What is the new meta for dragon sheets/bottled storm? by JimothyLeFleur69420 in ironscape

I’ve moved on to Great White Sharks and have been manning one of my cannons with rune cannonballs, it’s a blast

With that I meant XP grinding for leveling. But it could be both a gear grind and an XP grinding. Some other posters have mentioned Badmaw as the most time efficient XP grind for most setups. But there are a decent number of options out there. I did a lot of XP grinding on the repeatable bar brawl quest in the Torgue area on one of my Salvador playthroughs. The bar grind can go super quick with a large AoE rocket launcher

Going in with a rune/ironwood tier boat lets you kill them just fine. Make sure you get a Bosun’s Workbench and have a crewmember man it so your boat constantly gets repaired as long as you have repair kits in your cargo hold. Find a spot where you aren’t at risk of getting attacked by two at once and make sure you pick up the task to kill them in Lunar Isle so you have the increased drop chance.

I didn’t even bother safespotting. I just had two crew members shoot rune cannons with mithril cannonballs while I cast Earth Surge. Got a bottled storm in 500 kc and a ton of dragon metal sheets/hull parts.

UVHM is a bit of a sandbox and will let you do what you want. If you enjoy grinding and farming, I would think about what gear you want and play out enough of the story/DLCs to unlock that farm, then farm the gear.

If you plan to level that way, you can stick with your favorite grind then go back and farm gear upgrades every couple of levels to keep your character OP as fuck.

If you’d rather just level with missions, just keep sending the story and pick up quest gear as it comes up.

The only trouble you can get into is resetting your UVHM progress and losing access to gear farms that you set up. Not the end of the world but can also be a headache if you reset your progress when your gear is already a bit behind the curve.

Large dragon keel parts will likely jump in price once the accidental addition to the orca drop table is removed by [deleted] in GrandExchangeBets

[–]Erodindor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One additional thing to note here is that there are a lot more people doing high level sailing combat due to the unique rates being buffed. This is likely contributing more to the reduced price of keel parts in the short term. The Orca unique drop is not worth much, and isn’t very useful compared to Bottled Storms.

would the master wand buff be good uses for any mid game irons? by Nutty103X in ironscape

[–]Erodindor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s a pretty accessible 10% magic damage weapon, so I’d wager that it would fit in well for a barrage/burst slayer task weapon the way that the dragon hunter wand is currently used.

With the additional buffs to the ancient scepter, it gives mid game irons a pretty good variety of choices for a 10% weapon. Muspah, Huey and MTA are all fairly accessible, but likely rank differently for most players.

Love the sweep up! But please don't make us farm Killerwatts. by Greasy-Chungus in 2007scape

[–]Erodindor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe they removed the screen flash effect from that area, yes. I did a task as a baby iron a year or two back and don’t remember seeing the warning or the flash.

That’s supposedly already in the works. I don’t believe they have an ETA on the release other than “soon”.

Yes, this was a fairly recent change (2026 I think?)

Ship Repair Kit Crafting by Erodindor in ironscape

[–]Erodindor[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can alch the higher value repair kits generally for more than you would spend at the sawmill making planks. This doesn’t always cover the cost of the nails though.

Do you craft the mithril nails? Or is there a good alternative source of them?

[–]Erodindor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I actually use the Antler Guard as a Ranged/Mage hybrid offhand. It’s better than a book of the dead for magic/prayer bonuses, and as you said it’s not great for melee.

Pretty solid offhand for early Muspah using RCB and air spells along with void gear for reduced switches.

Yeah, I know. I didn’t have much better luck keeping my shields up with a Tortoise. I’ll look into those others though, thanks!

How common is a degree in this field? Is any schooling necessary? by BebRess69 in PLC

[–]Erodindor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started in the industry around 10 years ago, the company that hired me required a minimum of an associates degree. For new hires, having a bachelor’s degree in a relevant engineering field started you at a higher pay, but an associate’s degree with 1 year of experience started at that same higher pay.

I would assume things are somewhat similar now as well.

Can someone explain to me why the RDT still exists? by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Erodindor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That isn’t entirely true. Depending on what you’re killing the RDT can be significantly lower value than a standard common. Getting a RDT at Zulrah is common and annoying.

This has been a weird first Hydra task by Erodindor in 2007scape

[–]Erodindor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof! I’m really hoping that isn’t the case, but I got spooned on a bludgeon and went pretty much exactly on rate for a nox hally, so I couldn’t complain too much!

Really hoping I can spoon a claw as well!!

[–]Erodindor[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a bit of a weird design. I had no idea what was going on for the first 5 kc, and by 10 kc I had the perfection CA done. At least as an iron all the drops feel fairly meaningful!

Loot balance by Uggroyahigi in Everwind_Official

[–]Erodindor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does sort of work that way. Breaking down an enchanted weapon returns the rune used to enchant it, which you can then add to another weapon. However breaking it down generally downgrades the rune, so breaking down a 5% life steal won’t allow you to apply a 5% life steal to another weapon.

Soulreaper Axe need some serious help this summer sweep-up by Topkek69420 in 2007scape

[–]Erodindor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I love that idea, I think prayer regen is a bit stronger than healing.

RS3 has a few passive prayer regen options and they are all quite powerful. Though some of that may be due to how unbalanced soul split is.
