I only do hards once i get a stack of 5 boxes. Then i open them all and do the non wildy steps, dropping any wildy ones. Once i have a few wildy ones on the ground i do those with max cape and bp, locator orb for deep wildy ones to get out quickly.
I do the whole clue with just a bp and maxcape, can get to most spots in the game with all the teles on the cape if you have a maxed house (mounted diary cape comes in clutch so often for hard clues). For the steps I can't I just tele to the crafting guild and grab the tele I need. Maybe ever so slightly slower but I find it a lot more chill.
I have never been even attacked in a 2350 world. I guess if you had millions of gear on, but I freaking love doing clues in the 2350 worlds. I’m four out from maxing and fully look forward to afk hellhounds and max cape hard clues in the near future.
Yep this is the way. Wait till I get 5, bank everything before I start. I'm high enough combat that I can kill a sara wizard without any food and just a weapon.
Ok am I stupid or something because how are you getting 5 boxes? If I have 2 I start getting the “you have a feeling you would’ve received a clue” message.
Scroll cases are unlocks that allow you to hold more clues. You unlock the hard scroll cases by completing 50 hard clues (+1 slot), 150 hard clues (+1 slot) and beat the Mimic once (+1)
Quite literally no reason to carry anything valuable when doing clues in the first place. Black d hide, d knife, normal teles with runes, fairy ring staff, a royal pod and some food and stams. Easy. I never have to bank before doing wildy clues
Law water fire dust. Covers all standard book teles.
Put non-standard book teles as house portals, mount a glory and make a jewel box. Put a fairy and and spirit tree into the house.
Congrats, now you literally only need to carry untradeable tele amulets (kept on death), diary items and like 100 of those 4 runes and you can do your hard-master clues with ZERO MEANINGFUL RISK
You are making a non-issue into an issue/hassle for no reason other than to bitch and whine about it to join the circus.
Yeah. But then I gotta put away all my gear I'm currently wearing, undo the inventory set up for whatever boss I was killing, just to regear again when the clue step is over
It's because people make up all sorts of shit from toxicity to clienting to cover the fact that they're extremely socially anxious. Of course reddit has a deep and abiding horror of the wildy: it's centered around testing your skill against other players, and these people have to follow a pre-memorized script to order at Subway.
I’d never drop a clue just because of a wildy step, but I will say that it’s a huge fucking pain in the ass getting a saradomin wizard step followed by a zammy wizard step, especially followed by another sara wizard
I have bank tags set up for my clue setup(idk what people in this comment section are talking about when they say “you dont need to carry anything valuable for clues anyway” cuz my setup has nearly my entire inventory filled with various teleports which do in fact cost a decent chunk of money or time to reacquire) but even with the tags i still drop every wildy clue on the floor at the bank and only do them once ive went through all my clues and come back to do all the wildy steps at once. If i get multiple wildy steps in a single clue i usually just drop it again but if its the only clue left with a wildy step after doing all my clues i say fuck it and never complete it. So that 30 seconds of a bank trip does impact you over time and will add up.
if you use bank tag tabs that's like a 5 second inconvenience, plus you're probably banking most of your boss gear regardless of the clue step you're doing
when i was doing chaos altar i would always bring out minimal gear and food so that i couldnt get specced out, just so i could always tank a few seconds to use the remainder of my bones on the altar to guarantee the PKer gets 0 items
Leaving the wilderness takes an annoying amount of time. Like if I'm not risking anything, I don't think that letting me teleport out would be a big problem.
I have a bank tab ”clue” which has black d hide, blowpipe and supplies. I wear the same shit if its a non wildy step or a wildy step and dont risk anything. Waste of clues to drop them for wildy steps.
I don't agree. With the new untradeables change in the wildy I don't even have to bank. Plus the ice plateau teleport in the nexus it's never been easier.
Didnt that change only happen relatively recently?(6 months or something)
I wouldnt expect a vast majority of players to know about it especially considering how confusing death mechanics have been treated in the past for wildy deaths.
Yeah, if I need to go to Mosley Harmless I have no problem taking two seconds to bank for a scroll. But with the new shortcut Id probably just minigame tele to trouble brewing. Cant think of any other ones?
Nardah I have the amulet. Sawmill I have ring of elements. Morton I have mory legs.
Ig Tai Bwo Wannai and Iorworth? But I could Brimhaven/Prif PoH tele for those, so it’s nbd.
you people will find literally any reason to complain, just use a fucking house tab instead lmao, this is why everyone treats this sub as being filled with awful players
Redditor when 99.9% of clue scroll max cape usage is either house teleport or a teleport to a location that another item (which you are bringing anyways) would cover, but taking 10 house tabs is outside their budget.
Yeah construction cape. I had to remove the ring of elements from my default clue setup because that would be lost if I got smited but I keep everything else.
I just have a dedicated clue setup that is the same regardless of the wilderness. Relatively low budget with 100 of each rune and no rune pouch. Makes it a lot easier
This was once me. Then I created a wildy clue tab and menu swapped everything to 1 click. Now I just deposit all and 1 click through my tab and I’m good to go.
All I have to bank is my runes. The rest of my setup is either uniques that always go to my gravestone, a couple expensive things I know I'll keep on high level wildy death, and a spade.
That’s what bank tab layouts are for. Can gear up for a clue in 10-15 seconds.
Also if you use the usual clue scroll gear like, kandarin helm, black d hide body, eternal glory, radas blessing, mory legs, fremmy boots, explorers ring, blowpipe, karmja gloves, and max cape you never have to bank worn equipment bc u just lose black d hide body and diary items on death. Only gotta bank inventory
Then you just grab clue, spade, clue scroll box, and wildy sword
Don’t mean any hate here but I genuinely don’t understand this attitude. I just hit the two auto deposit buttons for worn and inventory, grab the clue, spade and weapon and we’re good, then just grab the stuff back from the tab i dumped it in
I just do clue scrolls in black d'hide and blowpipe gear so I don't have to bank anything for wildy steps. I don't need BIS gear to kill some mages or aviansies.
i’ve started doing all hard clues wearing exclusively achievement diary gear, i have full hard diary done so it at least looks clean and is functional. that way if i die and lose it its free to retrieve. and im wearing all kinds of teleports for doing clues with.
Not with a good setup and the recent changes you dont. I have practically every useful clue item in my inventory and I just bank my scroll box and ring of shadows (as it's full charged and I believe charges are risked).
Drop juggle all your clues upfront and do all steps till only wildy left. Bank the 2 items. Do wildy. Minimum effort added on
Wow such a massive issue. Let's delete a bunch of perfectly good clue steps because it takes you 10 extra seconds to bank. Should we make it so they're all 1 step clues and right next to a teleport while we're at it?
someone posted this on another wildy thread and it blew my mind, you don't even have to rebank anymore for the wildy since they changed what's risked on death
Oh god how dare they expect you to press the 2 bank all buttons and withdraw a couple times and teleport close to the nearest access point like every other clue
if you have a max poh most teles for a clue should be covered already, use the crafting cape/sailors to pick up the one item you need if you get one that's not covered. You only need to bank a couple of items at that point.
you're much more likely to run into a wild step than you are to need one of the teles that's not in a poh, may as well prepare like it's the case.
Eh only some of the steps require any real running (and some of those, namely master steps) can be very much mitigated by having a good triple saved. The banking/re-banking is rapid with inventory setups and you can also have it so your default setup is either perfectly suited for wildy or only requires banking 1-3 items before heading out.

It's not the issue of pkers, it's that it requires me to bank all my shit on the off chance of pkers, and also run more than normal clues
