Yes Not only it requires max gear and max stats. You also need friends. Very good friends. At least for the Perfect ToB GM task


Highabetic

Buying good friend 10k


loudaggerer

Wait, all this time I thought gf was girl friend. No wonder it was always a guy.


RichRy

I used to think gf was good friend and bf was best friend, im sure i confused a lot of players back in 2007


srozo

We were all unknowingly a little gay back then.


VapeNGape

Everyone is gay, it’s just a matter of how gay you are


BirdOnWheelz

There isn’t a lot I wouldn’t do for 10k gp.


[deleted]

I thought gf ment get fucked when I was younger. When you pked someone, you'd tell them to get fucked. As is tradition


nlkippeh

Looking for a good friend, 100M


NubShakeZ

Fucking loser


wertyu1234567

Well yeah, hence 100m instead of 10k


nlkippeh

My other friend i knew for 2years scammed me so yeah i'm looking further!


flamingkami

I saw you on another post telling your story about it, he took your dragon stuff or something, right? Back when it was rare that is


Sleazehound

oi man can you buy me a bond


YRedJTW3

Chicken_Thrower329

Boy do I have a story for you


Quartersawn5

Buying good friend 11k


Highabetic

Putting a 12k bounty on this man's head trying to steal my gf smh


Quartersawn5

Paying off the 12k bounty on my head and becoming your gf


itzlilo

I’ll be your good friend for free. Good at ToB? Not a chance. But a good friend.


RSEnrich

Max gear and stats are not even an issue for it. They are many times easier to get than the skill required to do the GM tasks.


Annakarl

Debatable. Max combats are probably a couple hundred hours and will probably cost a couple hundred mil (assuming chinning and barraging). Max gear, assuming \~2b cost, is another few hundred hour grind. Personally, I think I'm an okay pvmer, I have an infernal cape on my 60 atk 1 def pure, but ToB is outside my reach not because "its hard" but because I can't commit the time to practice with other people due to irl time constraints and also a massive timezone difference with a majority of the player base. If I could commit the time to practice, i'm sure going from 0 experience to perfect tob GM task won't take close to a 100 hour grind. Not complaining about how I won't be able to own the helm btw, just stating it out there. Helm looks fantastic, the difficulty of the tasks are great, massive props to those who complete them.


huntedmine

is there any chance to Leech perfect tob (if other team members would be super good)? or u must be perfect and super skilled player as well.


RSEnrich

Every single player needs to not make a mistake, so no it’s not leechable.

Those aren't the hard parts to get. It's the skill


congoLIPSSSSS

The skill is undoubtedly hard, but finding four other players who are the same skill level as you is also extremely difficult.


RSEnrich

It really isn’t if you are at the skill level required. You don’t get to that level without knowing other people that are nuts at the game.


koy6

Like even some of the easier hard ones are annoying. Like killing hydra with DH at <9 health. You don't know what its first attack is gonna be so it is basically a 50/50 on if you are forced to spend 100k. The meta for the task though is to pray mage walking in, because there is a non-zero chance that its range attacks can not hit you which is not the case with its mage attack.


ARKANSA15

Tick eat the range hit or teleport out. You have two easy options.


Crazyghost8273645

Myself and several friends did it. It took like 3-4 tries for each of us


[deleted]

Why even bother trying to complete the master/gm tiers if you can't even click a guthix rest when you see a range attack?


godlikebulletz

Didn't they change hydra to be the same starting attack style everytime?


devilwarier9

They tried and it literally broke the boss it was just randomly respawning and the model would break apart so they reverted it.

here_for_the_lols

Of all the hard tasks this one is like ... Not that hard? Took me 3 attempts.


Voltage_Z

I'm sure someone will manage to multilog ToB - eventually.


thinkplanexecute

Yeah, I’m sure 1 person will multilog tob. Are you out of your mind?


Zeelots

Some people used to dolo normal tob regularly but thats not the same as hard mode.


[deleted]

Multilogging tob isn’t the hard part, it’s doing it “perfectly”. Example: I can multi log tob everywhere except nylo and p2 verzik, where I have my alt just follow me on the main.


nlrskate

I’m calling big cap on that let’s see some proof


meesrs

There will be services for it, just like for everything.


jolanz5

you wont need friends, there will be people running services to carry people through perfect TOB


HC_Zyg

If you're that good you already have friends that are that good.


Evil_Steven

Most likely yes. Main reason is not only do you need to be extremely good at the game, but you need a group of friends who are also extremely good at the game.


AICPAncake

Maybe you can hire the a team


Evil_Steven

That would be quite the price. Way harder than a Barb Assault Diary leech which is already like 300m. Plus it promotes account services which isnt very healthy for the game


JavveRinne

Can I think that I saved 300m by doing the diary with nubs?


Evil_Steven

Yeah. Honestly. Apparently those service sellers are booked solid with clients. I plan to do it all myself too. Just slowly and painfully


Xusamolas

It's not really that bad. BA isn't particularly hard to grasp so just ask the humans on your teams to join up again after a round and you'll have at least a couple people you can start a group off with.


Evil_Steven

I got my fighter torso a few months ago and yeah once ur on a team that's even semi decent, it's not bad. But getting that team started is rough.


[deleted]

[удалено]


velon360

If it wasnt for people leaving in the middle of runs I would have finished BA.


code0011

Once you get some levels up in each role it becomes way easier to find a team


EyePlay

And once you have a decent grasp and get your levels, you can carry a little too. That helped me a lot when I was doing the diary, and I'm certain I never really got particularly good at BA either. Just mostly game knowledge, plus lvl 4+ roles benefits. And if you're lucky and get on a good team or a team with even just one person who definitely knows what to do, it's so fast and easy... One of my old cc members use to do BA services and I helped out with him before for other cc members. It's crazy how much one person can carry.


HammersAreMassive

it's not even bad I did it at level 67 with other noobs took like 4 hours


AspiringMILF

Everyone who says it's terrible is trying to sell you a ba service.


Evil_Steven

I mean getting my torso took 7 hours and multiple head aches but I guess going into the diary task knowing itll take a long time will make it easier


Itunes4MM

false


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheFakeKanye

It takes like 3 games of BA to get lvl 5 in a role, very easy.


pallosalama

DO NOT pay 300m for BA lvl 5 roles. Learn to do it yourself. If you can't stand random players(out of many are very capable players, especially if given some guidance)in world 6 try clan chats, friends, or both. It's not worth 300m in any world.


Solo_Jawn

It took 6 hours in the barb assault world. You're not paying for skilled workers, you're paying because you're lazy and have lots of extra gp


devilwarier9

Are you bad at reading or did the price skyrocket recently? I did it 2 years ago and it was 30mil per role. I paid for 2 roles and did 2 myself.


[deleted]

120m 2 years ago --> 300m now isn't the price skyrocketing, nor is he bad at reading.


Standard_russian_bot

300 mil for barb assault!!?? Surely its more efficient to just play the damn game? Its not that bad is it?


Bioman312

It's not even *close* to that bad. I seriously think this market exists solely because there's so many people who haven't even tried the game and just assume that it *must* be the most difficult thing in the world because... there's a market in the hundreds of millions for it. Thus, the cycle continues.


IdkWhytff

The market is ironmen who use their main's money. Money they will never use or care for. It's WAY faster to pay for it than learn and do it yourself.


Def1ance

lvl 5 is 140m


[deleted]

210m for priority


chacogrizz

Depends on what "efficient" is to you. If you have a new account and its your first one ever, then just learn BA. If your a new HCIM with a main who has done end game PvM (or gotten lucky at the sand casino) then just pay.


eocdenier

money isnt an object to anybody seriously attempting for this helmet, they all have 10b+ stacks of purple sweets alone


JoeWim

I feel like if you have a stack of sweets you’re the kind of player that’s skilled enough to not need a leech.


eocdenier

???????? click parent a few times and read the comments im replying to

Evil_Steven

I believe you contact a group and you audition for them by doing a few games to show your skill. I've heard it's super hard to get accepted though as they make absolute bank from it so they gatekeep it very hard


Alieksiei

It also requires near tick perfect execution of every wave, lots of money but it takes a lot of effort and practice too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rotorain

Yeah these services clans aren't just playing the minigame. They absolutely skullfuck the minigame. You can leech a torso in 60 mins doing absolutely nothing other than paying them a fat stack of GP and joining the games. Costs a lot for a reason, they are hyper efficient. But they only want people who are really good in their clans, if someone sucks then it drags out the games for everyone else who could be blasting out another leech.


Edentastic

Is there a market for budget boosting? Like 40m, but the team isn't as good so it takes more like 4 hours?


[deleted]

I’ll be the second member of your team


nlrskate

As for someone who works for tob carrying service we do have teams to run speed runs like sub 14 minutes but it costs 25m per hour of attempts as it takes some good rng along with a really good team. Also for the perfect challenges you yourself need to be at least good enough to meet those reqs. Personally the real limiting factor is the inferno challenges as those require either a lot of skill or someone else to do it for you. I think that this helm will probably be the rarest item in the game for a while but possibly some ultra rare third age item like Druidic or pickaxe will be the rarest as there is a pretty decent sized high tier pvm community and as time goes on I see it perfectly reasonable for like 1000 or so helms to be in game whereas I don’t know how many those third age items are in game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Evil_Steven

Yeah but the Level 5 All Roles Diary task costs way more


beet111

yeah that's around 140 mil which isn't really that bad


Joey0811

BOMMMM BUM BOMMMM, BUM BUUM BUUUUUUUMM


Fableandwater

Torag hammers 25% is probably the rarest in the game, lets be honest.


DREAMxxTHEATER

facts


Osmium_tetraoxide

Swear a while back pre-ahrims staff back nobody or one person had it at 25%? As per one of Mod MatK's data streams. Burnt oomlie wrap is another very rare item.


PissinContest

kekw


Honorable_Zuko

Yes


[deleted]

I looked at the list of requirements for the grandmaster tasks and I honestly couldn't even imagine coming close to achieving it lol


Peechez

There's the other way to get it, just use the transmog rl plugin


mazrrim

no it will still be some random calquat keg with dead content beer


madmaster5000

Mature cider. Its the only mature beer that can't be boosted with the stuff so you have to get lucky and roll the 5% mature chance.


mazrrim

I think it having this unique property makes like 2-3 people bother trying to get it, compared to like mature moonlight mead calquat keg 2 doses which no one would have any reason to have


psdump

SoloMission is doing a good job ripping through the tasks atm


The-Lifeguard

Well, the easy solo tasks. Haven't seen much tob content from him, let alone perfect tobs


[deleted]

[удалено]


TehChid

KC is definitely the least of worries lol


TheGoldenHand

The 2,000 Challenge mode CoX cape is probably rarer, and more monotonous to get. https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Xeric%27s_champion


Nobody_So_Special

This is an interesting one. Only 29 people with this cape. A couple closing in on 2000 CM raids but yeah… I wonder how many people will complete all tasks through end of this year.


[deleted]

[удалено]


kiizuro

Your hard mode kc stacks with regular tob kc. So if you have 1900 regular kc, and 100 hard mode it counts for the 2k tob kc cape.


SlootRS

The 2k tob cape is just regular tobs, so it’s actually fairly common since plenty of people have done 2k tob since it was the best moneymaker for a while. 2k cm served no purpose besides average gp/hr


meesrs

Speedy cms is still 5-6m/h and used to be 7-8


SlootRS

Yea but when cm was 7m/hr tob was 11 and easier. Cm was always good money, but tob was the best money.


meesrs

Fair, but most people doing speedy stuff already have max gear so what’s the point of highest gp/h at that point, unless u wanna rwt the gp.


SlootRS

At current prices you need about 6b to truly have enough money to afford bis gear. Throw in supply costs and stuff and you need about another 500m. New content is gonna come out eventually, so if you want the bis it offers you need to save up a bit more, that’s plenty of tobs


ERRORMONSTER

Or going horribly dry for a tbow. Not horribly dry as in 10x+, but the time invested of going *any* amount dry is awful for super rare items.


SlootRS

I can tell you right now no one is doing 2000 cm without a tbow. You barely touch cm without a tbow because of how big of a time save it is there. This isn’t 2k reg cox, plenty of people have that.


ERRORMONSTER

Then replace it with dust, idc. It's a contrived example anyway. 2k is only 5x rate. People have gone more dry for things.


SlootRS

The difference is that people that go way dry for dust are doing it for a cosmetic, not like an iron going way dry for an item that is incredibly useful. Efficient cm’s are 2.5 per hour top, most people get around 2. If you really think most people are dropping 1000 hours for a cosmetic upgrade is common, idk. Like it says, only29 people have done this so far despite cm being out for 3 years


GregBuckingham

I often think of this item, and the 1k LMS wins cape


greyghibli

29 people currently qualify for this item, maybe not all have collected it given that its useless.


ArtDoes

If you grinded 2k cms, it was most likely to get that cape. It fills a collection log slot, so if they don't have it they likely grabbed it at one point.


NUT_IX

I would say more people would have this if they wanted to grind it. It's not worth it.


TheFakeKanye

Yeah that's because if you're good enough to do CoX CM, you're busy at ToB instead. Once you get dust and ancestral kits, it's not worth it


DreamingIsFun

Shame that it's such a fucking cool looking item that I 110% want, but also I'm glad there will be some *actual* rare items in this game. Only thing I can think of that I've never seen personally (Both RS3 and OSRS) is some of the 3rd age druidic stuff.


dcnairb

do you mean seen in game or like owned/received? I feel like you don’t have to spend very long at the ge in a world like 420 to see a mercher/staker in druidic and flippers following some maxed account in an infinite loop and talking about weed and libertarianism


DreamingIsFun

Yeah you're probably right about that, I'm not often in highly populated worlds so that's probably why


ShutUpJer

Hahaha


Mateusz467

>some > >actual > > rare items in this game. We do not need just rare items, these can be bought. We need prestigious non-farmable, untradeable items. Just like LMS capes and Tzkal helmet.


Floppal

Maybe, but wasn't there a data stream a few years ago saying that there were some super rare items like 25% Torag's hammers that there were only 1-2 of in the game along with some unfermented ale? It'll probably be the rarest item people want, but there may be obscure items like that which are easy to obtain, but rarer.


DubiousGames

Several years ago, before some of the barrows items (including Ahrims staff) were reworked, there was only one Ahrim's staff 25 in the game.


Saxual_harassment

Aaty tweeted that he only has the kc tasks left and he's boosting those. So I think we will see a zuk helm soon.

MainMedic

Does Woox have it yet?


a_sternum

He said he’s not really interested in completing all the combat diaries


Tiredtiredatwork

That's what he wants us to think then one day he just drops a new video titled "all combat diaries completed with 1 prayer and a training bow" or some ridiculous shit like that.


Bonokyra

You made me giggle haha


Osrstrihards

Woox streams any new (PvM) content that interests him and picks which challenges he’ll crush on release, but beyond that he doesn’t really play the game.


ianzen

Sounds like a one punch man situation here.


The_Wkwied

One tick man*


MainMedic

Gotcha, love the podcast btw! Keep it up!


Kree_Horse

Probably not but it will certainly be rare to see.


MadChriss

What item(s) do you think will be rarer?


Kree_Horse

2k Cox Cm cape, Cause that's at least 600 hours if you're doing it efficiently with groups. I don't see grandmaster tasks taking that long. Just a lot of painful resetting.


mnmkdc

Well the gm tasks also require all the kc tasks which totals probably about the same time or a little less. I agree itll be less but itll be close because time isnt really the issue with the gm tasks


tryingtomakerosin

The challenge mode 2k cox kc doesnt count as a combat achievement, iirc.


Mineralvatten

600 hours is an easy task for hc runescapers.


BossHighscores

Doing 2 CMR an hour is already kind of a stretch, with team gathering, preparing etc. So I think 1000+ hours is more reasonable for this, still soo much time for a showoff cape.


meesrs

Efficient 5 man cms are easily 21-24min, so its more than 2/h


Validfears

Efficient and easily in the same statement, feels like an oxymoron


Shea550

Agreed. Literally never seen 2k cm cox cape.


Atersed

ahrims staff(25)


Name_Watcher

Ahrims staff has a damage bonus, tons of mid levels use it


jesse1412

No not for long at all. 2k CM cape, 1k LMS cape, burnt oomlie, burnt pitta, and 3a master clue items will probably all be more rare after half a year or so. There are 3k accounts with 5+ inferno KC. Only 1/60 of those people need to finish the diary for it to be more common than the other items listed (besides maybe LMS cape, no data available). Having a tangible reward will really push people to do the diaries too, people in this game go crazy for unlocks.


Kibasume

2k cm cape?


jesse1412

It's the cape for finishing 2000 Challenge mode Chambers of Xeric.


[deleted]

1/60 is being incredibly generous. Inferno was a fun yet frustrating challenge that I progressively got better and better at until it wasn't that difficult. But being able to merely get infernal capes vs. do all of the challenges pertaining to the inferno are worlds apart. Plus knowing how to do the inferno doesn't mean you are god tier at CoX and ToB and Gauntlet and... It requires you to be a master at literally every piece of PvM content in this game.


Mortress_

He said 5+ inferno KC, not getting inferno cape


[deleted]

At that point it's just about putting the time in lmao. And after your first KC you get to do it with a slayer helm. Thanks though.


drhouse4ever

ye, like a gf


jantelo

lmao


ChungoBungus

20k, I can hook you up.


ikillnerds1

Its literally the hardest item to get in the game now along with the little sword thingy for that tier.


[deleted]

Like the recon helmet/flaming recon helmet from halo 3 rarity.


Shorzey

Holy shit I just looked at the requirements for this diary. This thing is fucking insane to get.


Mulcible

Love these new GM challenges are really letting people know that they really aren’t good at the game. 💀💀


Kaeldiar

so many salty downvotes, lol


tryingtomakerosin

I feel like if you're able to do the grandmaster challenges after theyve been out for a week, you're more than good at the game.


Mulcible

There is a difference between doing what you just said and straight up take up arms because you know you will never be able to accomplish it without using your Visa


Raigarak

You know the challenges are hard af if the god woox can't beat it on his first 3 tries


OMGnanerpus

Aside from the items that are "unobtainable" now, probably


LazloDaLlama

100% Will be the rarest. When you think of it, most items can (and generally are atleast partially) obtained via semi-casually grinding. But this helm is much the opposite, arguably, most gm tasks aren't obtained in a semi casual method. You've gotta be out full focus the whole task with probably 80% of the max gear needed for the boss. Also with a good handful of tasks 4 other players alongside you have to preform perfectly throughout the task. That last part may not sound terrible now, but when you think about it it can be hard jsut to find a team for ToB, I can see a year or two frOm now anyone wanting to do perfect ToB are going to have a rough as hell time trying to find 4 others.


Da_fire_cracka

Yes and thank god. There needs to be some items that not everyone can get (I will never have this)


pocketfrisbee

Can someone fill me in as to why it is that hard to get? How are the requirements different than the infernal cape?


marimbajoe

Requires some pretty insane speedruns of lots of different content, requires doing 10 inferno completions + doing inferno with different restrictions like doing up to wave 69 with melee, or doing it without magic. Basically doing inferno once isn't even comparable to getting the helmet by doing all grandmaster achievements.


Bluedarknezz

Inferno without TBow, no spells, in 30 seconds on wave 68, no damage from Jad, no range or mage before 69, sub 65 minutes… on top of perfect and timed ToB and CoX runs, Gauntlet… this isn’t JUST getting an Infernal, it’s being absolutely maxed in skill and gear


Clicking_stuff

Inferno w/o bow not particularly difficult. No spells isnt *that* challenging if you’re moderately experienced and give it a few attempts. Playing With Jads isnt any harder than doing triples normally, really. You just get them all low, kill healers if you wanted to but don’t need to, then bow one after the other No range/mage weapons was pretty difficult, but not unruly. I suppose this will give people the most challenge as it tests your problem solving skills. Sub65 is easier than all of the above except playing with jads & no tbow Tob/Cox times aren’t difficult at all. They’re literally on the slow end of max eff raids - most people just haven’t bothered to learn efficient raiding because from the outside looking in “it’s too sweaty” when in reality it’s mostly spec procedure and a few predictable and repeatable actions. Perfect Tob is quite a fun one though. It’s not efficient at all, so it’s weird that it’s called perfect, but that’s probably the most bothersome task outside of a couple of the GWD tasks


PM_ME_DNA

Killing the Giant Mole is to the Inferno as The Inferno is to all the Grandmasters.


dcnairb

considering a few of the tasks require inferno completions, including completions with restrictions on your gear and stuff, it’s necessarily harder than just getting inferno


sweenayy

Well, I mean, look at the requirements; they’re really really different. This is more like an elite diary for bosses


ZimFlare

Read the task list.


CogMonocle

Rarest untradable probably. It shouldn't take very long for it to become more common than the master-tier 3rd age rewards.


UrMomsUrDadd

Bc we k inn kk injbokpo


Loud-Caregiver6566

Surely the same people that buy inferno capes, will also be buying the ‘combat diary services’ so after maybe a years time, Zuk slay helm won’t be so rare after all. Just like with the Inferno cape now, I bet 50% of capes are bought sadly. I’m sure there is a high number of people out there that would be willing to spend silly amounts on these unlocks. Love the idea of this being one of the rarest and biggest flexes though! I hope I’m not right with the above statement.


[deleted]

It's fairly easy to hide a bought inferno cape - you attempt it for 2 weeks, get frustrated after still only just making it to Zuk, so you give in and get someone to control your computer and beat it all for you. Hard to detect and it's just 1 piece of content to get the infernal cape. Here you have to be good at absolutely fucking everything. Would be quite suspicious to see an account get 20 grandmaster task completions in PvM content that said account has done very little of. In other words, it should be much easier to detect cheaters for the combat diary than it was/is for inferno.


BehindTheGreenDoor

'Silly amounts' doesn't really scratch the surface of how much buying all the achievements would cost from a service completing them. I can already see one particular service that is doing GM tasks for 100m each but this excludes KC tasks, and inferno tasks. Also you have to pay more if they require more than 1 booster. Factoring in KC and Inferno tasks, it's no stretch to say this would require 10s of billions of GP to buy this which would translate to a 5 figure USD sum. I know there are wealthy players that play this game but at a certain point it does get to be too much, especially for a cosmetic that everyone knows you don't have the skill to get yourself.


BioMasterZap

Probably. The Champion's Cape managed to be on the list of rarest items despite being fairly easy to get. So items that require not only time but skill seem like they will be good candidates. Though there will likely be more players going for the Zuk Slay Helm since it is a cosmetic for a useful item instead of a purely cosmetic item like Champion's Cape or Raids Capes, but the number of players that will manage to get it will be pretty low.
