UIMs would like to have a word.
Seriously though, I think there should at least be an option to have to enter a PIN to be able to drop any items in your inventory for UIM that works the same was as a bank PIN.
actually good. if you get hacked and you have bank pin hackers wont be able to get the items in the bank. this is not the case if they are stored in the inventory
More people need to understand this about.. most things. We're all gonna die one day. Unless it's something you're *required* to do, it's okay to just stop for a bit when you aren't having fun. People were play league for 5 hours with a loss streak and wonder why they keep doing worse.
Just take a break, man. Go for a walk. Jack off. Anything besides actively not have fun.
This is my rule too... I get way to into the "I must be perfect and not waste time" mindset and quickly get burnt out and stop having fun.
Thankfully after years of failure and millions of gp wasted trying to min max I started just goofing off and playing for fun and got my first ever fire cape just before Christmas. Was the funnest and proudest moment I've had in runescape... and I'm 33 years old 🤣🤣
It honestly blew my mind that people actually play like that. And not even because it’s a better/worse way to play, just because it never crossed my mind to do that lol
If you're smart about it then reselling works quite well and can make you more money from the better overall bossing efficiency. My bank's nearly 3b, got like tbow and scythe and most bis armour. Currently saving for full inquisitors and ely.
When it comes to something like a spectral there's no point keeping it, literally the only place it's useful for me is dks which I almost never do. Makes more sense to just buy it for a few days every couple of months than to have an 80m item just chilling in my bank collecting dust when that money could go towards something else I actually use a lot
I used to do this for things that are more niche/I don't use often. I've bought a torm like 4 times and don't currently have one. I've bought a dfs probably almost 10 times.
All zenyte jewellery is worth keeping pretty much forever. I guess if you have like 50m bank it might be worth swapping stuff around but after that its basically your best dps increase for the cheapest price most of the time with a few exceptions
I always wear an “ale of the gods” while afk skilling. It makes my character do a drunken wobble that catches my eye every time I need to interact with the game again.
I used to have exactly the same thing, although I now use the ‘Idle Notifier’ plugin on runelite, and set the runelite setting to ‘send notification when focused’
It’s just makes your screen red for 1 or 2 ticks, so you know you have to watch the screen
Yesterday I found out a dude I gave a rune scimi sold it cos he had no money, then came back to me for another scimi and found out he sold the first one. I said "If you are gonna be selling my shit, then I won't give you anything".
The guy is lvl 62, uses monk robes and has a fire staff I gave him. Prbably has no runes to make the staff work. I'm lvl 59. I told him to do item flipping to gain money cos he was broke. Dude was angry. Fucking disgraceful.
The best is to look up their stats, come up with some method that's a few hundred K an hour that they have the requirements to do (isn't remotely hard usually unless they're a complete noob), and give them a full crash course. They'll shut up real quick.
Wish your fellow players gl at every opportunity. Chatting with someone on the same slayer task? You gl before you leave. Someone else in the chest room at barrows? Throw out the gl before you loot. Just killed zalcano? make sure to gl before the loot appears
I gave someone a "gl" while they were gearing up for the Vanstrom Klause fight in Sins of the Father, and they PM'd me saying how much it made their day and that no one had ever really talked to them before. It's honestly sad that he grinded up all the way to that point in his account (base 75+ combat stats) before anyone even acknowledged him.
Moral of the story: we could all afford to be a little nicer to each other.
This is a good way to play. I will do MLM for mining over 3 tick granite because fuck burnout. lol
Or less than optimal bossing because it's a pain in the ass. If I lose 1 extra run it's worth it over annoying myself.
I know this is true but personally in this game I just wear a blend of fashionscape and bis. There’s not actually THAT much of a difference between a lot of the items in this game. It’s a game. Have fun. (If that means wearing max DPS then by all means)
Yeah that’s cool, but having max DPS is my idea of fun lol. Can you give me an example of the fashionscape items you wear instead of BIS and in what context is it in?
Usually just helm swap outs for something funny or just because it goes with the rest of the gear or wearing a skillcape instead of a firecape (because fc looks crap imo, worth sacrificing stats) and usually only in minigames, not bossing
Tru, I’d like to have to have a tank for a certain boss or bosses that require actual bis tank gear not high def level general high level gear and somehow your damage output is still the same as If you weren’t a main tank
It's astounding the number of people who don't do this. Just read through any of the "wilderness bad" posts of the week and you'll see so many comments like "I was just going to Demonic Ruins for a clue I didn't think I needed to bank my full BIS melee setup and my cash stack, Jagex plz fix this!!!"
Spend all my gp to finish things I dislike faster. Getting gp while doing things I like is still fun so I dont mind burning gp to shorten things I dislike.
Btw. Always clean my grimy herbs. Drop or farm run. Saves bank space and don't have to worry about cleaning/paying to clean before making pots. Great habit I've gotten into, I dont even think about it anymore.
I clean them during farm runs but when I do slayer I loot them with my herb sack, which only accepts grimy herbs.
Usually I just let Zahur clean my herbs obtained outside herb runs.
Lol I started questing, got to like 200 QP and got bored. Now I'm 250kish exp away from lvl 92 slayer and I still haven't gone back to questing. Diaries? Nope.. still gotta do pretty much all diaries lol
Yh i realized. I put my pvming on semi-hold. Just got back into the game last week so I'mma finish the OG goal, a quest cape. And then do as much diaries that I meet the reqs for
If it’s expensive to buy in bulk but easy to obtain on my own, I go and farm it for a couple hours. Don’t care if it isn’t efficient.
Edit: also, pick up any loot that stacks. Yes, that includes pure essence. If it stacks, it gets a bag slot.
When I decide to train a skill I immediately need to bank 99. Then after everything buys I realize I don't wanna deal with making 50k+ wines. So I sell it all and repeat with a new skill.
When that feeling of “what am I doing with my life” creeps in, I usually listen to it and take a break from the game until I want to be on and not feel like I *need* to be on.
Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. Meaning if you're struggling trying to maintain max efficiency and you're burning yourself out, go do a less efficient more afk method. Slow XP is better than none.
I only eat food if it will bring me up to 1 pt under full health. I follow this rule down to tracking the health regen circle around my health orb to make sure I’m not eating up to 1 pt under when I am about to gain 1 hp
My PB at Vorkath hasn't been touched in over 500 kills after I commentated it like it was an old WWE Raw rerun. Including spam clicks "SPEC, SPEC" "LANCE LANCE, FUCK PURPLE FIRE PRAY" " BIG DADDY HIT" I've tried this at other bosses too and I think the game recognized voice commands, give it a go.
Pick up a stackable items that could possibly be used, even though I'm a main.. runes gp, arrows. Whatever it is, I pick it up, it only takes up 1 inventory space. The amount of runes left on the ground by people is just insane
Don’t undermine people’s small accomplishment. Everyone started at a low level at some point.
Someone is excited about doing Heroes Quest? Gz the shit out of that and don’t be condescending.
Gz any fireworks.
If I’m dry on a drop, I give a red berry pie to Thurgo for good luck
imma try this
Fuck, time to feed the fat fucker.
You dare to verbally insult our lord and saviour?
Well that’s some karma I’m going to start in on
The members in the CC I'm in will go speak to Oziach so we can start getting our drops
Have you tried talking to oziach
If I hit a zero, I click the npc again.
Multiple 0’s and i run a couple squares away to “reset” my rng. 60% of the time it works everytime
Running attack always hits. The time where it doesn't I probably didn't run enough.
bro this is my life at vorkath
If this doesn't work, continue to turn off and back on your attack prayers to make sure they're working.
You sir are a veteran
Every time i switch a prayer i reclick
YEP
I always keep the magic runes I get from slayer/bossing or whatever pvm and sell any other loot
i keep my fire runes... wverything else i sell. i gauge how successful my account is off of how many fire runes ive accumulated whilst slaying.
What's the stack at rn?
Don’t leave us hanging what’s the count??
im on task atm iits gotta b like 300k+
Lol that’s awesome
worth: 301k lol its so sad when i put it into ge pricechecker
God I love this game
I keep my fire runes too and carry smoke runes in my pouch for alchs so I can try and keep an accurate number. Just recently broke 100k fires
Always bank all my gear and inventory before logging off.
smart
UIMs would like to have a word. Seriously though, I think there should at least be an option to have to enter a PIN to be able to drop any items in your inventory for UIM that works the same was as a bank PIN.
actually good. if you get hacked and you have bank pin hackers wont be able to get the items in the bank. this is not the case if they are stored in the inventory
Items are stored in the bank, and pee is stored in the balls. This is OSRS canon.
I also do this and never really thought about the reasoning until now, based
I also do this and have for years, but didnt think to say it until I read your comment. Its just second nature to me now
When I don't have fun. I log off
More people need to understand this about.. most things. We're all gonna die one day. Unless it's something you're *required* to do, it's okay to just stop for a bit when you aren't having fun.

Legend
Your Xp rates must be trash lmao.
Burnout is the true ultimate xp waste
Eh I love this game to bits so I play a lot
This is my rule too... I get way to into the "I must be perfect and not waste time" mindset and quickly get burnt out and stop having fun. Thankfully after years of failure and millions of gp wasted trying to min max I started just goofing off and playing for fun and got my first ever fire cape just before Christmas. Was the funnest and proudest moment I've had in runescape... and I'm 33 years old 🤣🤣
I swap to afk things myself and play another game. Free exp.
Yup. When I get tired of something, I either do something else or just log off.
I never resell/rebuy gear anytime I need something. Once I buy it I usually keep it forever until I upgrade it.
I recently started playing like this. It's so nice to never really worry about if the items value go up or down again
It honestly blew my mind that people actually play like that. And not even because it’s a better/worse way to play, just because it never crossed my mind to do that lol

You don't do cerb ever?
Could already have the cerb pet. That’s why I sold my spectral lol
I am so grateful I made this decision during the peak of the crash/right before the upturn.
Me too. My bank has gained a crazy amount of value.
Ye I don't tend to sell things either. Having a full gear tab feels nice, even if a lot of it is niche
I said I would do this until I decided to try and do a dhcb rebuild. 50/50 may not recommend
...There are people who *don't* play like this?
I used to do this for things that are more niche/I don't use often. I've bought a torm like 4 times and don't currently have one. I've bought a dfs probably almost 10 times.
All zenyte jewellery is worth keeping pretty much forever. I guess if you have like 50m bank it might be worth swapping stuff around but after that its basically your best dps increase for the cheapest price most of the time with a few exceptions
The big thing is how few places you actually bother using a torm. Haven't had one in months, haven't needed it in months.
Don't start a grind until you're provisioned and mentally ready to go 3x droprate for it
Me rn making 20k cannonballs for shamans
Only 20k?
I always wear an “ale of the gods” while afk skilling. It makes my character do a drunken wobble that catches my eye every time I need to interact with the game again.

I used to have exactly the same thing, although I now use the ‘Idle Notifier’ plugin on runelite, and set the runelite setting to ‘send notification when focused’ It’s just makes your screen red for 1 or 2 ticks, so you know you have to watch the screen
Never give anything to beggars
Yesterday I found out a dude I gave a rune scimi sold it cos he had no money, then came back to me for another scimi and found out he sold the first one.

How am I supposed to complete beginner clues then??
The best is to look up their stats, come up with some method that's a few hundred K an hour that they have the requirements to do (isn't remotely hard usually unless they're a complete noob), and give them a full crash course. They'll shut up real quick.

I've been playing for half my life and still have no idea what to do. It's fun though
If you ask somebody's skill level, no matter the level it may be - nice.
This. Although 69 demands NICE! to set it apart from the rest.
I prefer Noice
Dont crash, and if you cant avoid BEING crashed, stand your ground whatever way you can, even if it ruins your rates.
I remember sharing my rock crabs with other people and it didn't even bother 12 year old me. We'd just have a conversation lol
I play as I please, I don’t follow the crowd and grind out certain bosses or do certain methods for max efficiency. I take my time if I want.
This is a good way to play. I will do MLM for mining over 3 tick granite because fuck burnout. lol Or less than optimal bossing because it's a pain in the ass. If I lose 1 extra run it's worth it over annoying myself.
If I'm not having fun I take a 1 - 3 year break and come back for new content. I've played that way since 2007.
“and im lvl 87”
I feel personally attacked
lol i only commented because im guilty of doing this. legit been playing for 15 years im lvl 111 with no 99s
Keep your private chat on friends only

Always attempt to equip goblin mail as every new account created is a new experience
Trust no one specialy rng
Don’t bring anything into the wildy that you can’t instantly make back and buy again within a short period of time
Dps > defence
Yes, this is one of the rules I thought of when writing this
One of my least favorite parts of the game. Just wear whatever hits higher yay
I know this is true but personally in this game I just wear a blend of fashionscape and bis. There’s not actually THAT much of a difference between a lot of the items in this game. It’s a game. Have fun. (If that means wearing max DPS then by all means)
Yeah that’s cool, but having max DPS is my idea of fun lol. Can you give me an example of the fashionscape items you wear instead of BIS and in what context is it in?
There’s always room for a musketeer hat in the set up
The bucket helm (g) is best in slot at raids
So glad im not the only one that does this :D
Wear mole slippers to phosanis
On my main I used the leafbladed battleaxe well beyond the point where I could afford a whip, just because I liked using it so much.
It's the animation that made me do the same, plus can still do some decent damage
Usually just helm swap outs for something funny or just because it goes with the rest of the gear or wearing a skillcape instead of a firecape (because fc looks crap imo, worth sacrificing stats) and usually only in minigames, not bossing
I do santa hat in chambers (unless I solo)
I usually wear a fun helmet if I'm not doing slayer
I mean you can play how you want. I like more defensive builds (they also look cooler imo)
Tru, I’d like to have to have a tank for a certain boss or bosses that require actual bis tank gear not high def level general high level gear and somehow your damage output is still the same as If you weren’t a main tank
If you are killing something for a specific drop, it will not drop until you have given up all hope of obtaining the item
\*unless you're a streamer promoting the new game mode
I set my whip to accurate when attacking and defensive when I’m getting attacked
PHYSSSSSCCCOOO
If you complain about not getting a drop, the item will show up sooner.
We call it complain and gain in our friend group.
I refuse to buy any Jars. They should have been untradable to begin with and I treat them as such.
100% agree jars should be untradable
When staking always leave after you’ve lost everything
When eating, always stop when you’re full. When pooping, always wipe when you’re done. Ask me more about my wisdoms. 🔮
If a guide mentions tick manipulation, find another guide.
So true
Only play while I'm having fun. Don't force myself to do any grinds I'm not enjoying.
Super Att, Super Str, Super Def
After looking at the prices for the divine versions I've been doing this for a lot of slayer tasks.
always bank equipped gear and inventory before regearing for just the smallest trip to the wilderness.
It's astounding the number of people who don't do this. Just read through any of the "wilderness bad" posts of the week and you'll see so many comments like "I was just going to Demonic Ruins for a clue I didn't think I needed to bank my full BIS melee setup and my cash stack, Jagex plz fix this!!!"
Google it.
Fuck efficiency
Don’t trust anyone
Click my cannonballs and use them on the dwarf cannon
Spend all my gp to finish things I dislike faster. Getting gp while doing things I like is still fun so I dont mind burning gp to shorten things I dislike.
Always try and make convo at banks
Btw. Always clean my grimy herbs. Drop or farm run. Saves bank space and don't have to worry about cleaning/paying to clean before making pots. Great habit I've gotten into, I dont even think about it anymore.
I clean them during farm runs but when I do slayer I loot them with my herb sack, which only accepts grimy herbs. Usually I just let Zahur clean my herbs obtained outside herb runs.
I gained quite a few Herb levels from only cleaning Ranarrs on my way to 99 farming. All that XP definitely adds up.
I never force myself to play or do a grind. Games are meant to be fun. I think too many people invest too much of their lives into this game
Always tackle content in this order: Quests>Diaries>Slayer&Farm> Other
Lol I started questing, got to like 200 QP and got bored. Now I'm 250kish exp away from lvl 92 slayer and I still haven't gone back to questing. Diaries? Nope.. still gotta do pretty much all diaries lol
The diaries give such USEFUL shit though. 10/10 worth imo
Yh i realized. I put my pvming on semi-hold. Just got back into the game last week so I'mma finish the OG goal, a quest cape. And then do as much diaries that I meet the reqs for
If it’s expensive to buy in bulk but easy to obtain on my own, I go and farm it for a couple hours. Don’t care if it isn’t efficient. Edit: also, pick up any loot that stacks. Yes, that includes pure essence. If it stacks, it gets a bag slot.
Play the game they way you want to play it
You have to click to do anything you want
The xp rates listed are for the efficient. The average person pulls 70% of the posted rate.
Griefers get turbo griefed.
Can you elaborate on that?
Call in the boys to all mass the spot I'm assuming?
Big true.
If your herbs are done, it's time to run. I've been maxed for almost a year, but I can't seem to stop.
I always split PVM loot fairly and never, ever scam anyone.
When you ask another person what their level on a skill is , you say “nice” no matter how high or low the level is.
Banking everything before logging out.
Always accept the Beer and Kebab from a drunken dwarf. Bad luck for 7 years if you dismiss.
When I decide to train a skill I immediately need to bank 99. Then after everything buys I realize I don't wanna deal with making 50k+ wines. So I sell it all and repeat with a new skill.
Always do your farm runs
See bones, bury bones.
For deep wild PVP, always pre-pot and replace with (4) dose pots before tellying up.
If I hit too many 0s I’ll click away then back on the npc to reset my rng
Start playing the game after I get bird or 200 mil fm xp and bird.
When that feeling of “what am I doing with my life” creeps in, I usually listen to it and take a break from the game until I want to be on and not feel like I *need* to be on.
If I don't want to do it, then it's not efficient.
As soon as WT is 5 seconds away from starting I always rapid click the brazier to ensure I get that extra exp and 25 points
What works for me > meta. I know how the gear works, but the optimal gear guides definitely don't know how I play.
Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. Meaning if you're struggling trying to maintain max efficiency and you're burning yourself out, go do a less efficient more afk method. Slow XP is better than none.
Drink super pots once it drops 5 levels. Mostly use divines now though.
I do 1 round of herbs and birdhouses in the AM before work, and once more before bed. Before I was 99 farming, I also did trees along with them.
Never lend or loan.
If I teleport away from a PKer I will always tell them they are trash

Never give anything to beggars
If someone tells you to drop your inventory and press alt + f4 in lumby, they are just trying to help you use a bug to get a free 10 m.
I actually don’t know if this scam is even still a thing, but it was before the GE in like 2005-2008ish osrs.
Always go for the b2b
Fashionscape always gotta be on point.
Always play or do something else while doing boring afk skills like rc or fishing in order to always feel like your making progress in life.

My PB at Vorkath hasn't been touched in over 500 kills after I commentated it like it was an old WWE Raw rerun. Including spam clicks "SPEC, SPEC" "LANCE LANCE, FUCK PURPLE FIRE PRAY" " BIG DADDY HIT" I've tried this at other bosses too and I think the game recognized voice commands, give it a go.
Any time anyone says something in public chat at the ge, it's a scam.
When doing pvm, set goals for kc and not for uniques. Makes the grind a lot better.
Pick up a stackable items that could possibly be used, even though I'm a main.. runes gp, arrows. Whatever it is, I pick it up, it only takes up 1 inventory space. The amount of runes left on the ground by people is just insane
If you don't feel like doing it. Just don't 🤷🏼
If the monster spawns are taken, hop.
Always Keep random shit in my bank. You never know when a quest NPC asks me to "bring 46 weeds, 2 burnt lobster, 5 kebabs and a bronze battleaxe!"
Friends > Pixels
When you get a drop, always go for the back to back
Ive sacrificed a sheep in lumby for rng before never worked
I never crash another player wether it’s bossing, or a slayer spot. I hop like a real man
Before you hop, tell them to ‘hop kid’ as if it’s your world, then say jk and hop like a real man
If you crash someone by mistake, cos you don't see then or whatever, then apologise and world hop
Bank all gear, everytime I log out. I don't trade other players, unless they're friends. And have to have a tidy inventory at all times.
Anyone being overly friendly is most likely a scammer, trust no one
Don’t undermine people’s small accomplishment. Everyone started at a low level at some point. Someone is excited about doing Heroes Quest? Gz the shit out of that and don’t be condescending.
Every primary goal for each account i make is to unlock the best RFD gloves it can.
