Muggers (15+) and Pirates (25+) in the Asgarnia Ice Dungeon south of Port Sarim are decent for training since they are a lot less crowded, and there's also hobgoblins further into the caves!
As a former hardcore wow player 15 years ago I appreciate this. Just getting back into non console gaming and some friends play runescape. Plus its mobile so I can play it in bed when the wife sleeps lol. Going to try your advice now. Thanks much!
I'm coming back to OSRS after ... Many years ... and, I'm not stupid. I understand the basics, yet you were able to explain things in a way that I didn't feel bad for not knowing them. Everything was simple to understand, easy to follow, and the markings on the maps were very helpful. Thank you for making, what I consider, a perfectly accurate and user friendly guide. I have liked this, and subscribed. I look forward to seeing your other guide videos!
they also drop parts for a staff with free teleports to barbarian village. usefull for teleporting closer to falador compared to the book u get from diango.
I do not believe platebody is always superior to the chainbody. Many f2p creatures such as giants use crush attack and chainbodies have a higher crush defence bonus. Nice vid tho!
If for whatever reason you have 43 prayer in f2p (I do because I trained my prayer up on p2p) you can just take a scimitar (Wouldn’t reccomend anything below rune), an amulet and go to the demonic ruins in like level 47 wilderness. Since the ruins restore prayer points faster than praying melee drains them you can stay there forever and you would never have to take damage. The place is rarely visited by f2p players and if even so you won’t lose any items if you would die because you only have your scimitar and amulet.
Loma GGG greater demons, drop rune full helm, you can also wear monk robes and holy symbol and pray protect melee and one of either superhuman strength or improved reflexes and still not drain prayer
Rune platebody is a garbage item that nobody should ever own in f2p. You should do dragon slayer for the green d hide body however. Chain is better in 100% of circumstances. Rune chain and d hide chaps is the most efficient f2p armour-on pking style with ranged however. Members should own a rune plate for hard clues, if you dont do them then its useless again. Torso and rune chain are still better on p2p.
This is a problem... I’m f2p, been playing for a week or so. I have all my stats (except prayer at 12) up to 35 now, full mithril set but can’t kill that dragon. I only get him down to about half health before I run out of food (swordfish/lobster) and teleport out or die. Watched quite a few of tutorials. Brought a sword because she’s weak to stab. Do everything like in the tutorial but never even get close. No idea what I’m doing wrong...
@@soupfork2105 well mithril set is really not going to help you fight him... save some money up and lvl ur attack and def to 40 and buy rune armor... then everything will be a piece of cake
awesome video mate helped me a lot im new to old school runescape never in my life played any type of runescape before but finally giving it a go and loving it so far! I was really confused Ive been using an iron armor and scimitar and am lvl 30 and didnt know what to from here haha but now it all makes sense! Thank you liked and subbed
Been playing RS since 2004. Came back after years for mobile. Your video is amazing at explaining and helping me ease back into the game as well as understand game mechanics and formulas!
clicking defensive adds a hidden +3 defense :D also train defense to 5 first. wear steel. now go kill monks left of edgeville. enjoy afk leveling to 40 defense with ease. then do attack and then str. carefull to not go above a iron weapon so u dont kill him faster than he can heal.
One thing i haven't heard anyone talk about is to take advatage of your natural hp regen. Like i will train my mining and smithing when hp is low then back to strength training when hp maxes out and back and forth.
I realize this is an unpopular opinion, but imo Attack is the priority melee skill when training, followed by Defense and then Strength. Attack is the top because neither of the other two would have any effect if you couldn't even hit the enemy. Once you have a consistent rate to hit, you can go and level up strength to increase max hit, but before that you need Defense so you can survive longer without needing to get more food. Strength also takes last priority because ATK and DEF scale with equipment while STR is just a flat increase, and because max hit is increased by weapons anyways. In terms of moment to moment combat though, I agree that STR has priority, it's just when you're grinding, it's the least important.
Another thing you are wrong about is always wanting a platebody depends on where you are training platebody is good but chainbody is also good for stuff against crush.. Which is a lot of monsters that free to players go against mainly Giants.
Chickens 1-10>cows 10-20, minotaurs 20-30, higher level minotaurs 30-40, hill giants 40-60, but theyre way too crowded and you will want to do something else for better xp. Minotaurs and flesh crawlers are fine until 60 melee stats, then moss giants are decent in varrock sewers at 50, better at 60.
Richard If you’re just starting on mobile it would be best to get the 7 day member trial and do waterfall quest,fight arena,tree gnome village, and monkey madness
Plateskirts are better, they give the same stats and are actually lighter than platelegs. Same as normal capes, they give the same stats as team capes but they're lighter.
if you're getting strength, attack, or defense up... you should be using amulet of strength it gives you a slightly better buff than aop but if you have a mixed build of melee and (whatever combat style you like) then use aop.
For magic you can buy the best magic gear right off the bat relatively inexpensively (black or blue wizard hat and robes, zamorak robe bottom, elemental staff of choice, usually fire). You can cast fire strikes all the way up to 50 tbh, but if you can afford chaos runes, jumping up to the next level of fire spell may be advisable. It starts to get expensive very quickly though, and no training method in f2p will make you back the money fast enough at lower levels. You can kill the same monsters as melees, however I wouldn't recommend hobgoblins, as I don't think you can safespot. Basically as soon as you unlock fire strike, you can go to hill Giants and train there til 50. After 50, ogresses are best because of better drops, but exp may be slower.
For range, you'll always want to equip the best leather armor available (leather -> studded -> green dragonhide). Always use the best shortbow available at your level. Shortbows give faster experience compared to longbows. Don't wear metal armor while training range, as it gives negative range bonuses that will reduce your damage effectively. For affordable training, iron arrows are best, but adamant is best for exp rates at higher level (but is expensive). I'd recommend cows or chickens til 5 range, Minotaurs (the lower level ones) til 25-30, then hill Giants til 50-60. If you plan on training more after that, ogresses for profits. As with magic, you should be using safe spots to avoid taking damage while training. Not having to bring food means you can take more loot back to the bank when necessary.
Final note, magic can be trained without combat, and may even be cheaper or more efficient at times. Look up "curse splashing" for a cheap albeit click-intensive way of training magic quickly at low levels. At higher levels, you can try superheating ore or high level alchemy, albeit those methods are usually at a loss (you can make miniscule profits off high alchemy if you know what you're doing, but the economy isn't great for that right now due to the influx of new players inflating prices). Of ranging and magic, ranging is probably cheaper to train, but magic is arguably more useful due to teleports and such. By the way, DO NOT spam teleports to train magic. It's not especially fast, and it's insanely expensive for 0 returns. You're way better off with basically any other method of magic training.
Wow that pretty much what i did for rs3. Before the hill giants i would do wizards in front of varrok. Then to the black gaurds and finally stopped playing.
What about monks in edgeville? You can literally train until 40 here from level 1. They do little to no damage, have 15 and heal themselves occasionally so you’re getting more than 15 hp. I’ve trained here from 5 and I’m at 34 att, star and def and have only spent maybe 5 hours. Oh and not to mention after 10 def or so you don’t even need armor. Just a scim and power ammy.
Its weird...its like 2021 and i have a potato pc...and i'm new to osrs. All the other guides were like (GET THIS SWORD YOU HAVEN'T HEARD IN YOUR LIFE AND..AND...AND) you went (first do that then that and these stats do that) thank you soooo much
How to train your melee stats in f2p. Buy members, quest. If you want to make a bond for members from scratch ignore melee and skill+merch for the money then quest on members for your combat exp. If for some reason you are doing a f2p only challenge you arent watching this vid.
I came back after looking at the combat calculator. If you never train strength max hit is 2 + amulet of power, strength potion and anythig else that add strength points.
Thanks like my god. I used to play so well when my brother and two cousins were.playing on their laptops with me. I usually help them train and show them routes and such cuz I was already at adamant armor and they were at steel so I needed to help them alot on how to level certain things cuz they are slow learners
Actually Plateskirt weighs less KG than Platelegs, same def stats, but different weight, you can run longer with plateskirt fam, plateskirt is therefore better
Also I want to mention never really train defense through melee combat.. Train it through magic and range simply because strength and attack hit more frequently then the defense. Also it saves you time from having to train the skill in the future and range also magic is both semi-afk. While melee is completely afk for 20 mins.. Problem with that though is you will definitely get 99 range and defense at the same time.. Just a slower wait time for hits that's why training another account on the side is fun to do while you train your main.
With magic you will be left with around 2.4 million experience in defense and 99 magic. Also it affects nothing through hits and speed casting. So you would really just want to do magic for quick defensive levels.
50-70 moss Giants, 70+ ogresses if you want decent drops. By that point you'll either need to be mastering advanced techniques like prayer flicking to maximize efficiency, or just buy members and expand the game tenfold with a ton of extra content that's way more fun and engaging for high level training. I'd only recommend staying f2p past 50 melees if you've played both f2p and p2p and for some reason you're masochistic enough to prefer f2p. If you don't want to pay real money for membership, you can earn a bond by doing other skilling methods like crafting, mining, and telegrabbing to get the money. Then it's just a matter of maintaining profits in p2p, which is a lot easier, so you can keep buying bonds.
come to think of it, defence kinda reduces accuracy, not damage, same goes with armour, except for the elysian spirit shield. unless i am wrong, please feel free to correct me.
I get what you're saying. And i completly agree. As you dont take as much damage, you dont eat as much, and in theory, you can kill more shit in the time of 1 second. Increasing your overall dps. But what i was trying to say, was defence decreases the chance, that an enemy will hit you, unless its hard-coded to have 100% accuracy or something similar.
@@martso9288 Oh for sure this is true. Attack and str kind of increase defence aswell. If something dies in 3 hits it only hits you twice, then you spend time looting/eating/burying bones plus you are guaranteed to hit first on next target. This means that at higher atk/str enemies hit you less often too! Its symbiotic really. At any rate, in most f2p cases once youre at 40/40/40 strength is by far the most valuable thing to train, cant remember the exact numbers but at 65 atk+defence you should be aiming for approximately 83 str. Its the point at which you damage increases by 1 with attack and defensive styles. Every time your damage increases by 1 you grab a couple of atk/def lvls as free. After 60/65 attack and def are rendered fairly useless as they dont affect your training speed due to enemy monsters being designed for low levels. If you end up going to ankous then theres a reasonable need to get 75's but ogresses are fine with 65 and have better drops. Ankous are more afk and better xp/hr
@@taymor4663 giant spiders in the stronghold of security, or moss giants, but moss giants aren't really afkable, but good money. Oh, and you can also kill ogress in the corsair cove, but I suggest you ranged them. Unless you're like 70+ in each melee CB skill. You can mage them, but that's slower. They also drop good items such as rune full helms, and rune b-axes...
@@taymor4663 this is mainly a f2p guide, so he doesn't go into higher levels because there aren't any other better methods for f2p other than the ones that got you to level 40 in the first place.
o yeah defence is like this. on 50 defence u got around 25% damage reduction. armour helps quite alot as well. magic levels also help in defense. 50 magic reduces magic damage taken by 25% i found this out the hard way when some bosses devastated me. and also explained why mages and dark wizards still hit like a truck until i trained it to around 25/30.
also hobgoblins are more dangerous than hill giants. they hit alot harder :( ur better off checking moss giants in varock sewers. all the way in the back. or if u wanna earn money low level hunt goblins and cows and sell the goblin mails and cowhides.
Def doesn't lower max hit, and magic is also, a def stat against magic attacks (70%). Also, you can hit higher than 1 damage with 1 strength, if you have higher attack and use better weapons. Still not recommended though.
Where can I buy the iron set though? I’m currently grinding chicken, selling feathers, burying bones, mining tin/copper, smelting bronze, smithing scimitars, selling scimitars. Basically leveling smithing, combat, prayer and making some money while leveling The only thing I know is that at some point i should do the waterfall mission, no idea where it is or when i‘ll be ready to do it
Why when I level up my defence my overall level increase quickly? For example my defence level is 1 and my level is 25 when my defence become 2 I’ll be 26 but when another skill levelled up that didn't happen ?
I had Iron stuff but then a nice player literally gave me A GOLD TRIMMED MITHRIL SET I bought the mithril scimitar tho i know the gold trimmed version just looks cooler but It's a member set

Much improved video for new players, however an improvement would be to add a content page with time stamps for the sections.
So technically...keeping your str evenly leveled up with attack is actually gonna hurt your hp exp?
I always keep my strength about 10 levels higher than my attack as much as possible

For magic you can buy the best magic gear right off the bat relatively inexpensively (black or blue wizard hat and robes, zamorak robe bottom, elemental staff of choice, usually fire). You can cast fire strikes all the way up to 50 tbh, but if you can afford chaos runes, jumping up to the next level of fire spell may be advisable. It starts to get expensive very quickly though, and no training method in f2p will make you back the money fast enough at lower levels.

I hate to be that guy, but it’s pronounced may-lay
I know way too many people that mispronounce melee 😞
i had 30 attack 34 strenght went down there and lost 20K gold, full set of mithril and a adamant scimiter thanks bud ^^
hahahaha
lol rekt
How to train your melee stats in f2p. Buy members, quest. If you want to make a bond for members from scratch ignore melee and skill+merch for the money then quest on members for your combat exp. If for some reason you are doing a f2p only challenge you arent watching this vid.
What about players who are just joining the game ? Not everything is about maximum effiecncy, games are meant to be fun too.
I came back after looking at the combat calculator. If you never train strength max hit is 2 + amulet of power, strength potion and anythig else that add strength points.
I always gonna use two-handed idc what anyone says

Whats the point, the dps is lower, you have no good reasoning for that.

Chickens are f2ps fastest just wear nothing and kill chickens to 40 all stats then sell feathers get rune
Anthony Doyle how much u make off them feathers?
I came here for 60 and beyond, kinda disappointed you didn't include that anyway... like maybe I want to max out before getting memebership
Are you planning to do one on range like this video I wonder if strength or attack has anything to do with range skill
Thanks like my god. I used to play so well when my brother and two cousins were.playing on their laptops with me. I usually help them train and show them routes and such cuz I was already at adamant armor and they were at steel so I needed to help them alot on how to level certain things cuz they are slow learners
thanks good guide
Actually Plateskirt weighs less KG than Platelegs, same def stats, but different weight, you can run longer with plateskirt fam, plateskirt is therefore better
Also I want to mention never really train defense through melee combat.. Train it through magic and range simply because strength and attack hit more frequently then the defense. Also it saves you time from having to train the skill in the future and range also magic is both semi-afk. While melee is completely afk for 20 mins.. Problem with that though is you will definitely get 99 range and defense at the same time.. Just a slower wait time for hits that's why training another account on the side is fun to do while you train your main.
With magic you will be left with around 2.4 million experience in defense and 99 magic. Also it affects nothing through hits and speed casting. So you would really just want to do magic for quick defensive levels.
Follow the same guide for range & Magic? Any chance you can do a 50+ training guide for when switching to members? Cheers
50-70 moss Giants, 70+ ogresses if you want decent drops. By that point you'll either need to be mastering advanced techniques like prayer flicking to maximize efficiency, or just buy members and expand the game tenfold with a ton of extra content that's way more fun and engaging for high level training. I'd only recommend staying f2p past 50 melees if you've played both f2p and p2p and for some reason you're masochistic enough to prefer f2p. If you don't want to pay real money for membership, you can earn a bond by doing other skilling methods like crafting, mining, and telegrabbing to get the money. Then it's just a matter of maintaining profits in p2p, which is a lot easier, so you can keep buying bonds.
i reckon once u are strong enough . train strength with varrock guards , maybe until u can one hitter them
come to think of it, defence kinda reduces accuracy, not damage, same goes with armour, except for the elysian spirit shield. unless i am wrong, please feel free to correct me.
Having higher defence indirectly increases your dps via not having to eat/bank so often.
I get what you're saying. And i completly agree. As you dont take as much damage, you dont eat as much, and in theory, you can kill more shit in the time of 1 second. Increasing your overall dps. But what i was trying to say, was defence decreases the chance, that an enemy will hit you, unless its hard-coded to have 100% accuracy or something similar.
@@martso9288 Oh for sure this is true. Attack and str kind of increase defence aswell. If something dies in 3 hits it only hits you twice, then you spend time looting/eating/burying bones plus you are guaranteed to hit first on next target. This means that at higher atk/str enemies hit you less often too! Its symbiotic really.
At any rate, in most f2p cases once youre at 40/40/40 strength is by far the most valuable thing to train, cant remember the exact numbers but at 65 atk+defence you should be aiming for approximately 83 str. Its the point at which you damage increases by 1 with attack and defensive styles. Every time your damage increases by 1 you grab a couple of atk/def lvls as free. After 60/65 attack and def are rendered fairly useless as they dont affect your training speed due to enemy monsters being designed for low levels. If you end up going to ankous then theres a reasonable need to get 75's but ogresses are fine with 65 and have better drops. Ankous are more afk and better xp/hr
Thank you so much!! :d
You'll hit more than 1's with 1 strength if your weapon gives bonuses......
you never hit 2's at 1 str with a scimitar. Not on f2p. Not at 1 attack.
With str ammy and rune 2h could hit 3's at lv 1 str :O

Thanks for the guide, any advice on getting the gold to be able to afford these items?

What about 50 to 99?
Surely if you're level 40+ you can figure that out yourself..
And if you listened at the end you would of known..
@@theflightlessbutdankkiwi3820 im asking the question because i dont know what to do after level 50 , im not hating why you mad sorry just a question
@@taymor4663 giant spiders in the stronghold of security, or moss giants, but moss giants aren't really afkable, but good money.
Oh, and you can also kill ogress in the corsair cove, but I suggest you ranged them. Unless you're like 70+ in each melee CB skill. You can mage them, but that's slower. They also drop good items such as rune full helms, and rune b-axes...
@@taymor4663 this is mainly a f2p guide, so he doesn't go into higher levels because there aren't any other better methods for f2p other than the ones that got you to level 40 in the first place.
o yeah defence is like this. on 50 defence u got around 25% damage reduction.
armour helps quite alot as well. magic levels also help in defense.
50 magic reduces magic damage taken by 25% i found this out the hard way when some bosses devastated me.
and also explained why mages and dark wizards still hit like a truck until i trained it to around 25/30.
also hobgoblins are more dangerous than hill giants. they hit alot harder :(
ur better off checking moss giants in varock sewers. all the way in the back.
or if u wanna earn money low level hunt goblins and cows and sell the goblin mails and cowhides.
Where i get iron amour
Lv22 at cows right now had to watch a video lol i need to level and kill that vampire at draynor
Def doesn't lower max hit, and magic is also, a def stat against magic attacks (70%). Also, you can hit higher than 1 damage with 1 strength, if you have higher attack and use better weapons. Still not recommended though.
Y did you not say black when you went over the armor
Honestly, I'd like more guides like this for RS3. The game is so disorienting and nauseating at this point.
Where can I buy the iron set though? I’m currently grinding chicken, selling feathers, burying bones, mining tin/copper, smelting bronze, smithing scimitars, selling scimitars.
Basically leveling smithing, combat, prayer and making some money while leveling
The only thing I know is that at some point i should do the waterfall mission, no idea where it is or when i‘ll be ready to do it
Grand exchange varrock
Thanks mate
In the skills my attack says 19 but when I go to my combat menu it says 13 what does this mean
are you gonna flip live monsters now?
Where can i buy items, or do i have to make the scimitars myself?
F2p 50-60 what do you recommend?
isn't the skirt better because of weight?
I have to run dragon slayer to wear my rune plate body. CL is ~50. think I can solo?
Why when I level up my defence my overall level increase quickly? For example my defence level is 1 and my level is 25 when my defence become 2 I’ll be 26 but when another skill levelled up that didn't happen ?
So what's the best gear setup for strength bonus
The chickens in Lumbridge have 50 hp not 3
Spiders are the best xp in f2p with 50hp
I had Iron stuff but then a nice player literally gave me A GOLD TRIMMED MITHRIL SET
I bought the mithril scimitar tho
i know the gold trimmed version just looks cooler but It's a member set
So rune equipment is the last tier for f2p?
I would say 5-10 is goblins lvl 2
