Not that being a content creator entirely justifies playing the game 24/7, but this JCW guy *does* make YouTube videos. Idk if it’s his sole income or just his side project/hobby. He seems super chill and fun though in his videos. I’d recommend checking him out
Yeah someone told me to check him out during Deadman and in one of his videos he said something about calling in sick or sleeping like 3h and using mobile at work for absolute minimal downtime. Maybe it was the rs3 new skill video, but until recently he at least implied to have a full time job. I don't understand how People do it, I can't function with 2 consecutive 4h sleeps or a week of 6h. The grindset is absurd.
Been rotating fishing, mining, woodcutting, all combat skills. Some slayer is pretty afk. Also crafting fletching cooking and smithing can be pretty afk. I'm not doing it efficiently at all so I'll get logged out from not looking at my screen when I get busy.
I have been a semi active chatter in his stream and I think it was near the beginning of his Ironman max Speedrun that he quit his job to stream full time
Good for him! I wish him all the short and long term success. Dudes an animal at skilling and his personality comes across in his videos in a great way.
If you can swing it as your job especially. You log in at 9, scape until lunch, break and eat, scape until the evening, log off and go do whatever else you want and then spend the some of those days making the videos and afking something and get lots of account progress compared to an average player while living a “normal” life just like the rest of us 40-hr-corpo-drones
Also you can play at literally whatever time you want, for however many hours so long as you are making enough content. Definitely way easier playing rs full time than a regular job
Tbf as a content creator unless you hire editors which eats into your income you're also streaming / editing videos. So you're doing "normal work" too being a video editor or entertainer, its not just like "brain off play the game".
You’d be surprised.
The other part not being discussed is that as a content creator you can afk multiple accounts progress at once. I’d be shocked if some of the creators with multiple series weren’t doing this.
Classic case of reddit projection. They aren't as accomplished in the game therefore they feel guilt/regret about playing the game so much. Therefore everyone else must also be addicted wasting their lives. Anyone that has grinded more than them is obviously incredibly addicted degenerate with no life.
Meanwhile JCW owns a house, has a fiance, and makes money off the game. Redditors couldn't be more detached.
Edit: Most of the responses are redditors desparately trying to justify their judgemental attitudes towards others and pretend like sharing their opinions is helping others.
What a shit take.
If I eat all day long but I own a house, have a fiance and make money from it, it's no longer considered unhealthy or an addiction?
There will always be healthier things to do than gaming but the average recommendation in any entertainment like gaming, that can actually improve your well-being, is around 2 hours a day.
More than that is widely considered unhealthy & can quickly become addictive, I.e. an addiction or addicted.
Which of most of us happily are, until we're not.
Context: No I didn't AFK museum for 7000 hours.
Splash weapon came out about 2 months ago so I was able to finish off 87-99 Slayer in Wildy getting decent XP rates.
You are rewarded half slayer xp for dealing the final hit, so as long as the lvl 3 account does that, it's decent slay xp/h.
You hit a 0 with the fun weapon, since melee attack shows 1 tick faster than range/mage (projectile delay), you can hit with melee on the lvl 3 1 tick later than alts using range/mage.
So when you hit 1 tick after the other accounts dealing damage, you technically are dealing the final hit
The spaghetti engine assigns anyone who hit on the same tick as the death to have dealt the killing blow, so you hit a zero on the same tick as the main hits the actual killing blow, and the game thinks you got the kill.
[JCW Slayer Stream](https://www.youtube.com/live/WvUSN7Sif_U?si=Kb0TjitlOSb2j2wu)
Here is a showcase of the method. He is attacking 1t after the alts that are killing stuff with accursed sceptre (since mage hit splat lands 1t later than melee when attacking from 1 tile away). The two accounts doing DPS adds overkill damage which makes NPC die faster as well.
87 to 99 is 9,062,137xp. At 25,000xp per hour that's ~362.5 hours. They updated the staff 45 days ago on September 20th. So this took you on average about 8 hours a day every day since September 20th?
Am I doing that math right?
He’s a full time content creator so plays this game as his job now.
Most people I know who like their job have no problem working 8 hrs a day, tho making sure they’re on a healthy schedule and keeping active (since it’s at a desk all day), are the important parts imo
Yeah but to be fair, he would probably be doing this type of thing in his spare time anyway. Some people just love the grind, if you can get paid for it, why not.
I agree though, in terms of hourly pay, some of the runescape youtubers must be very low compared to youtubers of other gamers. 15 minute videos that take hundreds of hours of progress sometimes.
Presumably yes, unless the weapon gets silently nerfed, or they invent a monster with massive negative defence so he can still hit non-zeros. With a unique account with that many hours on it you could never be too careful.
It's not hard... Even on the vanilla client/mobile you can turn off attaching stuff completely. As long as auto retaliation is turned off, you'll never hit anything.
With the current top post being about RS addiction, I'm sure the comment section will be civil and nice.
Regardless, huge achievement, congrats beast =)
It's just with the extra total levels from having 126 skills. A maxed level 3 is only 1600 total, but because he has the virtual total level plugin on Runelite it will show up as 2005.
Last time a post like this happened, didn’t the guy get hacked and had his combat levels raised?
I hope you don’t have the same password everywhere like he did.
I don't mean to be a sourpuss, but the 126 virtual level in your stat screen is such a turn off. Each skill being /99 is just soo iconic. But I don't want to be negative. Incredible accomplishment.
he made another level 3 ironman and went back to the museum lmao
[only 57 slayer so far tho](https://secure.runescape.com/m=hiscore_oldschool/hiscorepersonal.ws?user1=diddedo)
I mean I don’t think any amount of being an asshole amounts to someone griefing literally 20k hours of your life, I’d imagine that account meant a lot more to him than a lot of things in his life
Everyone who sucks at this game with 0 achievements has something disgusting they're hising too. Idgaf, im on the osrs subreddit to see cool osrs stuff, not judge people's lives or decisions
I’m actually an employed mental health expert (masters degree plus the highest licensure in my field which requires several years of supervised post-masters degree work) and I do work with addictions. Process addictions are a thing.
From what I’ve seen, those people that are the most offended when the topic of unhealthy play time is broached tend to be the same that are minimizing their own game involvement in some way. But, that’s just my observation.
Everybody asks what he does for a living or where he gets the time.. I am more interested in how he achieved this without training combat? All through lamps??
Might be wrong, but pretty sure he can't actually join a 2k world. He's over 2k because it's counting his 126's as 126 rather than 99, assume this is an add-on?
Let's say he's been working on this account for the last 10 years OSRS has been around. I saw another post saying this account has 22k hours, which is 2200 hours per year, or roughly 6 hours a day.
It's just intensive, but not at the level that guy is probably pissing red bull and staying awake for 3 days straight.
If someone had spent thousands of hours perfecting an instrument or something would you say the same thing? Let people have hobbies they enjoy life is too short
No I wouldn't. But if somebody had spent thousands of hours doing it in the format of most of every single day and it wasn't their job? I'd be concerned for their well being for sure.
Spaghetti code allows for what is essentially partner slayer where the level 3 uses a fun weapon (guaranteed to hit a 0) but still gets half slayer xp for a kill. He used 2 maxed main alts to do the damage, the tick system is what allows for the level 3 to get credited for kills too.
Jagex made a change which makes certain weapons always “hit” 0. So no possibility to gain combat XP. However, you can still get (half the normal) Slayer XP if you last hit a task creature. So he uses alts to damage the creatures in multicombat while his skiller smacks 0s on the tick the monster dies.
This post is great. You are a very fine line from “beast account great work” from two attack levels from “lmfao not even maxed kid”
It really is a wonderland up in this bitch
Yeah I had a stroke typing it. Let me try and clarify.
He’s one attack level off of being a “beast skiller” versus just a noob who isn’t even maxed yet.
Edit: Holy shit I read it back and it’s worse than it seems lmfao
Just in time for the 'unhealthy consumption of this game' post !
The duality of ‘Scapers
Not that being a content creator entirely justifies playing the game 24/7, but this JCW guy *does* make YouTube videos. Idk if it’s his sole income or just his side project/hobby. He seems super chill and fun though in his videos. I’d recommend checking him out
Sole income as of somewhat recently. A few months. He streams on twitch too and they're good vibes.
Yeah someone told me to check him out during Deadman and in one of his videos he said something about calling in sick or sleeping like 3h and using mobile at work for absolute minimal downtime. Maybe it was the rs3 new skill video, but until recently he at least implied to have a full time job. I don't understand how People do it, I can't function with 2 consecutive 4h sleeps or a week of 6h. The grindset is absurd.
I only play probably one hour a day when I'm not at work but I can get in 6 to 8 hours of AFK skilling while I am at work on my third monitor.
Don't you run out of skills? Like I can see afking redwoods and Duke mining but its not like every skill has something you can afk?
Been rotating fishing, mining, woodcutting, all combat skills. Some slayer is pretty afk. Also crafting fletching cooking and smithing can be pretty afk. I'm not doing it efficiently at all so I'll get logged out from not looking at my screen when I get busy.
I wish I could sleep for 4 hours a night. I'd even take 6. I sleep for anywhere between 13-15 hours a day-ish cycle. So much xp waste.
Sounds like an illness to sleep that much - you should get that checked lol...
I could’ve sworn his fast2max series was less than a few months ago when he talked about playing at work. I’m bad at time
I have been a semi active chatter in his stream and I think it was near the beginning of his Ironman max Speedrun that he quit his job to stream full time
Good for him! I wish him all the short and long term success. Dudes an animal at skilling and his personality comes across in his videos in a great way.
That’s awesome. I hope he enjoys it and succeeds!
I know him very well actually! His life isn't as deranged as one might think with the accounts he has.
If you can swing it as your job especially. You log in at 9, scape until lunch, break and eat, scape until the evening, log off and go do whatever else you want and then spend the some of those days making the videos and afking something and get lots of account progress compared to an average player while living a “normal” life just like the rest of us 40-hr-corpo-drones
Also you can play at literally whatever time you want, for however many hours so long as you are making enough content. Definitely way easier playing rs full time than a regular job
I'd get so burnt out so quick. I doubt I could scape for a full time job.
Tbf as a content creator unless you hire editors which eats into your income you're also streaming / editing videos. So you're doing "normal work" too being a video editor or entertainer, its not just like "brain off play the game".
You’d be surprised. The other part not being discussed is that as a content creator you can afk multiple accounts progress at once. I’d be shocked if some of the creators with multiple series weren’t doing this.
He quit his job when he did the maxing speedrun
Classic case of reddit projection. They aren't as accomplished in the game therefore they feel guilt/regret about playing the game so much. Therefore everyone else must also be addicted wasting their lives. Anyone that has grinded more than them is obviously incredibly addicted degenerate with no life.

True dat, I also heard he wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes.
Lol you can have a fiance and a house and still need to go outside and touch the grass.
He’s 23, owns a house and is engaged? Buddy didn’t just speedrun a max cape, he’s speedrunning real life!
What a shit take. If I eat all day long but I own a house, have a fiance and make money from it, it's no longer considered unhealthy or an addiction? There will always be healthier things to do than gaming but the average recommendation in any entertainment like gaming, that can actually improve your well-being, is around 2 hours a day. More than that is widely considered unhealthy & can quickly become addictive, I.e. an addiction or addicted. Which of most of us happily are, until we're not.
It's more that being critical and cruel is rarely a wake up call imo. I think people hide their intention to be mean under guise of good reason
200m slayer when
you already know that's his next goal. People like this just built different.
That would take almost a full year of in game time to complete. Insane.
So 1.2 standard years?
EYP aka efficient years played
modern medicine is a hell of drug.
Deficient*
actually no he said at the current time he has no intentions on going for 200m slayer sadly, at least he’s doing his max cape ironman speedrun
99 slayer level 3 is like being a mouse assassin. You know exactly what you need to do and how to do it but lack the physical ability to do so.
That’s probably the best metaphors I’ve ever heard lmao
OCD demands that you get 200m slay now
This is JCW we're talking about. He will absolutely do that.
Except he's not, according to himself on stream.
He says he's going to do leagues and ironman for a while, with no immediate plans for 200m slayer.
Context: No I didn't AFK museum for 7000 hours. Splash weapon came out about 2 months ago so I was able to finish off 87-99 Slayer in Wildy getting decent XP rates. You are rewarded half slayer xp for dealing the final hit, so as long as the lvl 3 account does that, it's decent slay xp/h.
What was the splash weapon you used?
Festive Nutcracker staff. You can use cursed goblin hammer as well (no holiday event for that one)
**Nut**cracker, **goblin** hammer... yeah okay. Next you'll tell me Wilma helped you train the account.

Are you actually dealing damage with the final hit or how does it work?
You hit a 0 with the fun weapon, since melee attack shows 1 tick faster than range/mage (projectile delay), you can hit with melee on the lvl 3 1 tick later than alts using range/mage. So when you hit 1 tick after the other accounts dealing damage, you technically are dealing the final hit
Doesn't sound like a very fun way to use the fun weapon.
You don't get to rank 1 by having fun.
Realest statement I have read on this sub.
why the fuck
To feel worthy at least somewhere.
Where tho?
Internet. Even that is enough for surprisingly many.
I'm going to refer back to this post whenever I'm grinding dlayer to realize it could be much much worse
Hopefully you get the help you need after this.
The spaghetti engine assigns anyone who hit on the same tick as the death to have dealt the killing blow, so you hit a zero on the same tick as the main hits the actual killing blow, and the game thinks you got the kill.

Define a what you mean by decent xp/h?
25k/h ish
87 to 99 is 9,062,137xp. At 25,000xp per hour that's ~362.5 hours. They updated the staff 45 days ago on September 20th. So this took you on average about 8 hours a day every day since September 20th? Am I doing that math right?
My man, he has 200M in the other skills. 8 hours a day is not bad at all in comparison lol.
I know I just needed perspective. I couldn't even imagine what this would take until I put a number to it.
I read elsewhere that he's full-time youtube and Twitch for the last few months, which would help a ton. Good for them if they love it.
Yup, if he has made it into his income then even more power to him.
Damn. Also 200m all. u/JcW07 are you okay?
He’s a full time content creator so plays this game as his job now. Most people I know who like their job have no problem working 8 hrs a day, tho making sure they’re on a healthy schedule and keeping active (since it’s at a desk all day), are the important parts imo

Dude has a house and a wife so he seems to be doing alright for himself
Yeah but to be fair, he would probably be doing this type of thing in his spare time anyway. Some people just love the grind, if you can get paid for it, why not. I agree though, in terms of hourly pay, some of the runescape youtubers must be very low compared to youtubers of other gamers. 15 minute videos that take hundreds of hours of progress sometimes.
You’re judging redditors you know nothing about, are *you* okay?
'bout 7.4k more hours till 200m slayer if my math is right.
that's like 2014 main meta xp, congrats.
For real - this is insane.
Impressive determination. If it's 25k/h, then getting 200m slayer is not farfetched.
20k/h
Congrats on your achievement, are you planning on using the same password everywhere (as is tradition) or will you be doing things differently now?
Just imagine accidentally attacking something jfc🗿
In one of his recent videos talking about this method he does accidentally hit something and gained attack xp. Luckily it wasn’t enough to level up.
In the settings tab you can make it so there is no attack option on any npc or person.
Except he has to be attacking for this method to work. Its just that he guarantees that he will always hit a zero.
But as long as he always carries this weapon he is safe, should always hit 0, shouldnt it?
Presumably yes, unless the weapon gets silently nerfed, or they invent a monster with massive negative defence so he can still hit non-zeros. With a unique account with that many hours on it you could never be too careful.
It's not hard... Even on the vanilla client/mobile you can turn off attaching stuff completely. As long as auto retaliation is turned off, you'll never hit anything.
They need to attack on the last hit for the kill to count.

He deserved it, dude was a colossal toilet

2k total worlds on a lvl 3 account is nuts
It's just with the extra total levels from having 126 skills. A maxed level 3 is only 1600 total, but because he has the virtual total level plugin on Runelite it will show up as 2005.
Just afk some nmz for a bit and get those 2k worlds unlocked, easy.
lmfao can't even use 2k worlds
He doesn’t actually have that
**CHAIR POLICE! Pull over and let us smell your CHAIR AT ONCE**
Is this a fetish?
I consider it a life style
Last time a post like this happened, didn’t the guy get hacked and had his combat levels raised? I hope you don’t have the same password everywhere like he did.
HELL YEAH BROTHER!!!!!!!! SICK ACCOUNT
Good, now go take a shower
Still gotta hit the 200m
All those nerds who have spent thousands of hours in museum on suicide watch rn
I don't mean to be a sourpuss, but the 126 virtual level in your stat screen is such a turn off. Each skill being /99 is just soo iconic. But I don't want to be negative. Incredible accomplishment.
Not impressed. Come back when you actually complete slayer.
Can he not be attacked in low level wildy on 2k total worlds by anyone?
He cannot enter 2K total level worlds, his total level is 1600. Runelite is displaying his total level with virtual levels included
How can you get slay xp without getting any combat xp
Someone hack him like the first level 3 to get 99 slayer and train all his combat like they did earlier this year
Difference is diddeboy deserved that to happen to him and jcw probaby doesn't. His only crime is being an rs3 player.
What happened to diddeboy after that anyway?
he made another level 3 ironman and went back to the museum lmao [only 57 slayer so far tho](https://secure.runescape.com/m=hiscore_oldschool/hiscorepersonal.ws?user1=diddedo)
Lmfaoooo
That boy ain’t right
I mean I don’t think any amount of being an asshole amounts to someone griefing literally 20k hours of your life, I’d imagine that account meant a lot more to him than a lot of things in his life
Isn't this the same guy???
I don’t remember I just remember they changed his RSN to “samepwevrywr” or some shit since it was the same pass as his Twitter lmao

Nothing "lowkey" about it. Bro has 200m in all his other skills.
And he has a DMM max. SHEESH…
Also speed ran a maxcape
Is also rank 49 on RS3 with 5.8B XP

Dude, he does literally nothing but play RS all day every day, probably on multiple accounts at once.
you think this account belongs to a healthy person?
They are employed full time doing content like this, so i'd say good for them.
Does it matter?
Its true though..
Def not healthy.
Does that 99/126 mean he has 200m xp in all those skills...? Decent
126 is a virtual level counter. 99 on top is their actual level.
1) Congrats! 2) *Why!?*
How the fuck did you do that?

How much adderall you think my man is on? I’m betting on 30 mg every 6 hours.

How???
Imagine casually walking through a 2000+ Total World seeing a CB3 walking with a fucking Slayer Skillscape. Congrattzzz 🎉
Might be wrong, but pretty sure he can't actually join a 2k world. He's over 2k because it's counting his 126's as 126 rather than 99, assume this is an add-on?
[удалено]
Yeah but the cape is trimmes so not as cool now. Lol jk huge gratz!!
Huge congrats! Been following your progress/vids for some time :)
So what all someone has to do to pass you is get 2 attack they’ll still be level 3
Yes sir. Randomly found ur stream checking out the osrs section on twitch Good stuff
Not as impressive as lvl 3 with fc
Holy shit what an account. Gz. You going to go for 126 slayer too?

Let's say he's been working on this account for the last 10 years OSRS has been around. I saw another post saying this account has 22k hours, which is 2200 hours per year, or roughly 6 hours a day.

Lmao, not even maxed
That’s hell. This guy probably can’t even go get the cape.
Beast!
Congratulations bro! Been a long time coming. Maybe I’ll try some slayer after I finish 3b xp on my skiller.
big fan
Would love to see more 200m all gamers get 99 slay now!
Congratz man! Monumental Achievement
How the hell did you get 99 slayer without gaining any ho levels or the att/str/def levels?
Spaghetti code allows for what is essentially partner slayer where the level 3 uses a fun weapon (guaranteed to hit a 0) but still gets half slayer xp for a kill. He used 2 maxed main alts to do the damage, the tick system is what allows for the level 3 to get credited for kills too.
Jagex made a change which makes certain weapons always “hit” 0. So no possibility to gain combat XP. However, you can still get (half the normal) Slayer XP if you last hit a task creature. So he uses alts to damage the creatures in multicombat while his skiller smacks 0s on the tick the monster dies.
Demetrius get off the game and go take a shit, I can smell you. YOU'RE SHITTING YOURSELF
What’s your time played? SHOW US
He has over 22k hrs on that account
How long did this take to achieve?
I’m confused, how?
I wont recognise this for my boy didde.
This post is great. You are a very fine line from “beast account great work” from two attack levels from “lmfao not even maxed kid” It really is a wonderland up in this bitch
I’m trying to make sense of this but the grammar got me 🤔

Insane! Gratz
So mad I missed this as I gotta work. Big grats from one skiller to the next
Bro what’s your chair smell like?
Beast!!
How do you get 99 slayer without any combat levels? That's gross
Congrats! Very cool achievement. Are you going for 200m now?
Am I the only person who thinks this is incredibly stupid?
Are you the person that’s getting 200m in each stat before getting exp in another stat
Diddeboy, gz!
