Our Method

Our goals is for everyone to be on the winning team (Saradomin) and get gold tickets every game. We start games balanced, and wait for the game time to tick to 19 minutes, when the “There are enough players to award Gold Tickets“ message appears. Then you can sells (exits to lobby) or wait for the coordinator to calls “=== sara sell ===“ to confirm that everyone on the Saradomin team to sells, while players on the Zamorak team leaves the game and then “buy in“ to the Saradomin team.

At least one player on the Zamorak team, known as a Sac, stays in game on the Zamorak team, while everyone on the Saradomin team is lobbied. This creates an imbalance, prompting anyone waiting in the Saradomin lobby to receive a message inviting them to join. They accept the message one at a time (in the order that they arrived in the portal), and then immediately lobby. After lobbying, they say “ns“ (in and sold) in the friends chat, indicating that it is the next person's turn. After everyone is in, the coordinator calls “=== login ===“, and everyone logs back in, and can mostly AFK the rest of the game. We do need to capture the flag a few times, to ensure that Saradomin wins, and to give us an early lead in case crashers show up later in the game though.

This method is fairly simple, but small problems, like a single player on the Saradomin team who doesn't lobby, or the sac leaving unexpectedly can alter the carefully planned unbalance and grind buy ins to a halt. It is essential that everyone does their part, pays attention during buy ins, and follows the instruction of the coordinator (by the way, anyone can become a coordinator -- just ask).

Please refer to our discord channel, #method-explained and our YouTube video guide for a detailed explanation of our method, these will be automatically sent to you when you are accepted.

Why choose our method?:

Buying Profound Armour Prices:
-------- Gold Ticket --- Thaler
Helmet - 650 ----------- 7,475
Body -- 1,100 --------- 12,650
Legs ---- 800 ---------- 9,200
Sword -- 800 ---------- 9,200
Shield -- 800 ---------- 9,200
------------------------------
Total -- 4,150 -------- 47,725

You might ask: “Why would I play Castle Wars like this when I could just afk for thaler to buy Profound?“. The reason is that always-win CW works out to be at least 12.6% faster progress than playing any other minigame on spotlight, and can be much faster with spotlight (64.6% faster), enhancers (112.3% faster), or both (164.3% faster).

First note that 1 Gold Ticket is roughly equivalent to 11.5 thaler (based on the prices below)

Using our method, you are awarded (approximately) 3 thaler and 2 gold tickets per game. Each games last 23 minutes (with lobby time), so you do 2.6 games per hour, earning 5.2 gold tickets and 7.8 thaler per hour, which is equivalent to 67.6 thaler/hour. The best spotlight minigames get you 60 thaler/hour (1/minute), so castle wars is at least 12.6% faster, and the difference is larger for minigames with lobby time.

Castle wars token enhancers are randomly available from Motherlode maw, or by focusing Unfocused reward enhancers in Prif., which are available from Motherlode Maw or the DSF Travelling merchant. Each charge doubles your gold tickets for one game, so you receive 4 per game instead of 2. With enhancers, you get about 10.4 tickets and 7.8 thaler per hour, which is equivalent to 127.4 thaler/hour.

Using our method on Castle wars spotlights, you get approximately 15 thaler per game instead of 3, or about 39 per hour. With the tickets, this works out to be equivalent to 98.8 thaler/hour without enhancers or a whopping 158.6 thaler/hour with them.

Using just thaler, it takes at least 795.4 hours to achieve Profound. Using our method it can be much faster.

Games Info

Any FC Member can start a list, but must hand it over to a trainee Coordinator or Coordinator once they are available. Once there is 10 players on the list to host games, games will start and a coordinator will assign a role of either “Zamorak to Saradomin” or “Saradomin". The winning team is always Saradomin, unless told otherwise.

Keywords :

- 2gw: You finish your current game and will Sac on your next game. This is called when you are leaving games and to state that you will sac next game.
- Buy in (team): Enter Portals and join games of the (team).
- Conf (Confirm): The most common term used for confirming that you have seen calls given to you by the coordinator.
- Coord: Abbreviation for Coordinator, they are the person who can start or hosting the current games.
- Ins: In-game and have sold (lobbied).
- List: A list of people who are waiting to start the games (10 including a coordinator to start).
- Owed Sacs: Are punishment sacs given when you don’t do your 2gw sac or not following rules.
- Sac: You will stay logged in the losing team until the coordinator calls login.
- Sell: You are to logout to lobby.
- Snipe:Joining the game before it was your turn in Saradomin portal.
- Stack: When players pile up outside a portal instead of balancing the portals.
- Tig (Time in Game): Time in current game plus the lobby/waiting room time.

Type of Roles:

-- Permanent
You will play the role called until the coordinator tells you otherwise.
The role will be called is followed by the word Perm (abbreviation for Permanent).
--Temporary
You will play the role called for the next game then you will return back to your Perm Role.
The role will be called is followed by the word Temp (abbreviation for Temporary).

If no "Type of Role" is called then the coordinator is referring to Perm. This usually happens when you ask for an add to join games.

It is advised(but, not required) to run to Zamorak Flag at start of game so the first player to reach the Zamorak Flag can capture it and score before lobbying.
