In spirit of the old 2007scape question threads on reddit, I thought to start making threads in the same fashion, MK II.

Post your questions, thoughts on Sailing, goals, achievements and so on!

I'll start, I'm currently taking a break as I had a drunken fall last week and am in hospital for a while with a fractured shinbone; fractured wrist; pulled tendons in my other knee and a smashed laptop; so no walking or RS for a while!

Eagerly awaiting to get back to ToB and finishing off the maxing grind (Only 94 slayer left!). I'm also contemplating getting a steam deck for RuneLite -- does anyone use it? How does it compare to mobile?

Also personally hyped for Varlamore!!

Cheers :-)

Well, I went from 2080 total last thread to 2090 now, which isn't a great pace if I'm trying to max. Have done more miscellaneous clog stuff and a clan bingo lately, so not skilling as much. But hey at least I never have to get another Merfolk Trident now. Still working towards finishing up elite diaries and I think elite combat achievements are making their way onto my radar of something I want to accomplish. So gonna have to start being decent at the game, at some point here.

As someone who is nearly maxed, pacing really helps.

I think I went from around 2k total to near 2.2k (my max since I'm a pure) in about 2-3 years on and off. I've mixed a lot of raids/bossing/pking in with it...

Sometimes I'll have a big xp session or other times I'll take a break and chuck all my pvm/pk stuff onto my alt.

Combat Achievements seem a good way to make some money and get some nice perks (2min thralls I'm looking at you!). I can definitely do elites, probably masters but as far as I'm aware you have to be a zerk at least to get the zuk helm :-)
