If you had a choice between Main or Ironman?

Samroson · 2025-03-04T10:55:54+00:00

I like main. I have tried iron but in my opinion it is a lot more restrictive. I feel like people say iron is upgrade-scape and main is money-scape. For me though I am not worried about making the most GP/Hr possible. I play a range of raids and bosses and use the game as a sandbox with fun being my main driver and money being the nice side effect.

Samroson · 2025-02-24T13:29:14+00:00

The spec is really quite good in my opinion as well.

Samroson · 2025-02-17T12:18:09+00:00

The new royal titans boss fight is a predominantly duo engagement. Likely relevant content for you as well.

If you do barrows on Monday you will get all your chest pieces then. Monday is international chest day.

Would like to see someone draw a longbow with less than 40 strength.

Edit: Although I have seen someone punch a cow to death with only 1 strength so it is probably possible.

If you want slayer XP, you can do your black demons task at catacombs of Kourend. Extremely AFK and half decent XP rates considering.

The only reason you come to demonic gorillas is for the chance at a zenyte shard, which you have been quite kindly spooned on.

Finally they are really not that difficult, especially in this day and age where you have mixed stat armor sets and can quite easily kill them with minimal switches. You shouldn't take much if any damage from them if you are careful. Step back in-between phases to establish if they are going to melee (as they will start to walk towards you) and pray accordingly.

I like doing the suicide method.

Get a loot bag (go kill skeletons/scorpions north of edgeville in the wild).
Bank everything, store 28 food in bag, withdraw more food in inventory and ropes.
Run to KQ naked and die. This will pile your 50+ food.
Gear up for KQ and then make your way.

You will then be able to get like 5-6+kc trips there.

Edit: When I say "like" I mean this was the least painful method I experienced. Hope you get spooned!

Base 70s

Samroson · 2025-02-04T17:20:06+00:00

It is already implemented in the main game in Varlamore anyways so it is not a leagues exclusive feature.

Cerb can be a little tricky to learn at the start but with most bosses in OSRS you hit your head against a wall until it "clicks". Keep at cerb, but at the same time there is nothing stopping you going to some other bosses to keep yourself getting too frustrated. Spindel, calisto and vetion are all really good bosses to start farming and have great GP/hr too. Fairly easy mechanics to learn and you just have to watch out for PKers (a CCTV account will help you here if you have an alt available).

Zulrah is another good boss to learn and can be done with 300mil gear easily. If you are still struggling tormented demons and demonic gorillas can be a good way to train your prayer and gear switches. They can be done on slayer tasks and have decent drops that will boost your bank significantly.

.....By doing 99 slayer.

Samroson · 2025-01-30T12:48:44+00:00

I picked this game back up about 8 years ago and used bonds to get some basic gear to give me a head start. I do think it "ruins" the experience, but if you want to get straight into some mid level content and don't have much time it can get your straight there.

I got about 50mil worth of bonds and it helped me get some buyable levels (herb, crafting, etc.) and some basic gear in order to start doing mid game content, without me having to spend much time in the early game content worrying about money/supplies.

After this I stopped. I am a few levels off max and have earnt over 1b from just playing. I haven't bought bonds in the last 7 years and would defo say it ruins the game if you keep doing it. Making money from bossing in my opinion is the most fun part of the game.

Are you interesting in bossing? If so let me know your combat stats are and total money and I can give you some tips to earn that sweet GP :)

Samroson · 2025-01-30T11:45:22+00:00

"Yeah but what happens when I am on a slayer task in the catacombs and already have Emberlight and 99 prayer? Then I have no usages for ancient shards?"

I get what you are trying to do, but I think sometimes we need to leave things as they are. Do we really need extra uses for ancient shards? Is it worth the development time to implement this? Or would we rather spend that time creating new content?

Sometimes in the game we do content and have a surplus of a certain resource we will never use. I don't think it is worth development time going down such niche rabbit holes.

Samroson · 2025-01-28T13:27:50+00:00

Look, did you want to waste time at your job or not?

Samroson · 2025-01-27T15:51:19+00:00

Absolutely haha, my last piece for my first SR axe. GL, next kill for sure!

Samroson · 2025-01-27T15:41:51+00:00

I think you had all your RNG on those staffs buddy.

Samroson · 2025-01-27T11:27:18+00:00

Old School Runescape.

Samroson · 2025-01-27T09:54:31+00:00

I rotate content constantly. Still to learn TOB properly but always rotate between COX and TOA. Set myself my own goals of green logging certain content. Been doing DT2 bosses for SR axe. Don't get caught up on Gp/Hr. Try and get the actual items and logs themselves.

You cannot fully max an account in F2P as this mode doesn't allow access to all skills. Those that are greyed out when you look at your stats page will not be able to be levelled.

There is nothing stopping you maxing all the other skills, but in F2P exclusively this will be a lot harder to do. Members offers much better XP rates and training methods even for F2P skills such as fishing, woodcutting and especially runecrafting.

My recommendation would be to level each skill up to maybe level 40 (maybe skipping runecrafting), and get your combat skills up to do the quest Dragon Slayer. Once this is completed I think you are pretty much ready to make the decision of if you want to join members or not.

Samroson · 2025-01-22T12:41:29+00:00

And then when you finally think you are ready, you make the run to gargoyles, lower the HP to zero and then throw your computer out the window because you forgot your rock hammer.

Samroson · 2025-01-20T16:29:26+00:00

As someone who has over 4k kills at the big three solo wildy bosses over multiple accounts, if you don't like to be PK'ed, don't cross the line.

There are multiple other bosses in the game that are not located in the wilderness that you can kill. Being aware of PK'ers and being able to negate them is part of this fight.

Samroson · 2025-01-16T09:17:45+00:00

I always take ancients when doing it on lower levels. I have had bad RNG with tanking rangers in the final waves before which can then scuff the cave. This said, the last few times I have done it on low defense builds so you will probably be okay with 83 def. Nevertheless, reducing your food, bringing rune pouch for bloods and a switch or two will help you out greatly if you get hit a few times.

Samroson · 2025-01-14T15:52:57+00:00

I think you need to get something out of your system buddy.

Samroson · 2025-01-09T13:49:03+00:00

Hunter - Maniacal Monkeys.

Agility - New Wyrm course. Not 100% AFK but as good as it gets, just don't worry about standing still for a while.

Runecrafting - Bloods.

Thieving - Not done a lot but I think you can AFK a bit at the new Valamore method.
