I can appreciate the wanting to do the smoldering stone, but it’s such a meme drop rate. Don’t wanna see you hate your life just for a meme grind. Plus I’d say it directly falls into the “stopping progress” category. IMO. (That and the draconic visage, even if not as bad of a drop)
The visage is right on the edge, but how is the Smoldering Stone not clearly a meme grind? The topic of meme grinds even came up in a previous episode. Maybe I’m weak, but even the 1/10k visage drop seems like a meme grind.
Drops aren't considered meme grinds. If he had to get 99 smithing by killing dwarves for ores and bars or something like that, that would be a meme grind.
@EresirThe1st Thats wild. I consider that shit a meme grind even as a main account. Especially when taking into account the max kills per hour of these mobs.
Love the lock and key analogy. It can be really hard to visualize the insane grinds that are ahead and that was a great way of representing how they might be tackled.
@@hardup9809 Also ardy furnace was cited as death chunk just for being like a few chunks away from khazard bank. Not due to lack of resources and having to acquire ores through a very inconsistent method like implings or anything. Like??? It's his series and he can say it's not a grind he wants to do but calling it a death chunk is just dumb
1:17 When you said "Thankfully, for me, ...", I have been so conditioned by integrated ads that I expected you to talk about a food box service 4:48 Yeah, like that!
When he was talking about "lock and key" chunks I thought the whole point was that he'd postpone death tasks until he got a "key", but I guess that was just for demonstration rather than a rules change.
Idea: Consider the modified, actually useful items (Dragonfire shield and an Infernal Whatever) the chunk task, rather than the Visage and Stone. Then you need Lumbridge and started DS1 for the former and a boss like KQ for the latter, giving you more leeway. (AutoCorrect had that as "Dragonite Shield" at first)
Im sure that youve thought about this already, but I wanted to recommend that you get your agility level up first. The amount of time youll save from the run around will probably amount to dozens, if not hundreds of hours by the time this is done
@sysyteplus2622 and people who work a standard 40 hr work week dont? 90 100 kph He should expect a two month grind, he already puts out videos every 4-8 weeks
28:40 Actually there is a potential use for the black knights here. They're a good spot for attaining the White Knight Master rank once you get to the point you can start unlocking it in the Wanted! quest. Of course by the time that happens you'll have way better things to be doing, but if you have to engage in that little side grind then you have options!
I gotta say that I love the fact that Josh's audio quality is very well balanced and it always sounds really nice in this series. As a musician, I respect that.
Young dumplings have a bowstring as a 1/10 drop, and I'm sure he has an impling spawn in one of his chunks, or at least close enough for the impling to wander in.
Implings have been banned from the start. It bypasses all wacky problemsolving like using the Yanille food shop. Besides, with a Puro Puro portal in Yanille itself he'd be trapped there still, probably.
Josh, I have been having a really bad day today and I just wanted you to know that your content makes a difference. You helped make my awful day better with your cheer and fun facts. Please don't give up on your grind! I know it will be hard, but I believe that you can do it. Thank you so much
I have no idea if this works but if you're juggling hard clues from the hellhounds. you might be able to drop the clue on one side of the agility shortcut and telegrab it from the other side. might be quicker i dunno
Man I've been on YT for like 15 years and I've never been so hyped to watch a video, I love your energy and the way you are progressing with this making it so fun and easy to follow, but the best part is the music, it's FIRE! Keep it up!
Had to do a bit more research on my previous comment - I think you're safe on the 83 crafting grind because of the lack of thread and lack of redwood to make any of the black dragon equipment, but wouldn't you need to make at minimum a Blue D'Hide Shield? Blue Dragon Leather at the Ranging guild tanner, a Yew shield (from a Yew tree seed), and mithril nails (with superheat) - that would be a 69 (Nice) Crafting grind, at least it's not 83!
for a bowstring, couldn't you get a young impling spawning in the overworld? you have 71 hunter afterall and you have lured monsters from outside your chunk before.
@@FoodIsCrack Correct, he stopped lamping at 26 to come to the decision and then did Birds, Butterflies and Larupia till 71 to catch a regular imp. Episode: "I rolled a chunk with a massive problem"
when I was like 10, I would post up in the GE adding pineapple to pizzas for xp + profit, it was pretty good for f2p. my older cousin's boyfriend came in & asked what I was playing, so I explained to him what RuneScape was about, and what I was doing. he thought for a minute & then asked, "...so you're playing a medieval fantasy game and you've decided to work in a pizza shop?" I felt so owned
well, if you get the smoldering stone on 1st kill, You will be force to get 1 kill mob/boss (even if it outside chunk) and only once for either d pick/harp/axe, and if not you high alch the smoldering stone. (will break rules of chunk lock in pursuit of lucky drop punishment)
Its not applicable right now since you're lacking a spinning wheel and a nearby bank, but not many people know that Taverly has Flax in the southwest corner of the town.
Fun fact, back in the day of members release, they didnt have a check on logging into f2p worlds in members area. Instead it would make the area a sea so you cant do anything lol, not sure how quickly they added the check for it
Funny thing about Taverley, while OSRS spell it with an e, the teleport menu for the clue compass in Leagues spells it the classic way. Obviously a mistake but it's funny how at one point it wouldn't have been.
damn man, thats one hell of a grind. Do hope you get some positive luck your way! but good job on looking at the positives that come with the challenge as well :D! best of luck and looking forward to the next one.
mannn i remember the feeling of getting to walk through that gate for the first time when i finally got members :D omggg this brought back some memorys for sure good luck in this chunk man love following the series
Can't that dude in the dark tower teleport you to Lumbridge swamp? If you make that rollable it might lower you chances of getting another death chunk.
You can safe spot the black dragons in the room with the monks too only need two tiles, with it being in singles sometimes you can get them stacked on top of each other and use a halberd
Keep up with the great content Josh! I wonder can't you use the uncut dragonstones to make a ring of wealth so you have a better chance at those rare drops?
Bro! You got this death chunk! Keep it up! I look forward to your videos so much and love watching your RS content! You can do this bro! Go off you GD king!

Holy moly is my second fav chuck series
2026 oof lol
Did someone say Smouldering Stone?
This guy gets it
Can't wait to see 50 trillion hard clues on the ground, Im expecting the entire hell hounds room to have at least one clue per tile
That'll probably be the only way he'll get a magic shortbow and d'hide armor.
Why not bring a summer pie to go through the pipe? Would save you quite the runaround.
Should probably save those for when he rolls ardy

Yeah but, there is literally 0 point to a chunkman series that just skips every actual grind.
He's already skipped a pretty questionable amount.
The visage is right on the edge, but how is the Smoldering Stone not clearly a meme grind? The topic of meme grinds even came up in a previous episode. Maybe I’m weak, but even the 1/10k visage drop seems like a meme grind.
Drops aren't considered meme grinds. If he had to get 99 smithing by killing dwarves for ores and bars or something like that, that would be a meme grind.
Meme grinds are like 1/1m not 1/32k lmao.
@EresirThe1st Thats wild. I consider that shit a meme grind even as a main account. Especially when taking into account the max kills per hour of these mobs.
9:35 Why on earth is there no animation for making a pizza base it’s like the most iconic IRL cooking maneuver in history!
They just need to take the plank make lunar spell animation and replace the plank with a spinning pizza base
Love the lock and key analogy. It can be really hard to visualize the insane grinds that are ahead and that was a great way of representing how they might be tackled.
Mierkus doing it, why can't he? Verf does it why can't he? Fray does it why can't he?

i still think the smouldering stone is only reasonable if you can kill cerberus or you have dragon tools.

Dragonite shield is called multiscale.

smoldering stone is a meme grind with no bank no way of sustaining and high drop rate. Shelve it
Mierkus doing it, why can't he? Verf does it why can't he? Fray does it why can't he?
@@hardup9809 cause going insane isn't everyones style???
especially from a content standpoint shelving a grind like this makes much more sense

@sysyteplus2622 id rather rot away at home playing rs for a job vs rot away at a company desk hating life
Bank and sustain don't matter for an enemy with no drops that's safespottable.
finally my favorite chuck series
finally my favorite yeet series
I love a good Josh vid, that chunk roll is a pure killer but I know you’ll crack it mate

That might very well become a chunk task later on.
that black knight fortress in the Taverley dungeon is a decent place to get your temple knight rank up
wait a second, aren't the zammy robes uniques you should get from the monks of zammy?
Born too late to explore the world.
Born too early to explore the galaxy.
Born just in time to see that Josh is, in fact, gaming.
2:44 WHAT? NINE THOUSAND!? There's no way that can be right!
I gotta say that I love the fact that Josh's audio quality is very well balanced and it always sounds really nice in this series. As a musician, I respect that.
Well if a young impling shows up maybe a bowstring?
Implings have been banned since the start, or we'd be trapped in Puro-Puro with all the other onechunkers still, ha.
Young dumplings have a bowstring as a 1/10 drop, and I'm sure he has an impling spawn in one of his chunks, or at least close enough for the impling to wander in.

If you really want a magic shortbow, can't you clue juggle hard clues?
It's nice to see you put a positive spin on what is going to be an arduous grind. You got this, you managed trawler chunk, nothing can stop you.

Spinachroll best item.
Also, his name was kryme. The guy that kept glitching the crystal chest. Forever on the ignore list.
for a bowstring, couldn't you get a young impling spawning in the overworld? you have 71 hunter afterall and you have lured monsters from outside your chunk before.
He's not doing implings, yanille has puro puro access but he decided against that grind to keep things fresh
He locked off implings till Zanaris to keep progression tied to the chunks he has unlocked.
@@XinderkanYeah but making it a requirement isn't the same as being able to do it. Has he actually not caught a single impling this whole time?
@@FoodIsCrack Correct, he stopped lamping at 26 to come to the decision and then did Birds, Butterflies and Larupia till 71 to catch a regular imp.
Episode: "I rolled a chunk with a massive problem"
hey work will be 45min late something came up
Been playing since 2002 and only now have I realized that it's Taverley and not Taverly. It looks so wrong with the extra E and I can't unsee it.
Time to pretend it's G.G. and head to Taverly to play prophunt with Josh to provide the odd distraction from the grind :p
when I was like 10, I would post up in the GE adding pineapple to pizzas for xp + profit, it was pretty good for f2p. my older cousin's boyfriend came in & asked what I was playing, so I explained to him what RuneScape was about, and what I was doing. he thought for a minute & then asked, "...so you're playing a medieval fantasy game and you've decided to work in a pizza shop?" I felt so owned
what you FAILED to realise is that you would lose a number subscribers by adding that pineapple to pizza!! ( i would never do that josh)
well, if you get the smoldering stone on 1st kill, You will be force to get 1 kill mob/boss (even if it outside chunk) and only once for either d pick/harp/axe, and if not you high alch the smoldering stone. (will break rules of chunk lock in pursuit of lucky drop punishment)
Bro the Add was so well placed that you deserve the like dude, It kept me in the story of the video. Nice.
This grind definitely deserves a sub, Gl brother
Surely charging a fire orb / making a fire battlestaff is also a task?
You would need access to battlestaves for that, which I don't think he has.
@@brianb.6356also no furnace to make glass
I love the new manscaped electric chair man
One of the best chunk series atm. Great stuff.
i was just thinking about this series! this is crazy! ty for the upload
Dude I haven't been this excited for new videos from a YT series in forever. its weird
Life Before Death-Chunk, Radiant
I really think you should do the lock and key thing! I like that idea. It's also a prevention against a potentially brutal burnout.
GL Josh!
I have killed a fair number of hell hounds. I have only gotten one smouldering stone ever. I almost missed it too, half asleep AFK.
Its not applicable right now since you're lacking a spinning wheel and a nearby bank, but not many people know that Taverly has Flax in the southwest corner of the town.
Fun sweet corn fact: it’s an extremely lightweight food 0.028kg per piece and is handy “running around food” noticed this years ago.
Fun fact, back in the day of members release, they didnt have a check on logging into f2p worlds in members area. Instead it would make the area a sea so you cant do anything lol, not sure how quickly they added the check for it
TWO CHUNK VIDS ONE DAY!?!
These videos have become a highlight for me each month!
Rip to Josh. We don’t know what he was doing, but he wasn't gaming.
8:38 holy shit dude the one chunk brain is too powerful
Funny thing about Taverley, while OSRS spell it with an e, the teleport menu for the clue compass in Leagues spells it the classic way. Obviously a mistake but it's funny how at one point it wouldn't have been.
My gf has been asking me "when is a new chunky video coming out?" Our prayers have been answered
Lock and key would turn the uniqueness of One chunk into normal Runescape.
The Seers' Village love is real, I can't wait for the day you get it!
damn man, thats one hell of a grind. Do hope you get some positive luck your way! but good job on looking at the positives that come with the challenge as well :D! best of luck and looking forward to the next one.
I just got done grinding this series this week, and im so glad to see another episode is out already!!@
just to note, you can also safe stop the black dragons behind the ladder as they cannot walk past it
summer pie boost for agility....
Thank you Mr. Chunk "Yanille" Man Josh for another great episode of chunky content. Good luck with the grinds:)
mannn i remember the feeling of getting to walk through that gate for the first time when i finally got members :D omggg this brought back some memorys for sure good luck in this chunk man love following the series
DRUID ROBES??? Goddamn even after so many years does this game have some surprises!
Right as I was looking for another vid to watch! LET’S GO!
i get so hyped every time you post bro you make the best osrs videos out there rn
Reminder that a Rune Plateskirt is OBJECTIVELY better than Rune Platelegs because they weigh 0.907kg less
When will josh start gaming?
Can't that dude in the dark tower teleport you to Lumbridge swamp? If you make that rollable it might lower you chances of getting another death chunk.
Yeah thats what I said last episode. Not sure why it isnt added
Many chunk accounts stuck on low droprate grinds rn
That stone dropping from hellhounds feels more like a joke drop than anything else.
Fantastic production as usual
1/32k seems like a meme grind idk
NOT THE DEATH CHUNK NOOOOO
Josh uploaded!?! MY DAY OFF IS OFFICIALLY MADE.
Technically if you can juggle hard clues, you can get a magic shortbow drop from them!
Maybe the real treasure was the fun Yanille facts we learned along the way.
Babe wake up, Josh isn’t gaming again!!
Smoldering stone is clearly a meme grind
You can probably get a magic shortbow from juggling hard clue scrolls sometime down the line, it's just 1/27! :)
You can safe spot the black dragons in the room with the monks too only need two tiles, with it being in singles sometimes you can get them stacked on top of each other and use a halberd
Well, it is beyond shadow of a doubt now
He most definitely cook-a da pizza
“Chunk, you make vids?” If only that guy knew😂.
2:41
There is an obligatory reference to be made here…
You said it not me 😳
in the time i watched this video on release you got 1k likes. best of luck on the 100k grind josh
i feel like you can cath young implings in the overworld for the bow string. you should def have some impling spawns in your chunks by now
Yay! With leagues bringing a new level of sweatiness from various other creators, i have been counting days to have a break with some Chunkyanille!
Keep up with the great content Josh! I wonder can't you use the uncut dragonstones to make a ring of wealth so you have a better chance at those rare drops?
Bro! You got this death chunk! Keep it up! I look forward to your videos so much and love watching your RS content! You can do this bro! Go off you GD king!
🙏🙏
@ you’re a king
Let’s gooo, new josh drop!
We will be with you on the road! Cool to see the keys being of use too!
50.47777777 hours of cheese making in that bank.
Josh's girlfriend is going to leave him over this death chunk lol
so i looked up it will take my character till lvl 90 making scarecrows 205k of scarecrows. and thats only lvl 90
