[untold cypress]

Jesus. Did the hard clues from the hellhounds before going to metal dragons and got loot worth about a mil. Most of it from Nardah teleports. Do people like really not want to fly the carpet most of the way there?

[ripe timber]

spec transfer alts without da4 would be my guess

[untold cypress]

I have never touched god wars dungeon, but duradel is telling me to go kill graardor.

[simple grail]

slayer helmet is huge dps increase, so if you have a bowfa then go do it

[tame oriole]

I really wish they split them into bronze iron steel and mithril adamant rune

Because I actually didn't mind doing rune dragon tasks occasionally

[turbid pollen]

But u could do mithril dragons and get chewed bones for a 1/256 chance at dragon full helm

If you do barbarian pyre and lay the barbarian spirit to rest

[rigid timber]

Is there a way to copy your settings and share them with someone?

[clever gazelle]

Not recommended

Because then we get #support traffic with “why my runelite do dis”

[untold cypress]

Cancelled that graardor task. I wanna level slayer more. Got a wyrm task. Are the drops from the lavastryke wyrms still pretty valuable?

[leaden jolt]

Yea, the sheets are still 2.1m gp/ea

[simple grail]

lmaoo went to bathroom like 3 times

[hidden karma]

gz

dwh land any hits?

[simple grail]

yeah first one :)

[lucid knot]

yooo gz!

that was fast

[simple grail]

thanks! :D

[lucid knot]

dont forget to show ava the quiver+your assembler

[simple grail]

yeah did that asap :D, I wonder if I'm motivated enough to bless it now, probably not

they changed it recently so now you don't have to bless it asap, you can charge it incrementally

[lucid knot]

oh they gave it the arclight treatment?

[simple grail]

yup

[lucid knot]

good change

[leaden jolt]

Further crashing the price of splinters

[lucid knot]

farming those splinters on an iron is rather painful

[simple grail]

"Charging the quiver with sunfire splinters contributes to the required amount of splinters to upgrade. "

[lucid knot]

sick

[simple grail]

i had 4k splijnters in bank after kill so now I guess we do more

they removed splinters from doom :(

[leaden jolt]

They made the charging change on March 5th

[lucid knot]

or its just even more bots farming splinters

[simple grail]

damn? why would it crash so much because of that

[leaden jolt]

No need to buy a lot unless you're maxed and want to make the quiver max cape. So it really decreased demand

[hidden karma]

I got so many splinters from doom

Before they removed em

[untold cypress]

Well, got it pretty much on task rate, so probably not getting another with like 50 left

[simple grail]

Some thoughts on Colosseum: i think it's excellent content, I would have probably rated it higher than inferno IF the modifiers were different. Right now, i dislike the randomness they provide

I think it's way harder than inferno

Well maybe not way harder

[untold cypress]

Certainly has a lower barrier to entry though. Can just stumble in there, try a few waves and dip.

[balmy mantle]

Is osrs worth playing f2p like if I grind gp for bonds

[clever gazelle]

no

[simple grail]

no definitely not

you can play f2p sure, I wouldn't. but grinding for bonds is awful

i remember i did that once, i made like some weird pineapple pizzas in edgeville

dont recommend

[simple grail]

how many?

[hidden karma]

theyre removed from drop table now but easily 10k or so

felt like a ton at the time tho

[untold cypress]

Running back from the wilderness switch in ardougne and the fuck is this guy doing here post Song of the Elves?

[stray rapids]

Chillin

[balmy mantle]

What if I get one bond and then maintain membership through that

Is it doable

[simple grail]

it is but I think it takes away a lof of the enjoyment from the game

constantly sinking a bunch of money into bonds instead of gear and so on

but yeah if you don't have real money to put in then you can do that

[lucid knot]

playing bond to bond is kinda miserable, especially early game

instead of doing what you want to do you are grinding gp to buy the next bond

[simple grail]

it's doable on an iron after like a year if you get dupes

like if you're grinding twisted bow you're probably getting a lot of money in dupes

but for a regular account, it's like well anytime you buy a bond it's less gear you could have

[lucid knot]

[balmy mantle]

Im around 50 stats 60 in combat

Is that early game

[hidden karma]

Yes

[next swallow]

I feel like anything before at least quest cape is early game

[hidden karma]

50 is half to 99 in terms of number but it 92 85 77 70 63 54… you’re less than 1/64th the way there to 99

(Every 7 levels your xp doubles)

[balmy mantle]

Wtf

1/64tg

[hidden karma]

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Experience

[next swallow]

no way 67 is 4.20% of the way to 99

[fervent star]

is there a way to extend the afk log out period?

[simple grail]

over 30 minutes ? no

[hidden karma]

VGS

[fervent star]

im not familiar with where that is

[hidden karma]

Nvm

You don’t play tribes

Runelite needs this

[sly tartan]

the more items I add to custom hides (to hide the drop option) the more I feel like OSRS needs a way to "lock" items

imo its silly I can accidently shift click a piece of a skilling set, drop it, and it will be gone forever

[hidden karma]

67 67 67, 67 67!!!!

[sly tartan]

locked item = cant drop, cant alch, cant vendor

just a simple toggle

[hidden karma]

Haters will say that this isn’t grammatically accurate

But it is

[sly tartan]

[hidden karma]

I’m cooking

[soft kiln]

damn that was a long time grinding for 90 rc

[sly tartan]

I think I did the math

you can boost from 87 or so

[fallow pecan]

Would have been a lot lower if you got the outfit from GotR no?

[sly tartan]

yea

you still need to boost to 92

[soft kiln]

no, not for nature

[fallow pecan]

oh right they 'fixed' that

[sly tartan]

but the outfit makes it so you can have more space for stews/spirces

[hidden karma]

There wasn’t a fix

It never was a thing

[sly tartan]

or you can just have a full invy of stews, boost, and then use the collosal bag to take out 1 invy worth of ess

[hidden karma]

The outfit is just 60% boost of runes made so you gotta be 92 for 2x regardless

[soft kiln]

yea i know i could've gambled with spices, but honestly i hate that, and i want to get base 90 anyway 😄

[sly tartan]

fair

[sly tartan]

the 60% works for lumby

[hidden karma]

I didn’t think about the bonus spades for more stews

[sly tartan]

you can do elite with only like 40rc

[hidden karma]

Yes because it’s not asking for 2x

[sly tartan]

ye

its just asking for X # of runes

[fallow pecan]

You would have to be dumb lucky to have entire outfit by 40 rc

[hidden karma]

When they ask for 4x or more it becomes a way easier requirement

[sly tartan]

I think I had mine before 70 or low 70s

[hidden karma]

Not sure if you heard

But 70 is a bigger number than 40

[sly tartan]

but the only rc xp I've ever did was gotr

[sly tartan]

this might sound super autistic but

[hidden karma]

Mine majority is

[sly tartan]

in terms of xp and minigame drops

the kc difference isnt big

[simple grail]

ah hell nah

[fallow pecan]

You go from stupid lucky to regular lucky

[soft kiln]

i've used every single lamp in the last 10 years on rc

and tears of guthix

[hidden karma]

Are you a main

[sly tartan]

herblore here, but I'm an ironman

[hidden karma]

Or an iron

[simple grail]

tears of guthix goes on agility it is what it is

[soft kiln]

think i've gotten 50 -> 70 just getting free exp

[sly tartan]

I dont mind agility since we got the foot pedal method

[soft kiln]

if you're asking me, i'm a main

[simple grail]

only 70 for 10 years is wild

[sly tartan]

I got almost 82 rc

I got ~20 rc for "free" from quests (one quest gave me like 5 rc, and the other got me into the 20s; it was the gnome quest, something glourphie)

and then I straight up lived in GOTR

I love that place

I'd happily do it to 99

but after 85 ima try double astrals and ZMI

[simple grail]

most useful runes

[sly tartan]

85 = my collosal pouch becomes max size (40)

[soft kiln]

i made like 100k bloods

i didn't like it much

[sly tartan]

I'll try fake blood alter again after I get the agility for all the shortcuts

[soft kiln]

too much effort for the little exp

[simple grail]

u realized that after 100k? 🤣

too much effort? huh

[sly tartan]

for now I rather make money and do scar mine a few times

[simple grail]

it's very little effort

[soft kiln]

i mean yea

but still not as afk as redwood or something like that

[simple grail]

well yeah but it's the most afk you got

[sly tartan]

I dont think I've ran a single natural arunecrafting lap (bank, withdarw ess, go to alter) on this acc

[simple grail]

zmi is also decently "afk" but not really afk

[sly tartan]

only went to alters for quests

[sly tartan]

whats a big astral dump after 99 crafting worth of glass?

[simple grail]

shopscape

[sly tartan]

where you might need 10s of thousands

?

[simple grail]

or just get them for free

i have 48k runes

[sly tartan]

I'm asking what spells would you cast

[simple grail]

oh you mean use them

[sly tartan]

that require so many of them

not how to get them

[simple grail]

npc contanct, vengeance, humidify, so not much

[sly tartan]

true npc contact goes brr

[simple grail]

cure me I guess?

if u plan on using that

[sly tartan]

what do you use humidify for?

[simple grail]

building tps

watering saplings, tempoross fireman method

[sly tartan]

I use it for mahog homes, and thats wshat ima do to 99

btw whats a good first spirit tree

I googled and

[simple grail]

farming guild

[sly tartan]

I have the best jewlery box

by the time I can use the farming cape, I can have multiple spirit trees

[simple grail]

fair

if you do berry runs etcetria

[sly tartan]

I'm thinking hossidius, since its close to watson or w/e the clue guy's name is

[sly tartan]

jewlery box/fairy ring

or brimhaven

brimhaven doesnt really have teleports straight there

there's also a fruit tree

[simple grail]

brimhaven 100% is a good choice

[sly tartan]

where does the jewlery box go

[simple grail]

the ring of wealth icon u see it there

[sly tartan]

nvm I see the ring

yea I missed it

[simple grail]

but yeah brimhaven is definitely the 1st pick

[sly tartan]

yea

next farming level I can +3 boost for the spirit tree, so I'll do that

I +5 boosted for my poh spirit tree, but I used the sailing potion

but its one time

[simple grail]

in what skill

[sly tartan]

free +5 farming boost, one time use:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Bottle_of_potterington's_marrow_wine

[simple grail]

oh cool

[soft kiln]

i also put my first spirit tree in brimhaven for fruit trees and cart rides

[sly tartan]

I have karamja gloves for shilo

[simple grail]

holy rs3 reference

[sly tartan]

its just brimhaven is always a pita

either charter ship from anotehr port

speaking of diaries

[simple grail]

granny potterington 🗣️

[sly tartan]

jokerd, who started not too long ago

already got elite diaries done

my man is a machine

[simple grail]

all elites? sick

i got that done like 2 weeks ago lmfaoo

[sly tartan]

in a few RC levels I can boost for karamja

I can boost for kandarin elite rn, but I'd need to do BA

[simple grail]

i guess playing the game 24/7 as your job does mean u play more

[sly tartan]

lots of the wow streamers quit

but jokerd fell in love

and sardicko

jokerd was always a grinder, got world first level 60 in the wow classic relaunch in 2019

so osrs is the game for him

[soft kiln]

bones to peaches was rough

i think they did make it easier recently?

[sly tartan]

eh 2 hours

[sly tartan]

it felt fine with the plugin

just click the square/green

[simple grail]

yeah huge qol updates to basically all rooms

it's much more fun now

[sly tartan]

the only room that requires braincells is

tele room

basically agility

the other 3 rooms are kinda free

[soft kiln]

even if it was just 2 hours it felt like a year

[sly tartan]

true

[soft kiln]

most boring content i ever did 😅

[sly tartan]

I need to go back for inf boots and the book sometime

boots are ~1h

but book is 5 iirc

[soft kiln]

not looking forward to barbarian assault

[sly tartan]

honestly I have a bias because I've always done BA with friends on dsicord

[soft kiln]

i got the torso like 10 years ago when i started playing with my friends

[sly tartan]

and when you're on discord with the homies everything is fun

so its not bad

[soft kiln]

none of them play anymore

[sly tartan]

I can do some BA with you after I finish crafting

I need it too

maybe we can get a few other people

[soft kiln]

maybe another day 🙂

it's 3am here

[sly tartan]

I'm still crafting for a few days

[soft kiln]

just wanted to crank out the elite karamja

[sly tartan]

can mains "buy" runecrafting?

like if you're richman odablock

[simple grail]

i liked BA with randoms

[sly tartan]

I guess paying runners

[soft kiln]

yea runners

but it's very expensive

and click intensive

[sly tartan]

gotr

imo idc if its easy scape

but the redwood lantern should work outside of GOTR

and make pouches not degrade

having to get the lantern + 95fm + 90 wc (if iron) is more than enough of a grind

[soft kiln]

oh it doesn't work outside? i didn't even know

[sly tartan]

to justify bags that dont degrade

[sly tartan]

nope, only works in the minigame

[simple grail]

all u need to make pouches undegradable is 99 RC

[sly tartan]

ah yes

I love 99 cape effects

that are useful pre 99

but chances are you'll never do the skill post 99

[simple grail]

smithing 99 cape has the be the funniest one

[soft kiln]

attack cape also

[sly tartan]

I think birdnests from wc is

[sly tartan]

I mean for pvpers the teleport is nice

and getting the defender back for free

vs. getting tokens

[simple grail]

capes with tp is nice

[sly tartan]

better than +birdnests

[soft kiln]

yea wc don't have that 🙁

wc was my first 99

[sly tartan]

I dont even pick up birdnests that fall from trees

I get more than enough from bird houses, so the ones that fall while woodcutting arnt worth a click while afking

the cooking cape is a good cape

since it enables money makers

[simple grail]

yeah bird houses are just too op to care about a couple of nests cutting trees

[sly tartan]

and you can do the skill post 99 if you want, and make big bucks

[simple grail]

cooking cape is great because you need food after lvl 99

[sly tartan]

yea even on irons

[soft kiln]

i still do herb runs after 99 here on my main

easy money

[simple grail]

whilst other skills provide no useful function other than level requirements

like smithing

[sly tartan]

the smithing cape is QoL for the fucking blast furnace

so you dont have to glove swap

[simple grail]

farming cape is my favourite 99 cape

[sly tartan]

the hp cape is great too, enabls a handful of niche but good infinite hp afks paired with regen bracelet

[simple grail]

i've gotten 9m farming xp from just herb runs and hespori post 99 lmao

[sly tartan]

yea scuffed bank + poh in 1

[simple grail]

• herb yield

love herbs

i do like 5 herb runs every day lol

[sly tartan]

agility cape is nice because it acts like a graceful cape, so its a flex

[soft kiln]

this is also just farming contracts, herb runs and hespori 😄

[simple grail]

oh right farming contracts how could I forget

[sly tartan]

I only farm seaweed

and do hespori

I need to start farming

[simple grail]

my runelite drop tracker reset my farming contracts :/

[sly tartan]

regular iron, blowing glass to 99 rn

Maratx

[simple grail]

farming is probably my favourite skill

[sly tartan]

hunter cape is fine, infinite guild teleports

but so much capes could use a rework imo

like RC cape, WC cape

[soft kiln]

when farming launched when i was like 12

i didn't understand it at all

i just stood there next to patch

raking and watering

[sly tartan]

when I was younger I used to love farming

now idk why I dont do it

I need to

[hidden karma]

nah

Chorescape shucks

[simple grail]

the resource management aspect of it is very satisfying

turning seeds into herbs is awesome

[sly tartan]

a good friend, main, got 99 farming a few months ago just doing a run whenever his hardwood grew

[simple grail]

i can understand why people hate it though

[sly tartan]

that way it was like a run every 4 days

and on that day he did herbs, trees, fruit trees, and hardwood

ohh and calquat

and it just added up

[hidden karma]

My main got 200k xp/day

Doing only fruit trees

Mahogany days were special

[soft kiln]

farming is the easiest skill to 99 tbh

[simple grail]

mahogany oooooh yeah

[sly tartan]

I have a coconut tree in catherby I pick coconuts from daily

to stock up for antivenoms

[simple grail]

honestly if you do farming contracts you get a ton

[sly tartan]

yea ima start those soon

I got a list of what to do

[simple grail]

never done coconut runs

[sly tartan]

I've been wiking and

[simple grail]

you get 6 every palm tree you grow

[sly tartan]

it seems the protection system is like

to protect a "tier 2" fruit tree, you need to give the farmer a "tier 1" fruit

[simple grail]

yeah pretty much

[sly tartan]

so you want to do all the fruits to have stuff to rpotect

[simple grail]

i would only protect if you have it, don't go out of your way

ultracompost is very good and resurrect crops is good

[soft kiln]

i see it's different for irons

[simple grail]

the bottleneck is gonna be magic roots anyway

[soft kiln]

i always just buy the protection

[sly tartan]

I got a handful from

the new agility minigame

had enough to make my poh

[simple grail]

lmao i spooned it so i got like none

[sly tartan]

if you did just enough to buy the knife

[simple grail]

nah i got the drop

[sly tartan]

points + sell mask

ohh you got it from offerings

nvm

very nice

and you still sold the mask

what kind of madman are you

the poh decoration is peak

[simple grail]

yeah i shouldn't have sold it, I sold it asap could have waited if I got it

but whatever i don't give a shit

i got the gridmaster stuff in the bank still haven't built it

[sly tartan]

didnt know you played gridmaster

I played just enough to get

the poh decorations for the alter

kind of underwhelming ngl

its like flat cardboard decorations

[simple grail]

i bingo'd the board

it was fun

[sly tartan]

I had fun too

a few tiles kinda sucked

like 50 kc vorkath

90 kc huey

imo if they do gridmastert type shit again, keep everything the same but no grief rng tiles

or have some sort of pity drop

idc about going dry in the real game, but it feels bad in a temporary game mode

[hidden karma]

I got 4 of em

Sold the first dupe knife I got

And still have 4 knifes

[sly tartan]

you had like 500k bundles of trash though

[sly tartan]

just met a snowflake UIM, name Yellow Only -- color locked UIM

can only wear gear if it has atleast 1 yellow pixel (quests excepted)

[hidden karma]

just doubt them

Say they’re worn stuff they haven’t

Gaslight them

[sly tartan]

he's going on how he had to grind climbing boots g

for troll quests

[sly tartan]

he struggles enough with life being a UIM

I dont want to make his day worse

level 95 stranger is dt1 only right?

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Stranger

yea it is, seems there is a meme mechanic where if he looses sight of the original target, he will follow another person

[clever gazelle]

Don’t forget he chose that and that includes the ridicule for making things needlessly difficult

[sly tartan]

cant argue with that

I poked a bit of fun at how his barrows gloves have no yellow

and he told me if you look really close in paint, there is one pixel of [insert hex] that is considered a light yellow

starting pulling out receiepts

[untold cypress]

Is Ava’s accumulator a big enough upgrade to go out of your way to farm vorkath’s head?

[sly tartan]

if you can do it comfy, imo yea

not having to deal with ammo on the floor is worth it

what you can do si wait for a blue dragon slayer task to get some slayer xp

[halcyon trail]

I mean. Do you hate picking up ammo? Does half a max hit matter to you?

[sly tartan]

for me its I dont want to see ammo on the floor

I dont pick it up, and its a nice W qol

the max hit is a bonus

[halcyon trail]

Do you like money? If you answered yes to any of the above, then try borekath today !

[sly tartan]

well idk what his acc is (main, low level iron, etc)

imo if vorkath is a struggle, maybe wait

if not, just rip the bandaid off and forget about him

also having a salve EI is like a must

[halcyon trail]

Doesn't matter, borekath has a very low level to entry. You can do it in void with rune crossbow

[sly tartan]

true, send them ruby bolts

is he worth doing on irons post head?

the pet is cute a.f, but

the unqiues are kind of an F

the amulet is a small QOL for hunter rumours (combining with bonecrusher)

[halcyon trail]

It's free prayer xp, drops good crafting xp

Amulet? Unless you're thinking of 95 Slayer for the Hydra tail

[sly tartan]

well I'm on my way to 99 crafting this week

got all the glass

[halcyon trail]

That's kinda a two-part unlock. Though it's an upgrade to the fury for ranged

[sly tartan]

I'm thinking about this: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Bonecrusher_necklace

you combine the bonecrusher with vorkath's necklace

ohh you need a hydra tail too, rip

but still a nice small QOL

whats the crafting xp? the noted hides?

even post 99 iirc dhides are good alchables

[halcyon trail]

Ton of each color hides, good amount of gems, some ores. He's not called money dragon without a reason

[sly tartan]

yea, but a lot of those are main money

but he's fairly straight forward, did a bunch of KC on leagues in rag gear with level 2 relics

and addy darts + kq pipe

so I got the mechanics down

[untold cypress]

I just bought the vorkath necklace to make that a while back. Its a drip feed of prayer, but its nice not having to actively do anything with the bones

[sly tartan]

I'd use it for hunter rumours to save 1 invy slot

since you get bones, and have to drop them

I'm sure there is other content in the game that forces bones in your invy, but I cant think of it rn

Also did anybody play the shades of morton minigame after the recent QOL update? is it any good?

[sly tartan]

Wise Old Man funny

[old shore]

i last played that minigame the day it was released as a kid and never again

[sly tartan]

i've done it for the quest and never again

but I'd love a set of bloodbark

its like blue moon, but doesnt degrade

also looks cool

just the hat/body/legs

wow blood bark is also tankier than blue moon

chaos fanatic has 1/25 for splitbark top/bottom; but I still need to play the minigame for the scroll to convert it to bloodbark

[untold cypress]

Rad, got a basilisk task

[sly tartan]

gl on jaw

[untold cypress]

Yeah, if I get another it'll be strictly profit. Used my first on my helmet.

Figured I never know if I'll go dry on it so went ahead and used it for myself

[sly tartan]

you're a main?

also how are bassalisk tasks

just wear V shield and "afk" ?

[untold cypress]

Pretty much for ranged.

As long as you have prayer pots for protect magic its not much attention to be paid

I'll see someone run in with bandos gear and a fang every now and then but I'm comfortable with my crossbow at the door

I'm currently trapped playing Steal the Brainrot with my nephew. A game so boring and afk osrs is the more active game.

[old shore]

never lucky

[simple grail]

just found this in colosseum plugin lmao, can hide loot at sol so if you get pet and die you never knew

[lucid knot]

can help quite a bit with the pressure a big drop/pet would add

[simple grail]

yeah knowing me I'm definitely gonna use it

[lucid knot]

I would crumble probably if I see a pet in there

[simple grail]

1/200 players gonna get pet on their first sol and probably die cuz it's the first attempt, that would be rough

[lucid knot]

basically guaranteed to lose the pet

I rather not know about it

[simple grail]

yeah like imagine if you're doing a CG and you die to the boss and it said in the chat "If you didn't die you would receieve:

7x crystal shards
1x enhanced crystal weapon seed

I would flip the shit out

[lucid knot]

[simple grail]

honestly would be such a troll mechanic

would be funny in a way

[lucid knot]

dont give them any ideas

[silver wasp]

strugling with 150 toa. whats a good upgrade i can make?

or just skill issue

maybe add a boot swap?

[clever gazelle]

This is probably a stats issue

[lucid knot]

boot swaps are almost never worth it

dragon boots are fine

so yeah likely what dominick said

[clever gazelle]

The old saying of 90 in pre-shadow max was the same dps as 99 in ahrim’s with a trident. Stats are way more important than gear

[silver wasp]

do you concur councilor @clever gazelle

[lucid knot]

yeah getting some levels is by far the best upgrade you can make

[silver wasp]

but i wanna play now D:

[lucid knot]

those stats will work but its definitely gonna be rough experience

well you can play

its just gonna be harder

[silver wasp]

i made it to wardens p2 but ran out of heals

[lucid knot]

that could also be a matter of just practising more

if you take a tiny bit less damage in each room you end up saving a lot for p2/p3 wardens

[old shore]

make sure u get salts

[hidden karma]

Gear is fine. Stats could be a bit better but it’s likely just prayer switching issues.

You have so many brews, you should be fine.

[untold cypress]

210 basilisk knights and 7 sentinels later, sadly no second jaw.

Nice chunk of xp from all the superiors though

What's y'all's preferred place to kill bloodvelds? I need ancient shards so I was thinking of going to the catacombs, but you can't burst or canon them there. I usually just canon them in the labs

[simple grail]

Man some of these tasks are so obnoxious holy

[hidden karma]

It took me so long to get that on my main

The rng check is crazy

It genuinely took me 7 hours of rng to get it

[untold cypress]

I forgot elves could even be a slayer task

[sly tartan]

why not just leave the wave?

dont you see loot before you start the next wave like doom

[leaden jolt]

Why would you quit before sol if you're about to get pet and quiver?

[sly tartan]

maybe I misunderstand

in doom you see your loot and can either leave with said loot

or go down 1 delve

[leaden jolt]

Colo shows the loot you would get if you complete the next wave

[sly tartan]

oh!

thanks

[sly tartan]

there is an unhinged plugin that rolls random clue rewards + shows an interface every time you drop a clue

so you can see that you've potentially lost out on third age

(its fake so it doesnt matter as much)

[sly tartan]

also if you're a main or GIM, it applies the effect in a 3x3

[untold cypress]

Man hard clues are stacked to send me to the wilderness constantly.

[hidden karma]

The hub plugin can hide it to not get your nerves going but I also don’t see the loot I’ve already rolled

I had 2 crystals to claim for clog because I didn’t see I had one already lol

[simple grail]

LMAO

[untold cypress]

A few steps into a master clue I'm reminded Brassian mages are a thing

[untold cypress]

God dammit.

Ten steps in and Sherlock tells me to burn a redwood log.

I'm only 85 firemaking.

[exotic knot]

thankfully it’s like the fastest skill to level

for free no less

[untold cypress]

I know, but god was wintertodt pretty boring. Its where most of that 85 levels came from. The place is like the barrens chat of this game.

[exotic knot]

true

better just listen to something interesting with chat off

[untold cypress]

Like 200 clears of it and never got the axe much less the pet.

[sly tartan]

time to lock in todt to 99

[sly tartan]

the axe is a shared clog, solo rex for it

with shitty barrows tank gear you can get like 50kc a trip

using iban's blast or death earth spells (or air idr what he's weak to)

the only damage you take from are the siphiluses

a crystal shield probably extends the trip 2x, but I don thave one

[untold cypress]

Got a full trident I could take

[sly tartan]

check the dps calc, but he's afk content

also bring alchables

there is a 1 minute downtime between spawns

so when I went I alched

[untold cypress]

Killing elves for slayer has me thinking.

This look good for gauntlet?

[sly tartan]

probably perfectly fine, I'm personally waiting for 90 ranged

rn I'm blowing glass to 99, and after that I'll afk crabs and do some slayer for 90 ranged

and send red prison

Maratx

I'm like 2k xp from 89 magic

the guys here say 90 ranged is a big W, so its probably worth getting it first

[untold cypress]

Finally got my first gargoyle assignment after getting the slayer level for them

Think its worth the 5 mil for the granite hammer?

Or should I just grind on them

[sly tartan]

ima go google wtf a granite hammer is

[untold cypress]

Its the hammer off the gargoyle bosses

[sly tartan]

thought you where an iron

[untold cypress]

No.

[sly tartan]

is CG even worth for non irons?

I have a friend that does it for fun

[ripe timber]

you can get even more with rune armour

(and 2 alts)

[sly tartan]

what are the alts for?

killing the siphilus?

for me trip length was determined by 2 factors:
1 (main one) : running out of anti poisons
2 : running out of food, but rex drops food + regen, so its not really a limiting factor with barrows tank gear, and I'm sure a tank shield helps

ppots arnt an issue since oyu dont use prayer, maybe a few ticks of protect melee when aggroing him

[untold cypress]

I have remembered I have the dual macuhuitl. The gargoyles are dying fast.

I got the brittle key already. Do I need to be on task to kill the guardians or just to get the key?

[sly tartan]

the GGs need a key right

is it a one time unlock

or is it like obor

not a fan of the obor system

[sly tartan]

97/99 crafting

97 is always the grief level

1-96 its just good ole leveling

98-99 its the home stretch, so you're extra motivated

but 97-98 is that weird akward level that feels longer than it is

[old shore]

I don’t look it at that way, I see it as a long stretch from 0 to 100% and 92 being 50% and 97 as 82% etc

[sly tartan]

I usually look at the XP in a skill vs level; unless I'm targeting a specific level to make something (like 84 con for max house)

but when banging out a 99, 97 is the weird hump

98 gives you a secret motivation buff

Question for people who opted in for the RuneScape year end review for the first time this year:

How long did it take to get your email after you put your RSN in?

I put mine in yesterday or the day before, and still nothing my friend got his instantly though, without any form

[vagrant kite]

Looking for a clan

[hidden karma]

I have never opted out and have never gotten it

[untold cypress]

Man, vyres for a slayer task might not have the most valuable alchables, but no need for food or prayer pots or even a trip to make is nice.

They're perma hostile, so just gotta click the shrine every couple of minutes.

[hidden karma]

If you can find a worker…

World**

[untold cypress]

It hasn't been as busy since I came back for the sailing update.

This is the first time I've come back to killing vyres for slayer, but I've been in the area leveling thieving recently.

[sly tartan]

you opt in here: https://survey.alchemer.eu/s3/90994526/OSRS-Year-In-Review-2025

[sly tartan]

if you dont trust the URL, you can dig through reddit and find the official jagex post

I found the reddit link in a behemoth video's comments, so idk where it is

[sly tartan]

Is the max damage from void worth the slightly reduced accuracy (elite void vs. eclipse on vorkath)

https://i.imgur.com/yPLtRat.png

the ttk is about the same

I guess since I'll use ruby bolts for 75% of his HP, I want accuracy over damage % (more hits that land = more rolls on the proc)

[tame oriole]

Void not worth until dhcb I think

Because you barely hit

[sly tartan]

yea I'm testing stuff, and it seems like a lot less accurate

am I cooked, or does bloodbark feel like a big W? (atleast hat/top/bottom); basically ahrims defense, 1% attack, and doesnt degrade; also looks cool a.f

idk anything about shades of morton, so idk how rare this paper is:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Runescroll_of_bloodbark

1/100 from gold chests

I have blue moon, but bloodbark has more defense and doesnt degrade (same offensive stats)

[tame oriole]

Blue moon has str

So it's good when hybriding

[simple grail]

i didnt get mine

opted in right after their first send out

so should have gotten mine

i dont get why they dont use their in game message system

[sly tartan]

yea, I see people use it in toa

instead of bringing a melee set

but the wiki says it has better defense than ahrims, which is its selling point

and doesnt degrade, while moons gear is rich man shit to maintain

[simple grail]

that's troll

you wanna bring full blood moon

until you get black keris / fang

boppers with full blood moon on stab is really good, can skip hasta

[sly tartan]

the guy was using bowfa for the most part

and he had 2 keris

black and gold

[untold cypress]

Finally realized after getting my thieving up to 86 last week I think I have the stats to do every quest in the game I still haven't.

A lot of these are relatively low level varlamore quests too

[simple grail]

these are some chonky quests, have fun!

don't just spacebar through all of them :))

[untold cypress]

I don't tend to

Realized it when I got a kalpite task I thought I'd go finish that cursed sands quest for the keris patisan. Looked at the quest list and realized how little was left.

[sly tartan]

@untold cypress there is a list if you're interested

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Quest_point_cape

[untold cypress]

Thanks, but I don't really need it anymore since I have all the stats now I said.

[sly tartan]

I remember doing both rag and bone mans

just to get it over with

[untold cypress]

I started it, saw how many more bones I had to do and said fuck it.

[sly tartan]

btw I've seen a youtube short of boaty using a Monkey Maddness 2 quest skip, where you plant a mith flower and it clips you into the monkey kings room

skipping the entire kruk section

is that bannable/tos bug abuse ? or one of those things jagex doesnt care about, and left it in for peole who make 20 HCIMs

[sly tartan]

I hate yellow quests

so if I start a quest I finish it

[untold cypress]

You know, sometimes the little did you know bits when you log on actually surprise me. Like, yeah it is a helpful bit of information that the fire at the tempoross area is considered a range for the purpose of cooking. Wish I knew that before I unlocked the myths guild range.

[sly tartan]

thank madseason for those

[sly tartan]

how close is it to a bank

[untold cypress]

I mean, the ruins of unkah fire is only like 6 tiles away from the bank chest. The myths guild one is right next to one.

It also has a lower chance of burning than even the cooking guild range.

[hidden karma]

I dont think that’s right

Kourend kitchen and lumbridge ones I think are the only special ones?

[sly tartan]

I think it goes:
fire
range
special

a range is better than a fire, but worse than special

and yea only specials are kourend and lumby, I still go to kourend for sharks

but use myths for bwans because I catch a ton of them; so the burns arnt a big deal

[hidden karma]

I think the fire vs range is only applicable to some stuff

It’s not everything

[sly tartan]

ah

all I know is the specials are always worth using for high value fish

(unless you have a cooking cape)

[sly tartan]

how slow is jad on task with atlatl?

I'm considering unlocking jad tasks to gamba cape, seems like a fairly "common" pet and looks super cool

[sly tartan]

1.228m crafitng xp left, and I get the cool cape

[sly tartan]

What would you guys suggest for the 2 attack styles to bring to the Demonic Gorillas

I dont have any demon bane, and feel like its worth saving arclight charges for TDs

even though Dark Demonbane seems to be the highest dps/lowest ttk, soul runes are an issue

I'm thinking maybe twinflame + ranged or arkan + ranged?

I have a zombie axe, but arkan has a spec which saves swapping to the DDS

(the calcs are w/o buffs/prayers; just on-task)

[old shore]

i thought using arclight charges can count towards an emberlight

[sly tartan]

yea, but you need to kill TDs to get the sticc

and you're not killing them any time soon w/o an arclight

[hybrid bough]

Necro and archaeology level is 1. Which one should I use lamp from the 3 Christmas quest on?

[lucid knot]

might be asking in the wrong server, neither of those are osrs skills

[simple grail]

use arclight for them

yes save charges for TDs, but it's 30 shards aka 10k hits with arclight

you can use some for gorillas

[simple grail]

that is RS3 not OSRS

[simple grail]

also there aint no way ur bringing that many switches

you should always use prayers and buffs, so probably mage is gonna be bad because there are no good buffs for it and prayers dont do much

so use melee/ranged

[ripe timber]

no way christmas event gives a lamp in rs3

[simple grail]

christmas quest gives 4.5k xp, nothing game changing

there's a lot of nonsense to complain about in rs3, but 4.5k xp once every year aint it

[sly tartan]

true I'd probably bring 4 switches max

[sly tartan]

peak christmas, we got to get 99 tonight

https://i.imgur.com/Q0RC1H2.jpeg

[sly tartan]

303k xp left, almost there

[balmy trail]

anyone here a leviathan expert?

[hidden karma]

Hi yes

[balmy trail]

So I killed the boss first try from the quest, however I never even bothered stunning it and hitting in the back - because the flicks were never too fast for me. I know the quest bosses are always easier, but for non-awakened leviathan is that normal? I'm 99 range with bowfa

I guess I'm asking if people kill it like that ever? Or like only 1 stun per kill?

[covert vessel]

Where does everyone hang out in forestry for camphor logs?

[untold cypress]

Great conch I'd say. There's a grove of the things with a bank deposit box right next to it.

[hidden karma]

You can get good rng and be good without needing to stun yeah

And there’s a max speed I think

But it’s worth stunning as it’s a guaranteed max and also keeps it easy

[untold cypress]

I decided I wanted to make bossing of any kind easier. I want a rejuvenation pool in my house. I need 92 construction. I want to cut costs and open up money making. So to make bossing easier I've been bursting monkeys most of the day to get to 86 magic to use plank make to save money leveling construction. I like how easy it is to get off on a tangent in this game.

[sly tartan]

I'm back home - https://i.imgur.com/R8RERgf.png

forgot I have elite void, 2 more max hits!

[dull sable]

All I wanted was dragon axe

[simple grail]

🧢

[unborn nebula]

I will give you axe, give me ring

[untold cypress]

Wonder which would be faster, cutting my own mahogany logs while doing other things or cutting camphor logs and selling the planks and just buying my own mahogany planks with the proceeds.

[hidden karma]

Doing anything to make money and just buying planks is going to be fine

[untold cypress]

I decided to just go back to pickpocketing elves.

[untold cypress]

I forget, do people just really value the permanent priff teleports or is it just the 150 crystal shard that make the teleport seeds so valuable?

[stray rapids]

I think just the shards

I mean perma priff tele is nice but I feel like more people buy it for shards

[untold cypress]

I suppose its the only way to just effectively buy shards.

The first round of doing this I was going out of my way to go arceus spellbook and use shadow veil, not doing it this time and the success rate doesn't seem lower enough to bother using all those cosmics.

[dull sable]

I absolutely would :’)

[next swallow]

it took me 674 rex for one ring and you have 3 in 131

[dull sable]

I actually had 4

Cus I already had a b ring

Hehehe

[simple grail]

ah hell nah

[simple grail]

i love the permanent one

but the money maker is because of shard conversion

cuz people don't do CG they just buy seed

[untold cypress]

All my shards are juast from pickpocketing and zalcano

I still haven't beat regular gauntlet

[sly tartan]

||https://i.imgur.com/0kOJuaO.png||

its a fairly common drop though, so midriff went like 6x dry

[sly tartan]

is +0.4 DPS worth the bonus xp/h to go from bone bolts to broad bolts afk crabbing?

[analog star]

I have golden spoon at dks.

[hidden karma]

Bone is so, so cheap

[sly tartan]

the other rings are "dead contnet" right (archer/seers)

no +dmg

so just use ring of shadows (until something better)

[analog star]

Seers ring has tiny damage buff but way magic works that only helps when you hit a new max hit threshold so have to dps calc.

[sly tartan]

let me double check

[sly tartan]

yea thats why the piss pyramid from the royal titans is better than the raid prayer in a lot of scenerios

no max hit from the raid prayer, but 2x the drain

ohh wow seers ring i has 0.5%

might be worth trying to get on task for memes

I think you can "safespot" the mager, just keep pray mage up

and fight it one at a time

yep there is a prime only setup, pretty much the same as rex only but with ranged and telegrab

[next swallow]

I mean they're not super useful but aren't dead because you make the bis rings with them

that are useful

[sly tartan]

I didnt know seers had dmg on it

but I thought archer's ring having a wee bit of accuracy essentially made it useless

but yea I should've phrased it better, I know upgrading them to the DT2 rings is peak

ultor, and whatever the others are called

I wonder if the wiki has tiles for prime safespot, so I can xlog after aggroing

[leaden jolt]

Unless you have a shadow seers almost never gives a max hit

[sly tartan]

might be something fun to get on task

just to change things up

the imbue scroll is 20 min max forfieting at emirs arena

I'm not in a rush to get it though

[leaden jolt]

Once you have berserker I wouldn't go back until you have frem elite and can tribrid

[sly tartan]

isnt 1kc for the diary ezpz if you just eat through it

rn I'm working on 90 ranged for red prison

I think 85 def + 90 ranged + 89 magic + tier 1 should be comfy

[leaden jolt]

89 and 92 are max hits

[sly tartan]

I'm at 87, and I rather get 90 to look nice on the stat sheet

a friend that has about he same pve skill ass me is doing tier 1 cg comfy

he has higher combats, 95+ all

but idk how big of a difference that makes

90 -> 92 will take a few more days I could be in the prison for 1 max hit

[leaden jolt]

I mean you can do it with low stats. My friend got gauntlet cape with this

[sly tartan]

yea ik people start super low

zippy couldnt equip a bowfa when he got it

I'm 2k xp from 89 magic

got 99 craftin last night

btw another couple of silly questions:

1. imbued lyre worth getting?

2. if it is, how long did it take ya'll to get the 400 turtles and mantarays, and what did you do? idk the min level fishing and path of least resistance

[stray rapids]

No way it's worth it

I feel like it'd take forever for the mantas and turtles

[leaden jolt]

Yea I don't have it. Con cape to rellekka is good enough for me

Although I did have enough fish from tempoross but I cooked them all

[sly tartan]

my current path is POH -> waterbirth -> boat

But I think POH -> lunar -> get kicked off by racists is better because you can bank

[sly tartan]

I seen a dude driftnet fish, and each harvest had a fair bit of turtles and rays

speaking of con, right now I dont really have any 99s planned; if I get it I get it

but if I had the planks for 99 con, I'd set it rn

[stray rapids]

Yeah if you're already gonna drift net it's probably not bad, but you have to make the nets

[leaden jolt]

Const cape is so so so nice

[sly tartan]

its not like salamander nets? regular net?

[stray rapids]

No you have to grow jute and weave them into nets

[sly tartan]

yea with the crafting cape I'll have the golden duo

[sly tartan]

driftnet fishing is dead to me

[leaden jolt]

Drift net fishing isnt really a thing on irons

[sly tartan]

yea, the second I heard "grow your own" I didnt have to read the rest of the sentance to knwo its dead on irons

[stray rapids]

Yeah I tried like one farm run of jute and barely got any nets and gave up

[leaden jolt]

When I first started playing making drift nets was how I made money on my main

[sly tartan]

doing stuff people dont want to seems to be the mainscape money maker meta (outside of pvm)

[spring elk]

christmas came in clutch

[sly tartan]

big gz!

I heard vard is a fun boss to grind, even with nooby gear

I only did 1 kc for DT2

[simple grail]

With nooby gear? Idk, but with nox halberd yeah

Enrage phase + life steal makes good dps more fun

[spring elk]

Mechanically he's one of the most fun bosses, gear wise I think he kinda sucks at lower tier gear since your trips will be short with the chip damage and lesser dps

[sly tartan]

the quest version chipped me pretty hard

in blood moon + arkan blade/defender

[untold cypress]

Leveling construction. Y'all think I should get amy's saw or the carpenter armor first?

[hidden karma]

i dont know if it matters

if you're a main you should just make more money and skip mahogany homes

mahogany homes is so slow compared to regular con

[untold cypress]

In the long run, probably not. Wanna get them both.

[hidden karma]

sure but i think you're not an iron

so it's really neither lol

:<

[next swallow]

if you dont have plank sack, that's prio 1

[hidden karma]

[untold cypress]

That was an insta buy

[hidden karma]

I mean plank sack is useful for other stuff like sailing

[hidden karma]

i wouldn't know 🙂

[untold cypress]

It made making hull parts less annoying

[next swallow]

also for sep

[ripe timber]

why does your game look so crisp

[spring elk]

The jist of it is I play on a 1440p screen with stretched mode at 100% and UI scaling on nearest neighbor, and no antialiasing

[whole carbon]

A question about object/tile markers. My marked objects have their tiles marked blue.
How do I make some exceptions? For example, I would like to separately mark vardorvis axes with yellow outlines.

[stray rapids]

Shift right click and hit pick color I believe

[lucid knot]

yep

[whole carbon]

hmmm. Can I right click vardorvis axes? 😄
Will check that later

[hidden karma]

No

That’s why people use better NPC highlight for vard axes

[sly tartan]

@whole carbon here are the true tile IDs for all the desert treasure 2 bosses (stick then in better npc highlights under "true tile")

12227, 12226,12220,12198,12208

vard axe, vard head, whisperer waves, and duke farts

sadly if you change the true tile color in better npc highlights, it'll change the color for everything you've input

[spiral vale]

good gp how

[hot acorn]

hey guys im back after like 20 years are party hats cringe now jw

[lucid knot]

in osrs party hats have never been of any value

[hot acorn]

thx

[sly tartan]

I mean they're still fun to wear for fashionscape setups

but they're worth almost nothing gp wise

there is also a black xmas hat you can get from Diango (you have to do atleast 1 xmas event)

[hot acorn]

just cool to have one for nostalgia reasons since when I was around they were inflated so crazy

[stray rapids]

They still are in rs3, just not in osrs

[random gull]

I still have quite a few party hats 🥳

[sly tartan]

in a way you could've made a bit of money going to the jmod drop party

a cracker is 100k

santa is like 20-50k iirc

and they dropped like something on every tile

[random gull]

I’m a cracker

[sly tartan]

100k is far from 100b like rs3; but for a low level new acc thats nice if you can pickup like 10 of them

[random gull]

Never will I play rs3 it’s osrs till they put me on my death bed

[sly tartan]

I played like 2015-2016 for a few months to try it out

I spent like 400$ on keys just to get shit faster

because there where so much arbitrary requirements like overloads

and I could either get it now or get it a lot later

but there was no sense of accomplishment

it felt like a temu tab target mmo

the quests where peak though

[simple grail]

arbitrary?

how is a skill requirement to make potions more arbitrary in rs3 than osrs

[sly tartan]

in rs3 it felt like something you have to have

atleast at the time

no overloads, go do herblore until overloads

here no divines, no problem

[simple grail]

i agree they are more "must haves" than something like divine pots, but you can just use super pots the same as in osrs

overloads are only "must haves" when doing high tier pvm, and then it makes sense to have a high req

it's a +17 boost for stats, the exact same as extreme pots and super pots give +13, so it's +4 more than super pots

[sly tartan]

getting the stats wasnt a big deal, it was just after I got everything

I went to go kill bosses

and I just wasnt having fun

[simple grail]

https://runescape.wiki/w/Fairy_Nuff

did u play ironman on rs3 though

[sly tartan]

I dont think it existed yet

[simple grail]

i probably wouldn't enjoy neither osrs or rs3 if i played mainman mode

[sly tartan]

a big part of it was I was trying to maybe re-live some of that 2010-2011 rs2

but i got rs3 instead

and at the time osrs was more or less

"a 2007scape pserver with 1x rates"

as in its just the 2007 game spun up with minimal changes

[fallow pecan]

And a bunch of stuff was broken in the initial release too

[sly tartan]

like what

I know BA didn't work right for a little while

The tilepack plugin only has awakened whieper, which is the whole screen cluttered; wiki doesnt have them either

Ground out the 2000 points for the construction outfit.

Got to level 83 too, so if I boost I can make the best jewelry box now.

[sly tartan]

get 84!

84 is the best portal nexus and best pet house (trust me you'll want it)

[untold cypress]

I know its not as big a deal for a main account like me, but I mostly want to just get a nice all in one teleport point. As much as I can anyway. Pop in, fix myself up, and go basically anywhere I want. Crystalline nexus is the goal, then the ornate rejuvenation pool. Then work on adding teleports to the nexus over time.

Not sure which altar to make first. I've got a pharaoh's scepter, and I guess since I finished most of the quests in the desert I mostly only use it to go switch to the ancient spellbook.

[sly tartan]

I made an ancient alter, and then upgraded it to occult

getting ancients is the biggest pain out of all the books

lunars you can get 1 click from the teleport, and aceous isnt bad either

[untold cypress]

Even if its a while before I make the occult I guess once I add the arceuss library tele to the nexus its basically a short walk

[sly tartan]

didnt you get 83

you should be able to stew boost for an occult

[untold cypress]

Yeah

[sly tartan]

its only 90

+3 saw +5 stew = 90

yea you can make occult rn

[untold cypress]

Yeah, at this point its about the money. I'm at about 10 mil. Whole bunch of marble, gold leaf, and magic stones to buy still.

I've got a bit over 1k mahogany planks still in the bank, so that might be enough to get from 83 to 84.

For the crystal nexus

[sly tartan]

cave horrors are like one of the worst slayer tasks, but I want a second black mask for the poh dummy

my house drained my entire cash stack

[sly tartan]

rich man, I did teak contracts

I'm an iron though

[untold cypress]

Don't know if I want to go back to elves or vyres to make some more money. Its weird but I think I've gotten more blood shards than crystal teleport seeds.

[simple grail]

main man mode sounds awful

[sly tartan]

it feels like the end game is more or less the same for both

irons just have more chores

[untold cypress]

I bounce between osrs, GW2, and FFXIV, so less chores for me.

I dont think O'm missing anything

[leaden jolt]

A bowfa 😭

[simple grail]

bowfa for vorkath is wild (98 herblore req for extended super antifires)

hooray I love wilderness!!!

[simple grail]

is that better than void?

[sly tartan]

I did the math

void is super innacurate and lower ttk

also idk what it is, but I keep failing the little minion

on gridmaster I did 60kc, minion was no problem

spellbook -> crumble undead -> done

[simple grail]

ur just too slow then

[sly tartan]

but now theres like a delay between when i click cast crumble undead on him, and when it comes out

[simple grail]

stop attacking the boss

click the ground before u go into spellbook

so ur character doesnt shoot with crossbow

[simple grail]

thats why diamond bolts

100% accuracy if they proc

[sly tartan]

Zippy helped figure out my issue, my attack timer was griefing the cast

on leagues I had the relics, so I could cast the spell pretty quickly

the solution was to swap to a staff when he summoned his homie out, that way I dont shoot my xbow by accident

[leaden jolt]

You can also just click the ground if you don't want to switch weapons

[sly tartan]

the chip damage is pretty rough though

doesnt seem to be that big of a damage between pray ranged and mage (dragonfire shield + regular dragonfire pot)

[leaden jolt]

Yea there's a reason the ironman meta is bowfa to backpack upgrade then come back when you have better gear like fang

[sly tartan]

I plan on just getting head, and then just doing baby blue dragons for the task

until much later when he dies quickly

also bowfa grind starts this week

also I'm having fun doing something differnet

[simple grail]

you're gonna take a lot of chip dmg with that as well though, but it's definitely better

vorkath is just a horrible boss until dhl

[leaden jolt]

For sure. I was getting 2kc trips with bowfa

[simple grail]

glad i got my head at like 14 kc

didnt come back until almost bis melee

blood moon instead of bandos is actually nice in a way cuz you don't need the staff for accuracy

[sly tartan]

either way I'm having fun, cleaned up the mechanics after a few kc

each kill is 4-5m

unluckiest kill was 6m

its 1 kc per trip, and its pretty fast to get back

house tab -> wash my face at pool -> nexus to lunar isle -> bank at the non-racist guy -> talk to racist guy to get sent to Relleka -> unreal -> fight

last kc I got pretty lucky with rubies/chip damage, so I could've stayed in for another KC if I wanted to

but since bolts are RNG, there is a chance those supplies wouldnt be enough

What I do is try to maintain as much DPS as I can, and only eat during "mechanics downtime", like when walking during acid phase, after killing the little dude, or when running a few tiles over for the 1 hit mechanic

[sly tartan]

how long until Nartin starts grinding vorkath?

I think he started playing osrs before me

[sly tartan]

I assume Dragon Bolts are dead content on irons

even for stuff like a ZCB spec, a regular ruby bolt E will hit 110 just the same

and from the research I did on yt some time ago, crossbows are kind of a meme the further you get into RS

[hidden karma]

not exactly dead content it's juat a valuable resource

[sly tartan]

whats it used for?

I watch a ton of pvm videos, and dont think I've seen a crossbow used outside of a zcb spec

it seems to be used in pvp with the dcrossbow though

for some fancier setups

[sick pelican]

Ime cbows are used for like 2 bosses and otherwise poor mains who don't have megas or anything better

Zcb spec doesnt count

[sly tartan]

I'm using a rcb with addy ruby/diamond bolts @ vorkath rn because poor iron; but

thats like early midgame + iron memes

[sick pelican]

Yeah

[sly tartan]

out of antipoisons

time to make a bunch of trips to the brimhaven general store

wait a dude at sophanem sells them

[simple grail]

damn

that's an insane PB for the GM task

gm task is 1:20 lmao

melee only GG's is awesome

[sly tartan]

you need a "ober key" for GGs right

[simple grail]

yeah one time use

[leaden jolt]

I got assigned my first gargoyle task tonight at 85.5 slayer

[simple grail]

the changes they made to being able to melee these bosses is so awesome

crystal halberd spec is SO GOOD

it's actually insane

consistent +100 dmg for 30% spec

for the GM kill my chally specs were (103, 59 (remaining hp), and 81 (remaining hp))

with no tick loss because you use it before phase transitions

same with zulrah

just a goated spec

[sly tartan]

I love when RCB procs when vokath is immune to damage

[simple grail]

:)

[sly tartan]

yea ima make one when I get a regular weapon seed from CG

I dont want to pay 750k

also ima make a crystal shield just to have

[simple grail]

crystal shield is extremely good for inferno

huge range defense

[sly tartan]

I used my free regicide weapon on

the bow

because you need it for a diary
