Thinking about getting into the game again but I’m worried I’ll run into the same problem I’ve always had - overwhelmed and unsure what to do. For reference, I’ve got most of my combat skills at 90-100, herblore at like 102, Slayer at around 80, and I have invention unlocked but haven’t leveled it much yet. I’ve killed Nex with a friend a few times and have done some of the GW1 bosses. I think I have ancient curses unlocked. I’ve done a few quests but haven’t gotten to Prif yet. Can someone give me a rough outline of the order I should do things? Should I focus on quests, skilling or PvM type stuff?
I understand that the game is made in a way where you can really do things in whatever order you want, but for me this is overwhelming and I end up just doing random stuff and feeling like I’m not making progress with anything. I appreciate the linear flow of many MMOs but really enjoy RS3 and would like to get back in. Would greatly appreciate any advice!!

I currently own ACBs with As4 and P4E2 I use ancient repriser for shield & I have a off hand glaive for planted feet, sirenic, eof, fleeting, I do not have Grico, only GDazing. I used this set up a lot before I decided to take a break from RS3 a little bit after Croseus released. Came back a few weeks ago and bows finally got some good arrows to work with. Back to my question, should I main the ACB or buy main Nox bow and if so what perk should I use on the bow. I plan to do bosses like Nex, ED1 2 & 3, Raksha, Kerapac and still need to do Zuk for new cape. I’m simply looking for opinions and/or evidence of one being a better option over the other to use against bosses in RS3

Foreward

I am doing this a bit apprehensively. I wanted to get all of my thoughts into a post, because there are a lot of them. I know that not everyone will like some of my thoughts, and that I have made many posts in the past year that have been taken the wrong way, but I hope to at least entertain you with what will likely be a very thorough case of mental gymnastics while also providing context to how I originally left Runescape, what changed, and how I think about Runescape as a whole.

Why I originally Quit Runescape

2012 and 2013 were interesting years for me, but the reality was that I saw (and still see) OSRS as "the wrong direction", mainly because dividing a playerbase is never healthy as it creates friction and friction creates toxicity for a variety of reasons. The good news is that this has mainly become a non-issue, and I consider OSRS's success good because it acts like a filter to keep certain types of players out of Runescape, which seems to have overwhelmingly been positive for the game. You probably have no idea what I'm talking about, so I'll just leave it at that. I'm probably talking out my ass, but to this day, I still have not touched OSRS and never see myself ever touching it.
Around the same time lots of other "group focused content" also started coming out. Nex and KK were pieces of content that set me aback and the introduction of other updates like the Completionist Cape and Squeal of Fortune also kinda started making me feel like Runescape wasn't really "for me anymore", as I predominately played at the time for quests (Note: I did have around 2200 total around this time, which despite bot being maxed still wasn't terrible). Basically to take out of this grouping content and pay to win was making me feel depressed as I had nobody to play with. At around this time I had put around a decade and 3k hours into Runescape, was active in the community (I had around 2k posts on Zybez, and some impact on this reddit) and it had a significant investment in the game. The shift in design choices by Jagex made me feel cheated.

Why I returned to Runescape

Between 2013 and 2021 I really didn't have any interaction with Runescape as a whole. Starting around 2021 I started subscribing to a lot of OSRS content creators and while their content was entertaining and relatable, I still had a very staunch "I will not play OSRS" mentality and still felt like Jagex had betrayed my trust with MTX. I was however interested despite doing zero research on how RS3 had progressed. In April 2022, on a whim, having nothing going on with my life and without asking for help, I decided to pay for 2 months of membership and take a gamble.

The First Two Months

During the first two months I had more than enough time to

Legacy of Zamorak Release

... And then a I switched to Ranged and shortly after maxed.

Many people have expressed their dislike for the new prayers, and it's understandable why most are not fond of them. A potential solution could be to introduce curse prayers, along with some upgrades. Here are some reasons why curses might be a better option:
Relevance to recent bosses: The latest additions to OSRS, Nex and the Muspah, both utilize curse prayers. It would be logical to make these available to players as well.
Higher prayer level for improved DPS: If curse prayers are implemented, players would need a level 95 prayer for Turmoil. Following the RS3 model, there would also be magic and ranged equivalents, meaning that a higher prayer level would result in better DPS.
Additional prayer options: Introducing curses doesn't necessarily mean excluding new prayers like Gambit and Metabolise; there's still room to incorporate them.
Modified Soul Split: While nerfing Soul Split significantly is a good idea, there are ways to enhance it using boss drops. In RS3, the Amulet of Souls boosts the healing received from Soul Split. This could be a degradable amulet, similar to the Blood Fury. Additionally, the Eldritch Crossbow has a special attack that converts Soul Split's healing into damage, which could be an enjoyable mechanic for both pvp and pvm.

Core Game-play Loop

Study at Libraries. Obtain notes to use at a desk to create item manuals. Solve the secrets of the past. 

Increasing your Knowledge level allows you to unlock Quality Of Life, QOL, items and unlock secret locations!
To get started, you’ll need to make your way to a library. Luckily, we have loads of those in-game already!
Next, simply click on a bookshelf. You will receive notes and exp. Take the notes to a desk to create pages. With enough pages, you fill manuals that unlock unique QOL items! (example items: rs3 quiver that holds multiple ammunition, tool bag that holds all tools for a future multi skilling raid, etc)
Once you’ve obtained the level required, begins the community driven skill, solve the secret! Question mark icons will appear on the world map when you reach the level required. At the location, objects will be altered and or intractable. When the secret is solved, a new QOL area will be unlocked!
An example to help explain. At level 90 knowledge, a secret icon (a yellow question mark) will show in the God War's Dungeon. The solution for the secret is to use each hilt with their corresponding altar. BOOM! Phosani's Nex or GWD2 area is unlocked!
Content
So, what can you do with knowledge?
Create anything you can dream of!
Creating/Obtaining QOL items will be the bread and butter of the skill. Current suggestions include:

Scroll of Ration - infuse 3 fish in a scroll to be a one time use out of combat Tool Bag - an osrs item that will be similar to the RS3 tool belt. Will be useful with a multi skill required content Elven Mood Ring - a ring that stores 3 rings which will auto equip a ring based off your highest offensive stat. (drops from lvl 80 secret Iowerth dungeon boss) Hades' Footwear - an item that'll combine the three boots from Cerberus into one 

Lastly, Solving the Secret – community driven challenge we all can participate in! every 10 (or 5) levels of Knowledge, you will see a yellow question mark on the world map. Go there and discover objects out of place and new objects to interact with. Use a torch on the 4 newly placed candles and a secret area is unlocked filled with a QOL buff! Secret area on Fossil Island could bring 2 new birdhouse locations, GWD secret area could bring in Phosani version of Nex, etc.
Reward Space
The intrinsic motivation for training this skill – getting access to a plethora of Quality of Life buffs! At 99 knowledge, solve the secret of the banks and you gain access to a bank Preset! With one click, it will load an exact inventory and equipment setup in one tick!
Summary
Knowledge is a support skill which lets players unlock massive QOL buffs for their account. Also, it provides a wealth of opportunities for jagex to generate a huge variety of content without feeling a randomness element.
Most importantly, knowledge will not change the game drastically. But it will let Jagex enhance the experience the world of Gielinor beyond what you’ve ever imagined,
Knowledge represents a huge opportunity for Jagex to bring new types of content to the skill at a later date – the potential is endless!
About Author: I am a RS3 and an OSRS maxed player. I have taken the positives of some rs3 elements and merged it into one osrs skill.
The pro's being: Basic training style of Divination and Archeology Resource Dungeon unlocks at certain Dungeoneering level reward RS3 exclusive QOL features Crack the Clue but altered
That is all and thank you for reading.

Never played this game, but I’m interested in possibly trying it out. I’m a very PVM focused player, on the better side of pvmers in rs3 (6:51 vorago trio PR, 7:25 duo, 500% solo Zamorak in ranged, 2000% arch glacor, ~1:30 nex solo, 2:30 raksha). If you don’t play rs, most of those things are good, but nowhere near the pinnacle of what you can achieve. I’m saying that, it speaks a lot more to the skill ceiling of the game than it does anything else - I’m probably in the top 1% of all players regarding PVM, and still have tons to improve on. I really enjoy how much consistent room to improve there is at basically all times, is that something I’d find similar in this game? I’m hoping to hear from other people that experienced high level rs3 pvm that have done similarly in this game, and understand what their experience switching was like.

Hello,
In 2016/2017, I got a max cape until invention came out. I got 90 invention and then stopped as I got bored. I'm coming back into RS3 with no money and hoping to get max cape again and high end bossing.
I read up on couple of big changes such as Archeology being introduced, Telos/Zammy/Nex (2.0?), and level cap changes to some skills?
1) Is Archeology AFK or require lot of money to level?
2) What are the best solo bosses for GP/HR? I use to do a ton of Araxxi back in the day (600+ kills), but that's an outdated boss. Zammy looks particularly fun to kill once I get the right gear.
3) Other than 120 herblore, are there other skills to get to 120? I assume I just need money and DXP weekend to knock 120 herblore out.
4) Where can I find information for best rotations for range or magic? There seems to be some new abilities.
5) Anyone got a clan for someone like me to join? Unfortunately all my RS3 friends have quit the game.
Anything else of importance I should know? I'm looking forward to playing some RS3 again :)

I’ve taken a break from grinding rs3. I Mostly play on mobile before bed/ when I have time. I can do Nex on mobile with my range set up and do some ed 1/2 runs with mage often. I think that anim dead and FSOA on mobile were awesome as the fucking user interface is garbage. Most PVM is aids as you can’t easily switch/ use abilitys and defensives, but I was still able to mobile Andy with anim dead and my nice lil FSOA rotation.
How did you wait two years and a full ED3+ Zammy boss cycle of content to decide yeah… this shits overpowered.
How the fuck can you nerf Onslaught-Tendrils-Magma tempest- then nerf the staff autos infinity procs and finally after 2 months of the staff being out and 4+ nerfs go yeah… this is good.
You specifically made Zammy a pain in the ass because you tuned it around anim dead and FSOA. Zammy 1000%+ enrage is now going to be so god damn hard even for sweaty players it probably won’t be worth it. Requiring a nerf to that boss….
ROD changes and nerf were a joke. Like it shows how pathetic things have gotten. You can’t even finish up the death rework-you are 3 months behind on the max cash change-and have a new skill coming out.
The least you can do as developers is plan and lay out a proper goal for pvm. Adrenaline is quickly getting out of control and requires niche items/set ups. Defensives are become overly complex and required. People don’t want to push 30 key binds with shift and alt modifiers just to survive zammy.
This all goes back to your game being on mobile. You need to figure out where you want this games pvm to go and work with your players. Not just keep throwing “cool concepts of power creep” out for players to find a abuse in 1 day. There is 0 communication or planning with your active player base. Stop doing things that seem healthy when non of you seem to play the game.
OSRS is starting to look so much better and it’s sad because rs3 always had a history and unique style. But if your going to milk players for mtx and destroy the value of their time to learn content with nerfs you are going to kill off your player base.

We all know that a lot of OSRS content is a slightly modified backport of rs2 content. The Voidwaker, Twisted Bow, and Demonic Gorillas come to mind immediately. This is not a bad thing by any means. With the power of hindsight, items and enemies can benefit from better balancing. The tbow comes from a raid and not from dungeoneering, the Voidwaker is currently an over 200m gp item and is likely to remain as expensive as it should be for the power it offers, in rs2 it was just a quest reward. Instead of dropping an endgame spec weapon, demonic gorillas drop the current BiS jewelry items, all of which are nice to pick up for any account, but don't overshadow the more impressive drops that come from actual bosses.
So why is the OSRS team so hesitant to look at curses for the sake of creating a new prayer book? It's the only example we have of new prayers being added to a very similar version of the game, and they weren't an unsuccessful update by any means. Sure, on release they were incredibly poorly balanced, but that's not a problem for OSRS, they had very exciting concepts and were generally loved by players. And furthermore, we already have two bosses in the game that use curses. Nex has wrath, deflects, and soul split, while muspah only has soul split.
And while deflects and soul split are somewhat of a forbidden concept for the osrs community, let me propose a couple ways to balance them to enhance the current game, instead of completely ruining existing metas through their introduction.
Deflects - On release, these blocked 100% of incoming damage and offered extra dps. There's no reason this has to remotely be the case in OSRS, it would be completely reasonable for these prayers to only block something like 50% of damage. Now for a casual player, this by itself would be very unexciting as slightly faster kill times are nowhere near as good as longer trips for getting drops. So why not have them work exactly the same as regular protection prayers for encounters that have unavoidable chip damage. This would present a solution for frustration with newer content like Nex or ToA where you simply can't negate damage, at least you'd know that the boss is getting punished for the damage you're forced to take.
Soul Split - One of the things that increases the skill ceiling for rs3 is soul split flicking, this is essentially the concept of only turning the prayer on when you're attacking and using a protection prayer when the boss is. This mechanic would be good as is, but requires a few changes for Old School. First of all, since the deflects would not fully protect you, you'll never have the same level of sustain even with soul split flicking as you would with regular protection prayers, at least if the prayer is balanced properly. The amount of healing it gives should be somewhere in the ballpark of 10% of the damage you deal, the same as it is in rs3 currently. And furthermore, it should have an activation cost of 1-2 prayer points. This would mean that you use significantly more prayer if you soul split flick, spend more effort doing so, and consume more prayer potions. The advantage of this is that you can use deflection prayers while still getting more sustain than you generally would. And again, for bosses with chip damage, this would mitigate a lot of the frustration.
Leech Prayers - These prayers could perfectly fit the ideal described by the team, where instead of rewarding flicking, they reward leaving the prayer on and accepting the prayer drain. But the leeching aspect was implemented very poorly and will almost certainly always outcompete Piety, Rigour, and Augury. So instead, these prayers should ramp up the stat boost you gain, completely independently of the boss you're fighting, and that stat boost should disappear if you turn the prayer off. These should cap out at maybe being 5-10% better than the existing prayers, with the exception of the mage prayer that should give magic damage. It would also offer an interesting conflict with the reduced protection you get from the deflection prayers, as if they took a minute to reach their full effect, they would reward sustain and long trips far more. And if these benefits reset back to their base state when you're in a completely safe area, it would incentivize longer trips instead of the PoH spec restore meta that's dominant at a lot of bosses.
And even with all of that being said, we have to look at the curses in their original context when it comes to prayer level requirements. The deflects need prayer levels in the 70s, while the leech strength prayer needs 82 prayer, which should be the baseline for the new ramp up prayers. Furthermore, as overpowered as it was, soulsplit required 92 prayer, which could easily be increased to something like 95 in old school. These higher level prayer requirements to make the new prayer book conditionally better than the existing one would serve two functions. First, it would substantially reward training prayer past level 77, as that's where a lot of people currently stop until they reach endgame content. Secondly, it would make this set of prayers a piece of content most players would only engage with in the later stages of the midgame at the earliest, as their full potential would be reliant on significant skilling requirements and being able to obtain the bones through either having substantial gp on a main or unlocking later game PvM on an iron.
In the end, even if they were straight up better than the standard prayers, their full effects being locked behind a high prayer level would mean that for a lot of your earlier bossing, you would still be using the prayers we all are nostalgic for. There's no inherent problem with content that has higher requirements being better than content you get by just spending a couple hours and a few million gp at the chaos altar before you first get into midgame PvM.
TL;DR: The ancient curses were a very exciting update in RS2, and with the knowledge we have now and the perspective we have from RS3, the most significant ones could easily be balanced for OSRS by embracing the gameplay they offer with only slight modifications to their effects.

So I played RS since classic. Played RS2 when it was the main RS and loved it. 2011/12ish my account was hacked and banned. Got it back two years ago and have been playing RS3.
I played a bit of OSRS a month ago out of nostalgia and got the itch, but ironically enough I find OSRS to be a bit overwhelming. I got used to a lot of the QOL stuff from RS3 and forget a lot of basic things that were second nature back in the day.
What are your recommendations for getting started back and getting a feel for the game again? I forgot how slow the OSRS grind is and want to experience but still want to experience some of the newer stuff that wasn't around back when I played (I think the last thing that came out before I lost my account was Nex).
I should note when I returned to RS a couple years ago, I was already near maxed and so I returned to late/end game content. I literally don't remember all of the early stuff at all.

How can you get this item in a duo/Trio scenario ?
we have a new friend that joined rs3 not that long ago and we have gotten him to the point were he is gonna get his defender and we have tried everything, he has the T70 defender in this inventory and he has killed nex 224 times with the defender,
We have tried Lootshare on a lootshare worldwe have tried speed killing itwe have tried he does the most dmgmany uniques have dropped but no emblem
Can someone give us some insight in how you get this item to drop in a duo/trio scenario ?
Edit. Thanks for all replies, Conclusion do it in a lootshare world if you group kill her
Edit edit: it finally dropped

The challenge is over, but of course I had some left-over spots.

Hey
This is just a list with some notes on several Rs3 Bosses I have at least a respectively decent Kc at. I just like making lists and analyze things. Lemme know where you agree or disagree or just what your experiences were :D
I will determine the boss' difficulty based on my own feeling in: Very Easy, Easy, Medium, Hard, Very Hard. I will determine it twice for each boss, once for the difficulty I had to learn it and one for how difficult or mabye how intense the boss is right now for me. Example: Araxxi: Hard/Medium - Hard at the time to learn, now its medium difficulty for me. Since some of these bosses were learnt many years prior, it may look weird that very easy bosses might have been medium difficulty for me at some point, so keep that in mind. I will also rate them from 1-10 with decimal digits about my motivation to attend the boss. Let's go.
​
Araxx/oi
Difficulty: Hard/Medium - Killcount: 621
+ Interesting mechanics and I personally haven't felt dry on it ever due to the 1/40 droprates of the leg pieces. I like the diversity of the boss with the open and closed paths as a design choice so it changes things every now and then.
- I hate the timegated mechanics with the web burnings, the acid pool and the whole bottom path. I dislike that the top paths mechanic "Spider Spawns" make the fight nearly twice as hard. Reflect mechanics are imo a lazy choice to make something "hard". Minor inconvenience that the magic and ranged autoattacks from Araxxi are different speeds, making it weird with prayer flicking when you aren't standing at the right distance.
Overall Rating: 3.25/10 - 5.5/10 if top path is closed
​
Arch-Glacor HM - 250% enrage
Difficulty: Easy/Easy-Medium - Killcount: 443
+ Very beginner friendly, haven't had many problems with any mechanic except the giant beam at first when devotion was on cd. Can be a quite chill boss (pun intended) to do and gives pretty good common loot. As somebody who isn't normally fond of streaking mechanics, there I enjoyed it.
- Gets pretty boring after 100 or 200 kills. You can get pretty dry even though I didn't (Core and Pet before 400 kc). Minion Spawns are clunky to deal with and Arch-Glacor hitbox gets in the way sometimes.
Overall Rating: 6/10
​
Chaos Elemental
Difficulty: Very Easy/Very Easy - Killcount: 218
+ Easy Reaper Task and you might get lucky
- Not actually a boss to be honest, doesnt need any changes though.
Overall Rating: 3/10
​
Commander Zilyana NM
Difficulty: Easy/Very Easy - Killcount: 448
+ Easy and chill pet hunt with some occasional decent drops
- probably the worst money maker from the four
Overall Rating: 3.5/10
​
Corporeal Beast
Difficulty: Medium/Easy - Killcount: 2372
+ Used to be good money while going for a pet hunt
- It's been a while since I really killed it, but the core can be a bit tedious to deal with. Overall not an interesting boss anymore
Overall Rating: 3/10
​
Dagannoth Kings
Difficulty: Medium/Very Easy - Killcount: 1098
+ Nowadays pretty good money and can be semi AFK'ed. Due to being able to kill around 200/h you most likely won't be dry for long. It's a nice log/pet hunt Boss
- It's a pity you can't auto alch the armour pieces with the Spring cleaner, so quite a few drops you won't have time to pick up.
Overall Rating: 6.5/10
​
General Graardor NM
Difficulty: Medium/Very Easy - Killcount: 711
+ Easy pet hunt boss with occasional decent drops
- Nearly as bad money as Zilyana
Overall Rating: 3.5/10
​
Gregorovic NM
Difficulty: Hard/Easy - Killcount: 739
+ An AFKable Boss with nice drops
- Even though he can be AFKed he can tear you to pieces if standing too close. Those jumping around mechanics he has are just so unnecessary. The sound has to be muted there....
Overall Rating: 5/10
​
Helwyr NM
Difficulty: Medium/Easy - Killcount: 776
+ A beautiful atmosphere. Interesting mechanics and I'd say a good entry in using different types of ability in fights. So kinda beginner friendly but still a little challenging. The drops spiked in price and he is also AFKable, therefore good money right now. Good for pet/log hunt.
- Odd hitbox with his cleave attack. Pet makes weird noises ;D
Overall Rating: 7/10
​
Kalphite King
Difficulty: Medium/Medium - Killcount: 68
Its been a long time since I did this boss.
+ Nice boss to duo...
- It, at least used to, lag as hell...
yeah not much to say... :D
Overall Rating: 5/10 I guess...
​
Kerapac NM
Difficulty: Easy-Medium/Easy - Killcount: 456
+ Probably the best "easy" boss to kill right now. Doesn't require much input to kill, can be killed decently fast and gives good money per hour.
- Where and how he spawns, where the loot ends up being and where you enter the instance could be... a bit more efficient...
Overall Rating: 7.5/10
​
King Black Dragon
Difficulty: Very Easy/Very Easy - Killcount: 137
+ Nice pet hunt boss and is part of a special wildy flash event.
- Pretty boring and pointless boss outside of special wildy flash events
Overall Rating: 3/10
​
Kree'Arra NM
Difficulty: Easy/Very Easy - Killcount: 3046
+ Awesome Pet hunt boss with pretty decent money per hour and some free armadylean components through the warpriest gear drops. Easily the best GWD1 Boss (excluding Nex)
- The push around mechanic limits where to stand for quick looting and some of the minions tend to attack before Kree which leads to sometimes having longer kills with relying on auto retaliate since your character keeps killing minions and not Kree.... Experience fictitous... definitely...
Overall Rating: 6.75/10
​
K'ril Tsutsaroth NM
Difficulty: Medium/Very Easy - Killcount: 1384
+ Good Pet hunt boss with decent money per hour and free zamorakian components from warpriest drops... sounds familiar hm?
- Actually none except for beginners the 4k hit can mess you up and it is kinda weird that you shouldn't pray at low levels...
Overall Rating: 5.75/10
​
Nex
Difficulty: Hard/Medium - Killcount: 604
+ Hard to go dry on, even though I kinda did, due to frequent drops. Good money per hour and can be pretty chill when duoing.
- Dumb damage caps and high defense levels, especially the cap on minions... comparably costly, outdated instance cost and a 10m fee to have a boss portal... really... The Arena to fight Nex in sucks imo. When you ask me shadow phase is the worst.
Overall Rating: 5/10
​
Queen Black Dragon
Difficulty: Medium/Very Easy - Killcount: 1967
+ Childhood memories :)... Used to be good money
- Kinda useless boss for non Irons I'd say
Overall Rating: 4/10
​
Raksha
Difficulty: Hard-Very Hard/Medium - Killcount: 446
+ My best money maker. Can be quite fun to do
- Rockfalls suck and are a lazy design. Misclicking the pools.... WHY ARE THERE EMPTY SPOTS IN THERE... *breathe*. Mechanics requiring movement of the player is a bit tedious with this engine imo and so many abilities root you in place...
Overall Rating: 7/10
​
Rex Matriarchs
Difficulty: N/A - Killcount: 1254
Pthentraken: Medium/Easy
Orikalka: Easy-Medium/Very Easy-Easy
Rathis: Very Easy/Very Easy
+ P is pretty good money and semi afkable. O is 90% AFK and decent money. R is 100% AFKable and ok money. Your average boss trio.
- Nothing really, they aren't super innovative but they do not have to be
Overall Rating: 7/10
​
Telos -200% enrage
Difficulty: Medium-Hard/Medium - Killcount: 132
+ Pretty beginner friendly below 100% enrage and you can get quite lucky even without streaking a lot
- I don't like streaking with changing mechanics but that's just me so I don't see any really bad design there. Just not my cup of tea
Overall Rating 5.5/10
​
Twin Furies NM
Difficulty: Easy/Easy - Killcount: 699
+ Cool Concept. Good money through the only valuable essences of the 4.
- Nothing really
Overall Rating: 6/10
​
TzKal-Zuk NM
Difficulty: Very Hard/Medium-Hard - Killcount: 13 (I know not notable but I wanted him in this list)
+ The Boss fight itself is a really well done one imo. Cool challenge in total for a valuable reward. Love that it has checkpoints which make it beginner friendly.
- I don't like "minion wave designs" in Rs3 (same reason I don't like any of the ED's, yea hate me...). I think the boss requires to much input resource-wise to attend that way. If only Zuk itself would be the boss I'd probably spam him. A couple of weeks ago I would've also critisized that it isn't a safe death, but with modern death costs I don't mind that anymore. (I thought the used resources were punishment enough)
Overall Rating: 4.5/10
​
Vindicta & Gorvek
Difficulty: Easy/Very Easy - Killcount: 2424
+ Was my favourite boss for a long time with good profit and an interesting fight. One of my first contact with trying to "phase" a boss as quick as possible and I got comfortable with shield switching.
- It is a bit annoying that you sometimes get pushed into the fire when she phases.
Overall Rating: 7/10
​
And that's it. Those are all the bosses I have made a notable experience with. I wanna add that it might look more negative than it is. It's not that I hate bosses below a rating of 5, it is a combination between unfun mechanics and/or just being pointless for me to attend or even for the past me to attend. So a 10/10 boss would be a super fun, just the right amount of challenging, and best possible profit, one, which to be honest might not be desirable for the game's well being since it is an MMO.
Feel free to agree and disagree :)

Hello, I'm actually learning mid lvl pvm and I would like to find a partner to improve more my pvm skills. For example, I'm actually learning solo Nex but I'm stuggling a bit. I would like to find someone who has experience or someone to learn with. / Hola, actualmente estoy aprendiendo a hacer mid lvl pvm y me gustaría encontrar a un compañer@ para mejorar en pvm. Por ejemplo, actualmente estoy aprendiendo solo Nex pero me está costando mucho, por lo que me gustaría tener a un compañer@ que tenga experiencia o que quiera aprender conmigo.
Podéis contactarme por aquí o añadirme en rs3 id: arrasa.
​
Thanks you / Muchas gracias.

I played RuneScape for many many years - from when I was a kid right until just about the release of RS3. I have an account which is almost maxxed and I put almost a year of gameplay time into it.
I quit playing because the game had changed so much so was pretty annoyed when they released 2007 Scape and essentially would be forced to start my account again.
I'm now almost 30 years old. I have a very low level OSRS account which I made many years ago when it came out.
Thing I enjoyed the most about RS back in the day was bossing - godwars, nex, corporeal beast etc. as well as things like castle wars.
However much of this was enjoyable because it was pretty much end game content and I had a maxxed account with best in slot gear.
It's not really possible for me to invest the same amount of time that I once could into RuneScape. I really only get a few hours a week where I can sit down and game for a while.
My question is this - if I want to get back into OSRS and enjoy end game content what are.my options?
Is it still a gruelling slog to get 99 on a skill? How much time would realistically need invested into an account to get maxxed combat stats and a quest cape for example?
I'm toying with the idea of buying members again and starting this account where I left off (level 62) but the climb back to 120 or 138 or whatever it is these days is extremely daunting - especially at my age!
Advice and thoughts appreciated!
P.s. think Jagex would let me switch me RS3 account over to OSRS or is that just a ridiculous question?

View Poll

I would like to get opinions on and item that already exists in rs3, its a gem that allows you to get through the nex door. Maybe if you can do 1 kill trips and telly to your house just to come back with this item and go into the door.
​
thoughts?

Right now we have Nex and Nightmare mass worlds. but what about Corporeal Beast ffa world?
Or maybe just put a name to a world called "mass pvm ffa" because it is hard for some people without friends (like me) to go pvming, is hard to build trust into a person and try to call split, because is hard to trust they will split. I understand coinshare and lootshare systems are rs3 things, However this makes it really hard to find pvm teams.
I have been trying to go mass corporeal beast with a team and is hard to find one. There is "4mancorpffa" but they care way too much about the rules and it is not efficient. I mean why should anyone be banned for trying to improve the team with a cannon for the core?
I am trying to do a team of 4 or more people, with no prohibitions, just everyone trying their best for DPS and that's it.
I believe corp mass ffa world is much needed because it is really hard to solo it.
Thank you, I would appreciate some likes and comments to see if jagex implement this, which would be just naming an unnamed world, cost nothing to them, and might improve quality of life for some players.

There have, for awhile now, been a lot of hints and rumors towards a potential Mahjarrat/Zaros-themed quest that has gone by the names "The Fallen Empire" or referred to as "Desert Treasure 2", but whatever you want to call it, it would basically be an OSRS-take on Temple at Senntisten/Ritual of the Mahjarrat/Curse of Arrov and all those 2010ish era quests from the RS2 days. Notably, these were some of the quest lines that gave players access to things like Ancient Curses, Storm of Armadyl, and the game itself got things like a graphical rework done of the Mahjarrat (similar to what happened to the elves with Song of the Elves) and related in-game areas, new dungeons with new monsters like Glacors, or maybe frost dragons. Maybe we could see a new Slayer monsteboss variant above Hydra, so a level 96 Slayer unlock above Hydra (Hydra came out as a level 95 Slayer unlock nearly 4 years ago, I think we're due for a new one), there's a lot of possibilities that they could go with for this, just some reward ideas to consider.
​
If I were to make the quest, I'd design it to be similar to Desert Treasure but with influence from all the aforementioned RS2 quests acting as the four subquests, before the final fifth challenge at the end (which in this case would be the Ritual of Rejuvenation boss fight from RotM). There would be four subquests, or paths, that would need to be completed, in any order, to proceed to the final ritual fight. These paths would tie together the plots from previous Master quests.
​
Quest Requirements:
-Desert Treasure
-Beneath Cursed Sands
-Making Friends with My Arm
-The Fremennik Exiles
-Sins of the Father
-Temple of the Eye
-Enakhra's Lament
-Hazeel Cult
-What Lies Below
-The Slug Menace
-The General's Shadow (miniquest)
-The Frozen Door (miniquest)
-Into The Tombs (miniquest)
​
Quest Start: After speaking to Azzanadra and receiving an intel update on the fast-approaching ritual, he asks you to assist both himself and several other Zarosian Mahjarrat, while also requesting that you to try to sabotage some of the Zamorakian Mahjarrat, these requests will turn into the four subquests.
​
Azzanadra's Path, Subquest 1: This subquest would have you work together with Azzanadra to restore the Temple at Senntisten and aid Azzanadra for the purposes of him accessing Ancient Curses, like the ones Nex uses, to buff his strength for the final fight. This subquest will also require several trips to the desert, revisiting locations from Desert Treasure as well as Beneath Cursed Sands, with a tie-in to the Tombs of Amascut and Amascut herself, in order to require items needed by Azzanadra.
​
Jhallan's Path, Subquest 2: This subquest will mainly revolve around the Fremennik and Weiss areas, as you learn from Fremenniks about tales of the ritual being witnessed by them long ago, and Azzanadra sends you to Weiss to prepare the ritual site in advance, this leads to the discovery of Jhallan, a weaker Zarosian Mahjarrat who intends to stay hidden near the ritual site to absorb power from the ritual without participating, and you can either choose to help him with his plan to hide near the ritual site, or report the discovery of him to Azzanadra, and Azzanadra would instead convince him to fight and ask that you bring Jhallan to him. During this path you would also discover that Koschei the Deathless from the Fremennik quest series is actually a Mahjarrat in disguise who stored his own memories of being a Mahjarrat away, named Kharshai. In RuneScape 2, he did not take place in this ritual, and was discovered afterwards. This small change would bring the dynamic of a neutral, non-Zarosian and non-Zamorakian Mahjarrat to the table for the ritual.
​
Zemouregal's Path, Subquest 3: In this subquest, you'd work with the Temple Knights following your promotion to Proselyte in The Slug Menace to conduct espionage on the Zamorakian Mahjarrat working out of the nearby areas, Lucien and Zemouregal, Azzanadra will also ask that you do things while spying on them to sabotage their battle efforts during the ritual. It would be during this section that you'd discover the current whereabouts of the Stone of Jas, an artifact hinted at in both Temple of the Eye and Sins of the Father.
​
Sliske's Path, Subquest 4: For this subquest, you would meet the slippery Mahjarrat Sliske directly, for the first time. He would reveal himself as an ally of Azzanadra's and as one of the Zarosian faction, and ask you to help him empower his Barrows brothers for the upcoming fight. He would also reveal that he was the one that guided you towards reopening Nex's prison, and he'd ask you to go and battle Nex in a one-off quest solo fight to recruit her to the Zarosian Mahjarrat's side for the ritual. After defeating her, Nex agrees to lend her support as a fellow member of the fallen Zarosian Empire.
​
Final Challenge, Ritual of Rejuvenation: During the final challenge near the Ghorrock Fortress and the Ritual Marker, you'd team up with Zarosian side of battle, which includes past characters like Azzanadra, Sliske, Akthanakos, Jhallan (if you reported him to Azzanadra and coerced him into participating), as well as some Temple Knights and Fremennik, vs. Lucien, Khazard, Zemouregal, Enakhra, and Hazeel (if you freed him during The Hazeel Cult). My pick for who the sacrifice is this time would be Lucien this time around, since he dies anyways during the ritual, after the sacrifice, which was Jhallan, in Ritual of the Mahjarrat, but I don't really care who Jagex wants to make it, that's just my opinion.
​
As for rewards, things I already mentioned, such as:
-Nerfed and rebalanced Ancient Curses, maybe a built-in anti-flick system, where upon initial activation of any of the curses, it would cost you 1 Prayer point. Turning on more or switching combat or overhead prayers wouldn't cost more, only the initial activation, this would curb one-tick flicking from allowing a player to gain a serious advantage, but you could still flick between overheads at no further cost besides the natural passive Prayer drain. This kind of system would mean that you'd run out of Prayer points within 99 ticks of constant one-tick flicking (at 99 Prayer), since each tick would cost you 1 Prayer point. They could also do without such a system if they just rebalance the curses well enough. To keep from powercreeping the normal Prayer book completely, there would be no Magic or Ranged equivalents to Turmoil like what RS3 has, this would basically mandate that you use the normal Prayers for Magic and Ranged still, so you can access Augury and Rigour.
​
-A new dungeon under the Ghorrock Fortress containing glacors, frost dragons, and a new Slayer monster unlocked at 96 Slayer, dragonkin, as well as a Dragonkin Slayer boss that can be killed on a task (but you don't need to be on a task, you just need the level to kill it). The boss would release the next set of Magic robes beyond Ancestral, something akin to Virtus to parallel the releases of Torva and Masori, so T80 Magic robes, basically, most likely as attachments to Ancestral, some ancient magical fabrics lost in the icy cold area that can be sewn to pieces of Ancestral. It can be killed in a group but the boss fight itself is instanced. It would be soloable. This Dragonkin boss wouldn't need to release with this quest and the rest of the content in the dungeon, it could come later, similar to the Tombs of Amascut coming out awhile after Beneath Cursed Sands, giving players plenty of time to prepare for the boss release. Some other drops could be included as well, like the Staff of Armadyl being introduced as an obtainable item and redesigned to more closely resemble the RS2 HD version, unlike the Storm of Armadyl spell though, this would instead be a powered staff, a T85 1-handed powered staff, something slightly stronger than the Sanguinesti staff but able to be used with a shield, the Tumeken's shadow would still be outright more destructive in it's overall DPS. Instead of runes, you'd charge the staff with collected nihil shards from the Ancient Prison, and residual Jas energy that is dropped in varying quantities from all monsters within this new dungeon as a result of the Stone of Jas being kept in the area recently for the ritual. All of these rewards would be locked behind quite a bit of content so I feel like prices would stay relatively high on them for awhile. This new Staff of Armadyl would need a unique passive effect to keep the Magic metas interesting. As for the Dragonkin boss fight itself, I'd love if it was a tribrid, but primarily Magic-based encounter, maybe give the Ancient wyvern shield a use, since the shield is currently basically dead content, and if the dragonfire shield variants are mandatory for the Dragonkin boss encounter, and Magic was the primary combat style, it would make this shield almost a must-have. As you can imagine, this would mean the Staff of Armadyl I'm proposing, would probably be the BiS weapon of choice, since a near hard-requirement for a shield would make the Tumeken's shadow difficult to use.
​
-Another reward I'd like is for this quest to come with the reward of the Temple Knights promoting you from a Proselyte to an Acolyte rank, with this rank-up, you'd gain access to new degradable Temple Knight equipment, some Prayer-based equipment, maybe some sort of hybrid armour set, something similar to Warpriest armour on RS3. Basically tank hybrid armour that has decent stats for and against all combat styles. I'd imagine something like this would be BiS at a place like the Dragonkin boss, or would be useful gear for content like raids to cut down on switches. As long as it costs money to upkeep, similar to Barrows equipment, I think it would be worth the cost to use such a set. Ideally it would be a body, legs, boots, and gloves. No helm slot, this is so you can use it with a Slayer helm or other helms like a Serpentine helm if needed. The items would all be part of the Acolyte armour set. Since the colors of an Acolyte are white and green (as seen by the acolyte white knights having green helmet plumes), this set could be color-matched to match the Twisted slayer helm extremely well, to make it look like a set of 5 items. It goes without saying but the set would likely have a set effect to incentivize you to wear all four pieces together, similar to Void/Crystal/JusticiaInquisitor, but something you can also stack with a Slayer helm.
​
If they staggered out this content in waves of releases following the quest, they could easily spread all of this out over an entire year and it would be a very interesting content year, to say the least.
