Is it ok if I make this topic? Idk the culture around here that well

Anyway I'm currently dumping agility xp into my total xp while I'm waiting for trees to grow!!!!! What about you guys?

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/e/e4d16e41.jpg

@davyheinz

I saw your advice in the previous topic. I will try other crops to get 99 farming faster

Also since I now have 70 farming I'm planning to do Song of the Elves quest for that near 1m xp drop reward at the end. Oh and I want BOWFA too though Im lacking funds rn.

hey ho
Currently stockpiling ancient shards in anticipation of WGS.

One of the rewards is going to be an upgrade to Arclight that doesn't degrade (new BiS for Demonic mobs), but you'll need a fully charged Arclight, and a drop from a new post-quest mob to make it.
after years of waiting
nothing came
I dont even know what I am doing.

Wildy slayer sounds fun. I looked up a guide for it. Can do it with rag gear which is nice. I may consider doing this in the future lol

I assume 2k total worlds are relatively safe from pkers esp during sleepy hours.

Will need to get this for slayer. Omfg I have no pvm experience outside of the old jad. I found sepulchre too intense already. I gotta get good on the ingame mechanics lol. I'm still quite nooby at controlling my character.

There's no release date set, but from what I've seen, the consensus is that it likely won't be until next year.

I'm approaching virtual level 109 agility. Considering making this skill my 3rd 200m in the future. Like sometime in 2025 lol.

I ended up getting extras . Had to look up a guide for the 1 click method lol. It's like summer gardens.

Gonna take around 270 days for me well probably more since I won't have as much free time in the future. There are players that can do it in like half the days which is crazy af to me.

3rd 200m very nice. Im thinking farming will be my first unless i just dont get phoenix ever. Over 60m without fire birdy so far.

And nah outside of revs solo pkers are all trash. Been at wildy slay for over a month and have no non rev deaths to them. Also have multiple kills despite not bringing anti pk gear lol. The number of pkers that dont even seem to know the basics of Artio is kinda wild. Youd think theyd catch on by pking there enough but evidently not. Cant imagine how many kills you could get if you brought a voidwaker to anti lol.

Then for example my 2.2k stalker, 4 of my escapes from them a couple nights ago were from ZGS specs, yet no counterplay on their end on follow up attempts. No putting more distance when im about to be unfrozen then kiting me, no bringing seeds to try and catch me slacking, nothing. And then things like maging me, which gets me to put up mage pray, and then switching to voidwaker to spec on said mage pray....

2.2k total does not mean they have the slightest ability to pk. Revs is the only place youll find any skill, though not all of them are good either. The solo boss pkers are nothing but a waste of your time.

And then of course multi is subject to clans. Skilled or not you gotta expect some deaths there. Overall though if i was a main, pkers would add to my profit lol.

^ Is the pker stalking you a player named "A zoo keeper"? I found some posts talking about that guy patrolling the wild in 2k and 2.2k total worlds lol

Oh that guy has a youtube channel. He's been doing this for years :

I wonder if other players can see me in the penguin costume. Definitely not gonna buy a bond for my alt rn to check

Can be seen by others indeed. As a monkey as well.

And just finished my voidwaker on the ironmeme. Will probably stick to wildy slayer to try for a ward and maybe 2 champ scrolls though so not free yet.

Coldwar (penguins quest) has been my fave quest so far. Sad that it doesn't have a continuation on osrs. Ik there are more parts to it on rs3.

I like the My Arm questline too.

grats

I came back to osrs just last month after a few years break. Saw that voidwaker spec being used often in Pest control to dish out massive damage. Was super confused wtf that was at first lol.

Mage training arena sucks. I'm only doing it to unlock the bones to peaches spell (required for lumby hard diary). Im about 65% of the way there in total points. So far have gone from level 75 to 76 magic. Almost level 77 magic (around 20k xp left iirc).

Taking a break from it since my right hand hurts from all the clicking.

It's definitely up there with the worst content in the game.

I green-logged that garbage a couple years ago and I'm never ever going back. They did make some minor QoL updates to it in recent months though.

The telegrab maze is literal torture

RIP Hornyposting on CE. 1999-2024
I got the bones and peaches a few hours ago. The enchantment one wasn't too bad since it goes by quick. The maze is pretty bad. The alchemy one was the worst imo. Need to cast alchemy 1000 times at minimum if going for the 30 coin objects lol. Graveyard one was kinda fun since you can now dodge the bones lmao.

Just need to wait for some plant to grow to complete hard lumbridge

Went on to complete majority of medium and hard ardy diary. Had to do like 3 quests for these.. Just have to wait for crops to grow.

Completed easy and medium kandarin. Working on the hard one now.

Still need to complete fremink diaries up to hard. Need to do some quests.

Then need to get a xeric talisman.

For the herb runs

our characters can push boulders of this size on a flat surface, that's crazy! what's the weight of this thing??? im guessing like 10 tons.

i noticed in other quests we just pushed them down a slope (like what link does in BOTW) but didnt expect this to happen on a flat surface and rolling it like 30 ft away!

3 days into my latest attempt at fishing a big shark (pointless collection log slot filler).

It's a 1/5000 drop, and I'm already 5k sharks deep :(

Deserved dryness for calling log slots pointless. Glgl though. Swordfish was the one i went dry on, bass, harpoonfish, and shark were alright for me.

damn sharks are slow af too good luck tho

I got my herb runs optimized for my current stats with the completion of hard lumby/ardy/kandarin/kourend kebos diaries. I'm locked out of elites because of my farming/slayer/ and magic being too low lol.

Got portals set up in the POH. So i can finally start farming herbs to make like a few hundred k a day. plan on mainly training agility for a while tbh with some slayer/farming moments to break up the monotony.

Virtual level 109 agility now! kinda making sure i stay ahead of this one account that I think is a bot because they always always stop in particular spots before clicking the obstacle. Never seen them do a seemless run and I've been watching them since like 1-2 weeks ago lmao. very bot-like behaviour to me. I'm like 9.3m xp ahead of them rn but used to be 10m. Didnt train much agility when I was doing the diaries and quests so they closed the gap some.

bruh i just found out that

crystal axes
crystal pickaxe

are bis for woodcutting and mining respectively. they released back in mid 2019 (when I wasn't playing). Had no fucking idea. I was still using a dragon pickaxe in guardians of the rift. thought the crystal pickaxes were just some cosmetic released recently lmao.

when i briefly played in 2021 post-200m fishing i was still using a dragon pickaxe at zeah rc!!!!! i was at barb fishing spot from mid 2020 to early 2021 and only left to go to fishing guild bank to get more feathers lol. did not read any news updates or anything

Use Dragon pickaxe for Guardians of the Rift. Crystal requires charges and Guardians of the Rift will fucking eat thru them really quickly for little payoff

What's the population of Runescape like 2024?

What's the population of Runescape like 2024?

it's still pretty active.

though it can feel sparse when going through older content (like i recently did for quests and diaries). i think most of the population just stays around areas with decent xp and/or rewards so like those newer skilling minigames. a lot of older content is pretty outdated in that regard outside of a few areas, maybe.

when i was doing guardians of the rift there was usually like 200 people participating at once. prob same amount as castle wars in 2007 (castle wars is dead these days).

I maxxed skills using only dragon tools and still do. I use the crystals for other things like herblore, as a main. Having everything be crystallized is just expensive and annoying.

oh and the map is nearly twice the size as it was back then + a whole bunch of new bosses n enemies so people are more spread out when doing pvm stuff i reckon. i still have yet to visit most of the newer stuff outside of the kourend catacombs and lizardmen temple

It i also a lot of people playing 2 - 4 accounts at a time
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/cfd0bef5.jpg

this guy is def a bot. saw another account with similar name style and stat allocation too. their movement is very similar to the other guy that i suspect is a bot (but has very rounded out stats so it doesn't look like a bot at first glance)

i found a post on reddit about some dude botting to 99 agility and selling the marks of graces obtained for 50m so i can def see why some1 would bot the rooftops on alts.

I saw that the heron can change colors now
Pretty neat. I'll go for it someday
