I don't think I can put people in any order, there are just so many awesome gamers!

Here are "top ten" in no particular order that have made my Alora experience awesome as well as some real big gamers:

@Ironb0rn or @ real b0rn - The one who got me into ToB and Inferno and a big inspiration to go hard on PvM and grind endgame items. My oldest friend here (an osrs gamer nowadays) and great fun to be in vc with and just game whether if it is raids or leagues. Big grinder as well as the biggest spoon on Alora I have ever seen, just disgusting rng but he would never admit that.

@Drokaan or @Drokaann - My second oldest friend here, absolutely love the guy. HCIM gamer, tob partner that was with me when I obtained my first Scythe which was hype af. Recently came back to Alora from a long break and hope he is going to stay for a while

@Bier - Also known as tobavoider73 because he avoids doing tob. Someone tell him he can't get scythe from skilling or toa! Joking aside, big gamer and still hunting that scythe (one of the driest ingame rn). Love raiding and planking with him at Bloat. Great guy that has became one of my closest friends on Alora.

@Dead Cousin or @cous - Raider friend, always down for some ToB. Big grinder rn trying to build that hcim up. It's a travesty that he has no Sang staff yet on the IM... but it is ok he has way too many scythes.

@Gd iron - Part of the old gang doing ToB together, big Australian gamer. Too bad he left to osrs as well but always fun to vc and raid with. Come back to finish that scythe some day

@Moe - When Lowkey had less and less time for Alora and eventually had to back down Moe took the responsibilities of Community manager and has been fantastic so far. Not just that but he has throughout the lockdowns and after kept the community alive and connected with the awesome events and bonuses that he did soooo often for all the gamers as well as helped the staff team and with the advertisement for the server. Thanks for all you do for Alora my guy big respect

@Tauri - Not even in his top ten but whatever.   Joking aside. Been on Alora for a long while now but been helping Moe with all the events lately and is now the Event Manager. Well deserved and keep it going. Such a great dude also a big gamer trying to finish those boss logs. GL!

@Steel Nogan - This cute noob got me into ICE further, because before him I was not ranked and just lurked around (though I have been there since I started Alora way back in 2018). He was a big inspiration for me to go for the 4.6b xp since I saw him get it way back and I thought I should as well. Big time grinder and awesome youtuber. Miss those vids man

@Mack - This guy puts so much effort into trying to make Alora more enjoyable to play. His guides are top notch, his suggestions are well thought out and many make into the game. Also he tries his best to help the noobs but I see sometimes his patience seems to run out. Absolutely a chad gamer, hunting those pets (*spooning those pets) and has been in Alora for a long time now.

@Ragragrag46 or @46 - What a gamer. Fellow Finn of course, big pvper but also big time PvM grinder. Has like way too many accounts in different game modes. Gotta respect the dude for the hours he has put in this game it's nuts.

Some honorable mentions and absolutely fantastic gamers:

@Extremedanny - The original pet hunter. So close yet so far. Absolutely one of the biggest grinders in game, hope he can catch a break sometime and get one of those pets he still is looking for. That of course requires him to find motivation to come back and grind again.

@Lowkey - Huge part of the community even to this day with the memes haha. Great CM and streamer

@Gimslaving - Huge gamer and inspired me to go harder, very sick account even though it is a GIM I was surprised by your list ngl.

@Brambo - Such a nice guy and a big grinder as well

@Suede or Oscuro - WTF he has became so far from the old ToB days with the boys. Too bad he spooned the scythe after all...

@Ghost walk or @Grass walk - Absolutely miss this guy, what a gamer. Sadly deironed both of his maxed eims when he quit :/

@Memento Mori or @Smope Jr - What a gamer god damn, does not play as much but inspired me to solo tob back in the day

@Yautja - Dis guy has spooned his way to one of the best IM accounts out there. Someone stop him pls

@GIMbo Slice -Great guy, big noob though. He is quite inactive but plays osrs gim mostly now so makes sense I guess.

@gim kierannn or @Not So Hard or @Take Two - Recently came back from osrs, big time noob. Always fun to vc and game with.

@Aves - What a cute noob but also gamer

@Arosa - Big time classic nerd

@Laardii - Great dude also fellow Finn with a problem of receiving the Scythe of Vitur

@Vespy or @ Vespina - he is the raid

@username v2 - A newer friend for sure but old player, big time gamer with issues involving a certain item in the Theatre...

@Gazoo - Lovely guy, always ready to help. Also a gamer

@mochiii - 4.6b as hcim was great to witness, losing status really opened the game though. Big grinder and gamer but can't do toa for shit idk why.

@Snakelings or @Sit - Big time pvper but also a gamer. Great hcim account, one of the best still alive.

@cracatoa29 - Crazy raider man, was very sad to see him lose all the hard work by some bs hacker and quit but he is back again. Rip my #1 spot in hm tob

@diplomacy - Another crazy raider man, an absolute unit though. Sad to see him gamble all his work away but priorities I guess. GL at uni!

@Noa - Huge gamer, not as active atm but god damn that NM record time alone is insane

@Aritus - Get the tbow noob
@Miq - Fellow Finn and a gamer. Such a great account and big inspiration to go harder.

@Fe mandem - Another old time friend and fellow IM grinder

@ToB Queen - Big time tob grinder, just recently beat his kc but that is only because he is inactive haha. Big inspiration for tobbing ngl

@No Bank Mate @Mode @Rafiki @ViskasG3rai @s3iman or @S3 @R E Z Z @Fopaanz @Klam @redcar @saeed @iron tard @julsbasement @strudelle @Tachnaka @Dagdanor @N @Logantx00 @N @Justen @Sassafras @Calloway @Clappy @Animals @Sunnii @Spork Mac - big fan

Also huge shoutout to ICE!

Many left to mention but this already turned into top 100 ffs. Well I tried. Great post @Brambo!

Hey Alorians! If you're here you're here to try to learn some beginner 150 invocation toa on alora! 

This guide will be like my CoX beginner guide. I will type out what to do in the room, followed by a video of me doing it.

(no flame pls, ive never done toa on osrs just started doing toa when it came out on alora!!!!)

This is my setup, use better gear where possible.

Dds + blowpipe+ Blood fury  pretty mandatory. Switch trident with sang staff/ shadow staff. If you dont have bowfa+crystal use arma/masori + tbow. (not a big deal if you dont have bowfa or tbow usually only use them on 1 boss, tbow used on more but i dont have one) Blood fury not really mandatory but it helps ALOT. I would keep barrows gloves, dont upgrade to fero/zaryte. Brimstone ring would be good to bring over bring but i dont have one. Dont bring a boot switch not worth, just bring dboot/prims. Can bring neit jaw if you have but I like to use serp as theres a room that can poison you. Use rapier if you have it, z hasta if you dont. If you dont have either, go get one of them, wouldnt use a tent.

First we will start with what invocations I use. I don't use any time limiting ones because you can get 150 pretty easy without them and just incase you have to afk or something you wont screw yourself over by not finishing it in time and it becomes a entry mode kc instead of normal... I'm not going to write out all my invo's or my thought process behind them because lets be real here idk why i use them i looked up a guide KEKW. They are very easy though.

1st Room: Kephri

When you first walk in this room you will need to pick a starting path left or right and complete puzzles. You can do any of the puzzles, but I'm only going to cover 3 of them because I don't know how to do the pillar one and you don't need to do it, you can just do the others!.

 This one is pretty simple, you just need to click the tablet, it will tell you a number in your chat box (make sure filtered is turned off!) Then you must step on tiles that add up to the number in your chat box. Each image has a different number value. I prefer to keep this open when doing the raid 

This puzzle you will click the little thing right before it and they will light up in a certain order, recreate the order without stepping on wrong tiles to complete it. Very simple.

 I personally don't like this puzzle but if you get unlucky with the order of puzzles you get you might have to do this one. Walk over a tile, it will turn on/off some tiles, you need all the tiles lit up to complete. (You can brute force this by using your health, if you have 1 or 2 tiles unlit but the rest are and you cant figure out how to get them all lit, you can right click the tile and press flip. It will turn it on but it will cost you 20 HP!)

Last puzzle, This one is mandatory.  Click a tile, a image will pop up, you need to find the same image on the other side and click it as well. When I go into this room I like to type 1 side out in my chat box so I know where it is without actually having to remember where it is. (L Bird, M Hand, R Boot) (L=Left, M=Middle, R=Right) you can do this however you want, write it out or memorize it if you got good memory.

Now its time for the boss Kephri!

Very simple boss, every few ticks she will send out a bomb similar to how vorkath sends out a fireball. It will show as a shade under you, move a tile away to not get hit by it.

Once you get her to 1 hp she will go into 2nd phase. A shield scarab and scarab swarms will come out. Pray range, kill the scarab swarms as they will generate shield back to kephri. After she's back up and attacking you I prefer to kill the shield scarab then deplete her shield again. Phase 2 will happen again, except this time another npc will spawn Arcane Scarab. KILL THIS IMMEDIATELY THIS IS PRIO OVER SCARAB SWARMS. This mob will pack you out so quick if you don't kill it that you're gonna go get 200m fishing before you decide to come attempt toa again. Once its dead, kill the scarab swarms again, then the shield scarab if you like. Deplete her shield again, this time her shield is complete gone and wont regen again, now  you just need to kill her. 

Second Room: Baba

Walk in, take a hammer and take a potion. I just blowpipe the entire room and pray mage the entire time. When a red skull shows up over the vents you need to stand on top of the vent and press the potion, if theres a skull on the pillars click it and repair it. Kill everything (prioritize shamans  as they will summon more mobs). Theres 1 mob that will run at you Volatile Baboon it will explode on you and deal massive damage, just run a few tiles away after it gets close and starts to blow up.

Boss time! Baba:

Walk in, pray melee and attack him. When you see stuff falling above your head move a few tiles over, this will spawn a big rock on the floor. Stand next to it so when baba throws his boulder at you it will only damage you 3, and the rock will soak the big damage for you. He will also throw out a shockwave periodically, this will look like a shadow cross on the floor, run to the end of to not get damaged (you have to be pretty fast to not get hit by it, i usually get hit by it but its not a big deal) When he knocks you back take out your blowpipe and attack the ball thats cracked (it looks blueish). You will 1 hit it ALWAYS. Run towards baba and attack him with melee if you are close able to, else just hit the next cracked ball and continue inching forward.

Repeat until dead.

After you've done two rooms you now will be able to speak to the ghost in the lobby that will offer you supplies. You can choose whichever supplies you want

 Ambrosia - 2 dose potion that will fill your health to 124, prayer to 124, and also boost your attack/str/def/mage/range stats.

 Blessed Crystal Scarab - 2 uses each, restores a small amount of prayer instantly, then continues to restore prayer over time (similar to a prayer enhance in CoX)

 Liquid Adrenaline - 2 dose potion, makes your special attacks cost 50% less (DDS 8 times or claw 4 times)

 Nectar - This is a saradomin brew

 Smelling Salts- 2 uses each, increases your attk/str/def/range/mage stats to 124 and will restore them over time even if you brew down (similar to overload in CoX)

 Tears of elidinis- This is a super restore

Its always nice to grab a liquid adrenaline+smelling salt if you can as it will help with the next bosses. But if you're still learning you may want to just opt for extra supplies.

3rd Room: Zebak

The puzzle for this boss is extremely easy. Pick up a water container off the floor, go to a waterfall, fill it, and dump it in the plant in the middle of the room. 

If you get hit while you have water in your container it will reduce the amount you have by 25 each time you get hit (you fill your container with 100 each time)

So in order to not get hit you will wait at the thing closest to you to fully extended, count 1.2. then run and you shouldnt get hit, if theres a poison cloud spawning in the same square you are, just wait until there isnt one. 

Once you've filled the plant to 200hp you're finished and you can move onto the boss.

Boss Time: Zebak!

This boss is a little complicated, not as easy as the last two but not that bad once you get the hang of it.

  You will be ranging this boss. Your prayer will depend on what attack he uses. If he shoots a rock in the air you will pray range, if he shoots a clam/teapot whatever you think it is i have no clue i think it looks like a clam , pray mage.

2 Times per fight he will use 2 special attacks.

One you can see in the picture above. He will shoot out rocks and clams and poison stuff at the same time. You need to go behind a clam click it in the direction (the way your character is facing is the direction it will go) of a rock that has poison surrounding it. It will dispel the poison and you need to stand behind the rock to not take damage from his special attack.

The next one you can see here: 

He will send out poison and clams, dont worry about them just try to not stand in the poison. Stand in the opening of the waves so it doesnt sweep you off the map. They always have the same pattern when they come out so you can learn to get to the spots early. If you do get knocked off the side of the map theres a little platform that you need to click to climb back up.

4th Room: Akkha 

The puzzle room is pretty easy. Walk in a pick up a pickaxe from the statue (you can actually deposit your dragon pickaxe in here if you have a extra one and there will always be one available in the raid for you as long as you redeposit it after the room ends.... this is preferred to do  as  you can 1 phase the room instead of 2 if you have a dragon pickaxe)

One statue will send out a light beam, the other statue with the shield needs to get hit by it in order for you to mine the rock in the middle. 

Theres 2 different type of walls. the solid ones and cracked ones. Mine cracked ones they will usually be blocking the path for the light to get to the shielded statue.

Theres mirrors that cannot be picked up and mirrors that can be picked up. Pick up 3 mirrors place them in a certain order ( this changes every time ) to make it hit the shield statue then mine the middle rock to end the room. 

Avoid the black balls that fly around the room as they damage you. Also if the light beam hits you it will also damage you.

I will include my tile marker exports after the end of the full guide that you can import to help you do this room easier.

Boss Time! Akkha

This boss is pretty annyoing and has multiple phases.

When you first walk in he will always be praying Melee/Range. So you will start with using mage and praying melee. You can kite him around so you dont take as much damage, i usually kite him, in this video i didnt because I was just being lazy

Once you get him to 80% he will become immune to your attacks and 4 shadows of himself will pop up in each corner of the room. Kill one and it will make him attackable again but HE must remain in the quadrant of the shadow that you killed.

This will happen again at 60% 40% and 20% hp.

He will change prayers throughout the fight which means you will need to switch attack styles. As stated earlier at first he will be praying melee/range and you will mage him and pray melee. He will cycle to praying mage/range and you will attack with melee, praying range. He will the cycle to melee/mage prayer you will range him, while praying mage.

He has a special attack where he will disappear and icons on each quadrant will light up in a pattern than you need to follow in order to not get hit. They will light up in some random order, stand in the first one once the 3 quadrants that you're not in do their "attack" move to the next one that lit up and repeat until he appears back,

Once you get kill him he will regen health some health, and try to hide from you. He will be in one of the 4 corners like his shadows, just run up and attack him while dodging the ufo things on the ground as they will hit you for 17-20. (you have to melee him in this phase). Each time he appears you can hit him a total of 3 times before he will go to a different quadrant. Repeat till hes dead.

Once again, since you've done 2 rooms you will be able to get more supplies. Get watcha need!

Final Boss: Warden

This boss is pretty hectic and might take you a few tries to learn which kinda sucks because it may take you 30-40 mins to even get here in the first place.

Anyways, when you begin the fight you will need to go on the track on the left side and soak the energy so that it doesnt power up both wardens at the same time. Usually best to tank it until you're at about 66 hp. Make sure you're attacking the obelisk the entire time while soaking damage.(I prefer to blowpipe it as it does good dps on it, but if you have rapier it MIGHT be better im not sure I dont have a rapier.) Once you stop soaking keep attacking the obelisk  the right side warden will become powered up and it will send out Red UFO's out that will damage you if you are under them. (Theres a safespot just watch the video to see where) a few seconds after the red ufos come out yellow ones will. Just stand where a red ufo was and a yellow one will not spawn there.

Once the obelisk is dead the warden will come out. He will be praying Melee/Range when he comes out so you will start with mage. He attacks with 2 different styles Mage and Range. To know which one you will pray vs just look at his attack animation. If it looks like hes pitching a baseball at you it will be a skull and you will pray range. If it looks like you just got caught lacking at a red light and the op is shooting you with the glock 9 a red skull will come out, pray mage.  He also has 3 different special attacks with the shooting animation. A red sword = pray melee, white/blue arrow = pray range, and blue ball = pray mage.

On top of all of the above he has 3 different special attacks he will send out from time to time. 

 This one is easy to avoid, dont stand in the red lights, run through it to the other side so it just continues past you.

This one is also easy, just stand where I stand in the video and you wont ever get hit by this one.

Some say this one is also easy but I absolutely hate this one and I eat damage from it EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT... A black shadow will go on the ground to tell you where the attack will start, you either need to stand close to it or really far from it.

Once you fill up the energy of the boss by doing enough damage he will send out his core on the floor which you will need to attack to actually damage him. Attacking this will cause increased damage on him, and if you melee (which you will be doing) you will always hit your max hit. If you have a adrenaline potion its really good to use here as you can dds a bunch of times and again, since its melee it will always max hit. 

After a few seconds the core will go back into the warden, and he will resume doing the same things as above except this time he will be praying mage/melee so you will range him. (Blowpipe SHREDS this phase)

Repeat until hes dead.

Final Phase...

He will attack by slamming the floor. Just be on the opposite side of the room that he slams. He will always slam left first, then right, then middle.

Stand on the correct tile M(middle) L(left) R(right) to avoid his attacks. Just get in a rhythm 

at 80% hp he will become unattackable. Red skulls will spawn scattered. pull out your dds and attack them all. (doesnt need to be dds but you HAVE to melee them) then go back to your right tile and continue your rhythm (once skulls come out he will ALWAYS reset his attack cycle so if his next attack was middle safe it wont be middle safe anymore it will be reset.

This happens again at 60% 40% and 20%

At 60% hp zebak will spawn and start attacking you with mage/range attacks like he did in your first fight with him, just pray accordingly and keep dodging slam attacks.

At 40% Baba will spawn and start attacking you with falling rocks like he did in your fight with him. Dodge that, pray accordingly to zebak, and continue dodging slam attacks.

At 20% hp the warden will stop attacking with floor stomps. Just stand at the nearest row in front of him, dodge falling rocks from baba, pray according to zebaks attacks,  and there will be little lightning bolts that come out peroidically. You will know where they spawn as there will be shadows on the floor. The darker the close they are to attacking.

And thats it collect purples!!

 PARAGON BEST MOMENTS AND TOMFOOLERY 

 PARAGON BINGO 

This time time around we not be signing off with awards. Instead we will provide a small showcase of Paragon's BINGO Event!

Over two weeks a combination of four-man teams and one-man teams grinded it out to score the most points in order to win our bingo event.

Our total prize pool was at a whopping 
  FIFTEEN BILLION GP  

The Top 3 teams and the Top solo will be awarded fairly and very generously.

The event begun as normal, each member begun their grinds in hopes of winning the spoils.

At an early stage humble noob and his 'Aus Boys' team took the lead with a mega-spooned drop;
Humble received his THIRD twisted bow in just 83 total kc, look at this ridiculous log;

From there on it was a nail biting finish for 2nd and 3rd, with 4 teams only being apart but <100 points.

However the final standings were as follow;

 AUS Boys - 2350 pts 

humble noob, WPN, Noa, JT

 #FAFO - 1650 pts 

1 Def Fiji, Selenagomez, Sit, 17

 bitch VORKATH - 1575 pts 

W, Marg, Andy , lebong james

Lastly, our Solo winner;

Joining Paragon resulted in me hanging with the hottest dudes, I instantly was blessed with a 6 pack, Ferrari gifted to me by @2, and best of all, I eat free at every resturaunt in the world.

Best that ever done it hands down no competition. Cry is free btw #paragon on my chest and back. 

 taking over as we speak!

Ladies and Gentlemen, it's been a while since we have spoken about ourselves. We're back to showcase our achievements and antics throughout Alora!

Spoiler

 

We would like to kick off with everyone's favourite topic - The Wilderness.

 

In the past we have been a bit harsh in criticizing our opponents in this section.

We understand that we all play this game for various reasons and wish to engage in some friendly rivalry with the clans, so instead of talking nonsense - we'll just showcase some of our adventures.

 

While 22 & Anowas are busy planking to everyone, our Shooters have been quiet busy these last few months.
With our lovely PK Channel capturing countless moments, it was extremely hard to narrow the selection down to a bite sized amount - nonetheless enjoy the show, lets have look at the spoils.

What is your suggestion?: being able to have more than 1 person get a drop at nex, its in osrs and nex drop rate is awful even after the buff, i really think this could help a lot.

Is this in OSRS?: Yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?: nex being more popular and bringing more nex items into the server

What is your suggestion?:

A revamp to TOB/Hard Mode TOB

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

No, but TOB has undergone several changes already.

How would this benefit Alora?:

It would benefit Alora by making end game content more engaging, fun to play and skill based. Currently TOB and HMTOB are very stale and lack many of the mechanics the boss fights have in OSRS. While I agree that the encounters should be a bit easier on Alora, I still think the fights should be more engaging and mechanic-based rather than bosses like Verzik just putting out unavoidable damage to increase "difficulty". High unavoidable damage just feels inherently bad as a player. You aren't doing anything wrong, yet you are being punished for it and there's nothing you can do to change it. If even half of these changes to mechanics were to be added I think it would be monumental for making TOB more enjoyable to play. All the text may come off as a bit complicated but if you watch any of the guides linked throughout it makes things incredibly easy to understand.

Pre-Maiden:

• Add the vampire NPC on the landing before the entrance to Maiden which allows the team to forfeit the raid. The only way to leave currently is for the entire team to relog. This would be incredibly useful if you enter the wrong mode of TOB or someone in the team forgets something, is on the wrong spell book, etc. When forfeiting you just spawn outside as if you had finished the raid.
• Allow for players to Pre-pot for TOB. Currently all your stats, run, HP, prayer, etc. reset when entering a raid so any boost you have before entering gets wiped.

Maiden:

• In Hard Mode TOB, the blood trails from blood spawns do not disappear until Maiden is defeated. They remain on the ground and deal damage to players if stepped on.

Bloat:

• Bloat should also be attackable when walking around the room, players will take constant damage from flies when doing so in line of sight.
• 0:55 Bloat TOB WR - YouTube

Nylocas:

• Small nylocas can sometimes spawn inside a pillar when large nylocas pop and spawn the two smaller nylocas. This can only be fixed by an admin coming to kill it or resetting the raid. This is more of a bug, but I figured I may as well list it here.

Sotetseg:

• Add Sotetseg's melee attack instead of him shooting ranged projectiles. He should only shoot red magic projectiles that can then split into either magic or ranged balls when bounced off a player in the raid.
• If player's stand or step outside of Sotetseg's melee distance, they will not be able to take melee damage and Sotetseg will shoot a magic attack.
• Protect from melee can be used to reduce melee damage by 50%

Sotetseg - OSRS One Minute Guide - YouTube

Xarpus:

• Xarpus will occasionally get stuck staring at the NW corner during regular TOB when it should change its focus every 8 ticks to a new quadrant. As far as I'm aware, it only happens in the NW corner.
• Remove these two poison tiles in Hard Mode in front of the barrier into the room. IxHkt5l.png (904×637) (imgur.com)

Verzik Vitur:
P1

• Add the dialogue with Verzik to initiate the start to P1. This will stop the player(s) from taking random damage from Verzik while running up to the pillar and allow the cycle of attacking and hiding behind the pillar to be consistent from the start of the fight.

Dialogue for Verzik Vitur - OSRS Wiki (runescape.wiki)

• Allow all players to attack Verzik during P1. Attacks other than Dawnbringer do reduced damage but still allow other players to participate.
• Make the Dawnbringer Special attack work properly

Theatre of Blood/Strategies - OSRS Wiki (runescape.wiki)
Dawnbringer - OSRS Wiki (runescape.wiki)

• In Hard Mode, debris falls from the ceiling during P1. Similar to the debris that falls at Grotesque Guardians.

P2

• Verzik should not be able to be attacked or be able to attack players until she has made her way to the middle of the room to start P2.
• Add the melee bounce mechanic to P2 and remove the red mage attack until the final 35% of P2. This will force players to time their attacks properly and reward good gameplay rather than having to tank unavoidable mage damage. If a player is bounced, they take damage, get stunned for one attack cycle (4 ticks) and sent back 4 tiles from Verzik.

https://youtu.be/_oUe6rUdraU?t=473

• At 35% HP Verzik will spawn red spiders every 8 auto attacks. These spiders heal her for the number of hitpoints they still have. Verzik enters a healing phase for the first 2 cycles (8 ticks) after a new set of red crabs spawns. Any damage done to Verzik during this time heals her instead of damaging her.
• Additionally at 35%, Verzik will begin using a red healing magic attack. This slightly drains the players prayer when prayed against and does no damage. If not prayed against the magic attack will damage the player and heal Verzik.
• The 8 auto attacks Verzik does after 35% HP will cycle between the ranged bomb and the red magic attack.
• Make sure the exploding spiders deal appropriate damage for how far the player is from them (yellow numbers are max hits for normal mode TOB)
  https://i.imgur.com/POBwQHP.png

P3

• P3 Verzik needs a complete overhaul. She should not be static in one position for P3, allow her to move freely like she does in OSRS with one person delegated as the tank.
• To swap tanks, the current tank must be out of Verzik’s melee distance for 3 consecutive auto attacks without entering melee distance during that time. To prevent Verzik from meleeing the entire team for up to 60 damage, the tank must either step under or step 1-2 tiles away from Verzik 1-2 ticks before her next auto attack (every 7 game ticks during P3)
• Verzik’s mage attack and ranged attack change to a blue ball and green spikes and damage isn't calculated until they hit the player, allowing time for players to change prayers for each attack.

https://youtu.be/_oUe6rUdraU?t=932
Verzik P3 - OSRS One Minute Guide - YouTube

• Verzik has 4 special attacks that repeat in a cycle. Nylocas (like P2), Webs, Yellow Orbs, Green Bomb. To make things easier on Alora the green bomb special could be skipped or be exclusive to hard mode. Verzik would just cycle between the other 3 specials instead.
• At 20% HP purple tornados spawn that follow each individual player at walking speed. If hit by a tornado, it deals half the player's current HP and heals Verzik for that amount.
• In Hard Mode, tornadoes heal Verzik for the triple the amount they hit the player for.
• Under 20% HP Verzik attacks every 5 ticks instead of 7 during P3 but this count be left out or just be included for Hard Mode to increase difficulty.

Rewards:
While I don't necessarily think the rewards need a buff, I wouldn't be against a slight increase to the rate of uniques if the content is made more difficult, engaging, and the community wants it.

Good morning forums users/lurkers,

Yesterday I reached a big milestone in my account, I thought I’d share some info on the journey to 4.6b. Whether you’re a maxed ultimate ironman looking to pump those xp numbers up or a normal, functioning member of society repulsed at the thought of Nobankmanmode, hopefully you’ll find something interesting further down below. I owe a big thanks to my friends in the community for always giving me tips and motivation along the way, much love.

Taking a quick look at the methods I used:

Attack/Strength/Defence – A good amount of this was from general slayer/bossing, but I camped Vyres pretty hard for the rest:

I wound up getting 15 blood shards in total. These melee combats were actually a lot slower than I thought, I was averaging 3m xp/hr here.  Difficulty 5/10

Ranged – This was my first combat 200m, doing bossing and endgame content with a blowpipe was very quick to get.  Difficulty 3/10

Prayer – Almost entirely from Puro-Puro. Dragon imps give large noted drops of dragon/babydragon bones:

I didn’t want to risk the large amounts of bones in wildy, but obviously it would have been faster if you have wildy protection. If you would prefer not to spend hours and hours running in circles, an alternative method would be to use ash sanctifier/bone crusher while doing slayer. Difficulty 6/10

Magic – I barraged a lot of slayer tasks at Catacombs, this was the easiest combat skill to get.  Now that we have more rune shops than ever, you’ll only be limited by your cash stack to replenish those runes. Difficulty 2/10

Runecrafting – For all the runecrafting memes, I thought this one would be a lot worse. Crafting soul runes with dense essence is more afk than other methods, although as UIM we can’t bank all of our essence to save up on a runecrafting SOTD. No pet btw. Difficulty 6/10

Construction – I returned to the game after incense burners were removed, so I was dreading getting supplies. However, there was an update that added big quantities of noted teak and mahogany planks to the CoX drop table. I was grinding out Raids items and easily got enough planks for 200m along the way. After you get the supplies, this is one of the fastest skills (20m+ xp/hr). No pet btw. Difficulty 5/10

Hitpoints – Passive skill, you’ll get it from the others. Difficulty 0/10

Agility – Very boring, ran in many, many circles. Difficulty 7/10

Herblore – The hardest skill, this will be the biggest obstacle for any UIM going for 4.6b. We’re unable to use Kingdom, so that rules out a nice passive way of getting tons of noted herbs. There are a lot of different ways to tackle this, but almost all of them are painful.  Because I am an idiot who doesn’t use a looting bag or Zulrah/Hespori storage (personal preference), it was almost unbearable. I used a few different methods since my inventory was changing for various goals at the time.

For herbs:

1. CoX/ToB for noted Dwarf Weed, Toadflax and Snapdragon.
2. Herbiboar (got most of 200m hunter here) for all kinds of herbs.
3. Callisto and Venenatis for Noted Toadflax and Snapdragon (while getting secondaries).
4. Kurasks for Irit, Kwuarm and Cadantine seeds to farm herbs (while getting secondaries).

And these are where I got my secondaries from:

1. Crushed Nests – Callisto, I was going for pet/log so I went here instead of Mole.
   

   

2. Red Spider Eggs – Venenatis and looting from Forthos Dungeon (8 spawns).
3. Zammy Wines – I didn’t have enough room in my inventory to save the ones from ToB, so I instead looted a couple hundred at a time from the wildy altar (4 spawns, noted).
4. White Berries/Limpwurt Roots – Kurasks, I didn’t think growing these from seeds received from farming contracts was worth it.
5. Eye of Newts – Paul

I didn’t bother with making Super Combats, because holding Torstols in my inventory on top of all these other supplies was just too cluttered, and it just seemed like more work than it was worth. Daily task shop sells them anyway, who needs herblore for that? Difficulty 11/10

Thieving – I grinded this out at the super donor stall two years ago, don’t really remember much about it other than lots of clicking while watching movies. Difficulty 5/10

Crafting – I used five main methods:

1. Cutting gems received from CoX and ToB.
2. Cutting gems/crafting dhide bodies from Callisto and Venenatis.
3. Glassblowing at charter shops.
4. Making amethyst dart tips from 200m mining grind for blowpipe.
5. Cutting dense essence blocks during the 200m runecrafting grind.

One of the harder skills to do, it’s not even that quick after you go through all the effort of getting the supplies (like construction). I haven’t done any Gauntlet, but I think that really would have helped speed up this skill for me. Difficulty 8/10

Fletching – I had tons of supplies from Puro-Puro (dragon dart tips/dragon arrowtips/etc) during the 200m prayer grind. If you save up a bunch of vote points you can always just load up on rune bars to turn into dart tips. For the rest I did amethyst darts to put in my blowpipe. Obviously when you have all the supplies, this skill is very, VERY fast in wildy (rip your wrists though). Difficulty 4/10

Slayer – One of the hardest skills, I saved this one for last. For almost all of the 200m grind I barraged nechryaels and dust devils in Catacombs on Konar tasks... this was about 3m xp/hr. For the last 10m xp or so, I did Zuk tasks, which give 4.4m xp per task (takes about 50 minutes with suiciding + gearing + completing the run). Picked up a cool pet the run before getting 200m:

I think if I did this over, I would have started Inferno tasks much, much sooner. Difficulty 9/10

Hunter – I used two methods, both have their pros and cons. Red chins are faster xp than Herbiboar, but not by much. It has the benefit of not needing much inventory space, but you don’t end up using the chins at all. Also, if another player is in the best spot at ::DZ, you have to go do something else or use a less optimal spot (which means less xp). Herbiboar is less click intensive and gave noted herbs (donor perk) that I needed for 200m herb. NEITHER PET(Baby Chin and Herbi)?!?   Difficulty 7/10

Mining – I tried to get to as many Shooting Stars as possible for the initial xp drop of finding it first. The rest was done at Amethyst.  Difficulty 4/10

Smithing – This skill should pretty much be renamed “Gold Smelting at Blast Furnace”. The only barrier to this 200m is getting enough gold ore. My main sources were CoX/ToB, wilderness bosses, and buying the stock from Blast Furnace shop. Buying the gold ore was especially annoying to do, because my inventory was so cluttered I had to suicide every time I wanted to buy out the entire stock of 500.  Difficulty 8/10

Fishing/Cooking – Afk skills that go together, not too fast and not too slow.  Difficulty 4/10

Woodcutting/Firemaking – These were the initial 200ms that I grinded out for monkey back in the day. Woodcutting at redwoods was a relatively quick and afk skill, the only annoyance was how often the redwood trees would be completely bugged. Firemaking was very fast, just set your home tele to Varrock, burn a line down to the Varrock bank and repeat. Difficulty 2/10

Farming – The huge xp drops from higher-end trees/fruit trees/Calquats make this skill easy. Seed box is a big help for UIM, as we don’t have access to the seed vault. Difficulty 3/10

And here’s a final look at my skilling pets collection log during this grind to 4.6b.

Onto the next goal (new post coming soonTM), thanks for reading!
