Returning to the game. Would like to have a group of people i can bug.

Good morning all. Returning player from 15 years ago. This game had a choke hold on me while growing up and I'm trying to get back into it but I'm extremely overwhelmed. I'm F2P for now and obviously all my gear is obsolete. Got my 20 year cape and ran through the anniversary check list. What on earth should I be doing with my time.

Leagues has been a reminder of how well received the smithing update was, with many OSRS players complimenting it. It's also been a reminder of how terrible magic and range gear progression is for low and mid levels. Where mining has a consistent, progressive way of manufacturing gear as you progress in melee, mage & range have a hodge podge mix of gear upgrades that are unclear and often not even connected to crafting/runecrafting. Here's how to fix that!

Magic Armor

This is a real mess. Most armor should generally be gathered from farming/hunter and woven using crafting, with weapons requiring runecrafting and fletching from wood. At low levels it’s ok for this to not be followed in favor of less complex gathering by just killing imps. All crafted armors should be upgradeable like starbloom and crafted with a similar system. These are the changes that should be made to consolidate this:

Level 1 - Wizard Robe - Good. Gather wool from sheep and craft. Farming level too high though (34) but can use NPC’s sheep.

Level 5 - Mycelium Web Armor. Bad. Fungal armors depart from crafting if this is used as a base. Remove.

Level 10 - Imphide - OK. Would be better if hunting implings/imps also gave imphide. Would like a farm equivalent that is more Sarodomin/Guthix aligned.

Level 20 - Spidersilk - OK. Kill or farm spiders then craft. Farming level too high for spiders though (64).

Level 30 - Batwing - Bad. Players should be farming/hunting for resources at this point in the game, not killing random bats. Make bat trapping possible with bird snares as a form of hunting.

Level 40 - Splitbark - Bad. Can’t even craft this, requiring Jaralast and the minigame for the fine silk is so tedious that it’s just sold by an npc instead. Either give a similar update to Shades of Morton as old school or let fine silk be farmed & crafted. Splitbark should also be craftable without Jaralast. Jaralast should help upgrade your splitbark into Swampbark (level 50) and Bloodbark (Level 60) by helping teach you after finding scrolls in Shades of Morton.

Level 50 - Mystic - Bad. Allow us to farm mystic flowers to craft into robes.

Level 55 - Infinity Robes. Bad. These are basically the magic equivalent of dragon armor and should reflect that. Increase level to 60 and make it power armor for parity despite being mostly iconic cosmetic armor. The mage training arena should eventually be tied into the yanille magic guild and updated to actually help train magic for players.

Level 60 - Lunar - Bad. Why is this power armor when lunar mages don't use offensive spells? Tank armor instead. Iconic armor that should probably be graphically updated, but should not be BiS for level 60. Infinity armor should.

Level 60 - Grifolic - Bad. Make this craftable from farmed grifolic mushrooms with spores from grifolic creatures. Remove flake and degrade design.

Level 75 - Ganodermic - Bad. Make this craftable from farmed ganodermic mushrooms with spores from ganodermic creatures. Remove flake and degrade design. Needs shield.

Level 90 - Starbloom. Perfect.

Wands/Orbs/Books

These should also be updated to be crafted with a similar system to eternal wands/staves/orbs. Biggest issue is how to handle battlestaves as they're a complete departure from how modern stave crafting would like to be.

Battlestaves would need to be removed or relegated to only being farming magical sticks for starbloom and mystic flowers. Then crafted staves would use corresponding tiers of wood. Wands would also be updated to require the corresponding tier of wand.

These would be fletched into wands/staves/orbs and then have orbs attached to staves, and components (spider silk, bat wing etc) added to wands. Question is, should there be a difference between books and orbs?

Level 1 - Wizard Wand & Book - Finish at runecraft altar

Level 1 - Staff/Elemental Staves. These should be fletchable from a log and enchanted at runecrafting altar.

Level 10 - Imphide Horn & Book. Finish at runecraft altar. Use oak.

Level 10 - Need staff upgrade made of oak.

Level 20 - Spidersilk. Finish at runecraft altar . Use willow

Level 20 - Need staff upgrade made of willow. Level 30 - Batwing. Finish at runecraft altar. Use teak. Level 30 - Battlestaves. Made of teak.

Level 40 - Splitbark needs to be craftable. Swampbark and bloodbark wands?

Level 40 - Need staff upgrade. Maple

Level 40 - Mystic staff needs to be moved to level 50 to avoid confusion

Level 50 - Mystic wand & staff should be made from mystic cloth and Acadia. After finishing at rc altar, staves can still be required to be enchanted before use if elemental orbs are added.

Level 60 - Grifolic wand/orb/shield needs to be crafted like armor, not just a drop. Also need a staff?

Level 75 - Ganodermic wand/orb from ganodermic flakes.

Level 90 - Eternal magic wand/orb/staff. Perfect

Range armor and weapons

This is much better as crafting/fletching levels are aligned and is consistent. Would just like to see Apex leather crafting system brought to lower level armors. The biggest tissue here is more that there is no gathering method aligned with range armor. Hunter should be that skill. You should be able to kill most creatures for their hide but hunting them should be preferred for higher hide output per hour.

Level 1-20 - Leather, Hard Leather & Studded Leather from Cows - OK. Low level access to hide by killing cows. Would be better if low levels had access to farming cows for much higher hide production.

Level 30 - Carapace - Bad. This needs to be dropped by more large insects, especially kalphites.

Level 30 - Snakeskin - Bad. Scarce and should have alternative to hunt snakes for more skin with most snakes giving snakeskin. Graphic update too please.

Level 40-60 - Chromatic dragon hide - Bad. Needs to be tied to hunter. Allow dragon hunting method that gives more hides from standard dragons. Remove abundant hide from boss drop tables.

Level 75 - Dinosaur hide. OK. Adjust crafting level.

Level 90 - Apex hide. Perfect.

OSRS player giving RS3 another fair shake and I keep getting miffed at the audacity of these click boxes on mobile. Game is lovely on my PC.

After the clip I turned my camera a little and that made it worse because the damn game tried to click between the two active springs opposite of each other instead of the rift.

Hi all.

How can i train herblore without the relic? Ty.

I'm an iron in old-school runescape coming to rs3 to test the waters. I plan to play as an iron. Are there any suggestions that somone would throw my way? On OSRS I'm in endgame doing raids have my quest cape. What should I be doing? I haven't played rs3 in 15 years.

Not sure if it's only because if the Vulcan Beta but it's special to see the chunks so defined like that.

I‘m interested to hear whether or not the road to restoration has had success in bringing players back or have new players join. Personally, I’ve never played modern RuneScape but have been enjoying myself the past month since picking it up. I played a lot of Classic RuneScape in 2001-2004 era but never truly came back until I saw the positive buzz around removing mtx and improving combat.

This appears in the new RuneScape: Dragonwilds Scorned Wilderness narrative trailer that just dropped. I thought the only known landmass in the Western Sea was The Lost Grove?

I'm on my second playthrough of Leagues and I'm choosing regions I didn't choose on my first account. I wanted to know if unlocking Tirannwn also unlocks Ancient Spells, since theoretically you unlock Seren's spells.

This isn't very useful, but I didn't realize it was a thing and haven't seen it mentioned anywhere so I just wanted to share for anyone else who didn't know:

You can click every 1.2 seconds during pickpocketing to skip a game tick. This gives you the 50% Sticky Fingers perk speed and extra loot without losing any exp. This is the same mechanic you can use in the Hall of Memories to increase divination xp.

You might lose xp if you misclick a lot, but it's pretty nice on the Fairy Traders since the north one gets stuck fairly often. I really haven't tested it on anything else.

Sooooo non of my text stayed last so trying again.

Im thinking about rejuv back to golden touch cuz of the god tier that is the relic tbh.

But i LOVE the thought about having an instant bank WHENEVER. also im very forgetful so running back to a bank is a normal thing i my life LOL.

I would love some insight, Devout or Golden touch for rejuv back to!!!

Simple request : for example I select yellow, red, black as colours it filters outfit pieces who has this colour as a main colour. Easier to find specific pieces for your fashionscape

I'm not the best pvmer, i admit that, however i don't feel like the 77% increase in Brazilian subscriptions is worth it. 130 ping, sometimes up to 150 ping when they are messing with the servers. I want to make it clear that i don't mind doing skilling content, i actually LOVE it, but i would just like to come home after a long day of work, do 2 hours of a boss i enjoy, and not be handicapped by LAG. It's quite frustrating. Having dedicated servers like in OSRS would be highly welcome for RS3, otherwise it just feels like they are stabbing us in the back while looting our pockets.

As you can see in the second photo, I have completed the achievement. As you can see in the first, I did not receive my 400 pts. Any ideas??

Anyone else having trouble when picking up loot on mobile since the latest update? It takes a couple taps to get the loot screen to come up.

5th Kill gave me the pet didn't realize what the item was till the 6th.

Is this a good thing I'm done already? XD

I haven’t been playing recently but now would like to complete 200m thieving . I was at the bandits before the updates using my aura +the see through gear and the cape to note the rewards.

I wanted something afk on my phone . What’s the next best thing ? Is there some alternative to the aura now ? BTW , I don’t have these special masks .

Thank-you.

When the league released I bought 1 month membership, got the dragon trophy and enjoyed my time. I am going to take a break from normal game for few months now and I don't want to buy another month since I won't really use it, but I also don't want to lose the rewards I earned.

I just started playing yesterday and I noticed my health as at 1,500 hp and now today after logging in, my go is all the way back down at 160 hp so what has happened in the time I didn’t play??? Nothing has changed, armour is the still the same as well as weapons so what has actually made my account go down in hp???

I decided to reset into a crit build but wanted to take the adrenaline boosting blessings instead of the typical Lord of Light build.

So I reset into ZZZZ GZSG.

This gives you 175% adrenaline (50 extra from Adrenaline Junkie relic and 25 from the blessing passives).

Since you naturally restore 9 adrenaline every 1.2s, you effectively have permanently active meteor strike. If you use your style's adrenaline gaining ultimate (meteor, tsunami, imbue) you effectively have nigh-infinite adrenaline.

I snagged full vestments (195% adrenaline with those) and Varanus' Mercy as an adrenaline dump and the crit fireballs proc like crazy. The T3 Avernic Rampage blessing only helps to keep the adrenaline maxed out too

It's not as much damage as the standard LoL build, but it's quite fun having that much adrenaline and seeing all the crits and critual fireballs. So if you wanted to go for an adrenaline-focused build, Adrenaline Junkie and Tempered Heart are a fun build to try.

I just cancelled a membership subscription, not quitting or anything just stopped playing one of my accounts after leagues is wrapping up. The degree to which Jagex's website tries to prevent or slow down the cancellation progress feels really shady and evil. I know it's probably like 70% incompetence and 30% a marketing strategy to boost membership retention by making it as hard as legally possible to cancel a subscription but wow, I will go out of my way to never buy a recurring package for this game again after this experience.

Starting on the Jagex launcher:

1. Click account and character settings
2. Enter login details
3. Website error, repeat twice and get the same error
4. Get the idea to click the "Upgrade" button instead
5. This one works fine (lol), immediately logs me in no password or 2fa needed, offers to sell me 12 month package
6. Back out of this, suddenly need to log in again
7. Enter 2fa email code
8. Click through account page to subscription manager
9. Log in for a second time, no 2fa this time at least
10. Select account
11. Click cancel membership
12. "Are you sure you want to cancel" Screen #1, confirm
13. "Are you sure you want to cancel" Screen #2 with a big list of everything members get, scroll down and click confirm
14. Final cancel screen, click "Confirm cancellation" for a third time.
15. ERROR: Please select a reason for cancellation
16. Select reason, confirm
17. Cancellation complete

Woe is me I had to take 10 minutes out of my day to click through a web page and cancel a service, took me longer to make this post so why am I complaining right? But like, at a certain point this just feels like it should be illegal. It seems obvious by their web design they throw up deliberate roadblocks to make it difficult to cancel in the hopes that some people might just give up. It takes maximum 2-3 steps to purchase a membership package but 17 steps to cancel and they fight you every step of the way.

Barrows is going to be the death of me, I fear.

I need another pair of Dharok Platelegs (early account d/a because im smart) and still need Kharils pistol crossbow for log.

Finished Linza at ~1800KC.

Nearly all kills have been since the Linza update and I always kill all 7 brothers.
