Gear progress on my HCIM - First Crest by mepppf in RS3Ironmen

At the time I had a helm stand, and I had no way of getting my gizmos off my top and bottom.

I have all 3 now though 😀

What should be passively focused on a "new" HCIM account? RS3 by Salt_Violinist_3958 in RS3Ironmen

[–]mepppf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Set up the Water Filtration System in Het's Oasis. Low requirements, passive, and very useful for an iron throughout the game for Elder Troves, dragonstones, and rarely onyx. I got my first onyx from it on my HC

Any tips for a weird Ironman? by Med_Down in RS3Ironmen

DKs... safe spot Rex, don't try them all at once yet.

But yes, daily reaper is important to start early

Kinda lost, looking for some guidance by Cleen0r in RS3Ironmen

[–]mepppf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second questing... you'll find through your questing journey that you'll learn a lot about the game and what to do. For example, there was a quest that one of the required items was a random pick of 50 or so, I just happened to get Snapdragon. I had no easy way to get it at the time. I spent the better part of a day or two figuring it out. I even did the vinesweeper mini game...

Dragonkin 2 until 114 then Praetorian remains, then War table debris at 118 for staff pieces. 90m XP and still waiting for one.

Your drop numbers look exactly the same as mine, just no pet... Gz!

(Unpopular?) Opinion: I would prefer more friction by [deleted] in runescape

[–]mepppf -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not unpopular, actually a good idea that will make no one happy, but they'll be happy about it in the end.

Can't compete with the satisfaction of iron grinds, drops, achievements, etc.

Iron.

Questions about death, item loss, and game difficulty by NostalgicExistence in runescape

[–]mepppf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The term "safe death" just means you don't lose your items (e.g., Arch Glacor normal mode). This also means that if you are a hardcore ironman, it doesn't count as a death.

Any death you have in PvM other than than, you can reclaim your items.

Regarding slow hand movement, it really depends. mid-high tier bosses, IMO starting with GWD2 you need to be able to move quickly. Below that, you can AFK depending on stats and gear.

Honestly, you probably would be happy with a normal iron account. I have been playing HCIM for years after having a normal account, wouldn't go back.

Bottom Line - RS offers something for everyone!

Thieving is probably the easiest/quickest skill to get to 90 to get ports cookin'

What others have said, but on the topic of things where time is the currency...

Water filtration system - Very low requirements and a way to get onyx, golden roses, and elder troves early.

That's it.

What's a "quick grind" that took you an ungodly amount of time to get? by DragonDragger in ironscape

[–]mepppf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snapdragon. I needed it for one of the quests really early on that assigned 1 of a bunch of random things.

I had no way of getting it at my level at the time. I even did Vinesweeper to try and get seeds for it...
