Hey, I'm a longtime Runescape player, but never took it seriously. My friends all want me to get into bossing, and you showing this linear challenge really helps. Keep the series going
honestly, I have to say: I love your content! you push through challenges that can be boring sometimes just to bring us entertainment!!! is a pleasure to watch your videos! Thank you very much for your work!!!
Unironically, this whole concept sounds super fun. The whole "targets for each boss to advance" system with rewards is super interesting. Might be biased as I ended up theorycrafting a combat achievement list like Oldschool and it's somewhat similar. I'd love to have this as a Leagues or Fresh Worlds styled experience you could do.
Love the concept for the series! If I could make a small editing suggestion, if you play with no game sounds, you could add some of the rs3 music as soft background music to fill the silence when you're not talking. I'll still watch regardless of if you do or not! You earned yourself a sub
The hardest part of bossing is not about starting with nothing...its the ungodly amount of grinding u need to put in to get all the skills u require just to get to the end game bossing content and the stupid amount of tedious questing
You might already know this, but anytime there's a click to accept option like on the barrows chests. Instead of clicking, you can hit the space bar if on PC. This works great for fast recovery of items just like this and allows you to hover your mouse over a tele option while looting from a chest, off the ground, anything with that accept interface.
That's very helpful actually, I knew it worked for the loot interface but didn't know it worked for chests. Will take advantage of that from now on, cheers.
Just so you know, abilities do not use runes so provided you are not autoing or 4ticking you can benefit from higher spells with no detriment. Runes should be relatively hard to run out of while using revo and you'll get more damage for free!
This is awesome!! Cant wait to follow this. One thing that might be nice is enabling target information in combat targeting settings. Kind of confusing to only see an unlabeled hp bar on enemies
Wow! I only just discovered this series. This is why I created a new account because my main is maxed and only due to DXP and MTX which makes it feel like a broken account. My new account is going to discover all the bosses on this game and get most of the stuff by myself. This series is gonna help a lot with that!
will definitely enjoy watching this series, hopefully i'll pick up some useful pointers to apply on my Ironman, always struggled with PvM. also, it might be a good idea to show the boss collection log of any given boss before you first fight them going forward, so we know for sure how many drops you have gotten during the time playing this challenge.
@@krityaRS You could have bought Guthix Staff and Lunar Armor. These are easy to acquire items and much cheaper. Those items would also allow to you do up to GWD1 or even Vindicta. Dragon Staff has a high quest requirement. Great Series nonetheless.
Starting from scratch with cosmetics enabled looks off, at 23:10 you spin around trying to show your skeletal armor, but nothing is visible thanks to the cosmetics. Very interesting series, will definitely keep watching!
Yeah I took the cosmetics off. I wanted to use the cosmetic set since it's my favourite armour set and I can't get it on my main but I came to the conclusion that seeing what I'm wearing is a bit too important in this series. Hopefully it goes on sale soon, for now it will be an avatar I use to reference the character.
Let me know how it goes! I'll be publishing more details in the discord as they become relevant throughout the series such as the tier reward and challenge reward tables.
@@krityaRS yeah, I figured it out when I accidentally teleported. Sucks you lost a couple chests online the way. I made a barrows plugin for alt1 toolkit as well, might speed up the runs a bit.
in the beginning when you equip the iron dagger/bronze offhand I thought you said you couldn't use archeology relic (2:45) until unlocked but yet the adrenaline crystal was used and your adrenaline did not drawn out of combat meaning it was in use? (12:36-12:44) maybe I missed when it was unlocked but if doing another video it would be nice to see a pop up like "slot unlocked" or something that pops up on the screen so we can see what has been unlocked so far?
You're thinking of "Persistent Rage", the old persistent rage is now a passive reward from the Succession quest in the form of the infernal puzzle box which prevents adrenaline drain. Persistent Rage now causes you to generate adrenaline out of combat instead. I'll make sure to make noise when we unlock something, but we don't have any relics active in this episode.
I know this is 2 months old but I'm sure the statistics on the creature kills are only 7 for highest chance on loot table. or it might've been 9. I can't remember. but it's one of those numbers lmao.
Love the series so far just curious on what the limitations of the g.e will be? I thought it was just food potions and basic weapons? But then I seen you buy all that superior skeletal which is decent enough to use even at rax so I’m just curious on the g.e side of the series
So the GE is limited so that I can't buy the following: Anything unlocked via a tier unlock or challenge until I have unlocked it. Gear above t60 (I'm using normal skeletal not superior). Items in boss drop logs.
Great idea for a series! However, I was wondering why you didn't buy the guthix staff instead of the dragon battlestaff. Guthix staff is also t60, way cheaper, and has an insane special attack which is very useful at Barrows specifically, but also got later on.
I didn't make it clear enough in this episode, but shops and item reclaims (e.g. surgeons ring, Excalibur) are locked behind challenges. E.g. one of the options for the hydrix challenges is the ability to buy god staves.
@@krityaRS lets hope it doenst have to be this early on, cause i didnt enjoy doing is with best in slot gear, cant imagine doing it with ur restrictions. either way best of luck looking forward to more episodes!
barrows got a little better when ammy of forsaken got to 8-digit value , in just 12-15 days i can earn guarantee 300m atleast (lets say you play 4-7 hours a day) , clean , i recommend it for returners 👌
God staves are a challenge reward (gstaff/zstaff specs op) so I can't buy them until I redeem that by completing one of the "hydrix" challenges. Also I can't buy stuff from shops, only the GE, unless it's untradeable and required to utilise a boss drop. Didn't do a good job making that clear here so will be clarify in the next one!
Noob question: When kiting, how are you attacking him without clicking on him? I've been trying to kite, but clicking on the boss turns my character around, and the boss catches up with me.
@@krityaRS Makes sense (: maybe even just some of the easier ones like vorago and solak, would be cool seeing you learn how to do it and overcome certain mechanics
Why can't you use shopkeepers around the world? I assume they are probably cheaper than the GE price for weapons and armor, as well as the mazcab shop for potions.
I didn't make it clear enough in the video but shops are only accessible through challenge rewards (e.g. god staves) or if an item is sold that is required to make use of a boss drop but isn't tradeable.
The goal was to make a bit of a different problem space to work in than an Ironman, it also ties in to the "no money making other than bossing" as shops like rune shops are highly profitable and I'd rather not start limiting what I can sell or having to track where each item stack came from etc.
You honestly should be able to buy "eventually" all items you would be able to smith so that goes up masterwork armor. It would be nice to remove your cosmetics too, let the character evolve a bit. Barrows pieces can be mix matched for fashion so Im curious to see what you come up with by the end.
I removed the cosmetics near the end of the episode and they will remain off in-game for the rest of the series. I'm still planning to use the "shadow dragoon" emotes etc. To represent this character but you're right that seeing what I'm wearing is pretty key for this series.
I cannot, I didn't make that clear enough though. So shops are limited to only untradeables required to make use of boss drops. I can't actually think of an example atm but say Algarum thread wasn't tradeable then I'd allow myself to buy it from Oellus to use sirenic scales from arraxor etc.
Yeah, it's my favourite outfit in the game, so much so that a friend of mine redrew it from scratch for me for use in this series. Unfortunately, being able to see the gear I'm wearing is going to be pretty key in this series so it won't be making much of an ingame appearence, but it's my way of representing the character "Nairathor".
Surely instead of buying d staff surely a g staff from vendor is acceptable in your rules?... That being said it's a "boss only" so I get the reasoning
God staves are part of the hydrix rewards, so we'd have to unlock them by completing a hydrix challenge before we can buy them. Episode 5 goes into these in more detail.
Love the content and the idea. However I have a suggestion for toke videos. Background music. Seriously they carry their weight in gold. Nothing too loud like 5 or 10% volume just running through the e tire thing.
Yeah I've found that quite a few things close the interface including prayer running out and leaving combat, I just assumed it was the skeleton because right before I teled he walked next to me. Gonna make sure to be double checking for the bank message or quick looting from now on.
The challenges are going to be revealed as we unlock tiers, but I will be posting the tiers, unlocks and challenge rewards in my discord later today, just got to make them a bit more presentable.
This is gonna be a very fun series! Can't wait to see more!
Hey, I'm a longtime Runescape player, but never took it seriously. My friends all want me to get into bossing, and you showing this linear challenge really helps. Keep the series going
Gonna be a fun series to watch! Always good to discover new channels and content :)
LOVING the premise for this series. The start was absolutely enthralling! Cant wait to see more 😃
Interesting series, looking forward to the next episode :)
honestly, I have to say: I love your content! you push through challenges that can be boring sometimes just to bring us entertainment!!! is a pleasure to watch your videos! Thank you very much for your work!!!
oh, btw you could had use darts

How is that unironic
I hate when I find an awesome series but it's only on day 1 so I can't binge! Can't wait to see how this adventure unfolds! :D
you could binge my content
;)
Sucks to suck, im binging all of it lmao
Subbed ! Love a series like this! As a long term RS3 noob this will be fun and educational for me
Awesome idea and great first video to start the serie, looking forward for the continuation, i wish you the best of luck!
Love the concept for the series!
If I could make a small editing suggestion, if you play with no game sounds, you could add some of the rs3 music as soft background music to fill the silence when you're not talking. I'll still watch regardless of if you do or not! You earned yourself a sub
Thank you for the suggestion, it's something I'm looking to improve for next episode :)
This is it, this is gonna be your big break and I'm glad to be here for Ep 1
This looks interesting so I'll keep an eye out for the next episode.
very into this series. a lot more unique than building a main. I think it will do pretty well.
The hardest part of bossing is not about starting with nothing...its the ungodly amount of grinding u need to put in to get all the skills u require just to get to the end game bossing content and the stupid amount of tedious questing
Rs3 would benefit with a quest addon like osrs has..
Subbed because this series looks really cool!
Good to see some great series like these on RS3 keep them coming legend
Liked, subbed and commenting for the algorithm. Rs3 needs more content like this
Thanks very much, glad you think so :)
Super interesting series! Can't wait for more!
Love this series, really cool idea. Keep up the good work
Had me in stitches boxing the barrows man. What a way to start! 🤣
Really cool concept, gained a new subscription

This was because my target's health bar was floating under the barrows brother UI in the top left. I fix it in the next episode.
Really fun video, hope you keep this up
just watched the second episode, this is gonna be great content :D good luck to you
Looking foward to this series!
This is a good series been wanting to do something like this
This is gold rs3 content
been waiting for something like this !!

Mmmmmm... Ok, Imma mention two things, One, you can bank between bro's. Two, Varrock Sword Shop sells Black Swords for an actual pittance.
Loving the idea of the series, I'd very much recommend right clicking and selecting "Quick Loot", that way you won't loose anything
ooo yeah, This is gonna be a new binge series
Fun series for sure!
Fun idea, looking forward to more!
will definitely enjoy watching this series, hopefully i'll pick up some useful pointers to apply on my Ironman, always struggled with PvM.
also, it might be a good idea to show the boss collection log of any given boss before you first fight them going forward, so we know for sure how many drops you have gotten during the time playing this challenge.
Great suggestion, I'll make sure to do that going forward :)

fun series cant wait for the next episode!
Plz upload this series again soon. Enjoyed very much
Next episode comes out today!
You probably know this, but right-click quick loot makes it faster and guarantees looting chest without interference from creatures attacking.
Yeah I made sure to do that after the incident X.X
Starting from scratch with cosmetics enabled looks off, at 23:10 you spin around trying to show your skeletal armor, but nothing is visible thanks to the cosmetics. Very interesting series, will definitely keep watching!

You do know there's a right click option on the chest to quick loot.... you get the stuff to the inventory immediately without viewing it.
Time to give this a try
Let me know how it goes! I'll be publishing more details in the discord as they become relevant throughout the series such as the tier reward and challenge reward tables.
Do you remember the last time you were in a fight irl? Imagine if he had an iron dagger.
great idea
you have a new subby
i love pvm stuff
Finally a rs3 series to rival osrs's many series...
Great video! Definitely makes me want to keep watching. Maybe add some kind of music tho? Just a suggestion, love the idea for the series
Thanks for the suggestion! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
You can bank mid barrows run btw. Only resets once you loot the chest.
I didn't know that, thought it reset when you left the area.
@@krityaRS yeah, I figured it out when I accidentally teleported.
Sucks you lost a couple chests online the way.
I made a barrows plugin for alt1 toolkit as well, might speed up the runs a bit.
Killed 1 minion . got one barrows totem.. im on .. we're gaming :))))

There is a free bronze dagger in the varrock shop.

After watching bunch of Farmers Group Ironman in OSRS, seeing you get hit by 78 scared the crap out of me xD
Love the series so far just curious on what the limitations of the g.e will be? I thought it was just food potions and basic weapons? But then I seen you buy all that superior skeletal which is decent enough to use even at rax so I’m just curious on the g.e side of the series
So the GE is limited so that I can't buy the following:

@@krityaRS and what if the staff is also buyable on the GE? Does that still make it not permitted until you unlock it?
Anything that is a tier unlock, a hydrix reward, a boss log drop or is a >t60 piece of gear is not allowed. 99% of everything else is fair game.
GL on the series hope you dont get F'd up on the linza hammer, took me 5102 kills to get it for my Collection log
Hoping for a little luckier than that, but there's plenty of grinds for us to go dry on so I'm prepared for it to happen at some point.
@@krityaRS lets hope it doenst have to be this early on, cause i didnt enjoy doing is with best in slot gear, cant imagine doing it with ur restrictions. either way best of luck looking forward to more episodes!

Noob question: When kiting, how are you attacking him without clicking on him? I've been trying to kite, but clicking on the boss turns my character around, and the boss catches up with me.
If you use a non channeled ability while spam clicking to move around you won't stop to cast it
You could’ve flicked your prayers on Karil
Ngl this series one definitely going to be great and 2 makes me want to try Pvm
I know im late, but you shoulda tried a bone dagger. The spec gives an affinity and defense debuff!
ummm, wow . want to try that. nice series need next episode
aww was kinda hoping they were starting from 1 but i see why they cant
This is gonna be good especially for someone’s bad at Bossing
I'm not sure if you're calling me or yourself bad at bossing, but either way, fair.
Do you plan to do any challenge solos at the end? Like solak, vorago, aod, bm and yaka?
I'm not ruling it out as an epilogue/miniseries, but I'd have to improve a lot at PVM along the way.
@@krityaRS Makes sense (: maybe even just some of the easier ones like vorago and solak, would be cool seeing you learn how to do it and overcome certain mechanics
This is gonna be interesting for sure lol
I feel like you had Karil if you pray flicked

oh man this looks good
you could have bought an obsidian staff early on assuming they sold at near market. T60 staff at 103k

I am very confused as to why you chose to buy a 300k dragon staff over a 100k obsidian staff
Forgot the obsidian staff was t60, some reason I had in my head that it was t50. Would've saved a little time for sure.
@@krityaRS it also has a prayer bonus
How much do you think a bronze daggers costs... exactly?
Oh was excited to see some fun combat leveling, starting with high skills makes it less interesting
Can you not use general stores/npc shops? Could get weapons cheaper there than ge
I cannot, I didn't make that clear enough though. So shops are limited to only untradeables required to make use of boss drops. I can't actually think of an example atm but say Algarum thread wasn't tradeable then I'd allow myself to buy it from Oellus to use sirenic scales from arraxor etc.
What outfit are you wearing? I can't figure it out 0.0
Edit:
Found it, it's the discontinued "Shadow Dragoon" armor set.
Yeah, it's my favourite outfit in the game, so much so that a friend of mine redrew it from scratch for me for use in this series.

Love the content and the idea. However I have a suggestion for toke videos.
Background music. Seriously they carry their weight in gold. Nothing too loud like 5 or 10% volume just running through the e tire thing.
Later episodes have more in the way of background music, interested to hear if it's an improvement.
Were shops off limits? If not, black/white gear would’ve been cheaper than the daggers 😋
Shops are off limits yeah, there's a couple reasons that are explained in the next episode.
This series is the one that will blow ur channel UP thumbs up from me new sub too
Fucking hell I don’t have talk some bollocks in CC 🤪
no shot we only get one episode rn tho right?
I'm afraid so, but there's more coming!
lol it wasn't the skeleton it was your prayer ran out xD always turn prayer off
Yeah I've found that quite a few things close the interface including prayer running out and leaving combat, I just assumed it was the skeleton because right before I teled he walked next to me. Gonna make sure to be double checking for the bank message or quick looting from now on.
What cosmetics are you using?
please do more of this videos
Where can we see the tiers and challenges?
The challenges are going to be revealed as we unlock tiers, but I will be posting the tiers, unlocks and challenge rewards in my discord later today, just got to make them a bit more presentable.
