Old School Runescape

there are some easy to knock out quests you can rush at level 3 for easy level gains. Off the top of my head Waterfall Quest is one that puts you at like 30 strength from level 1.

Don't play it

>>379872848
well shit i dont remember that quest being that broke although i did do it at a much higher level

>>379872896
why not?

some grinding skills have been made more bearable like firemaking with the introduction of the wintertodt. More interesting things like it are to come for other skills like mining in the future.

for now just AFK boring skills while you watch videos or something. There's really no other way unless you want to give yourself arthritis and tick manipulate for fastest XP rates or bot.

coming back to this game, it's really less fun than I rememeber, probably because i'm playing alone.

Restarted like OP is on OSRS and holy shit, is it just the same shit. Literally just grinding your stats, and your given no gold and leveling doens't get you shit so you're basically stuck with a bronze sword and shield unless you want to waste time leveling up that other useless shit.

I plan on buying gold now that I have a good job and shit.

>>379872598
Anyone still play RS3? I got a little bit addicted again recently and need some cool niggas to chat shit with while I grind

Just bot. Who the hell plays legit anyway?

seriously, bot. I came back the middle of may with a fresh account and already botted my way up to 1,000 skill total. its still fun, just without all the autistic work. powerbot and freescripts are fine if you dont overdo it

>>379873832
I'd rather not get caught and lose everything

>>379872598
Play iron man. Iron man means you can't trade with other players or use the grand exchange. It makes it so everything you do is actually an accomplishment.

do the stronghold of security for free 10k and then do the waterfall quest (if you're member).

>>379874401
well this weekend has members content available for everyone so i better hurry and do it

>>379873832
Why bot?
There's no sense of accomplishment

try /v/scape if by long while you mean since it started going downhill, grind is shortened and plenty of people are willing to help out

>>379872848
This.

You can get some easy attack levels hitting the dummies in varrock. The museum quiz nearby can jump start slayer and hunter.

I came back to this last year and I enjoyed it a bunch, I bought gold because honestly I can afford the cost of a sandwich to save hours and sperg autisticaly on the house nobody will ever see. the VG clan chat is usualy an alright friendship simulator while you grind. I just enjoyed visiting the world again and you can level skills pretty quickly if you put any thought into it

>>379874935
don't let the low playerbase get you down, we have a constant chat going so you can always talk to fellow /v/irgins or turn it off if you just want to put some tunes on and grind
>>379874851
just a private server, not gonna get banned, plenty of people play both.

No, they are separate servers

also any good music recommendations for while i play

I haven't played since 2013, how did they improve Construction

>>379877249
the osrs soundtrack

>>379872598
don't play oldschool

>>379877534
why not

Is it true you're not halfway to max until lv 96 in a skill?

>>379873832
what bot do you use?

>>379872598
Just don't wear all white at any point in the game, you will get permad

>>379878981
max is 200m xp and 99 is only 13m but your total xp in skill only reaches 6.5m at 92, not 96

>>379873832
are you retarded?

>>379878981
Half exp is 92. However since you gain exp at an increased rate the higher your level is half the time of a 99 is usually less than 92.

I came back to it for a while last year. Eventually needed to bot to level up properly, as I have an actual life to live.

Even botting + playing the game sporadically wasn't enough to get anywhere or fully be immersed in the game. Had to give up eventually and go back to less time consuming vidya. Damn I miss MMOs...

This is called playing the game. No fucking shit you have to level your skills to get money.

>>379880065
go play RSC hipster

For those that said do waterfall how should i be able to handle 84 moss giants at low level

pest control improved, so thats fun
>>379881483
just run past them, also food.

>>379872598
In all honesty, if you know what and how to grind your skills already then you'll level up much faster than your first time. Just pop some music or a DVD and get cracking

>>379881756
I kinda have forgotten most everything cause I haven't played in years

Fuck you King Muumuu

>>379882498
In that case just go to osrs wiki page for tips on grinding and quests, it'll go by much faster

Grind out thieving and get 50 firemaking and then do Wintertodt until 99. Only takes like 30-40 hours and you make profit doing it.

>>379883178
Forgot to mention you'll get woodcutting and construction experience doing Wintertodt as well. From 50-99 you get like 700k wc xp and around level 40 construction for free.

I just got approached by a game show host and answered four questions correctly and got 1000 coins. sweet

>>379883670
Random events are still in osrs. They are long gone in New runescape

>>379883895
What happened to them? Is Nu-Scape really that fucked? I heard they took out the wilderness too

>>379883895
I know lmao i had forgotten all about them. they were the best. im now the proud owner of 1025 gp

>>379884121
Random events were originally for bots, but when new runescape hit , devs took it out. In my rs3 account I still got some of the original random event clothes like the frog suit, and the camo pants and shirt

>>379879892
The quests and world are top tier.
Probably the only reasons to get back to the game, especially with these membership bonds.

>>379884121

they brought wildy back

>you will never be able to go back to middle school
>Get home from school, fuck homework
>Play RuneScape for eight hours straight

>>379884121
Also wilderness was taken out, and replaced with revenants. Peoole complained and then rs3 got it back, however bounty hunter was removed and clan wars moves to a new location.

Alright so i feel retarded and i probs am rn but im straight out of tut island and am in lumbridge. what now? i think maybe try to figure out how to get iron armor probs and then figure out when i should start waterfall

I thought i smelled something fishy when i talked to gilbert in lumbridge. is even osrs no longer safe?

>>379884561
I used to get home and play Castle Wars for hours with both of my friends

>>379884778
Start thieving for some easy levels and quick cash. Then Start woodcutting with an axe and then use that wood to start firemaking. Ideally do this until level 50 and then do >>379883178.

Or of course literally just do whatever you want. Also stop by the grand exchange in varrock and learn how to use it.

>>379882978
You mean this one to Vannaka?

>>379885839
Wintertodt should honestly be the immediate goal for any new account. Very easy to do, get like 300kxp/hr, and you will make money doing it. ~10m by the time you hit 99.

Man it really sucks starting over, I had nearly level 70 in all stats had like 30 quests left before I got my Questcape. I've just been fishing all day, it's really comfy.

When you're starting out/restarting from scratch, don't give a shit about efficiency just do whatever you please. Your only long term goal should be getting dragon slayer done, other than that just train skills you feel like training or do quests you have the requirements for.

>>379886008
Train agility for faster regen or buy energy potions (if you're only on a trial though buying energy pots is a better idea). And don't carry heavy equiipment unless you need to.

Also Zeah is probably the biggest, emptiest area in the game because the OSRS dev team has no idea what they're doing. Spending all your run energy and not even getting halfway to the next point of interest is pretty much a zeah-exclusive problem.

>>379886380
Please do not tell me you are fishing for money.

>>379884635
Revenants was claustrophoby inducing

>>379886510
whats wrong with that?

>>379886510
No I'm fishing to get my levels back up so I can do the one thing I actually love doing in RS, Quests.

>>379886380
Thats the hardest part of playing osrs. But trust me you'll get it all back and it'll be great

>>379886748
Nearly every single other skill is better for money now. Even fucking firemaking.

>>379886748

it's super slow cash

might as well collect feathers and sell them or spin flax like a peasant slave

>>379884121
Nobody liked them so they removed random events in RS3. I think you can still obtain the rewards in other ways and they sprinkled the random event NPCs around the world as flavour NPCs.

In OSRS they kept them for the spirit of the game but eventually made them 100% optional and made the combat randoms NPCs you can fight in certain areas.

>>379886748
Fishing is shit money these days

>>379885194

I was an alternative pleb, I had fun doing games like the pirate one and leveling unpopular skills like farming and had a questcape. Had so many different ways around through all the fast travel systems.

Anyway, it sucks if true.

>>379886237
>>379886417
I am level 56 agility and don't carry any stuff, it still takes forever to recharge and drains too fast, that's why everybody wears graceful everywhere.

>>379887669
Fishing is nice because you can catch your own food at least. Eating sharks whole mid-combat that you fished out of the ocean with your bear fucking hands is manly af.

Do a lot of people still play?

>>379886510
I used to fish for gold back in 09 or so. I think I had around 80 fishing. I thought it was decent for money making.

>>379888408
17 RS =/= 09 RS

Literally even at 99 fishing you aren't going to be making all that much money.

The dungeon to the left of falador is much better for blue drag money. Grind out that 70 agility, I promise it's worth it.

I would try but it usually had someone doing that already

>>379889492
Gathering skills were always shit. Most of the players were just either too young or too stupid to realize.

Spending 50 hours grinding out medium clues to get that one ranger boots drop for 20m+ > basically every gathering skill.

No. Buy you can buy membership with in-game currency.

Scim is fastest attacking sword weapon, use that. Use shield until you can get a defender in the warriors guild later on.
