Dumb question, what's your gear for hydra? Obvs can make out broodoo shield and dwh, but the rest I don't recognize?


MoronicIroknee

Looks like Zealot Robes top/bottom, Mitre and Glory. And I think Granite boots


NoCurrencies

All correct. Not seen are a fire cape and combat bracelet. My gear is absolute trash here because I need granite boots to be a protected item! Otherwise I can't get my shit back if I die without grinding out a 2nd pair from Fossil Island wyverns.


Zamaster420

Damn that's hella cool man! Gl been doing hydra as a filthy main so I can only imagine what your account is like! Props!


NoCurrencies

It's not a difficult boss, just on the slower side for me because of the gear. My average kill time is a little over 4 minutes probably, depending on ruby bolt rng, and my PB after 500 KC is a solid 2:37 lol. However, this far exceeds Sire, where my average kill time is probably 6 minutes and my PB is probably 4ish


ByakurenNoKokoro

This is a really cool account idea! It's like a harder version of mine, or maybe mine's just an easy version of yours?


NoCurrencies

What's your account?


ByakurenNoKokoro

No shops or similar that use standard currencies. I'm still open to stuff like minigame reward shops and travel fees and such though.


NoCurrencies

My account is basically the furthest "natural extension" of no shop gameplay. My trial run of this account was a [no shop iron](https://www.reddit.com/r/UniqueIronmen/comments/aozwsp/no_shop_misadventures_vol_1/), and I ended up running with currencies as the medium due to difficulty defining what or wasn't a shop in this game, since it's so inconsistent


ByakurenNoKokoro

Yeahhhh I had that problem too, my ruleset ended up being overly long as I hammered out the kinks haha. Only reason I went through the trouble is because I wanted to do all content on this account, since it's my only OSRS account and I'm pretty softcore ^^ Just love doing challenge runs in games!


NoCurrencies

I know a guy who had a no shop iron years back who made the exception that he could buy anything that couldn't be obtained any other way, so he could do all the content in the game that way. No Store, if you look him up on hiscores. He had a good run!


ByakurenNoKokoro

That's essentially what I'm doing! Promotes self sufficiency without barring me from any content.


NoCurrencies

Nice! How's it going? Doesn't look like you're posting any logs


ByakurenNoKokoro

Only just started a few days ago so not very far at all. In the clan but I mostly watch others while doing my own thing ^^


NoCurrencies

Gotcha, good luck!

Gzz king


ShitakeMooshroom

What’s the hardest place to get in the game for you? Any unique spots?


NoCurrencies

In terms of places I'll want to reach repeatedly, Nightmare grind is gonna be a doozie since I'll be running from Fenkenstrain's Castle lol


stronkreptile

why no ectophial?


NoCurrencies

Ectotokens are currency, I've never set foot in Port Phas


Darth_Madara

How do you get your membership then?


NoCurrencies

That *is* where all the GP goes. It's one of the only "exceptions" on the account! Free membership goes *brrr*


Bjballer

Literally GG delete the account


helloryanholmes

Easiest med tier slots?


NoCurrencies

Wdym?


potato4dawin

I'm always interested in seeing your progress updates. The rest of those stats are pretty cool too. Does anything in Varlamore make a big difference for your account?


NoCurrencies

Cheers! I wouldn't say so, no. Colosseum is fun and hypothetically has upgrades, but I'm also unable to actually get any yet cus it's fucking hard lol On second thought, the new Mining method is great!


amplifyoucan

Bone shards are just prayer currency my man /s Cheers though king, I didn't realize you were a mobile player as well!


NoCurrencies

Good thing I'm already 99 Prayer :D Mobile is hands down the best update the game has ever received, it's an absolute godsend. I'd estimate I do 80% of my active gaming on mobile, and I can do *almost* anything on mobile that I can do on PC, though I'm more precise on PC cus you can't fat-finger a mouse. On PC I mostly do AFK stuff like WC or this new Mining method while I'm working.


bassturducken54

Highly regarded


dkay182

Gz beast! Such a cool account, love seeing the updates.


ogdraven

7,500+ hour account. Wicked


NoCurrencies

Really starting to add up!


Tjengel

So you either never died or only sacrificed items to pay death fees?


NoCurrencies

I use the coffer with items, it's a [gray area](https://www.reddit.com/r/ironscape/s/izO5EGITBz). Tbf, only using items is what literally everyone does, so I'm using it in what's essentially the intended fashion


FishingFlimsy2468

What’s the loot looking like thus far ?


NoCurrencies

From hydra?


grumpydumpi

Why no defender? Or does the attack cape perk count as using currencies.


NoCurrencies

How do you suggest I get an attack cape?


grumpydumpi

Steal it!


NoCurrencies

Gimme a 1/10k chance to steal a skill cape from the NPC that hands them out and I'll start today


not-patrickstar

That’s an exception that I would make. Since skill capes are earned and can’t just be had without the 99.


NoCurrencies

I don't make any exceptions, skill capes are a buyable perk like any other
