woooo slayer wooooooooooooooo one of my fav skills, hope you have fun :D

anyways just finished this
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/6/64ed03f4.jpg

this quest wasn't bad, i spent all the experience rewards on agility so wooo 120k experience in agility woooooooo

i'm kind of putting some focus on Dragon Slayer 2 because one of the requirements to start it is having 200 quest points and i have 182 so might as well lol

plus you get ferocious gloves which have better offense than barrows gloves but worse defense

not in a hurry to tackle Dragon Slayer 2 though, i'll chip away at it slowly

oh fuck xmas crackers are crashing

i should have sold when they were worth like 3m ea (i have 23 of them) damn rip it's over

the update ruined their price since they can no longer be used for gambling (party hats can be selected now by player rather than it being random chance)

sorry for your financial loss but

What's the best way to make money for someone with every skill in the 60s? Asking for a friend >_>

If you have the Coal Bag, Blast Furnace is a nice option.

It's a new update zombie pirates. They are only 21 combat so you don't need insane stats or gear. They are in the wilderness but you can bring welfare gear.

Lots of people are making bot accounts to farm them so Jagex will probably nerf it or increase the requirements.

Orly? I didnt even look at that but I"ll check it out, thanks

They changed a ton of shit with the project rebalance. Mostly agility stuff.

https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Update:Project_Rebalance:_Skilling_%26_Poll_81_MTA_Changes

tl;dr:
Agility courses give a little more exp and certain courses give more Marks of Grace
Certain agility shortcuts had their diary requirements removed and their level requirement lowered
Lower tier Slayer Masters had some harder tasks removed (ie: that fairy Slayer Masters won't assign dragons anymore)
Certain pickpockets had their failure rates reduced and certain stalls give more exp now when stealing
Motherlode Mine now only requires 57 Mining to go upstairs and Mining Gloves cost less minerals
Some other shit >_>

Nice changes in the update!

Also...I beat the Song of the Elves quest! The bosses were pretty tough, particularly the Fragment of Seren, but I beat her on the first try with my trusty Trident of the Swamp. First time I've ever used Saradomin Brews by the way, and the boss took quite a few of them.

Good job! I'm a long way from even attempting that quest >_>

That's abnormal. I did level 67 to 70 hunter at the Black Salamander spot and never got PK'ed or even attacked. Helping matters is the spot is close to some green dragons, which draws all the PKers to there...most of the time anyway. Dude must have been desperate to attack someone with no loot...or just a prick.

there's only been 1 time in my life a PKer left me alone after seeing me in the wild

if i'm seen by anyone whether i have equipment or not i'm getting killed lol

hence me trolling them in the wild wearing 3 valuable items and screaming "NOOOOO" as they whittle me to death

I activated the Retribution prayer (the one that damages enemies when you die) while a PKer was haggling me at the Chaos Alter and he backed off lol. But then some other PKer came by 2 minutes later and killed me >_>

Otherwise I'm just like you and die everytime I see a PKer lol

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/a/a00b683e.jpg

i came back and got 93 hunter + 1900 total level! for tommorrow i doubt i can go from 93 to 95 but ill try

think he just wanted a free kill and used me as practice. he dd specced me at the end to look stylish and did some other pk style switching before that. not sure why he had his prayer up though lol.

Thanks again for the zombie pirate tip. I didn't know it was this easy and valuable >_> Only got attacked by PKers once but I don't have anything valuable on me anyway so whatever (I just have a dragon scimitar, book of war, and my neitiznot helmet. Otherwise I just have achievement gear that doesnt drop for PKers and some monk robes. It's super low stress and I make some decent money too

Lol I didn't see this earlier. Oh yes gambling is bad for sure...

I used to gamble at the duel arena when staking was a thing.. On my own a few times (not on my acc but someone else's tbh lmao)

I mainly had a friend do it for me tho on his max main. He'd stream it on twitch. Good times

So what changed between the old and new arena in Al-Kharid? I heard the old one was super toxic and like 33% of bans were from that PvP arena lol.

That sounds amazing >_>

Haven't been to the new one yet but it seems like jagex got rid of the entire gambling aspect of it based on the wiki.

Before 2022 you can 1v1 other players and contribute to a prize pool for the winning player. Most players just put the same amount as their opponent. So it initially was doubling money for the winning player. Later on there'd be a tax added by jagex as a goldsink.

Most people just participated in naked tentacle whip staking. So tentacle whip equipped, no armour, no food/potions, no movement, no prayer, no obstacles, etc... so 100% rng based. The person who attacks first (which is random) has a slightly higher chance of winning. After 10,000 stakes one can have a k/d of like 4999 wins 5001 losses or some shit like that.

Main thing to watch out for were scammers who'd try to turn on some options on the sly to get an advantage. I got almost scammed by a guy who turned on movement + obstacles to try to confuse me. But I won and earned 100m

Screenshot of my streamer friend who staked for me. Oh yeah he started streaming on YouTube after his twitch got banned..I supplied him with this GP:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/bfa9889f.jpg

Only reason why his Win is much higher than his Losses was because he did non-gambling related stakes against lower levels.

This was from like 2018. I don't got all this gp anymore since we went on a huge loss streak

most i had at a time:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d80e2c97.jpg

we prob lost way more than ever earned tho. We mainly did small stakes like 10m-100m tbh. We only went big when we lost too much gp

oh and the bans were likely from RWTers. they were around in that place. heck even I've sold close to a billion gold for a couple hundred bucks tbh. the players around my circle at the time also did the same or more lmao

Gambler's fallacy is real >_>

Nice little surprise during my last Slayer task.

Is Classic fully F2P? I remember back ages ago when I played RS like 75% of content was subscription locked.

Both OSRS and RS3 have free to play options, but yeah...75+% of the content is subscription locked.

If by Classic, you mean Old-school Runescape, then its just like it was in the past. You can go to Varrock, Lumbridge, and Falador areas and do 20ish quests there and will probably take up 30-40 hours before you run out of stuff to do.

If by Classic you mean the old OLD Runescape that is 2D, then I have no clue >_>

I believe RS Classic only survives on private servers nowadays

Yeah it's bad. I know it's an actual word that isn't malicious but knowing the osrs community it may not be for that

Are you able to go to the Grand Exchange? You can buy them there, but they may be a little pricey for your level if you're just doing Imp Catcher >_> I think all of them together cost like 8k there

Yeah, the Bible Chat people are certifiable crazy. True believers or trolls, I don't know. They're often seen at Pest Control spamming stuff about gay people going to hell or some garbage. I know their owner has been banned at least a few times for that stuff.

ok shit that's unfortunate. I know at least one of their ranked members (just below the bronze star) is either gay or bisexual. I know because we used to video chat on discord a few years ago lol.

Nice . I will get a firecape myself someday. I've always thought they looked neat

I got 94 hunter a few mins ago. I'm just gonna try to sleep now.

I'm giving up on my Iron Dragon slayer task. I'm level 69 Magic yet it took me 150 Blood Runes and an eternity just to kill 4 of those guys. Fuck that

So I canceled my 49 Iron Dragon task from Konar and got assigned 160 Blue Dragons instead >_>

What the fuck is with this bitch and dragons!? Surely this'll be more manageable...right? I may go back to the fairy slayer master if this keeps up. These tasks are kinda over my head a bit.

hey at least you have the option of killing the baby versions, those still count hehe

also I think I recall saying using dragon scimitar on dragons slayer tasks is okay but I take that back, better to use a dragon sword because dragons have less defense against stab weapons plus dragon swords are just as fast as dragon scimitars anyways, i'd take the small sacrifice of power to hit more frequently tbh

also Konar is a rough slayer master for sure, yeah the extra slayer points+brimstone keys are nice but I only go to her when i'm 1 task away from winning big bonus slayer points haha

I noticed that lol. It's less Slayer exp per kill but fuck it. Fuck these dragon tasks. I'm definitely going back to the fairy after this and saving Konar for milestone tasks

I even got Brimstone key and got 300 iron ores.....which I already had a fuckton from power mining >_>

can I get banned by receiving items that may or may not be legit (like in GTA Online if someone drops cash near you, you can get banned if they cheated to get it and you pick it up)

cus I was minding my own business and someone traded me a bank bond for free, and I sold it on the Grand Exchange for a ton of gp. I think more gp than I've ever had in this game lol.
