they are pretty afk but you need to keep protect melee up
you get infinite prayer pots in moons of peril area
free
the difference is that it is probably closer to 80k xp/hr vs the like 15k/hr that gemcrab is probably giving you
so this anything else i can get for cloak the scrool and the 2 things at bottom?
do u have 60 range?
nope
yeah thats prob good for now then
you might be better off training other stats if you gotta be fully afk
and saving combat training for active play
i just know that the xp you are gonna get with that gear is gonna be basically nothing
yea but what else could i 100% afk train while im at work
too much clicking between trees
i only rly wanna tab into osrs every like 10mins or 15
gives decent gp/hr at the high levels
star mining is gonna be the only 1 really other than combat
star mining is a good one too
there are a few fishing spots that don't move spots
cave eels i think
also what type of amulet did i buy here i cant find it on the wiki
its just a strngth amulet but trimmed
i can only find https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Amulet_of_strength
cosmetic differnce
aah ok
which teleport relic did you pick? evil eye has huey bank, map of alacrity has nemus retreat bank
mining would be a really good thing to train on the shooting stars though, you are gonna need 70+ mining and the xp isn't that much better actively playing
they are made up of upto 9 layers, and its 7 mins of afk per layer
one click when the layer size shrinks
this should last for a little bit grinding ammonite crabs
js unlocked maple trees or whatever it was named, where can i find them?
or the members ones, do they give more xp?
Wouldn't ammonite crabs give you less experience per hour than the gemstone crab?
shouldnt it be more?
because it doesnt have dmg reduction?
xp reduction*
You waste a significant time between kills doing nothing. Your character only retaliates when hit
The thing is you don't get hit every tick
why my pc ring
the second the crab died i got tagged by the next my char turned to it and hit it on the next attack it could do
You can use runelite to calculate your real combat experience output through the experience tracker if you don't trust what I'm saying
yea i got it open
Make sure to reset it before you start each method and compare!
yea im doing that
Also consider overkill damage which gemcrab will not have
E.g. you hit a crab and its down to 6hp. Your max hit being a 17 or whatever. You lost 11 potential damage when you kill it
Nagua supremacy
How many iron/steel bar I would need to go from level 30 to 50 smithing via giant foundry? I tried to see if I can find a calculation in wiki but I don’t
Use this calculator https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Calculator:Smithing/Giants'_Foundry
Thank you!
someone might be calling
i get basically the same xp on ammonite and or gemstone crab
maple trees are members only, and would give more exp than willows ye
ye i have members where can i find them?
seers village for example
oke thanks ill check in a bit when im home
ok if im active prayer flicking i get 3k more per hour lol
im 5 woodcutting levels away from being able to play wintertodt with my friend

other than lvl50 woodcutting & firemaking is there other requirement for it?
a lot of cakes
are rhey exp? i can just buy em
they are tradeable, up to you
and get 4 pieces of warm clothing
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Wintertodt%2FWarm_clothing
the easiest would be clue hunter outfit pieces
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Clue_hunter_outfit
i can buy those right?
the colored gloves are tradeable, clue hunter outfit isn't
so warm clothes
staff of fire can be bought
yak armour requires 20 defence
im lvl44 defence & melee
Are cakes meta? I just use the potions.
do you know if you can make the potions without having done druidic ritual?
a cake is 3x 35% warmth, potion would be 4x 30% warmth
Hmm, good shout. Probably not?
should I block jungle horrors as a slayer task?
I farmed 14 Moon runs, what next PVM challenge/upgrade should I get to? :}
78 magic for trident of the swamp , see if you can do zulrah
if you mean cave horrors, they have a very low weighting, so there are better blocks
can do vorkath, zulrah, titans, huey, some slayer bosses, what you feel like really
id maybe get 75 mage for titans tho
just makes it easier always maxing with spells on the eles
Thank you all, I noted it down :}
are you using chaeldar?
you can sort their task list by weighting and block the highest ones on the list, jungle horrors are highly weighted, so could be a good block
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Chaeldar
but you'd prioritise the 12 and 11 weightings if any of those you don't like either
like fire giants or dagannoths if you aren't doing the bosses yet
and spiritual creatures
with sawmil vouchers is it per log or per inventory? im wondering why they are like 3k each?
Per log
Theyre 3k each cus ironwoods and rosewoods
ah so they basically can only be used on those
Rosewoods cost 5250gp plus runs for plank make spell
Runes*
oh jeez thats crazy
lol omg i have no idea what ive psent on sailing never paid any attention
crazy expensive
It's cheaper to buy the hull parts off ge than to make them yourself
People make hull parts for afk construction xp
It costs like twice as much as making tables does as far as gp/xp
When is the gathering QOL droppin?
any1 else doing varlamore thieving right now struggling? the plugin is marking all 3 for some reason
Plugins aren’t official content
Just wait for a bug fix
If it’s an active dev they might have done it already
Relaunch the app and check
Prayer and construction left me flat broke...what's my best way to make gold? Jagex wiped me out this morning, including the tip jar of my house
How did you make the gp in the first place 
Got dumb lucky and pk'd an altar bot
Mhhmmm
Well spending all of that on prayer and cons was a choice
Start herb runs, get your other combats up and start bossing
Prayer may have been a mistake, but I don't regret construction. Max house is crazy convenient
Max house that you can get at 83 construction
Cape is worth
Not unless you're an iron or maxed tbh
Teleport tabs already solve the utility of the cape for 99% of players
Maybe 95%
And it's not like you're saving an inventory slot, since you wouldn't want to wear the cape anyways
At least for bossing
Depends how cheap you go
And how long you want to take
Mahogany is like 150 plus mil
Mahogany homes mahogany from 70 to 99 is closer to 50 mil before claiming your rewards
And oak dungeon doors are still like 100 Mil to 99
is the fish barrel necessary? or is it just for convenience?
convenience with a "you're an iron, if you don't hate fishertodt you should do it"
if im reading it correctly its like 28 fish + remaining inventory spaces
yes
it's a free extra full inventory
it is extremely nice QoL for irons who need to keep fish
I see, i just hope i dont get more tackle box dupes then..
especially afk karambwans
I've gotten one tackle box and haven't done a lot of tempoross since
it wears me down personally
I do mass and get bored, I do solo normals and get bored, I do solo firefighting and want to explode
yeah doing solo termpoross is zzzzzzzzzzz
i will just get fishing up without it personally but that's not my recommendation if you don't dislike it
kinda wanna just do fly fishing and drop and never cook stuff
karambwans are unfortunately too important for that
though I just pretend like it's not an issue when I see them drop below the 1k mark
yeah i plan on karambwan for main food source atm
so its a matter of grinding out for qol or just say fk it
bc tomporess solo is so sleepy
if you find mass temp enjoyable or not awful then i'd say just send it
at least when you plan on doing fishing training
I'll get the collection log one day but that day will not be during leagues
My overlays turned vertical. I reset them and now they're horizontal again. How do I switch between vertical and horizontal
alt right click i think
no wait
it's alt something tho
or shift*
shift right click flip infobox should work?
there's some weird bind to do it without the menu but I can't remember what
anyone knows how to fix my character seems to have a shadow that clips under ground? this appeared after today's game update. it's due to the GPU plugin, and the bug also appears using 117 hd
how does defense work in this game? iirc it's a probability based on whether it hits or not dependent on your defense and their attack and the magnitude of said hit is dependent on strength?
i know magic works a bit more different
There’s a formula for defense roll and attack roll
magic level contributes to magic defense too iirc
where is that? couldn't find it
yeah it does
how do I get reinforced goggles in leagues
you don't. you can make the slayer helm without it
If a monster can hit a 50, can always hit you for a 50, but the higher your defence the lower it's chance to hit that 50
nice
The term melee is used to describe the Attack, Strength and Defence skills. Melee is one of the three combat classes in Old School RuneScape. It involves using swords, daggers, and other weapons to damage opponents, as well as wearing heavy armour made from various metals.
Old School RuneScape generally follows the combat triangle, which means...
Somewhere on this page
alright ty, I see magic but I dont see ranged interestingly enough
okay nvm @obsidian pasture ammonite crabs are way better than gemstone crab
i get 24k xp/h on gemstone
and 33k xp/h on ammonite
You can
ye but u dont have to run off the grid to reset the crabs
The downtime in resetting aggression is longer
thats the perk of gemstone
cant i just swap world for that?
No
takes like 156 sec to get aggro again
It is super fast to just click tunnel click boss
^
hopping worlds dont reset aggro
u have to leave its aggro zone so to speak
to make them aggro again
yea i can just walk to 1 spot and back doe
You can yeah
10k less xp per hour doe
But the argument is that it’s less afk
I value afk time more than 10k xp an hour
Otherwise you wouldn’t be doing crabs to begin with
And you’d be ursine chainmacing in wilderness if melee or mm2 tunneling mage / range
i afk on pc at work
Yeah i gotta say gem crab is better for me
do you have better npc highlights?
hi guys - I need a redberry pie but no one is selling one in ge - I want to level up cooking, whats the best way to do it?
I know I need fishes but 1 pike is fucking expensive
Pay extra for the pie
Fish at barbarian village, cook on the fire, sell inventories of cooked fish at the GE if money's that much of an issue
or just drop it
I priced up like 150 already, but I need to level it up anyway
Yeah, instead of paying 143 just try to pay 1k gp
If you're not high enough fishing level for trout and salmon, shrimps and anchovies
[[cooking training]] helps
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Pay-to-play_Cooking_training
yes
does turning it off fix it?
alright I am on my way to net some anchovies
oh man this is so runescape - I searched up I could level up fishing real quick with quest Sea Slug, but it asks for 30 fire making
is there an explanation to why the player model lags behind the true tile?
Cause that's how the code works
I get the "thats how the code works" for the tick system, but it doesn't really make sense that the model lags even further behind your action which is already delayed from the time you click it
I reckon there's three options:
Player lags behind true tile, end of tick matches
Player centers on true tile, mid-tick matches
Player starts on true tile, early-tick matches
And the lag is the only one that works all the time
i think j1mmy mentioned it in a video where its because they try to make ur character look like its traveling instead of teleporting tiles
so therefore it always lags behind
Basically, Jagex was bad at animating and made choices that resulted in the true position being too far from the visual position
Modern animations tend to suffer from the problem less
If they were to remake all of the game's animations they can come up with something that is better and still looks natural
agreed, but doubt it.. i wonder if there will be a plugin like this someday. animation smoothening is a thing so might not be impossible
i feel like jagex
would have to remake the entire game from the ground up
if we want a more modern take on it
Yeah, just because it can happen doesn't mean it is at all likely
its not a big deal true tile saves the day, but could be nice if it was an actual model and not a highlighted tile
even tho we need to use true tile to tell things
the janky mechanic almost feels like part of the experience at this point
dodging the ice swirls in moons was annoying. idk how hard it would feel in CG :D
its easier to eye ball the true tile
to get an idea
are there players who placed echoes rug in the leagues room prior to it being disabled that still have echoes rug down or was it removed for them when it was patched out?
So I beat the first two rfd bosses. How much tougher are the remaining ones? I'm particularly worried about the gelattinoth mother, the dag mother fucked me up pretty bad
theyre not notably harder
cant remember any that were overly difficult. once u know gear/basic strats its pretty easy for most people
the final boss is easier than any of the sub bosses too
I am very slow at switching spells and then my inventory to eat, and oh look she's swapped again...
that fight might be a bit hard mechanically but its really easy to brute force
can always watch a vod of someone fighting mother boss
ye ironman do it with like iban staff and mystic
hey is there a roadmap/guide about things to do before becoming a member? almost fresh (20ish hours) f2p enjoying the game and looking to get a membership, I just want to be "optimal" about it
thnk ull get it from sending
member has massive advantages even early in a account. if ur enjoying game mem is worth getting asap imo
ok so would you recommend just getting it and jumping into the member optimal quests list?
ideally ye
for example u can do waterfall and fight arena quest on members that gets u 1-40 attack and 30+ str
yeah I see, no real point in waiting ig
Is anyone available to help with Shield of Arrav?
s!soa
Raids 4 rewards blog when??
Hi, what do we need to DM about?
Have we gotten any news about osrs HD for mobile?
May want to ask in #mobile-general
yeah so sorry I didnt see this, yeah Im using her and as I saw from youtube jungle horrors seem really slow, theyre all spread out even tho they have like ~50hp
New to RS, would you say the f2p version is enough to form a strong opinion on the game, or is the membership needed?
I mean if you hate f2p you wont like the game
But if you are in between membership does make it a lot better
When Jagex is ready.
its me hex
Oh hey :) I wasn’t sure
Is cg floor damage currently bugged? its currently hitting above 20 close to 30 with t1 armour?
I'm about to do Skotizo for the first time and my friend gave me full justiciars but it's not on here, is it better to use bloodmoon? I figured the tankiness would be good here
I cannot express in words how irrelevant that is. Skotizo is a meme
Sell the Justiciar if he’ll let you lol
The fact that void can be unironically recommended means defence is not necessary
Is it not good I use it a lot?
I have full bloodmoon too of my own
It’s better to kill the enemy faster in this game 97% of the time. You’ll take less damage if you there is no enemy left to kill
It has very niche uses like at rune dragons
Perma sell
Only exception I can think of is moons but you wouldn’t use Justiciar there
That's primarily where I use it, I get chunked to oblivion in moons if I wear bloodmoon
At blood maybe
But yeah tank gear there specifically is good just because of how its designed
But its an exception not a rule
theres alot of noob trap gear
Bandos, arma, acb, bowfa if u arent doing inferno/colo|
etc
My only armour sets are justic and bloodmoon, ranged is karils and bloodbark for mage
Im kinda stuck atm which is why I saw skotizo is easy
Yeah got three of them luckily ty tho
Nice
i would argue blessed dhide>karils for the most part
blood bark is a solid choice
Do I need better mage stats to splash less on muspah? Shit hits 1/4 times
ah i can't post links oops
a friend of mine is doing artefact thieving and his guard lure isn't working, has anyone done artefacts after the weekly update?
99 mage makes a big difference on powered staves but confliction gauntlets are really op too
i doubt ur actually 25% accurate on muspah melee phase tho unless ur doing like a tiny switch
I have the kandarin medium diary done and waterfall quest done. The wiki says you don't need anything to get into the waterfall dungeon but I get to the island where you have to climb down the dead tree and fail. What am I missing?
a rope?
I dont get it haha
honestly
i didnt know that was an option
lol
usually cause i dont go back after the quest
Strangee
For bossing and raids should I invest in anguish first or tormented
torm first if yama tho
yea
Prolly wanna go with doom first after I get synapse
anguish then ofc
you're kinda at the crossroad where its boss dependent
so yea anguish if doom
Yeah idk what I’m grinding for at this point lol
but theyre pretty cheap so whatever u choose u will get the next one pretty soon after
can someone give a pic oif the current endgame progression guide overall
I already did scy+bow rebuild from 2020 just need to get caught up
pls dont link me to 3rd party server or website just a ss would help me immensely
Shit expensive
20mil is pretty quick to make if ur bossing
can you afford bis gear
oathplate, masori, confliction gauntlets are the main new things
they said they came back since 6 years ago and own bow scythe
Toa needa drop me a purp
Is there a way to not get the '' I will kill you for that '' text and the bandit just starts hitting me when black jacking?
if you knock them out fast right before they get up
it stops that from happening
mmm ok ty
u pickpocket twice and then knock them out
shadow, anc, confliction gauntlets, masori and oathplaate should cost like idk 2bil
prob less
ye anc is still bis
[ ] shadow
[ ] conflict
[ ] masori f
[ ] avernics
[ ] elidinis f
[ ] oathplate
[ ] synapse weps
thx
is there no like master image?
There are raid specific images
i used the tob/cox CM "progression" pictures a while back cuz someone shared them to me
i assyme they are completely diff now
i finished those images back then
i heard elder maul cahnged and u need taht too instead of dwh/bgs
?
dwh is the new warhammer
i never understood the « get an alt » thing
its so nice
do u mean elder maul?
for efficient regs
thats pog cuz i loved that item
u do one raid while scouting for another on the alt
so when u finish the raid u can instantly enter and start another one
like while walking between rooms?
no
what downtime is there at cox
you would use ur alt to prep and then exit the raid to scout for another layout
no preps is faster
u dont have to do it w alt
no preps are faster but u still have to scout for a layout
hence the alt being there
cm is same every time still no?
we are talking about regs
i hate that stuff 😅😅
then dont do it
i sure as hell dont lol
but some of my friends do it
yea i never bothered w alts
so its nice chaining b2b2b2b2b raids
hopefully they change cox
to have tob board + layout selector or some shit
i dont think scouting layouts is engaging gameplay
personally...
if u have a good team you can pretty comfortably noprep any scout thats not just completely dogshit so ur not doing much scouting anyway in low scale regs
like u can take an ice demon raid or vangs or wtv
takes like at most 2 minutes to find a scout thats chill
okay then how about a scaled raid that ur alt preps the pots before scouting
so u can start olm after grabbing pots
sometimes it takes me like a good 12 minutes to find a scout
yea def not for megas or speeds
ive seen scouts take like 15-20 minutes for rec speeds xd
easily
but for like 3+4's you can go on almost anything
how about solos?
solos as well, all layouts are doable
oki
solo scouts differ a bit too. thieving and ice become good puzzles for example
why is ice good?
you can over chop for more pts per hour, its same as over thieving
its comparable to olm PPH
over thieving doesn't take any extra time
unlike kindling stacing
ice is fine tho
ic
still good PPH though
but youre right
also solo the fact that you arent sharing pots with anyone gives you more flexibility on rooms
the only room i ever skip for solo moneys is vangs bc its omega annoying with shadow
when salvaging is it better to drop the salvage or go through it a dock ?
agreed misanga
i would drop it if u want xp
or build the salvaging station
to process it
cant build the station yet, going to just drop 5 levels until i get it i think would be the best way to go about it ?
need to get 55 RC for fremmy exiles I’m 30 atm…is lava runes the quickest way
Yes but most people hate doing lavas
does killing the grotesque guardians count 2 kc off slayer task or 1?
depends if you've got the point rewards to enable 2kc or 1kc
you'll have to check with a slayer master
Correct
I think Levi is bugged? lol
nope it did not! sorry for the late reply. as of rn, the only fix i found is turning off GPU
several people have posted it as an issue on the github for it, so hopefully someone picks it up and fixes it soon
what is the biggest / best next gear upgrade? (not fire cape)
zombie axe / zamorakian hasta / abyssal whip
infernal cape 😂
fire cape tbh like
that really is whats left
since u got everything else done xD
If you mean neitiznot faceguard, later
u can get it later but yea
get serp helm instead of faceguard
u do it way later
fury -> torture is +2 str bonus for -18m
nothing -> fire cape is +4 str for FREE @primal flint
gloves and boots? also later or
fire cape is what u need and when u get it ur gonna wonder why u put it off
healers
both fine for now, smaller upgrades than fury -> torture yeah
Does anybody know the tick speed of stealing valuables?
4 ticks I believe which equates to 2.4 seconds
before i waste my time here, with mage training arena, im trhign t unlock the peaches, if i leav ean come back all my points for each game just stay there right?
like i can tlose the points
without spending
correct
god itd be awful if u did
wouldnt be good, but i did my farm for peaches and rune pouch in 1 long session
why's the karambwan fishing tile still highlighted even when I've stopped fishing? it's making my idle notifier not work
and even when I leave and come back, it's still red
There are some odd interactions with game objects today. Example 2 ticking trees you won't face the tree when interacting. Likely similar with this fishing interaction for what triggers the plugins functionalities. (Just speculation)
thank you
guessing the only thing I can do is wait it out 😔
I'm unable to lure the East guard in Port Piscarilius when stealing artefacts. I followed the wiki method, and a guide I saw on Youtube. I swear it worked last night. I recorded my attempt. The guard should be facing the water at the end. Am I doing anything wrong?:
i need help with construction leveling specifically with myth cape. It is so fuckin common that you don't get a chance to remove the myth cape before the demon butler shoves planks up your 4ss and makes it so you now have a full inventory, cannot withdraw the myth cape from the wall, cannot drop planks to the ground. wtf can i do to fix this..
- Talk to the demon butler when you have less items in your invent.
- Do something that doesn't require an extra item.
- Use the human butler that gives 20 items
can you manipulate where the demon butler spawns so he always comes from the same exact tile
Not that I know of.
are STASH Units worth it for clue scrolls?
It makes you be able to go from one clue to another. It also gives con XP. 66,650 for everything.
78m gp for 66k xp 😭
You can get almost half for like 4.2m. The majority of the cost (almost 74m) is in the master clues.
On mobile, how does editing ground items work? I see how it can change the tier of stuff but as soon as I take off edit mode, then absolutely nothing shows?
currently in neypotzli in the league and for whichever reason my cooking and herblore actions aren't being done automatically like they do in the main game
is there a setting i missed somewhere to toggle it?
What do you mean by automatically
normally when i click the stove or sapling i only need to click it once and it'll cook/collect until i click off
in the league i have to click the stove for every lizard i have, and the sapling for every grub i collect
Hm ya thats weird
Could that be related to the karambwan/WC issue?
What relics do you have
abundance, woodsman, bank heist, conniving clues
If we can't figure it out, #leagues-general might be able to.
how long after you key in your bank pin do you need to key in again?
Should be only after you log out. You can set it to only activate 5 minutes after logging out.
Hi does anyone know what the name of OST real quick, I know it's a stupid question but I gotta make this video thanks
i only did the bank pin for more bank space, can i just disable it after and still keep the extra space?
Unlikely. You can buy more at the bank, though.
you mean you can buy more bank space with gp?
Yeah. The initial investment (1m) can be steep but you get 2.5 times the amount (50 vs 20).
how many spaces did setting bank pin give?
20
oh lmao
I believe it is either this or a slightly remixed version of this song
Wow, thanks so much!
Can someone recommend me what equipment should I wear to my first trip to barrows? These are my stats
Air battlestaff, mystics, and a ring of the gods. Barrows gloves too
but my stats are good or i need to level up something?
You shouldn't need to.
why not
Cause you can equip everyting. You need to if you want Bloodbark, though.
A mystic smoke staff should be better though.
nah i am fine with the essential and a good strategy i think i am good
is optimal doom loot to clear level 8 then reset ?
The smoke staff is like 2.25m tho.
brooo, i only got like 5784k in my bank
no
what is most optimal
Air battlestaff it is.
go as deep as possible
wat
ok, the only thing is that, i am going to do that until june
Air because of their elemental weakness.
idk how its diminishing returns, if ur in deep delves for more time per hour its better
you have highest rate at 9 and above
i dont know either, dont understand the system
thats why i asked here to verify what the other chat said
i told them im going to 25
and they said go to 9 then go again
wat
hmmm ok thats fair, but like, with my stats, and the right equipment, how much do you think is gonna cost me to beat the barrows? a lot? or no effor?
theyre wrong
it just makes the chance better until d9 then d10 is same chance as d9
ye
yes
ty
you "gain" the same amount but it doesnt get bigger if it makes sense
ya i was told diminsihng returns
which
seemed wrong
so i asked here
thank goodness lmao
The staff is like 9k. Mystics is like 150k. Ring of the Gods is too expensive so use the Explorer's ring. You can get a unimbued God cape until 75 for the imbued version. It requires a quest in the wildy but the imbued version is worth it.
To upgrade from Arclight to Emberlight you need full charge and tormented synapse.
Full charge = 10,000 charges = 100% infusion
So I can upgrade with:
- 10,000 charges + Synapse
OR - 100% infusion + Synapse
Is this correct?
Or a combination yeah
can be a mix of both as long as equiv to 10k
What happens if my Arclight is 0 charges, 100% infusion and I continue using it?
So, all combined together how much is gonna cost?
Will it act as an Arclight or downgrade to a Dark light?
At that point if I use a synapse on it will it upgrade to Ember?
yes
Not sure on specifics. Are you doing herb and birdhouse runs?
OK ok gotcha! thank you so much guys!! 😊
I had that exact scenario in fact
if i get a unique at doom, is it better to leave and dip or keep going? does getting a unique and having it saved mess up my odds or no
leave lways
risk it all 
Don't know for now
Both are profitable and give you farming (herbs) or hunter (birdhouses) XP.
well ok, thanks for the information, i will be doing this on june btw, because right now i am pretty stacked up with homework,
That works. This should be everything outside of supplies. Not sure ranged/melee gear. I know you don't need either in midgame gear and a high mage level but I haven't used mystics with 60 mage in a long time if ever.
You could swap the battlestaff out for an Iban's staff for general mage training.
is there a way to darkmode osrs wiki?
top right
can i use that with my actual stats?
and second of all, how much does all of that cost?
bc that looks expensive
any idea how i make this stop? (in case u dont see it, theres those wavey smoke lines)
restarting client didnt work?
do you have a weather plugin?
looks like smoke cave effect
it is. and it wasnt present when i was IN the cave, just when i left lol
I'd relog and see if fix'd
its gone now thank goodness.
thanks.
theres a way to turn that off in cave right? im guessing if i turn it off in cave then it wont follow me out next time (maybe)
you speak with the chap with lung cancer by the entrance and he'll sort you out
hmm it should give me option to turn off smoke clicking on entrance yes?
it does not.
okay its working now. i had to switch worlds. the smoke thing seems to be buggy for me for some reason
needs to be a smoke devil task
provided you have 93 slayer (without boosting), you're also allowed to kill the boss once without a task for the achievement diary
so i can just wander in there for my diary kill?
you might have to talk to the guy outside? but yeah pretty much
whats the name of the purple tome thats equipable?
i tried to search, but i cant find it, so its probally not named a tome haha
[[book of darkness]]?

yess thank you
When I go talk to Jossik I cant find any buy option for the Book of Darkness hmm
did you just finish the quest? I think you have to get one of the other books first, then talk to him again to unlock the zaros book
its been a while since i did it. when i talk to him i get the option to choose one of the gods, but he just says "are you sure??? try again" no matter which option i take
if i have a 10th task at konar and its a task i dont want to do, am i allowed to skip and still get the bonus on the next task?
have you tried choosing the same god twice in a row
I think it's a weird confirmation thing
nice
yeah, skipping doesn't reset your task streak
Can I use VPN to lower my ping to play with friend from NZ?
You should be able to.
The majority of it should be a quest/diary reward or cheap. The book is both as you need to buy four pages.
The only part that's expensive is the mystics. Should be about 140k.
never change lmao
It could, but it would kind of be in spite of the VPN. Your traffic, instead of going directly from your machine to the server, would go from your machine, to the VPN, and then to the server. It's a different route, but it's more steps.
Generally, that would actually increase the overhead and ping.
But it's possible that, for whatever reason, the new route could end up being more efficient even though it's more steps.
I wouldn't consider that particularly likely.
It would be basically accidentally faster. Rule of thumb is it should be slower.
there are some vpns specifically meant for optimizing ping in games
I know a few aus players who use mudfish to get better ping on na servers, don't see why it couldn't work the other way around
how do they work? idk but the difference can be pretty dramatic from what I've seen
i used fast something or gamesomething back in days to optimize latency
but there are probably more suitable stuff around
Okay thanks, I'll see. I'll see if I can find a proper solution.
Tbh it might work cuz now data getting sent from EU to NZ servers?
So lets say for example you go from EU-somewhere-somewhere closer- NZ
Potentionally eu - somewhere ok ping
somewhere to somewhere closer - ok ping
somewhere closer - NZ ok ping
generally looking overall ping ok
I imagine it works somehow like this
Or is there any in the middle server we could pvm together? Like NZ is at end of the world 😂😂
are there any easy and fast clogs in Priffindas?
The crystal grail
Hey just wondering how active is castle wars and pest control?
the green text means i dealt the most damage right?
I thought it meant you did enough to get a participating score
yeah maybe
but whats the red and yellow for then?
idk
It could be like this:
Red = no participation
Yellow = eligible for normal drops
Green = eligible for uniques
Or:
Red = no participation
Yellow = participation if both are yellow
Green = enough participation on its own
Maybe the plugin GitHub page explains the real meaning
Anyone Know what this Plugin is called ?
green = damage above 50 = eligible for unique/pet
yellow = damage above 30 but below 50 = eligible for loot
red = not enough damage
anyone got a good guide for herb runs at any level?
i read the wiki but im more confused than before
video guide or written one
cause im reading this rn an im more confused than before https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Farming_runs#Requirements
so
basically, different quests can unlock more herb patches
or teleportations for easier access to them
thats why that page is so detailed (and overwhelming)
at the beginning, find out what patches you have access to
and how you can get there
if it takes too long to get to (5+ minutes) maybe skip it
then plan out a route.
if you tell me what patches you have access to i can help you plan one
from the wiki page i got these
okay, meaning you have magic secateurs which is good
ectophial access to morytania is quick
civ and run west is bit far but decent
do you have your PoH in Hosidius, or a xerics talisman?
and im magic 60 so i got the tps upto there
my poh is basically the default u get
and no xerics
i read sum abt rimmington being good at the start so i can go to the npc there to unnote my planks
that is true if you plan to focus on construction
hmm ok
so you should do a few more quests for farming
i plan to do construction a bit for that cool jeweler thing in poh
[[farming training]]
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Farming_training
you'll see the quest list above
it helps skip the lower level herbs where you dont make much profit
ideally get to ranarrs
you can do this farming route (herbs only):
- Teleport to Civitas / Hunter's guild (Quetzal whistle) and run to the herb patch to the west of the city.
- Teleport to Seers village and run south east to Catherby patch
- Teleport with Ectophial then run west to Morytania patch.
- Teleport to hosidius with PoH (25 construction and relocating needed) / khardest memoirs and run to Hosidius patch. (later you'll get a xerics talisman hopefully to be even closer)
- Teleport with Ardougne cloak / to Ardougne and run to northern patch.
- Teleport with Explorer's ring (Lumbridge diary) / Falador and run to Falador farm patch.
Assume you haven't unlocked easy access to Weiss, Troll Stronghold or Harmony island.

here's mine. but mine is absolutely not the best lol. woodcutting and farming combined
im strugling a bit with Doom of Mokhaiotl. any tips on gear? what runes should I get also i am missing like ancient godsword or bandos? idk really, just trying to learn it
gear looks fine
the issue would more likely be to do with gameplay than gear at that point
if you can specify what you struggle with, or better yet get a video recording of an attempt
you'd get much better focused advice from people
oh
just wanted to make sure i get the best gear I can so make bank tab
yea issue is idk how i wanna sort my bank
if i wanna use the tabs
or tags
is ancient godsword better?
first time i wanna grind 1 - 8
so noxious isint good for punish?
nox is good for punish too
but if you can spec it with chally it finishes much faster
if you're farming low delves and learning, killing boss faster saves you more hp and time
and hopefully skip orb phase
blowpipe can be okay during car phase tho
is there a tool to make good bank layouts? or is it all down to preference
so if you find yourself struggling with managing health resources and not speccing efficiently offensively with chally, then okay blowpipe might be better.
there's a subreddit for people's banks
you can take inspiration from
there's also video guides on youtube
use bank tabs to sort bank, bank tags in addition to filter for specific activities
My general rule of thumb for bank tabs are:
Runes / Ammo / Teleports --- Gear --- Food/Potions/Herblore ingredients --- Skilling --- Fashion --- Currency / Loot
bank tags can be done by equipping the items and setting up your inventory, then use the auto-layout function from the plugin
it's a small white arrow at the bottom right of the new tab you create
alternatively, you can use the sim online and import
Create, save and share banktag layouts. Import/export, choose thumbnails and edit rows.
bank tags will definitely help you gear and set up for a farm run quicker 
also gave you an example route above
yep saw it ty
i think ill figure out my bank situation a bit
and then see what ill do next
might just do slayer a little if i feel bored
or construction
but i think im too poor to get construction to the level i wanna get it to
there a way to remove all tags from all items no matter what?
cause i had some random tags imported and its a mess rn
ok resetting plugin seemed to have worked
sry im at work so might be late to reply. Yeah reset will clear out all config
also, as a rule of thumb, back up your plugins every once in a while
export it as a .properties file, save it in your google / icloud drive or something
if sht hits the fan with your computer, you don't lose ALL your customisation over the years
i use tabs
its far from optimal, but it works lol
need some advice. these are is my current progress on my main and i just got enough points on pest control for full void. the question is if i should make the effort to get elite void now, including getting 75 thieving and 70 prayer for hard diary, or is it not necessary for me right now
if you want to get PC done and over with then go ahead
I'd leave it for later
elite void is great for certain things
specifically doom, ToB, BA and range training
and vorkath ig
so it depends on what you plan to do after
has anyone finished the imcando hammer and ornate lockbox tasks? the npc next to the forge is missing and the forge cant be interacted with either. this must be a bug, below ice mountain is auto completed so the guy should be there...
id do void as late as possible to take advantage of the CA points
to be fair i am uncertain myself. my main goal right now is the quest cape
think i saw soemthing about that in the leagues discord
one sec
then leave elite void for now you dont need it
i already got the 1250 points
ah
oh lol nvm he is standing somewhere else wtf
well then it doesnt matter at all
where was he
Wanting to start playing the game again after more than a decade - is there any recommended setup before even logging in on a new account? Runelite vs just booting it up from Steam, anything else I need to know (not gameplay related)? Maybe I'll play it on phone as well.
definitely runelite
There's 2 clients you should choose from
Oh damn I just went on the website, they have .AppImage for Linux. Any enhancements or any other software that would make the experience better, or are the settings in there enough?
A free and open-source client for Old School RuneScape.
Download at RuneLite.net
Their Discord server can be found here
I think I'll go the open source way, the "worse" graphics are a bit more desireable to me 😄 And I'd assume it's more mature
is there a way i can pre configure items in bank tag tabs like this?
so i can just left click it when theres items and it doesnt go away
ok nvm it was just buggin
man so rich
im setting up tabs and tag tabs rn
there are many plugins that are useful eventually but youll figure it out along the way, runelite works perfectly fine without anything
The wiki says every 10th, 50th etc Slayer tasks give a bonus. Does this mean 10, 50 etc or 10 , 20 , 30 ,40 give one bonus and the 50th gives a better bonus?
Latter

Ah cool, Thank you both.

im gonna attempt to farm mobs to get the skull sceptre from stronghold security quest now. any tips? I've never been to a dungeon yet im a new player
i brought some cooked meat steaks with me from cows i killed
my combat level is like 56
is that enough?
got 70 strength 40 defense 35 attack
should i use strength to kill the mobs
not even remotely and dying isnt particularly bad in this game
on levels 2 3 4 do they attack you all at once?
if you play for a while you will die a lot
ok
ill try then
thanks
all i need for the rewards is authenticator right
what should i pick fancy or fancier or fighting boots? 😄
i think the fighting boots look best
whatever you feel like
for those rewards you dont even need to fight anything, you can do that at level 3
can i imbue the sceptre with fancier boots? cuz youtube vids say use either fancy or fighting boots, none say fancier boots
i know but i want the skull sceptre too
for achievement or diary
Hey! Can i combine felling axe handle with infernal axe?
bro can i survive and get the parts for skull sceptre in 3rd and 4th level of that stronghold security mission?
i got the two first levels done
two more to go
i only brought cooked meat and it gives 3 health points lol
wont the level 3 and level 4 monsters just kill me with one hit?
or can i run back to a gate before that happens
combat level is 55
im scared of dying in level 3 or level 4
i just got the two first parts for skull sceptre
getting the parts for skull sceptre might be difficult, especially with melee
ankous hit hard
you can safespot ankous but others might aggro onto you
ankous are found on the 4th level
catablons also hit 8s i think? or 9
so meat won't be enough if you plan to stay there for the piece instead of just running through
also, they can lower your stats, so a strength potion can help if you're meleeing
should i move out of there
and level up attack defence more
so i got more combat levels?
that's one way to do it
i currently am one level 2 and got the two parts, need level 3 and 4 parts
how much strength / attack / defense level do u recommend
40 defence lets you wield rune, which is the best option in F2P
40 attack will get you rune scimitar
oh
you'll want rune
try to make some gp to afford runite equipment
[[money making f2p]]
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Money_making_guide/Free-to-play
it'll help you survive much better
I'd focus training your attack to 50
and keep strength ~10 levels above attack/defence
how do i get out of level 2 of that dungeon i am in, do i need to climb up
so once you're 50attack / 60 strength / 50 defence, carry on from there
yes you'll need to return to the start of the maze and climb back up
thx
so 50 attack 50 defence 60 strength
and runite equipment
to get skull sceptre
right?
have a quick read through this list and find something that you have requirements for and isn't too bad to do
make some starter GP, get a full rune armour and scimitar, amulet of strength
and you're golden for F2P
giant frogs is probably better xp
much higher stats
so 50 att 50 def and 60 str and runite equipment then ill get skull sceptre
thanks a lot
Bronze, iron, black, mith, addy, rune :)
rune scimitar provides 44 strength bonus, versus 6 from bronze scimitar
that's more than 7x
you're also more accurate as the slash bonus is higher
so i level attack and defence to 50 then i try to get rune equipment?
i got str at 60 already
you can start using runite tier at 40
so you can already wear rune armour
[[rune armour]]
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Rune_equipment
you need a few more attack levels for rune scimitar. in the meantime, use adamant scimitar.
Also use [[amulet of strength]] in f2p.
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Amulet_of_strength
ill get att and def to 50 and then ill try to get rune equipment
training with higher tier weapon speeds up your xp/h
so I'd get adamant scimitar at the very least before training
ok. wanna tell me where to get it or do i need to research
I assume you're a normal game mode account and not ironman
in which case, everything tradeable can be obtained from the Grand Exchange
[[grand exchange]]
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Grand_Exchange
put a purchase offer
Grand Exchange is a market place between players, basically
you put an offer in to buy/sell and if it matches someone else the trade goes through
it should be pretty self-explanatory but if you got questions don't hesitate to ask

am i doing this right? i clicked on +5% for the price before setting the buy order
im in world 399 on varrock grand exchange
or is +5% button overpay for these two items
idk
do i have to be in the grand exchange now to get these items or will i get them automatically whereever i am
or do i have to collect them?
wait i got it
nevermind
lol
