surely eastern lands this decade
That's the other side of the world hoofers
body horror vampyre human slavery blood farm ghettos wasn't dark enough
There do be dragontooth island off the coast
south is a border!
dock there, save 10 ectotokens 
or more likely a trip to the ecto because you cleared out your tokens last time u cleaned the bank
didnt pay for perm access 
forestry part XIV!
Lot of stuff we knew about but the contents were still great
was expecting a lil more but whatever
League and a Raid in the same year do be
oh
yama inc

oh no that's just jad
cool plush
yeah i just mean like maybe some filler content idk
ironmen thinking theyre gonna use bis arrows
delaying doom till summer
i mean you just have to chop some trees
insane ranged powercreep
blog says just afk wc for them no?

how hard is that going to be
fr lol
rip everyone who pre-made their arrows though 
it comes from afk wc so yeah probably
yea ur gonna get the arrowshafts but u gotta do vorkath or whatever for arrowheads
you can use it on them iirc
15 arrows per resource instead of the 150 or whatever redwood is
er
dont u still need to add tips?
how is this any different than how i was getting arrows before lol
they will have multiple options similar to oathplate smithing vera
you should have to read the blogs and answer a quiz before youre allowed to type here
im just jesting
nah it still works
gotcha
costs significantly more to make than if you use it on logs
its generous that they even let you upgrade the existing arrows at all
oh boy they're making more environmental things that just stab you in vampyrium like draynor trees
the answer is in here somewhere :D
I just read up on the seeker arrows
this might be strong enough to make manual arrow fletching legit
those buffs are huge
wait +3 str?
oh and the accu from angui > pursuit
the accuracy is absurd
keep reading
hes talking about the new necklace
ok
I'm shocked they're only buffing arrows and not bolts
what is manual arrow fletching
bolts just got the hopper duhhhhhh
crossbows can suck a fat dick apparently
+30 range accuracy +3 range strength for tbow
The hunter activity being a 2 parter is kinda cool
inb4 tbow beats cbow at nex again
dont forget the 3 prayer bonus!!!!!!1
box trap up bait to use to get the birds
this is more of a relative boost than the nex crossbow weakness
so i think tbow will flat out win? but it would be breakpoint dependent
depends how afk the birds are
+2 min hits too
they're lower xp/hr
In terms of XP, the more active box-trapping stage is intended to offer XP rates comparable to Red Chinchompas, with the Stymphike luring phase offering slightly lower rates in exchange for a more relaxed, AFK-friendly experience.
yeah
leechfin sandwich looks really strong as a food, but probably very slow to get for irons
leechfin is so weird that I have no idea how gamebreaking vs gimmicky and unusable it is
can anything dethrone the true one king bwan
like we don't bother with antelope atm
32hp/ slot is a lot a lot
Melee-only food is kinda weird
don't think we bother with the sailing fish either right now?
not sure on that meta
and yeah the melee is interesting and weird
huh it do be weird that it is only melee
waiting for vw to make it proc instantly though
the spec wep?
ig?
it very much sounds like it's all meant to make you just murdering vampyres with as much damage and healing as needed
ok the crimson bludgeon looks interesting but needs to be calculated
it seems good to me at first glance but I could be very wrong
its just crush claws
only 2-3 people can do that
yeah, as with all spec weapons it needs to be calcd
bclaws especially make things weird with the two attack styles
I just really want a drakan repeatable but I think it might not be happening
doesnt sound like it but sounds they'll make him the hardest quest boss to date atleast
that works ig
which is def deserved and i prefer they keep it like that rather than diminish him being op as fuck by being repeatable
like oh yeah i finally killed the big bad
nope hes back
Nah it's just Phantom Drakan
maybe the other boss will have some of his mechanics though
Angry ghost
or like vorkath
that'd prob be a good way to do it
yeah thats fair
Drakan ends up captured instead of killed. We act as his torturers as vanesquela watches

Wyrmscraig or Gnome.. hrm

most hype for the unique animation of making an amulet of pursuit
your character just spawns in a wrestlign ring and elbow slams the amulets together from the rope
That island maker def made that for their D&D campaign
apparently tbow with the new range upgrades will be bis at maiden 
yama inc
than the accuracy given you 0 her

and the 2 min hits
even if it's a couple % better dps it will not be used there
mess up procs or something?
you wouldn't need any more switches afaik
has nothing to do with switches
whats the reason then?
consistent dps good
do some tob with scythers procing and bowers and you will see a difference immediately
well i guess it will be nice for irons pre scythe
the live rewinds on twitch are great
car just got stuck in the snow pulling into the drive so missed like 45 mins
some russian dude helped dig me out
bow before scy 
anguish buff good for pipe anyways
miracles can happen i guess
DPS on nex with new gear but not the 2 minimum from stalker arrows. Assumes max (dragon arrows) and lightbearer until the last which is venator ring
cow shearer real 
as a cheat you can simulate the increased min hit by increasing the max hit by +2 instead, its the same on average (but not for overkill)
also ya, freezing in a human team for maiden is amazing QOL
what is "stalk"
Wait they're seeker arrows not stalker arrows
yeah
Sorry rs3 has stalker arrows
theres no info on how abundant the new arrow attachment will be right
what is this cow boss
Is 1 flat armour equivalent? That'll be easier
F2p boss for about 15 attack and 15 strength. But also a hard mode which is apparently unbeatable at the jagex creator event last week
yeah very similar
-1 flat armour then, right?
nah they list wc xp but not tree sap rate, but since it can be applied to logs before cutting into shafts you can stretch it out a lot by cutting redwoods into arrow shafts
one redwood = 105 arrow shafts
bad rng if you used your arrowheads ig?
or even if you already made the shafts tbh
you can still use it on arrows or arrowshafts but 15/piece then
tbh theres no way that arrow shit passes as is right..
ok since they are fitted to arrowheads, i cant attach them to already made arrows?
well you probably won't use it on every arrowhead you own
but every dragon arrow probably
wait im dumb, moving the min hit does very little, it doesnt shift the rest around
so the impact is way way lower than 1 armour
its very minor really
cuz i was gonna ask if u just only use the new modded arrows from now on
dependsing on how fast tehyare to get
the accuracy is still huge but the min hit thing isnt tremendous
its basically a quiver in terms of dps no
for anything that isnt a tbow
seems crazy
idk I only read the blog, but it seems strong
tbf we dont really fire arrows other than tbow
its just scobo and tbow ya
tbow and scobow
yeah
the accuracy wil lbe rly relevant in max gear cm, since ur hitting like 70% accurate nukes
i wonder what the interaction is between min-hit weapons and doom grubs is - eg if you can use venator bow to one-hit them now instead of needing scobo
lets reasonably say your bow maxes a 50, assuming scobow. Low I guess but w/e
hitting a 1 or a 2 is then 2% each, and you gain +2 damage on hitting a 1 and +1 damage on hitting a 2, for an average of +0.06 damage
tbow in general is strong and inaccurate
ya tbow loves accuracy
compared to an average of 25 per hit, thats... 0.24%
big reason why current trio cm meta is shadow mystics
its similar dps but more accurate
so yeah itd be pretty much only the accuracy that matters
the min hit thing is a rounding error
yeah they look busted im surprised if they will pass as is
you think the average voter will think them being this busted is a bad thing?
also 3 forms of upkeep for venator bow gonna go hard
these 100% pass as-is
do these arrows change anything for low level bows like msb?
granted it probably won't be viable to use them for low level stuff supply wise
depends on how they do the min hit
unlikely given the difficulty requirement, but it's possible
faster weapons like flat damage
oh and the accuracy is also big for faster inaccurate stuff ofc
dark bow 
but then again prob wont be gamechanging
giving 23 accuracy to a 75 accuracy weapon seems pretty big but idk if it has any implications is the issue.
also lets not forget they said it will be the hardest quest pvm to date and will require multiple 70+ skills
i doubt you will be really looking to improve your msb at that point
I think on an efficient progression this is a joke but for many players it just might be the truth
idk they have been really pushing the quest bosses lately
but yeah who knows
maybe they actually make one that you wont be able to dscim/rcb ruby
oh actually you will probably use the flail
well its a vampire boss youre using the new flail
yeah
and its 4t and scales a lot with str bonus
well i'll see
so that puts low levels on the back foot
probably good couple months out for now atleast 
absolutely, they said summer
probably post leagues
time to see what reddit thinks about only lategame content
sorry, I think that +2 max is totally misleading
better to remove it entirely
I messed up
I think just ignore the min hit thing entirely
it wont be more than 0.5% off or w/e
if I understand the mechanic correctly this time around
depends how they do it right?
yeah
its a bit unclear, but when introducing the min hit of 1 rather than 0 they just turned all 0 hits into 1 hits
doubling the frequency of hitting exactly 1
Surely it'll work like sunfire runes
if this is the same, all 0-2 rolls get shifted into 3, it's going to only make a very minor dent
yeah hard to say what their intention is from the blog
but I'd assume they want it to be a real buff, idk
well the weaker you are the bigger this buff
also 3t shortbows gain more from the min hit floor than 4t or 5t or slower weapons
if it redefines the roll range its about +1 flat hit, or -1 armour on all enemies yeah
but I think its more likely that hitting exactly '3' will be 4x as common as any other nr
and its still a 0-max roll but the bottom 0-3 gets fused into 3
allegedly
yeah all speculation
well rolling 1-40 or 0-41 is about the same on average
unless the hp of the target is low
yes thats what I said
if that's how it works its about +1 flat hit, or +2 maxes, or -1 armour
They said in the blog you could multiply the sap you get from wc using drops from the new monsters. Wonder how much that is gonna change the economy of it for us.
id be shocked if they just made you roll a bunch of 3's, i dont think theres precedent for that
osmumtens fang works properly
Bit lore nerdy but I wonder if Azzy is looking in the archives for a replacement for the frostenhorn
On a meta level absolutely not
That's the difference between osrs and rs3 lore where zaros starts to return
Really dislike that they are spending even more time on sailing in 2026, we could have so much better content instead of them going back and fixing up the stuff they missed
I mean even with the horn they’d need the edicts down for that
Horn was just to help contact iirc
But fair that they likely don’t want even that succeeding
They are going to "fox" combat which has no real use, safespotting krakens isnt combat
historically "min hit x" has compressed 0-x to x in temp modes e.g. grid
They’re doing combat changes so that they can actually release interesting sailing combat
Really dislike that they are spending even more time on sailing dmm leagues raids pvp pvm skilling cow bosses in 2026, we could have so much better content instead of them going back and fixing up the stuff they missed
They already have an intresting combat system
Have already spent alot of time on sailinga and the combat is still bad; just stick to what works instead of throwing more hours after sailing combat
you should read the blog, what they have proposed for now are def good changes
We already have so many interesting items we should stop making more
nah that's bait lol
Lmao
cow boss was a game jam project and is basically already done
and tbh i really like their direction of making engaging combat more of a thing in the early game
ive always disliked that this game turns from click and wait to dance dance revolution suddenly after like 1k hours
Dunno, the whole "fix sailing combat node" feels like its not really going to add anything intresting or relevant to the game, I would pref they just kept the dates on the Vampire quest line
Really dislike that they are spending even more time on content I don't like when instead they could be working on content I do like
are people going to "like" sailing combat post update?
If they do something interesting why not? Do people like non-sailing combat?
maby i misread the blog, from what i could tell were just going to safespot krakens with 2 cannons instead of 1 and otherwise everything is about the same
yeah
Cballs also changing to be fully separate from dwarf cannon to allow a better avenue for cball creation
thats what they have planned short term yes
blog seems good, this is just bad bait lol
I mean witout a boss or something to use the cannon on does it really matter?
Were not going to craft rune c-balls to use on sapespotted krakens
Where is the boss on the roadmap?
bad bait but im hungry
thank god then they can fix the colors of iron and steel cballs not matching with the bars
or are we fixing now for 2027?
Yeah man 2026 things can affect things in 2027 is that a problem? Lmfao. You’d be looking at the area expansion for shit like that.
speaking of low tier bait, they're adding new at-sea regular fishing spots
I think that's really thematic
sounds cozy tbh
That’s also potentially nice for offcuts so you can stay out at sea?
Idk much about trawling
sail out to musa point and catch lobbies from your sloop
They gotta
trawling doesnt consume that many offcuts, and has ways to go infinite
Ah damn
Gotta get that bottomless milk bucket
Great idea for a reward lmfao
So op with poh larder
crab hunting does
Crab hunting meta you heard it here folks
but yeah in this case its prob more of a cute integration with the rest of the game thing
I’ll take that
Easy addition
Having enemy boats and fishing spots. Inching closer to sailing dream state
you're not gonna believe this
you need to hunt crabs for the new pot secondaries which are looking like very solid herb xp
And is the hunting itself decent enough that all together it is a relatively efficient thing?
Oh it’s the arma brew secondary
Hm
160k hunter and you can either chill or thiev chests/fletch/alch
just not enough volume to be anything other than supplementary to current methods
also you dont get good pots
Interesting
Wait not good pots? Are arma bees not good or am I misunderstanding
Brews

Duo nex pretty much the only use
(In significant amounts)
Can be cute and bring 1 to doom or zuk to repot
as in, usable pots
range pot alternative sometimes
Damn the Reddit megathread was a lot more negative than I expected
Is there anyone besides doom/zuk that you had a non-divine and not hybrid use case?
Reddit really isn't happy tfa isn't designed to be soloable
Wah
on reddit only .1% of players do tob
they are also whining about HD and mobile plugin api
was it delayed or something
for HD iirc the latest update was that the renderer needs more work
was like 1-2 months ago?
mobile no clue, but the guy in charge left jagex a while ago
Gengis, you may remember him from last summit as the really enthusiastic mobile guy
i see
so prob in disarray
that reminds me of the fossil island guy
they didnt mention anythingabout it at all this summit so im guessing a bunch of mobile andies thinking they got the cold shoulder
Gotcha. I’m not the most happy about it but it says it’s possible. Plus you gotta give the group gamers some love too yknow
I likely won’t get to farm it ever really unless I change how I play
but imo who really cares you have OSHD and 117 and just buy a laptop for plugins cmon bruh
i mean cox wasn't designed to be soloable and its one of the best solo bosses in the game imo. I wonder where tfa falls on the scale of yama to hard mode theatre in soloability
i do think the year looks kinda meager at the start but knowing blood moon rises is going to be a priff lvl update if not bigger im cool with a bit of a dry spell
first mistake is listening to anyone on reddit about game updates
I've played this game long enough to know the common pain points. I don't listen to the opinions, I just observe them.
Yeah leagues in April is filling a lot of the hype space for me
ya im just poking fun
We also don’t really know where some of the other things are being slotted ig
Gotta get that cow boss out yo
I'm really happy with a gm quest, league and new raid in a single year
Questing is my favourite part of the game and doing blood moon day 1 no guides will be epic
Them recommending 110cb looks kinda nutty tho
If the quest boss is as hard as that suggests getting quest cape might become much harder from now on
Yeah very excited for the quest itself
wonder what they're gonna do to make it hard. A step above the DT2 bosses maybe? Comparable to CG with no armor?
they said it will be the hardest quest pvm to date
what is the hardest quest boss right now?
i think whisperer generally kicks peoples asses for a bit
Seren, galvek, dt2 4 bosses
galvek was more an rng check for me
wights at lower stats
just bolt proc lottery
galvek and seren arent really hard
isnt seren pretty much just a dps race if you dont do pneck cheese
seren is just a test of do you have enough healing
whisperer took me the most tries vs all the others taking me 3 each
seren is simpler than vanstrom klause mechanically
the final wight fight at dt2 is bullshit tho if you haven't dealt with ti
yeah i hear whisperer generally kicks most 'noobs' asses for a while
or wights at lower stats
vanstrom's a very close third among all this
agreed. It was harder than any of the quest versions of the dt2 bosses imo
kasonde is the fucking worst.
yee-yee ass center room boom mf
so honestly wights > whisperer > other dt2 bosses/vanstrom/balance elemental > galvek > seren
I think vard would be the hardest if they didnt make it brute forceable
i ate every single axe when I did it lmao
yeah i could never actually do the range pray flick
wasn't mechanically good enough to do that
axe dodges was finet ho
I can’t remember which one I had the most issue with and it’s only been a few months lmfao
thrall quest boss
nowadays i could just tent whip his ass down and probably pick the fight up after a few deaths at worst
i died to it in max
im looking forward to doing no guide dt2
'because i didnt know how it worked
the wights also tax your supplies if you don't know what you're doing
Xamphur
xamphur was super easy
I think I had more issues with Xamphur than Whisperer or Vardovis only because I was so much worse when I did Xamphur
I apparently had fun with the dt2 quest bosses like a sicko
id prob still pick whisp because of insanity you just have to get good at it and cant really bruteforce it
duke was only hard because i couldn't get into rhythm at first
Yeah idk how I first tried whisperer. Dumb luck
i solved whisperer's enrage with the long-tested strategy of
And boss guides ofc
running around like a headless chicken
took me 2 tries, I did it with bowfa first time lol
avoiding 95% of the water slaps
I found whisperer pretty fun actually lmfao
But I probably won’t feel that way with the real one
i still struggle to keep up with movement and the 2t prayer flicks during levi enrage so i usually hope to kill him fast and usually make sure to be near it's spawn
from a lore standpoint drakan will prob be the most powerful smella we've faced so i doubt they want him to be a pushover in any capacity
well maybe yama but he holds back on purpose
even on grid master bonuses those radiant contracts were awful lmao
i have no idea how people actually run these. Too much to track and do all at once. Some of the enhancements aren't too bad (have to actually time your sigil use), some... oof
on gridmaster you legit just clicked the boss and it was dead
tbow gridmaster was ez af
im pretty sure one of the contracts was easier than base yama since it made tbow hit like a truck
yea
the blue one not the demon one
idk what happened and then it was hitting me every tick and i died
I hope it's like Nomad fight where people really struggled the first few weeks because they had low summoning
Talon beast go brrr
just saw this thought it was interesting
also apparently tbow will beat scythe at maiden now to
This changes nothinf
Tbowing maiden as freezers still bis. As non freezers still bad
ye idk hm of it will play out but ive always thought tbow was very slept on
these changes seem to do alot for bow esp
No it sounds godawful
It would need to be like much better DPS to even consider
Right now scy is like 1℅ better on paper but actually doing it is misery
ye i just meant in general how viable itd all be like not just tob uses but all new ones
tbowing most of colo npcs to as an example sounds to crazy
tbowing full colo beating out scythe is wild
still bringing the swap for sol obviously, but not having to do 8 way switches is a massive plus
Prolly no need to bring stuff like sra or fang for tob if u have a tbow then, and can be asked to use those arrows
Full max void Darrows beats max sra on sote with 1 or 2 mauls (idr which) and landing specs is pretty consistent now
Seercull/Accursed Sceptre every boss on 416 for guaranteed max MVP points!
idk about who but tears of guthix tps went way up in price a few hours before winter summit I think
? probably not it then
tbf the sweaty mercher discords prolly know the item already and are just buying it up now
tomorrow / day after maybe leak it and redditoids buy it up, driving value even higher and the merchers keep winning
I'm pretty sure either the blog or video stated you need bread, leech, and fish chunks (whatever the bait item is called)
Going over a simple route for Day 1 DMM with a focus on combat progression instead of farming points.

Can the leagues dad make a good dmm guide
I see a crab, so no
ill tldr you in like 20min
The dps sigils can only be applied by one person at a time, so gem crab is bad
I can tldr for you that this guy is clueless just off the thumbnail tbh
toxic D:
Sorry but just keeping it real
Might as well not install rig ranger or menace mage
yeah idk 30min at the crab in first hour is kinda crazy work lol
Sorry he's much worse than clueless
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Guide:DMM:_Annihilation_1-60_bracket_tank_guide_by_Laef
Is this one anything of worth for points gettin
This is a guide aimed at creating a PvM and tanking capable build for 1-60 bracket of Deadman: Annihilation, for easy skull points and moneymaking.
The end goal of this guide is completing Song of the Elves for access to magic logs, teak logs, Pickpocketing elves, Zalcano and The Gauntlet, all close to a safezone, that is accessible to very few ...
or are points prob easier blasting through brackets for level points
No
50 and 60 cb are way different
50 you were unkillable 60 you'll get rolled imo
Purge staff ice blitz conf gauntlets etc
So locking at 50 would keep me far safer while I get up all those breach points?
Ruthless Ranger and Menacing Mage? They shouldn't give xp, looking at how burn and poison work in the game
Welp I'll try to find a different guide for low-pvp 24k points 
They do
At least they used to
No
50 last year was tank friendly
60 bracket is much less so
full speed blitz into last bracket gigachad
Oh weird
ok
if anyone fidns a good guide lmk
gonna be at work for three days but id like to get dmm crystal
ty kings
i love u all
Faux is making one
check pins in #1437548510718459934
ty kang
oh thay says breach 1
im not gonna go breach 1 but
prolly gonna be fine right
you not able to get on on time? Its nbd if so. You can try to use a 1 hour immunity guide instead like Faux's as cooper recommended
ye
did faux make a video or what
im working 12h shift in the coal mines tmrw
(kitchen)
ye, he's got a vid that's specifically how to use your one hour of protection
yeeeee
is doubleshiens guide like meme tier
last year his dmm guides got me the cosmetics i wanted
I haven't seen it but its probably fine
Strong execution will be more important than picking the perfect guide
yo i ended up getting 96k pts using that build 😆 wasnt dogshit after all
holy necro
