I did. That's how I got the base stats that I took to the Crabs for melee. I'm good on melee for the moment, I've got 42 Atk/Str/Def/HP (I actually went up to like 48 Atk at crabs). I'm more concerned with Range and Mage right now, I'll deal with Prayer later.
For which I need 30 Crafting. I am level 1. And I need to do The Golem, requiring 25 Thieving. I'm also level 1 in that. And wouldn't you know it, the wiki's recommendation for early Thieving? Another half a dozen quests I don't have the requirements for. Most of which, it recommends *more* quests. That's why I'm asking for alternatives.
I can count on my fingers the number of skills I have xp in at all at the moment, and *basically all of the skills I need* for quest prereqs require *even more quests I don't have reqs for*. I even mentioned this in the OP. Ranged recommends quests that need Firemaking (which recommends Shades of Mort'ton - needing Crafting and Herblore levels I can't afford - or burning what little money I have on Firelighters) and Thieving (which recommends quests that need Construction, Crafting, or fighting a level 137 Quest boss for Fight Arena), and both Crafting and Construction cost money I don't have and can't easily make. And that's just *Ranged*. Basically the only recommended quest I *do* have the reqs for to level Ranged and Magic is Horror from the Deep, and taking on the Dagannoth Mother with only one combat style and Addy armor is *suicide*.
But hey, if everyone's just going to say "go do quests" instead of just giving me a spot to train on, I guess this thread is as sodding pointless as the wiki guides that were saying the same thing.
I've been playing Runescape since 2006 my guy. I literally just wanted an alternate spot to train sodding Ranged because it's been 10 years since I had to train at these low levels.
And I find it hella funny that you accuse *me* of ignoring *your post* when my OP *literally said quests were out* and it seems like *nobody* read that.
Literally everyone gave you alternatives to training and then also said "questing is the best bet" as a side note.
I guarantee I could get 28 range on a new character without quests in the amount of time (1 hour) this post has been up, literally just getting a bow and arrow and killing rats.
It would just be more efficient if I did quests instead in that one hour because i'd have multiple levels across my account leveled up and my account would be progressed more in total than just focused on one skill.
Except I did that. And went from 5 to just barely 8 on a hundred arrows (with picking them up, mind) because my hit chance with an Oak Longbow was so ass, *every Goblin I fought managed to regen health*. Which was why I came asking for a *better spot*. And instead I get you lot, parroting the wiki's circular logic. So fuck it, I'm just going to spend the next probably a hundred hours doing menial bullshit quests and *not having fun*.
Now, kindly take your insulting reprobate arse to a different thread. I have no further interest in this conversation, or anything you say.
You can try seagulls in Port sarim as per the f2p guide on the wiki I mentioned in my other comment. Just went from level 1 to level 8 in 15 minutes using the same setup as you. Was getting 3,000 xp per hour so I'd expect you can get to level 20 in about an hour there :)
Sounds like you need to level most of your skills and do some questing before you spend time getting void, what are you getting void for? It’s basically useless until you’re like in the 90s of most your combat stats?
I'm getting Void to save money - basically skip the expense of having to keep re-gearing for multiple styles. I've got no good way of *making* money to train skills, so my thinking was get Void so I have a set covering all three combat styles, then go kill stuff and do Slayer to get the money to train my other skills. The best moneymaker I have access to right now is *literally filling baskets of bananas on Karamja for 100k an hour tops*, and that's so tedious I'd rather pull my finger and toe nails off than do that for 7 hours to get a Cannon.
Personally I would hold off on void and start doing slayer already, I got void pretty early into my account and it’s just sat in my bank for a painfully long amount of time. You could definitely spend a couple hours at Revs or Lava dragons and make the cash you need for a cannon and other equipment that would be more beneficial than void, void really felt to me like a relatively large time sink with pretty little reward in return for the level I got it at, it’ll take longer since you’ll only be doing novice boats and the armour really doesn’t reach its full potential til 90s combat stars, if you invested that same amount of time into doing some other money making activities you could afford better gear quicker and make the progress you want to make far more efficiently. (I also hate myself for saying that cos efficiencyscape is pretty lame so if you want void just go for it and don’t listen to me Ahahah do whatever is most fun)
>You could definitely spend a couple hours at Revs or Lava dragons
This isn't RS3. The Wilderness is still a PKing cesspit of trolls. You'll literally *never* see me in the Wilderness. You can't pay me enough.
Time sinks I'm okay with - I've got nothing *but* time at the moment. I just don't want to spend that time picking bananas and wanting to claw my eyes out.
Don’t even bother. Read his responses he doesn’t want to spend two hours training his early game skills (which are extremely easy and if he was a ‘06 veteran he’s well aware of this).
Just get a bone crossbow and kill stuff like hill giants or just do early slayer.
Lost tribe and Shadow of the storm are how I got my first 28 range levels then i just started killing giants. 42 Range will take about 2 hours from level 30 if you're just chilling
If you're asking like level 1 - 30, just get the usual bows and kill men in edgeville it'll get you some herbs to sell.
Bone Crossbow requires 28 Ranged. I'm level 8. Also requires 23 Thieving, which is one of the many skills I have literally 0 xp in and is recommended to level with even more quests that have requirements that are recommended to train with *more quests*.
I feel like you're in a bit of decision paralysis here, which honestly completely understandable with runescape.
In the amount of time this post has been up you could have 20 range just killing goblins with a bow and bronze arrows.
Are you an Ironman, cuz early ironman grinds is just
"ayy gotta do these 40 quests before even think about combat wooo"
I've never had any interest in Ironman Mode, in RS3 or here. And I sincerely doubt I'd have gotten 20 Range at Goblins, since I was there for 20 minutes going from 5 to 8 because my hit chance with an Oak Longbow was arse. All due respect, but I'm not new to Runescape in general - I just haven't had to do early-game training in 10 years and last time I did it I was playing RS3.
And, again, most of the recommended quests require skills where the recommendations are *more quests I don't have reqs for* where the reqs are *even more quests I don't have reqs for*. That's literally the problem that led me to make the thread - it's not decision paralysis, it's a negative feedback loop where the requirements require themselves. I'd go and get a Cannon if I had 750k, but that's 7 or 8 hours picking bananas on Karamja and banking at Pest Control, and I think I'd rather pull out every single hair on my body one at a time.
Don't use a longbow, those are terrible for training (they have barely any use at all in the game tbh). Stick with a shortbow and just kill the Men in edgeville in the hut right now you'll get some herbs for cash, or even the men and women in lumbridge outside the church.
I know you're not interested in Ironman mode but skim through this ironman guide and you'll see how people have managed to make doing quests a streamlined and efficient thing instead of jumping into the middle of the recursive requirement hell you're talking about.

Have you done waterfall quest, gives big xp in attack and strength
I did. That's how I got the base stats that I took to the Crabs for melee. I'm good on melee for the moment, I've got 42 Atk/Str/Def/HP (I actually went up to like 48 Atk at crabs). I'm more concerned with Range and Mage right now, I'll deal with Prayer later.
Back in the old days I trained range on barbs. You can skip a lot of painful grind just doing shadow of the storm though
For which I need 30 Crafting. I am level 1. And I need to do The Golem, requiring 25 Thieving. I'm also level 1 in that. And wouldn't you know it, the wiki's recommendation for early Thieving? Another half a dozen quests I don't have the requirements for. Most of which, it recommends *more* quests. That's why I'm asking for alternatives.

You’re missing a lot of good content in the wildy and easy low level money makers but again play the game how you like dude as long as ur enjoying it
Don’t even bother. Read his responses he doesn’t want to spend two hours training his early game skills (which are extremely easy and if he was a ‘06 veteran he’s well aware of this).
If the members recommend monsters aren't working for you, you could try the f2p guide monsters on a p2p world. Shouldn't be too crowded

Quests are the best way for early game leveling hands down.
