In spirit of the old 2007scape question threads on reddit, I thought to start making threads in the same fashion, MK II.

Post your questions, thoughts on Sailing, goals, achievements and so on!

I’ll start, I’m currently taking a break as I had a drunken fall last week and am in hospital for a while with a fractured shinbone; fractured wrist; pulled tendons in my other knee and a smashed laptop; so no walking or RS for a while!

Eagerly awaiting to get back to ToB and finishing off the maxing grind (Only 94 slayer left!). I’m also contemplating getting a steam deck for RuneLite – does anyone use it? How does it compare to mobile?

Also personally hyped for Varlamore!!

Cheers :-)

    Excited for the future updates! Also y’all should give the mobile client a try if you haven’t already. I use it specifically for doing resource gathering and it’s quiet easy.

    Well, I went from 2080 total last thread to 2090 now, which isn’t a great pace if I’m trying to max. Have done more miscellaneous clog stuff and a clan bingo lately, so not skilling as much. But hey at least I never have to get another Merfolk Trident now. Still working towards finishing up elite diaries and I think elite combat achievements are making their way onto my radar of something I want to accomplish. So gonna have to start being decent at the game, at some point here.

      As someone who is nearly maxed, pacing really helps.

      I think I went from around 2k total to near 2.2k (my max since I’m a pure) in about 2-3 years on and off. I’ve mixed a lot of raids/bossing/pking in with it…

      Sometimes I’ll have a big xp session or other times I’ll take a break and chuck all my pvm/pk stuff onto my alt.

      Combat Achievements seem a good way to make some money and get some nice perks (2min thralls I’m looking at you!). I can definitely do elites, probably masters but as far as I’m aware you have to be a zerk at least to get the zuk helm :-)

    I’m a regular ironman that just got 1500TL the other day… and I feel so frustrated with the wiki. Looking up strategies that they describe as “low level/beginner” for things like Dag Prime, and the gear it recommends is full specific Barrows and other things that would themselves need gear setups to get.

    I think I might just go and get my ass kicked a bunch and try to keep from that feeling of “man I really should be using this gear…”

      Wouldn’t worry too much about that, in general stats and weapons are way more important than gear. You could probably manage DKS with ancients, a magic shortbow and a dragon scim. Blood spells are super handy too!

      Just out of curiosity, do you mean Dagannoth Rex? The Zerker ring is a really solid upgrade, the other two are tiny DPS upgrades – being in the endgame the only place I use Seers ring is for Theatre of Blood if I’m freezing (pure btw), I haven’t used the Archer ring in yonks, lightbearer or suffering are usually way better for ranging.

        I was setting my sights on Prime because of the dragon axe (unless I goofed and it’s one of the others). Priority #1 is probably just unlocking ancients and grinding fletching to get magic short, haha 🙃

    I’m a UIM and wanted to go to volcanic mine, so I gathered enough Numulite for permanent entry (3k). Unfortunately, I failed to check my kudos and I’m like 20 kudos short of being able to enter.

    So I either need to grind out a bunch of quests or give up on this Numulite for now. So while I debate, I’m trying to grind out Camdozaal collection log, mainly for 5 more kudos from the relics. I just wanted to free up one extra inventory space but this is turning into a One Small Favour type plan.

        That’s the charm! Make one big goal, and it shatters into a hundred small, achievable ones.

      It’d be pretty slow, but couldn’t you either do ammonite crabs or sulliceps to get fossils and finish off those last kudos?

        I got all of my numulite so far from ammonite crabs. I’ve gotten a fair few fossils but I was hoping to avoid going back. Probably would’ve been easier though lmao. Haven’t tried sulliceps though so I’ll look into it. Thanks for the tip
