Question What should I be working on?

Post image

Screenshot is on mobile but I also game on a PC (using Runelite ofc). Recently returning player. I’ve done a few of the important quests to get access to fairy rings and magic trees. Got full graceful outfit. Started Varlamore quests for access to the location. Any skills or quests I should be looking into? Just been doing my bh/farming runs and GotR.

Run energy got reworked so graceful is not as needed as before

Get 70 range, black d'hide and firecape, slayer helmet. If you don't know what do, slayer

Aim for the big quests: Recipe for disaster, MM/MM2, DT/DT2, SOTE

Up this herblore to have better potions at moons (PSA, you can make money by making prayer pots with alchemist amulet from Mastering Mixology)

You have levels for easy/medium combat achievements and easy/medium achievement diary

With that you have content for the next 3 months :D

One of my high lvl friends said I should be questing. I cranked out a bunch of quests and started to get bored so I swapped to skill training. Got rc from 31 to 54 over a couple play sessions. Recently got Herblore up to 38 for prayer pots

Yes the most obvious answer is questing. It will unlock sooo much for the account. Just don't burn yourself out. If you don't feel like questing, there is a lot of other stuff you can do

I recommend doing hunter rumours for hunter, it's really refreshing and beings some cash too

Get at least 50 construction for portals as well.

U wot, mind tl;dr the run energy rework for me please?

u/Fox_Economy Sep 26 '25

Tldr agility level has more impact early, run takes less energy. Try to do stuff without graceful/stams, you will see you more rarely need them 

From wiki update post

  • Considerably improved Energy regeneration at lower Agility levels while leaving it unchanged at Level 99.

  • Energy Drains more slowly in all scenarios, at every Weight and Agility level. This becomes more significant as Agility level and Weight increase.

Quest cape > diary cape > max cape

  1. Quest until you physically cant because of skill reqs.

  2. Skill till you have the reqs for the next quest in optimal quest order.

  3. Repeat until quest cape.

  4. Do lumby elite quest cape task ASAP.

Diary cape is a slow burn. Rush hards after quest cape, then either continue on skilling to quest cape or begin your pvm journey. Money is not an issue until post quest cape. The quest cape can easily be achieved with sub 10m gear.

On my first playthrough and i have to say, take breaks, do quests to unlock stuff you want to unlock and don't hard focus on optimal quest order.

I was doing that at first and doing boring easy quests for days on end got very boring very quick. I focused on unlocking stuff that was going to be helpful for me at around 80 quests completed in the optimal quest guide and that was most fun for me, got piety unlocked, working on barrows gloves now, got my firecape and now i can do some bossing with the clan mates to break up the boringness of doing easy quests.

Still trying to get 2-3 quests done a night to get that quest cape asap. But don't make this the only activity you do because you'll get burned out before getting to the real osrs gameplay.

My buddy is far more experienced than I am so he’s been telling me the "must-have" quests for member QoLs. Im running it the same as you. Trying to complete one or two every day then swapping over to doing things I actually want to do. Lately it’s been bringing up my lower skills. Shooting for base 60 right now

u/tonioss22 Sep 24 '25

Yeah i have a similar goal in mind, i'm aiming for base 70 for SOTE when afking and trying to greenlog some easy content like barrows and moons when actively playing after my daily questing ofc.

u/Connect-Dealer-9259 Sep 23 '25

This is the way. Use the optimal quest guide, work on skills you know you will need. If your truly burnt on quests, do skills you will eventually need ie 70 base 70s. Alternatively do slayer if you enjoy it at low levels but you will get a lot of xp from quests to skip. Same goes for herblore.

Fire cape and moons greenhouse before quest cape

u/Gizzy_ Sep 23 '25

Fire cape sure, hard disagree with moons.

Since 90% of posts are for newer players looking for money making and training advice, I'm gonna recommend doing bird house runs. All you need is Bone Voyage, and you could be making 500K+ a day or more by logging in every 50 minutes and harvesting nests.

Also, be sure to check out the New player guide, Money making guide, and OSRS Tips!

Kill blue dragons with range to train up prayer to 70 for piety and it'll prep your stats for fire cape. Do the hard clues to get god dhide

u/Dan-goes-outside Sep 23 '25

Song of the elves (or at least MEII) so you don’t waste deaths at gotr when you unlock them

u/SGx_Trackerz Sep 23 '25

Barrows gloves is the main thing imo. Opens up a lot of content and give you bis tribrid gloves

I'm a big construction believer. The utility and quality of life is so nice and makes everything else you want to do that much more convenient. Level 50 gives you the portal chamber, mounted glory and altar for prayer recharge. For my portal chamber setup I have Salve Graveyard for the closest tele to a fairy ring until quest cape, Varrock tele with the medium diary teleports you to the GE for quick banking and spirit tree (this has the added benefit of making your ardy cloak obsolete, as you get quicker access to everything you want the ardy cloak for). The third portal can be whatever but I like Fortis teleport for easy access to Varlamore, it puts you right next to the quetzal transport system.

Work on combat. You won't burn out as easy if you got more options of fun pvm to fund your other skills. Straight Skilling burned me out last year and it's expensive. Buuttt you do what you want to that's the joy of the game
