I think we can all confidently say that once you've finally completed sheep sheerer you're in the end game really. There's not much after that content wise that's worth mentioning
True
I did this yesterday and it was a nightmare LMAO
Once I discovered the essence mines, I knew I had flown too close to the sun. There's basically nothing left for me now
I like this. The reason "mid game" feels so massive is because... it is. If you combine all of these other tiers together into one of course it's huge. Breaking it down like this seems very sensible. The "Adventurer" tier alone is pretty significant - barrows and fc can take a while.
You're 100% right
Meanwhile is RS3 you get to the endgame in less than a month with all the XP boosts, lamps stars, events. Etc.
Here I am thinking I'm close to end game because I have a fighter torso, barrow gloves and d defender. Lmao
a month? all I did was login with twitch prime lel@@Etsa
@@Etsayeah, that's the difference between rs3 and osrs. You cracked the code. They're different games for different people wow
even these tiers are huge
I'm toward the end of tier 2 as an iron, but the most significant milestone was only a few dozen hours into tier 1.
specifically: The biggest leap for me was fairy rings, 50 magic, a source of law runes (GoTR), and an Ardougne Cloak 1.
simply being able to get around quickly makes a _huge_ difference to the overall feel of the game, even more so than something like barrows gloves or a fire cape.
I just finished my medium lumbridge diary, and im working on ardy tier 2 (Got a few quests to finish). GOTR has been huge. It greatly increased my cash stack (farming toadflax and doing birdhouses as well). Not to mention the massive amount of runes ive got from it.
Pretty shocked at the first two tiers.
They seem like they are designed for sweat lords.
When I create a new runescape account, I'm not thinking about immediately buying bonds and speed running base 75s with a 100m bank.
There's a huge jump from finally earning 100k, to finally having a some of the members-quests done with a cool piece of gear or two.
Then I start considering even attempting things like barrows or getting a stat up to 75, and this probably takes months of gameplay for someone who's not a try hard.
I know it's tough to make tiers that work for both casual players that take months to progress and dedicated players that can do the same in less than a week.
But it still feels strange to know that it takes like a year of casual gameplay to finish only tier 2 ):
Yeah this video is trash.
The correct way is to run to stronghold of security for 10k gp, buy fire staff from Zaff, 300 mind runes, 600 air runes from Aubury, and keep them for fire strikes, then follow efficient ironman quest guide, it leads you through quests like witches potion and imp catcher that gets you close to lv13 magic, you should spend leftover money to get to 13 magic, then continue following the guide and fire strike any bosses that aren't immune to magic.
You will need to train magic eventually, and earth striking cows is boring as shit, what excuse do you have not using your time on fire striking khazard warlord instead? It's actually ridiculous that you can just use lv13 magic spell to btfo a guy who has like 100 combat levels more than you do, and that's what runescape is all about.
You will actually have fun and learn that this game doesn't require you to be rich to have fun and progress steadily, every small unlock will be meaningful and every 2k gold you get from a quest will feel rewarding, eventually you will be back to 10k+ gold except now you've done a bunch of quests and your stats are higher and you can do things you couldn't before, this includes things that make money, such as farming, hops farming, birdhouses...
Your goal should be highest amount of progress in shortest amount of time, for least amount of gp. The less gp you need spent, the less gp you need to earn in the first place, and early game you can't earn a lot quickly. This means early game should be spent doing quests and grinding things you truly want to grind. You want that graceful set? Go for it anytime. You don't have that much time for questing so you will afk MLM as one quest will eventually need 72 mining? Sure, go at it... You don't want to do quests and want to kill things instead? Yeah sure, 99 slayer is waiting for you either way, you will eventually get annoyed that slayer could be faster if you did more quests, and go back to doing more quests... Things like that are way more important than having X amount of gold, lmfao.
And most importantly, remember, all unspent gold is being wasted because of constant inflation, spend your cash stack for gear you want or levels you need today, so you don't regret it tomorrow, there's quite literally 0 excuses for having 10m raw gold as a new player unless you just sold a bond and will spend it in the next tick.
I agree, this dude saying it like it's so easy 😂
Started this video thinking my 19 year old account was probably classed as mid game, only to learn I’m still classed as a tier 1 😂
Maybe in another 20 years
It's a macro look at account progression noting the various major breakpoints. There's still room between each tier to gain meaningful upgrades. If you aren't a "try hard" focused on progression you don't need a video breaking down account progression to validate you because it's not aimed at you. Play the game how you want.
My OSRS account is 96 days old (a chunk of it was afking) and granted, I did get hacked..twice (in the same week) so I probably lost 10mil at least, but according to this guy, I'm still Tier 1.5 since I don't even have 100m worth of bank value...but I do have pipe, barrows gear, fang even, quest cape, Fire Cape, and a lot of my gear is within the 1st (usually 2nd)-4th BiS range (depends on the activity).
I think he needed to think about this video more cause these tiers seem ludicrous. I stopped watching after he said T2 was 100mil of bank value. I watched some of his other vids (probably about bossing), so it's not the creator I dislike.
And absolutely no one is gonna buy a bond instantly as a new player and sell it (they may not even know it's sellable?) unless they really want to invest themselves in the game. Even then, 10mil might help get your stats up but you're still going to be SOL about realistically progressing your quests, achievements, etc because all you'll know how to do is run through quests using a guide and whacking random mobs to level up. This advice is only good if you wanna make an alt as fast as possible. I have never considered p2w with my 15 year+ old account (I played since RSC on OG RS), only pay to...access content (IE members).
Its not about the destination, its about the journey. Making memories, having a laugh and the friends you meet along the way 👍
100% this, i met one of my closest online friends in osrs about 2-3 years ago, we were both around mid 60s in lvls etc, we both have max combat now with a few 99s and are about to start raiidng together! Havin a blast
yup! built a fresh account after mobile came out because my irl friend was playing, and he walked me thru all the necessary quests, getting my graceful, eventually beating jad for the first time together, we don't talk anymore but now I share my experiences with my clan mates and whoever I stumble upon in game that's willing to strike up a convo, i love runescape but it's just not as fun when you don't have people to send screenshots of your achievements to that will get just as excited for you as you are yourself :)
@@TchSktch Runescape feels a lot like real life if you really think about it, in a lot of aspects
Its not like that anymore that was 15 years ago...
Nah you just can't get past nostalgia
Loved the guide mate. Very intuitive, never knew that runescape can be brought down to small bits. But now it actually makes sense. Setting goals this way can make it much simpler than it looks and less feeling of burnout. Keep up the good work !
Thank you so much for your support! I hope I can bring you more videos you like in the future :)
Well said.
I would say that quests should be done before tier 4 or even tier 3 to not be hold back in the coming tiers
Yep quest cape is the first thing i hot after barrows gloves and fire cape
I hate quests so I've still not got my quest cape lol. I've thought about knocking it out since I'm close though. I also don't enjoy skilling. I enjoy PVP, raids and some PVM bosses. So I'm like 1800 total with no quest cape and a 2.4b bank lol
Agreed. Definitely wanna get that quest cape asap.
@@verteuphalf the quests in the game do nothing for you, you’ll be set exclusively just doing quests that benefit you
@@Axoe you're a clown and every time I see your clown lookin ass walking with dramen/lunar staff in his hand I will point at you and laugh, that alone makes all quests worth doing and what you wrote couldn't be less true.
If you do quests properly before you do any big grinds, that "small" amount of xp you get from each quest adds up, not to mention the lore of the world is the only thing you need to "benefit" from doing a quest.
Also quest requirements are goals by itselves and this game is just annoying boring cookie clicker if you have no goals.
This was a really well made video! You just earned a sub! :D Really enjoyed your take on breaking the game up in much more than just "early, mid, end" game. Thank you for a breath of fresh air.
Thanks so much for subscribing, comments like this really motivate me to push on and make more videos for you guys!
This was a really well put together and comprehensive video, good job!
Thanks so much, I appreciate that :) should see a new video coming next week
I’m at like uber late game and I still feel like I’ve got a lot of stuff to do my banks 12.7b atm but I’ve got master not grandmaster still gotta get blood torva and I want all pets. The thing about this game is no matter how far you go you feel like there’s always something more to get. It’s what keeps you playing.
Yea 100% OSRS is one of the few games that can truly hold your attention for thousands of hours on a single playthrough
1b sounds like a dream and I'm almost of of the midgame
After you get gm and blorva just send speedrun inferno 😄 is basically the pinnacle skill of the game
@@rfafoerfoierjoayou’re wrong, had a girl in my clan like 2 years ago, yeah I said a girl, and she had over 3k kc in every single boss that aren’t restricted(obor,hesporie,ect) as long as over 6k clue completed and over 1200 collection log. If she didn’t finish the game by now she’s most likely at a few hour to💀
@@tristanpomerleau-vm1xzyet she still has content incomplete haha. it’s basically impossible to COMPLETELY finish this game in a lifetime
Really good video! Currently in tier 2/3, slowly making progress on skills, doing some slayer here and there, and maxing my combat. I honestly love, just how much freedom you have and how much there's to do in this game (even if it's all rather grindy). This video's a great help on figuring out what to aim for next in terms of upgrades and PVM!
You're 100% right, there is so much freedom at every tier!
Thank you for painting a more realistic picture of what account progression looks like. Top tier content.
Glad you like it! New video coming in a few days!
150k gear to 70m gear is a 46566% increase. 70m gear to 1.5b gear is a 2042% increase. I personally think it makes some sense to categorize the entire 150k to 1.5b range as the mid game. It encompasses the entire journey and really separates the beginning from the end. Just like with most things in life, it starts off really slow and tedious and starts to snowball later on down the road. Interesting video :)
This feels like a really good video! As someone that has only experienced OSRS as an iron I'm not quite sure where to go sometimes, but then I realize that the trade restriction I've thrown onto myself probably means that pushing levels is probably a higher prio than gear, as that will allow getting the gear to be a lot smoother as well. Just feels a little bad creeping towards Base 90s with a Dscim, Ibans & RCB sometimes
Everyone journey is their own, and as an iron you've obviously got a longer and more difficult road than a main account. You can do it!
If you're creeping toward 90 combats you should go for a bowfa and crystal armor asap. A bowfa is so useful as well as blowpipe. And you want to complete the quest cape.
You have an rcb?? Lucky, I'm stuck on bone cb as an iron
First time iron here. Now that I’m close to the whip, I realize it was more fun to obtain different styles of melee weapons for different situations on my way to this whip than it would be to have a boring, linear progression to the next best melee weapon for everything.
I don’t have a bp but rcb to bp seems fine to me because tipped bolts up to runite are plenty strong.
I’m not cool with Iban’s to trident. That’s insane… but they just added the warped sceptre.
I see now, the gear progression is fine.
@@saraandbrendonchamprup8697you can get rune xbow from crazy arch or unstrung rune xbow from deranged arch.. 69 fletching to make.
This is actually a fantastic progression video - thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Mid-Game is the point where you’ve played the game long enough to understand the mechanics and what is possible but you don’t have the resources. For me, exiting the mid-game was about getting all the POH teleports, having upper-level gear in each combat style and having enough to also have extra gear Im willing to lose in the Wildy. At that point the game really opens up.
my best tip is get an osmumtens fang over a bandos chestplate it makes everything so much easier
Dawg i just found your channel as new player, and I have to say, you are my favorite, most helpful osrs youtuber. You're putting out content that others are not, and its so concise and well thought out. Even if you never posted another video (please keep posting btw) your channel is an absolute success in my eyes. Props man.
nice to see authentic original content thanks man
This video is definitely a breath of fresh air from all the other content creators making me feel like I'm stagnating. I thought for sure I was in "mid game" but realistically I'm only tier 2 moving towards 3. Looking forward to next week's video!
The mid game is super personal, I would consider anything past tier 1 the mid game but I think there are some big tiers for upgrades. I'm really glad you enjoyed it, your positive support keeps me motivated to upload in the future excited to see you in next weeks video !
tbh to me all that makes your account low, mid, and top tier is total lvl and quest completion, also diaries and stuff like that.
just because you got 1b doesint mean much in the grand scheme of things, i mean the difference that most gear gives is negligable and the only things that make a huge difference is the weapons really.
for example, going from fighter torso to bandos chest piece isint that much of a difference so technically doesint change much. it just feels like its more of a status thing then anything, lol, i mean i seen people pull off high end content in the pseudo mid tier gear (torso, d legs, neitz, whip, etc).
@@AbionxI started raids with basically budget gear d boots, god d hide, blood bark, no melee weapon just the keris and rune crossbow. So raids is more just how good you are...up until the end where it's a literal dps check
@@dickvandraevan1675 exactly.
i did TOB with just void for example which is easy for anyone to get, just needs to be patient and grind for it is all, and thats most the gear you will need besides d defender (also patients to grind it up also), and i believe even a glory.
watched a duo do it in black d hides on GIM group and with mid gear even.
I think something important to note in regards to what leads people to this mindset is also the way other mmos work, especially wow, where maxing is the most important thing you can do and is where the game *starts*
This is great! Love the detailed progression breakdowns!
Thanks so much!
wow, never seen it broken down into these 7 tiers before. very cool video
Thanks so much for your support! I really appreciate it
I personally use 4 stages. They're still kinda long, but I find it still a good guage. Early, mid, late, and endgame. Early is the rune set, mid is your fighter torso set (predominantly free to earn items), late would be the Bandos set, and endgame is Torva. The main thing is that early is learning, mid is progression galore, late is hard content, and endgame is raiding, Inferno, maxxing, etc. And most players stop at mid-late game.
It feels great to see the in-depth about the journey in runescape. I am currently in the "Hero" phase. People have vast "mid-game" ideas that i sometimes felt like i was going nowhere, seeing people with better gear than me while saying they are midgame.
the only thing i feel like you should have added was the time investment between the stats you suggest. including the fact that most new players arent going to do end game pvm and will avg 200-500k gp/hr though slayer so saying to go from 10m-100m is the same of saying go from 150k rune to 70m bandos. i understand some might disagree and thats ok. all around breaking this up makes it seem more obtainable but definitely explaining the commitment time necessary wouldve been a huge bonus for new players. thanks for the video. keep it up.
This video helped change my motivations in OSRS and I have been having a much more enjoyable time!
Thank you
Love the video! Looking at it like this will change my view on runescape forever. Ive always been bad for getting to the "mid-game" and getting frustrated and making a new account so i could feel like i was making progress again (numbers go up= dopamine go up). Maybe now i will finally reach some of those goals that just seemed way too far out of reach and getting demotivated. I look forward to seeing new content from you! If its anything like this ill be back for every upload! ❤
Legend! Will be a new video coming soon. Enjoy your journey your way no need to rush :)
I’ve shared this with every friend I have that plays osrs. Such a good break down of progression thank you
Glad you enjoy it!
I just came back to os after taking a break since 2016 and having to start a new account and this is super helpful. the changes added to the game are overwhelming
getting QP cape unlocks so much more content than people think.
dude this strucktured my game soooo much your srsly one of the best osrs yt on earth. love your videos
Great video, subbed, I just came over from RS3 to OSRS and I'm hitting base 60s starting to wonder what to do, this helped a lot
Thanks so much for your support my RS3 Brother!
Making incredible videos, keep up the great work
Thank you so much your words mean a lot helps give me motivation to keep going
Great content! You segmented the tiers pretty well and fits nicely with my own personal progression.
Im currently in tier 6, just need a shadow and ive basically got max gear in all styles, but currently severely burnt.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed!
I personally have 4 tiers, thats early game (under 1500 total) mid game (1500-1800 with like 100m) late game (1800-2100 with like 500m-1b) and end game (2100-2277 with 2b+) then if you really want the collection loggers or pet hunters guys with 1k log or 25 pets slots
But I have been in tier 6 and was like yea lets start over but ironman this time. Maxed inferno 3b bank 15 pets, but now I have been grinding the ironman and just got to tier 5 with somethings to catch up on. Also forgot to add the best gear for mage on here but the Occult should be bought asap if you are planning on doing mage for any pvm content.
Yea occult is 100% a good call entirely agree
Just wanted to say thank you for this video. Just stumbled on it and it makes a lot more sense. Ive seen so many videos calling certain quests "mid game" and felt like I should already be there and done with that by now but im just not and its so far away. This video sets a much better perspective of leveling and progression.
Thank you!
Thanks men, started playing OSRS as a completly new player latly and this vid helped me create goals for my journey!
Glad I could help!
Keep it up, you are killing it man! You have my subscription!
Thanks so much, I really appreciate your support!
As a maxed end game player with max gear and a bunch of pets this is finally a realistic video! I am currently at stage 8, bored of pet hunting and made an ironman lol
Ironman adds a whole new dimension to every grind, best of luck on your iron-man adventures!
this is me but already an ironman. what do i do now?
@@dylanmicky8483 make a uim
@@dylanmicky8483 you play ultimate ironman of course....
This is a really well thought out video that breaks down the many sections of someone’s RuneScape career. Really great video!
Thank you so much for watching
Been playing this game for 20ish years, great video I completely agree 💯% sir, gotcha a sub my g keep it up
I have been playing RuneScape for years and years, since 2005. As soon as Old School came out, I was in.
I just, for the first time, completed underground pass and saw the elves. For nearly 20 years I looked at that area of the map in awe, and finally I can say i have been there. Runescape is one of, if not the greatest game of all time. So excited for Sailing and Valamore! Gonna be like a kid again!
Remember, we all go at our own pace. You're all still the Heroes of Gielinor!
sailing is gonna be so wack they’ve been contemplating it since 2010 and i can’t say it will be an exciting skill lol
@@Eugenia_Farmstrust the process
The biggest difference for me is i would put all quests done in t2 and elite achievement diary in T4.
But yeah T4 is where i had considered "Endgame" All content is open, it's just chasing 99s and small upgrades via BiS item's and items like T Bow, Tumekens etc.
Definitely one of the best osrs content creators. Thank you for making this. Subbed earned hope you make it big buddy.
That's a very kind compliment not sure I'm living up to that just yet but hopefully I keep improving to reach that standard
Honestly homie that was a really well executed video. Great job and thank you
I appreciate that!
I think one of the primary issues about osrs is that to become a end game player you have to essentially commit your life to the game, which many people can’t afford to do
Idk.. I feel like that's a misconception. There's a lot you can do to speed up grinds. If you do 2-3 herb runs a day you can make an extra 500k+ daily with very little effort. You can do nmz to practically afk combat stats to higher levels to take on better pvm.. the most important thing is to do what you want. Set one goal at a time and enjoy the process.
@@EricCLefebvre this is true, you could also get spooned a tbow on 40kc like my friend
I don't think that's an issue, it just highlights the fact that unlike other MMOs in RuneScape you can actually have fun before the end game.
Why would anyone want to become an endgame player?
OSRS endgame is just pointless grinds for no reason at all because you're already maxed and already have all relevant big unlocks.
What I mean by that is prayers like rigour, this is actually huge for any account and feels good once you unlock it. Same with elite void. Even lumbridge elite diary is more relevant than any endgame "unlocks" that aren't useful for anything.
Unless you get lucky in Cox and get Tbow 1st KC, Tbow is literally an irrelevant unlock.
Oh cool wow you can kill shit faster, who cares you already practically beat the game and have 0 reason to continue grinding at that point. It's quite literally everything before then that makes this game fun and if you think otherwise you're a biggest clown on the universe because if you need tbow to have fun you can work at mcdonalds for a few months and buy gold then go into ge and cash in your tbow, fun game bro.
I'm not sure what content even requires a Tbow, maybe if you want to do inferno then it's gonna help a lot, but what then, once you beat inferno, you beat the game, there's no more fun to be had, it's not like +4 str bonus will make you able to do relevant content that you couldn't before because hardest content in the game is how you get the cape in the first place.
People who make runescape videos keep making new accounts, whether it's HCIM series where they keep dying randomly or PvP builds even though noone does PvP in 2023... Because the only fun to be had is while the number in your stats screen can still go up without a need to hover over any icons to notice a difference.
The fact that majority of skills in this game are completely worthless the moment you get QPC level requirements doesn't do the game any favors.
Sure, herblore makes gp later on and is useful in raids... But the only reason to do raids is to hope for big drops because once you're able to do raids the only fun you have is that 1 tick where purple colored text shows up in your textbox.
People do crafting to 99 literally for no other reason than crafting cape for fast banking, so on and so forth...
This game is so boring once you actually achieve your goals it's almost cringe to think about.
@@shinobuoshino5066 That make sense I feel like mid game is super fun I've been in tier 2 for years... alot of on and off playing but still tons to do w hen I return maybe I just don't want it to end so fast . most mmos I played once I make it to end game I stop playing it just get so boring once u can do everything.
A mid level account is mostly base 70+ (combat 100+), has a quest cape, all hard diary and combat. Everything beyond that is a slow grind towards the "end game"
Also I see alot of focus on doing PVM with BIS. You can learn PVM content with scruff gear. You can enjoy PVM with scruff gear too. You don't need a Shadow or a Twisted Bow to enjoy Zulrah for example.
I watched this video so many times, it has made me enjoy the game so much more, thank you for that!!
Glad you enjoy it! Thank so you so much
Amazing content glad I went back and watched this one
Thanks so much I am so glad you enjoyed
This was really helpful & made my goal clearer. ⚔Happy Scaping⚔
Glad it helped!
My take as 2:00 minutes in of game tiers' Intrigued
End game: I feel like torva is more "end" game than late. You would class Tbow and Tumukens staff as end game, Torva being in the 1b+ range justifies that imo.
Late game: Bandos being late (including Prims, fang, Fero, Tort etc.)
Mid game: Barrows w/ whip, fury. (possible with a few miss match late game items)
early game: would be the anywhere from rune items to miss-matched mid game items
Great video thank you ! Nice breakdown
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your support!
Biggest tip is get void. You can use it for most content and just focus on jewelry and weapons.
I'd say I'm somewhere about Tier 3.5
I've got 85s in combat stats, 99 attack excluded. I haven't really bossed because they're intimidating besides KBD or something goofy like Scurrius, and I've done maybe 2/3 of the quests with 250m bank. But I like how you named the tiers, none of them make you feel like a failure.
I finally don't feel so lost on my first playthrough! Thanks a bunch the game has been a blast even in the beginner stage
Glad to hear it!
Dude you got a like, comment and subscribe for this video.... Exactly what i was looking for thank you so much!
I was adventurer without the 100mil stack... i got super lucky and got enhanced crystal seed on 2 kc while learning standard Gauntlet... had that money in my account for a whole week having no idea what to spend it on... finding this video has refocused me and helped me upgrade my account so again thank you! keep up the great work :D
You're a legend thank you!
Mid game is just the modern way of distinguishing who is a noob or not tbh. A sweaty veteran player would never feel like he was in some sort of mid game on a fresh account with 0 gp as he would progress his account in an efficient manner which would make him never actually struggle. Content creators and streamers making new irons all the time is a good example of this. The only way to "escape" the mid game is just git gud. This was a nice video in giving some sort of direction to this progression of mindset.
awesome video man. so well broken down and easy to digest.
thanks so much!
I think that the approach I like the best is:
Stop giving a crap about where or what you are in the game. Don't care about the early, mid, late, and endgame bullshit and just go out there and find things you enjoy.
For me, I fucking love the quests in this game, with some exceptions of course...~Rat Catchers~
I love the potential of getting pets, I like the crafting and just casual money making processes. Lately I have gotten a big liking to Duke SUCC for being so damn chill but in the past it was Sarachnis that I really enjoyed fighting.
Just slowing scraping by, overcoming the bond grind as I went.
The process is the best experience in my opinion. Don't rush to shit. Read the dialogues of quests, who knows, maybe you'll actually fall in love with this whacky world like I have.
(No, seriously tho, quests are actually super good in this game.)
What's tough is if what you enjoy is something like maybe doing a raid with friends. Then you convince your friends to make accounts and you all start grinding for a year and eventually everyone has quit and your account still is too weak to try raids even with strangers so in the end it feels like you just had a second job (grinding) and it was a waste of time. ):
Wanna do quests for me?
@@iRsemple It takes like few months at best to have max combat because NMZ is a thing, it's not like you need to be a baller, NMZ makes money by itself, you can probably fire strike in NMZ and stay in profit. This clown game takes 0 effort to get into raids, especially when you don't need any good gear either, just void armor is enough. The moment you start doing raids, you will be able to afford real gear anyway.
just started playing osrs last time I played was in 2009, this video helped a lot, what goals I should work on thank you so much amazing video
Glad it helped!
Great video! Helped me a lot
While the details of the tiers can be argued, this is definitely a much healthier approach to seeing your game progress. Great idea all around 😊
Thanks so much, I agree the splits between tiers is more subjective, this was just my personal take
I'm in tier 2, maybe close to 3 by this metric and I would say that when everything is unlocked and available to you you're no longer in the midgame, no matter the cash or gear situation.
Late game in a more realistic sense. Is full crystal bowfa and a fang. That is when all content becomes available. Good gear order recommendations.
1:44 "Aaaand unfortunately this. You dont want this."
As a uim player fully entrenched in the "mid-game", I agree 😂
XDD
The reason i was and will be forever stuck in midgame (i quit a year ago) is because i focused soo much time into skilling.. if you focus strictly on pvm you nowadays can actually make money very fast, i mean wildy bosses dont require that much up front and you can make soo much money there
As an Ironman (btw), the slayer grind alone felt like the midgame... Early game was prepping for an efficient slayer grind, Mid game was actually grinding to 95 slayer, and Late game is all the fun bossing you get to enjoy after unlocking all the content from slayer. Slayer solves every problem an Ironman has: it gives you unlimited gp, supply drops, and unlocks a boat load of important bosses and gear as well. You'll be doing slayer literally for months, and it will feel like it's never going to end, but once you finally hit that 95 slayer and can just start doing whatever the hell you want, it feels like you're finally out of the mid game and can do the cool shit you've been working towards since the start of the account.
Love the video and the new perspective on account progression.
It's great to have videos like this to remind me I'll never even reach midgame. I don't think I'll ever have the patience to earn that much gp. After an hour of grinding a task for gp, I end up wanting to play something else out of boredom.
The trick is to have several money makers, when I get fed up of doing slayer tasks I go and do herb runs or birdhouses/ chins. Keep it going and you'll get there mate, made my first 20mil recently and felt great.
Pretty cool breakdown :)
"Mid game/adventurer" is the best part imo. Grind to 99 slayer was my favorite part of the game.
Yea lots of diversity in there thanks for watching!
Hope to see more from you
This makes so much sense. I have been stuck in mid game since 08 😭
I play RS3 mainly... Found your channel. This makes me wanna start an iron to experience all that again. Only ever had one main from like 19 years ago and never swapped to OS
I think both osrs and rs3 are amazing games to sink your teeth into. As long as you're having fun you're doing it right
after 4 years i don't even have all med tasks done 56 quests i have 77 points in combat achievements. but i have 99 mining/smithing and have made over 150m just on thoses skills. and people still call me a nub. Great game.
Great video bro!
Appreciate it!
I'm not even done with "1. Adventurer" - Tier, but almost done with the "3. Hero" Tier XD
Just discovered your channel, another great video
Also I like the mic, it's calming haha
Thanks heaps, will have another video coming in a few days !
Just differentiate between late and endgame.
Tutorial Island -> Early game
Barrows Gloves -> Midgame
Quest Cape -> Late Game
Achievement Cape -> Endgame
Awesome vid, definitely subbed now
Ps: great fucking video, very well made, great edits, made me wanna comment without u even asking for it, top notch osrs creator mate, congratz
Thanks so much for watching and your support, comments like this inspire me to keep making content will have a new video coming this weekend!
The wilderness bosses are pretty huge too. I've always been in the mid-game area and never put too many hours into my account. But with black d hide and a c bow (accuracy made it faster than tbp for me) I killed chaos fanatic like 16x per trip. In about 3 hours of killing him, I made 15m, although I did nearly double the drop rate.
Grind, that’s how you escape. Like we all did back in the day. I got my 99’s spending months and losing tons of real life time & experiences, friends, etc. 😂
I clicked thinking i was mid game, but then you showed the pictures and i realized i was early game...
I feel like I completed tier 3 as I reached 575M total. You're 100% correct, the next half bil I require is going to be much easier to attain I feel due to being good at bosses like Muspah and Leviathan.
Great vid!
When I quit RS3 at Evo of combat, I was pretty much about Tier 5 on your list.
It's about a decade later and started OSRS two weeks ago, and am having an absolute blast.
The *mid game* really is just THE GAME, it's great to rush into, but no need to rush through.
You're 100% right no rush, the fun is the journey!
I love how this community is so philosophical about a point-and-click game, beautiful.
😂
This is a nice tier set up. I'm pretty much between hero and veteran. Feeling good
That's a really fun place to be, so many awesome new upgrades and contact unlocks right ahead of you, good luck sir!
this video has brought me back, after having a 450 day break ive broken down short term goals instead of being stuck in a rut... thank you sir.
You got this!
Step 7 is incredibly unrealistic. However, this video was a great breakdown, definitely subbing.
Basically if you’re an Ironman enjoy being trapped in adventurer tier for 4 months, the adventurer tier is basically the beginning of mid game.
Early to "Mid-game" is literally the most fun part of OSRS. End game is just too try hard. Idm end game but only with friends where we don't take it like a second job.
As long as you're having fun you're doing it right as far as I am concerned
I like how every 'escape the midgame' video thumbnail has the player progressing to full bandos
Having 500m by the time you have 95s is a pretty big jump
I'm doing a rebuild after getting hacked 3 years ago. This is honestly the exact video i've been looking for. Thank you.
Good luck on your rebuild!
awesome video man
Thanks so much for watching!
Original thinking is the best. I am on my way to grinding/maxing 2004 style without ever leaving tier 2. haha. You changed my gameplay sir. Thank you.
Your journey is yours and no one elses, do what you enjoy and I wish you all the best sir, thank you for watching !
Namaste

10M is the target for beginner tier? I guess that tier does just include literally the majority of the game.
In all seriousness I do appreciate the separation of the "mid game" into sections as that definitely feels more realistic, whether or not I feel those specific tiers apply.
Getting quest cape in like a 5M gear setup overall wasn't the worst thing ever, even with DT2. Sitting at base 70's in every skill and getting all hard diaries was similar of a step. Honestly I'm just faced with the money wall at this point in my feeling of progression. Still working on my first Fang, though being the person who needs to buy bonds with gold definitely slows things to a crawl.
Best way to get over money walls (prior to going for megas) is to just focus on other things. Money always comes with time especially if you are skilling,especially slayer. Once you get to about 65 sayer is when you make money a little faster in slayer. At 75 you can afk gargoyles with a ring of wealth and bring alch runes and not need to even be on task. Of course there’s bossing and other menial tasks such as cooking for money, doing early ToA etc. but in my experience as a maxed player with a near maxed bank, it was more fun with less gear than most gear.
I make 1 mill per day solely doing farm runs. Started 2 weeks ago with 2.8m cash, now sitting at 17m. Doing fuck all tbh
@@geweet You need several non-trivial quests to be able to do proper farm runs. Making friends with my farm and everything before it unlocks few herb patches, and that alone is a massive boost to every farm run. Video says 10m without mentioning a single quest goal, literal clown.
Farm runs at the stage of the game where you don't even have ectophial are practically waste of time.
literally noone makes 1m/day from farm runs on lv3 account with no quests done unless they make it their job, getting hosidius favor to prevent disease on that patch and a good teleport to it alone is quite a bit of work.
All of those small things add up to a big grind, and that grind is more relevant than having 10m gold, guy who made this video wears full jester outfit in real life.
@@shinobuoshino5066 where did i ever say a level 3 could make the same? All I said is that I make 1 m a day doing farm runs. I dont get why you delved that deep into a small comment stating farming herbs is profitable lol quite the overreaction tbf but you do you
@@shinobuoshino5066 but i sure as hell am a mid level account, sitting on 1600 total being 85 combat. So nothing too crazy, my point was that farm runs alone can make people bank if you do it consistently. Even without trollheim/trollweiss patch. And doing the achievements and quests for the patches/teleports is not only easy as fuck but also necessary to progress your account. All your statements are quite irrelevant tbh
My years break is over - im in the mid game and find it so daunting but got try again!
