You need to seriously attempt ironman, you dont need to go super sweaty to reach endgame, just set a target and grind for it every once in a while so that you dont get burnt out.I would bail on my primary and never return if I didnt need to redo all of the quests, even as an iron man to boot. I hate questing. Add at the loss of RS gold a significant simple quality of life things (mainly things like purchasing teleports to anyplace, prayer/stamina baskets ), and also ironman just is a tad too much for me.
I have to mention though RuneScape changes as you advance. I started off enjoying slayer therefore I did this, I recall a lvl 126 telling me I was"far away" from abby demons about 6 months ago. Well this last month id consider my lifetime unrecognisable that is osrs. I love the content I hated (quests today unlock genuinely good things and are the primary way to progress my acc now im okay money wise). 6 months ago I was 85cb, 1200 total and may just about handle kbd and barrows and had a bank that is 15m. The grind is real but damn im happy I found cool people and a solid cc and listened to advice, but realising 92 is half way to 99 is a major reality check.... Job im a fairly RuneScape player.
Shifting from RS3 to be enjoy
Yea I played eoc till osrs got announced and released and I didn't mind it back then but for whatever reason whenever I have the itch to perform with these days I login to RS3 feel overwhelmed by everything and log off and repeat the cycle probably once a year. It is just not a game I will ever have the ability to get back into.I gave it a fair shot with legacy mode before osrs I think. Was alright but it's objectively worse dps that caused it to be reclined to play.This is the way I feel for osrs.
I keep getting nostalgic and taking a break and moving and spending 2 or a month on osrs. Etc and then I realize just how far away my accounts is and how grindy RuneScape is and that I have turned off. I'd rather invest my time in RS3 in which I do not need to spend hundreds of hours grinding out boring skills in order to play fun ones. Although I've been recently playing an osrs Hardcore Ironman and that has changed me encounter. Being a Ironmeme makes it far more enjoyable and has given value to the mill.
That's cool you found a way. It'd probably be exactly the same for me if I began a brand new Ironman or perhaps just a new account on RS3 but I am at that state you're at with osrs where I don't feel like starting over and grinding everything up even though it faster.Well if you ever decide to try out Ironman on buy RuneScape gold RS3, allow me to know! I've been on the lookout for a reason to test it as well! Folks keep saying Ironman on RS3 is enjoyable, some say it's much better than OSRS. So it is worth checking out at some point for sure.
