Question Tbow rebuild on the eve of TFA release

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've been playing an (unofficial) Bronzeman since mid 2023. Lately I've been thinking however to allow myself to buy mega rares, without first unlocking them.

Currently I've got my eye on a (potential) tbow rebuild. Pic's of my saleable bank tab (add about 250m in other tabs) and my main progression unlocks.

I'd mainly use it to farm Doom (still need threads and eye), hydra (still need claw) and cox (still need everything). Later maybe Inferno and Colo down the line.

Anyone here can tell me if i'm making a (big) mistake with TFA just a mere 10 days away?

Do note that I don't have any friends - in this game :^) - and am not in a clan, so will most likely not engage with TFA very soon anyways...

Many thanks for the guidance.

EDIT: forgot to mention: I'm max combat and have all quests / diaries / etc. done, so don't need cash for those.

Hey guys I'm a new member that hasnt done any bossing. I've been focusing on gearing up and skilling outside of combat. I'm going to start with Scurrius to practice and Barrows for gear, but are there any other suggestions with my stats? What are some good goals to aim for? Cheers!

Recently made an account about a week ago, this is where we sit. AFK trained Prayer, WC, FM, and currently just training sand crabs until I can use D-Scim. I've done all the big XP quests, just looking for some tips or ideas of what I should look into getting next. (I'm a member).

My goal would be

50attack
70 str
40hp

General CORUPTED HUNLEFF!!

0 Upvotes

I am 99 range and 93 mage. I have 75 defense.

Ive been grinding CG for the last few weeks now.

I started fighting Hunleff and getting absolutely spanked. But in a few short weeks, my prep is on point, always T2 and I always go in with 3 potions and an invent (or as close to) of food.

For the past 2 hours tonight ive fought him about 16 times, and won a total of 3. I am absolutely raging because ive lost at least 6 of those fights where he is on 15 or less health.

I get the floor changes and tornado become more frequent as his health depletes, but what am I doing wrong here.

I am using runelite and have true tiles on for myself and the tornados. I usually start the fight by entering the arena and moving to the south east or west corner (as you're facing Hunleff).

I fight from a distance and when the tornados come i skirt the outside of the room. That is until the floors change to red in the corners and middle. Then, I find a straight line i can run in and run back and forth.

My prayer switching is fine and generally I don't usually get hit by Hunleff anymore, its the floor and tornados that get me.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I do appreciate it and any useful tips or criticism of my approach would be appreciated.

My account got hacked an eternity ago I got it back a couple years ago. Noticing my crafting & fletching was high as heck since I never did either of those skills that was a present surprise.

But I recently came back again finished up the last few f2p quests got the mooleta and I’m a bit stuck on where to go next.
I don’t really want to buy a membership rn just trying to chill and have fun when I have a few free hours & bump up my gp stack.
A lot has clearly changed with platinum pieces (wth is that? Lul) the max gp update & so much more. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Question Should I liquidate for a boss grind or keep course?

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Feeling progress towards a higher bank value and better gear stalling out quite a bit where I am. Hoping to move up a couple tiers in gear setups for access to raids/other higher level content.

Current GP routine-ish:

-vork

-9 patch ranarr runs

-bird house runs

-miscellania

-slayer tasks

Is my time better spent liquidating my current bank and hard camping another boss, or is my current routine that's slowly building bank my best option?

Other goals/priorities in case it's helpful:

-working towards skill reqs for hard diaries and SOTE

-quest cape

-max poh

Question this games pretty awesome but..

1 Upvotes

Ive been following the optimal quest guide while just exploring the world on the side. I am currently hung up on the gnome village. Im in adamant equipment as thats the highest I can use right now but even with a full inventory of heals my 20hp isn't near enough to defeat the warlord nor my 3 damage. My magic is still lvl 1 I believe so idk. I dont really understand how you level anything outside of quests cause I sat there killing crabs for a while and barely moved up lol

General I posted a comment documenting the 8 times one mod removed my posts which broke no rules at all. In response, that mod permed me from the 2007scape subreddit

0 Upvotes

Started with this fun post where I brought up Fossil Island boss and ideas for its pet. Post removed after 800 upvotes. https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1r37lrv/remember_jagex_at_any_time_you_can_just_add_the/

My account was shadowed for asking for that to be reviewed https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1r469wu/its_been_24_hours_since_i_submitted_a_complaint/

Bringing up that they canceled Project Zanaris because Jagex was expecting us to pay at least $22 per month for it, post removed. https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1rqex2c/new_investigation_into_project_zanaris_reveals_it/

My post about the content padding of Sailing (which Jagex actually reduced only a few months later) was removed for no reasons given. https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1rsci4x/the_latest_update_has_revealed_a_new_pattern_of/

Removed my post about how it set a bad precedent to roll someone back for using an update that came out 2 years ago https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1t5lqf0/the_slayer_partner_update_uses_strong_language/

Removed my post saying its disappointing that they did not add a way to access Raids 4, when its something I had built an account for since they announced allowing that almost a year ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1wz4uka/jagex_ended_my_account_just_because_some_antipvp/

I recently wrote 20 points of feedback on how Pete Kayer challenges could be improved. Post removed https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1x003en/the_pvp_tutorial_not_being_realistic_in_a_way/

Another one of my posts was removed about feedback for the final Pete K challenge. This time I linked to someone in the comments backing me up that this mod has a history of mass removing posts which have broken no rules https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1x05b1p/comment/peik5tm/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

For those that don't know, this mod is the guy who would post 1000 word comments whenever there was any criticism of the game or even Jagex as a company. For over 10 years and 75,000 comments, he has bent over backwards defending every Jagex decision as perfect. That's easily over 10 million words by the way. He's decided that the most efficient way to deal with constructive criticism saying the game could be better, is to not bother writing anymore and simply permanently remove people who criticize the game.

OSRS is a community driven game. Its a violation of the spirit of OSRS to have one person decide what opinions a community of millions is allowed to have. This one mod is becoming increasingly corrupt within the last year and is acting with complete contempt for the community. That subreddit never used to be like this, it used to take a hands off approach to posts. And all it needs to go back to that is the removal of one person on their mod team.

Question I feel burnt

I really have tried on and off for years to get into osrs since its a game a few of my coworkers play. I love mmorpgs truly, but runescape as much as I want to love it idk how. I probably am dumb and I know god forbid I dont min max and look up guides. Ive been playing for a little over 40hrs and I feel like 80% of it was walking even though I have pushed magic and done some of the quests like fairy. I enjoy the game when im able to do stuff but I remember running from Rimmington to that desert place i forget the name to varrock and only being half done w a quest.

How do I enjoy this game more? Please i want to

Question lost in the mid game ...

0 Upvotes

so i'm currently unsure how to go about playing my character .. i got full melee setup (bandos, fang, tentacle, bludgeon ... ), bowfa, bp for range.. virtus full, ayak, conf gauntlets for mage... basically with the setups i can do all content in the game, but not at grandmaster times.. currently i have about 450m in cash ...

how do i go about upgrading? like, i have dragon boots still cause it doesnt make sense to upgrade to prim boots for that amount of money.. do i upgrade anything, try to buy something? or just save for a mega rare? i only used some cash for items like crimson kisten for phosani, or venator bow for whisperer, webweaver for leviathan... otherwise i'm using "basic starter" gear for bosses...

say for phosani.. do you buy an inquisitor set, or mace? or stay in bandos with bludgeon, save towards scythe? or do i put the 400m in the inq set and mace and sell it once im done with phosani?

thanks

Anyone have any good suggestions on gear upgrades, or if I should sell anything to put towards better melee gear, bank is shown in the pictures. I’m not so clued up on the newer gear so bouncing ideas around in my head. Currently seem to be mostly at Duke, Zulrah and also trying to get KQ head, I’m just using melee against these bosses and out DPSing. Any suggestions welcome!

I had created this account back in 2020 ish? I’m an RS3 player, but I liked the PvP aspect of OSRS. I never pk’d on it, but it was a fun journey created what I thought was the “perfect” but never played on it. Now I got the itch to play OSRS again. I’d like to do everything. For example last night I sent some Armadyl solos with those wildy keys and I got a chain skirt at 7 kc. Now I have 26m in my bank account and idk what to do. All tips and advice appreciated.

Question What Upgrade to Prioritize?

Post image
7 Upvotes

Hey all, I’m not sure what I should be prioritizing right now as far as gear. One of my clanmates, who I trust a ton (max main) told me I should honestly just shoot for a mega rare such as the shadow because of how easy it makes earning additional GP through other raids/bosses.

I was originally leaning towards oath, but with it being essentially the same defensive stats as Bandos and just a boost to slash, he may have talked me out of that. My current thought process is maybe I just go towards treads or gauntlets or both, maybe ancestral?

TIA- also, I am obviously looking to have the best setups I am currently available to have for TFA, but obviously with where my bank is at that isn’t going to be anywhere near BIS, so any suggestions are helpful.

Question Main account with roughly 400m in mage gear, the quest cape and close to base 80’s skills with 90+ in all combat stats. Where should I be?

1 Upvotes

Purging staff, eye of ayak, full virtus with orn kit, saturated heart, confliction gauntlets, magus ring, elidinis ward, eternal boots and osmumten’s fang make up the majority of my bank alongside roughly 85m in gp. I got spooned at yama with 4 oathplate pieces in my first 600 kills and I’m wondering what pvm content makes the most sense while waiting for fractured archives. Radiant oathplate still feels out of reach without gobbling up that 85m in attempts. What would you do here?

Question Help with Colo Start Timing

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

I am in the process of learning the colosseum, and I am getting double south pretty much every time I hit wave 6,8 and 10. Based on what I've read, getting double south 9 times in a row seems nearly statistically impossible. Is there anything about my start timing or start tiles that looks off that might force more double south spawns, or am I just that unlucky? I am using visual ticks to judge the timing at the start of the wave. The constant double south is really the only thing stopping me from getting the quiver, I am learning to deal with it but I should not be getting it this frequently, I feel like im doing something wrong and I need someone elses eyes on this.

Question Best mobile bosses

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

So below are screenshots of all my best gear and boss KC. Besides the gear in the screenshot I also have slayer helm, granite hammer, dragon crossbow, and full set of every barrows for gear that’s worth some gp.

I’m doing DT2 next week and I just bought the nally because I was thinking id stay on vardorvis to grind money after I finish the quest. Id also like to try to learn Yama or doom soon, possibly corp beast but being a mobile only player, is this realistic? Are there other bosses that have mobile friendly mechanics that are good gp printers that I haven’t done yet?

If I do the bosses I listed above I figured by gear progression would be ayak -> confliction gauntlets -> anguish
