So, not being one to give up on a Beginner Clue Scroll, I found myself needing a Gold Ring and Gold Necklace with no stat above 20 so I did Priest in Peril so I could kill Crawling Hands for a Gold Ring, ran the Stronghold of Security and spent all my money on runes to grind Magic to use Telegrab, then realized the struggle of getting Law Runes, killed 50 Chaos Druids in Edgeville Dungeon for a single drop, finally telegrabbed it and what was my reward for all that work? 3 law runes. 1 more law rune than the Chaos Druids dropped on the 50th kill... worth I guess (would share screenshot but I can't figure out the image embed)

Hey bud, i would highly recommend checking out the osrs wiki

A gold ring is a reward found in the Casket from the Pirate's Treasure quest
thats not a very long or difficult quest

theres also a spawn for a gold necklace at the Wilderness Lava Maze


I understand trying to grind out the skills to make the item or get it as a drop, but i'm just saying there are like 10 ways to do things in this game.

"The average loot roll is worth 12,517.00. On average, easy clues are worth 37,552.00."


https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Clue_scroll_(easy)

Frankly, Easy clues in OSRS are just not worth the time even for regular players. It is extremely woeful for IM as you can't even sell the loot for gp like regular players and you end up with junk.

At least with Hard Clue or above, you will get a very low chance in obtaining a 3rd Age piece. Easy Clues are just unworthy content for IM.

If you insist to go with the woes... you can do the Pirate Treasure quest as the other user suggested, but with no stats over 20, have fun going through the pvp enable Wildy and pass the mob gauntles to get to the center of the Lave Maze to pick up a golden necklace. I think you are likely to need some decent armor (to IM with no stats above 20) and be prepared to lose some to pkers or taxes to Death.

Bummer to IM in OSRS, especially with clue scroll.

You may just drop your clue scroll and hope the next one you get won't require you to do things not suitable for your low levels. Or you may want to try the hard way running pass mobs in the lava maze (if not pkers) to get to a gold necklace. Well, you will lose the clue scroll if you die anyway and no more woes until you get the next one. :)
