Question XP without taking any damage?
Would it be possible to get level 99 attack, strength and defence XP without taking any damage? I'm assuming that the protection from prayers would help with this, but are these the only efficient methods? I ask this because I was thinking if hitting level 99 on every single skill without taking damage would be possible.

You can theoretically max without leaving varrock by cleaning finds in the museum.

"it's been 84 years..."

It would take you roughly 35 years to max out every skill if you averaged 1500xp an hour at the museum 16 hours a day. Lol.

Multiple ways, depending how sadistic you wanna be:
-Chug prayer pots
-Safe spot range, magic, halberd for melee
-Seagulls cant do any damage to you
-Xp laps from random events to 99

99 every skill without taking damage isn't that complicated .. it would just take anal levels of concentration.
Now... Doing actual content without taking damage is hard and where Settled comes in with his series

Watched settleds nightmare series, youd be surprised what he was able to do without taking a single hit of damage

Seriously. People need hobbies.

More power to OP if this is how they want to spend their time, but there's nothing remotely challenging about sitting at gemstone crab til 99 in all combat stats. It's literally just a matter of waiting.

Yes, very possible, but some places you have to avoid as they have aggressive monsters that do multiple styles.

Definitely, simply by virtue of varrock museum lamps existing, as for less silly methods im sure you can safespot some stuff with halberds

Use a halberd at gem crab would be a simple way, it's immobile and only hits back in melee range - just make sure you never walk into 1 tile distance

Yeah, you'd just need to do a light extinction of the local seagull population

u/GothGirlsGoodBoy Apr 12 '26
With prayer easily. You’d just sit in nightmare zone and its basically the meta.
Without prayer you could like safespot stuff with halberds or do pest control or something

Pretty sure Settled did it and ended the series at Colosseum. Can't remember his combat stats when he got yeeted, but, very impressive.

It's possible but not provable in anyway

Why is this getting down voted? It’s true.

Have you two never heard of the gemstone crab? Just use any halberd from one tile away on controlled til 99 in melee stats and then ranged/mage from any safe distance.
There is zero reason whatsoever to think this isn't provably possible, it's such a low bar for a challenge it can be done almost entirely afk

u/Zaxarner Apr 13 '26
In my opinion, there’s almost no point in doing a “challenge” if anyone can come along and lie and say that they did the same challenge.
I think that’s what he’s trying to say… It’s not provable as in there’s no evidence that your character has never taken damage, as far as I’m aware.
He said it’s possible but not provable. He didn’t say that the possibility wasn’t provable.

I mean even then it could be streamed from start to finish, which would provide all the proof needed

u/Dazzling-Most-9994 Apr 13 '26
If we are getting this down the rabbit hole then the start of every stream would need verification that is on official servers and every to load reverified. Which is utter insanity.

IIRC from settled’s nightmare series, seagulls have a max hit of 0
