This and the melee guide are the two most useful guides I've found - video or otherwise - in helping me strengthen my account and ability to progress in OSRS. I love how clear and accessible these videos are, thank you so much. Can't wait for the mage variant, so I can gear up for all situations.
Gnome you're videos are amazing I appreciate how detailed you're guides are , I just came back to osrs after a 3 year break and this has helped me out tremendously. I avoided buying avernic because of you and its crashed 30m+ since iv'e been back thanks for all the help!
Crystal Helm is super underrated! incredible for off task bossing, high attack and defense bonuses and +2 prayer. i would probably get it after anguish but before pegs
From 2022, the ranged item rework means that you should always use an odium, dfward, or twisted buckler when ranging with a crossbow; they give ranged strength and aren't terribly expensive.
Something small i would like to add is that i would use a blessed coif as it gives +1 range accuracy and +1 prayer bonus over the archer helm and only costs 35k more. Great video as always though :)
Huh always thought archer's was better, I also didn't mention blessed vambraces which are better in cases where you need prayer because they are only 1 less ranged accuracy
Glad I watch this vid. Was planning to save up for that Armadyl ranged set. I already got the necklace of anguish. I'll sell it then, make momey from blast furnace, then buy that rigour.
Recently got rigour specifically for dps at vorkath and it has been a GAME CHANGER! Currently using full void blowpipe and rigour for vork saving for that dhcb
Tyler Anscomb aye Tyler bro, i ended up buying DHCB and i highly recommend it rn as its super cheap. Gonna use it to get as much gp as possible then sell it back when it goes over 110m again. You got it at 7 kc 😭 luckyyy man
I'm still too poor to afford it, did you make the money grinding vorkath? And yeah I know bro I have the screen cap, gonna send it to asukayen's luckiest players haha
A few things to add; • Blessed coif is a +2 ranged attack bonus over an Archer helm with no quest requirements and under 100k gp. • Salve amulet (ei) is a great option for undead monsters.
I was hoping you'd mention the crystal armor set. Now that I have rigor and anguish I want to get this next and find the niche uses it has. I believe it can be quite powerful at saradomin and potentially zulrah. I know it has high upkeep but I'd like to still experiment with it. Now that the shards are "buyable".
I own crystal armour. It doesn’t have much upkeep really. I think RiceCup said, an hour of Zulrah uses about 8 shards per piece an hour (so 24 total). If you do Zalcano or crystal trees for passive shards, this should hardly be a problem. I haven’t tried it at Saradomin mainly because the amount of damage you take in GWD is pretty high. Instances where crystal armor is strong is where you need prayer: basilisk knights, hydra, brutal blacks, and DKS are all instances where it’s very good, as you negate 90-100% of all the damage you take in those instances by correct overheads. It’s also useful in instances where you’re cannoning + using blowpipe w/ overheads or prayer in some sort, as well as IMO being a BIS against Sire vents. It technically can be used in any instance tbow is used, but I’d say when you need to conserve prayer is where it shines.
I do find this video helpful and it's definitely shown me what I need to save up for next. Although like all videos things have changed like the blowpipe and ge has a tax. I feel like these kinds of videos should be redone every year or half a year depending what updates they put into the game.
Is this guide still up to date? I heard blowpipe got nerfed. If so what's the next best option? I am using rune crossbow with black d'hide shield and broad bolts for ammo.
A very nice cheap (90k as of this moment) amulet to consider opposed to a fury is the dragonbone amulet. Equal ranged attack bonus and +12 prayer bonus (7 more than a fury).
I honestly think armadyl armor is super underestimated. People get this idea that it doesn't matter at all because they learn as a new player they shouldn't buy it first (which is true), but I've honestly heard noobs say they don't need it at all! First that's just not how the game works, you always progress. Second, armadyl''s defensive bonuses are very useful. I love solo godwars, I do all bosses with methods like 5:0, solo kree, solo bandos, solo sara, etc. When I did my tbow rebuild I quickly realized I was getting torn apart at godwars when going back to blessed d'hide. You might not believe me that people think this but I swear I've seen dozens of people that think this.
I was wondering what were your thoughts on the dragon crossbow amd the magic shortbow. I feel a bit bad about not being able to upkeep the low 500k an hour of the BP now that I mentioned it.
Would you say blessed D' hide is better then Archers Helm, or is the Archers Helm better then the Blessed D' Hide? please help i don't know what I should use.
dude I had no idea frog leather even existed, thank you! Maybe I should get it on my low level ironman, it's so poor :( I got the agility pet at 49 agility and I lost it at wintertodt. I have like 10k coins in bank lul
????? why would you start with darts? I don't get it. I know they're faster, but they give very small ranged attack and strength compared to rune c'bow and broad bolts.
Tremendously better dps, crossbows are only used because they are a bit cheaper to use, but low end darts are so cheap anyways you should only train with those
@@GnomonkeyRS I put it into that DPS calculator, and it seems that it is better dps, but I don't understand why. How could a mithril dart's 7 ranged strength beat out broad bolt's 100? The darts are twice as fast, but even so, 100 is over 14 times larger.

@@EXXTSON it's an old meme but it checks out
One thing worth mentioning is that blessed d'hide coifs also exist and are a cheap 1 attack upgrade over the archer helm.
So what I got from this video was that I need to put a second mortgage on my house for a twisted bow. Got it.
Basically hahaha
Considering how it costs a couple maxed out houses, I'd say take out a third and fourth one too.
Tbow is like $600, do you live in a dog house?
@@astrosurfer I mean houses in RS cost 1000gp, so kinda yeah

Can't wait for the mage variant, so I can gear up for all situations.
A lot of distinctions I had no idea about, like void giving more damage, but blessed dhide giving more accuracy. Very helpful.
The spinning twisted mario song was a nice touch, seems like you're getting more creative with the added touches with every video.
This channel is an actual lifesaver.
Easily my favorite channel to refer to when I am making upgrades.
Really appreciating these factual, concise and entertaining guides. Please keep up the great work as am looking forward to all your future videos!

Surprised there's no mention of msb(i)! Great guide
This is an extremely useful guide thank you!
I expect you to make the same type of a video for melee and magic ;) would be interested in them too

You're a beast for doing these videos. THANK YOU

Love these videos dude, thank you.
Need an updated one post range rebalancing!
Great video, so informative! You've convinced me to sell my anguish for rigour :)
Any idea where the Bow of faerdhinen would come into this? Would it be advised to buy before I can afford a Twisted bow?
Hydra has low range def. Only reason void isnt bis there is bc slayer helm. Difference at vork is void stacks with salve and slay helm doesnt
Sick guide!
Can we get an update on this video for new items added? e.g. Zaryte vambraces, Venator ring, Dizana's quiver, etc
love the vids, my newest sub
fremmy trials unlock all the helms and isles unlock only Neitiznot

5:09 do you mean the Fremennik Trials?
Cool video 👍
what a vid, thx man!
I waited for rigour to drop as well (about 65m). Now its 32m and its just so cheap for something so powerful!
I was wondering what were your thoughts on the dragon crossbow amd the magic shortbow.
I feel a bit bad about not being able to upkeep the low 500k an hour of the BP now that I mentioned it.
Love this vids, I think you mis-spoke on the archer helm. It requires fremy trials, not isles. Might want to annotate a correction, thanks!
Ahh I always get those mixed up
More things affect your range strength and max hit. Odium ward, twisted buckler. And a few more weapons not mentioned.
great videos!
Then end with the tbow was funny af
rigour gang
thank god i focus on skilling and can just enjoy the game
If I can't imbued my archer ring would you recommend keep using the ring or swap to the brimstone ring?? Any information much appreciated?
Not sure about archers ring before anguish, especially with rapid weapons.
you can upgrade your archers helm to karil's coif or blessed d hide coif which is about 70k each
1,3b tbow? Been quite a long time since that price tag.
Can you talk about the crystal armour set a little bit?
blessed over ranger tunic?
Until I have enough to Imbue slayer helmet, should I use Neitznot helm or blessed coif or archer helm?
Blessed coif is probably best option until you have that
@@GnomonkeyRS thanks and thanks again for the fantastic, easy to follow video.
Ty!
Would you say blessed D' hide is better then Archers Helm, or is the Archers Helm better then the Blessed D' Hide? please help i don't know what I should use.
What about the salve amulet for Vorkath?
I wish you covered the crystal armour as well.
How does this vid hold up with the blowpipe nerf?
Absolutely love your videos. Keep 'em up.
Casually making corrupted gauntlet look easy in the background
exactly what i needed thnx
Is the dragon cross bow worth buying
voice + mic + speech pace + insight = quality making me kinda gay bro
👁👄👁
Weird that you recommend blessed dhide top + legs before fury, but skip blessed coif and go straight to arma
Thank you SO much!

Great!
Feel like MSBI should've been mentioned in the starter gear part too. Cheap to use and good dps.
I would have liked to have seen something on off hand items
subbed
I think it’s good to assume someone using an ACB I also using a twisted buckler.
Can you make one for raids
So basically blowpipe dragon darts is bis everywhere scythe and tbow arent
Masori from TOA?
you got chanced sooo many times on that first hunleff kill

actually, unless the ammo slot adds stats to darts, I'm getting less dps with darts than with rune crossbow with broad bolts.
