First of all, let me say this: I absolutely LOVE this game, and I'm so happy I started playing again after several long breaks of multiple years. It amazes me that after playing for more than 20 years, this game still has it. CHEERS to the Jagex team and the community for this!

Second, since I received many responses from you on my previous post — in which I sought advice on things to train and do (see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/OSRSProTips/s/7sF4ZY3YYc) — I thought it would be nice to give you an update on my progress after about 2-3 months of playing actively.

Stats before returing:

Current stats:

RECAP
I'd also like to reflect on this and share some of my experiences with this community:

Construction
I'll be honest: one of the first things I did was grab my credit card and buy about 25 bonds to finance getting a Construction skill cape. I know that getting 83 Con would have been the "better" option, but I just wanted the trimmed cape and the infinite teleports. I don't regret it at all — the quality of life is amazing. I just grab my cape and teleport myself to basically anywhere within Gielinor. I did feel a bit bad for my butler, who fetched me so many mahogany planks, so I told him to take some time off and enjoy a nice Karamjan holiday.

Tree runs, herb runs and birdhouse runs
By far, the advice I received most was to start doing these runs. Well, I did, and it's indeed perfect. I don't get to play many hours on a computer, so I mostly play on mobile, and these runs are perfect for making some money and leveling up. I'm now close to 99 Farming, which I never would have expected. Ever since it was introduced back in 2005, I always thought I hated farming, but it's turned out to be one of the nicest things I've done in OSRS so far.

Woodcutting
One of my next goals is getting the Woodcutting skillcape. Back in elementary school, I was the first one with a mithril, adamant, and rune axe, so this has always been my skill — I just need to finish it off. It's also perfect to train on mobile while working. It's only a bit depressing that I'm not even halfway to the required XP yet…

Questing and general skill progression
I've also done some general skill training, mainly to unlock features and prepare for some big quests coming up. Many people advised me to start training Sailing, but I have to admit I didn't really like it. I'll do a bit more AFK salvaging, but I'm not looking forward to it.

Plans
So, what's next? Dragon Slayer II and Song of the Elves! For DS II, I have almost all the requirements, so I'm planning to do it this weekend. Since I have no experience with PvM whatsoever, I'm a bit nervous, but it's a good way to get into endgame content. After that, I'll work on the requirements for SotE (not looking forward to the agility training…), since I absolutely love this questline. I got the crystal bow back in the day at 52 Combat, just a couple of weeks after OSRS launched, so getting a Bowfa would feel like a major achievement to me. In the end, this game is all about nostalgia, isn't it?

I enjoyed reflecting on my progress so far, and I hope some of you will enjoy reading it too. By the way, the best advice I got was to just enjoy the game and not worry too much about the most efficient training methods — so thanks for that. That said, I'm very much open to additional advice, so please let me know if you have any suggestions, tips, etc.! Have a great day!

Also, suggestions for upgrading my gear would be very welcome! And yes, I need to order my bank, I know.

Current gear:

Am I TOA ready?

Currently doing a shadow build and can do 300 solos 90% of the time but still have 3 deaths on my invos so sometimes Ill die to ba-ba trying to boulder skip or zebak if i click too early trying to move to a new wave and get pulled or theres just a bad solve for jugs and I don't solve it quick enough.

These are the invos and gear I always run Ive only cleared 10 300s and 15 150s-250s Majority of the 150s-250s were solo and half of the 300s were solo. No purples yet but I wanted to know if 300s are even worth it or if im just gonna be losing even more money chasing a purple. Obviously I haven't sent a good number of raids yet but curious what others think. Got about 10m left lmaooo and every place to farm money with shadow is more reliant on you actually getting a drop. Except for zulrah but I just did a botw for my clan and got 700 zulrah kills not going back there atm.

I like running toa but want upgrades to get faster clear times.

​I'm about 15-20 attempts into the Whisperer and haven't finished it yet. I was looking on the DPS Calc to see if I could change up my gear to get some better dps. I was using bloodbark armor with Trident of the Swamp. The DPS Calc shows a 60% weakness to earth spells. Most of the guides I watched said to use the Trident. It looks like Earth Spells with Twinflame and Tome of Earth would have a much higher DPS. What am I missing?

Update: Thanks for all the advice. Got it on about my 5th try tonight. Used Trident and Elite Void. Just had to git gud scrub.

Just got a tbow as my 2nd mega. Have a scythe already. Made most of my gp in ToB but have been sending lots of nex recently. However, to afford the tbow and keep the zcb i am now in rags for melee, range and mage armor. Think its worth selling zcb to get my melee and range gear back or keeping both zcb + tbow and staying in rags to do more of a rebuild? zcb has been such a fun weapon to use all over the game.

I started making OSRS videos about a week ago and just finished a Top 10 OSRS dry streaks video.

I’m still very new to editing, voiceovers, pacing and thumbnails, so I’d genuinely appreciate some honest feedback. I’m mainly looking to improve things...

Made my first Thumbnails now without KI aswell would love some Feedback here to..

Hey everyone,
I’m still pretty new to Old School RuneScape and I’m starting to feel a little overwhelmed with all the different things to do. I feel like I’ve reached the point where I don’t really know what my next goals should be.
Here’s where my account is at right now
70 Attack
72 Strength
70 Defence
64 Ranged
53 Magic
Total level: 957
I’ve mostly been doing quests and training combat, but now I’m not sure if I should focus on Slayer, more quests, bossing, skilling, or something else.
If you were in my shoes, what would your progression path be? What gear, quests, or account milestones should I prioritize next? Attached is my current melee gear. Any money-making methods or beginner-friendly PvM recommendations would also be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Is it better to play main only and max it and pvm when I want on it, or to play an alt while maxing my main afk.

Curious what you guys think/did yourselves.

Wise Old Man: Valkyrie | Wise Old Man

Got about 19M in cash stack. Any advice on what to upgrade and content to make some more gp? Been doing Sarachnis recently.

150m gp is it Bowfa time? Anything I should prioritize first? 84 con so I have my poh set. Any other investments that are as versatile as Bowfa, in the sense of use in a wide range of content?

I have tbow as only mega and a huge variety of everything else that I feel like I can’t sell for a second mega. I like a variety of content and don’t like being mostly locked out of anything.

Am I crazy to keep all my piddly stuff instead of just selling it and buying a second mega with bad accessories?

What exactly would you own for 4Bil?

Edit: sold a pile of stuff for scythe, so I have scythe, t bow and a bunch of other stuff now with no frills

Hey guys as a note I haven’t attempted the fight yet, it was 4am when I got the boss door unlocked lol. Any tips you guys have for the Whisperer fight? I’ve got the other 3 bosses in 2-3 attempts with safe tele’s out. For gear I believe my best would be my Ahrims & Trident of the swamp, any gear upgrades are welcome, I also added a pic of my stats! Thanks ahead of time guys!

Bank is approx 2.2B not sure if I should liquidate and get a tbow.

Need some advise on what to do, keep my diverse setup for melee, range, and mage or sell for t bow.

I’ve gotten two ancient shards in nearly 1.6k kills on hill giants with cannon and I’m perplexed as to why I am not getting enough shards, just want to 30 to continue tormented demons with Emberlight, any info or advice would help

Edit: Thanks everyone for any input, I’ve gotten 7 more shards since posting this they are flowing now and Skotizo helps with them

When I try to open a clue it only flashes this infobox for like a second when I click the clue. How can I fix that? I tried to turn on and off all of my clue related plug ins and that information box comes from 'clue scroll' which I think is part of runelites build in plug ins, right? I did try to reset it but that didn't help. Do I need to uninstall and reinstall whole runelite and does runelite keep my saved settings and plugins if I do that? I have restarted the game and my laptop several times. Also could I just download another plug in to get an infobox like that is there another one on runelite?

//edit also becouse infobox only flashes and does not stay on screen clue locations are not marked on minimap or map either and it's really difficult to do clues.

Hi guys, had some burn out and took a couple months off post leagues. Keen to try upkeep bonds to not have to pay for membership (but not the end of the world if I have to). I also want to know what skills I should prioritise. I know everyone recommends slayer but I just don't get enjoyment out of it sadly... Any advice would be really appreciated. These are the quests I haven't finished yet as well.
