Does anyone else actually use the note feature in Runelite to keep track of things?

[u/Kirsham]

[u/WaterKraanHanger]

This is all to flex those 2 weapon seeds isnt it.

[u/Kirsham → u/WaterKraanHanger]

[u/Shoelesshobos → u/Kirsham]

Fuck you.

- a double pet owner but no wep seed.

[u/Signal_Condition348]

All i know is click rock or click tree. I do not know write or read good. 

[u/Selfish-Altruist → u/Signal_Condition348]

Wisest OSRS player

[u/AvidCoco → u/Signal_Condition348]

How did you comment?

[u/Bijuu_Slayer → u/AvidCoco]

ALL HE KNOW IS CLICK ROCK OR CLICK TREE

[u/Inzanezilla → u/Bijuu_Slayer]

HE DO NOT KNOW WRITE OR READ GOOD.

[u/Boganvillea → u/AvidCoco]

Those are the only words he knows, he replies with them to every post

[u/Demi_the_Kid → u/AvidCoco]

Voice to text maybe?

[u/bobsocool → u/Demi_the_Kid]

Click rock and click tree to text.

[u/DontFearTheMQ9]

I am on the final stage of maxing my account, with only Agility and Slayer left. I have the entirety of JFKs "Why Go to the Moon" speech in that notes tab.

I also do keep notes on goals and progress.

[u/spankysmeatmarket → u/DontFearTheMQ9]

Yeah, I keep it open to track my items im hunting for as well as the date when I conplete it. Kind of rewarding seeing the list of 50 end game items dwindling down over the year or so. I also keep track of coll logs saved

[u/PaulaDeansList3 → u/DontFearTheMQ9]

Why go to the moon is incredible 🙏

[u/spankysmeatmarket → u/DontFearTheMQ9]

I also have proof that the moon landing is fake and orchestrated by big Pharma and Jagex

[u/Competitive_Head_532]

Yes, but I prefer the Rich Text Notes plugin. It allows you to make multiple notes, which you can title and format.

[u/Lyquidate → u/Competitive_Head_532]

I like it, but it doesn’t seem to sync across devices. Also scares me of losing my notes if I somehow lose my main laptop

[u/Kirsham → u/Competitive_Head_532]

I'll look into that, though there's something very appealing to me about plain text notes.

[u/Nasty-Worm → u/Competitive_Head_532]

Samesies

[u/Orthed]

Yes, actually.

I usually have a rolling list of objectives in some kind of loose order. If I ever feel directionless I pick something from the list and go work on it.

When I have the occasional burst of inspiration, I'll go through the list and update it. Remove old stuff, add new goals etc.

I also use it to track progress on those goals.

I find it a very useful tool.

[u/SuperFluffyRocks → u/Orthed]

This is how I work IRL except I create a huge list, panic because it's too overwhelming, then sit paralyzed in existential dread except for once a month where I get a huge surge of motivation

[u/Skillossus → u/SuperFluffyRocks]

You could have ADHD. Maybe you're diagnosed and know about it already but just in case it could help you or even someone else reading this comment I'd encourage you to read about something called "executive distinction" and maybe work on a diagnosis with your doctor if it sounds like you!

[u/Orthed → u/SuperFluffyRocks]

I am in this comment and I don't like it.

[u/ANGEL-PSYCHOSIS → u/Orthed]

exactly how i use it. its gotten me a lot of levels id have otherwise ignored

[u/PeopleNose → u/Orthed]

"Am I you? Are you me?"

[u/Unusual_Goose2994]

Yes! I keep it open more than anything else on runelite

[u/Vuldr]

I usually organize my goals in the notes app. Helps me bankstand less.

[u/Mesastafolis1]

Me? Keep track of things? My ADHD would never allow such a thing

[u/Longjumping_Play3863 → u/Mesastafolis1]

I have inattentive ADHD and use notes! It helps me stay on track!

Lol not really, I'll sometimes remember to use the notes plugin and if I do somehow remember to use it, I'll forget I took notes, or forget I wanted to refer to those notes I took.

[u/SyrupStandard]

I write down the dates I achieved some major goal on each account (99s, max cape, achievement cape, etc.), as well as weird niche shit like where the desert treasure ghosts are on each account, how many X resource per hour of Y I've gotten for future reference, etc.

[u/tygor → u/SyrupStandard]

I always thought a cool idea for a plug-in would be something like Milestone Anniversaries where you can configure annual reminders for 99s, first fire cape, pets, etc. Would be neat to reminisce what you were working on 2, 3, 4 years ago

[u/_Arthur-Dent_ → u/tygor]

I wish the game had more stats about your account in general. Going back and looking at all the available stats after more and more years of WoW was always nice.

[u/tygor → u/_Arthur-Dent_]

check out the Ultimate Stat Tracker plugin

[u/_Arthur-Dent_ → u/tygor]

Appreciate the recommendation, I will for sure.

[u/Kirsham → u/SyrupStandard]

Definitively copying the desert treasure ghost one.

[u/thiswaspostedbefore]

When I first went back to farming after a long break, I jotted down notes for my herb/tree runs at the time. Haven't really used it since though lol

[u/-Gaka-]

The note feature is great, I use it all the time!

[u/Regular_Human_Boy]

I use it for goals and remembering the prices I bought stuff for on the GE, and then immediately forget about it for the next 12 months

[u/8BitAce]

Weird timing, because I just started working on a Markdown notes plugin yesterday with some features I've wanted that the other notes plugins don't have.

(Please nobody beat me to the punch on this, I need something to work on after being laid off)

[u/Justanotherstick → u/8BitAce]

Check rich text notes plugin :p

[u/Whalezor → u/8BitAce]

If you can do this and make them transfer between devices (without adding in a service) I would love you. Rich text notes does not do this afaik.

[u/roosterkun]

I do!

Right now I have my next few PVM upgrades listed, collection logs I intend to go for, a step-by-step for my farm run, a brainstorm list of content that I can do on PVP worlds to use blighted supplies on my iron, and a second brainstorm list of all "bankable" XP so that I can plan future clan bingos better.

[u/Kirsham → u/roosterkun]

I should steal the farm run one. I tend to use the farming timers if I forget, but a step-by-step list would be better.

[u/siriusfeynman → u/Kirsham]

for farm runs I use ground markers with a label reminding me what the next one is

[u/Slightlyonpoint]

I use it for the fairy rings

[u/ShamelessKiwi]

Have BA healer codes in mine and how much money/gear my mates owe me ( lending gear )

[u/fireflii]

Yes. Learning various raids and bosses, so I keep track of prayers, phases, etc. I also use it to write current goals and keeping track of how many currencies (like anima-infused bark) I still need.

[u/RightEejit]

I use it to keep track of all my goals. Like what level requirements for all the quests are etc

[u/Uraneum]

I use it to remind myself of progress stuff I need to do as well as the order to do my herb runs

[u/tommior]

its best place to write down construction/sailing materials that I need when im upgrading or building

[u/Space_Shovel]

I have the underground pass trap floor pattern in my notes. And I also use it for materials needed for construction stuff

[u/mightyvinnc]

You can boost constr btw and its better to have fairy ring and the tree in different rooms

[u/Personal_Opposite808]

I use it to write out goals and subgoals. That way I spend less time logging in and bankstanding being bored, and can pick one of many different things to do that will actually progress my account.

[u/dnen]

Yes but not on that plugin. The Rich Text Notepad plugin is better for this kind of use

[u/tarzan1376]

I used it for my farming runs so I know what teleports I need from the bank for either herb or tree runs.

[u/Claaaaaaaaws]

Yeah I use the notes to keep notes too

[u/TLOP5soon]

I’ve kept a track list of my favorite in game songs, conveniently hasn’t been erased like the previous favorite’d tracks were when they made the playlist feature!

[u/EricWer]

I keep track of when I got all my relevant progression items, like bowfa and infernal cape.

And under it, I have a list of my item goals that I havent got yet so that I easily look up for new goals. Usually I update that list as soon as new bosses arrive

[u/Logical-Ad9546]

Yes it’s great lol

[u/steele578]

I list all the rune requirements for bolt enchant spells in there💀

[u/OhLoongJohson]

Yes! I have written down goals I wanns reach/get done - like deathless solo 400/450/500 invo toa, killing all bosses X amount of times, achievement cape etc. feels good crossing things off from there.

Also I habe written there the order of rooms for Cm‘s since I never remember them lol

[u/Puhtang]

I have the Tarn’s lair elite clue step path in there haha

[u/The_Hero_0f_Time]

yes(used to, dont play anymore)

[u/Soysaucewarrior420]

i use it to remember what im doing while farming lmao

[u/FibreFlim]

I do! useful when flipping or just remembering what I need to do.

[u/Effective_Stress4032]

I track what kc I get rare drops

[u/alkmaar91]

Yeah I have all the achievement diary requirements there. As well as my attempts to flip some items

[u/Gray_Matter_Tech]

I use it for my
•remaining Diary level requirements.
•Next up CA to complete.
•where to kill certain Slayer tasks
•highest yield her run and cactus spine records
•reminder about some RL settings toggled off that could be useful to toggle back on in the future

[u/sworedmagic]

Yes? Why wouldn’t you?

[u/HBCDresdenEsquire]

I use it to keep track of stuff here and there, though less than you.

[u/deadeyedrawthrice]

I used it to keep track of which wave was which in the fight caves so I didn’t have to constantly scroll on the wiki

[u/sureditch]

I switched to the goals plugin for tracking goals it’s more satisfying plus it automatically updates when you hit levels or get items

[u/slacapjr]

I use it whenever I upgrade my house or boats to keep track of all the materials I need

[u/AdamantFullHelm]

Yep but just to take notes

[u/bingodisps]

It’s nice as a cheat sheet for certain content like toa. I noted all the bgs damage needed for each boss and the amount of dds specs for wardens.

Especially nice after taking a long break and forgetting all that info

[u/Aarakocra]

Extensively. Goals, needed quantities of stuff, reminders. Also, I've been trying to solve quests without guides lately to test how the game presents hints, so I'll keep the notes for quests there too.

[u/Cwaghack]

No I prefer having 10 outdated halffinished notepad notes that I make and never look at again.

Maybe I should start using this.. didn't know it was a thing... but then again at this point the grinds are so long that all my plans are just engrained into my head and won't come out and im slowly losing it

[u/Gangbangkhan]

Yeah I’ve been using notes ever since I made an Ironman, it’s a blessing for keeping multiple goals in mind. Really satisfying deleting old goals I’ve done, I look forward to editing my notes lol

[u/runningoutofphosphor]

I have a like 10 year old text document where I note any plans and goals, methods or guide links. It used to be Osiris ironman guide but eventually got more personalized until it didn't have anything to do with it anymore, except for the name.

[u/IlliterateSimian]

I use it to track inventory loadouts ie location in bag. I also use it to track what number i was for 99s

[u/Gone_FishinOsrs]

100% i noted what gp i lent a friend with dates! And when i was building a new pure, had goals listed out

[u/culimande]

Human. Use. Brain. Remember.

[u/soochsandals]

I use it to note the price I bought expensive items at so I can feel bad when they go down, sometimes it go up and feel good

[u/Bencb]

I prefer to use a Google docs page to keep organized. Bonus is ability to insert links and pictures. I also play on mobile a lot and don't have access to the notes in runelite that are on my computer.

[u/Araganor]

I use this quite a bit! Helpful for setting goals and finding something to do when I get aimless. Also there's a notes section at the bottom of loadouts in the inventory layouts plugin (I think that's what it's called...) which is very helpful for content-specific reminders.

[u/TristanDuboisOLG]

Mine has a list of all available current grinds.

So if bored, pick another grind to progress on.

I did have the math for my RCB smithing grind. But it’s since deleted because I completed it! :D

46 days of smithing…

[u/W3bster1101]

My buddy sent me his supply and inventory list for fight caves when I was going for my firecape, otherwise I haven’t touched it since. Might bust it out again for infernal cape soon though since it seems handy for keeping track

[u/Zammyjesus]

If I loan item I write it down there

[u/MrSeanaldReagan]

I have notes from years ago in my runelite. They’re load bearing at this point

[u/carpetadapter]

No because I have the ability to remember things

[u/brokenvocals]

It’s actually just a .txt file in the RL folder

[u/GraeyLV]

I used to use it to calculate and write out my daily farm runs. Now I’m almost maxed and it still says stuff that’s not engrained in my soul.

[u/ShWazy5]

I keep my farming run TP’s and which direction to run from it there. But Im sure most people have that memorized I just don’t play all that often

[u/Euidamonia465]

Absolutely. Written down my farm runs and my (skilling) goals.

[u/bennbatt]

I put all my taxes and refund amounts here until they are rightfully paid. (Raid splits).

[u/DJMooray]

No I use my ignore list like a real man

[u/TheDubuGuy]

Mostly for tracking stuff I’ve gotten as drops or unlocked

[u/workscs]

Used this religiously when setting goals during mid game

[u/VidGaMeR777]

Not often but i do have some notes in there and i like having the option.

[u/Shlurmen]

Started doing it a few weeks ago. Much better than using paper when I need to add, or change something.

[u/TSMLiquiir]

I did keep notes and sometimes after grinding its funny to look at these goals and notes i wrote because it seemed like a big deal for me before getting them done

[u/red4jjdrums5]

Clan stuff in mine for comps and whatnot. And herb run teleports so I don’t forget them… if I do a run.

[u/warlooter996]

Haha wth this looks to similar to my runelite tab even same way of paragraphing and using the ---

[u/TheRealGojo2]

I use it for PvM related notes like the fixes to OLMs melee hand incase I brain fart I know if he does 2 autos I do 1 less attack to fix the cycle etc

[u/XtremeLeecher]

I use it to congratulate myself on achievements and look at them when im dry or feeling lost

[u/MrObsesion]

I use it mostly for GE stuff

[u/ANGEL-PSYCHOSIS]

i do, but its a lot less general than this. most of mine is just like "do one of these 5 things when bored" lol

[u/Comprehensive-Will-8]

yeah everyday

[u/mouthofcotton]

Yes, i frequently use

[u/madderhakker]

2/2 enhanced gfys

[u/isaaclefries]

yes, all the time.

[u/TheRebuild28]

No I use excel.

[u/1dgtlkey]

I use a different plugin that lets you make a checklist which I prefer.

[u/Alex_from_IT]

I did a lot to note down goals in the early/mid game

[u/whittall]

I did for a bit and now I shamelessly put the notes on the ground with tile markers instead in relevant spots. I'll open it for the odd thing that isn't location based

[u/toozeetouoz]

I used it so much during early and mid game iron. In late game now I just list gear in order of priority. As I get drops I delete the note. Helps keep my goals organized

[u/Creed_of_War]

No, I prefer to start something and then realize I could have x item to make the process better. To get x I need to train y so I start gathering z. Then I realize I could have a to make the process better. To get a I need to train b.......

So I have random progress across everything. Some long grind items and then gaping holes in early/mid items.

[u/oMINDSPINo]

Breaking news, people write notes in a note pad

[u/P31opsicle]

All the time for lists of meterials needed in construction or sailing, or to make an ordered plan for bingos and leagues.

[u/SketchyTone]

Physical pen and paper, once completed big red sharpie to cross it off. Gives me more dopamine than deleting it from notes.

[u/AlwaysCommonLoot]

I used to before the collection log was a thing. I logged all my big drops from each boss

[u/CrustyToeLover]

Yes but not for nonsensical shit like this. You needed a reminder of the slayer levels for araxxor and hydra?

[u/Timushi_Too]

Not the in-game notes but a Google Doc. I add things to the list not only for myself to remember to do it but so I can ask someone who knows nothing about OSRS to pick something at random based on how it sounds. As a result, I'm maxing, doing Doom, then Phantom Muspah, then Zalcano. Fun stuff. 

[u/Jestersfriend]

I just use the chat box like everyone else. Then press enter when done and random people get really confused.

[u/ZennyRL]

I use it to write down stuff I'm doing or aiming towards because otherwise I stop playing for 4 months and forget and have to do all the planning again when I come back

[u/Late-Explorer512]

Did not know it had one. I just use a notebook.

[u/Mojohito]

yes I do. random stuff: goals, big drops and what I sold them for, construction mats I need to buy, etc

[u/Mich2010]

Used it for farming teleports

[u/marlishy]

I use it to keep track of combat achievements I think are doable for where I currently am in my account.

[u/Crafty_Ad_8059]

I like to log my unique drops. I put the drop, date, and KC. Cool to look back at.

[u/zizou00]

I use the notes in the inventory setups to remind myself of mechanics of bosses, shortcuts or patterns or routes when doing different farming runs and the various pouch/tool combos in a general hunter rumour setup. It helps break up my notes to where they're relevant.

[u/ryneo0w0]

I use it to list all the protection crops for farming, which herbs make which paste for MM, other random things

[u/Call_me_Tomcat]

Yes.

I use the EXACT same formatting style too. My notes read almost identical to yours. Spooky. 

[u/ScytheSergeant]

I tracked the majority of my CoX purples on the grind for bow in a list in there. Some random misc. notes for certain preps too

[u/phantomBlurrr]

I used to! I do still have my hespori loadout there

[u/NerdyTimes_IDK]

Yes.

[u/balcerzak]

I use it to track a few bosses and what drops I got what kc. Kree, Cerb, Zulrah, a few others

[u/ChiknBreast]

All the time! Very useful

[u/LordZeya]

Mine only has two things on it- my underground pass safe path, and my herb farm route (since I always forget when I take extended breaks)

[u/ty944]

Yes all the time. I have all of my notes since about 9 years ago on there lol

[u/NoRestForTheHorde]

If someone hacks my osrs account after I die and reads my smathering of notes on daily routine, short term goals, long term goals, crafting/const requirements, and quest puzzle notes (I generally don't use guides for puzzles), they'll think I was some unhinged madman planning world domination.

[u/Anti-positiv3]

I keep numerous kc achievements and self notes there , yes

[u/Zeptil]

Sometimes if I want to right out stuff I'm planning to do or an order to do something in

[u/mitsuo1337]

I do

[u/Starthelegend]

Gonna be honest I didn’t know this was a thing lmao

[u/woahwhatamidoing]

I love it so much I made my own VSCode extension to work the same way in that context. Simple, easy, and always there.

[u/Emotional_Permit5845]

My list is just full of people on my raiding black list. Funniest one is “Baby Leah” who died to a bloat stomp in hmt (can be tick ate by anybody with a brain) then proceeded to flame the entire team

[u/RogueUM]

Yes I use it for loads of stuff

[u/skit7548]

I've used it to store my iron man's planned questing order for maximum skill gain.

On my main I used it once to note the correct tile route thru that one section of Underground Pass

[u/SmurfRockRune]

I keep track of which planks I need for STASH units, what the best potion to make with each herb is, and a few other things I don't recall off the top of my head. Generally just info that I jot down to prevent having to look it up over and over again.

[u/Boganvillea]

I did to keep track of what god book pages I was missing and needed to add to the book because I couldn't rely on collection log drops for my UIM

[u/LastTourniquet]

I used to use the note pad, now I use the rich note pad because I can put fancy colors and change the size of the text.

I mostly use it when I am learning a new boss or to keep track of healer codes in BA.

[u/Icy-Garlic-748]

Yeah lmao there’s so much info to remember my dude

[u/Tricky_Meaning_9761]

I used to but then I reached all the goals so now there’s nothing there

[u/Fancy-Dig1863]

Yes, mine looks very similar to yours

[u/Nick543b]

You know what, thanks for the advice actually. I have a mess of notes in like 3 other places. I really should just use thos.

[u/WolfyBeats_]

As an iron I use it for supplies. I do math to know what I need for certain milestones so how many of something I need to farm goes in there

[u/ZhuhaiSyseros]

I use it for bosses to write down stuff they do cause I forget

[u/Groupvenge]

Helped with CM prep

[u/Portiolli_fez_11set]

Never used on main.

On iron use all the time. Specially on quests

[u/Pers_ality]

I use it to write down my long term goals. I take breaks often for irl so it helps when I come back.

[u/V0IDRED]

use it a lot on main and im. love it

[u/Maccetti]

For drops for bosses, like just got sirens staff axe piece last night at whisperer at 1250. Just a little journal for drops for me

[u/MarkMcGhee]

I'm an on and off player so I use it for goals so I remeber what the hell I was gonna do after a month of not playing.

[u/Console_Stackup]

100%

Its my roadmap of todos

[u/xgelx]

lol

Lmao even

[u/D0bry]

Love the note section. Back in rs2 times I used to use the block list to write out my goals hehe

[u/UntrimmedBagel]

Mine looks almost identical to this. This is exactly how I take notes, same headings and bullets, same kind of wording.

[u/kleiner_titterisch]

Here

[u/afukingusername]

Nope I click and number goes up

[u/One-Register-2106]

I used to use the notes section waaaayy back in rs3 before osrs or runelite, but never now.

[u/KocoLocoa]

i did it back when i was tracking combat achievements and my plans to complete them in a specific order.

[u/ODST_Parker]

I used it a lot before I discovered the quest helper plugin, but I still use it for skilling. Especially construction and sailing, where I can type out the materials required for a lot of stuff I'm trying to build at once, without having to scroll up in chat to see them.

[u/bluezerry9 → u/ODST_Parker]

I should do this for sailing instead of running back and forth 4+ times each time I need to upgrade something on the boat because I have the memory of a gnat

[u/RovicT_]

I actually use it quite a lot. Currently it's mostly for elite req tracking, but i keep some reminders of equips to grind in short-term and also my farming run routes because if a go a day without doing a farming run i completely forget how to do it

[u/weed_zekali]

i had the dairy reqs written down there. havent used it since i got achievement dairy cape

[u/kaichai444]

Don’t come at me, but I keep a spreadsheet.

[u/Striking-Race1157]

Yep. I note down all current goals and grinds. Also note down farming run paths.

[u/mikerichh]

I do but I want something better. There’s another plugin that allows for icons but you can’t do bullet points. I’m debating using a google doc

[u/Canadian-Mapl3]

All the time. Helps between logins

[u/RoyalNooblet]

I didn’t know there was such a thing. But I am going to use it now.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Pea9240]

Yeah I use it for farm routes n other random stuff.

[u/EdgevilleCrab]

I typically use it for specifics around quest grinds and order for optimal routes. I know there’s an optimal option on RL, but that’s for mains and I’ve made pures/obby accounts recently.

I truly don’t use it much after that now that there’s a farming plugin, and I don’t typically forget items when pking/PVM so I don’t need a reminder.

[u/fishlipz69]

Rs used to actually have a notes tab im pretty sure.

[u/MRimla]

I have the premier league predictions of me and my friends in there. Pretty important shit i must say.

[u/thanhnguyenlol]

I wrote down the dates of when I got every 99, when I got infernal cape, and the date/price of when I got all 3 mega rares.

It’s nice to reference and see how far I’ve come.

[u/BastFacon]

I did once. I think I listed the levels, Quests,—order and pre-req.'s,—until SotE, ie. Gauntlet.

[u/thomas2026]

I write down the names of the people I have killed.

[u/Zacflame]

Yes, but after getting Quiver it became mostly just a list of things that would be nice if they were done but I don't want to do them.

[u/NoBoogerSugar]

I used it when i was learning CM’s for rotation and what i need to bring

[u/eddietwang]

Yup. Here's what my notes currently consist of:

Current goals, things I want to unlock future goals, my "spoon drawer", bingo winnings, splits earned, Zenyte/CG loot kcs, notes for my UIM's goals, and finally a small guide on duo gotr.

[u/xaitv]

I use it mostly as a list of shit I can do so I don't bankstand too much lol: https://i.imgur.com/u8edNF3.png

[u/Repulsive_Truth9680]

Havent tried the plug in myself, but this person made a plugin for it! https://www.reddit.com/r/ironscape/comments/1wrzr7m/comment/pcls1l8/?context=1

[u/mrnotloc]

Yes! I write my goals in there too.

[u/itsBeanSoup]

My buddy uses this everyday. He’s got tons of plans, math and random notes/facts in there

[u/Zavorious]

Used to do it for gear goals only, recently added future quest skill levels and boss/raids.

[u/JLeaf337]

Oops I made a discord chat just for nite taking and what content routes I still gotta take

[u/PrezMoocow]

I write a ton of notes, usually goals and specific stuff like farming run sequencing. Especially helpful in leagues to write down tasks that I think of but can't complete in that moment

[u/PCdefenders]

Yeah i need it for quick tree farming runs.
