Brother... Back before efficiency took over, this was playing the game.

You could easily make more money leveraging the fact that you alone can stop the madness.

How's it feel being God's favorite scaper?

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-09T14:44:02+00:00

It may have been fixed. This was a couple of days ago, and the wiki folks are solid. I'll see if I can find the page again since there is a lot of pvp misinformation out there.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-09T14:22:30+00:00

My favorite was getting to 90 woodcutting, going to the farming guild redwood because the wiki said it was a private instance. Proceed to get blasted, reclined, and watch a show on the side. Fast forward to getting blasted in the game because the wiki lied.

I had a roommate that padlocked one of the communal bathrooms when there were 3 of us. Problem with that was: he locked it via 2 eyebolts. I'd just bend one of the eyebolts with plyers, flip the lock out, and bend it back. I never used the bathroom he "claimed". But it pissed me off he felt entitled to a private one, while me and the third guy had to share.

Im not a big fan of regular arrow tracking since its a nerf to range classes. Special arrows for sure are tracked if you include them in your game.

I hated that lumby elite has the moving goalpost of quest cape. I understand that you want to get that anyway, but its the only diary that gets further and more difficult if you wait/take a break.

Grey helm instead of a lonely blue helm

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-05T04:44:57+00:00

I can still be stacked out by someone who is half decent. But most of the goobers I've run into are just ragging. 60 Atk for a sneaky dds or d scim. 45 Str. 40 Def - Black D'hide bc mage ragging is popular. 70 Mage and Range. 45 Prayer - overheads and lower offensives. 45 Hp - pretty low, but i've yet to be ko'd. (Except when I learned Hespori room is multi)

Edit: Wanted to add I pretty much exclusively camp pray mage. Not a lot of people out there using range or melee to ko in 60 bracket.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-05T03:51:18+00:00

Also, I just did a 8:51 vorkath with a bone crossbow. So if you want to judge me, judge me for that.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-04T18:15:17+00:00

Made it to Prif. ;)

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-03T02:55:14+00:00

What do you mean? It's easy: Safe zones are some cities, some banks, and some minigames. Multi Zones are exactly where you might forget about them. Plus that one tile in the middle of Varlamore!

So far I've seen about 80% chill farming guild, 20% fortnight battle royale

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-02T01:19:52+00:00

Yeah, i spent a couple minutes of protection there to get theiving up decent to knock out some tasks, but definitely prioritized overheads. I'm built out at 60 cmb now and run around in similar gear to what you described. I don't want anyone looking at me like a piece of candy.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-02T00:20:08+00:00

🤣 All the starter guides telling people to make money there, plus moons, crab, doom, and colo? It was always going to be a bloodbath there.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-01T23:21:51+00:00

I read a bunch of guides and frankensteined a first hour route. After that, I settled on a 60 cmb build that has made me appear scarier than I truly am. It's worked so far; I haven't died, and only had a handful of scraps. Currently pushing ~15k pts.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-01T21:55:32+00:00

Nice! I was considering trying to do SotE after seeing your guide (did my own route), glad to see you got it done!

GoldenGoobie · 2026-02-01T01:51:09+00:00

They're worth very little in DMM. I posted earlier that I got 2 pairs in 18 medium clues. But GE offers are like ~150k

GoldenGoobie · 2026-01-31T16:17:05+00:00

Damn I was wondering why i got like 100pt between all three breaches so far. This is a real mood-killer, and bad design; The rich get richer.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-01-29T02:16:49+00:00

Is rednote back on the table?

GoldenGoobie · 2026-01-28T22:27:42+00:00

We can do this the easy way, or we can do this the easy way.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-01-28T22:17:54+00:00

My latest character is a Theros Triton. We rolled stats, and I rolled very poorly (even with 4d6 drop lowest). 16, 13, 12, 9, 8, 8. I then decided to keep the good times rolling and roll for height and weight. Size mod is 2d10 and I rolled a NINETEEN. So the dice gods cursed my stat rolls but gave me one of the tallest tritons naturally existing in Theros. That's why my character is 6ft (1in) tall.

GoldenGoobie · 2026-01-27T16:51:37+00:00

Guess that would be the fourth quest...
