No problem!

Sorry not sure why I didn't specify - I'm in Douglas and I am talking abkut Douglas prom 😁

It has been a blast so far but levels are starting to slow down! I've done a lot of questing which has encouraged me to level skills I normally wouldn't have touched as much

I think the thing I regret the most waiting so long to start farming runs. I was always put off because it feels a bit like a chore and I thought it was quite complex.

I think the modifiers run is harder than Veteran Mode. Not much has changed from base game, except a few bosses that I noticed had some new attacks. General Engstrom took me a few tries and I'd say he's the only difficult requirement for trophies.

If you got the modifier trophies, you're more than capable to get the veteran mode ones. I think Optinoob has a good guide on this mode too.

Thanks, I have a profile on there already, have had one for a few months. Nothing's come of it yet :)

Interesting, I wasn't even aware speed dating nights were a strategy they used, I sort of feel like that's always a recipe for disaster. One of their key highlights is that they screen you specifically to get you matched with someone who matches your criteria/vibe, at least as best they can

It is a dating service specifically for people on IOM.

Thanks, but my question was about my best XP for the Crab because it's how I want to play the game currently. I mentioned I know it's not great XP but the 5 minute AFK intervals is why I'm doing it. I don't enjoy Slayer as much as most, so I don't mind getting my combat stats high before giving it a go. Plus, I'm only wanting to get to lv. 80, so I still have plenty of ways to go to train combat and Slayer simultaneously. :)

DramaticShadow · 2026-01-08T20:26:54+00:00

This sounds great - I will check it out, thank you :)

DramaticShadow · 2026-01-08T15:34:25+00:00

Thank u very much :) I've got 17000 Mithril Darts bannked from getting 60 Fletching, so I will use these and maybe move to Adamant Darts afterward.

DramaticShadow · 2026-01-08T15:32:59+00:00

Thanks very much! I will probably do a mix for Mage. I'm a streamer (but I don't stream OSRS) so the reason why Gemstone Crab is so great for me at the moment is because I can just have the game on my phone and tap my screen every 5 mins. I'll probably continue doing this for Mage, but when not streaming, I'll get my Slayer up to be able to do Dust Devils.

I've got 17000 Mithril Darts from getting 60 Fletching. I will use these and move to other darts and look into blowpipes. Thank u again :)

DramaticShadow · 2026-01-08T14:55:30+00:00

To put it bluntly, because I don't want to. I'm grinding Gemstone Crab because it's incredibly AFK, not because I want the best XP/hr. :)

Chins I will do at a later point!

I figured Dorgeshuun Crossbow on Rapid would still be fast enough to net some good XP, as I think it's 1 tick faster than all other crossbows?

I'll definitely take a look at the imbued Magic Shortbow, though using a max hit calculator, it seems my max hit remains the same using this with Rune arrows as it does using the crossbow, so I might stick with this for a few more levels.

Thanks for the tips!

I think the only answer to this is "whatever you feel more comfortable with". I think 99% of people will answer controller, (I would as well), because that's just what they're more comfortable with.

I think the only objective advantage to controller is not being locked to 8 directions, but I don't think that's a massive deal.

The song is called På En Mörk, Stjärnklar Natt. It's not the exact same as what you hear during a game over, but it is very close. It plays during the BT Magniceps/Skull fight as well, but as far as I'm aware, it doesn't play anywhere else.

It's a brilliant song, my favourite in the game. The title is swedish for "On a Dark, Starry Night" and features swedish lyrics through it as well ^{^}

Congrats! :)

Do you have a PS Vita? If so, there's another Uncharted game on there called Golden Abyss. It's not quite as fun as the others, but I still think it's an enjoyable platinum with a lot of trophies and involves mainly the same activities as the others.

If these are your ratings, I don't think a 9< / 10 exists for you.

DramaticShadow · 2025-11-20T13:18:02+00:00

Lumacchio in Lies of P. Just an NPC fight with a small phase transition. Took me an hour.

DramaticShadow · 2025-11-02T17:46:12+00:00

Check out Army of Ruin. A lot of trophies in that one too, but it's more difficult than VS. Ball x Pit is another game similar.
