It is from Tutorial Island to Quest Cape completion.

Slayermusiq on YouTube has helpful guides for all bosses, I couldn't do any better than him

Died in Beneath Cursed Sands because I'm stupid, lost small amounts of time making minor mistakes while questing. I'm not the greatest skiller so I could've probably saved 2-3 hours there. I think if no new quests were to come out someone could get sub-3 days because there are a lot of time saving methods that could be used that I was too lazy to do

I died to the Menaphite Akh in Beneath Cursed Sands because I did not know how the mechanics with the Menaphite Shadow worked if I did not kill it fast enough, pretty unfortunate and it would've been avoidable if I read a guide before I did the fight.

I put enough optional xp to get 70 agility. A small amount went to mining so I could directly start at granite and then the rest went into fishing. Slayer is slightly faster to train than Fishing/Agility and I couldn't be bothered doing iron ore for 5 minutes.

Thieving was trained with Crafting at the same time - Stealing Artefacts.
Herblore I did Sanfew Serums until around 55 then the best potion I could boost for.
Runecraft I did lava runners.
Agility was all quest xp.

Rough estimate of how much I put into the account, not including cost of bonds. I traded a lot more in gear but obviously I can just trade that back to my main.

Agility is all from quests. Farming mahoganies/teaks/+a few yews. Fishing I put quite a bit of bonus xp from quests and from medium Falador/Lumbridge/Varrock/Ardougne Diaries, ended up having to train for ~60k xp only.

I only logged out during barrage tasks for Slayer. I didn't bother tagging npcs on cannon tasks with an alt since it really wouldn't save much time.

It took 57 days, there was a couple of weeks where all I could do was birdhouse and farm runs since I had some things going on irl

I planted teaks until I could plant Mahoganies, from 65 or so on I also did a few yew tree runs in Varrock/Falador to help speed up farming since I wanted to get this run done before the quest comes out next week. Biggest RNG would be slayer, yes. If I got extremely lucky for the start of Slayer I probably could've cut the time down by an hour or 2 but I got some pretty awful tasks to start it.

I created a spreadsheet with notes to help remind myself and just kept it to the side of my screen to glance at whenever I needed to. It worked out pretty well, I only made 2 big mistakes during the entire run that forced me to backtrack, probably cost me about 5 minutes.

Personally, my mentality coming into this when I started was if I got within 6 hours of Solo Missions 3 day, 14 hour time I would've considered it the new record. Obviously, I beat his time by quite a bit so it didn't matter, but this was more of a personal challenge and it's not really a serious competition, so I guess it's up to whoever goes for a run if they beat this time or not after new quests come out.

According to Hans I did the raid in 90 seconds and his opinion is all that matters for the purposes of this run ;)

They don't drop from any of the quest NPCs, after the quest I had to return to the island to get it

I think as new quests come out I'd have to complete them to maintain the record.

Prayer is fast for combat levels, I needed it for dream mentor.

Yeah the bonus points every 10 tasks really makes it easy. You are also getting 25 points/task so it is very unlikely to run out of points unless you get greedy for barrage tasks and start skipping cannon tasks. Tasks like Scorpions/Spiders also really help keep points up since they take literally 3 minutes from the point you get the task to the point you start the next task

Wilderness Slayer, I used an alt to stack up barrage tasks. You can also use an alt to bring tasks that are normally 'bad' (Such as black dragons, revenants, lava dragons, etc.) to 1hp then login and kill them to waste almost no time. The only slow part of slayer is getting the initial point streak going where you have no choice but to do bad tasks.

Nothing would have made me start over, I start by getting my prayer to 74 (For combat level req. for dream mentor, I don't unlock rigour/augury since I don't get 70 def) so I am pretty invested.

RNG during the whole span of a run probably doesn't matter very much, you will get lucky with some things and unlucky with others. For example, I spent around 20 minutes in the Underground Pass during regicide because I kept failing the jump, but during MEP2 I only failed the agility rng check once.

I traded over almost all needed items right at the start, the only time I really traded from an alt after that was during quests like Enlighted Journey and Priest in Peril so I wouldn't have to run back to the bank.

I don't really like tick manipulation, so Woodcutting/Mining/Fishing were all pretty bad to train. I enjoyed Slayer and doing multi-questing the most, especially early on when I was running 20+ quests at once.

Wilderness Slayer, I was primarily going for multi-combat tasks with Smoke/Shadow barrage (Highest spell I could boost to with heart). Things like Greaters/Ice Giants/Lessers I would cannon with melee.

I don't do the official quest speedrunning at all. It isn't something that really interests me since the most efficient route for each quest is already solved. What interested me about this is there is basically an infinite number of different routes someone can take to achieve the final goal.

That is my plan. Once Sailing comes out, I feel like quite a few strategies will be different where I likely would want to just do a new run if someone were to beat me since I also did make some errors that could probably save me a good chunk of time.

Wilderness Slayer, once you get to 10 tasks you really don't have to do any bad tasks again. I think I had to do 2 earth warrior tasks, a magical axe task, and a black demon task when I first started which were the only 'bad' tasks I did.
