in order. Say dragon hunter wand is 10% mage, compared to the 5% one on the chart, but completely skipped

the whole point was to include things which are efficient to get. if it's not "worth", keeping it on there is nonsense

I haven't checked tread max hits for blowpipe, but I don't even think quiver makes a difference for blowpipe in tob unless you are using dragon darts. So could technically put scythe before quiver too.

But it's so quick to get idk if I could justify doing an entire scythe grind with an Ava's lol.

hollow cobalt
#

Same goes for ultor really

tacit crow

True but at least ultor/scythe have a back and forth argument where they both benefit each other.

Although I doubt the 1 max hit speeds up tob much. Might be comparable to the amount of time scythe speeds up ultor.

You may be able to do sepulchre and spend the go on mahogany homes and still come out ahead vs. Wildy agility

#

Idk if you have enough gp from sep to do cape racks

frozen olive
#

Or just wait at 83 until gp is banked from other pvm

tacit crow
#

Yeah that's the much better option of course

#

Just trying to show how much worse wildy agility is

full panther
#

I'm once again rewriting the codebase to make implementing new features easier, one of these is the ability to hide steps (and bring them back with a show all button).

This begs the question about if the barebones variant needs to still exist, and i defer to you guys a bit, since ~16% of traffic goes to that variant. Anyone here who prefers to use the barebones , that would rather it keeps existing even if this hide feature is implemented? Do let me know.

north acorn
#

tbh i'd have nuked it a long time ago to avoid confusion

chilly cove
#

bring back light mode 🙏

quiet schooner
#

I think the barebones version is better than the regular

midnight dome
woven nova
#

it’s like 801 xp per lap assuming u turn in 101 tickets at once, u have to do like 15k to get from 70-99

#

that being said you have to spend 150k per entry and not all loot is past lap 61 since you won’t stay there in one session, and doesn’t account for nature rune prices

#

subtract 10k nature runes price from this at a minimum unless u alr have them

#

also you get like 65k an hour (unrealistic prob closer to 60k) at wildy agility where u get like 95k at floor 5 of sep

hybrid blaze
#

If you do a slow but profitable method to a high xp goal, the loot will always be very impressive. it's good to keep in mind how many hours it'd take

woven nova
#

for sure, you’re also missing out on a lot of bonus xp from multiskilling

#

for most players they don’t like agility so spending 2x as long training it won’t be great anyways, and its less macro efficient

#

unless you’re completing like 300+ lap streaks i can’t see it being ok

#

any banking kills ur loot/xp so quick

#

(or deaths)

midnight dome
#

Yeah I guess it does add up but spending an extra 100 hours or whatever sounds awful

#

I didn't think it was that much but makes sense

south fern
#

Doing a few hours early instead of staves imo is great, in a few hours you'll also get enough blighted supplies for all wildy needs. Doing more though yeah you're wasting time.

#

tops like 5 hours if even

woven nova
#

For example if ur doing 200 laps and then banking you make 3.5m every 200 laps

subtract 150k for entry cost then you’re at 3.35m

subtract 40k for nature rune prices and then you’re 3.31m

takes 2.5 hours to do 200 laps so you’re only making 1.3m an hour at 64k agility xp an hour

#

200 laps every time without dying or having to bank or whatever cuz ur running masses with randoms is just so optimistic and its not even good effective gp/hr it seems

midnight dome
#

Everytime I've seen people talk about these mass cc's it seem like they might be running for a couple hours here and there and that's it. Not sure if they are constantly going nowadays. And as soon as there are enough people risking loot there'll be pkers to cull the numbers

#

Maybe it changed though

frozen olive
#

they definitely aren't constant, usually its a weekend thing

woven nova
#

they would prob run for a full 200 laps of time if ur there at the start

#

def not a 24/7 thing

#

U should see the agility fc discord tho its just crybabies 24/7

#

Last time i checked atleast

midnight dome
#

What are they crying about

woven nova
#

Ppl who protect end up ragging and shit idk

midnight dome
#

L0l

woven nova
#

Made up drama cuz they run out of things to do on rs

midnight dome
#

I mean why would someone be there protecting if they could make more money ragging

woven nova
#

The people who are in the wilderness 24/7 are good samaritans

hybrid blaze
hybrid blaze
#

Fwiw I think there are plenty of arguments against doing a lot of wildy agility even without considering pkers or raggers. In the presence of those it only gets worse, obviously

south fern
#

Not consistent no. But agility fc on weekends usually runs for like proper periods of time say like 10+ hours. And real pk'ers are a very rare sight, sure there's always risk though

Crafting+mage xp

#

I agree on it being a better substitute for blackjacking, I knew from the start I was going to skip that, while I did some bstaves

loud jasper
#

Can't you do wildly agility and with all the time saved blow some glass?

#

And get better rates for both

south fern
#

Technically yeah, but glass is kind of locked behind 77 mage and 78 farming

#

Sure you can do charter ships, but then you are cutting in deeply into the xp

#

Also shopscape is pain

loud jasper
#

Making the molten glass yourself does make XP rates worse but you are able to farm giant seaweed before 78 farming. I don't really know how much experience you get from making battlestaves, it would have to be not much worse XP/hour to make it better than blowing glass +wildy agility

south fern
#

The actual making of bstaves is great xp definitely above glass, the 2 minutes of afk charging orbs is not great mage xp, but is afk

hybrid blaze
loud jasper
#

Gold and crafting XP is what I meant

hybrid blaze
#

Yes, as do I

#

if you combine all the xp and gp, doing bstaves is faster than wildy agil to the same goals

south fern
#

Wildy agility is not a bad method, especially if you don't intend on doing low level sepulchre. It's just not something you want to camp for long

hybrid blaze
#

I dont think there's much interaction between wildy agility and sepulchre in particular

#

I agree with the rest of your statement though

south fern
#

Oh right barblore covers early agility

hybrid blaze
#

yeah this is a large contributing factor why wildy agility isn't great. At level 52 (or w/e) the xp rate looks good, but since you can 'skip' early agility through barb fishing it's more honest to compare it with f3 or better at sep

craggy granite
#

I am doing what I can to skip f3 as much as I can 🤣

hollow cobalt
#

Still looks ok compared to floor 3 right?

hybrid blaze
#

its reasonable but afaik not efficient

#

this was said like four times upthread already. Wildy agility isn't the worst, but also not the best. If you only do it for a few hours it's w/e either way, just think twice before making it a really long grind

forest knot
#

too late, ive already grinded out 94 agility at wildy

loud jasper
#

Is making earth battllestaves just your highest crafting XP/hour method until superglassmake? Or is it slightly worse than some other method plus you get gp

south fern
#

If you get orbs 0 time it's better

loud jasper
#

How much worse is it than making glass in a furnace using giant seaweed?

#

Making the orbs

woven nova
#

U should get 61 crafting with battlestaves then unlock superglassmake yeah

#

(61 craft and 77 mage)

#

Quite worse making ur own orbs

south fern
#

Making orbs is a lot of steps and magic xp which is very useful. Crafting xp is shit if you look at all the steps, but early mage xp is something you really want

#

Macroefficient, not better in a vacuum in other words

hybrid blaze
hybrid blaze
#

you can multiskill a lot of the crafting and alching steps so the comparison relies on quite a lot of assumptions

fossil flame
frozen olive
#

its good early, the discussion was about doing it to 99

#

and it's not particularly easy to track rates since there's variance in interruptions

#

and how long you run for

hybrid blaze
#

to the contrary, the main reason it's beloved is because people don't track the rates

north acorn
#

as someone who has not done any cox nor tob and is approaching 95 slayer, would you guys recommend me going for scythe before dhl regardless?

#

I’ve also got lucky with a heart drop last week so not sure if that shuffles around the shadow

frozen olive
#

You still want gloves, re-evaluate after that

dusky fog
frozen olive
#

I still think DHL is fine, it's not gonna be better than just going and getting scythe, but it's an easy boss

hollow cobalt

Don't think it changes anything

dusky fog

Can just do post scythe

#

Prayer isn't a concern in tob

dusky fog
#

I’m still undecided on skipping Lance or not

#

Don’t ferocious gloves come from hydra?

frozen olive
#

Yes

dusky fog
#

So you’re kinda there either way up to some point

frozen olive
#

Eventually yes, that's why I say reevaluate after you get gloves if you wanna stay

dusky fog

#

Some ppl find Hydra miserably boring

dusky fog
#

I’ve never killed it

Is it compare to any other bosses?

frozen olive
dusky fog
#

I don’t want to go out of my way to max early but also not trying to wait till after all 3 megas for example

I'm blanking on what I'd compare it to lol, you lure it to specific tiles and dodge mechanics

hollow cobalt

#

Yup lol

dusky fog
#

I guess i just don’t want to postpone maxing till like well after most pvm grinds are done. Looking for a happy medium

You aren't like hard griefing if you do it

did my update make this inaccessible in america???

hollow cobalt

because during the "grabbing from wiki" part of the pipelines, it tags it as an item

even if the step represents skilling

It is fine for me

north acorn

should've added a redirect, otherwise works fine for me

hmmm

full panther
#

while addressing the above (since it could affect significant amount of users), i am temporarily reverting a bit

#

so if the chart memory behaves a bit weird now in the meantime, thats why

hollow cobalt
#

Can "Show hidden items" be a toggle as opposed to just unhiding them permanently?

full panther
#

below the chart there should appear a "show hidden items" button

hollow cobalt
#

yes

#

it unhides them permanently

full panther
#

oh mb i misread

#

ill add it to the backlog yea

desert flume
#

does the % help a lot with freezing or something

hollow cobalt
#

yes

desert flume
#

do you still need augury w sotd

hollow cobalt
#

also literally any time you ever cast the barrage spell really

#

the % is for more damage

#

it does not increase accuracy

desert flume
#

so sotd doesn’t change mage bonus threshold for freezing cabs

#

just dmg

hollow cobalt
#

yes

#

but doing more damage is very good

desert flume
#

cool beans ☝️

tacit crow
#

I mean toxic staff of the dead does have +5 more accuracy than Sceptre.

#

But getting 100% is pretty easy now with treads. Id imagine it's not tough to get there even with base sotd being less accurate than Sceptre.

hollow cobalt
#

true but it's competing with purging staff, not sceptre

tacit crow
#

Fair point. Purging has insane accuracy too.

Ladlorchart.com has been updated!

  • Steps can be hidden by right click.
  • Added an optional retirement home category, intended for items not included in standard progression, but still desirable for some, primarily servicing the "stickerbook" aspect of the chart. Let me know what more items you want to see here.
  • Bare bones is now a toggle. Access the config menu to enable/disable barebones, as well as the retirement home category.
  • Implemented options for hiding level, construction, and slayer reward unlock based milestones.
  • The skip feature is removed, as it is considered redundant with the hiding feature.

Unfortunately the near total rewrite of the source code has made the chart memory not fully persist. I've mitigated some of it, but not all, so expect some losses.

Old urls should hopefully resolve correctly still, let me know if anything still breaks.

#

should add pegasian boots to the retirement home

#

and items for GM CA's would be good too

tiny tundra
#

it might be out of the scope of the chart but clue items like bryo staff/bandos boots i think could be included on retirement home

hollow cobalt
#

At that point we might as well include the full clog

vague tusk
#

trajectory to full clog feels like a lot less arbitrary of a goal than trajectory to "mostly BIS but not the BIS from nex/pnm/medium clues" tbh

loud jasper
#

all the significant bis is on the chart and all the irrelevant bis is at the bottom, thats not that arbitrary

quiet schooner
#

Do pegs add a max anywhere

frozen olive
#

yes

hollow cobalt
#

pegs are at least as relevant as torva is in the current game

frozen olive
#

its +3 max tbow at tob

#

unless you run venator ring ig

loud jasper

I guess maybe arcane spirit shield is sort of significant, its more like the stuff on top lets you get all the stuff there as fast as possible

arcane spirit shield is gonna get replaced by the elidinis' ward (f) soonish

yeah I haven't updated it since this initial post

forest knot
#

ty gray

rustic granite
#

a lot of the timing on things is relative to everything else that you do

#

you want medium clue rewards earlier in this guide than a PVMer would because you want some of the rewards for solving passive hards/elites/masters

#

there's no reason to be doing mediums before Cerb normally, arguably not even before Doom

hollow cobalt
#

You get a Nonzero passive amount

#

Been doing those from bwans/amethyst/dags/etc

rustic granite
#

yeah doing passive mediums is basically always worth it

robust roost
#

would you justifably do blue moon instead of blood bark based on it being a clue req

forest knot
#

no, even assuming you value the clue step you just go get it later when you have significantly better gear

robust roost
#

does it actually take that much longer to get than bloodbark?

#

plus the time you’d already spend at moons doing the CAs

chilly ruin
#

yeah it does. bloodbark you can get in an afternoon, a full moons set is longer, but i assume it makes sense not to 1 boss target farm then so effectively going for close to greenlog

fossil flame
#

I feel like if you are caring about clues then you are caring about clogs. if thats the case you can justify like anything like getting lance

robust roost
#

i guess the better wording then would’ve been “if you want blue moon for the master step, should you get it instead of bloodbark”

chilly ruin
#

no calcs to hand but that that point in ladlor chart your best weapons are still like, dscim arkan blade, so i think if you want to slot it in you should probably delay til post hasta, at which point you are doing at least some barraging still in mystics

vague tusk
#

tbf I feel like if you're a clog chaser you'd grab bloodbark(+zealot's) at around the time you do in bruhsailer anyway - blue moon would be an "in addition", not an "instead"
