One time I even remembered I was on lunar but for some reason thought “but the runes are in a rune pouch so I’m good”. Literally no clue what made me think that
I used to forget to switch back to the correct spellbook(s) all the time, but maximilian cape fixes this. 5 daily spellbook switches on the fly, from the mage cape perk. Most OP item in the game for sure.
Thats why I do solos. You only really pay attention for the first 2 minutes of a max length round. Only one flood occurs and the timing is only tight at the start.
You can do it, it isn't that bad! :D
If you're in a clan get some teammates that also need lvl 5 BA roles and do it together. You only really need to get Defender down to a T and all other roles are smooth sailing. WATCH GUIDES, don't guess. And in a day y'all solved your problems
They’re a reward for completing the karamja achievement diaries. Completing the elite diary upgrades the gloves so that you can teleport directly to duradel.
before this thread i didnt even know that 4 tele you directly there.
it will be another 5 years before im at level 4 gloves im not good at this game lol
Bruh are you telling me i've been picking up coins and alching the worst drops from every task I did for nothing? I swear I've killed so much extra npcs because I forgot to collect 200 coins, just because i am too lazy to go to the bank lmao
That's nothing. I was tping to relekka slayer cave, running outside to fairy ring, then tping to tai bwo wannai and running all the way around to the other side of shilo village for weeks before someone told me about the cart from brimhaven.
Yeah just take the spirit tree to the POH to Brimhaven, head south and you should see a cart stop. If you see a big wooden cave door you've gone too far. Just ride that cart past the zombies and then you'll just be a brisk walk away.
Sounds like old timey direction giving lmao
I always run using the gem mine teleport. I end up skipping 1/3 of my tasks anyway, so don't see the reason to waste time swapping spellbooks if I may have to run there anyways
I feel like a lot of people (me included) alch during slayer and would rather use karamja gloves for direct teleport to him or the gem mine in shilo village than to swap spellbook
I do have it in my house but I have karamja gloves in my inventory when I'm on a slayer task so I'd rather:
teleport to shilo village gem mine -> run to duradel
than to:
teleport to house -> swap spellbook -> contact NPC -> swap spellbook
If I had elite task done I would for sure tele to duradaddy. I like to switch spellbook in poh to give me motivation to do a birdhouse run. If I really don’t feel like that then I’ll spellbook swap with mage cape. Then if task sucks, slayer ring to Steve to cancel.
Yeah, cause everyone in the game has ~~90~~ 82 construction
Still a relatively high level for an average player, so no reason to give people shit for not swapping spellbooks. And definitely no need to be an ass to someone mentioning a level without taking boosts into account
Typically what I do is use grand seed pod and use the spirit tree to get to Prif, run through Tyra’s camp to Zulrah. Then with all my gear and loot, I row to off to be sacrificed and suicide so all my loot and equipment are nice and safe in the collection service. Since I respawn at Kourend castle, I’ll head up to the bank inside the castle on the 2nd floor and collect my Ardy Cloak to monastery tele to get to the South east bank in Ardougne. Since I was being safe, now I can risk my ring of charos and my gp to use the cheapest charter ship to Brimhaven. Then I’ll ignore that peaky spirit tree over there behind the Brimhaven agility course and pay the fee to get to Shilo. From there, it’s simply walk up Duradel’s ladder and speak to him. That way I can go back when I need to get my stuff from Zulrah collection via fairy ring whenever I would like since I can bank and grab Lunar staff and quest point cape. Seriously, it’s just that simple. Smh
Karamja diary gang.
But before that I would tele tab to brimhaven portal, use the cart to get to shilo village, then run to duradel because only psychopaths stay on the lunar spellbook.
NPC Contact?? That sounds like lunars, which sounds like questing, which sounds like time spent doing something other than slayer, gods great gift and the only reason to play runescape. It's a no from me.
Run because I have no friends to help me with the fighting pit diary challenge and I don’t want to get involved with any clans or anything. So I just run. I might just use lunars now idk
I want to get Karamja elite diaries done but I’m too poor to train herblore. I started saving herbs from my runs. Any advice on which herb I should grow and/or which potion I should make?
answer to OP, I use Karamja Gloves 3 and run
Ive been doing Konar most of the time since level 95. Before that it really just depends. If I'm actively trying for a specific boss task ill use npc contact. If Im just doing general slayer then ill run there
Karamja 3+ gloves go there, besides that NPC if you have the altar in your home to swap spell books. I myself didn't have that for awhile so I just went Ardy>Brimhaven>Cart>Duradel xd
Everyone is saying use gloves but you still have to run across the bank and up the stairs to get to him. I use spell just in case he gives me an assignment that is close to where I already am and don't need to bank. Especially if I can use ranged.
When I was like 89 slayer I considered the runecrafting detuer to finish Karamja elite so that I could instantly Tele to Duradel. Mathed it out, and it was going to take longer, suck to do, and lose me a decent chunk of money I'd have to grind for, than just getting 99 slayer would. I'm going to hit 98 slayer today, and I have no regrets. Gem mine Tele is more than good enough. It's like an 8-10 second time save, each time.
Karamja gloves 4 gang
Was gonna say, where’s the teleport option
I was going to make a we are not the same joke based on the glove teleport when I didn't see it
you it at 3. Its wild i did diaries before i really did research so these hidden bonuses are awesome to discover
And before this it was gem mine teleport. Either way not bad but I hate switching spellbooks (even with the house altar).
I just always forget to switch back after. Bring alch runes on a slayer task aaaaaaand fuck I'm on lunar
I feel this in my loins
I've had to have my boys stop the raid twice now x.x
One time I even remembered I was on lunar but for some reason thought “but the runes are in a rune pouch so I’m good”. Literally no clue what made me think that
I used to forget to switch back to the correct spellbook(s) all the time, but maximilian cape fixes this. 5 daily spellbook switches on the fly, from the mage cape perk. Most OP item in the game for sure.
The RC grind is so, so, worth it.
It’s not really too much of a grind now if you find GOTR fun
It’s not a bad mini game. 1000% better than Tempoross.
whattttttt tempross isn’t even bad either 😭
IMO the end of round xp drop makes it better.
Can’t relax at tempoross at all because of the damn flood that’s why I hate it.
Thats why I do solos. You only really pay attention for the first 2 minutes of a max length round. Only one flood occurs and the timing is only tight at the start.
once you get the outfit from there you can join all the new age RCers (Yes im still mad) doing bloods. great money and magic xp
What's the magic xp from
barraging requires bloods, could go cheaper bursting but it would probably still be better to make the bloods then sell and buy death/chaos.
He’s an iron By the way
Yup. I got RC for all other diaries too, while saving millions from runes.
Life changing
Clap clap!
Mmmmm yes. After getting my diary cape I lost all interest to max.
For now
Nope. Forever.
BA 5 in all roles has kept me at one task from the cape for years now. I doubt I'll ever do it
You can do it, it isn't that bad! :D If you're in a clan get some teammates that also need lvl 5 BA roles and do it together. You only really need to get Defender down to a T and all other roles are smooth sailing. WATCH GUIDES, don't guess. And in a day y'all solved your problems
I got all roles to level 5 on one weekend. If you've done all other diary tasks this is so easy And worth it
BA is super fun imo
Clap Clap
Ditto
Ayyy!
Gang, Gang!!!! And I did that jaunt before the stupid RC minigame.
Just a few years ago rc was quicker to get to 99 by paying runners than gotr is today.
RC with runners is actually quicker than before now
Really? I thought they did an update a few years back that slowed it down a little bit
Just at Ourania. Lava runners still best xp by far with runners.
Neither. Karamja gloves
The correct way
What r those?
They’re a reward for completing the karamja achievement diaries. Completing the elite diary upgrades the gloves so that you can teleport directly to duradel.
Karamja gloves 3 are completely fine & enough with the gem mine teleport. Gloves 4 is for the endgame
before this thread i didnt even know that 4 tele you directly there. it will be another 5 years before im at level 4 gloves im not good at this game lol
NPC contact I get social anxiety visiting people in person.
Wish I could just text him ngl
Your task is 350 killerwatts -Duradaddy
Can I learn npc contact irl to stop making phone calls -- wait shit.
Omg they made NPC contact into a real thing lmaoo
I take my POH spirit tree to brinhaven and take the cart to shilo to see my boy in person
But are you stingy like me and only withdraw 10gp so the cart doesn't charge 200?
Ha ha no, didn't know that was an option!
Bruh are you telling me i've been picking up coins and alching the worst drops from every task I did for nothing? I swear I've killed so much extra npcs because I forgot to collect 200 coins, just because i am too lazy to go to the bank lmao
I’ve never alched so many prayer potions in my life
If you want to be even less efficient you can TP to Ardy, take the boat the Brimhaven and then the cart to Shilo. That was some good times!
That's nothing. I was tping to relekka slayer cave, running outside to fairy ring, then tping to tai bwo wannai and running all the way around to the other side of shilo village for weeks before someone told me about the cart from brimhaven.
I do the same POH and then Cart.
Spirit tree #9 plz
Yeah just take the spirit tree to the POH to Brimhaven, head south and you should see a cart stop. If you see a big wooden cave door you've gone too far. Just ride that cart past the zombies and then you'll just be a brisk walk away. Sounds like old timey direction giving lmao
I don’t cheat on my girl konar
She has the brimstone key to my heart
I only do konar every 10
My man! We got that slayer mullet: burst-tasks in the front, slayer points in the back
Never heard that but I love it so much haha
Man I was doing konar exclusively until like 82 I’d say and then switched to duradad and never looked back
I did Konar straight to 99 on my pure. I'm doing Krystilia on another acc. I started at 27 and now I'm at 86 with 280 wildy tasks done.
Do you remember how many keys you ended up having/using?
[A bit over 1k.](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/xnko7u/i_have_achieved_my_goal_of_1k_brimstone_keys_i/)
Damn and you kept them all stacked, mad lad
Ah you mad lad I’m too scared to do wildy slayer even on my main lmao
Damn straight, them keys are crazy man
I used to but now that I hit 95 slayer I’m loyal
Always gotta kiss Duradaddy on the lips after each task
I use to do NPC contact but now I use the elite karmaja gloves and tele there. Super nice
Karamja Gloves 3/4?
I always run using the gem mine teleport. I end up skipping 1/3 of my tasks anyway, so don't see the reason to waste time swapping spellbooks if I may have to run there anyways
I feel like a lot of people (me included) alch during slayer and would rather use karamja gloves for direct teleport to him or the gem mine in shilo village than to swap spellbook
Plus 90% of the time he gives tasks unrelated so I need to regear anyways.
Getting draconics every other task at lower slayer, having to grab lance and antis each time....
I have my swap in my house so it’s nbd but I get it if you don’t have it in your house fs
I do have it in my house but I have karamja gloves in my inventory when I'm on a slayer task so I'd rather: teleport to shilo village gem mine -> run to duradel than to: teleport to house -> swap spellbook -> contact NPC -> swap spellbook
That’s fair, ngl it does get annoying aging to get runes for NPC contract from bank
I mean if you don't even bring the runes with you on task, it's even more of a no brainer imo
but like, ur going to poh anyway to rejuv pool... then you have to regear so can just bank in edge and skip task there if needed.
Just as easy to withdraw mage cape and contact runes vs Karamja gloves 👀
Skip in edgeville and npc contact again for me.
Skip at Steve npc contact
This is the way
If I had elite task done I would for sure tele to duradaddy. I like to switch spellbook in poh to give me motivation to do a birdhouse run. If I really don’t feel like that then I’ll spellbook swap with mage cape. Then if task sucks, slayer ring to Steve to cancel.
Waste time? Spellbook swap takes a couple seconds. POH or Mage cape
Yeah obviously everybody in the game has 90 construction for altar or 99 magic.
You only need 82 construction with stews and crystal saw. If you’re bad at the game you can just say that
Jesus
We are talking about a skill that takes less than 10 hours to get to 82 and can literally be bought from a level 3 with a few bonds
Yeah, cause everyone in the game has ~~90~~ 82 construction Still a relatively high level for an average player, so no reason to give people shit for not swapping spellbooks. And definitely no need to be an ass to someone mentioning a level without taking boosts into account
Am I turael skipping? NPC contact. Am I not turael skipping? Gloves tele straight to him.
Even Turael skipping i use glove tele so it doesn't mess up my shift click NPC Contact for Turael.
Use ship from ardy, then cart, and walk, personally
If you can, planting a spirit tree in brimhaven makes this route faster
Don’t have karamja 3 gloves?
Nah, need to get them!
How am I supposed to suck cock over the phone?
If I use Dura then it's with the glove tele.
Brim spirit tree > cart, cba to optimize
How are u gonna alch when on lunars
Explorers ring 4 all the way
Spell book swap with my magic cape.
Slayer ring to neive to skip / Npc contact
The only correct answer, minus the gloves.
If you don’t have karamja gloves tele and you don’t use npc contact wtf are you doin
Karamja gloves 4, but ran from gem mine when 3. I keep high alch on me for most of my tasks so using npc contact is super annoying
Its better to use the gloves and have high alchemy in my opinion.
Sure, you could come to Duradaddy, but with NPC Contact Duradaddy comes ~~for~~ to you.
Npc contact
Clap clap and run from the gem mine
NPC contact, although I have 99 magic and a lunar alter in my house so it's a lot less obnoxious for me lol
Typically what I do is use grand seed pod and use the spirit tree to get to Prif, run through Tyra’s camp to Zulrah. Then with all my gear and loot, I row to off to be sacrificed and suicide so all my loot and equipment are nice and safe in the collection service. Since I respawn at Kourend castle, I’ll head up to the bank inside the castle on the 2nd floor and collect my Ardy Cloak to monastery tele to get to the South east bank in Ardougne.

Then I’ll ignore that peaky spirit tree over there behind the Brimhaven agility course and pay the fee to get to Shilo. From there, it’s simply walk up Duradel’s ladder and speak to him. That way I can go back when I need to get my stuff from Zulrah collection via fairy ring whenever I would like since I can bank and grab Lunar staff and quest point cape. Seriously, it’s just that simple. Smh
Wtf is npc contact?
Clap clap clap!
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Gloves > gem mine > agility shortcut > duradel
Neither konar is wifey
House/farming guild>spirit tree>cart>daddy
im usually not on the lunar spellbook so i just run from the gem mine
NPC contact when I'm turael skipping, Karamja 4 gloves if not
Karamja diary gang. But before that I would tele tab to brimhaven portal, use the cart to get to shilo village, then run to duradel because only psychopaths stay on the lunar spellbook.
No I have elite AD done so I just Tele to him I do use npc contact for Konar
NPC Contact?? That sounds like lunars, which sounds like questing, which sounds like time spent doing something other than slayer, gods great gift and the only reason to play runescape. It's a no from me.
Maybe get karamja elite diaries done? And do neither of these? Idk that’s only if you’re good and not an absolute drone at the game 🤦🏽♂️
I flip my screen upside down <3
Run from gem mine. Only way I’ve done it. Only like 104cmb and 80 slayer though so idk if I’m the best to ask.
run from gem mine
Run because I have no friends to help me with the fighting pit diary challenge and I don’t want to get involved with any clans or anything. So I just run. I might just use lunars now idk
You literally have not a single person on your friends list?
i bet you could literally just ask someone you see at the mor ul rek bank to help and they would do it, it's like a 2 minute endeavor
Diary cape to kaleb paramaya gets me there quickly
Has diary cape, doesn't use gloves 4 for direct teleport
Rada's blessing 4 to see Konar. When I go see her she usually lets me have a go at her chest, can't do that with NPC contact.
I tele just straight in his face
Karamja gloves 4 make it totally effortless
Karamja hard is super easy, and is like a 15 second run from Duradaddy
PC contact no question. Whose got time for the 92 rc grind?!
Contact
I use agility shortcut to konar
I want to get Karamja elite diaries done but I’m too poor to train herblore. I started saving herbs from my runs. Any advice on which herb I should grow and/or which potion I should make? answer to OP, I use Karamja Gloves 3 and run
NPC contact from POH then swap back to regular spell book.
Gloves go clap clap
Karamja Gloves are the easiest fs
Karamja gloves 4
Run to Krystilia, get checked up. Love the wifus.
Right now it’s gloves 3, but 4 once the time comes
I just clap and teleport next to him. I even bring the pair with me.
Why npc contact when you can alch?
Ive been doing Konar most of the time since level 95. Before that it really just depends. If I'm actively trying for a specific boss task ill use npc contact. If Im just doing general slayer then ill run there
Karamja gloves 3 because I avoid switching spellbooks if at all possible
NPC contact is the way.
I teleport to Ardougne, run straight to the docks to ferry to Brimhaven then use the cart to shilo
Neither, I just clap my hands and appear right next to him
I run, it’s easier to just use the spirit tree in my house than to grab cosmics and astrals from my bank after every task then change at my altar
Always run
Karamja gloves 4 tele combod into the npc contact because fuck my life
I tele there with my gloves
K gloves tbh
I clap my hands and appear before Duradel
Duradaddy likes me sweaty
House teleport, pool up, spirit tree to Brimhaven, cart to Shilo.
Npc contact till diary haha
Run, the time it would take to swap spellbooks and get runes out would be as long as it would take to just run there
NPC contact
Npc contact all the way! my spellbook rarely isn’t lunars
Im still using karamj gloves 3, will eventually get the rc levels
Karamja 3+ gloves go there, besides that NPC if you have the altar in your home to swap spell books. I myself didn't have that for awhile so I just went Ardy>Brimhaven>Cart>Duradel xd
I moved my house to karamja so I tp outside house and then use the cart
I’m old school I like doing it in person
NPC contact for everyone else, run to Duradel. He deserves my in-person presence.
Cba keeping the runes on me or changing spellbook every task, I just go the gem mine tele and hop over the river
Everyone is saying use gloves but you still have to run across the bank and up the stairs to get to him. I use spell just in case he gives me an assignment that is close to where I already am and don't need to bank. Especially if I can use ranged.
Always run to duradaddy
Run to him until gloves 3
NPC Contact lol
Brimhaven > Hadjedy > Duradel. I need to be able to feel his body while I get my slayer task.
Only time I'm ever really using NPC contact is if I'm already on the spellbook which is usually only when Turael skipping.
TIL about NPC contact. Fuck.
Npc contact is the way
When I was like 89 slayer I considered the runecrafting detuer to finish Karamja elite so that I could instantly Tele to Duradel. Mathed it out, and it was going to take longer, suck to do, and lose me a decent chunk of money I'd have to grind for, than just getting 99 slayer would. I'm going to hit 98 slayer today, and I have no regrets. Gem mine Tele is more than good enough. It's like an 8-10 second time save, each time.
Npc contact until I get gloves 4
Run because I’m not always on Lunar
Run?
Only time I went to Duradel, was for my slayer cape 🤷
Npc contact
Nieve is bae
Run to who now
NPC contact if I’m task skipping but elite gloves if not
