The elite for lumby requires the quest cape emote, which requires all quests done. What’s the point in getting this after you don’t need it? Seems so useless.
The Varrock medium diary was very under rated imo. The ability to teleport directly to the GE is really big. For mid level accounts its an easy teleport close to a bank, close to a spirit tree, and for irons its close to Edgeville if you don't have a glory. Also the Kandarin Hard diary's increase in proccing enchanted bolts is multiplicatively applied. So Ruby bolts (e) only go from 6% chance to 6.6% chance.
This! I agreed with a lot of it but was crying at the Varrock medium being in D. For an unrestricted account the time saved by the GE tele is almost immeasurable, and like you said it has a lot of util for restricted accounts as well.
@@Nuvizzlering of wealth is mid and why waste the inv slot for it when varrock teleport is permanent and with rune pouch enables you to tele all over with just 1 slot, or in panic situations use a teletab
@@Alex-lc7vfor sure. Only thing I would say is that sometimes the varr tele is nice for farm runs. Definitely a minor downside, but one that can be annoying if you’re doing those
This is a test to see if you actually want the 5 hour long quest tier list... anyway happy scaping 🤝 Also... you can watch on 2x speed so it's not really that long!
I think that the medium varrocks might be my personal best The ability to set the varrock teleport to the GE saves about 15 seconds each time Which is one of those things where it likely saves me about 5 minutes a week or as a rough guess 4.5hours per year
Can confirm, using Raiments of the Eye to complete “craft x number of runes at once” tasks does work, however, it does not work for the Fremennik one to craft 56 Astral Runes. This is because that is an entire inventory of double runes, and the full raiments only gives you 60% extra runes, so doing that before 82 RC would only yield 45 runes. Still need a spicy stew for that one. It does work however, on anything where the base requirement would be more than 2 runes, since going from 2 to 3 is a 50% increase, the 60% increase covers that. So raiments works on the Runecrafting tasks from Hard Falador, Elite Lumbridge, Elite Varrock, and Elite Falador Diaries, but NOT on the Elite Fremennik and Karamja Diaries. Hope that helps!
@@NoLeather for sure! As a side note, the diary that this helps with the most is the Falador Elite task to craft 252 Air Runes. Normally that requires 88 RC, but as that’s 9 runes per essence, you can actually do it as soon as you’d normally craft 6 per essence, which is level 55. An effective 33 level boost for a diary task. Granted, it’s unlikely that you’ll have the full outfit at 55, but it’s also possible with 3 pieces at level 66, or 2 pieces at level 77. Still a LOT better than getting 88
The thing you missed for hard Ardy is pickpocketing master farmers. They're decent money if you can get the ranarrs (with high farming), but it's really important for irons. Ideally you get ranarrs from farming contracts, sepulchre and other PvM. But if you need to stock up prayer potions quickly, the absolute fastest way by a very large margin is pickpocketing master farmers.
Just wanted to clarify that the 10% extra enchanted bolt bonus is not added to the bolt chance total, but actually 10% of the existing chance. For example, ruby bolts (e) have a 6% base chance to proc, (PvM) and is increased to 6.6% with the Hard Kandarin diary completed (not 16% chance). Most people think it adds 10% more, but it adds 10% to the chance of it occurring.
Great video, thanks for posting! I think you're underrating the Lumby and Varrock elites a bit personally, but to each their own. No dramen staff needed and Zaff's staves are fantastic rewards.
The extra slayer block makes slayer pretty sigmificantly better. I think this is the crux of lumby rewards though it's more abstract and hard to appraise
I agree I think the high alchs for lumby elite is a major part of the elite too, namely because you always have alchs, think barraging nechs or anything where your not on standard spell book. You don't have alchs and you guaranteed will run out of inventory space, the ring takes one slot and gives 30 high alchs. Definitely a top tier elite diary
The saddest thing is you stopped making videos. I don't normally say this but you are the absolute best at making these tutorials. Just perfect and include some funky humour.
Nardah TP on desert elite is pretty solid if you don't have a maxed house for con cape since it's wearable and isn't consumed (not that house tabs are that expensive or anything) but yea, I ended up using it a lot during clues/PVM/afk stuff for recharging and quick teleports/clues.
The easy kandarin headgear offers a niche benefit to snowflake accounts wanting to do pest control. Chopping logs in order to repair doors and barriers can offer reward potential without combat xp, or for 10hp accounts
Lyre is a slept on item. It's the easiest to obtain item that provides you with unlimited teleports super close to a bank, and super close to a POH. Neitiznot tele is super close to a bank, and the POH is portal is super close to the Fremmy teleport. If you hate making teletabs on an iron, it's super good. It even retains a niche as you get other more impressive teleport items, because it takes you near some clue locations, and its also something you can take onto Entrana.
So basically, hard diaries give the best overall rewards for all tiers based on requirements (except easy Ardy which is arguably most important for irons throughout most of the early to mid game). Aim for hard and you’ll be set for a fantastic mid/late game!
I'm trying to get break into endgame on my iron. Like my first raids, gwd drops, corrupt gauntlet, etc. Would be cool to see a ironman gear progression video with all the new updates
The thing about the ardy diary and the cape. For people that don't have fire capes or obby capes yet, the cape is insanely good with its prayer bonus and defences
Double logs from Kandarin 1 is really good for Pest Control on accounts that can’t do combat, since repairing the barricades heals the afk timer, and there’s only a limited number of trees, and usually competition from other pures for those trees.
ya I can see it, just being a +1 to prayer doesn't give me that "game breaking" buff that I kinda had in mind for S tier but it is for sure one of the best rewards
Just want to note that if your an Ironman than the Kandarin Easy Diary also requires 42 I think crafting to make a fishing bowl as you can't just buy one off the AH unless you want to have to do a mini-quest and farm Mogre. Also you need to get farming above 50 for the Easy Mory diary for Watermelons so heads up.
I would love if you could polymorph the higher tier rewards to look like their lower tier counterparts. The tier 2 set is my favourite aesthetically and I'm really not a fan of the garish purple of the final tier. If it was disabled in PVP areas I don't see why we can't choose our fashion.
5:45 honestly, I found the fremennik rewards helpful simply due to a lack of a bank or quick teleports to the area. And before I realized I could build a portal to Lunar Isle, I had Peer the Seer deposit my lyre while attempting the Dragon Slayer 2 boss, so I didn't risk losing it on death. As for my current grind, I just finished the longest one so far of unlocking and completing Song of the Elves last night, so I guess next is either Gauntlet or a quest cape. Right now I'm dealing with messy code at work, though.
Thanks bro! Working on diaries chipping away slowly, got my Fremont diary need 88 rc and that is elite and done. Got all my hards done rn, but definitely appreciate the vid. Hella cool
ive decided to take a more casual approach to RuneScape and have decided to follow in the footsteps of TaskSpoon, an ironman locked into collection log tasks. im doing it on my main that i started playing a couple months ago as my first account and this will get me doing all sorts of stuff and its been super fun so far, cant wait to see where it ends up. currently getting my second piece of prospectors
@@GoyimNewsNetwork yea, I mean it's not super strict or anything just kinda serves as a goal for when I get lost / bored of different content and keeps my collection log lookin nice. 8ts definitely gotten me to o content I wouldn't have and made me explore stuff
The Burthorpe Chaos Temple agility shortcut has some other uses, like if you're going Turael boosting and get a goblin task or telegrabbing wines from the temple and banking them
The only diaries that Raiments of the Eye helps with are Falador Hard, L&D Elite, Varrock Elite, and Falador Elite. These are listed on the wiki page for the outfit. As the full set only grants a 1.6x multiplier, it cannot supplant the Runecrafting level needed to craft 2 runes of a certain type per essence.
The outfit has a small qol use for the double rune tasks like fremmy and karamja. Since it's a 1.6x, you can craft the correct number of runes with less essence, so you can actually take stews with you to the altar. Still need the correct level, but you don't need to run from a bank when you get the boost or have a friend/alt trade you essence.
for the kandarin headband, it has hunter uses when ur tease/ rockfall hunting. you get 2 logs instead of 1 so less time spent cutting wood and more time spent hunting. really nice for hunting contracts.
I'll contribute to the algorithm! I'm one of that rare players you in the skillcape video, working on c log. I'm not a skilled player, started playing when I was a kid, and always risk averse. I've only recently started doing harder combat challenges. I'm nearly base 70s and hoping to max inferno cape eventually. Right now, I'm working on Gnome Restaurant and aerial fishing, although I switch around frequently. I try to take advantage of daily slime and bonemeal, battlestaves, and flax to train skills I otherwise find boring.
Hell yeah! I'm loving the Combat Achievement locked ironman by Vannaka, and I post my successes in his comments as he does his. It's super satisfying to see a low level account get those achievements and makes me confident I can do them myself!
On my ironman, the lumby easy ring was huge for getting free early mage levels by alching at the mage training arena. You can get 1-2k xp a day with without any runes. Plus the run energy is nice.
@Steven-hq3go yeah, to clarify, you don't get xp directly from casting the spell, but you will get the xp reward for performing the alch mini game in the mage training arena.
I think you undervalued the ardy hard diary, as it's stats while equipped are pretty reliable as well. It, and it's successor the ardy elite cape, are two of the only wearable items for regular accounts due to the BiS stab attack bonus, and the prayer bonus they provide. It's definitely better than medium, for sure.
Awesome video. One quick point, 95 slayer for hydra can not be boosted to kill the boss, you can boost to kill slayer monsters but not ones that are task only.
not sure what your point is here? seeing as you only need to kill a normal hydra for the diary, which i did boosted. I was 90 slayer when i did this diary.
Ardy hard in B tier is craaazy, that pickpocketing boost is huge for elves and vyres. Desert hard is also S tier for irons, making unfinished potions and crushing nests etc in nardah is such a big boost to herblore. Fremennik hard is also at least A tier for herb runs, getting to that herb patch is a pain in the ass without the diary.
Mutagen grind while watching this video. Seems like I'm able to get just about every unique but a mutagen, but we keep on keeping on despite it. Thanks for the video bro.
Not sure if anyone said it yet but the Kandarin easy diary helm doubles the logs from simple trees and that’s really good for hunter rumours. Makes getting the logs much easier
Currently I just got d skim and defender and I’m trying to figure out what stats/gear/account upgrades I need/should try to get before doing barrows. Would love to see a vid about what you can get away with for the bare minimum barrows gear/stats and what you should/can do to optimize (like mortaynia legs and house pool I’ve read are really useful).
Barrows can be done with very little gear. For stats, I'd suggest training to 70's so you can wear good gear and get decently fast kills, but you could get away with lower if you really want to. You can camp melee gear for most of the brothers since they have negative mage defense. You only want you magic weapon and any gear with % damage boost. For low budget, trident+occult necklace will be fine. Bring an msb(i) or bp (if you are ok with charge costs) to kill ahrim along with a mage gear switch since you want the accuracy on him. Use your dscim+defender to get reward potential in the crypts, and only get enough reward potential to get the tier of runes you want(73-88% for most gp). Depending on gear and levels, melee may be better than mage on karil too. For upgrades, MA2 cape is a free bis mage item, medium combat achievement hilt negates the prayer drain when worn, and hard mory diary gives bonus runes. Bring strange old lockpick to speed up trips. Lower req teles will be a dueling ring and barrows tele tabs. When you are able to do your runs without losing any hp, you can just build an altar and a barrows portal in your poh.
Barrows is easy i did it with 70 combat stats, a staff of iban for the melee bros, and a rune crossbow with dhide for ahrim, d scim and defender for the crypt
The Ardy cloak itself is a very useful cape too for it's stats, and each tier increase said stats. Specially Medium, it doubles the stats of easy, and makes it quite viable to use. +4 prayer(and some melee atk and def) is nothing to snuff at.
I just graduated college, I’m also a full time teacher and school gets out in May. My goal is to get CG pet by summer and get my Quest cape back during summer 👍
The fact that none of the desert amulets even have any equipment stats feels so wrong to me. Their RS3 counterparts do, with the elite reward being like a weaker amulet of glory. There's just no reason to ever wear them. If they had stats you could at least use them in the Wilderness.
Having personally just unlocked it, I think Lumbridge Hard is a bit underrated. Extra Tears xp is awesome for training skills you hate, and the teleports being unlimited has been really handy for both herb runs and questing. Dont have to stress about using up your limited daily teleports anymore.
I'm just working on agility courses while listening to you. I'm actually at work but my work is "wait to get a call then help caller" so the waiting part i have much free time.
rada's blessing, explorers ring and ardy cloak are really worth talking about for the stats. getting a non-clue scroll blessing is huge and the easy/medium cape is practically bis before fight caves. all 3 are free prayer bonus items you can take into the wildy with zero risk also i can tell you haven't done some of these in a long time since you didn't even mention the gout tuber when talking about karamja medium. that thing is 1.2m on the GE as of writing this
Rada's blessing is also a BIS stat item starting at med tier is identical to the clue blessings but at elite it is actual BIS in it's slot. Similar to Torva or Misori or any of the mega rares for Mage Ranged and Melee. Not saying it's as good as those items just that it is BIS!@@NoLeather
Maybe I'm on an island here, but Wilderness Easy is A tier in my book because of being able to pull the lever to get back to edgeville. Being able to go from deep wildy to a bank quickly without any other teleports is very convienent imo and given its an easy diary, the quality of life boost is impactful at any level.
Gotta say, I disagree for Lumby Ring 3/4 being any less than S for pre-Construction cape (which most people will be at, generally). Infinite cabbage Port with a Spirit Tree in your house and planted at Port Sarim is a ~12% run energy (0kg) trip to virtually any TP you can afford to setup in your house when you can plant Spirit Trees. No Dramen Staffs needed for Fairy Rings means an extra inventory space for Fairy Ring tasks and an even faster trip to your house (albeit, mouse usage vs keyboard usage). No need to buy tabs, just bring a QC or Ring (you usually should be bringing an emergency TP regardless, which you can adjust the items to be with RL). The emergency TP point becomes less relevant when not using RL, however.
if the noted daga bones woukd come at hards, it would be incredibly good. at elite it just kind if comes too late, most people are done with dks by that time
Now that hunter rumours are a thing, I'd Deffo agree with the double logs you get from the headpiece making it a tier, just makes life easier when you want to stay hunting at a spot longer to search for the rumoured piece
I’m actually working on base 80s and to complete that I hate RC and will do my achievement diaries to complete my goal so this video added to my motivation. Thanks!
For Karamja Medium, 100% favor isn't too bad. The true showstopper is exchanging gems for a gem machete, purely for the gout tuber requirement. Those things are so obnoxiously rare for how little you actually get to do with them. I played Cleanup for over two hours and didn't get a single one, to the point where spending 750k on the Grand Exchange just for a single diary requirement started to look real tempting. Fremennik diary, making your way through Waterbirth Isle was the most annoying for me. It's an incredibly long dungeon full of constant attacks without even a moment to rest and get your bearings, and for the relatively low level you can do the rest of medium diary at, it's very easy to get slaughtered trying to make it through.
desert amulet 1 is good for irons. goat horn is used for combat pots which i think most irons will want. so if they drop in noted form it just makes farming much easier. all you need is combat gear, 1 slot for noted goat horn, 1 slot for combat pot, 26 slots for waterskins.
Easy Ardy Cape is the most useful item in the game for the investment. On my GIMP, I've probably used that TP thousands if not tens of thousands of times. It's the easiest Fairy Ring early on. I even use it on my main regularly.
Just found your channel! I'm pretty much a noob of OSRS, but I started an osaat account pretty soon after I found this game. Working on leveling my magic 1-99. :D Enjoying watching your series while I play.
Thanks for the list! I'm actually pretty new to osrs, I never played as a kid and my account is only around 4mil xp. Currently working on getting the prospector gear and some mining lvls ^•^
@@NoLeather I got my easy ardougne diary done right after this and it truly is a game changer! I'm having a lot of fun figuring stuff out and your videos are a great help tysm ❤
the "money maker" brainrot is so real and pervasive. noooooone of these rewards are bad for irons, but the focus on profit, profit, profit, devalues the achievement diaries as a whole. it's sad. the game is so much more fun when you dont engage with the economy, its actually insane
Well that entirely depends what you find fun lol, once I de ironed my alt, and could buy things like pots, food, items for quests I found I was having a lot more fun and was able to skip a lot of tedium and chores and do the content I wanted to do and actually enjoyed.
84 buckets a day is a nice free 2.5k for logging in (doesn't matter if current on membership) so it makes a nice little daily log reward, but that only would add up to a little under 900k over an entire year. or a bond for logging in every day for a decade worth. so very much on the little side.
GL with 99 agility! Its such a good feeling to get that one done, any ring luck at sepulchre? I'm like 250~ GHC with no ring still and I keep putting off finishing it
I feel you are underrating a LOT of these diaries early on . since you are mentioning ironman for some of them I will assume you are talking about all.. the 10% for example on marks of grace is still very useful as you need them to make stamina pots if you are an iron man.. which again .. is useful even when you have full graceful. Varrock armour is pretty decent as its faster xp if you intend on power mining iron ore.. or even doing GOTR. The Frememnick diary is useful early on to claim those arrows as an iron man.. makes it easier as you wont have to craft as much . Its the little things early on that make the biggest difference as people won't automatically have the money to just go to the G.E and buy everything.
ive been addicted to WoW dragonflight lately, but i have a double monitor set up so i do boring afdk tasks on my second monitor. barbarian fishing, mlm, and woodcutting to eventually fletch, then high alch bows for gp
Underating Kourend Woodland. faster to get to Woodcutting Guild redwoods/bank area than the skills necklace. Right by the recharge point for Kharedst/Dead thus facilitating all the assocated teleports. there's a bank by the port so unless youre ranging you can always have a last resort "i forgot other teles" item always on you thats better than home tele.
I always wanted lumby elite to not use Dramen staff. However by the time I got there I had 99 construction and mage, and can’t even remember last time I used a fairy ring.
Not including Lumby elite in S is insane. That's the single most game changing one since it saves you an inventory space in almost every single activity that you do. Top of S tier imo.
Kandarin medium is way better than c tier. 5% more herbs is huge. 10% more marks of grace is huge as well since you will use seers village agility course for pretty much the entire grind of agility unless you suffer through sepulcher. The most annoying thing with it is also barbarian assault. Idk how that wasn't even mentioned.
I'd be down for a master tier, but I don't know if they really left enough level gap for it... But if they added another region like varlamore, they'd have to double up on something, maybe weapon/shield slot if they offer another physical item for it just have to make it not a sword/shield, so bow/staff book/defender/hilt something like that
@@NoLeather True, someone on reddit mentioned a jaw slot available (the blue/red circle under your player from soul wars uses it) which I thought was interesting
Lumby Elite is S tier just for the fact that you never have to use a dramen staff ever again.

ive decided to take a more casual approach to RuneScape and have decided to follow in the footsteps of TaskSpoon, an ironman locked into collection log tasks. im doing it on my main that i started playing a couple months ago as my first account and this will get me doing all sorts of stuff and its been super fun so far, cant wait to see where it ends up. currently getting my second piece of prospectors
Always good to enjoy it casually, makes the game much more fun! Best of luck with your grinds my man!
That is FAR from casual lmao. But sounds fun man glad you’re enjoying the game in you’re own way
@@GoyimNewsNetwork yea, I mean it's not super strict or anything just kinda serves as a goal for when I get lost / bored of different content and keeps my collection log lookin nice. 8ts definitely gotten me to o content I wouldn't have and made me explore stuff
The Burthorpe Chaos Temple agility shortcut has some other uses, like if you're going Turael boosting and get a goblin task or telegrabbing wines from the temple and banking them
Wild, wasn’t expecting it to be this long. I’m here for the ride though haha thanks for the content
appreciate you 🤝
hey nice i just found you the other day and was like "i really like these videos" and then i get blessed with one today
appreciate it! I've been really trying to put out something every 3 or 4 days so there's always gonna be something new cooking 🤝
double logs from normal trees is nice when training hunter making the pitfall traps
ooo good shout, someone else also said the double logs are good for pest control
The only diaries that Raiments of the Eye helps with are Falador Hard, L&D Elite, Varrock Elite, and Falador Elite. These are listed on the wiki page for the outfit. As the full set only grants a 1.6x multiplier, it cannot supplant the Runecrafting level needed to craft 2 runes of a certain type per essence.
The outfit has a small qol use for the double rune tasks like fremmy and karamja. Since it's a 1.6x, you can craft the correct number of runes with less essence, so you can actually take stews with you to the altar. Still need the correct level, but you don't need to run from a bank when you get the boost or have a friend/alt trade you essence.
Varrock and raiment need eachother 😅
working towards Hard for each Diary, Quest Cape (only 23 quests left), base 70s, and my 3rd 99!!
big for the account! good luck fella!
for the kandarin headband, it has hunter uses when ur tease/ rockfall hunting. you get 2 logs instead of 1 so less time spent cutting wood and more time spent hunting. really nice for hunting contracts.
Listened to this while fishing/working from home. Good shit
my man 🤝
I'll contribute to the algorithm! I'm one of that rare players you in the skillcape video, working on c log. I'm not a skilled player, started playing when I was a kid, and always risk averse. I've only recently started doing harder combat challenges. I'm nearly base 70s and hoping to max inferno cape eventually.
Right now, I'm working on Gnome Restaurant and aerial fishing, although I switch around frequently. I try to take advantage of daily slime and bonemeal, battlestaves, and flax to train skills I otherwise find boring.
my man 🤝 as long as you're enjoying the journey along the way thats all that really matters! Best of luck with your grinds!
Hell yeah! I'm loving the Combat Achievement locked ironman by Vannaka, and I post my successes in his comments as he does his. It's super satisfying to see a low level account get those achievements and makes me confident I can do them myself!
On my ironman, the lumby easy ring was huge for getting free early mage levels by alching at the mage training arena. You can get 1-2k xp a day with without any runes. Plus the run energy is nice.
Yeah for real!
Explorer Ring is low-key dope!!
@@josh7827 I didn't know you could use those alchs for mage training arena, that's massive for early irons
@Steven-hq3go yeah, to clarify, you don't get xp directly from casting the spell, but you will get the xp reward for performing the alch mini game in the mage training arena.
I think you undervalued the ardy hard diary, as it's stats while equipped are pretty reliable as well. It, and it's successor the ardy elite cape, are two of the only wearable items for regular accounts due to the BiS stab attack bonus, and the prayer bonus they provide. It's definitely better than medium, for sure.
100% ardy cape is actually really good as an equipable, just bias from never personally wearing it
Awesome video.
One quick point, 95 slayer for hydra can not be boosted to kill the boss, you can boost to kill slayer monsters but not ones that are task only.
not sure what your point is here? seeing as you only need to kill a normal hydra for the diary, which i did boosted.
I was 90 slayer when i did this diary.
Ardy hard in B tier is craaazy, that pickpocketing boost is huge for elves and vyres. Desert hard is also S tier for irons, making unfinished potions and crushing nests etc in nardah is such a big boost to herblore. Fremennik hard is also at least A tier for herb runs, getting to that herb patch is a pain in the ass without the diary.
Crushing nests and unfinished potions is easy though. Not like people are making that many potions at once
Mutagen grind while watching this video. Seems like I'm able to get just about every unique but a mutagen, but we keep on keeping on despite it. Thanks for the video bro.
mutagen grind is a long one, best of luck my man !
Varrock chestplate 1 is the best in slot item for 1 defence pures as well.
Good shout!
It happened! We’ve been yearning for two hours of you talking about your opinion on stuff we all already know ;)
🤣🤣🤣
Not sure if anyone said it yet but the Kandarin easy diary helm doubles the logs from simple trees and that’s really good for hunter rumours. Makes getting the logs much easier
Back after 3 years - straight into achievement diary grind …. Quest cape was first thing I done, this will be second
Currently I just got d skim and defender and I’m trying to figure out what stats/gear/account upgrades I need/should try to get before doing barrows. Would love to see a vid about what you can get away with for the bare minimum barrows gear/stats and what you should/can do to optimize (like mortaynia legs and house pool I’ve read are really useful).
Barrows can be done with very little gear. For stats, I'd suggest training to 70's so you can wear good gear and get decently fast kills, but you could get away with lower if you really want to. You can camp melee gear for most of the brothers since they have negative mage defense. You only want you magic weapon and any gear with % damage boost. For low budget, trident+occult necklace will be fine. Bring an msb(i) or bp (if you are ok with charge costs) to kill ahrim along with a mage gear switch since you want the accuracy on him. Use your dscim+defender to get reward potential in the crypts, and only get enough reward potential to get the tier of runes you want(73-88% for most gp). Depending on gear and levels, melee may be better than mage on karil too. For upgrades, MA2 cape is a free bis mage item, medium combat achievement hilt negates the prayer drain when worn, and hard mory diary gives bonus runes. Bring strange old lockpick to speed up trips. Lower req teles will be a dueling ring and barrows tele tabs. When you are able to do your runs without losing any hp, you can just build an altar and a barrows portal in your poh.
Barrows is easy i did it with 70 combat stats, a staff of iban for the melee bros, and a rune crossbow with dhide for ahrim, d scim and defender for the crypt
The Ardy cloak itself is a very useful cape too for it's stats, and each tier increase said stats. Specially Medium, it doubles the stats of easy, and makes it quite viable to use. +4 prayer(and some melee atk and def) is nothing to snuff at.
I just graduated college, I’m also a full time teacher and school gets out in May. My goal is to get CG pet by summer and get my Quest cape back during summer 👍
Love your videos, super helpful for a beginner player like me.
I’m Attempting the quest cape. 71 quests finished so far so a bit under half way done
A use case for the kandorian helm is pest control on a pure that you're trying to keep the HP low
Good use case! I didn't even think about that
Is a bit annoying but it ia one of the only ways to get str and at exp without hp exp. I have done this and it does help a lot
The fact that none of the desert amulets even have any equipment stats feels so wrong to me. Their RS3 counterparts do, with the elite reward being like a weaker amulet of glory.
There's just no reason to ever wear them. If they had stats you could at least use them in the Wilderness.
Having personally just unlocked it, I think Lumbridge Hard is a bit underrated. Extra Tears xp is awesome for training skills you hate, and the teleports being unlimited has been really handy for both herb runs and questing. Dont have to stress about using up your limited daily teleports anymore.
I made risotto and did Mahogany Homes during this video! Working on 70-85 construction on my ironman 😊
Risotto sounds really good right now 😂 best of luck on the construction grind! 🤝
Im picpocketing while listening.
I'm just working on agility courses while listening to you. I'm actually at work but my work is "wait to get a call then help caller" so the waiting part i have much free time.
the wiki says that the hard kanadrin diary effect works even in pvp not just pvm. love the video btw man!
Thanks for the videos I work outside and I just put my earbuds in and listen to this it’s great to listen to while I work!
"fellas. its time for another long video that you can just listen to in the background while you're scaping"
Say less brother
🤝
rada's blessing, explorers ring and ardy cloak are really worth talking about for the stats. getting a non-clue scroll blessing is huge and the easy/medium cape is practically bis before fight caves. all 3 are free prayer bonus items you can take into the wildy with zero risk
also i can tell you haven't done some of these in a long time since you didn't even mention the gout tuber when talking about karamja medium. that thing is 1.2m on the GE as of writing this
I always forget how good the ardy cloak is that thing slaps, and you are very right I did the karamja diary probably in 2016! 😂
Rada's blessing is also a BIS stat item starting at med tier is identical to the clue blessings but at elite it is actual BIS in it's slot. Similar to Torva or Misori or any of the mega rares for Mage Ranged and Melee. Not saying it's as good as those items just that it is BIS!@@NoLeather
Maybe I'm on an island here, but Wilderness Easy is A tier in my book because of being able to pull the lever to get back to edgeville. Being able to go from deep wildy to a bank quickly without any other teleports is very convienent imo and given its an easy diary, the quality of life boost is impactful at any level.
I watched until the end, and was scaping. You just gained a sub !
Gotta say, I disagree for Lumby Ring 3/4 being any less than S for pre-Construction cape (which most people will be at, generally).
Infinite cabbage Port with a Spirit Tree in your house and planted at Port Sarim is a ~12% run energy (0kg) trip to virtually any TP you can afford to setup in your house when you can plant Spirit Trees. No Dramen Staffs needed for Fairy Rings means an extra inventory space for Fairy Ring tasks and an even faster trip to your house (albeit, mouse usage vs keyboard usage).
No need to buy tabs, just bring a QC or Ring (you usually should be bringing an emergency TP regardless, which you can adjust the items to be with RL). The emergency TP point becomes less relevant when not using RL, however.
Working on hard western providence diary so I can upgrade my void. Have all the pest control points thank goodness.
huge for the account, gl fella! 🤝
if the noted daga bones woukd come at hards, it would be incredibly good. at elite it just kind if comes too late, most people are done with dks by that time
ya would be nice for a majority of players if it came from hards
Now that hunter rumours are a thing, I'd Deffo agree with the double logs you get from the headpiece making it a tier, just makes life easier when you want to stay hunting at a spot longer to search for the rumoured piece
I’m actually working on base 80s and to complete that I hate RC and will do my achievement diaries to complete my goal so this video added to my motivation. Thanks!
my man! best of luck with the grind it will all pay off
For Karamja Medium, 100% favor isn't too bad. The true showstopper is exchanging gems for a gem machete, purely for the gout tuber requirement. Those things are so obnoxiously rare for how little you actually get to do with them. I played Cleanup for over two hours and didn't get a single one, to the point where spending 750k on the Grand Exchange just for a single diary requirement started to look real tempting.
Fremennik diary, making your way through Waterbirth Isle was the most annoying for me. It's an incredibly long dungeon full of constant attacks without even a moment to rest and get your bearings, and for the relatively low level you can do the rest of medium diary at, it's very easy to get slaughtered trying to make it through.
desert amulet 1 is good for irons. goat horn is used for combat pots which i think most irons will want. so if they drop in noted form it just makes farming much easier. all you need is combat gear, 1 slot for noted goat horn, 1 slot for combat pot, 26 slots for waterskins.
I've just been using attack and strength from warriors guild store
@@Steven-hq3go until you get supers its always nice to save that extra inventory slot
Radas blessing teleport is good if you are training theiving + another skill at port piscarillius. You need to go there a lot.
Easy Ardy Cape is the most useful item in the game for the investment. On my GIMP, I've probably used that TP thousands if not tens of thousands of times. It's the easiest Fairy Ring early on. I even use it on my main regularly.
The relieka deposit box is good for buying then banking sardens for ironman for creature creation getting red spider eggs.
Bro had me at "fellaaaass"
my man 🤝
im working on my early ironman right now! doing some quests and getting graceful
I’d never played an Ironman-type mode until Leagues 2. That League made me fall in love with the Ardy Cloak haha. Hadn’t ever really cared before.
great moves ethan, keep it up
a classic
Just found your channel! I'm pretty much a noob of OSRS, but I started an osaat account pretty soon after I found this game. Working on leveling my magic 1-99. :D Enjoying watching your series while I play.
Thanks for the list! I'm actually pretty new to osrs, I never played as a kid and my account is only around 4mil xp. Currently working on getting the prospector gear and some mining lvls ^•^
Remember to always have fun! No need to rush anything, the journey is the fun part!
@@NoLeather I got my easy ardougne diary done right after this and it truly is a game changer! I'm having a lot of fun figuring stuff out and your videos are a great help tysm ❤
"play this in the background while you're scaping" finally some scapist recognition
the "money maker" brainrot is so real and pervasive. noooooone of these rewards are bad for irons, but the focus on profit, profit, profit, devalues the achievement diaries as a whole. it's sad. the game is so much more fun when you dont engage with the economy, its actually insane
Well that entirely depends what you find fun lol, once I de ironed my alt, and could buy things like pots, food, items for quests I found I was having a lot more fun and was able to skip a lot of tedium and chores and do the content I wanted to do and actually enjoyed.
84 buckets a day is a nice free 2.5k for logging in (doesn't matter if current on membership) so it makes a nice little daily log reward, but that only would add up to a little under 900k over an entire year. or a bond for logging in every day for a decade worth. so very much on the little side.
These vids really reduce the stress of my early-mid game ass doing wildy slayer
The frem easy peer the seer being a bank deposit is useful for irons to buy a lot if sardines to make spidines to get red spiders eggs.
good use case!
gonna be a great listen im sure, currently im working on 99 agility through sepulchre, about to hit 96 so im hoping to have it done soon
GL with 99 agility! Its such a good feeling to get that one done, any ring luck at sepulchre? I'm like 250~ GHC with no ring still and I keep putting off finishing it
yeah I look forward to being done for sure :D im actrually at 249 kc and no ring too, coping that it will come before 99 agility though@@NoLeather
Hopefully you get a nice little b2b in there somewhere 🤝
thanks dude, best of luck to you as well when you decide to come back :D@@NoLeather
I'm working on trying to get an untrimmed slayer cape! Up there for one of the worst things I've ever done lol
that sounds like one hell of a grind, best of luck fella!
I feel you are underrating a LOT of these diaries early on . since you are mentioning ironman for some of them I will assume you are talking about all.. the 10% for example on marks of grace is still very useful as you need them to make stamina pots if you are an iron man.. which again .. is useful even when you have full graceful. Varrock armour is pretty decent as its faster xp if you intend on power mining iron ore.. or even doing GOTR. The Frememnick diary is useful early on to claim those arrows as an iron man.. makes it easier as you wont have to craft as much . Its the little things early on that make the biggest difference as people won't automatically have the money to just go to the G.E and buy everything.
Varrock medium giving you the ability to tp right to the ge is sss teir
Best tele in game tbh
ive been addicted to WoW dragonflight lately, but i have a double monitor set up so i do boring afdk tasks on my second monitor. barbarian fishing, mlm, and woodcutting to eventually fletch, then high alch bows for gp
Underating Kourend Woodland. faster to get to Woodcutting Guild redwoods/bank area than the skills necklace. Right by the recharge point for Kharedst/Dead thus facilitating all the assocated teleports. there's a bank by the port so unless youre ranging you can always have a last resort "i forgot other teles" item always on you thats better than home tele.
actually true, I would assume I just have bias in not using it pretty much at all, but all of that sounds super beneficial for a variety of reasons
I always wanted lumby elite to not use Dramen staff. However by the time I got there I had 99 construction and mage, and can’t even remember last time I used a fairy ring.
Perfect video for on the side! Love long videos
my man 🤝
You definitely underrated the ardy cloak 4 and the fact it's BIS for a few pieces of wildy content.
Plus easiest and best emergency tele. Or slayer tele. Cuz u end up right at a ring o and altar. 😅
Kandarian easy reward is incredibly powerful for people who want to do pest control via repairing the gates/barricades
Working on neglecting stuff I should do like fire cape or grandmaster quests and instead levelling slayer because it’s big comfy and more fun for me
Slayer for sure. Gargoyle and abyssals is a thing i would love to have
Not including Lumby elite in S is insane. That's the single most game changing one since it saves you an inventory space in almost every single activity that you do. Top of S tier imo.
I’m on the falador diary atm. Just need a more reliable moneymaker to get to virtus, and mole seems like the right direction.
I’m saving this for when I do some rc later but commenting now for the Algo
Kandarin headgear is really nice when you got to pitfall for hunter rumours.
Kandarin medium is way better than c tier.
5% more herbs is huge. 10% more marks of grace is huge as well since you will use seers village agility course for pretty much the entire grind of agility unless you suffer through sepulcher.
The most annoying thing with it is also barbarian assault. Idk how that wasn't even mentioned.
do you think they'll make new diary tiers or even add one for varlamore? if so what item slot do you think would be introduced?
I'd be down for a master tier, but I don't know if they really left enough level gap for it... But if they added another region like varlamore, they'd have to double up on something, maybe weapon/shield slot if they offer another physical item for it just have to make it not a sword/shield, so bow/staff book/defender/hilt something like that
@@NoLeather True, someone on reddit mentioned a jaw slot available (the blue/red circle under your player from soul wars uses it) which I thought was interesting
that'd be cool af, would love see what they'd do with it
Bolt proc from Kand hard is plus 10% to the base 6% chance so it adds .6% to proc
Currently working on wintertodt, I'm on 81 out of 99, hoping to get it done in the next day or two!
