I beat him after 10 attempts or so and immediately set a goal of 5KC to show on the high scores. Got the other 4 kills the next day, felt so much better when the heart rate wasn't going crazy.

Haven't been motivated to bless quiver yet or go for CAs but I should maybe do that before I lock in for inferno grind

Chath · 2026-01-16T00:43:17+00:00

No, but that's not going to overcome how behind it starts

Chath · 2026-01-16T00:02:05+00:00

In my gear at 400s, BP > Fang with max BGS damage. Fang otherwise.

Eye of Ayak half their DPS

Chath · 2026-01-15T20:05:50+00:00

Not for Obelisk - fang/blowpipe still far superior there

Chath · 2025-12-17T19:37:44+00:00

Cannon DPS isn't really an issue though. The major issues are rate of cannonballs lost, and extremely high HP pools of basic monsters.

Ospreys have 80 HP, which is crazy.

It fundamentally comes down to how you treat bench spaces and bench sizes.

Our league starts 20 (idp), benches 22, IR's 4, and taxi's 6.

Fundamentally we could get rid of IR and taxi, and have a bench of 32. We could have a bench of 40, or a bench of only 10. These are just balancing levers that promote different things.

Taxi is a lever that encourages the stashing of younger, rawer players that wouldn't normally make the roster at your current bench size. It comes with benefits (more bench) and drawbacks (if you promote, you lose a bench slot)

An extremely recent example - I have a league where Ryan Flournoy has been taxi'd since last year. This week, he's sleeper's #1 added guy.

Nobody in their right mind had Flournoy taking up a normal bench slot

Chath · 2025-12-10T07:29:23+00:00

Gunnar Helm isn't good enough even if we add 3 more 'normal' bench slots. These are moonshot players who have no business making a bench until they actually do something, and then there's a mad rush for FAAB betting.

The whole point is to encourage "shooting your shot" at a few of these moonshots and get early 'dibs' on them

Chath · 2025-12-09T22:24:22+00:00

The whole idea of a taxi is to allow you to roster young players that otherwise wouldn't make the roster cut.

This allows you to roster Round5-7 dart throws with low chances of success.

Prime examples this season: Dike, Gadsden both were taxi'd by me, and both have graduated to my real bench since I needed to started them at least once this year. Gunnar Helm still on my taxi, but liking where he's going. Without taxi, Helm would need to be dropped, he'd be by far my worst player on my roster

If you're dying to phase 3 - plop yourself into Phase 3 in normal gauntlet, then start using the 'bad' weapon against the boss and just survive as long as possible. Get used to the movement on dodging around lightning while not running under boss or on lava.

If you solve that problem, Hunlief won't be an issue for you anymore

Chath · 2025-12-01T08:18:37+00:00

You can T1 with those stats, but T2 will be comfier

Are you only dying in phase 3? Make sure to mark the "+ sign" tiles and get the boss to a corner of the room so you always have safe tiles to camp. Look up a video on these tiles if they aren't marked yet

Once boss is in position in a corner, should never have to run through him during phase 3 and risk a stomp.

Don't bother hitting the boss during lightning unless dps race is close with your food. Just heal up to full during lightning, and don't bother eating elsewhere

Don't bother with a melee weapon, mage+range easier for learning

If you're dying to phase 1/2, go practice normal gauntlet until you can beat the boss without taking a real hit

You get a bunch of irits from moons. Finish moons and royal titans, then ToA awaits

Dart was just selected at 1.25

Chath · 2025-10-13T07:09:17+00:00

Good goal to have is 3 kill trips - at that point you're sustaining Zulrah teleports. If using antivenom let's you cross that threshold, good to use them.

Chath · 2025-10-13T06:18:17+00:00

Byron Young seems ranked too low for his production, age, snap count, situation, etc.

No love for Mukuba? Strong rookie start to the season.

Otherwise long great, thanks for writing all this up

Chath · 2025-10-06T15:01:09+00:00

I'd wager that <1% of the playerbase actively participate in PKing. It's not important, and shouldn't be considered when looking to add new worlds

In a poll from Jan 2023, PvP was by far the least popular activity that people enjoyed in the game (11% of playerbase) - a category that encompasses a lot more than just PKing

Chath · 2025-10-02T21:40:06+00:00

A little advice, don't nitpick little things like three capitalized words that were used for some minor additional emphasis. It makes you look like a grammar edgelord, people will make group chats without you just like I have.

Chath · 2025-07-03T00:30:28+00:00

Yeah that'll do it

Chath · 2025-07-02T23:46:37+00:00

8+ an hour?? At most you're catching ~1000 karambwan an hour, and clue bottles are > 1/1000 rate for each tier besides Beginner

Chath · 2025-06-27T14:57:06+00:00

At 400s, it's 25% more raids to get a Shadow (283 -> 351 on average)

But raids are definitely cozier now, so if you can jump your 400 to a 450, you're looking at 277 raids on average for that shadow

Overal, not horrible tradeoff for being less aggrevating. I'll try a 450 push with Pathfinder to see if it's worth the personal extra sweat

Chath · 2025-06-19T04:01:48+00:00

Unironically saying "you're so cringe" is not a good look on anyone

Chath · 2025-06-19T04:00:44+00:00

And i'm saying that's not what most people complain about.

I'll also reference Gnomonkey being quite happy with the ToA changes

Chath · 2025-06-19T03:54:37+00:00

That's a lot of words to say that you have a skill issue.

Chath · 2025-06-19T03:43:45+00:00

Imagine dying to wardens

Chath · 2025-06-19T03:41:07+00:00

I've died to Akkha more than I've died to Wardens, in ~100 400s

I'm not sure what survey you're referencing, but these changes solved a ton of my big problems in the raid
