There's very little content that actually requires best in slot gear, and if you've been successful getting to the level where you need it you should be making money hand over fist anyway.


I just want to point out that the whole purpose of the game is to get the best stuff you can


oh definitely not. its not about getting the best stuff you can. there are so many routes you can go down

there are some people out there that literally do pvm content with out bis gear, because thats what they enjoy doing.

so the game is what you make it.


There are people doing the content and struggling severely because of it, nobody playing for fun wants to struggle indefinitely, and those people who use garbage gear or no gear at all take 1000 attempts to get 1 kill for their YT video as they've stated it publicly, yes the purpose of this game is to get the best gear you could possibly have, and to complete the game fully, that's the whole purpose of any game, to say otherwise is ludicrous, and to 100% this game it would take years upon years, to get the best gear in this game is pointless because it's just going to get nerfed anyways, tell me, what's the point of playing a game that takes years to complete once you've reached end game which takes years to achieve itself while at the same time all the BIS end game gear gets nerfed constantly?

The answer is there is no point, even the BIS end game upgrades are so miniscule they barely provide any benefit at all according to people like you aka people not in BIS can complete the same content with little struggle, so why do they cost so much, why are they so overinflated to the point it drives players to quit, there are 50-100 upgrades alone totaling anywhere from 50B-100B not including unlocks, how do you justify that with GP methods consisting of 10-20m/hr?

no man they do not. there are many out there that dont have YT channel or any channel. this is just how they prefer to play,

like im saying, the game is what you make it, if you want to get bis gear etc etc etc then thats what you are making it. ive never been interested in BIS gear, i always cared about xp. so all my gp went into getting xp.

they cost so much because they are better at the end of the day, and they are much much better than t80s etc. i never said they make miniscule benefit. i said you can do pretty much all content with t80s.
also supply, there are going to be much more t80 gear in game than t95 etc

... continued^^

overall i think you are putting too much important into bis gear,

if you truely want this gear, why not kill the monsters that drop it?

surely you want bis gear for pvm anyways. so why not pvm to get it. by instead of buying it but getting as a drop

I came back after 10 years last April and playing casually, on legacy mode, and going months at a time without playing, made several billion since my return.

My methods:

Hard clues: Farm them off hellhounds. 20-30 hards per hour. Use points for buying full globetrotter as once you have the set hard clues only take 4-6 minutes each. This is without using Alt-1. Hard clues average me 1-1.5m per but if you get puzzle skip tickets you earn even more. Dyes are just a plus.

Easy clues: Similar gold rate as hards just no chance at dyes.

Barrows: 10m+ hourly given you sell the runes. More if you get lucky with Ahrim items or amulets.

Lava Stryks: 6-10m hourly from the ashes

Frost and rune dragons: 8-10m+ hourly off bones

Blood reaver pacts: when you have blue charms you can kill 5-900 bloodreavers an hour which equates to 50-90m hourly. I farm my blues off arch glacor 1 mechanic and lava stryks

You can earn additional gold from things like daily rune store runs and keeping up with throne - these two alone net 2-3m a day.

I hear Croesus is great money. I don't do it myself but it beats any of my methods, lol.

Be sure top get at least one alchemizer in the invention workshop. Save up rune+ salvages and battlestaff drops and dump them into the machine. Right now I have around 20m in junk I need to load into it <_<

This is also a rare occasion where I agree with Tenebri lmao. You don't NEED BIS gear for most content. Definitely not for slayer, and not for most bosses unless you are fighting Zamorak on max enrage or something. GWD1 and GWD2 bosses are soloable with legacy mode using T80s and earn nice amounts. Even some other bosses you can do with T80 armors, and T90 weapons aren't that expensive.

Daily I earn around 50-100m from barrows, and 60-150m from hard clues. This is at a casual pace missing more ticks and I hit due to chatting with my clan and shitposting on Facebook.

The BiS gear alone concept doesn't apply to modern or modernized games with robust systems in both combat and skilling. Buy yourself a BiS FSOA and don't invest in ability codices, perks and such you won't find it "best" at all.

Even for those who are so obssessed with BiS Gear, they should be very happy with Necromancy where BiS can only be earned playing the game, but can't be bought with gp.
