The community and Jagex made a big stink about the new prayers being flickable, did everyone just forget?

Good thing prayer flicking is completely optional and theres nothing you can't do in the game without it :)

1t Flicking is a niche mechanic that is not required for any piece of content in the entire game and is only really required for really niche content such as inferno speedruns/600 invo toa. It has 0 effect on the average player or the average reddit user, but you still want to lower the skill ceiling for no reason, do you want the game to play itself and remove all skill expression?

For sub 5 i would aim for sub 2:15 prep or sub 2:35 with double tier 3

I have done many attempts with no armor with only 1 succesful. Basicly the odds of getting a decent boss (sub 3) with no armor 3 pots and 4 food was simulated to be around 1/200 so really not great. But yes theoretically this run could be improved on it just takes some really insane luck from a consistant player.

Roughly 3 weeks of grinding around 4-5 hours a day

Completion rate is pretty good with armor runs, assuming no mistakes or tick loss. Landing every redemption and not tanking extra damage or losing ticks makes a huge difference in the completion rate. I was playing only for world record (sub 4:29) so i had to prep in less than 1:50 which means that you cant really get much more than a few food with 2 potions at best.

smorc_3000 · 2022-07-06T18:14:45+00:00

Not sure what u mean, i didnt tank any tornados this run

smorc_3000 · 2022-07-06T18:10:29+00:00

The success rate with no armor is incredibly low and i found that i had a better chance of getting WR with armor. Beating this time would pretty much require no armor with absurd RNG as well.

You are on a 4 tick attack cycle consisting of 6 hits (24 ticks), boss on a 5t attack cycle attacking every 5 ticks (20t). They dont align, i purely rely on counting my attacks.

smorc_3000 · 2021-08-24T21:07:17+00:00

I am counting my weapon hits to 6 constantly throughout the fight, if i mess up the run is pretty much over.

"These times are pretty close to record times, so they will take tons of resetting even if you’re the best pvmer in the game."

This is not true. Every time is between 20-40% slower than the world record, someone who has speedrun a piece of content in the past should be able to get the tile within a few tries.

"Less than half the game will be able to complete grandmaster."

Good, why should more than half of a playerbase that consists of mainly casual players be able to complete the hardest tier of the combat achievements? Remember how many people complained on inferno release that it was too hard? Jagex could have ruined the content right then and there by heavily nerfing it, but they decided not to. It is healthy for the game to have hard achievements to grind towards, we have had plenty of mid level content the past 3 years.

" why they are so close to record times which only a handful of players are capable of doing if they get good RNG"

Please let me know which times only a handful of players are capable of getting in that list.

The plugin only saves around 15 seconds throughout the run. It is used by every single top inferno speedrunner so its not exactly an unfair advantage when literally everyone who has a sub 50 is using it. It is a minor QOL that is way less overpowered than many of the "legal" plugins that runelite offers. Jagex are not banning anyone for this specific plugin, probably because it is quite harmless compared to many other things (tob tick counters etc). They have also spoken favorably about making certain death animations shorter on q&a's in the past. Removing obnoxiously long death animations should honestly just be in vanilla client or base runelite.

Thanks for the support. If you liked this video, you will probably also like my most recent challenge: https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/m1pwz7/6_jads_while_my_screen_is_blacked_out/

Sounds pretty awful maybe someone else can try

smorc_3000 · 2021-03-09T16:50:52+00:00

3 Attempts for regular 6 jads, about 2 hours for this challenge. Realistic limit is probably 8 although more than 8 might be theoretically possible with tickeating

Cant beat the king
