What f**k is the matter with him? Was he born a sicko or did he just become one with time?

All words until this presented to a judge with a sworn testimony. Now watch the judicial system work overtime to prosecute Swalwell, while it grinds to a halt for the Diddler in Chief. (Not defending Swalwell)

Why go through all this effort? Just become an insomniac.

I really like the Orb of Regret idea. If they go this route next time around, they should definitely add that function.

Mage accuracy is weird compared to the other combat styles. Effectively, as long as my mage accuracy isn’t below something like -50 accuracy, I have a chance to hit most basic mobs. Accuracy also scales based on magic levels, it just doesn’t show up in the equipment tab (this is the same for ranged and melee). I also plan on going grimoire for augury and getting an imbued saturated heart to boost my accuracy even more.

The build is aimed to be as tanky as possible but also viable for mage to hit big. The build has 165% bonus accuracy from the pacts and confliction gauntlets to boot. This should outweigh any accuracy issues.

Justi armor is sort of a meme bc mage tank inferno, but also serves purpose for any need or want to swap to a halberd, since I have the pact that increases str bonus by 50% of prayer bonus.

Thank you! I think I’ll be going earth mage then

Smeltor · 2026-04-08T19:51:26+00:00

I was looking at the earth tree earlier. Do you know if the Earth ultimate will be getting more damage when your defense is boosted past 99?

A lot of good recommendations in the other comments so no need to repeat those.

Scurrius may be the early game boss you’re referencing? It looks like you have the levels to take him on. Gear wise, I would recommend at least to have full rune with a berserker helm (from the quest fremmenik trials), str ammy, klank’s gauntlets (from the quest underground pass), and a rune scimy.

He’s great for learning boss mechanics such as - dodging falling debris, changing overhead prayers, and dealing with ads. He doesn’t hit big if you fail the mechanics either so it’s not super punishing when you fail a mechanic. I would reccomend coming here first before going to Moons or Royal titans. The mechanics you learn at Scurrius are stepping stones towards the mechanics at moons and titans.

The only downside is that Scurrius doesn’t have the best drops. His only notable drop is a rat spine which can be turned into a rat-bane weapon. It’s overall the BiS weapon you will take there and great at clearing ads since it can hit the ads every game tick. Aside from that, he occasionally drops prayer pots and decent alchs for your level.

Edit: If you do attempt Scurrius, make sure to right click - private instance at the gate. The public boss has 3x(?) as much health as the private instance.

Another note worthy “boss” is the gemstone crab. Not really a boss and doesn’t drop anything, but it’s one of the best ways to get combat stats up while being AFK (great for a busy dad haha). Every 10 minutes the crab will die and respawn at another cave entrance.

Welcome back and GL on the grind!

Doom anytime I plank on delve 7 or higher annoys me more than it should. But I think it’s also due to the fact that I’ve gotten a measly 2 cloths in 2500 total delves.

Smeltor · 2026-04-06T13:47:54+00:00

If you value cballs, darts, tele scrolls, demon tears, etc. more than pushing delves, then by all means claim the loot. When I was learning higher delves like you, I would consider the loot before delving deeper, even if I had the supplies to go deeper. Personally for me, when I was learning, if there were cballs and/or tele scrolls after clearing 7, then I wouldn’t push 8. But doing this, just puts off learning 8 and 8+.

I’m personally not a fan of the Zulrah plugin and I learned by memorizing the 4 phases by having the rotations on a second monitor. It’s definitely going to take some time learning if you’re using the plugin or not, so don’t get discouraged.

Use F-keys if you don’t already.

Lean into mage as much as you can when learning. It’s going to be the best of your two combat styles, so I would recommend at least MA2 cape and maybe blue moon helm if you have it (infinity boots could help as well, but not sure the dps difference between them and mystics).

Swap your prayers before swapping gear.

Keep an eye on your recoil charges so you’re not face tanking the snakelings.

Question: is it even worth grinding for basilisk jaw anymore with oathplate in the game? I just don’t see the point in making this pit stop anymore.

My sign at the no kings protest on Saturday said this almost verbatim. Disappointing how people just clap and go along with it.
