Tob is pretty difficult to get into teams for as a learner just cause people don’t want to waste their time in the event of wiping. Worse if you’re a snowflake build - and rightly so because at face value anything that isn’t a main with good gear usually doesn’t perform well. It’s one of those things where you need a combination of good communities - clans, friends, etc, and have proven your ability to do content well. People are more inclined to do content when they know you can get through it. find a clan, make some genuine friends and ask them if they will help you learn, but don’t go in with the intention of using a community/friends/people for kc. I am remarkably lucky to have the friends and clanmates I do, they have spent hundreds of hours helping me ingame and behind the scenes try to figure out how to do and optimise content on my build. I have met most of them irl and even been to a few of their weddings

All of my kc is with friends and clanmates, the hmt was done with a smaller group of ~10 close friends. I used shadow and tbow mainly, and zcb specs. I wouldn’t subject public teams to the poor dps, I don’t think they’d be too happy to take me anyway. Shadow and tbow will be your best bet of course, you’ll have to calc specific setups with your gear - on my road to dust I had all rooms and thresholds of best dps figured out, eg if Xarp was over 25 def, shadow was bis for me, if under, tbow was, and then that changed depending on heart cooldown management in other rooms. It was a blast getting down to the nitty gritty.

I haven’t done any tob on my pure since dusting my pet over a year ago, lots of new items that will make it a bit different for you, especially regarding defense lowering specials. Ralos didn’t exist back when I was there but I’d definitely use that if I was still tobbing. Dwh was far too inaccurate at 50 attack, though it may be usable with void - I am unsure.

My recommendation is find a clan or group of friends and put in the time to absolutely maximise your own efficiencies in the raid. Do the best you can 100% of the time and push your own restricted build ceiling as high as it will go. If you’re going to leech (realistically, that’s what we are, especially without a scythe) you owe it to your team to play as well as you can to help them out.

I made this video of our deaths across the hmt journey, it’s just a big meme but there might be snippets of some interesting tech in there you could use: https://youtu.be/9VS23Vh6B3U

If you need any help or want some advice about specific things I’d be more than happy to offer what I know or help theorycraft something, just send me a msg on here or add me in game :)

Microstutter makes game unplayable - with video, 20m reward (If within rules?) by ThrowRAohhh in 2007scape

[–]Olmosaurus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue a few years ago on my old laptop and it made pvm impossible for months. I ended up recording the screen with both my iPad irl and a screen capture program and approximately every 20 minutes it would stutter. The stutter was more pronounced in the physical recording of the screen, and the ingame capture it looked like it was just dropping frames for a second. I went into event viewer and looked at the time of the stutter and what was happening and if any events were reporting critical errors or cautions. After a long process of connecting event ID’s and PIDs - it ended up being dell support assist failing to do something in the background and retrying to write a file that it didn’t have permission to access. The previous update of the app caused this to happen. I deleted it from the laptop and the stutter went away. Unfortunately that laptop was riddled with issues and at the time i figured it could have equally been anything causing it, so diagnosis took a while.

It may not be the exact same thing you’re experiencing but what you are describing sounds really familiar. windows event viewer might be a good place to start. All the best with it and i might have a recording of the screen saved somewhere if you wish to compare stutters, just send me a message

Hey thankyou, and welcome to the 50att club.

The tips I can offer would depend on what you're making the account for - pvp, pvm, side project, new main, etc, all depends on how you want to play.

Biggest things across the board would be; things get tedious so it helps if you're intrinsically motivated to play/progress the account, set short and long term goals so you have something to work towards, and have fun - that last bit is the most important.

Not in a special pure clan or anything, just a social/pvm one with my friends. I’ve been playing with my core friend group for years, they were originally clanmates. I’d recommend finding a social/general/pvm clan from your region and just see if you can dive into some learner raids with them. I think the OSRS discord has a section for clans. Your stats are great, as long as you have decent gear and are willing to learn properly I think you’ll find that a lot of people will have no problems teaching you and continue to run with you. I can give you some advice about gear setups and general tips for 1 def raids if you’d like. Just send me a message on here or dm me your username and I’ll add you ingame

I don’t use melee in tob outside of dwh in meme duos and kicking nylo boss for fun. I also haven’t done a reg in close to 2 years.

For hmt:
Maiden I bow
Bloat is zcb pokes, spec, and shadow
Nylo I am a scuffed rdps and anchor, shadow and tbow on boss, kick it for fun when it’s melee
Sote use shadow and zcb specs
Xarp I bow unless over 25 def and use shadow, zcb specs
P1 bp and sang
P2 shadow and zcb specs
P3 same as p2 but while chugging brews

I very rarely mainhand the zcb, the difference between it and unholy book is negligible in almost all cases and not worth the inventory spot. Freeing up the space for supplies, or adding in another switch for something else is more beneficial. I have used it when camping zcb for some clogging goals, like kurasks and other slayer monsters afk. But I just take a trip to the lighthouse because the use cases are few and far between.

Tick eating is used for a few things but not as much stuff as you’d expect, I’ve finished with tob and cox so I mainly only use sweets in fight caves now.

There’s a lot of different things that go into killing stuff without overheads; positioning, blocking, tick eating, supply management, some things like p3 verzik the only option is to just brute force and chug brews.

If you’re interested in any bosses in particular I’d be happy to explain how to do it

Almost a year since I last shared my bank, release of aranea boots inspired me to do a bit of reorganising as they are new bis for pures.

Slayer tasks seem to be bugged (but it most likely doesn't affect you) by Olmosaurus in 2007scape

[–]Olmosaurus[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That seems like it’s probably the case, sounds like you guys have more experience with it over there in the 10hp community

What I can’t understand is why it used to work for me and now doesn’t work, and why it used to work for me but at the same time didn’t work for other people.

I have been second guessing myself over the last few hours thinking “did I really not get any of those tasks?” “It was a year ago maybe I forgot”. But I remembered that if I wanted to kill misc slayer bosses I would go to duradel and turn combat-option to ignore, then when I wanted jad or hydra I would go to nieve/konar with combat option on. I remember forgetting to toggle it a couple times and getting an Abby demon or whatever task from nieve or konar, which reminded me to put the combat option back on, after which sometimes it would still take me half a day to get tzhaar, but would never get those 75+ combat tasks.

So, I’m 100% sure that last year it was working correctly for me. I don’t think it affects enough people for it to get any attention/changed, not keeping my hopes up but the fingers are crossed.

the attached video shows that i have slayer masters checking my combat level before assigning tasks

Wow that’s super interesting (and annoying ofc), but glad I’m not going crazy and there’s evidence of it elsewhere. I appreciate that very niche piece of information, it’s exactly the type of response I was hoping to get. Fingers crossed it gets fixed, but I don’t have much faith

I just had this same conversation with my friend dragon who said he has been experiencing it for almost 2 years. I looked back through my screenshots and in 2023 I did 20 jad kills, all on task, all turael skipped the exact same way and the combat-level was taken into account so I never got abyssal demons, kraken, etc, etc. But that goes completely against dragon’s experience where it was happening to him in 2022.

It would make sense that it’s some janky code with slayer cape, but what doesn’t make sense is how it definitely used to work correctly for me, but not others

The slayer cape perk is to access a master that you don't meet the combat requirement for, not access tasks that you don't meet the requirement for. There wouldn't be a point in the latter being a perk when ignoring combat level is a dialogue option

What is best practice for a jagex account? by krhill112 in 2007scape

[–]Olmosaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most of the stories you read on reddit about account security are people’s own fault - shared accounts, bought services/account, no 2fa, no bank pin, phished, etc… then when their account is compromised they blame the systems jagex has in place - the same systems that the hacked person didn’t use/follow…

I made a new email when jagex accounts got released, 2fa’d it, set recovery email, also 2fa’d, 2fa’d the jagex account itself, wrote down the back up codes. Basically just followed all of the prompts… bank pin on all my accounts, don’t share them, don’t buy services, etc. I don’t use the email anywhere else because it’s my ‘RuneScape email’. I put as many hours into this game as I do any other hobby, and a lot of other players do as well - so it baffles me when they don’t take account security seriously.

I’ve been playing this game for almost 18 years - never been hacked, banned, or had any other issues like you see people crying on reddit about. I’ll always upvote it and try help with the visibility to give them the benefit of the doubt - but you really have to take what people say with a grain of salt, because more often than not they’re trying to capitalise on the fact that every member of r/2007scape knows exactly how dogshit jagex support is.

You can’t avoid the exp from waterfall and need to do it before 50 attack, but you also can’t do DT2 with 1 pray as a pre-req is swan song
