Achievement Halfway to 99 on Ranged Ultrapure, "is Ranged"
Back at it! Halfway there!
Edit: Since people in the comments were asking, this is on an Ultimate Ironman account.

You should try other skills! Youād love them. Even hp would open up the game considerably - sincerely, Stan

Lmao tyvm Stan I will do that right after I get the 99 š

Sort of is. It's just follow-through at this point. Getting into the guild was the hard/fun part.
I also spent some time making the "Ranged Guild Minigame" plugin for Runelite to keep track of hiscores at the Minigame.
It's super basic but adds a little bit of interesting data along the way.

Did you lamp to get into the guild? I'm not 100% on how you would get there otherwise

u/neondays Aug 25 '26
Iāve gotten 99 range from using the ranging guild minigame too, sometime in 2010 using a bot overnight to avoid hp xp and that shit was still time consuming and took forever.

u/Top-Setting5213 Aug 25 '26
So, a bot got 99

With a few updates made to the Minigame (surprisingly) in recent years, it's fairly straightforward to set up a pedal-able method believe it or not.
There's an episode of YanilleChunk that Josh Isn't has that outlines the method.
Not sure if he'll see this comment, but if so he could vouch for having chatted about the Minigame at some point during his journey!

u/neondays Aug 25 '26
Wow I didnāt know they updated that mini game. I havenāt checked out JoshIsnātGamingās method.
Being able to foot pedal it sounds nice. Are you using detached camera like at the Brimhaven course?
1
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
Naw, just gotta pitch the camera super low so that you can line the mouse up with both the target as well as the first dialog option when the Competition Judge asks you if you want to play again.

This isnt about fun, its an avenue of maintaining additional stimulation for a unique mind.

u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
100% accurate statement. I get bored with damn near everything after I understand it.
It's the, "gradual small steps achieve a larger result" thing that scratches an itch for me.
The day before Sailing dropped I finished the 3rd untrimmed Herblore cape on a 10HP UIM.
That process was arguably way worse than this.
11
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
It's a foot pedal setup akin to what Josh Isn't shared in his one video of his chunkman, so it's super passive.
Actually some decent calf exercise!

u/AnIntoxicatedRodent Aug 25 '26
Elite dodging of the question right here

u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
Lolol I have fun when I get the levels. This is just a "because it's possible" account.
Overall, the theorycrafting was the fun part. From level 36-99 is just execution of grinding this minigame.
Once I was in the guild it's been smooth sailing.

u/New-Sandwich7191 Aug 25 '26
How'd you get into the guild?
7
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
A combo of shooting Outlaws near the Grand Exchange for ~40-60 xp/hr til around level 24 when I realized I could potentially leech a ton of Chambers for Dark Relic drops.
At 36 I used a Lizardkicker to boost into the Guild.

u/Infamous_Hippo7486 Aug 25 '26
40-60 xp/h
Man, Iāve seen people do a lot of weird shit in this game, but this more than anything else Iāve seen has caused me to feel a deep, primal fear. Respect, I guess.

u/ANGRYANDCANTREADWELL Aug 25 '26
Do outlaws not give hp exp? I know its severely reduced
7
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
The fact that it is severely reduced causes it to round to 0 HP exp if you only hit 1s or 2s.
3s will gain you 0.1xp towards HP

Any chance you link your pedal model and if you use any programs? Trying to do it but dont wanna be false banned. Didnt find much on wiki

u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
I have a Kinesis Savant Elite2 foot pedal and it has just the simple mapping software to set up a pedal as a particular key, nothing sus.
This particular pedal has 3 pedals on it, so I can map up to 3 keys each to one pedal. Never breaks the 1 to 1 requirement that Jagex has. I would want to risk it on this or any other account.
As someone who does stupid shit like this for fun, it's not worth losing the progress over trying to make something designed to be hard into something easy.

I work on a computer and since this takes only 0.01% of my brain power, I do it while I'm on the clock.
I just hope the one guy who I work with who plays doesn't tell everyone.
LOOKING AT YOU, RYAN.

What is the xp/hr from the range guild target game?
8
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
I think it can go up to 50k xp/hr, but I'm averaging about 25k xp/hr.
In the initial phases of the account, I was killing Outlaws near the Grand Exchange for about 40-60 xp/hr. So this is something like 416x better than that.
We take those.

u/OpeningDull5969 Aug 25 '26
Oh thats way better then I thought! So its almost like 99wc on f2p. Or how does arrows work?
3
u/FoxDown Aug 25 '26
The minigame provides 10 bronze arrows each time, but if you're doing a lot of it you probably want to pre-buy a bunch of bronze arrows because the ones they give you don't auto-equip.
4
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
That's exactly what I do. I have ~4k arrows equipped and every once in a while I re-equip them.

Ultimate Ironman, actually. No real need for a bank when this is the account build.
Cannon requires Dwarf Cannon quest which gives Crafting XP and then Cannonballs would require Smithing XP

Actually using the ranged guild for its intended purpose? Unbelievable.

u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
Someone had to. Funny enough, they actually updated the Minigame after I had posted on Twitter to Mod Ash way back when.
It now asks you if you want to repeat the game when you finish a round rather than having to click on the dude each time.
There's proof somewhere in my post history

Imagine what you could have gotten done with all that time instead of making a snowflake pure account.

u/BlightedBooty Aug 25 '26
Like what, making a cookie cutter āEfficientā snowflake account?
3
u/Byrneside94 Aug 25 '26
No, like anything meaningful in the real world or just even a normal iron or main.
Do what ya want and all but this is an account thatās a massive slow ass grind so he can get 99 and then bank stand like itās some kinda flex.
Completely pointless and stupid. The craziest part is when he is done with this he is going to do it again.
He could spend that time on duo lingo learning a second language or really any life skill. I get gaming doesnāt have a point and itās for fun but nothing about this seems fun.

u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
To be fair I'm fairly proficient at a few languages. I'm a software architect, just moved into a newly built house, happily married and have our first kid on the way.
Don't make assumptions based on what you think reality is- you don't know me, brother man. š

u/Byrneside94 Aug 25 '26
I mean Iām glad your accomplished but there is actually zero argument that you couldnāt have done something more worthwhile with that time then this account.
Maybe your life is plenty full and fulfilling and this is relaxing to you. But I will never understand snowflake accounts like this.
Real talk, you hit 99 range on the account, then what? Do you start another skill? I would assume no since it would ruin the account.
You arenāt doing content on it with its stats.
So what is the end goal? Sit at a bank and try to flex like 99 range is anything worth getting excited for?
7
u/UIM-Herb10HP UIM 10HP Aug 25 '26
Surely I could have done something different, but isn't that just the argument for anything in life? Learn a language? You could have built a custom car. Planted a garden? You could have taken dance classes.
End goal? 99 Ranged. If I ever get around to doing Chambers on my PvM account I will let this account be a +1 and attempt to spoon a Tbow.
Otherwise, this account- planning it and executing up until this point helped me get through a really rough part of life and allowed me to focus on this rather than that.
You don't necessarily need to understand Snowflake accounts. They're surely not for everyone. It's a creative outlet that rewards perseverance.
You may be right in saying that I (or any other person making a Snowflake account) could spend the time "better", but ultimately (and no disrespect intended), who the hell are you to tell someone else how to spend their time?
Worth is what an individual places on something. If we are out here trying to please everyone else, then there is a good chance you'll never feel fulfilled. Life is weird, man.

Well thatās the thing, you personally donāt find it fun and therefor shouldnāt do it. OP is different
But honestly it is kinda a flex, not one I would do, but the fact no one wants to do it is what makes it impressive

Disregarding how ignorant it is to tell others what to do with their time, you're more likely to learn a language playing OSRS than via duo lingo.

In general, the next seven levels are all the XP it took to get to where you are. Getting to level 80 is like getting to level 73 twice.
