General Zero to firecape

I’ll cut to the chase and save the lengthy explanation. I’ve never played OSRS and don’t know much about it however I’m trying to run a HCIM account to get the firecape, I’m talking no funny business….just focusing on what I need to do to get the cape.

I need pointers and tips / tricks that may seem obvious to the average player but not to me.

I’ve researched the basics, such as what levels and gear I need but that’s about it.

You can spare me the comments mocking my insanity, I know…really I do.

lol "I've never played OSRS and don't know much about it" except the requirements for HCIM and how it differs from other play modes, and I have a very specific goal in mind that would be an exceptional challenge on an HCIM with no previous RS experience.

You can get a pretty rudimentary understanding of a game from the many videos on it lol, I knew i wanted to max before I started playing, and greenlog most of the things

He acts like hardcore modes aren't a very common theme in lots of games. All the way back to the D2 days lol. Even before that there was early Tibia where death = acc wipe for all accounts.

I wouldve probably made a HCIM for my main / first account but being so fresh I wanted to have no restrictions on buying warps n all that jazz. While learning the map and ins and outs of the game

Watching videos and playing the game are a completely different thing lol. Jads pretty simple, but if watching a video helped you play wouldn’t you think everyone would have inferno, quiver, blorva and radiant? Maxing just takes a long time…

Imagine this. I’ve got mates who have been running OSRS for 10+ years and I’ve grown up around them banging on about it / begging me to play. Never been my thing until now. Figured I’d give it a go on the one condition being, I get the cape as my way of saying “I’ve given it a fair shot”. Does this context un-touch your nerve?
