How doodie do you think clues would be for doing all clue tasks if I dont take Conniving Clues?
No idea if it just insta spawns when it lands or if it spawn when to starts to fly to trap 
Can you link?
Transmutation, Butlers Bell and Soul Harvest are 3 new relics coming to Leagues 6 Demonic Pacts. I love the Transmute and alchemy mechanic and really think this could be the one relic you really regret not picking.

DISCORD...
i think this one
ive watched a ton of vids though
pulled from history lol
Ty haha
8 now and they said they were gunna make sure 8 were always alive as much as possible
So did the wiki DPS calcs change at all today?
Will butlers bell do all the activities at the same time?
Nah you pick one at a time
watching it back i dont think he explicitly says conniving isnt worth it, but transmute is so good it overrides conniving imo. Also someone in the chat was talking about if kandarin and thieving you can finish clues just by dropping bad steps
and i need a rc solve so reloading into soul harvest
vs clues which are fast if you slow roll the region unlocks via not unlocking in the ui and just banking the points
so just +2 but hyper respawns, should be fine
abundance plus 10 are you always plus 10 levels or just start with 10 levels
Always +10
it counst as a boost
89 you can do all
im also just getting like 15gp from pickpockets and going straight there, will backtrack after i get the level for rumors to do tasks to unlock woodsman
Anyone have fast rush relics build for max multiplier?
i'm not good at rushing anything, i'll probably wander over as I get to it, not to mention there's no way i'm actually on at 8am anyway
with how generous the xp milestones are, probably something funky like abundance+woodsman for rushing hunter and fletching, go kandarin and just buy tons of arrow shafts/feathers from shop, get 50mil fletching while you work on hunter
feel like they should say its a boosted lvl and not permeant lvls
Im debating just reloading into clues and rush through them for points to get to t8, flow state seems op but I mean, leagues xp is already cracked
it's the same wording ... production prodigy? i think it was called, had, and that's the way it worked, lemme double check
Its a boost so you cant claim cape, its like using a pie but the boost doesn't degrade
yea, well, roughly same wording
"boosted by 10" and "boosted by +12", same deal
it's a boost, not a granted level
like a pot
i see it does say boosted
flow state is bait
if you arent eh, reloading into eh is better
if you are eh, reloading into something youre missing is better than speeding up already easy shit
I'm not missing anything
then obviously you need to reload into another teleport relic
Does anybody know if this got confirmed? As we're irons, and it says 1gp per 1 point but, is that affected by minigame point multi? So i.e, 1gp for 8 at higher tier.
so true
jk, as much as flow state is "bait" it's not bad, if you wanna finish out one of those skills, already have the materials to do so and just want to make it faster? completely valid choice
this is a temporary game mode after all, time is a big resource to consider
What do you guys think for 1st go before any resets? Kandarin, Tirannwn, Desert.
For the blindbag I will aim to get 5 blades of saeldor of each color
Plan what you will choose in Leagues VI using our Demonic Pacts tree.
especially if you did something like abundance, and rushed points over skilling, it'd be a decent wide-cover
that's probably good coverage all around, first 10ish points to water mage+power staff, then up to hally would make CG a breeze, then just fill out as you go
didn't even think about saeldor colors haha
ah it is heavy, neat
This is how it was last league. It's not boosted because you aren't earning points
hadn't looked that up
What're the rewards for this league in the main game? 
We don't know yet

Possible maybe we see them tomorrow
SRA, trient and iban staff cosmetics
Guys I'm in a pickle for zone choices. Want to go wildy with a cbow kbd build with ToA in the desert. Now there is 1 region left. Asgarnia or Kandarin what fits best? Asgarnia gives fortified and pe on avernic boots but kandarin gives thermy and zenytes. Dps wise it's the same. Defensive wise asgarnia is better. But Kandarin gives me the option to still respec magic?
the lil imp override is pretty cool
Ah ok, i've never taken Kandarin in any league because, well, lol. But if it worked last league that sounds good tyvm
SRA looks fantastic too
agree

I was really hoping for that. 
I saw on reddit that the leagues release today was a total troll. 
depends if you think you'd want that respec i think, asg is definitely the "more content" choice
i doubt youll have 40 points before you want to do a respec tbh
Asg also has nex vambs. Not much in kand for range tbh
'Cuz one of the content creators in the video had 48/40 pact points.
yea he figured that in, they're similar in dps upgrades
Not really. Task lists are always good
asgarnia void cuz of cbow
XD
I feel like kandarin is only worth it for mage builds
Anguish +5
void + bbc is crazy dps
And vambraces are a pretty shit upgrade tbh
Like do they even add anything meaningful?
it's vambs+boot upgrade
Ye for 3 total range strength +2 and +1
Anguish is 5
yea, it's similar
Ehm void is good shout tho
not the same XD
void in the dps calcs beats masori pretty sure
Yeah void is a reason to take asg.
and not really distinct enough to go crazy over
I just know I want Tirannwn. 
Especially if you also plan on doing culling
the (f) masori is a nice boost if you want it and yea there's always void
but void/asg/desert pretty strong combo
On low defence targets yes
BBC on wildy bosses on task and with void would be silly
depends on how much you want to camp crossbow or if you want other builds
that's a good point, void+cull+cbow would be amusing for boss tasks
this pretty much
Crystal blessing + shadow can be nuts too! 
kand is an instant respec to almost any mage build you might want
on the other side, since wildy anyway, you may not even carea bout shadowflame, smoke barrage with accursed scepter in wildy would truck
someone mathed out void being better since 10% more + pacts is more dps than flat ranged strength from masori. Like slow hitting hard weapons benefit more from accuracy nodes on the tree and the more multi from void
you have to go hard for accuracy points though if i recall
I think I'll probably just end up camping a 3t bowfa
im not 100% cuz im not going bbc, just off my memory
I feel like the purpose of going crossbow (and 2h melee too at this point) is the chance of seeing some absolutely stupid 1shot damage values
Void is better on low defence targets, masori is better on very high defence targets
so i can see the draw for void
BBC is? The kbd weapon?
dps calcs doesnt even have the final bow nodes calcd lol
I wanna learn Doom this league. 
yea big black crossbow
Just know as someone who went asg two straight years some of the tasks are grindy
Alright lmao
And you have awakened whisp
in main game yes, in leagues i dont think so, let me plug in what i think they had
Wait do we get the Ava's Accumulator this league? 
yea, i did asg range uhh, 2 leagues ago? it can definitely be a bit if unlucky
Quiver...
Nevermind, we have quiver. 
I think it can be bought from a shop in frem?
It is same in leagues just higher defensive stats as cross point
Not 100% sure
Over 300 bandos and zammy kills to get the drops needed for their points.
What kinda relics do we need to cheese colosseum? 
i did ok on 3 of them, but it took me like 500 kills to get the dumb cbow to drop
Zaryte bracers wil take a while to farm tho if unlucky lmao
Well, flask can hit hard initially
i had the stupid nihil horn before i got the cbow
Can we take Minion and let our little imp solo 'em?
Can't remember how much HP he has
Yeah but you still have to avoid him
it was frustrating as hell
As someone in midgame on the main game, looking for raid experience starting with TOA.. Water mage or BBC build? I can't decide which would serve better for learning the raid and other general purpose stuff Dx
And ehhhh... What about BBC with the +25% cap stone on max hit? Does that work since the second one is a ice attack?
I'm not prepared for Colosseum without Last Stand. 
husky said it does not count for that as it's technically a range hit
same wit hthe "melee" range echoes
they're melee hits for that node
What is bbc build cause im genuinely confused and old and that acronym surely doesn’t mean what i think it means lol
So i want a style switch or I just skip the node?
yea
BBC is Big Black Co Crossbow. 
Any good style switches for that? Don't think so?
Big black crossbow does heal from taking ice into water and rune regen doesn’t it ?
Don't have the pts for that as I want water to heal
https://dps.osrs.wiki?id=TaskNightChitin so like sol yea
I wish we got unlimited resets!! 
but you would effectively be hit swithing for guaranteed maxhits with a 25% boost every single time
Air mage + crossbow works. Just a lot of switches from prayer gear to range gear
ye
verzik no
though with crossbow being so slow, it wouldn't be that punishing
If i go air magic tho I should skip asgarnia and go kandarin...
you'd probably want kandarin if you wanted to do something like that yea
tree would change a bit too
The Crystal Armor gets +6% magic strength and +20 magic attack bonus with blessing. 
it's 20 magic bonus per piece
so 60
if set worn
oh you mean in total
yea, since -40 base XD
bigger max with void bbc, masori looks cooler and still does decent. Up to you
it's a solid option
^ they did mage dirty with Tiranwynn
I'm going to think about it more and just afk the first few days and let other people figure it out 😂
not sure on ring slot either
Survivability not an issue?
Tir wildy Kand could definitely workf or that though
youre healing a fuck ton
i'm going those regions for just pure mage
Ultor if you have desert (which I do)
but crossbow hybrid sounds like an optional respec for me
So im half thinking the same but void is nice...
Should've been +50 magic attack per crystal armor!!
Yeah i made my buddy a bbc and water mage hybrid build that’s pretty decent.
yea if you wanna just launch nukes i'd say asg wins
more things to do with that as well
KTW doesn't actually have much to do
Im going kandarin, tir, desert
do KT bosses then go goof off in wildy
I’m kandarin tir and mory cause i wanna tob lol.
venator? plugged it in, https://dps.osrs.wiki?id=ButterflyBrewinPowers
the only boss i could find that masori does better is sol
Wait, at +50 per, 110 total, it would be more than even Ancestrals, nevermind. 
Do KWM - get all 3 combat styles and a raid region, wouldn’t that work?
that woulda definitely been way over the top lol
I didnt wanna do any other part of mory other than tob
Should've been +30 per set!!
honestly even in autocast setup i'm at like 87 magic accuracy, it's... acceptable
Lmfao you’re telling me I’ve been grinding pnm on the main and have gotten only parasitic eggs
yea... the side-stuff in mory is why the alt is going such low-content regions
lol
gonna try and push for as much stuff on mory melee as possible
Barrows isnt fun to grind nightmare is eh, ggs i feel like ive fought a thousand time this year
And i hate the quests in mory, dont wanna touch shades
Ggs are dogshit, the staff looks cool though it’s like a magic sunlit spear
Slayer tower, and slayer helm
barrows desperately needed drop protection or something, i went over 1k dry for any full set last league
I feel attacked that’s my favorite questline
arent you also on mobile?
And tob really only reasons to take mory.
barrows makes evil eye look tempting
but map can do the agil shortcut right outside
and has more uses
yea
Wait people are actually taking alacrity ?
they did say evil gets a tele straight to chest
I thought that was a troll
so if you wanted to just grind one brother, eye may win
yeah alacrity has so many tps
Chest and up top
alactiry does win out otherwise tho
ye mb and indeed ty
and barrows is such a small part
i can't justify picking eye just for a barrow set i'll wear one time and throw in the bin
specially if ur sitting in varlamore for a long ass time like i am
Yeah but you get ass drop rate
looks like im just going asgarnia desert wildy
I’m going mory tir and kandarin and i can’t imagine alacrity doing anything for me
yep
is there any benefit in having a zaryte cbow alongside a bbc or just no?
should be fun 😄
uhh, not really?
they're the same speed
I was stupid dry on all drop rate on everything last league
It has a spec lol
spec dump
bolt proc spec dump ig uess
but is the spec even a dps increase?
but what do you even wanna use bolt procs for
yea rubys slap
i mean healing perhaps... rubies are capped at 110 no? Dont i just hit harder normally with the +70%?
They may uncap it
Sapphires heal prayer lol
oeh okay
id get it eventually
no need to rush it
youll be nuking with the bbc anyways
and healing every time you shoot
good to know
good shouts on ZCB, havent played in a long time. Still keep up to date with the game tho
still be doing nex for the vambs anyway, so you can always play around with it
and odium ward is a solid shield for it
Oh fair point
can decide yourself with nothing to lose
Forgot about those shields
watch me get full torva before the vambs and zcb
ye, great early to mid game range/mage offhands
Das my buddy is going wildy desert and mory for full torva with drygore max accuracy
XD i've somehow gotten the nihil before vambs or any torva piece every league so far
There’s a perk to increase ranged strength by 80 percent of melee strength lol
throw/melee hybrid does sound pretty fun
last leagues i went mage, i had 5 eternal gems and 0 hearts... broke my non existant heart
i wish they made tonalztics a proper dps option though
i love the things
but they so bad
Perma we waiting on that for main game too lmao
What is my purpose ? Uhhh you spec maiden and sit in the inventory for the rest of the raid
and never even see the light of day anywhere else
They are actually good for large scale olm though
Yeah, damn shame.
I am so ready to start mage off with blue moon
asgarnia wildy desert unlock order would most likely be argarnia or wildy first right? I guess Asgarnia?
Oh dude I’m going straight mage all the way this league idc if I’m gonna have a 10 min sol, i will dodge like a mfer
lol
desert wouldn't be bad with tempoross and GoTR tbh
You doing ancients mage or surge ?
but equipment wise, probably asgarnia yea
then wildy finish with desert if you're just gonna push by doing combat
kree with a sunlight crossbow would probably be a hell of an easy start
Void and chins too
well, "start" likeyl want T4 before erally going for the loot grinds
but that should be early enough, especially if you grind out the sunlight
yea, void for sure
void sunlight with a crossbow tree probably gonna melt gwd
im still doubting about T8 relic the rest ive got figured out now. Any inputs (also regarding 'my' build)
Send me your build ?
minon will be easy to upgrade in wildy ,and is a good steady dps
it'll also be nice since you'll be using a slower weapon
having faster damage ticks going off from him
Both depends on need.
executioner axe is 100% up to you, i never like the thing
so i'm biased against it
and flask is ... meh, idk, if you think you need it go for it?
T8 is like minion for steady dps, throw axe for mvp on normal raids and flask seems like a noob trap
Just send to me on discord personally
one thing to note though
^
What’s the deal with flask regen ?
10+ damage hits reduce it by a tick, and it stacks (do a 40, reduce by 4 ticks)
loses a tick of cd per 10 hit
so crossbow probably hitting 100+ damage every 5 ticks, is 6 second reduced cooldown every hit
it's still a 3 minute cd though, so it's not like it'd be that fast
Yah but flash is still a long cd where minion has constant uptime and picks shit up for you
and idk the use honeslty besides massive AoE, dont need the spec or the heal
And I’m lazy
yep, minion is looking like a very friendly pick
he picks up noted stuff like bones too, if you go transmute that's easy 50mil prayer
Minion the play
Honestly want minion more for the pick up than for the damage lol
I am also taking transmute lol. Don’t know what i wanna reload though.
Sustinence and culling apree
Sustenance ? wtf is that lol
infinite food
Yeah i had it last league i think
That was bankers not
Wasn’t a fan but it was cool for megascales
little better now, better than gridmaster too
since you can use it with karambwan+angler
So you can have a single shark and karam and forever food
^
That’s actually neat
if transmute you dont need zeah for anglers, so you get some pretty good use out of it
Ez inferno, ez colo
isnt the perma food just giga bait?
I didn’t think about that. One guthix rest and just infinite tick eats
i have a bbc i heal more than i do whilst eating
Until you cant hit.
do not take that
The only relic I’m actually hating on this league is barb gathering i just think it’s kinda goofy
i roll double accuracy with the crossbow...
just pick something you feel you're lacking on for skill levels or something
or grimoire for rigour? XD
And only heal off one hit
grimoire for rigor indeed and culing spree
Perma are you secretly reading my builds lol
ye that's probably the way to go
i mean it's a pretty small tree, there's only so many ways to really build 😛
:p that being said
Buddy of mine said he wanted to go natures recurve but now pacts seems crazy underwhelming no?
bow looks fine
far more variety than previous leagues from what i've seen about them
the biggest iffy bit with them is the power being tied to praying right
Also is range the only combat that can’t benefit from the overheal nodes or am i reading incorrectly ?
if he's good with pray switching, or wants to learn to get good with it, it's probably a good pick
as it would incentivise getting better
no? You gain 1 ranged str per 10 diff of your max hp (works for overhealing too)
Wouldn’t that be just dh bombing with a bow ? Or am i too tired to read
you can technically grab the "gain 2 hp and 2 prayer when being hit for 0" node as any combat style
it's distance from max hp
so overheal also counts
188/99 would e 8 range str
So that’s what 8 range
no if you are 150 hp you gain 5 range str
Yeah
so if you're bow, and good with pray switches, you get the damage bonuses from the master nodes, as well as the overheal boost
Nah i just think that’s a waste for like 8 range strength ain’t that like +2 or does it scale ?
(assuming being hit for 0 while praying vs a hit counts for the heal)
i mean for 1 point it's good
not going out of your way on the tree
I'm guessing not but, anybody in here planning the 200m all?
unless you mean all the overheal in general
imma leave for a bit thx for the talk guys, ttyl 🙂
later
I mean getting hit 0s 2hp at a time is a long way up if you’re takin all three nodes
like just to do it? there's no task for it
Guess it does prayer as well but
yea, the range one does count the other way too though, so if you're hurtin it's a minor damage boost as well
it's probably still more value than a regular +1% range damage node
I’m just honestly disappointed with the range echoes besides the bbc. Feel like that’s jagex being lazy.
bow feels ok, i'm not gonna diss any speed bonus
thrown feels lackluster as hell though
kinda cool as a hybrid choice for melee tank sure
it's like they figure last league dart tank was brokenly OP so this time it has to be the bottom choice? :/
If you specced into dragon thrown knives and max resource regen with max echoes and just be speccin all the time that could be cool but that forces zeah
Yeah the infamous “range hits never miss”
Meanwhile melee was fucking crazy with scythe and the 8 echoes coming out that was mad cool
honestly as long as there's no goof like the slayer relic last league it all looks great
I didn’t get to mage yet for leagues this will be my first one
just varying levels of great
Farming relic looks appealing as hell with them adding the mushroom
Not instafarm though, i had that that league that was cracked
I spent 3 hours in the farming guild just planting shit
interesting that they nerfed the farming one but not forager
though i guess farming is more side-grade since it's 2 relics in 1
idk
See but for me in particular this league i wouldn’t take forager because our first node is gonna boost me the same as an imbued heart even if i had access to ancient brews so like…. Fuck herb imma just smuggle pots out of tob like i do on main game lol
Yeah there’s herb tasks but woodsman provides seeds
Which makes me rethink natures accord lol
True i am goin transmute anyway for prayer and the other shit
I am not going farm relic
Same i think i have the pick larcenist
I just dont think its necessary. Ill get plenty of herbs
What’s the other choice again
The slaying one
?
It’s not even like you’re constantly on task like last league lol and i have to do slayer anyway
Soul harvest other t5
Why soul harvest ?
Oh i didn’t know people actually going for 50m that sounds insane but im sure there’s people out there willing to do 200m all
Big task points
If youre going 200m all you gotta be going flow state no?
200m hunter gunna be aids
probably not lol
No flow state is bait sadly. The maths just doesn't maths.
I don’t think so? Flow state is slower than sweaty methods
not really, x32 is 5m xp an hour off purely the rumors
or i can do fletching
0 time
rumors are my chill watch a show activity though so
and i actually like moonlight antelopes as content
So 40 hours of hunter rumors?
Woodsman is gonna be crazy early points with fletching
this doesnt add in x32 on the antelopes
which is hard to calc
but each antelope is 14k at x16
15 per rumor if you go worst case dry
100% faster pitfall speed
and you can keep all of them trapped
ill test it out to 50m and if it sucks swap to fletching
Im just gunna do larc and get thieving
but 200m hunter is 50m prayer in blessed shards and like 11m raw cash
True
But im gunna have plenty of bones to transmute
Wines im gunna have to figure out
899 rumors at x16 from 99 -200m
and each master rumor can be done in about 1 minute
since you arent leaving the basement
and it always antelope
so 200m in roughly 15 hours
can you force that with all 3 regions
does reverse transmute on air runes give you noted or unnoted p ess?
noted
I swear its the most asked question in here
damn thats a major L for transmute
are any high level altars right next to someone you can sell to and unnote
Kandarin has zmi
they are really gonna make us take kandarin haha
told myself i had inflated my last toad ever but maybe not
i know we are getting abyss access, but does that somehow include abyss runecrafting>?
Wildy only
i thought we had abyss for rc? since everyone gets abyss?
the only way to get to the rc abyss place is through the wildy mage right?
and u dont have edge
there are other abyss areas accessible through fairy rings, those are what you have access to
can get a whip there
what is the likelyhood that some fo the splash nodes would work if u aggro a abyssal creature and then attack a leech next to it and splash dmg and get whip without slayer
or thorns etc
does that work with things like baraage in the main game?
heres what 200m rumors gets you at only 899 rumors needed for 200m starting level 99 - 200m
it probably wont work with thorns or split attackjs then
do we have a start time?
so 200m hunter solves hunter 50m, prayer almost to 50m, herblore halfway to 50m, fletching (kekw) cooking(50m) and half of 99 con
not time just day
gosh
man im loving the 200m hunter idea looking at how good the rumors loot is going to be
for not that much time investment
Have they shown what the Demonic Pact trophies look like by chance?
and solves my herblore
would probably plan on more time spent doing hunter than otherwise with how strong sunlight cbow would be for a starter weapon, probably quite a lot of people gonna go for that
yeah sunlight crossbow go brr
not just the early birbs
and the bolts are super easy to get
yea
and rumors is easy early cash
like woodsman + varlamore is a goated start
it seems like the dps calc gets a bit confused about ice barrage
how so?
wanted to compare water surge ancestral to ice barrage virtus, the latter should obviously be stronger right
depends? shadowflame gives water surge a 40% straight dps boost
ice counts as water though
shadowflame gives standard spellbook the extra hit
aaahhh
your ice barrage is still not a standard spell
that's dumb
i mean it's an AoE option still
aoe vs single basically
wel,l aoe+freeze
a closer comparison for actual numbers might be accursed scept in wildy with ice barrage vs shadowflame water surge... anywhere
as far as damage potential goes
hmmmm
that does put a bit of a dampener on desert as one of my picks
but there's really no good options
outside of the wildy thing, ancients are going to be more utility over damage this league
and surge's gonna be nutty damage
i don't want mory and wildy
i'm picking kourend and kandarin
asgarnia is lame
tirannwn kinda has nothing for me because i'm not using crystal armor or picking the thieving relic
so its really desert or fremmy
what does a humble water mage want more
I'm wondering the same for a third region. Kandarin seems like a must for mage builds. Kourend just feels right

Maybe I'll go wildy again 🤣
all other things being equal, water surge does still win out
and even more so outside of the wildy
what the heck are those numbers
max hit, expected hit, damage per second, average time to kill, accuracy
not like that
and the mob tested is chaos elemental
where's the 50 dps coming from
idk what gear hes got
accuracy times expected hit divided by tick rate of attack
That scritics vid?
that was full virtus+occult, confliction/avernics and wildy cape, then just swapping virtus for ancestral and the accursed scepter for shadowflame, same tree
build on my end is 23 so i must be doing something wrong
^
i also had slay task checked, which may or may not count, but i was just going for a theoretical maxhit there
saturated heart might be nice to have
hmmm
i guess not right at the start of a fight, but for the vast majority of one
saturated would be like another +3 mage
funny thing with the devils element+shadowflame combo
the higher the mobs general weakness is, the better the damage XD
so chaos ele having a higher general weakness, still doing less damage than on zuk with his 40% water weak
112 maxhit on zuk
tier 5 still crazy man guess reloading that
here is a build I havent seen anyone talking about. The idea is you go fremmy desert, and get virtus, magus ring, shadow sceptre. max defence afk shadow mage. hitting through everything with stat drain and prayer pen
have been heavily considerin earth instead of air
but if i wanna do it like that i need like... KFA or something?
which i dont wanna do
but yea, was lookin at shadow barrage, looks real fun with the major stat drains
My main will be melee and alt mage. But i may go DFM for the mage. either go burning blood mage with bloodbark. or shadow mage
tried poking around and figuring a bloodfire mage i'd like but just didn't get it
if the fire bounce for blood barrage counts the aoe in every bounce tho that'd be hilarious for AoE
earth feels like they looked at rs3 cryptbloom and wanted to 1up it
hah
and thne you throw thorns in the mix and it just goes crazy
yea, earth looks like a really nice tank option
I like to build off the beaten path for my alt. I think an ancient mage build would be really sick
cryptbloom is actually really weird because you don't even use shadow spells even though it makes you take less damage on paper
blood barrage sustain too good to pass up
is the main reason i ended up deciding on wildy for my mage, just because smoke barrage has wild potential in wildy
read the 3 piece bonus https://i.imgur.com/PN8iIrL.png
shadow counts as earth by default in rs3 by the way
even with that, blood barrage is still better
its so funny
how do you figure?
smoke gets regen bonus from fire runes
idk much about rs3. but shadow tank sounds cool
so extra damage bonus from that
plus the accursed scepter
should see some 125+'s on some of the wildy bosses
well.. not "some", constant 125+'s
you'll be the first person to have ever cast smoke barrage if you do that
Anyone know what time on Wednesday that leagues worlds will be up?
pretty cool. I havent been building all the way out personally. I look at 8/10/22 point builds
planning on having blowpipe swap occasionally? or what
my blindbag build is gonna be WZM. and im gonna hunt the spider pets
going from air to fire in the pacts also feels wasteful somehow
like i'm looking at the connections and going 2 capstones over is awful
goals! sounds fun
Permachill are you a real person you’re always here haha
full 40 maybe much yeah, but i know order mostly to get
if you're not planning on having blowpipe for swap or something the thrown capstones don't actualyl do anything for the melee ranged echoes (nor the ranged str with thrown weapon)
gonno have blowpipe cus tir yea
probably for chinning
also chinning
fair
at first thats what i did in my blindbag build too
but i decided to go for more melee options instead of deeper into the ranged tree
somewhat same here, though I did keep the power staff perks
1tick staff for low investment is funny lol
also crystal armour will buff it
^
if i switch points around for any range weapon i'd probably just go for bow speed
similar reasons, if i'm in crystal anyway
wonder if im making mistake by not taking any prayer pen
why not just use bowfa for swap
What’s Tiranwann good for? Don’t see the appeal
naw dont really need it
nothings praying melee anyway
crystal armor gives its set bonus to all melee weapons, and to power staves
well you taking kourend actually
it also gets 2% magic damage and +20 magic acc per piece with blessing on (for total of +20 instead of -40)
idk if olm mage hand and head are praying or just dmg reduction or high defense
i think i'll go pray pen for mid game and respec out of it later
saw something saying it may be +40 per piece?
for both hunlef and the gorillas
its 20
i thinkt hey were just talkin about how it'd be nice if it was
Crystal armour
ah ohwell
true gorrilla
zenyte grind with prayer pen is so , so much more relaxing
zenytes are affected by the 5x right?
yea
only a 1 in 60 then
definitely, prif has basically nothing if not for the echo
most of the stuff specifically from prif also requires other zones
althought my build doesnt even use zenytes so i dont need any except for the task
it's almost entirely if you ilke CG, or wanna push a few specific builds to higher damage
just need the 1
i need to buff blindbag lol
(or really really wana get smithing and not do blast furnace or something)
hotfoot gonna carry me on that
taking larceny is hella justified if u taking mory and tir
for sure
i need to reload to tier 5 tho cus soulharvest is like only RC solve that doesnt involve running
larcenist is already really good, having elves and vampyres makes it basically a no-brainer to take
yea, gotta grind RC a bit, but i can live with that in mory
huh, was just thinking about tools and realized, most regions don't have access to dragon tools
barb does fix that 😄
Ehm was double checking, it had elite void not normal. With normal it seems same ish (but slightly worse Def)
luckily i can get pick from calphite queen and axe from windertodt with my regions
although flow state technically fixes that too
but that was a fluke, i wasn't even thinking about it
but i think base crystal + 50% on fail is better than 2t
im still unsure between bell and transmute
idk, i'd rather go with barb than flowstate tbh
yep
apparently bell gives u fletching exp not con
?
making planks?
Yeah but fetch is hella easy
And yes planks is fetching xp
that's bizarre
yeah fletch is easy i want it to do con exp lol
Ah yup good catch
oh, sure enough, the wiki says fletching xp for planks
so i kinda have all the exp gains from bell solved
that was probably the only reason i had left for considering it
Still tho you made up my mind for asgarnia 🙂
why would it be construction, making planks in main game doesnt give construction
i mean it's still con xp from getting the planks to use i guess
doesnt give fletching either tbf
honestly that's tolerable because at least it makes planks that help with construction
well it doesn't give anyx p at all XD
exactly
i mean it doesnt give exp at all
ye
Altho prayer pen for ToA would be cool but should just work out anyway
it implies that the butler doesn't take the logs to a sawmill
you arent building anything when you are making planks though fletching makes more sense
he hand fletches them into planks
prayer pen definitely a solid boon for toa yea
Currently I think I have 15% but idk how to up it yet
but you do gain construction xp when you make stuff with a saw!
I mean spent more points Hurdur but what to cut 😂
yeah buit making planks is like shaping wood which is definitively fletching (in this game)
arguing about the real important issues here
But ill likely run DUOs with a friend who is mage
honestly, i'm fine with butler giving fletch xp, it lets me ignore fletching
i was taking woodsman
ah
fair enough, if not doing woodsman being ablet o ignore it is nice
though it's never been a particularly grindy skill
im just taking transmute, seems like a better solve for most things, but bell is a must take like endless harvest for people who cant play much
what does transmute solve again?
basically everything
wrath runes, tokkul(onyx's) crafting, prayer
having ultra compost if you dont take the farming relic
alawys having magic seeds
it does almost everything, but specialized relics are still better solves for their respected skill
always having highest herb seed, always having snape seeds
yea
if you're mory it gives you redwood pyre logs
cash in iron to runite ore
extended antifires if you're not fremm
anglers if you'er not zeah
it does a lot
its like 70% of the way there for almost every skill, but other relics that focus in on less skills are like 120% of the way there
yeah the seed transmute will be nice
the only skill transmute would help me on with my setup is farming
its a catch all
ill proly do this then
yea if it doesn't really help with anything you need, clues is probably a solid general pick
grimoire over culling
especially if you just dont like doing clues, and you wanna get the points from 100/75 caskets
whatcha getting grimoire for?
im not taking kanderin i need piety for melee build
ah
eh, not in raids
only if on task though
against slayer specfically i guess
also i get slayer helm with mory anyway
culling lets you more or less chose your task
if they're melee, they're probably mory/prif
but yea i get the point of not bothering with cull
meh
culling lets you wear crystal helm
but cull+crystal armor+piety on task will be fun
for the bosses taht it does work on
grim lets me avoid whole area
what's your 3rd region
crystal helm plus task is significantly better than peity, but again if your main focus is tob then it doesnt do anythign there
the one you're getting from skipping kandarin
was thinking kourend, if only cus its yama league
fair
mory/prif also lets you pivot into a thorns build late game if you wanna try it
yea kourend was tempting just for the league theme, and fero gloves would actually help damage
^^
but i dont wanna do both raids
i'm SO glad confliction are in varlamore
u can do like bajilion people cox tho right?
yea, varlamore is a huge start area
and every1 gets purple
i feel like i've been sleeping on varlamore's power until this league
it has so much good stuff
it's genuinely a massively strong start zone
varla is kinda a crazy area, i dont even have it unlocked on my main 🤣
the moon sets are huge
doom gets universally bis boots and those dumb gloves that just fix mage
i'm probably gonna be rocking a blue moon spear until i can get myself a dragon hunter wand
nah, dragon hunter wand being a 1h and just having better stats
i don't trust the blue moon spear shills
XD
i'll probably use that wand until i get myself the quadrant
it requires you 1) do a melee boss, and 2) be in melee range
also we getting 5x slayer points, task canceling made easy
you can be at hally range!
why would i do that when i could just pick up a water staff
and hit shit from the next county over
yeah, that's my main issue, doing moons as mage seems rough
well you start with the melee part of the tree
if i can skip straight to dragon hunter wand, that'd be preferred
grab a steel hally from shop
i dun wanna
^
🙁
why would i take melee pacts when i'm not going to do melee
i'm embracing the respecs
it's technically a mage still
it's what i do
i'm the same when i play path of exile, i don't use a "leveling build" i just play my jank ass build in the campaign until it fully functions
you just hit things with your staff too
i dont wanna plan to respec until i got a respec kinda lol
based self-hatred enjoyer
also yeah it means you have to do an echo boss with the wrong style like
come on dude get outta here with that wack shit
if it's for a joke build like blue moon i'll embrace the wack
and then move on back to "proper" mage
in b4 meta mage is blue moon with scythe bag
prif + kand
sadly
that would be so fucked up
it's a weirdly mid weapon to be forced into 2 areas for
oof
it'd be religated to blindbag for pretty much everyone using it anyways
it's the best spec weapon for very specific content that you probably won't have !!
at best, it'd be someone's noxious hally before they have a hally
yea, it's a joke, but i will in fact be starting with it for funsies
if i was going melee i'd probably be doing mory + tir + kand
i was thinking that and thats why i asked lol
MT+anything would be quite strong for melee yea
i can't imagine anyone doing melee will go anything other than mory + tir
Why do I wanna Rc this league
asg gets me some gear swap options for just messing around, and I always like donig nex
so i figure that's my jam
for me, wrath runes because it's my only source
i'm picking up soul harvest with reloaded
^^^^
so that's my RC plan
Money is an issue this league?
nah
No golden god
ngl i havnt thgt about gp
well, i guess you could probably find yourself a path that has trouble with it
you'd have to have a very specific setup to have issues with money
larcenist or transmute both solve money
but abundance covers money, butler covers money, transmute covers money, hotfoot helps with money, larcenist is larcenist
hello friends, just got back my old account, forgot the bank pin (already did the forgot pin, but that takes 3 days!) would it impact my ability to use bank in leagues?
it's seperate
I was thinking construction and mahogany logs
meme choice
It’s expensive no?
huge! thank you
the count guy kept bothering me about it and i just refused to set pin in leagues last time
lol
abundance is very strong for some skills
i have a friend who thinks it's great, i'm not personally sold
yeah, but butler should help with supplementing planks, transmute can print rune ore, larcenist does everything, abundance gives you money for doing literally anything
2x the xp you gain EVER is given as coin
so...
you'll have whatever money you need
i mean yeah it shits out infinite money forever sure, but i meant as an EXP tool
i think it's best for people that are rushing to complete(?)
dunno what the term is
depending on how it works it could be a huge buff for... rc, herb, agi, fletching, and combat
and maybe some other stuff
honestly, the permanent +10 boost lets you probably complete so many tasks early
consider that it's per drop, so if it multiplies properly, doing controlled melee gives you +192 total exp per hit on top of what you get from actually dealing damage
128 if it doesn't respect the 1.5x combat exp
abundance+flow state is probably a decent option, the bonus xp for every action would speed up everything there
tho i guess you'd have to plan your way to t7 rushing everything that isn't those skills
if you wanted to make the most of it
One more critical question I'd be skipping kandarin however isn't kandarin better with normal masori, because there is the 10% bolt spec chance increase from the diary... Idk how that stacks up with a zcb... Or even with the BBC shooting twice
like, i don't agree that it's worth it myself compared to EH, but i can see the logic
2% dps, not worth
Only 2% hmm alright
it's 10% multiplicative, so that 11% onyx goes to 12.1%
it's not a big deal
Ah yes ok
as far as how KCB interacts with (e) bolts idk
i would guess it triggers first then gets split
I want two procs 🙁 but ye
since the weapon does 1 hit and halves it
Should still result in the same
if it was actually a double attack like dark bow it mighta done 2
wait, dark bow is actually a double yea?
oh huh, larcenist makes stealing valuables give 550gp every other tick
that's pretty fast
not just a fake multihit like macas 🙁
I don't know honestly
yeah dark bow actually attacks twice with separate accuracy and damage
mk
so it's effectively a not-very-good 4t weapon instead of an awful 8t weapon like it seems at first glance
if it wasn't 8 freaking ticks for dark bow i'd almost wanna try that out, -1t is not enough
I think i'm going to end up picking clue relic
Now im curious as to what the BBC does
it figures max damage first then splits, then applies water mods to the second hit
so it's all scaled from ranged stats, plus the water pacts
for the other half
I mean you can code that differently still but this is a (logical) way
i like how all of the good names for king's barrage are already taken
lol
kcb is karil's and barraging is ancients
bbc is gonna stick
so you're left with a shitty joke that this server's autobot prevents me from describing
I still wanna know how the melee pact for ranged echoes interacts with multi-hit weapons :/ i'm still gonna follow through with my plan but i'm also gonna assume it just won't work how i want
And im also curious as to how to regen prayer with the BBC build
Since I don't regenerate air runes
am i shooting myself in the foot by going halberd pacts without picking Tirannwn? I'm hoping I can skip straight to noxious halberd
you'll be fine yea
you do get steel hally in varlamore shop
so you start with "something"
just expect to not use a hally for a while in between lol
although honestly steel hally with +21 minimum damage is nothing to sneeze at
I think it will be hard to keep that distance with a lot of bosses though
yea most of them will chase you in some way
even kree sorta wanders over to you
oh, spiritual warriors drop rune hallies
i guess you've got a minor upgrade of an option if you're asg or wildy
or get lucky with a master clue
nvm, if you go conniving clues it's probably pretty likely you get a dragon hally there
whether you can wear it or not idk
Im guessing I wont be able to use a dragon hally from a clue reward without picking Tirannwn?
yea i dont think any other regions autocomplete regicide anyway
due to the quest requirement
yep, tirannwn only
so asg/wildy for a rune hally, then a big long stretch to nox
or just steel to the end if neither of those
probably just wear whatever 2h heavies and do general blindbag until you get to nox and pick up the last few pacts for hally range
If you’re going melee you’ll likely be going Tiran, you can get a rune hally from CG while you do that grind
he was specifically asking about not doing tirr
the context was somebody asking about going halberds WITHOUT T
MZA or something would leave you with a pretty nice endgame setup for a nox hally, just would take a lot to get there
would give you quite a lot to do in the meantime too
if i wasn't so negative about cox i'd probably be doing that
The only real way I could see melee without T being super successful would be like a blind bag/thrown cross build where ranged str was increased by melee str.
crystal does just do more, period, but i you wanna do a sort of tank hybrid torva isn't far behind on damage, and has substantially higher defenses
it's a difference of like 2 dps
🤷 not really all that much to worry about
I don’t think it’s how good it is for melee that makes it so strong. It’s the ability to use other styles and not switch gear. Melee is strong almost everywhere, but in the few places it’s not you can bring a 3-4 way switch and be max dps with another style.
But that’s the beauty of leaves, you can play it however your heart desires
eh, i mean I agree, but i can see why someone would choose to skip it
if you're just looking at pure melee
and just wanna do pure melee
Same. I don’t really love the area, but it’s hard to pass up an easily obtainable BiS tri-brid gear haha
https://dps.osrs.wiki?id=FortuneCrierSkavid the defense difference is pretty major, and the dps loss isn't so bad
I feel like that’s what respecs are for lol. Respec to Hally once you get Hally
Defence won’t matter tho tbh. There’s so much healing across the board
ye, especially for hally range
or if you just throw on a blood fury
for a very minor damage loss
In most gear sets you won’t even lose a max hit with blood fury. And BF can proc from your blind bag procs
am not planning on doing hally though
i'd find it particularly annoying trying to stay at max range
They have plugins for that 🤣
they don't have plugins that stop nex from chasing you down
XD
some bosses would be easy enough to stay at range with sure
I was highly considering max crit wind build but it will be so weak in certain PvM.. melee just seems so volatile and fun
ye, the potential for all the random extra attacks is why i'ma go for it
I will not be going anywhere near Nex.. I’m currently doing my Nex grind in the regular game 🥲
imagine if you could safespot vardo lmfao
