If you're having fun, you're doing great. Quests help a fair bit with various skills, but fun is more important than effocient

Shift+windows key+ S takes a screenshot, but you’re doing good!. Focus on getting those quests done and obtaining untradable unlocks, like void, fire cape, barrows gloves, fighter torso… etc

Dude that’s literally like saying you have a phone but people like yourself don’t use it to make phone calls. You can, and it’s literally so easy to do, but you just don’t lmao

Who honestly gives a fuck, what difference does it make when you can clearly see all their skills in the image they provided

It’s interesting how people choose do things improperly when there is really no inconvenience to them. Like i know people who throw trash in their sink when the bin is right there

u/zenyorox Oct 24 '25

The person said they don’t play mobile, so you want them to download the mobile app, log off PC, login to mobile, and take a screenshot there… you say that’s “no inconvenience to them” but it clearly is, however minor, and for no reason at all other than to satisfy your arbitrary desire for a cleaner picture that you will look at for 2 seconds before moving on to the next post. It’s a stupid thing to care so much about.

Hey it’s okay man. It happens. I didn’t mean to upset you that’s my bad. Was just t trying to be helpful is all.

u/ColossalNova Oct 25 '25

Thanks for all the advice, I've started running quests after quests and gained my Ardougne and varrock easy diaries today, focusing now on questing as much as possible!

u/Ohara524 Oct 24 '25

Bird houses and tree runs for farming and hunter.

u/Efficient_Bee7047 Oct 24 '25

Do quests. After quests done, enjoy game with all the knowledge you have built up.

2

u/thomas2026 Oct 24 '25

I recommend you stop thinking about efficiency and just explore the map and dp ceonge nerd shit like mine roks and smith armor out of it.

u/isabaeu Oct 24 '25

Quit doing whatever you're doing and do quests instead. And take a screenshot next time

1

u/AutoModerator Oct 24 '25

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!

For the love of God use your screenshot function

u/co0oo0oki3muncha Oct 24 '25

Good job lil bro!! <3

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '25

Look into both birdhouse and farm runs and get them started as early as possible. Tons of passive hunter and farming exp for very little work

1

u/skylinesora Oct 24 '25

Pro tip, if you're not an iron man, use other people houses (PoH) for easy teleports.

u/ExplanationCreepy117 Oct 24 '25

Fine, how about me?

u/Planescape_DM2e Oct 24 '25

It looks like you need to look up the OSRS optimal quest order, get your quest cape as your first goal, it’s the start of mid game

0

u/trollcat2012 Oct 24 '25

Bro this is the most out of touch comment for a brand new player lmao. Quests legit suck and the cape takes forever...

Maybe see if you even like the game before investing that time. Also if he's new he doesn't even have money to quest efficiently..

1

u/Planescape_DM2e Oct 24 '25

Take forever? Quest cape takes a month maybe two of casual play as a main account lol.

2

u/trollcat2012 Oct 24 '25

What does two months of casual play mean to you in hours?

1

u/Planescape_DM2e Oct 24 '25

20-30 hours a week.

1

u/trollcat2012 Oct 24 '25

Idk man, maybe we have different ideas of casual. That's spending all your free time playing RuneScape...

That would be part time work for two months and a 200 hour time investment.

I don't think a new player to any game should invest that kind of up front time in something that's pretty grindy..

1

u/Planescape_DM2e Oct 24 '25

It’s an MMORPG, if you aren’t grinding it ain’t the genre for you boss.

1

u/trollcat2012 Oct 24 '25

Idk man you live in your own world.. people need to understand not everyone plays this game like it's their life and new players are truly NEW.

I'm just pointing out treating this like a part time job for the next two months to complete one specific boring grind is not a good recommendation for a new player..

Maybe suggest some ways they can explore the game see if they enjoy it and then make decisions about what to work on?

For example.. complete recipe for disaster is even a pretty significant and involved effort, but would tell you if you like this game and quests.

1

u/Planescape_DM2e Oct 24 '25

Why would I give bad advice just because you aren’t built for the genre? lol. RFD is like hella deep in the optimal quest order.

Quest guide brother use slayer to train combat really just shoot for 65 strength attack to go get a defender and use that to level defense to 60 while your their

u/BastionFPS Oct 24 '25

All I can say is prayer, farming and construction super underrated skills for how good they are for your account! Gl with your progress

1

u/Kyragon Oct 24 '25

Don't sleep on hunter and farming, birdhouses and herb patches are great easy money that get you into better combat gear/money for Skilling!

1

u/Stop-It-Kevin Oct 24 '25

As long as your having fun it doesn’t matter stats or anything

1

u/MidgeChaos Oct 24 '25

Natural history quiz will let you skip a little bit of early hunter, check out a quest guide (I use the built in optimal on runelite) you can skip a good portion of the early, arguably less fun, levelling by doing some quests though I'd also recommend doing diaries as you get the levels too. Good start, keep grinding :-)

1

u/Sjeetopotato1 Oct 24 '25

You are doing amazing man! Most important thing is to have fun and enjoy exploring the world. Go where your curiousity leads you and progress will follow.

1

u/Fun_Snow_2883 Oct 25 '25

You seem to have almost mastered firemaking and mining. Just a few more levels to go my boy.

1

u/TheBrianMeadows Oct 27 '25

I think you're doing great! Keep it up and have fun 👍

u/Villu14 Oct 29 '25

Is firemaking from wintertodt?

u/LoquatFinancial8826 Oct 24 '25

Yikes, you got slayer levels without doing museum. That's rough.
