Up to date progression guide ?

[Imyo]

Hi, im playing a hardcore blind playthrough since lasth month, i maxed a few skills, i cant spread too much due to inventory space, so now im trying to level up combat to find that drop to open op more storage space.

Is there any guide for the current version to help me out with progression ? i did some theorycrafting to help me progress faster but my knowledge is limited and the wiki is extensive as fk, and im finding out i missed on a lot of oportunities, like levelin herbalor for the controled heat potion for example, things like that that help you gain xp faster and smoother, also stocking on materials like gems and logs to use later in other activities is taking a lot of space.

And im kind of worried about combat, so far its straightforward but im guessing debuffs and stuff like that are going to give me a hard time eventually and i dont want to lose a year of progress to that.

Thanks in advance for the help, any tips or guide links are apreciated.

This is my current situation:

Get the meta skills to 99. Astrology, herblore, agility, and summoning. Especially the combat related stuff as those offer some important bonuses. Use fishing to level summoning (pig & octopus synergy) and get a bunch of cooked whales in the process. Being on HC, you will want to make sure you never ever run out of food. You can sell the raw whales to get some money.

You don't have to worry about combat really until volcanic cave or god dungeons. Ideally you're making sure you have enough DR to survive idle. Make sure you're gilding your melee armour with silver and gold. Fishing to level 80 for raw magic fish and raw skeleton fish is the only real requirement to do combat. Fishing also nets plenty of money if you were so inclined.

For now money isnt an issue, im only using it a lot for summoning tablets (those are expensive) and a the 5mill upgrades for the gathering skills, i already have the first 6 skills maxed, and working on fletching, smithing, mining, while idle, and combat when im on the office because i can check on it every now and then, i still have plenty of food tho, but i dont know what to kill to be honest, all i can idle (due to the max hit limitation for auto eat) is cheap things i can kill in 1 or 2 hits, except dungeons, wich i did a few hundreds of the zombie one (cand idle the other one yet) Combat is leveling really slow, i have several days leveling it and i only got to 60 each and takes like 3 or 4 hours hours to level one up. Im still using the frozen sword from the ice monster.


What you say about volcanic cave or god dungeons, is it because of debuffs and stuff like that ? how does that work ? i dont mind extra grind just to be safe when that moment comes.

You could focus on the enemies that drop amulet pieces. You need 200 of each to make the best amulet in the game for late game. So things like goo monster, wet monster are good places to start. 100 Amulet of Defense/Magic upgraded gives u 2% DR. If that's not a priority, you can set it on Slayer tasks with automatic switch on to build up your slayer coins. Hard Slayer would probably be best on level 85+ stats otherwise XP will be slower.

For Volcanic Cave the end boss can hit quite hard so you need to be above a certain DR% to do it safely with T3 auto eat. The debuffs come when you've cleared the god dungeons so i wouldn't be too concerned about an accidental death. God dungeons will take a while.
