Transcripts
welcome to the hardest challenge in
RuneScape nightmare mode I have 1 HP and
if I take damage at any point my account
gets deleted and the first 108 did my
goal is split up into three phases and
phase one is the world's first ever fire
Cape without ever taking damage dude I
get some like weird paranoia running
around this area like I I don't know I
know there's like a Ballista south of me
like what if that just like fires and
like what what am I talking about like
what what if something explodes near me
like that's that's what I think in this
area cuz I know it's like a war
zone that didn't actually happen but it
could have we dodged a bullet last
episode quite literally I knew I was
paranoid for a reason this catapult
actually could end the account
thankfully we finished trome Village
Quest out of the way from now on I have
to be very careful running through here
we might reach the 200 hour survived
Mark in this episode and we are on a
mission we've made crucial progress I'm
32 or right now six more levels and I
can make my own prayer potions which
will change the game for this account
right now I'm just completing as many
achievement Diaries as possible to get
free XP it is Diary season in nightmare
mode and while some of these might just
be impossible without grave risks to the
account the next one on the list is
incredibly useful the fador easy diary
can essentially give me a rechargeable
mini prayer potion with the fador shield
25% prayer recharge once a day which I
can use to complete certain quests and
tasks we've got a very busy week ahead
with the master plan but first loow life
109 something to prove and everything to
lose reminds me of today's insanely
exciting sponsor best-selling author and
RuneScape fan David sdes and his
incredible series kingf fall it follows
Samson guard an unlikely Hero trying to
prove himself Against All Odds and by
that I mean the literal end of the world
if you lik Game of Thrones or the way of
Kings you're going to love this Samson
is a blind prince who must wield a
powerful God blade a mythical weapon
thought to be lost for half a millennia
yes kind of like the godswords we've got
in RuneScape the entire fate of king
fall is in the hands of a blind
sheltered Prince who's been
underestimated his entire life David has
created an Incredible Universe here that
I just could not possibly do justice and
the series is narrated by the legendary
Tim Reynolds on Audible he's the
narrator for Red Rising and hundreds of
other fantasy books and look at this
value this is one audible credit 30
hours of content I know you have an
audible credit lying around so while you
chop some trees in RuneScape give it a
listen it's got absolutely glowing
reviews from way cooler people than
myself the fifth and final book in the
series endall just released on Audible

entire journey to finish go click the

step one complete doric's Quest mind all
the ores and verac step two we need to
do the night swword quest need it for
the diary and it's going to get me over
30 smithing which is awesome all I have
to do is pre melee through the ice
dungeon and we should be fine got a
Redberry pie with your name on it thg Go
thankfully everything down here attacks
with melee uh later this week though
we'll be doing a very scary Quest where
we won't just be able to happily pre
melee through everything see getting
those star mining reps in was worth it
42 mining Rune pickaxe now I can uh get
these Blu-ray ores so easily I need two
of them one of them is for the diary one
for the quest got them both and Quest
complete night sword done gets me
straight to 31 smithing now I to make
some blue right limbs on dor Anvil task
complete that should have been the worst
one on the list now uh time to speedrun
some of these task complete haircut
completed for a task and task done and
task done all right time for the most
dangerous task in the entire fador diary
all I have to do is make sure a rock
doesn't fall on my head imagine I
disconnected on one of the Falling Rock
tiles though okay we run right through
and St fixed and task complete one of
the final tasks I have left is to make a
mind TR which I need a mind Talisman for
which I can get from an Essence impling
10% of the time like now no and mind
talsman yes okay I knew it I called it
it's so easy this account security guard
would be so proud of me because I don't
even know the password to this account
that's how secure it is and if I don't
know the password to this account then
no one will only the plugin knows and
can log me in and out also task complete
by the way will I ever stop being afraid
of level 20 Bears probably probably not
and M Tiara Made fador Easy Diaries
completed let's go get our Shield every
completed diary on this account is an
accomplishment and Fally Shield is a
nice addition to the collection even
gives a prayer bonus just for wearing it
so it is I believe my best prayer
offhand at the moment which is really
nice I believe now my total prayer bonus
in that prayer setup is going to be plus
33 speaking of 33 33 or blur very close
to 34 so we're getting there we're
getting pretty close kind of is is the
cander and diary possible on nightmare
mode the rewards a permanent light
source you wear on your head and double
logs from regular trees there's only one
task on here I'm unsure about and that's
the log shortcut near the coal trucks is
it possible to fail that shortcut could
you take damage from it I know the one
in Ry has a very high fail rate so
naturally I had to test this one and
after over a 100 crosses back and fourth
drum roll no failures 30 agility would
never let me fall on an obstacle to
begin with we're good okay time to
speedrun tasks planting some Jud seeds
completed you ever fished a herring
before task completed I need to kill one
of every Elemental for this next diary
task and I figure I might as well
complete Elemental Workshop while I'm at
it all of these guys attack with melee
despite it kind of looking like they
don't this thing has a six tick attack
speed so that's the only reason I'm
flicking this Look Away guys am I
getting more Reckless do I need a mental
reset I I feel safe doing this but I I
don't feel safe running next to a be
that's unaggressive there's something
wrong with me also I still why did that
not count for the diary why is the diary
not finished it should be finished but
I've killed two of these Elementals and
it doesn't count all right Fally Shield
coming in clutch with the 12 prayer
Point recharge okay the F Shield gave me
just enough prayer to get this thing
completed for some reason you just have
to kill the Elementals that are more
North and Elemental Workshop done we're
up to 44 Quest points and I've never
taken damage have I told you about that
yet 34 smithing Elemental shield now in
the POS possession no crafting levels
from that didn't want any that's that's
fine now that I think about it the
headgear is definitely a really big deal
because having an unextinguishable light
source that I can just reclaim at any
time super useful and the lamp is going
to get us to 34 very close to 35 with
three Diaries completed it was time to
finish one of the most important goals
on the account I kept up with my farming
on all fronts the last few days while
doing Diaries and collected all the
supplies I needed 35 herblore I'm making
a ton of energy potions right now I
should have over 50 when I'm done and
I'm so excited to have some energy
recharge on this account finally 36
everyone expected it to happen and it
did 37 herblore one level away from the
Big Goal and after we deant we've got 57
energy potions my life is so good right
now it's been so nice to have this thing
disease free what a harvest 12 herbs
from that I am getting a bit of looming
anxiety that I'm going to take damage to
something really unthreatening and
unexpected before the fire Cape man do I
love building up the total level on this
account though all right our first
pre-fire Cape goal in the master plan
completed I can make my own prayer
potions it's time to stock up on some
ranar and Snape grass that is the most
crucial Skilling level I've gotten on
the account so far to date and I made a
bunch of energy potions on the way okay
I've got my first six prayer pots ready
to go here look at this I'm going to
need 27 full potions for the fire cape
and a lot more for Slayer I've been able
to collect 11 ranar seeds over the
course of 2,000 ogre kills each one of
them is precious and as such I'm only
planting one at a time in my
disease-free herb patch so for the next
16 hours while I wait for all of them to
grow it was time to hit some Skilling
[Music]
goals in between my regularly timed herb
runs I was getting closer to a personal
goal of mine which was 1,000 total level
before the fire Cape I just want to be
able to say that I have a 1,000 total
account that has never taken damage and
then say it again after I get the fire
Cape the easiest levels to Target were
fishing and cooking almost all of which
I got at Barbarian Village a quick 40
levels gained put me up to 964 total
then after a bit of firemaking I was on
the last of my seeds already 52 ranar
farmed over the course of 15 hours which
will turn into 39 full prayer potions
already more than enough for the fire
Cape Now to turn back to the top
priority list it was time to do a quest
I've been putting off for a while now
I'm so excited you guys are here because
we are doing the lost city Quest that's
right this is the quest I essentially
needed a prayer potion for I tried to
save one from crazy archaeologist when I
had one and now that I have plenty of
them I need to do it so I can unlock
kaar and finish up this Slayer goal not
a super scary Quest um I'll be unlocking
all of xanis with it as well which means
easy access to Puro Puro for more
implings when I need them I can't bring
any gear to us so this is the setup I
brought a full prayer pot and some fire
blast casts which should absolutely rip
through the tree Spirit boss I think
we'll make quick work of it Cav monk how
you doing my man this right here is why
you need a prayer potion for this Quest
once you go down here we get drained to
three prayer points that's right very
scary obviously I could prayer flick but
why leave any margin for error here it's
it's just completely not worth it and
bronze axe yes okay we got the bronze
axe now we run and since this is a Quest
from 2002 the easiest safe spot in the
world was overlooked just hide behind
this little mushroom perfect time to
tell you guys that I'm so close to
700,000
[Music]
subscribers okay tree Spirit dead I'm
going to cut a couple branches because I
really don't want to come back here if I
ever need another one of these for any
reason it's unfortunate that we most
likely won't be getting fairy rings on
here unless I find a way to conquer
nature Spirit which means finding a way
to jump over The Grotto Bridge without
failing in three times I've been trying
to cook something up for that with 6our
logout timers but it needs more testing
and I don't have High Hopes so I don't
know we'll see lost city done 47 Quest
points now and once I H 70 combat I'll
be able to use this Slayer Master
instead of Van yeah I know I have to get
a task from him he's gives me Terrible
Things unfortunately still four combat
levels away but the questing doesn't
stop just yet goodbye weapons Master you
guys hiding something in here like an
ancient Shield or something Shield of
arav completed okay it's time for our
first scary quest in a little while
we're doing waterfall Quest not a scary
Quest usually for like anyone but there
are several very simple mistakes that
could wipe 200 hours of progress for me
today if I click this rock without using
a rope on it first I float down the
river and take damage account over it if
I click on this tree instead of using a
rope on it I float down the river and
take damage if I click this door instead
of this Barrel account over if I
misclick at all in the final room of the
quest the room floods and I take damage
account over but the worst thing in this
Quest are these Moss Guardians halfway
through the quest I need to run to this
chest then to this grave sounds easy
enough with protect from melee but these
Moss Guardians attack with melee and
Magic we'll have to be very very careful
I'm insanely paranoid of a misclick in
this spot like this guy goodbye Captain
Dorne you just lost half your HP my man
nice try Okay rope on dead tree
and The Psychotic side of me is honestly
questioning the safety of this Barrel
despite having used it like 30 times
over the course of the last like 12
years okay the barrel is fine we made it
despite a lot of these sounding like
things I shouldn't worry about with 200
hours invested into the account it
amplifies everything every move is
magnified and stressful even quests I've
done 20 times I should be high enough
combat level to where everything is
unaggressive to me in this dungeon but
we keep pre melee on the entire time
anyway got the pebble it's time for the
Moss Guardian
which I'm I'm definitely a little I'm a
little stressed about this is an all too
familiar run right now just this exact
path I went down over a 100 times to
complete dwarf cannon in episode one and
now we're running down to do waterfall
Quest here we are okay so essentially I
can't even let the Moss Guardian hit me
once um the Mage attack is insanely
accurate if it were to hit it's I mean
it's just it's over so um I need to be
tagged by either a zombie or a skeleton
the entire time uh this is not multic
combat so I can just stay in combat with
one thing the only way we get through to
the end is if we dance with a zombie all
the way the thing is the zombie can't
actually make it all the way inside
where the chest
is so there's going to be a moment where
I either need to switch to a
skeleton or just go for the
chest and hope that the Moss Guardian
isn't in range just want to play this
really slow because I know the zombie
will lose me in a second here
so if I walk it can stay with
me it's actually in a good
spot
oh okay okay okay oh that was really
stressful I was so worried about it
pathing out behind the chest and tagging
me yes we got the ear okay oh we're just
going to teleport out not running
through that again yes dude I'm so happy
my heart is pounding oh that is the most
stressful part of the quest big time all
right time to lock in rope on
Rock can't make any dumb mistakes now
rope on
tree now glarial's amulet on probably
should have been on before but we open
the door thankfully we're out of the
combat level of the skeleton Mages
otherwise uh praying melee here wouldn't
be the best
but since they're unagro because we're
high enough combat level we can just
pray melee there so that's what makes
this Quest possible in the first place
and now we run past the fire
Giants and we are chilling okay a single
mistake in this room kills me so I just
want to make sure I'm placing the right
thing on the right object object one
Earth One water and one air on every
single pillar okay now glarial's amulet
on garial and now we use the n on the
Chalice otherwise the room would flood
and that is a very sketchy Quest out of
the way waterfall Quest done and look
what we got from it 30 strength 40
attack I can now wear all my Rune
weapons my Rune axe my Rune pickaxe and
