At one point I saw pubbies discussing the finer points of when it's morally okay to rape someone :smithicide:

Also good to see the cheevo banner folks still trolling the awful lrc crowd. You should grab a clan vexillum and start slapping it down as close to the Rocktail spots as you can. It makes pubbies ridiculously angry, and gently caress lrc pubbies forever

For those inclined to unfair assistance, the Harps in Prfid are autoclickerable as hell. Grab the murgee autoclicker, set it to 1 minute per click, then click "Extra Random Delay" and punch in 30 seconds. It'll click once every 60 to 90 seconds, just like a real person doing semi-afk Harp. Most importantly, it's a bit of software I've been using for months and won't get you banned. Every week I do my Citadel cooking by setting this thing to click every 20 seconds with a 2 second extra random delay, and set it to click 245 times, and let it do its thing for an hour and a half. I don't even bother babysitting it anymore, I set it up before I go to bed, turn my monitor off, and hit the sack.

I've been autoclicking the harps literally all day today while I study for exams - gonna have my Crystal Hatchet done soon.

Also to make fun of them a ton for calling this unrealistic when the Advanced Barbarian Course has you get launched by a loving ballista. The Prfid course is pretty much a larger-than-life version of parkour.

To be fair the XP from Prfid scales with level and is about double his numbers at 97 agi. Prfid is definitely the best agi XP in the game by the time you get there. I mostly just like it because the clickboxes aren't goddamned miniscule and the animations are cool.

For SafetyThird

Et voila, no mouse movement, I can click all the ivy. Just takes a little ingenuity!

Found a better Ivy Shenanigans setup. The problem with Falador is that implings wander by and take priority over the Ivy clickbox. I woke up this morning with a Bass in my inventory. I caught a Gourmet impling while I slept, and if the timing had lined up badly and it had dragged me away from the Ivy I would have just clicked my way across Runescape for a few hours and it would have been really obvious that I was autoclicking. With this, there's no implings to be had. And the way I have it setup, even if all the Ivy exhausts, the mouse is over nothing and it wont walk if you click when all the Ivy is gone. Also, I checked and the elf heads never obscure the ivy so you don't have to worry about that. You just get the ivy lined up just right as I have there and put your mouse right up at the top of the Ivy and let it do its thing. Preferably on an unpopulated world where there aren't fuckers chopping down the Ivy that you've clearly lain stake too.

Elf city thieving has gone from great to magical with the addition of the other four clans. Once you get to like 93 or 94 Thieving you have enough people to steal from that you can do it basically nonstop and it's great.

Edit:

Hey guys. Remember Barbass, that thing I've been raving about how good the XP is?

IT JUST GOT BETTER. :pcgaming: YOU CAN MAKE MONEY TRAINING AGILITY WITH BARBASS. :pcgaming:

Word around the water cooler in the Barbass FC is that Wave 7 Hard Mode tickets sell for 500k+, anywhere from 500k-700k to upwards of 1.2 Mill. Yeah idgi but pubs are dumb and I'm happy to fleece them rampantly. So, if YOU want to make money while you get firemaking, agility, and mining bonus XP, I'm planning to do a ton of Barbass November 22nd and 23rd. I can't atm because I have quals on the 20th and 21st, but as soon as I'm done with the study crunch from hell (I've probably studied over 60 hours so far this week) then we're gonna make money.

Yah seriously. You can rob dumb shits going for 120 Agi out of millions of gold while also making 77 Agi for quests hurt literally half as much.


Also, having sent in a brave goon to be a guinea pig, I can now recommend the Barbass tutorial if you haven't played the game or need to refresh on what's going on. Ask in clan chat for a normal mode run if you haven't killed the Queen since Hard Mode got added, and be ready to run waves 1-6 (which is super easy and still pays lots of bxp) and sell Wave 7 tickets for LOADSAMONEY

Also Goonscape will help accelerate you past as much of the bullshit as possible. Liiike clan citadel! It's a thing you can go do menial tasks in for buckets and buckets of XP (even without the promise of pay, it's worth doing), and if you max out your contribution for the week (takes an hour or two) then talk to Pizza Lady (Themata here on the forums) and she'll toss 500k at you each week you do citadel. It's a really good chunk of seed money to jump you past the horrible "oh god I have to save up 40k for a rune pick that will take me a week" stage of being a newbie.

I'm gonna be trying to put together hardass barbass runs basically all day. Some normal runs will happen to get people attuned for hardass mode, but I'm primarily just going to be chewing through waves 1-6 over and over as fast as I can. There's money to be made and bxp in lovely skills to be had.

More Barbass stuff! This time, :pcgaming: HARDASS BARBASS :pcgaming:

So Hard Mode changes some things! And makes it harder! Who'd have thought?

Things you need for Hard Mode:

80+ Combat (100+ makes it a lot easier), 130+ if you want to be an attacker
Shield for non-attackers, lvl 75+ gear for attackers (has to be ranged or magic, melee in HM is terrible)
Level 5 Healer

As you might guess, in Hard Mode the combat Penance don't gently caress around. They hit really, really hard. Additionally, Healer poison hurts more, and when Runners are fed the incorrect food, they deal heavy AOE damage around them.


So, tactical changes:

Defender - largely the same as Normal Mode. Just don't get too close to the Runners. Once you kill all your Runners, head to the left cannon and spray eggs at things.
Healer - Focus on keeping people alive. If everyone's fine and dandy and your vial is full, toss some poison food at things, but generally goddamn focus on keeping people alive and not taking heavy damage. You should be camped out on the left cannon platform a lot
Collector- largely the same as Normal Mode. First thing to do is sprint to the left cannon, load your starter eggs, and fire a green egg at both of your attackers and your defender. It gives the attackers an Overload's worth of statboosts, and gives your Defender multiple logs to keep their trap repaired. After that focus on not taking damage while you grab eggs. It's acceptable to be a coward and hide on the platform for extended periods of time, it makes the Healer's life easier.
Attacker - probably the most finesse-able role in hard mode, you want to round up all of the penance fighters and rangers and get them aggroed and drag them down to in front of the cannon so you can AOE them down while safe from the fighters. You need to juggle how much damage you're taking, getting aggro from your people (who need to not be idiots and drag the penance all across the arena), and trying to blast apart rangers as best you can while you juggle poo poo because they suck and are ranged.

Finally, the Penance King in wave 10. Honestly, gently caress this guy. Reset after you complete Wave 9 and sell your Wave 10 ticket for an easy 500k. He's not worth the ridiculous effort he takes.


In general, everyone but the Defender should either hug the left cannon or stay on it, and focus on taking as little damage as possible. Defender should stay nice and far to the right where they can do their thing without aggroing fighters and rangers. Where Normal Mode is 'blow through every wave as fast as possible without ever really worrying about HP' in Hard Mode you need to actually put in some effort to stay alive.

Even botting my way from 75 to 97, doing only challenges for 98, then doing Prfid course (with BXP) to 99 that skill was painful as gently caress. They legit need to double or triple the base agi xp gain to make it remotely not terrible.
