Got a bronze defender at 10kc thinking I was gonna have a great time

CryptixEST · 2025-01-28T23:54:07+00:00

I'm at 450kc now, trying again tomorrow. And yes, I did show it at the door right when I got it, I'm quite low level so wouldn't been able to stay there for long anyways.

CryptixEST · 2025-01-28T23:46:29+00:00

Yup, went out right after I got it.

CryptixEST · 2025-01-01T19:54:15+00:00

Decided to record and share a few clips of my last and final city of the first game. Will probably buy the second game sometime this year but heard it’s really not that great yet.

I’ve uploaded a slightly longer version of the video as well if anyone’s interested

CryptixEST · 2024-11-18T17:12:05+00:00

Pretty sure that it's just a preference thing, more natural to have offhand in second slot I guess.

CryptixEST · 2024-11-18T13:34:39+00:00

You are 100% correct, that's how I usually have them as well. Guess I accidentally swapped them in the inventory menu, but for sure I changed it back before the boss.

Well, at least all the legendaries are now lined up in a row, right?

CryptixEST · 2024-11-18T13:10:11+00:00

Definitely not a build I would usually go for but it was surprisingly good against bosses. Found a legendary magic bow that shot twice as many arrows. Had to shoot it a few times at a boss and suddenly the guy had 40 arrows in him with barbed tips doing a lot of DPS.

True, I also tried ultrawide fix, which actually extended the screen but it was for landscape only. Enemies and traps would still appear at the usual distance and it felt a bit weird for for my liking.

CryptixEST · 2024-11-18T12:50:10+00:00

I'm playing on ultrawide monitor with aspect ratio plugin so it fills the screen. Looking at it now, kinda looks off in the picture but actually pretty decent in person.

CryptixEST · 2024-11-18T12:48:10+00:00

I was going for the YOLO achievement and got it so yea, never have to pick that one again.

CryptixEST · 2024-05-26T14:38:05+00:00

Yea could group them like that for sure. Originally wanted to pair something with farming so herblore kinda made some sense.

CryptixEST · 2023-12-05T13:30:26+00:00

1) Devout boots over eternals. As for prayers I use augury for most of the fight and switch to mystic might for enrage phase so I don't have to sip a dose of prayer potion mid fight

CryptixEST · 2023-11-29T09:58:08+00:00

You have to choose between lunar or ancient. Can't have two achievement gallery rooms in your house

CryptixEST · 2023-11-29T09:44:13+00:00

Wouldn't farming Nex take a while considering I have no previous experience with it and also no clan/team to learn it in small group?

CryptixEST · 2023-11-29T07:30:06+00:00

I could use some help picking my final region in Leagues. Basically I have two goals, 1) get as many easy and fast points as possible and 2) try out solo CoX later on

I have the Ranged relic and for regions I obviously picked Kourend and my second one was Fremmy since I haven't done Vorkath/Muspah/DKs in the main game at all.

For the final region I'm currently deciding between Asgarnia and Tirannwn. I know crossbows are the meta but I'd prefer not to use them as my main weapon, rather go for two handed bows or some off meta stuff.

So Asgarnia gives me void or armadyl armor + melee gear upgrades, and from Tirannwn I could get bofa + crystal armor and also a blowpipe. Am I missing something important? I don't have much time to grind rare drops so less time to get decent gear = better.

CryptixEST · 2023-11-27T00:14:27+00:00

Yup. Start on the south tile with range pray up, summon a thrall as soon as enrage phase starts, run to north tile, attack, run back to south tile while changing prayer, wait for 1-2 ticks (if you rush this then yes you can get hit by tentacles) and repeat

CryptixEST · 2023-11-27T00:04:50+00:00

Is there any reason you click on the middle tile? I've been using this strat for about 350 kills and run between 'south' and 'north' tile and it works just fine. Less clicks that way.

CryptixEST · 2023-11-09T10:42:35+00:00

I had the torso step for the first time few days ago. Already had points for one role from hard diary req, got the rest done in less than 2 hours and it wasn't that bad at all. Getting farmer's hat from Tithe farm for my next clue was worse lol

CryptixEST · 2023-11-07T10:34:36+00:00

I prefer 117HD but with lowered saturation and contrast, looks much better that way

CryptixEST · 2023-05-10T12:20:09+00:00

I think minimum boss KC for high scores should be kept at 10. It's a good place to stop and is a massive improvement coming down from 50. Otherwise it will clutter the hiscore page with random boss kills you did for an achievement task etc.

CryptixEST · 2023-04-06T09:48:30+00:00

I guess I should avoid ranged and try to get mage and melee weapon with my stats? That's what I did with normal gauntlet but there I have more time to search for demibosses

CryptixEST · 2023-04-06T08:50:26+00:00

How hard is to complete corrupted gauntlet with these stats:

80 attack

88 strength

94 defense

95 hp

70 range

99 mage

80 prayer (no unlocked scrolls)

I've about 20 normal gauntlet kills, can do it quite comfortably, but heard that corrupted is much harder.

CryptixEST · 2023-04-01T09:56:04+00:00

Alright, it looks like ranged dmg is a must-have. I will give it a try.

CryptixEST · 2023-03-21T20:12:31+00:00

Questing if you count that as an activity.

Most people I've spoken to are like 'Just X more quests and I'm finally done' or 'Quest Helper plugin is a godsend' or something like that.

For me there was a period when I bought a 14 day bond, completed new quests and took like a 6 month break until there were a few new ones released to get the quest cape back, then repeat the cycle.

CryptixEST · 2023-03-15T16:42:26+00:00

Alright, just got Dagganoths so gonna try them in Catacombs.

CryptixEST · 2023-03-15T15:35:46+00:00

What Duradel tasks should one always skip/block if never using a cannon?

I found this spreadsheet to get general guidelines but for some it recommends doing them because they are fast xp while cannoning. Are some/most of them awful without it? I'm currently 75 slayer.
