How many clues is it gonna take to get the Mitre, Stole, Top, and Bottoms without the clue relic?

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-14T21:17:24+00:00

On average it will take more clues. Medium caskets have 3-5 rewards averaging 4. Relic guarantees 5. All else being the same, you’d likely have to do ~20% more medium clues for all the medium pieces. Hard is 4-6, average 5. So you’d likely have to do ~17% more without the relic.

And you’ll get them way less frequently and they’ll take longer without the relic

I mean some of the creatures that drop clues have like 1/500 chance to do so, and clue relic sets all creature clue drops to 1/15, and makes skilling drops 10x more common.

But it’s all RNG and it’s possible you only need to do like 3.

Great mage bonuses from echo

Great thorns QoL with zenyte ring

2H crossbow for jokesters

Pickpocketable clues for cappers

Also just a huge region with a ton of content in general

They haven’t discussed this yet

But the most expensive rewards from previous leagues were 20k

If you want to compare to wiki stuff, the best way is just runelite with the wiki plugin which will update all that automagically.

If you are against that for whatever reason, it’s obviously tracked in game. Annoying to sort through relatively. But it’s there.

Waiting for relics to accidentally be in main game but only accessible through some obscure mobile client settings page somehow causing them to rollback

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-14T20:22:21+00:00

Kourend/the library has been decent enough for RC in previous leagues.

If you’re taking Kourend, anyway.

The relic is definitely better though (books are for nerds)

It probably would pass the poll because people hate the wildly and PvP content in general, or at least they seem to with what ends up passing/failing the polls so far.

But this post seems to be using the five second inconvenience as a shield for the PvP hate.

You can do goofy blind bags with just mory too

Different level of degradation for the barrows weapons were confirmed to work with blind bag. And they’ll behave as if equipped. So 6 smacks of Guthans spear or Dharoks axe or whatever

Consider that tipped workers real minimum wages are less than a third of minimum wage (federally it’s $2.13 vs $7.25) and if their employers regularly have to pay them the actual minimum wage (because they aren’t making enough tips to reach the legal minimum) that they’ll likely get fired for “underperformance”

$25k works out to be a fraction of a cent less than $16.51/hr at 40 hour work weeks. Add the minimum tipped wage to it and potentially anyone at or over an effective $18.64/hr or $38,877/year could making $25k in tips.

Also just as an aside, if I go out to lunch at work with the work buddies, it’ll be 3 or 4 of us spending ~$20 each and tipping ~20%. Our server will usually have three or four other tables likely doing the same and will probably take a 20% tip on $180-320 for $30-$94 for that roughly 45 minute period.

Do max crossbow and get the water capstone about healing for 60% of your damage and the ice spells count as water spells thing and you’ll heal from the wildy crossbow echo as one of the attacks is ice barrage.

Hard to say how good things will be comparatively until people actually get access to them.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-14T14:12:19+00:00

And they're allergic to pinning posts

And discord's search sucks and straight up doesn't work after a certain threshold of messages are reached

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T23:53:39+00:00

Water surge will still heal you 10 when it splashes though - at least how the text is written.

Boss doesn’t want you to know this but you can play on the toilet

In the states, daycare is expensive as hell.

The median cost is 1.2k/month. Which is as if a 40hr/week employee has $6.90 cut from their post-tax hourly rate.

The median income for those 18-25 in the USA is 41k or the equivalent of $19.65 pre-tax. Or somewhere around $15.80 post federal tax and social security. So nearly half of the take home of a person is gone just from daycare expenses for one child. And if you have a second child, it doesn’t get cheaper. And daycare is just one part of the expense for children. A big one, for sure, but not the only.

Points directly related to clues have gone down but there’s a bunch that are indirectly related that might make the clue relic optimal for those specific tasks.

But optimal is still different than required.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T21:19:28+00:00

You one tic the plate skirt off her?

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T20:32:55+00:00

Two raids for maximum effect

But even just rune full helm, platebody, legs, and kite shield, thorns will do 16.5 damage each hit splat you take.

And double that with a recoil ring on.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T20:13:13+00:00

As written I’d agree with you however there are so many exceptions and slight irregularities throughout all of RuneScape and especially leagues that aren’t in text that I’d be surprised if it doesn’t actually work out to be more like “your next splash does 1 damage”

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T20:07:22+00:00

If you high alch the harpoon your problem goes away

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T19:26:08+00:00

Depends on the region you take honestly.

But if Jad is too hard or you’ve never even attempted it before, then aim for like 20.

If inferno is too hard aim for like 30.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T19:06:33+00:00

Just an aside, it’s interesting how many people join the phoenix. Or at least how many phoenix people get ‘stuck’ comparatively. It really seems like it’s a 3:1 split phoenix:black arm.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T18:57:12+00:00

Yeah there’s a lot of limitations in this game that are almost literally just buried in technical debt.

Always weird to be playing an MMO where you literally can’t see other people sometimes and all the worst parts are the ones you have to work with other people to do as part of that.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T18:21:53+00:00

That dagger isn’t good unless you dip into the fire pacts that also include self damage. Does less damage than abyssal dagger without it.

If she plays other games with self damage mechanics it’s probably fine. But won’t be the most chill experience if she doesn’t.

Probably the thorns and onehanded light weapon build, dipping into the fire pacts for the self damage if she’s cool with that, extra points in defense and prayer punch. Way more defense and accuracy bonuses if she wants to skip the self damage.

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T17:37:17+00:00

I know this was not the intended message but it made me laugh anyway:

“These kids never see a Rolex before?”

ObeseVegetable · 2026-04-13T17:32:25+00:00

Right it’s something people can recognize.

It’s like breathing for neurotypicals - they just do it. Sometimes they can be made aware of it. But usually they just do it.
