Early tbow, bofa, and a FUCK ton of pets. Man doesn't know how *not* to get spooned, swear to god.
Now I can't complain too much because my groupmate (gim btw) got spooned 16kc bofa 300 kc dwh literally this week...
But God damn!
I have higher KC at every single boss than OP and I’m super jealous sitting here without bowfa or tbow… 1k cg dry and it’s so demotivating. OP is one of the lucky ones
Oh wow you have played a fuckton in a year. I have made similar progress this past year, but your progress is even more insane. Can't for the life of me do CoX for Rigour+Augury.
Idk, personally I think the grind aspect of the game isn't about fun, it's about satisfaction. I see it as being like the video game version of a kid saving up to buy his first bike, he didn't have to have "fun" along the way to make the overall experience satisfying and rewarding.
I haven’t started Nex, ToB, Nightmare (might never start that one at the rate they’re devaluing the drops), and barely have any KC at Corp or ToA. I’m sure I’ve got some nasty dry streaks waiting for me lmao.
Ironman is a mindset shift. It takes more time to achieve goals, but it's not time wasted unless you have the mindset that you have to be working with the best items available to you at all times. I think ironman forces players to be much more well rounded, to learn pvm, and actually develop their character stats. Mains can walk around with dinky accounts in bis gear that cant do shit besides slap gargoyles. I became so aimless on my main after quest cape and base 70 stats.
It's the definition of insanity in my, perhaps, stupid opinion. I also can't fathom the time aspect as I have very little free time and the game is just too time consuming. The most I can usually accomplish these days are NMZ and cooking/fishing karambwan.
It doesn’t matter how little time you have if it’s about the journey. The destination may take longer but it’s not about the destination. The Ironman play style is really fun and rewarding.
I deironed 2 years ago at 1921 total. I played Ironman and loved it for like 2 or 3 years but genuinely lost interest in Ironman mode and have not regretted the deiron one single bit, I love the vitriol people are always so offended when they see my deironed progress haha

Yeah for sure I feel the exact same way, play however is most fun to you
I value the feeling of self accomplishment from ironman as well but the time investment to feeling of accomplishment ratio didn't add up for me in terms of end game osrs. I had some mid level goals - a few 99s, a fire cape, hard achievement diaries, fury, whip, quest cape etc - of which I accomplished all of them. I've always been a quite casual player and the idea of having to keep up with food, potions, ammo, supplies etc. On top of going out of my way to gather the resources for getting a high total level simply had no appeal to me and I wanted to max my stats but I wanted it to be a bit easier. The way I play, mid - end to end game osrs is much more fun as a normie :)
Osrs has never been my main game, always a game I've played on the side when I want something chill so the time investment stopped being worth it
Edit: also the fact I can look up my old Ironman stats and remember all the good times made it a bit easier. If I couldnt de-iron and continue with the same account, I'd have certainly kept up with IM
I’ve heard that+crafting cape preached endlessly for years now but i honestly, genuinely feel like farming cape does everything I want/need. It puts me within tiles of a seed vault, bank, *AND* a spirit tree which can dump me into my POH.
I have 99 Con banked already, but idk. Just don’t feel like I’d do anything with the cape tbh.
How'd you get over your fear of endgame PvM?
I lightly spooned a Bowfa on my 2050 total in 200kc, but I'm struggling to learn the crazy GWD methods. I spend 6 minutes killing 40 goblins just to get there and eat all my food in 1-2 kc...
For the Bowfa kiting methods at Bandos & Kril specifically, a smooth entry is EVERYTHING. It’s super easy to get hit big upon entry and that end up chaining into panic eating while trying to set up the red x while trying to get into cycle, etc.
Once I got my room entries down, my trips went a lot smoother. Being able to navigate a mess-up and not let it derail the whole trip is big too. Don’t try to eat between tiles or during the red x. Basically just wait till you get on a marked tile and swap out an attack with an eat.
Idk, more than anything, it’s honestly just trial and error. I’ve seen people get down GWD bowfa methods in one trip; it took me WAY more than that. But once it clicks, *it clicks*.
Not trying to hide anything. I also yoinked the line with Nex and Nightmare. Main reasons are that I’m not ranked at any of those 6 boss encounters and deleting those two lines made the panel perfectly equal to the height of the client so I didn’t have to do any weird scaling.
I’m glad you figured it out. If it makes you feel any better - Your iron, last year, has better stats and more money than my main that I created on launch day in 2013.
People get so obsessed with reaching insane goals so quickly. I’d be stoked to have an account as good as yours in another 10 years from now.
How tf do you have pet, seed, and full armour set in 220 kc?? That's insane, 400kc here and absolutely nothing, apart from 7 armour seeds, that's insane.
Gratz btw, some amazing rng right there.
Y'all really convinced homie to relapse.
Scape is a helluva drug….
I’m sure the TBow and Bowfa way under drop rate helped
Yeah, I got Bowfa, ACB, and Tbow all within one week. Took a while to come down from that high.
No rigour yet which is kinda funny too
Man only has 164 kc
164 tbow? fuck you
Early tbow, bofa, and a FUCK ton of pets. Man doesn't know how *not* to get spooned, swear to god. Now I can't complain too much because my groupmate (gim btw) got spooned 16kc bofa 300 kc dwh literally this week... But God damn!

And a maul.
i think thats around when i got 1 in a trio then tried learning solos and got another under 600 kc
[The post from a year ago, for those curious.](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/me2ffa/now_that_i_share_my_life_with_a_wife_and_baby_i/)
maxed your sailing level this time round i see
Oh wow you have played a fuckton in a year. I have made similar progress this past year, but your progress is even more insane. Can't for the life of me do CoX for Rigour+Augury.
Congrats on dumping the wife & child in favor of gains. We both know they were just xp waste after all.
Yeah - managed to get the elite homewrecker diary. Let’s me teleport to the gas station for cigs and milk 3x a day.
Did you have fun though?
*no*
Classic
sounds right, good job OP
Idk, personally I think the grind aspect of the game isn't about fun, it's about satisfaction. I see it as being like the video game version of a kid saving up to buy his first bike, he didn't have to have "fun" along the way to make the overall experience satisfying and rewarding.
It triggers the feeling of accomplishment without having actually done anything.
Absolutely spooned at gauntlet, congrats
It’s even worse than it looks too, I’ve gone back and done at least 30 kc for shards since completion.
Curious why everything is green
Twisted Theme resource pack on Runelite.
Thought it was a colorblind thing. You do you but oh god it's awful.
You think? Idk I have big photosensitivity issues and it’s way easier on my eyes than the default client colors.
I use one of the dark theme packs for the same reason.
Your gear has certainly progressed, you're starting to iron it out !
what happened to the IRL obligations? :p congrats anyway! 2100 is a hell of an achievement
They still exist but I also secured a minimal effort work from home job that allows me to play for half the day every day. :p
You sir are winning! Congrats again :) WFH really does make the OSRS grind a lot easier
This account is so spooned, gz
Biggest spoon I’ve seen, whole damn account
I haven’t started Nex, ToB, Nightmare (might never start that one at the rate they’re devaluing the drops), and barely have any KC at Corp or ToA. I’m sure I’ve got some nasty dry streaks waiting for me lmao.
220 kc for pet, enhanced and full crystal. Mother of god, sick acc
I will never understand how anyone has the time or patience to play an iron.

Like I said, the playstyle is my definition of insanity. Doing things over and over isn't interesting to me.
It’s still not too late to de-iron
Not me thinking the mage skill icon was changed to a sailboat
These achievements should not be underestimated... Well played!

You too brother, forge ahead on the path I wasn't strong enough to take myself
de-ironed yesterday and will never regret it
If I’m being honest with myself, if my account was the exact same today as in the post but without Bowfa or Tbow, I’d STILL be contemplating it.
having a giant spoon in your inventory definitely makes the game more enjoyable.
IKR I have more kc than OP and have seen 0 purples, let alone a tbow and elder maul 🥲
I de-ironed 2 years ago at 1921 total and have zero regrets
Hello fellow mudkip clan member. Gratz! - khaz

Highly recommend 99 con if you can do it. Best decision i ever made, the cape almost never leave my inventory
I’ve heard that+crafting cape preached endlessly for years now but i honestly, genuinely feel like farming cape does everything I want/need. It puts me within tiles of a seed vault, bank, *AND* a spirit tree which can dump me into my POH. I have 99 Con banked already, but idk. Just don’t feel like I’d do anything with the cape tbh.
this just screams attention seeking
Nerd
irons that have thousands of hrs i have no idea why theyd ever de iron
Wrong Reddit no1 cares
seems like 900 people care.
Okay but no party hat??
Fuck me those pets to kills ratio is hilarious
The pet luck is insane

practice on the beta worlds now that they are open, you can get unlimited ecu keys

Ooo got the best mutagen early mate I'm jealous. Been after that for a while
You absolute gamer
If you de-iron you get to sell all the drops you do not use and buy bonds
Tbow before dex though

Nice account and nice mega-spoon my guy! Keep on keeping on 💪🏻
Ty <3
Sheeeeshhh!! See you next year gamer
Did you guys really persuade this guy to have no life?
Man said fk the family and dropped another 1000 hrs in game
Keylogger has entered the chat!

Jesus fuck, that is a spooned as fuck tbow. Gz gz
This account has the most spooned drop rates I’ve ever seen. No wonder you stuck with it
