5:10... that inferno cape would be much cooler if it where been some sort of "lava-lamp" so you can actually see the flow of lava.. i mean it's a cape made from lava right.!?!?!?!?
Hell im watching this with 500m bank value(100m straight coins) and thats after 2-3 years of playing, tho i have bought avernic hilt and a few other non perma upgrades so its probably more close to 600m value but still im slowly inching towards that 1b 😂
Hahah ikr, I will say though there's a lot of passive ways to make money. I've been making about 1m per day with farm and bird house runs and I'm up to like 25m bank without even noticing.
Max house suuuuper overrated, especially for irons who cant just buy tabs Dueling rings and w330 exists and i dont even have a maxed house on my 2100 total main, only did it on my iron for doing corp
One tip, I’d swap the anguish and the POH. You don’t realize how insane a max house is until you get a max house. It’s the single biggest QoL and timesaver you can get and will improve your gameplay in ways you wont realize until you have it. That’s much more meaningful than +1 max hit with ranged
People will hate on this and say to just play in w330 but having done 86 con on both a main and an iron and making my own little 3x3 "max" house exactly the way I want it- 1000% worth every time. Huge qol improvement for basically everything you do from that point on.
@@joewee yeah you can just log in and play. You don’t have to world swap for every single activity. We’ve all been 330 players, but I feel like the people who say that are just in denial about how insane having your own house is. It’s like when you first unlock the Lumby Elite and don’t need a Dramen Staff anymore. It’s something that you always had to think about that you just never have to even consider anymore
I’d agree with this… I didn’t realize how amazing a POH would be until I got one. The rejuvenation pool and tele options make it indispensable, and now I almost never tele anywhere without stopping at the house for a quick energy and stat restore.
The PoH is such a massive time/resource sink that to prioritize it so early would burn a *lot* of people out before they can really sink their teeth into the mid-late game so it's honestly not worth prioritizing so early unless you know you're already hopelessly addicted to the game
I personally think this is really good game design. OSRS is all about long term goals, having such a meaty gp goal actually gives you a reason to grind bosses in the late game. Personally I always have a policy of never selling expensive items. I just grind out gp till I have enough for an item I want. Like there has literally only been twice that I even sold my bank for an item. Once was the ZCB where I sold like half my bank, the other was the elysian spirit shield soon after where I sold the other half. I am glad I did because it unlocked way better money makers, but I feel once you have god bis items like that and have content to grind, there is no sense in selling stuff for gear. Like for instance I have no qualms over not having the tbow for another year. It will probably be the last mega rare that I get because I will be getting the cheaper ones first. I mean heck I have honestly kinda transitioned away from grinding gp in the first place, I am actually more focused on hiscores than anything right now. Due to that hiscore chasing I end up with 10s of thousands of kills at bosses, doing so leads to a crap ton of money just piling up. It is nice to have items to work towards so I can feel like I am filling an additional exp bar. Because some of these grinds will end with me having over 10b in gold, which will mean I will have nothing to spend it on after a while. I don't look forward to that day. Whenever I reach the point in which I have pretty much all the gear I will probably fully transition to spending my gp on collecting items. I already have upwards of a hundred things I am collecting, but at that point I will probably actually start buying bulk stuff from other collectors. But something about that is just less engaging than working towards a new piece of gear I have never gotten to use. So legit, enjoy the journey.
To have a late game stab that you can buy for that cheap the gang is a must. Whip/fang and you are pretty set until 90+ melee. It’s actually insane it should be 100m
Amulets of glory is a great purchase, they go for more uncharged than with charges. Free teleports and good stats. Instead of stamina, use energy potions you make yourself, very cheap and trains the acc.
Great point! Making energy pots is a great early herb training method (and not terribly expensive) and you can use them for questing instead of overpriced stams. Stams are necessary when inventory space is at a premium, which is not usually the case with most of the early and mid-game quests.
@@littlereesie i made 200 first then another 600 at some point. I started 1.5 months ago. I just carry like 2-3 always, i got a lot of levels making them from scratch, sold a few for profit. 2 energy pots is enough for a tree run and a birdhouse run
ive returned after a few years off and have been doing the optimal quest guide and just doing small money makers inbetween quests and i feel like this is the right way to play the game
Hey man....hope you're doing well. I really like the "economic analysis" part of your content. Why something is going up in price or down... i wish the RUclips algorithm felt the same way. Great content. Much love.
As someone who recently started playing again on a new account I highly recommend going to W330 and using other people's houses... it makes getting around the game so easy and you don't even have to worry about having the magic level to use the teleports (some are locked behind quests). You can also refresh all of your stats in the ornate pool and house teleports only cost about 500 gp so alongside stamina's you're all set. You can even use the fairy ring and tree spirit from other people's houses. The other thing I highly recommend is getting full obsidian with berserker necklace once you hit base 60s melee... it is the best armour set you can use until 93 hp where dharok starts to beat it and it's only about 6.5m with the obsidian weapon. Other than that great video as always! Loved your content for a long time and getting back to OSRS you're always my go to :).
Max POH (or near it) is an absolute game changer. It will absolutely allow you to play and accomplish more than saving it for later. Quality of life goes a very long way even if it’s not strictly financially efficient.
If you don't have alot of money. Don't barrage. Ice burst instead. yes it's slower but alot cheaper. If you really want to save money burst at temple spiders and pick up stackables. alot slower xp but almost free xp with the looted stuff.
For early magic levels, the arceuus library is a really good training method. I went 30->55 on my iron before kourend favor was removed and the xp rates were increased nearly 50%, and it was already a good method then. If you start training from level 30 or so, you can hit 51 in an hour or two - the only expensive part would be if you buy stamina potions if you want to speed things up even further. I'm not sure what the next best xprates are at those levels but you can get 50k-75k xp/hr at level 34 with suboptimal efficiency (depending on stamina)
In that first melee setup with rune i would toss in a mixed hide cape. and that last set up i would use barrows gloves in the ranged setup maybe even the vorkath backpack. i also dont really feel like the malediction ward is worth it cuz its not used. Avernic is like the last pvm item you should buy, like after torva and all 3 mega rares. with that extra money id buy a spec weapon. voidwaker maybe.
just a notable mention i would always refer to, rather than a berserker ring and imbuing it... why not go for the brimstone ring... it has the same stats of all the dagannoth rings in their unimbued state, so it can be used for magic range or mage, and only costs 3m
The other rings don't really matter though. The archer's ring is just ranged accuracy, and the seers ring is just mage accuracy. The berserker ring is the only one that matters, as it gives strength *bonus,* and will be the only ring that actually increases your max hits, which is miles more important than accuracy in a lot of cases.
This was a cool vid idea. I actually found it helpful because even after so much time into rs I always find myself wondering wtf im gonna buy off the ge lol.
Cool video! Great advice! I would recommend getting 94 mage at 100m and not worrying at any point about getting 99. Range also is going to train itself fairly quickly I would leave it at 90-94 and let my pvm get the rest
For most quests for players with not much money I'd recommend normal energy potions instead of staminas. They're way cheaper, and for most quests you won't be using the full 2 minutes of running from each dose so you'd be sometimes be wasting a partial dose here and there.
Genuinely don't even worry about money until you've finished almost all the quests and have roughly base 80 stats. Complete quests, diaries, then work towards skills you enjoy. Get your construction/POH essentials (ornate pool, jewelry box, etc.) and make the tedious things nonexistent. Do your daily farm/birdhouse runs and stay consistent with them. By the time you're around base 90s (alongside continuing slayer the whole time), you should have at least a few hundred million gp. I personally rebuilt after being hacked with thieving elves from 85-99 and made around 300m. It's slow, but doing it in the right order makes it a hell of a lot simpler and less tedious.
Great guide! One thing I did different was train Ranged to 99 with a venator bow and amethyst arrows at nightmare zone vs chinning. The grand master quests are hard, I still don't have monkey madness 2 or desert treasure 2 done yet, and a venator bow and amethyst arrows can get it done quickly at nightmare zone.
me : my bank value is now 100M, i feel like i'm on a good path this video : making your FIRST billion! W..wait..First...? 10X my current bank.. and people do that MULTIPLE times over?
I’ve played for less than a year and have a 6b account, all legit. Raced into raids and have seen 7 shadow. 5 splits, 2 solos. 1 tbow trio split. Some nex drops as well. You can make bills but you need to pick the right content. You won’t make that at bandos.
@@justincomfort7695 this is incredibly spooned though, iv done hundreds of raids from tob, toa, to cox and never seen a mega besides an elder, my bank is 3b which iv obtained over the years. you are in the .1% of luck
@@justincomfort7695 Getting all that in less than a year is extreme spooning and probably a lot of constant playing. If your account is less than a year old, what are your hours played in that time?
Sometimes game knowledge > the money you have. For example, I played the recent deadman mode and had the knowledge to do knights sword + elemental workship1+2 to get a head start on smithing, and made steel bars (for cannonballs) and bolts for pvmers/pkers without ever even leaving the safe zone. I swapped it over while demanding other people risked the trade first so I never got scammed and ended up making ~460m in 4-5 days. 10 years ago I would have never been capable of taking advantage of that, but experience means the rich get richer y'know?
honestly the best advice i would give is to go for a bowfa rebuild ASAP, assuming you can keep bare essential gear in other styles - players will get to a 1b bank waaaaaay faster that way and have more fun bc bowfa is great to use
just to be clear - you suggest using the blood moon armour to train or is it just the weapon with melee gear like the video demonstrated? If the former - considering the cost of repairing blood moon is it worth doing that?
great video as always! only a few things I personally would change. I think corrupting the bowfa is overrated; charges last longer than you think and aren't that hard to replenish. I also would advise against the avernic and sang staff at the end unless you *really* want to go hard at tob where those are the most useful. a general "choose the gear for the content you enjoy doing" would go a long way there. if you're doing cox, then the dhcb/dhl are good, toa doesn't really need anything special and the sang staff is never worth it, and nex would really benefit from saving up for an acb and fortified masori, probably by ditching some other gear.
The fact I’m at the end point of this video minus the avernic hilt and nightmare staff, but with max house and 90 range banked as well as 60m cash, was very satisfying. That said, a video on late game gear progression would be useful. At this stage, gear upgrades are so expensive and so niche to specific content that it can be difficult to decide.
@@KingK3TCHUP I wish. My bank is only around 500m in terms of cash. I bought the prayers years ago when they were still 10m and 40m each. I bought my fang for 55m. I've sunk many mils into prayer, construction, crafting and herblore. I'm at a tough spot where any upgrades for small bonuses cost hundreds of mil. So it's an option between selling many pieces of good lower tier gear that I use at all content, vs. specialising into a specific niche and being hard stuck to a small amount of content.
As always, super awesome and helpful video for those who need some positive reinforcement and positive direction instead of being silly with their GP. Careless spending could make that 1B, go POOF!! 👍🏽🍀
I STONGLY suggest a dragon hunter lance over a fang and a sang staff. Chambers is probably one of the easiest raids to get into with a group and it's easier to find a group for it than learning toa solo is even at entry level. It also gives you a good weapon for slayer tasks like wyverns and all dragon tasks. And allows you to camp vorkath if you buy a bgs instead of a dragon warhammer. Effectively doing one of the better gp/hr methods for rebuilds. I'd skip the avernic upgrade an opt for a dfs. Saving the rest of the gp till I've made it back from vorkath, and then buying it.
Quit while youre ahead flipping is not the intended way of playing they added tax for a reason dont be like this guy he just flips and prays for a margin 0 skill all luck thinks his trader steve is anything like ironman but he just again prays for a margin thats not an mmo thats being a scummy venture capitalist dick be a gamer dont be a mercher
My first billion, or at least 500m of it went straight into skills. Upgrading gear is great but your skills are forever and open up quests and money makers.
I'll never understand how the fang tanked as hard as it did after the nerf. I mean, I expected the price to substantially decrease, but not THAT much considering how useful it still is on the stab style.
Power leveling = afk nightmare zone, I did all 5 to 95. Diaries items like the ring is a Nice bonus early game (run energy + prayer bonus (+1 but better than 0))
Tbh I dould just stick with the basics for all 3 styles (fang, blowpipe, toxic trident and zenytes) and specialize in 1 moneymaker. Get masori + ZCB for Nex for example or Sang, BoS and dragon claws if you want to ToB, BoFa for CoX and ToA etc. Now you have a little bit for everything but nothing second bis for something specific.
Bro thx so much for the tips 🙏 i really love it and found this super helpful im in mid level entering to the high level dont have much moneys but sure this help me out big time thx bro
You know, right away I'm not too happy with your recommendations. First of all, I don't know how important rune armour is, or armour in general unless you're doing long tanking like slayer or killing bosses. Most quests can be done with no armour on at all, which will also make you lighter meaning you'll have to spend less on stamina potions. If I only had a mill, I would consider buying energy potions instead of stamina to be honest (although you will definitely need a few stamina, no doubt. , or just train my agility to ~40-50-60ish and wear whatever graceful I managed to get + boots of lightness from the temple of ikov quest. As for using the bones on the chaos altar... yes. But if people really need this guide and are ~1m or less net worth, maybe indicate the risks of doing this. If it's a new account like that I would suggest instead questing until you unlock the ecto-prayer training in morytania since you will need the tokens for the bone crusher in the future anyway. Yes, the chaos altar is way faster/cheaper... but honestly if you're super nooby you should probably just stay out of the wilderness all together. Saying range/magic isn't worth it is also ???. I would tell them to do the dorg quest line and unlock the bone crossbow. It is incrdible and the ability to safe spot early in an account is powerful. As far as magic goes I would recommend to just have an air staff + 2k mind runes and you can just air strike safespot as well. Each cast is so cheap... Arguably you want to mage EVERYTHING early on a new account until you unlock all the important teleports (~teleport to kourend). Unlock high alch, snare, and other important spells. The staff of iban can also be purchased relatively early into an account and it's fairly cheap per cast. IMO melee is the worst thing you can base an early account off. I agree with most of the mid-priced stuff you said, but I think the crystal armour/bofa should be an ASAP over almost anything else. You can basically kill any boss with it and the ammo is infinite once corrupted. This should be bought within the first 400m imo. Strongly disagree with the sang staff as well. It has 1 max hit over the trident of the swamp and it costs more per cast to use. (Although with all the bots banned and the price of scales going up im not sure if that's true...) You should not be spending 80m on a tiny upgrade, the toxic trident is good enough until you get the BIS shadow. Also, lightbearer should be one of the first things you buy as well. The DDS is an incredible spec weapon for pennies and coupled with the lightbearer it gives you tons of DPS. It also works on SKILLING specs like the d axe, d pick, or d harpoon. ...I feel like this might just confuse new players who may have specific goals, or things they want to do vs not want to do. Telling them to buy an early fang is frankly stupid if they have no intention of bossing. Most new players hear 'fang good!' and use it during slayer when a d-skim would literally be higher dps. Sorry for the rant, I usually love your videos but this one is kinda ehhhhhh..... Maybe I should just make my own damn guide.
Instead of chinning your range, it's much better to just buy a venator bow. It's not as fast as chins, but it's like 200k xp/h while slaying for a lot of tasks and super afk. You can even do 20 min true afk (as in literally leave your computer for 20 mins and come back) at nmz for very good xp/h as well, just use msb or msb (i) until 80.
Buy everything you need for quests everything else is just a bonus to speed up questing and leveling. Pvm isn't that good until you get to bossing and raids which is around 90 base combat stats. Unless you do low level rev caves and zombie pirates.
Maybe subtract 15-25m for non-combat skilling methods to get SotE like 70 herblore, 70 farming, 70 crafting, 70 smithing. Youll sell back a good amount of that in finished products but all said an account capable of running BowFa is probably 20m in skills alone, let alone if you use fastest available in all methods.
How would you use 15mil for these?? farming is pretty much free, you make profit leveling crafting and you make profit leveling smithing. If you train herblore using potions it'll probably cost you a few mill but you can always just clean herbs to make profit and still level pretty quickly, I leveled herblore to like 85 just by cleaning herbs
@@Prushka If you use fastest available methods and sell back nothing the stats would cost you like 10m+ Obviously selling back products or using slower methods is cheaper.
@@Beowulfgang_Amadeus Well yeah that would be dumb, there is no reason to use the expensive fastest methods when you are poor, maybe use those if you train up a second account or something
I really feel like in early game, with the time it takes to make the money in no way makes sense to buy stamina's. You're going to waste so much of that time you spent making the gp, to save a comparatively minimal amount of time with staminas. I'd much rather see that cash used on upgrading skills/gear.
Pro tip, DO NOT BUY BESERKER RING. Brimstone ring is literally beserker ring and archer ring wrapped into one and it’s a little under 4m. What’s the catch you ask? No catch unless you are going got IMBUE the berserker and archer ring. The stats for those rings double once you imbue them and the brimestone ring cannot be imbued. So until you get the points from NMZ just use a brimstone ring. YOUR WELCOME! :)) ❤❤❤❤❤
Sitting at around 1850 Total Level, I wonder if across all gp spent and in my bank right now if it would equal out to be 1B+ or not. I’am talking every single GP ever spent: Food, Runes, Grinding XP, Ect but disregarding buying something, selling it and rebuying it; only factoring in the highest paid price
@@zlidyh5 Ive got a plugin that tracks all my supplies used, supposedly have used 166m worth. Though im considerably higher total lvl etc. Interesting to see how it adds up. (just noticed it includes things like seeds used for farming etc. That does go toward a good chunk of the costs but a lot of those herb seeds especially were pure profit if they didnt die).
Funnily enough, 1 bil is both "too much" and "not enough". It's too much to just invest in good gear, skills and supplies, because you reach a good level of progression at around 500-600 mil bank value, with great geear in all combat styles and with high level in usefull skills, but it's not enough to get all the best items in the game. For example ancestral robes alone cost ~340mil, masori is ~90-190mil, Torva is over 900mil. The huge gap in gear prices between "good" and "best" is pretty ridiculous.
Which is why I'm surprised he didn't suggest to maybe sell two styles of gear when you hit a bill to simply get max of one, and use that max gear on a specific boss/money maker to build back up the sold styles. Example, sell bank and buy a zaryte crossbow+full masori+pegs+anguish -> camp nex mass. I think this guide is just seriously lacking in overall usefulness.
That's not really a point of the video tho. It's literally just how far 1 bill will get you. Not a "You should buy these". I am just stating that 1bill is between late game and best in slot.
@@doremiancleff1508 There is no point to the video. It's not giving you any strategies just popping up random good items. Might as well rename it to "Best items for cost" Instead of "how to spend your first 1b"
I find it’s not a skill issue for most people, but just overwhelming info dump and new mechanics. The difference between your first month going from 0-1m will take weeks if not months. But after (gross I know ) a decade I still find myself 6/10 capable of learning new things easily. Vorkath was hard for me and wildy bosses with almost maxed combat. Call me a newb but I’m the average dad casual gamer. With an account I’ve quested and built I think I can make 1m in a day now. Maybe even a few mil with some lucky drops and good gear. But seeing these week long 0-1b videos it’s all just pking. Those guys have a 1-2 decades of pk experience and still lose a lot, they just show the wins in highlights. I think your first bil should take you 1-2 years and that’s at nerd rates after work 3-4 hrs a day focus grinding.
It's easy for players who have played for years to take for granted the insane amount of knowledge you need to play this game remotely efficiently. You're absolutely correct. Only way to get better is watch guides/youtube/read wiki and dive into it. Mistakes will always happen but that's why Runescape is so good at teaching life lessons.
@@sylvariatzaka yea im 120 days playing time on my main, 54 on my iron, and i feel like i just cracked the top level of the iceberg that is this game, you look at guys like settled, 10/10 mastery of the game and still learning. i think thats what makes this game so incredible is the time you can spend in and then 3x it because thats what i spend wondering, researching, watching and learning more about the game. been playing since 8 and im almost 28 now lol
@@joshraczka8006 Man even the players who have played since 2007 still have to look at the wiki quite often. There's just so much to know. Keep truckin' along mate.
I'm getting to the point on my account progression where I I'm willing to take suggestions or help. I have 900m - 1B Bank value 1550 total level And the icing on this cake... Level 18 combat level. I've almost reached my goals for this account and want to turn it into a main account but with some fun ways to play. If you want details or have suggestions let me know.
clicks video thinking its useful since I just got me first video.. also me: knowing damn well I wont sell my 600k caviar collection while still using ahrims and a non upgraded swamp staff
oh whoops I misread the title...thought it said "how to earn your first 1 billion GP"... I'm going to head back to my tax bracket of videos and watch Theoatrix 1-99 guides...
Watching this Video the price of bond right now sit 14m os meh even you are have bond and become member maintaining bond as possible while you are progressing is hard unless you are botting or PvM pro
The one that lets you download runescape. If ur just gonna buy it what's the point of playing at all? Just buy a maxed account and look at it at that point. Not about what you have but the accomplishment of getting there bro.
Like what? I haven't been playing osrs in a while so idk whats going on, but could be better items getting added -> less demand for older gear or that gear not being needed in new content

Best investment in osrs to have max house. Along with 99 farming imo
The PoH is such a massive time/resource sink that to prioritize it so early would burn a *lot* of people out before they can really sink their teeth into the mid-late game so it's honestly not worth prioritizing so early unless you know you're already hopelessly addicted to the game
Most helpful line in the video was "and that's all your money gone". You'll always be working towards gear until 8-10b gp. Always enjoy the journey
I personally think this is really good game design. OSRS is all about long term goals, having such a meaty gp goal actually gives you a reason to grind bosses in the late game. Personally I always have a policy of never selling expensive items. I just grind out gp till I have enough for an item I want.
Like there has literally only been twice that I even sold my bank for an item. Once was the ZCB where I sold like half my bank, the other was the elysian spirit shield soon after where I sold the other half. I am glad I did because it unlocked way better money makers, but I feel once you have god bis items like that and have content to grind, there is no sense in selling stuff for gear.
Like for instance I have no qualms over not having the tbow for another year. It will probably be the last mega rare that I get because I will be getting the cheaper ones first. I mean heck I have honestly kinda transitioned away from grinding gp in the first place, I am actually more focused on hiscores than anything right now. Due to that hiscore chasing I end up with 10s of thousands of kills at bosses, doing so leads to a crap ton of money just piling up. It is nice to have items to work towards so I can feel like I am filling an additional exp bar. Because some of these grinds will end with me having over 10b in gold, which will mean I will have nothing to spend it on after a while. I don't look forward to that day.
Whenever I reach the point in which I have pretty much all the gear I will probably fully transition to spending my gp on collecting items. I already have upwards of a hundred things I am collecting, but at that point I will probably actually start buying bulk stuff from other collectors. But something about that is just less engaging than working towards a new piece of gear I have never gotten to use. So legit, enjoy the journey.
Tip for early game is use other people's POH's to use teles, helps so much
Yeaaaaaaaahhh idk wtf this guy on
@@Turnpost2552 who me? Lol did I miss something
Me spending millions on super restores, prayer pots, brews, combats, and food just to lose to the same boss over and over again
People should definitely get rigour before anguish, its way more stronger of an upgrade even at mid levels
Anguish can be resold if you find yourself desperately in need of the GP for something else (or if you just want extra gp to flip with)
Need more TRADER STEVE
small tip: dont buy tassets if you have an fire cape, cause it doesn't give you an additional max hit. You better off spending that 20m elsewhere
To have a late game stab that you can buy for that cheap the gang is a must. Whip/fang and you are pretty set until 90+ melee. It’s actually insane it should be 100m
Still have no idea why they didn't make it as rare as masori, although everything from toa is in the dumpster rn...
They should probably change the droprste cause its ridiculous at this point
Hey, I've been watching your videos since 2018. You are my favorite osrs creator period. Just wanted to share
Amulets of glory is a great purchase, they go for more uncharged than with charges. Free teleports and good stats.
Instead of stamina, use energy potions you make yourself, very cheap and trains the acc.
Great point! Making energy pots is a great early herb training method (and not terribly expensive) and you can use them for questing instead of overpriced stams. Stams are necessary when inventory space is at a premium, which is not usually the case with most of the early and mid-game quests.
@@littlereesie i made 200 first then another 600 at some point. I started 1.5 months ago. I just carry like 2-3 always, i got a lot of levels making them from scratch, sold a few for profit.
2 energy pots is enough for a tree run and a birdhouse run
ive returned after a few years off and have been doing the optimal quest guide and just doing small money makers inbetween quests and i feel like this is the right way to play the game
Hey man....hope you're doing well.
I really like the "economic analysis" part of your content. Why something is going up in price or down...
i wish the RUclips algorithm felt the same way. Great content. Much love.
386m left, perfect time to buy a Zaryte Crossbow and go sit at nex 😅
Don’t crossbow camp(rag) Nex.
Actually smart. Good luck! There are ways to optimize your damage in masses. Always look to improve
@@kanebear12 Why not? I did and made bank doing just that.
@@kanebear12bolt rag nex is okay in masses. Anyone with a rune c bow can turn their life around
He didn’t buy Ahrim’s at all, why?
As someone who recently started playing again on a new account I highly recommend going to W330 and using other people's houses... it makes getting around the game so easy and you don't even have to worry about having the magic level to use the teleports (some are locked behind quests). You can also refresh all of your stats in the ornate pool and house teleports only cost about 500 gp so alongside stamina's you're all set. You can even use the fairy ring and tree spirit from other people's houses.
The other thing I highly recommend is getting full obsidian with berserker necklace once you hit base 60s melee... it is the best armour set you can use until 93 hp where dharok starts to beat it and it's only about 6.5m with the obsidian weapon. Other than that great video as always! Loved your content for a long time and getting back to OSRS you're always my go to :).
Max POH (or near it) is an absolute game changer. It will absolutely allow you to play and accomplish more than saving it for later. Quality of life goes a very long way even if it’s not strictly financially efficient.
If you don't have alot of money. Don't barrage. Ice burst instead. yes it's slower but alot cheaper. If you really want to save money burst at temple spiders and pick up stackables. alot slower xp but almost free xp with the looted stuff.
For early magic levels, the arceuus library is a really good training method. I went 30->55 on my iron before kourend favor was removed and the xp rates were increased nearly 50%, and it was already a good method then. If you start training from level 30 or so, you can hit 51 in an hour or two - the only expensive part would be if you buy stamina potions if you want to speed things up even further. I'm not sure what the next best xprates are at those levels but you can get 50k-75k xp/hr at level 34 with suboptimal efficiency (depending on stamina)
In that first melee setup with rune i would toss in a mixed hide cape. and that last set up i would use barrows gloves in the ranged setup maybe even the vorkath backpack. i also dont really feel like the malediction ward is worth it cuz its not used. Avernic is like the last pvm item you should buy, like after torva and all 3 mega rares. with that extra money id buy a spec weapon. voidwaker maybe.
just a notable mention i would always refer to, rather than a berserker ring and imbuing it... why not go for the brimstone ring... it has the same stats of all the dagannoth rings in their unimbued state, so it can be used for magic range or mage, and only costs 3m
The other rings don't really matter though. The archer's ring is just ranged accuracy, and the seers ring is just mage accuracy. The berserker ring is the only one that matters, as it gives strength *bonus,* and will be the only ring that actually increases your max hits, which is miles more important than accuracy in a lot of cases.
My tip is, dont buy ranged and mage, train that alongside slayer
This was a cool vid idea. I actually found it helpful because even after so much time into rs I always find myself wondering wtf im gonna buy off the ge lol.
Cool video! Great advice! I would recommend getting 94 mage at 100m and not worrying at any point about getting 99. Range also is going to train itself fairly quickly I would leave it at 90-94 and let my pvm get the rest
As someone who works 22 days out of the month. This guys guides help me so much lol
You should make a guide on how to make your first billion GP and do a progression like this.
For most quests for players with not much money I'd recommend normal energy potions instead of staminas. They're way cheaper, and for most quests you won't be using the full 2 minutes of running from each dose so you'd be sometimes be wasting a partial dose here and there.
Genuinely don't even worry about money until you've finished almost all the quests and have roughly base 80 stats. Complete quests, diaries, then work towards skills you enjoy. Get your construction/POH essentials (ornate pool, jewelry box, etc.) and make the tedious things nonexistent. Do your daily farm/birdhouse runs and stay consistent with them. By the time you're around base 90s (alongside continuing slayer the whole time), you should have at least a few hundred million gp. I personally rebuilt after being hacked with thieving elves from 85-99 and made around 300m. It's slow, but doing it in the right order makes it a hell of a lot simpler and less tedious.
Great guide! One thing I did different was train Ranged to 99 with a venator bow and amethyst arrows at nightmare zone vs chinning. The grand master quests are hard, I still don't have monkey madness 2 or desert treasure 2 done yet, and a venator bow and amethyst arrows can get it done quickly at nightmare zone.
Just cashed in 2 synapse drops. Thanks for the timely vid, homie.
One amongst the Fence!
me : my bank value is now 100M, i feel like i'm on a good path
this video : making your FIRST billion!
W..wait..First...? 10X my current bank.. and people do that MULTIPLE times over?
People play for years man. Lots of people have 5 plus year accounts.
I’ve played for less than a year and have a 6b account, all legit. Raced into raids and have seen 7 shadow. 5 splits, 2 solos. 1 tbow trio split. Some nex drops as well. You can make bills but you need to pick the right content. You won’t make that at bandos.
@@justincomfort7695 this is incredibly spooned though, iv done hundreds of raids from tob, toa, to cox and never seen a mega besides an elder, my bank is 3b which iv obtained over the years. you are in the .1% of luck
@@justincomfort7695 Getting all that in less than a year is extreme spooning and probably a lot of constant playing. If your account is less than a year old, what are your hours played in that time?
Sometimes game knowledge > the money you have.
For example, I played the recent deadman mode and had the knowledge to do knights sword + elemental workship1+2 to get a head start on smithing, and made steel bars (for cannonballs) and bolts for pvmers/pkers without ever even leaving the safe zone. I swapped it over while demanding other people risked the trade first so I never got scammed and ended up making ~460m in 4-5 days.
10 years ago I would have never been capable of taking advantage of that, but experience means the rich get richer y'know?
honestly the best advice i would give is to go for a bowfa rebuild ASAP, assuming you can keep bare essential gear in other styles - players will get to a 1b bank waaaaaay faster that way and have more fun bc bowfa is great to use
just to be clear - you suggest using the blood moon armour to train or is it just the weapon with melee gear like the video demonstrated?
If the former - considering the cost of repairing blood moon is it worth doing that?
Its better with the full set as you get the set effect. Its still a really good training method though with just the weapon!
great video as always! only a few things I personally would change. I think corrupting the bowfa is overrated; charges last longer than you think and aren't that hard to replenish. I also would advise against the avernic and sang staff at the end unless you *really* want to go hard at tob where those are the most useful. a general "choose the gear for the content you enjoy doing" would go a long way there. if you're doing cox, then the dhcb/dhl are good, toa doesn't really need anything special and the sang staff is never worth it, and nex would really benefit from saving up for an acb and fortified masori, probably by ditching some other gear.
The fact I’m at the end point of this video minus the avernic hilt and nightmare staff, but with max house and 90 range banked as well as 60m cash, was very satisfying.
That said, a video on late game gear progression would be useful. At this stage, gear upgrades are so expensive and so niche to specific content that it can be difficult to decide.
I assume the next step is a tbow rebuild.
@@KingK3TCHUP I wish. My bank is only around 500m in terms of cash. I bought the prayers years ago when they were still 10m and 40m each. I bought my fang for 55m. I've sunk many mils into prayer, construction, crafting and herblore.
I'm at a tough spot where any upgrades for small bonuses cost hundreds of mil. So it's an option between selling many pieces of good lower tier gear that I use at all content, vs. specialising into a specific niche and being hard stuck to a small amount of content.
Maxed house was a unreal upgrade to gaming
Quick tip- to save a bunch of gp use summer pies or energy pots instead of stamina pots!
As always, super awesome and helpful video for those who need some positive reinforcement and positive direction instead of being silly with their GP.
Careless spending could make that 1B, go POOF!! 👍🏽🍀
Further note if you have enough for a Masori/zcb set up sell everything for nex and sit at nex till you make that 1b back it won’t be long
Thank you so much for these videos. It truly helps me out as a player returning from 11 year hiatus
I STONGLY suggest a dragon hunter lance over a fang and a sang staff. Chambers is probably one of the easiest raids to get into with a group and it's easier to find a group for it than learning toa solo is even at entry level. It also gives you a good weapon for slayer tasks like wyverns and all dragon tasks. And allows you to camp vorkath if you buy a bgs instead of a dragon warhammer. Effectively doing one of the better gp/hr methods for rebuilds. I'd skip the avernic upgrade an opt for a dfs. Saving the rest of the gp till I've made it back from vorkath, and then buying it.
I just bought 1 billion the other night when I was drunk so ty this is a great vid!!
where lol
@@vciqlegitimately through OSRS bonds of course, bro was drunk
Honestly, use energy potions instead of stamina. Unless you need the inventory slots, they are a really cheap alternative
Would highly recommend buying the brimstone ring as the first ring purchase imo.
I already have most of my next buys planned but I gotta watch this since your content is awesome
Quit while youre ahead flipping is not the intended way of playing they added tax for a reason dont be like this guy he just flips and prays for a margin 0 skill all luck thinks his trader steve is anything like ironman but he just again prays for a margin thats not an mmo thats being a scummy venture capitalist dick be a gamer dont be a mercher
Those key caps look so good sheesh I can't wait...
My first billion, or at least 500m of it went straight into skills. Upgrading gear is great but your skills are forever and open up quests and money makers.
Just hit 1b bank value. Already 99 hp, prayer, magic, range, 84 construction. Doing zulrah hunting for pet but it’s made me 375m so far.
Small thing but that rune full helm sticks out In the early steps, berserker helm is a very cheap option after Fremmy trials
I'll never understand how the fang tanked as hard as it did after the nerf. I mean, I expected the price to substantially decrease, but not THAT much considering how useful it still is on the stab style.
Power leveling = afk nightmare zone, I did all 5 to 95.
Diaries items like the ring is a Nice bonus early game (run energy + prayer bonus (+1 but better than 0))
Tbh I dould just stick with the basics for all 3 styles (fang, blowpipe, toxic trident and zenytes) and specialize in 1 moneymaker. Get masori + ZCB for Nex for example or Sang, BoS and dragon claws if you want to ToB, BoFa for CoX and ToA etc.
Now you have a little bit for everything but nothing second bis for something specific.
Almost at 5000 hours on the iron and only at 900m bank value lol
Bro thx so much for the tips 🙏 i really love it and found this super helpful im in mid level entering to the high level dont have much moneys but sure this help me out big time thx bro
before watching this, i spent most of my bank when i was staking, i got 99 con, herblore, farming, crafting, all the more expensive ones.
Great start
Investing in skills is always good mate. Work towards the max cape very slowly but surely. It's OP OP OP game changer.
Is it more beneficial as a main account to sell off your skilling tab for gear upgrades, and buy skills as needed?
You know, right away I'm not too happy with your recommendations.
First of all, I don't know how important rune armour is, or armour in general unless you're doing long tanking like slayer or killing bosses.
Most quests can be done with no armour on at all, which will also make you lighter meaning you'll have to spend less on stamina potions.
If I only had a mill, I would consider buying energy potions instead of stamina to be honest (although you will definitely need a few stamina, no doubt. , or just train my agility to ~40-50-60ish and wear whatever graceful I managed to get + boots of lightness from the temple of ikov quest.
As for using the bones on the chaos altar... yes. But if people really need this guide and are ~1m or less net worth, maybe indicate the risks of doing this. If it's a new account like that I would suggest instead questing until you unlock the ecto-prayer training in morytania since you will need the tokens for the bone crusher in the future anyway. Yes, the chaos altar is way faster/cheaper... but honestly if you're super nooby you should probably just stay out of the wilderness all together.
Saying range/magic isn't worth it is also ???. I would tell them to do the dorg quest line and unlock the bone crossbow. It is incrdible and the ability to safe spot early in an account is powerful. As far as magic goes I would recommend to just have an air staff + 2k mind runes and you can just air strike safespot as well. Each cast is so cheap... Arguably you want to mage EVERYTHING early on a new account until you unlock all the important teleports (~teleport to kourend). Unlock high alch, snare, and other important spells. The staff of iban can also be purchased relatively early into an account and it's fairly cheap per cast. IMO melee is the worst thing you can base an early account off.
I agree with most of the mid-priced stuff you said, but I think the crystal armour/bofa should be an ASAP over almost anything else. You can basically kill any boss with it and the ammo is infinite once corrupted. This should be bought within the first 400m imo.
Strongly disagree with the sang staff as well. It has 1 max hit over the trident of the swamp and it costs more per cast to use. (Although with all the bots banned and the price of scales going up im not sure if that's true...) You should not be spending 80m on a tiny upgrade, the toxic trident is good enough until you get the BIS shadow.
Also, lightbearer should be one of the first things you buy as well. The DDS is an incredible spec weapon for pennies and coupled with the lightbearer it gives you tons of DPS. It also works on SKILLING specs like the d axe, d pick, or d harpoon.
...I feel like this might just confuse new players who may have specific goals, or things they want to do vs not want to do. Telling them to buy an early fang is frankly stupid if they have no intention of bossing. Most new players hear 'fang good!' and use it during slayer when a d-skim would literally be higher dps.
Sorry for the rant, I usually love your videos but this one is kinda ehhhhhh.....
Maybe I should just make my own damn guide.
You're wrong about sang, the passive healing effect is huge at cox
@@vVendetta_x "You're wrong because it's good in these very niche scenarios..."
@@sylvariatzaka cox is the best raid still to this day 😂
@@vVendetta_x Yes, because players who have a tiny bank and need youtube guide are grinding cox.
This is why you shouldn't make guides.
@sylvariatzaka once you have around 300m and zenytes you could easily grind cox, it's also the raid with the cheapest start point for gear
first rune set should be a god trimmed for extra prayer
Instead of chinning your range, it's much better to just buy a venator bow. It's not as fast as chins, but it's like 200k xp/h while slaying for a lot of tasks and super afk. You can even do 20 min true afk (as in literally leave your computer for 20 mins and come back) at nmz for very good xp/h as well, just use msb or msb (i) until 80.
as a poor person, I made money f2p with alch, im 94 now, and made about 60m in the process, I do not recommend.
I’ve done 250m drop parties twice each thinking I was quitting for good. I’m back up to almost 200m now. I’m not giving shit away anymore
Buy everything you need for quests everything else is just a bonus to speed up questing and leveling. Pvm isn't that good until you get to bossing and raids which is around 90 base combat stats. Unless you do low level rev caves and zombie pirates.
It took me about a mth to amass 50m… Don’t think I’ll play this long enough to see my first 1b….
I recommend giving me all of the first 1 billion dollars. Thanks!
Maybe subtract 15-25m for non-combat skilling methods to get SotE like 70 herblore, 70 farming, 70 crafting, 70 smithing. Youll sell back a good amount of that in finished products but all said an account capable of running BowFa is probably 20m in skills alone, let alone if you use fastest available in all methods.
How would you use 15mil for these?? farming is pretty much free, you make profit leveling crafting and you make profit leveling smithing. If you train herblore using potions it'll probably cost you a few mill but you can always just clean herbs to make profit and still level pretty quickly, I leveled herblore to like 85 just by cleaning herbs
@@Prushka If you use fastest available methods and sell back nothing the stats would cost you like 10m+
Obviously selling back products or using slower methods is cheaper.
@@Beowulfgang_Amadeus Well yeah that would be dumb, there is no reason to use the expensive fastest methods when you are poor, maybe use those if you train up a second account or something
My bank is worth 1b. I dont want to sell any items. I probably make 2-5m day
How do I spend my next 1b
I really feel like in early game, with the time it takes to make the money in no way makes sense to buy stamina's. You're going to waste so much of that time you spent making the gp, to save a comparatively minimal amount of time with staminas. I'd much rather see that cash used on upgrading skills/gear.
I’m in the spot in the late game where I’m 2100+ total, bank is 1.8b and I have a 300m cash stack. Upgrades at this point are so expensive, it’s rough
Pro tip, DO NOT BUY BESERKER RING. Brimstone ring is literally beserker ring and archer ring wrapped into one and it’s a little under 4m.
What’s the catch you ask? No catch unless you are going got IMBUE the berserker and archer ring. The stats for those rings double once you imbue them and the brimestone ring cannot be imbued. So until you get the points from NMZ just use a brimstone ring. YOUR WELCOME! :)) ❤❤❤❤❤
Sitting at around 1850 Total Level, I wonder if across all gp spent and in my bank right now if it would equal out to be 1B+ or not. I’am talking every single GP ever spent: Food, Runes, Grinding XP, Ect but disregarding buying something, selling it and rebuying it; only factoring in the highest paid price
you likely haven’t even spent 5m on supplies
@@zlidyh5 Ive got a plugin that tracks all my supplies used, supposedly have used 166m worth. Though im considerably higher total lvl etc. Interesting to see how it adds up.
(just noticed it includes things like seeds used for farming etc. That does go toward a good chunk of the costs but a lot of those herb seeds especially were pure profit if they didnt die).
dont recommend corrupting bowfa , unless you plan on keeping it forever but i dont think thats the case
damn, so glad i bought all my zenyte when they were 12 mil a pop lol 20 each is crazy
Funnily enough, 1 bil is both "too much" and "not enough". It's too much to just invest in good gear, skills and supplies, because you reach a good level of progression at around 500-600 mil bank value, with great geear in all combat styles and with high level in usefull skills, but it's not enough to get all the best items in the game. For example ancestral robes alone cost ~340mil, masori is ~90-190mil, Torva is over 900mil. The huge gap in gear prices between "good" and "best" is pretty ridiculous.
Which is why I'm surprised he didn't suggest to maybe sell two styles of gear when you hit a bill to simply get max of one, and use that max gear on a specific boss/money maker to build back up the sold styles.
Example, sell bank and buy a zaryte crossbow+full masori+pegs+anguish -> camp nex mass.
I think this guide is just seriously lacking in overall usefulness.
That's not really a point of the video tho. It's literally just how far 1 bill will get you. Not a "You should buy these".
I am just stating that 1bill is between late game and best in slot.
@@doremiancleff1508 There is no point to the video. It's not giving you any strategies just popping up random good items.
Might as well rename it to "Best items for cost" Instead of "how to spend your first 1b"
TraderSteve...I like that name it sounds familiar...can't put my finger on why... xD
I find it’s not a skill issue for most people, but just overwhelming info dump and new mechanics. The difference between your first month going from 0-1m will take weeks if not months. But after (gross I know ) a decade I still find myself 6/10 capable of learning new things easily. Vorkath was hard for me and wildy bosses with almost maxed combat. Call me a newb but I’m the average dad casual gamer. With an account I’ve quested and built I think I can make 1m in a day now. Maybe even a few mil with some lucky drops and good gear. But seeing these week long 0-1b videos it’s all just pking. Those guys have a 1-2 decades of pk experience and still lose a lot, they just show the wins in highlights. I think your first bil should take you 1-2 years and that’s at nerd rates after work 3-4 hrs a day focus grinding.
It's easy for players who have played for years to take for granted the insane amount of knowledge you need to play this game remotely efficiently. You're absolutely correct.
Only way to get better is watch guides/youtube/read wiki and dive into it. Mistakes will always happen but that's why Runescape is so good at teaching life lessons.
@@sylvariatzaka yea im 120 days playing time on my main, 54 on my iron, and i feel like i just cracked the top level of the iceberg that is this game, you look at guys like settled, 10/10 mastery of the game and still learning. i think thats what makes this game so incredible is the time you can spend in and then 3x it because thats what i spend wondering, researching, watching and learning more about the game. been playing since 8 and im almost 28 now lol
