Outlines
ðŪ RuneScape Nightmare Mode Challenge
The speaker embarks on a high-stakes RuneScape Nightmare Mode challenge with a 1 HP account, risking account deletion upon taking any damage. The primary goal is to achieve the first-ever fire cape without getting hit. The journey is divided into three phases, with the first focusing on reaching 70 combat and completing 29 Slayer tasks. The speaker discusses the need to safely grind for Slayer points to unlock broad bolts, an essential component for an 80-hour mystery challenge. Progress is detailed, including combat level increases, defense training, and the strategic use of resources like bone bolts. A sponsor, Factor, is introduced for providing pre-prepared meals, which the speaker appreciates for their convenience and health benefits.
ð Safe Slayer Task Strategy
The speaker opts to skip a dangerous Slayer task, 170 lizards, due to the risk of damage from the desert heat or the lizards themselves. Instead, a safer task of killing a caged creature in the Wizard's Tower is chosen, providing ample XP and a relief from the tension of high-risk tasks. The speaker emphasizes the importance of maintaining Slayer points and the strategy of doing caged monsters for Slayer to minimize risk. The session includes reaching milestone levels, such as 70 range and 60 defense, and the careful management of resources like prayer potions. The speaker also contemplates changing the pace by engaging in mini-games, but acknowledges the impossibility due to the 1 HP constraint.
ðĪš Soul Wars Strategy for Ammunition
The speaker devises a strategy to obtain the best ammunition for fight capes in RuneScape, specifically enchanted diamond bolts, by participating in Soul Wars, a PvP and PvM minigame. To mitigate the risk of damage, the speaker plans to control both the player and enemy teams in a 1v1 setup, disabling attack options to prevent accidental self-harm. The process involves earning Zeal points to purchase Spoils of War, which have a chance of containing the desired adamant bolts. The speaker details the precautions taken and the method's execution, including the grinding process to obtain a significant number of adamant bolts, which are crucial for improving damage per second (DPS) in future challenges.
ðđ Grinding for Enchanted Diamond Bolts
The speaker recounts the extensive grinding process in Soul Wars to obtain 1,000 adamant bolts, which took nearly 20 hours and 66 crates. The process involved opening crates with a 1 in 6 chance of containing the bolts, which proved to be a test of luck and patience. Alongside the bolts, the speaker also acquired other valuable items like runes and seeds. The speaker also discusses the importance of reaching higher levels in various skills to prepare for the upcoming fire cape challenge, emphasizing the need for increased DPS and prayer to minimize the risk of mistakes.
ð Revealing the Mystery Grind and Future Goals
The speaker reveals the next phase of the challenge, which involves reaching 55 Slayer and completing a hard clue scroll, referred to as the 'mystery grind'. The speaker estimates the difficulty of this task on Nightmare Mode to be around 1% success rate, given the account's constraints. The completion of a hard clue scroll is considered a significant achievement and a final step before risking everything on obtaining the fire cape. The speaker also hints at the possibility of attempting to obtain black d'hide, another major gear upgrade, to further improve the account's capabilities before the ultimate challenge.

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 I've
survived 200 hours without ever taking
damage there's three things left on the
to-do list before we risk this beautiful
account on a Flawless run of the fight
caves to obtain our fire Cape one of
those things is an estimated 80h hour
mystery grind that I'll be revealing in
this video but to start this week off it
was time to finish something that's
taken far too long cave crawler task
done I have a very important mission in
these next 20 to 25 hours of gameplay
and that's get 70 combat by any means
necessary and get to 29 Slayer tasks
completed it's all part of the plan
without 70 combat I'll never get enough
Slayer points for broad bolts so I'm
about to start my week off by doing a
ton of training all of it is going to
helps so much when it's fire cave
[Music]
time 57 defense getting closer to my
goal I've been collecting a bunch of
these insold heads as well and these big
bones I still want to get that prayer
higher ideally in the 50s at least 67
range beautiful three levels away from
my mini goal right now and 68 combat
we're finally range based on the account
which means magic is no longer deciding
my combat levels for the longest time I
wasn't getting any combat levels from
range so completely out of bone bolts
I've been here for quite a while I've
been uh collecting so many heads I think
I have almost 30 in the bank don't
really want to spend all my money right
now 5200 bone bolts should be good it
was time to start running through some
easy tasks to get 29 completed that way
once I hit 70 combat I can start getting
big Point bonuses on my 30th 40th and
50th task those three tasks at kaar
should be just enough Slayer points to
unlock broad bolts one of the main
pieces I need for this 80h hour mystery
grind you ever seen a bat task completed
because we just did one 29 tasks done
now we can just beine it to 70 combat
should be like 15 16 hours away because
I'm doing it all on long range which is
much much slower but I do want that
Defense level up I have so many insold
heads stored up in my bank right now
this should get me kind of close to
another combat level first prayer level
down on the insold head Purge I'm about
12 in right now unlocked Redemption
very uh not I'm not going to be using
that I'm going to get an XP lamp here I
don't even know what to use this on
anymore I guess Slayer Slayer is my
biggest problem right now so I guess
that I've already got my herblore I've I
like where my prayer is at right now and
the big 50 prayer let's go dude such a
nice level to have 58 defense it's been
a long day at the ogres what do you know
68 range and 69 combat I should have 70
combat in the next like 4 hours I want
to say I'm happy to report there has
been no close call at ogres since that
one from way back no no no no no no no
no no no oh and 59 defense One More
Level until I hit my pre-fire Cape goal
for defense full inventory of insult
heads coming into the bank along with
some seeds it's good that I'm restocking
some ranar seeds as well started the
week out exactly 200 hours played and
we're already 24 hours higher at 224
after some farming Slayer tasks and sold
heads and a bunch of training One More
Level to finish it up and move on and 69
range I think that's it yes 70 combat we
can actually use a decent Slayer Master
now oh the tides are turning and I'm one
level away from both 70 range and 60
defense those are such Milestone levels
all right it's time back to stressful
Slayer and putting the account at risk
it's time for our first kalar task and
there's several that would be pretty
damn risky we have to dodge some bad
luck here because I only have enough for
one cancel what's it going to be first
task of the new Slayer Master it's time
to make your life better watch this you
know what would be awesome meal prepping
without the prepping part that's what
today's sponsor Factor does for me look
at these meals aren't they beautiful
they get delivered to your doorstep
pre-prepared and ready to eat in 2
minutes I've been using factor for years
now I even recently upped my orders to
eight meals a week because I love the
convenience of always having something
to eat especially on days when I go to
the gym I can even specifically choose
meals from their Protein Plus selection
stock them up in the fridge and if I'm
ever ever feeling lazy I grab one from
the fridge heat up a delicious meal in 2
minutes and I'm good to go and you can
see everything that's in these meals
there's no surprises it's cheaper and
healthier than takeout or fast food
they've got meals to accommodate
basically every diet out there you'll
definitely find something you like and
it's really no sweat you can always skip
a week if you need to so go change your
life for the better by using my code
settled May 50 to get 50% off your first
box or you can scan my QR code on screen
to get yourself started it is such a
good decision thank you to factor for
sponsoring back to nightmare mode and
170 lizards no this is like one of three
bad tasks for me could I theoretically
do 170 lizards with no damage absolutely
but I'd have to make sure I don't take
damage from the desert heat or the
lizards so I'd have to go there with
lots of water skins all my prayer
potions manually use the Ice Coolers all
for an extremely mediocre task this
would be over an hour in the middle of
the desert so I'm going to use my one
single skip on this and just just hope I
get something
okay that is better than okay that is so
good I can kill the Caged one in the
Wizard's tower that is such a safe task
and there's so much xp to be gone with
that that is a good one okay the skip
was worth it I have literally zero
Slayer points now so we are treading on
thin ice although I will get 50 points
after this task which is nice being able
to do caged monsters for Slayer is such
a relief it's such a weight off my back
to uh not really have to pay attention
to anything I just sit here we're going
to be getting some very nice Milestone
levels from this task 79 XP per kill
this task took over 2 hours and I did
get a couple drops worth Telly grabbing
mainly a couple inold heads I can't use
just yet these require 72 magic but will
probably be used before the fire cap 48
Slayer and task done we're back in the
green on our Slayer points and only 5K
to go till 49 150 bass lisks is my next
task this should be very doable it it's
just going to come down to finding a
reliable lure spot good safe spot for
these guys also going to need a mirror
shield for this one I'm bringing my last
four prayer pots for this task I do need
to collect some more snap crass later if
I'm even close to running out of prayer
I'm just going to teleport out don't
want to risk anything but this should
get me through the task I am going to
make sure my mirror Shield is equipped
at all times in fact uh I don't know why
I brought my hard leather Shield but I'm
going to keep it in the bottom of my
inventory cuz I don't want to
accidentally click on it Asis have a
higher defense than lesser demon
surprisingly enough and my point when I
say that is the longer attack is the
higher the odds that I make a really
dumb simple mistake to end the account
and that's always a little uh you know
unnerving the nice part about these guys
is that they are unaggressive so the
safe spot is right here it's a corner
trap but it also works across these
rocks and I'm not going to be attacking
that one okay there is only a few of
them that I can actively attack and they
will actually get stuck because some of
them their wander range is too far but
others like this one can be Corner
trapped right here on these rocks I'm
just going to make sure they're Corner
TR C like I'll keep my prayer up for a
little while longer than I need to just
to make sure I want to be very very
cautious on this task I just feel like
it's tasks like this that I expect my
account to be deleted on not like some
super mechanical boss but the everyday
Slayer task in fact maybe what I'll do
is just prayer flick during the kill
even though it's safe spotted just as a
paranoid fail safe in case anything were
to happen and this also ensures that I
don't look away from the screen for the
next 2 hours nice 49 Slayer going to
keep going 74 left of these guys uh it's
going pretty well no close calls
oh okay that that was definitely the
closest call and that wasn't even that
close of a call yes big milestone level
70 range black dehy officially unlocked
I wonder if we can get our hands on some
would be such a nice upgrade before the
fire C I wonder if it's
possible went through two and a half
prayer pots for this one but definitely
worth it 11k slayerx in like 2 or 3
hours I'd say which isn't too bad for my
current tasks I'm about to really change
the pace and do something that you might
have never expected to see on this
account but very quickly before I do
that I'm going to put some finishing
touches on the stats boom 6 minutes off
a system update and we polish off the
final Defense level pre fire Cape I
think with 60 defense 70 range 50 prayer
we can officially cross off one of the
four pre-fire Cape goals off the list
all three stats are way higher from when
I made the goal and I feel I would feel
pretty comfortable going into a fire
Cape with these stats now I would like
to keep getting my stats higher and if
we make it alive to this 80-hour mystery
grind I think we'll be seeing our range
hit 75 maybe even 80 over the next
couple weeks so there's still time to
get in much better shape before the fire
Cape the more DPS the more prayer the
less possibility to make mistakes so I
need anything I can get literally
anything that can make it easier is
better in case you were curious about
the impact of the defense levels I've
been training there are some fight cave
monsters that are now much more unlikely
to hit me while I'm most likely going to
be praying Mage or range it's not
foolproof but now the odds are on my
side it's likely that I can tank a
smaller mistake if it happens clearing
out the rest of the insold heads every
level helps 51 now I'm going to clear
the rest of these up and then it's time
for a stressful but also fun change of
scenery I think it'll be
cool mini games almost all of them are
virtually impossible for an account with
1 HP which is a shame because things
like the last man standing store would
be so good for me
lots of supplies and ammo but if I
loaded up into a Last Man Standing game
I'd take damage and destroy my account
in seconds you go down the miname list
and it's basically all locked off for a
nightmare account good luck doing any of
these mini games without damage but I've
been thinking of ways to get my hands on
the best ammo possible for fight capes I
have this Rune crossbow I've been dying
to use but ammo is so hard to come by
I'm closing in on Broad bolts which I'm
going to still need no matter what but
what if I could get my hands on some
enchanted diamond bolts for the fight
cave I'd improve my DPS by 20% over the
broad bolts and there is a way to do it
the answer is soul Wars a PVP and pvm
miname but it's a lot different than
most mini games on this list if I load
it up into any old soul Wars Lobby right
now my account gets deleted in seconds I
can't participate in the usual mosh pit
of damage that happens but in Sol Wars
you can 1 V one people granted people
aren't the only dangerous thing in Soul
Wars but it is by far the main threat so
what if I could eliminate that threat
I'd be able to buy Spoils of War from
the shop which have a one in six chance
of giving Addie bolts if I can Farm up a
th000 Addie bolts it would be a crazy
Improvement to my setup before the fire
cape and before you say it no this is
not the 80h hour mystery grind I was
talking about but we'll have to take a
few precautions to make sure this grind
is remotely safe even in a 1V one that's
because my opponent is going to be me
now all I had to do was get through the
soul Wars tutorial wa jump scare bro but
now big Avatar in front of me definitely
going to be the scariest miname tutorial
I will do on this account and the only
miname tutorial I will do on this
account because this is the only one I
can play essentially I remember this
tutorial having deaths and damage but it
must have been a figment of my
imagination okay see never mind we we do
in fact die during the tutorial but it's
more like he just teleports you to the
graveyard you don't actually die very
important distinction the health does
not go down okay time to take
precautions the plan to challenge myself
to tons of Sol Wars games that way I can
control the enemy team on my other
account most important thing my other
account will have attack options
completely disabled so that I don't
accidentally delete myself and auto
retaliate must be off at all times for
the same reason I think with that we
should be good monsters in the arena are
also naturally unaggressive which is
good and with this method I won't even
have to touch the enemy team Avatar in
order to get Zeal to spend in the shop I
have to do certain things in the game
such as capturing and controlling the
three main points of the map and how
many fragments I sacrificed to the
soulle altar in the center lastly how
long the game goes on for which should
be around 4 to 5 minutes a game okay I
just surrendered on my other account
that gives me my first 16 Zeal wasn't
too bad it doesn't seem like there's
anything too risky about this method
with the precautions I've taken I just
really need to make sure that my pre
melee is up if I'm ever attacking a
monster it takes 30 Zeal to buy a crate
I have 16 so I can get roughly four to
five crates an hour if I'm consistent
there's lots of drops I can get from
these crates aside from adamant bolts 2
it's a it's a pretty nice loot table but
once I get 1,000 Addie bolts I am
leaving since it's really all I'm after
I have a fire Cape to go for
[Music]
so we've got our first 130 Zeal which
means we can buy four Spoils of War time
for a loot box opening let's equip the
Rune crossbow to manifest these Addie
bolts crate number one
ranar seed nice Rune legs pretty good
okay we'll take it number two not great
rubies would be good if I could use Ruby
bolts but a ruby bolt would kill me so
Soul runes are okay and last one Rune
full Helm okay well not a bad haul but
no Edie bolts unfortunately all in all
pretty good money
[Music]
though okay four more crates to open
let's do
it okay that was a pretty good one with
almost three 300 natur runes and no add
bolts unfortunately we got some arrows
close but not not exactly it the Solar
Wars potions are absurdly good by the
way because they're everything in one
including a prayer potion to make sure I
never drop my prayer points to a scary
level I have a sound that will play as
soon as my prayer points drop to 35 like
subscribe and drink a potion subscribe
and drink a potion that plays every time
I'm not taking any chances prey melee
stays on okay just a quick little two
crate opening let's be fast with it yes
there we go baby adamant bolts first one
284 not a bad drop my God my first
usable ammo with my Rune crossbow it's
been so long obviously I don't want to
waste these bolts I desperately need
them uh but it is still cool to have
