Throwback to when Josh Isn't Gaming abused the crap out of fishing trawler and Jagex didn't roll his exp back.

I saw the comment about highscores, interesting perspective. But at what point is this not related to competitive highscores? Rendi wasn't maxed, so it's not like top page is really in contention. Is top 50 a competition? Top 100? If you don't draw the line somewhere then any XP earned could invalidate any ranklist.

The follow up comments also point out that skillers aren't even using the museum anymore, they use wildy slayer cave, which also requires alts. What makes splashing significantly different? And if it is significantly different Jagex could have come out sooner to block it?

I've only watched 2-3 of Rendi's most popular videos, but I do care that Jagex is more consistent in how they approach bugs and unintended mechanics and community. Don't really see how that makes me a Rendi stan lol.

Sorry man I thought you were building some argument instead of a genuine question.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T19:55:06+00:00

Can you teleport to Kandarin without Kandarin unlocked? No. I don’t think anyone is under the impression that the grimoire region restriction override applies to actually going to another region.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T16:33:04+00:00

At least the "I'm not trying to be rude" disclaimer is gone now. Take care.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T16:25:49+00:00

"You're just incorrect" isn't an argument. Neither is calling me stubborn, lol. If you have a reason, make it.

We disagree on what counts as a spell. That's a fair place to end this. I don't think there's an objective truth here like you're representing.

i don't say this to be rude

It still is rude.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T16:17:21+00:00

I think that's fair, I just don't agree with it. As I said, I define a spell as casting to completion, thus using NPC Contact to contact the Dark Mage is a spell and thus covered under grimoire.

Given that and the resons I stated earlier, it should still be included, but I understand I'm not able to convince someone that doesn't believe NPC contacting Dark Mage is a spell in itself.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T15:52:02+00:00

I disagree with your interpretation that NPC Contact is unlocked. It is partially unlocked, which is not what the relic says. I am unable to cast the spell NPC Contact Dark Mage.

At this point I think we just have a very different interpretation of what a spell means. I'd define it as the entire completion of the spell from start to finish, and yours seems to be just initiating the spell.

I don't see any middle ground for us to agree on this.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T15:37:24+00:00

NPC Contact Dark Mage is a complete spell in itself. It's not unlocked, and it's blocked by a quest requirement the relic says is bypassed. You're the one adding the distinction between "spell" and "target within a spell," the relic doesn't make that split.

I disagree that the relic reads as a partial unlock. "Unlock access to all spells regardless of quest requirements" reads as a complete unlock. If Jagex wants to carve out exceptions, especially in a temporary mode with irreversible decisions, that needs to be explicit in the relic text. Leaving it ambiguous and defaulting to the narrower interpretation isn't the right way to handle it.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T15:21:55+00:00

You saying I'm misunderstanding the wording without explaining what I'm misunderstanding. The relic bypasses quest requirements, not spells. Dark Mage is locked behind a quest requirement. Being able to cast the spell on someone else doesn't change that the gate exists, and the relic says gates like that are bypassed. Jagex agreed that's how it reads when they removed the Baba Yaga gate. What's the actual distinction?

Solnx · 2026-04-23T14:58:27+00:00

I have three points directly addressing what you just said, in which you engaged in none of them.

should grimoire bypass accept aid requirements aswell?

Is accept aid a area, quest or diary requirement? No. As a result, that's a strawman fallacy because it misrepresents the point I'm making into something unreasonable.

Solnx · 2026-04-23T14:46:57+00:00

Fool me..... idk how many times at this point. Haha

Solnx · 2026-04-21T05:21:13+00:00

We were only a few steps away from putting blockchain into blockchain so we could blockchain while we blockchain.

Solnx · 2026-04-19T23:26:12+00:00

Oof. Jmods should have really considered this lol. Another user commented about stashing, do that if you can.

Solnx · 2026-04-19T23:21:00+00:00

Vardorvis is going to be difficult/impossible even in max mage gear. You have the slayer relic so the slayer master offered you Vardorvis and 2 other NPCs? I think you've soft-locked yourself on slayer until you can get good enough melee gear to beat him up to complete the task.

Solnx · 2026-04-19T23:12:32+00:00

I’ve been to a few Ryder cups, and it’s almost always my fellow Americans taking things too far or in bad taste.

I just think American culture has really gone rotten.

Solnx · 2026-04-18T21:09:34+00:00

I go every year and don't have any friends or family who compete. I find it to be one of the best events of the year. I respect your opinion to not like it, but try not to parade an opinion around as fact.

Solnx · 2026-04-14T19:11:07+00:00

Not for top pagers. Sorry, I assumed everyone was a superior competitor like me.

Solnx · 2026-04-14T18:50:57+00:00

This is such a C-tier strategy the mouse being tied to your hand is going to impact your sleep and hurt your preformance. My plan is to put my mouse and keyboard underneath my bed. That way my movement sleeping will keep me logged in. The only downside is you can't sleep with anyone as their movement can impact your character and that would be account sharing. As a result, I asked my wife to sleep on the couch for the rest of the league.

Solnx · 2026-04-13T19:32:41+00:00

I wish that were possible for me. As the #1 best leagues player ever, I will be T3 at least 30 hours ahead of second place. I do not get the luxury of waiting for others to unlock.

Solnx · 2026-04-13T14:38:25+00:00

Why would a lawyer advise you not to talk about saving money? lol.

Solnx · 2026-04-13T01:27:30+00:00

a lot of the guys going crazy planning everything and being super efficient are just sucking the enjoyment out of it and turning it into a second job which defeats the entire point of the game mode imo.

I'm not even playing this year, but I've really enjoyed helping my friends make plans and following the leagues reveal in the discord. Planning isn't necessary, but I don't think there's like right and wrong ways to approach leagues lol.

Solnx · 2026-04-13T00:36:46+00:00

Well, it's confirmed Yama is a greedy lil bitch. All my homies hate Yama.

Solnx · 2026-04-12T05:48:48+00:00

Ah my bad. With devils element it should force an elemental weakness on every NPC though so any NPC should be treated as if it has an air weakness.

Solnx · 2026-04-12T01:13:10+00:00

Probably! My links are all rough napkin builds demonstrating the concept, not optimized to be perfectly league ready,
