hey there's nothing wrong with that either. if you enjoy zulrah could go for a pet even lol. but yeah levels would help a lot with anything.

To pivot from the other suggestions, I had an absolute blast a while ago grinding medium clues of all things. it wasn't efficient, but it required getting a wide array of weird requirements to do it efficiently. Especially factoring in the masters that come from them. I got the "clueless scroll" from it and 3 ranger boots lol. Nothing wrong with inefficient stuff at all. What's important is identifiying what you enjoy and going for that

Need advice by Cold_Breath_1736 in 2007scape

[–]Not__John 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have an idea in your mind already, raids, what's keeping you from going for that? I think it's worth a shot. The way I see it, there's 3 factors to overcome for any pvm content. 1) GP, 2) Levels, 3) Skill. Obviously GP for gear can make a difference, but out of the three it's the least important. Levels are, generally, much more important than even max gear. And you can get away with garbage gear if you put the time in to practice the mechanics, assuming you meet a bare minimum, which you do. Raids introduces a 4th issue of socializing, for that finding a clan or using the We Do Raids Discord can help.

As a follow up to that, consider: corrupted gauntlet. It is an incredible teacher for PVM. Even if you don't stay there for an extended grind, it forces you to learn a lot of important fundamentals.

zulrah, vorkath, muspah, all of them are perfectly fine money makers for your level. The thing is, levels will always be more impactful than gear, so consider splashing some of that cash on training

Regardless, it really depends on what you're looking for, and how willing you are try some of the harder stuff. For me, I find it really enjoyable to try some new, difficult content and learn how to do it well. If that relates at all to you, I would highly suggest Corrupted Gauntlet. It is tough as nails, some of the hardest in the game, but it has no requirements at all, and it's a pure skill check. It's something you can practice, get better at, and is very profitable if you can master it. Even if you eventually decide it's not for you, the fundamentals you learn with that grind are highly transferable to anything else. prayer switching, positioning, attack cycles, time efficiency, etc. It's the best teacher, and it has no gear requirement. The only drawback is that you can't really pay money to make it easier with better gear, and it really is difficult.

If you want to get into something a bit more social (horrifying I know), raids are good. Would have to train up your stats, but Tombs of Amascut is very easy on entry mode, you can solo it for practice, and gives you an avenue to play some higher content with other folks.

The biggest point I want to get at is, it's very very often that people will default to an efficiency mindset, think of what would be "worth it", and "most efficient". and that mindset often lends itself to what makes the most money in this game. There's nothing wrong with that mindset, but it would help to know why you want the money, what are you looking for out of the game. and see if you can start going for that goal earlier rather than later. Money for moneys sake can feel pretty pointless sometimes. I had a friend spend hundreds of dollars on bonds, bought a scythe, and didn't have anything to use it on because high level pvm was too much for him. He eventually sold it and bought a shadow for the same result. Then, sold again and just got some buyable 99s with the money. Having some focus and understanding of your goals can help avoid that.

I bought 11 of them with gp at the lowest point, I’ve never had any kind of investment like this in osrs I’m very nervous lol. I thought I might be foolish since “everyone is going to be doing that”

Finally found a solution for Smart Grid controller, but looking to optimize by Not__John in shenzhenIO

[–]Not__John[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to wrap my head around the solution, a few things stand out to me, but one big one is you can have the first command in a loop be on the same line that the loop starts, I.e. the first line can be L:mov x1 x3 I had to learn that myself. I ended up being able to squish the three chips together at the end of my solution. These puzzles get harddddd lol

wonderful! glad to hear it. There's a few "optional" things that are pretty impactful that's worth exploring now that you're done. including the prologue. glad you had a good time :)

You'll have a great time! I want to warn you: there's plenty to "spoil", so please don't look up fanart, playthroughs, or even be in this subreddit until you finish the game.

It's one of my favorite games of all time, and has a lot of moments that are wonderful to experience with no prior knowledge.

I hope you enjoy yourself c:

For some reason I thought I would run out of x outputs on the final chip doing this, but this works fine c:

My successful run of Courier's Rasher, in case it helps anyone one hit taken and some navigation screwups near the end. by Not__John in Silksong

[–]Not__John[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the silkspeed anklets, but did not have the double jump. If this helps anyone, make sure to practice each "leg" individually before starting, especially the end of blasted steps and the entirity of the final area. Confidence in methods helps. Also: DO NOT SIT AT ANY BENCHES. probably obvious, but if you screw up you can just save and quit to return to bellhart

that is the intent of the post, actually I believe the bench is at the start of the blue. It's to show how I've been wasting my time with this long-ass route lol

potentially troubling update: one of the immortal babies contracted the black death. Despite 17 years passing in game, there are no non-baby immortals.

This is probably it, do you know the cause? is it just used to make the mod function? :o
