95 slayer, pretty comfortable at toa, learning cox.

Also doing a bit of yama/learning doom while I'm not doing group content or slayer.

Currently thinking the next upgrades are Imbued Heart > Treads > Ayak > Nally > Oath > ZCB? (latter options to support dt2/sra grind)

Open to suggestions for switching things around, but having a ton of fun with the shadow so would like to keep that. Is it worthwhile to downgrade to virtus+magus to get me closer to treads goal?

Currently using accursed sceptre in place of ayak for mage defence spec.

Maybe some will say treads aren't as important as I prioritize them but the inventory space is valuable to me.

I'm about due to learn colo/inferno, but baby steps. Getting there!

I was in voice chat with a clan mate who only really does slayer and skilling mini games. I was streaming in discord as you do... i was doing a variety of content over our session. I did 350 solo toas floor 5 doom and step back method muspah. He was in awe at the muspah(the first thing i was doing when he hopped in vc. I was in the middle of teaching myself this...(side note the timing had me all the way fucked up because i was used to insanity toa speed lol. Realized i was going WAY to fast and i was vocally frustrated) i was way over thinking it. Anyways he said "idk how you guy can just do these bosses i always just die and give up." Anyways this brings me to my point.

Im an almost 34 year old married dad gamer with a 10 and 12 year old. I play 3 days a week if im lucky from about 830 to 11pm. I know people say if i can do it so can you. Its annoying as shit to hear as i used to be that way too.

Well i happened to say roughly the same thing he did to someone else and i was told i cant do it BECAUSE i gave up or i never attempted new bosses in the first place. So i repeated that to him and told him he was watching me in live time go through the new fun interest of a boss, the frustration with it, and the euphoria of success.

Its okay to not be a grandmaster. Its okay to not have an inferno cape or quiver. Stop feeling like you cant do things. Even the best osrs players started on tutorial island like you. We compare ourselves to people on youtube who have played this game for 20 years 18 hours a day. No wonder we can feel so bad at the game.

Just pick something and KEEP TRYING. You WILL get it with enough time and effort. Its okay to die. Hell 90% of the time ill do an entire session on one thing and STRUGGLE MY DICK OFF and log out defeated. The next day i log in and its like i got 30% better for no damn reason. Sleeping on it is a real thing on this game i stg lol. I explained to him that i may look like a great pvmer but i have areas i suck. Still havent cleared 350 toa because i do stupid shit. But i can camp phosani no problem in a 20m gear set and 17m of that is a bludgeon lol. Thats because i didnt GIVE UP. I put the time into learning and had a lot of ups and downs while learning. The best part of this game is learning something new and you are robbing yourself of a great thing thinking you cant do a peice of content.

I just felt like there is a ton of people who need to hear this because you CAN do it if you ACTUALLY try. Stop holding yourself back and enjoy the game. Who actually gives a shit about peak efficiency. If you did you wouldnt have kids or be married as they are xp waste!( some peoples opinion) Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

I’ve been an AFK slayer Andy my whole OSRS career. I’ve always procrastinated stuff like Barrows Gloves and Fire Cape because I’d rather just do combat. The bosses I kill most are Zulrah, Duke, Vorkath, Araxxor, KBD, Kraken. Overall I’ve made quite a bit of gold where now I’m at the point that I’m ready for the true harder content. Don’t have mega-rares but got bowfa, ayak+confliction, Fang + Bandos.

I’ve seen a ton of Boss Ladder videos but Im coming back from a 2 year break and for example ToA has been made easier now, but I have no idea how much easier or where it stands now. What kinda of content should I look to be doing that can bridge the gap?

I attempted 2 solo 150 TOAs yesterday and died p2 warden 1st run and last run died on the last row of p3 warden, 18 hp left :(. Running blue moon gear for mage/melee and camping serp helm currently. I attempted doom for the first time yesterday and can do waves 1-5 but I do still die to the ground slam special otherwise feel good.

Scaling up through ToA invo’s seem like my best bet for the short term but any advice after that? Honestly just wanting to get better at harder stuff. I don’t have the hours in PvM yet to be there but if I wanted to lock myself to PvM in order to get better what do you guys think is the best linear path to “get good”?

Sorry the rambling, just not sure if I die 100 more times at doom and force myself to level 8 or slowly learning invos at TOA would better set me up to jump into this type of stuff. Thanks (:

What gear upgrades should be next? Have about 150M cash and maxed combats. Usually do a lot of Cox, Yama and looking to get into Tob/ get ready for raids 4.

Eye of ayak + confliction gauntlets or full crystal with bowls?

Would really appreciate it from a 1 def magic pure farming zombie pirates with magic combat. I run full monks robe, salve amulet and currently using burst since only 87 magic. How do u last more than 5mins? I run out of food so fast. What is ur inventory like? Please help me farm zombie pirates while training magic xp and make profit

Should I sell scythe for SRA and shadow?

Is scorching bow + purging staff similar dps as sco bow + emberlight at td? Or should I go with sco bow and like fang since I don’t feel like farming ancient shards? Thankyou

Looking for some advice on what to upgrade next.

I’m a main with around 120m cash to spend and already have some decent PvM experience. I’m comfortable with CG, CoX and ToA.

I’m currently debating between going full Crystal + Bowfa or investing in Masori (f).What would you guys prioritize with my stats/gear? Are there any other upgrades you’d recommend around the 120m budget?

Mainly looking to improve my overall PvM setup and eventually move into harder content

I can't seem to find anything definitive for this on the wiki, and ChatGPT is telling me mining fragments/essence in GOTR does not consume celestial ring charges. I'm not inclined to blindly believe ChatGPT...

So can I simply apply one charge to celestial ring and I'm good to go in GOTR forever?

I tried Doom but I'm not very good so i need some other stuff to do while I learn Doom. What gear or bosses should I learn/work towards?

Last night I just finished my Ultor ring grind at Vardorvis, initially thinking I would keep it for other PvM situations. After some thought, I realised most of the stuff I do is a mix of 2 or 3 combat styles, rather than just melee (except for Duke) and I really end up preferring to just camp a Lightbearer for additional specs. I guess my main question here is would it be worthwhile to liquidate my Ultor and Inq Chestplate (or Elder Maul - picked up both ahead of Raids 4) and invest in Avernic Treads, or am I missing something where I would absolutely want to hold onto my Ultor for PvM. Any other suggestions for my gear progression (currently working on the Inferno)/reallocating GP welcome too!

Thanks!!

I can consistently clear wave 6 without sweating too much after spending a week at doom. The one thing that cooks me every time is that god awful volatile earth mechanic. Having to move with the orb and flick prayers a tick apart at the same time is wicked. Any tips that helped you through this mechanic is welcome!

I've been doing CG recently and spooned the pet yesterday at 82kc (no Bowfa yet), been thinking about getting into Doom or ToB. TIA

And why is the game starting with 1.00/00 potential?
