  • Equalibrium Man is a snowflake ironman account born from my love of Runescape's early game grinds and my interested in various restricted accounts. Equal Man is an Ultimate Ironman with the goal of leveling all skills as equally as possible, no more than 1 level apart. If I mess up, I have to restart. How far will this generation's Equal Man take us?

      Also, I believe Slayer only gets trickier as the levels go up. Unless you resort to using the training methods that lvl 3 Skillers use for Slayer, it's impossible to train it without getting xp in other skills. Prayer is also tough unless you want to spend hours picking up bone spawns.

    For the longevity of the account, I think that after 20 levels, the variance could be 2, and 30 could be 3 and so on, but any time you move up in tens, you have to re-equalize them. This prevents some errors while still keeping the heart of the challenge

    This is honestly more stressful than watching Settled's 1hp ironman, because that guy's probably one of the better Runescape players, he's proven in the past that he's a menace when it comes to researching, he'll be fine. But this series seems way less possible than what he's up to. Literally every time I saw you doing slayer I was anxious because that seems so easy to totally screw up! Yeah you can edge the combat stats, but surely if you're constantly edging those, something'll break eventually! And then there's Herblore... Prayer? So interesting. I'm really excited to see the mid game. Also, I think you need to unlock Kourend early next time so that you can use the Library for Runecrafting XP, I bet that's gonna be way faster xp/hour once you're in the 20s. Can't wait to see episode three starring Equal Baby!

    @Tuzzz94 Před 2 měsíci +1

    Hey man. Cool series! I actually used to play an account in the past with the exact same idea of keeping all the levels even. The account is called "Stat Balance". You can look it up (You will see that my Hunter and Magic are out of line with the rest. The asymmetry of my Magic level is too long of a story to explain right now (foolish mistakes were made), but with Hunter I can explain that I was unreasonably hungry for D imps =D)
    Perhaps I can give you some tips & tricks. I haven't played that account in quite a numbers of years so it is quite possible I'm not aware of a new meta to keep certain stats leveled so keep that in mind. I also was a regular ironman so that could change some things as well. I also haven't quite watched both of the episodes yet at the moment I'm typing this so at the risk of mentioning something here that you already addressed in one of the two episodes or something that you're already doing or wanting to do, I'll mention some tips (I'll perhaps edit my comment later if necessary if you indeed mentioned some of these things):
    1: You mentioned in the introduction that you didn't want to bother trying to keep your hitpoints leveled with the rest of your stats. In the longer term, it is actually quite possible to keep your hitpoints leveled with the rest of your stats. The biggest challenge I've found with this particular account build is actually to keep your slayer level equal to your hitpoints level; not your combat stats (because even if you will kill every monster that you kill whilst being on a slayer task (which you won't), you'd still get a default 1.33 HP xp (iirc) for every 1 Slayer xp that you get. I'll get back to why leveling HP with XP in combat skills actually isn't as much of an issue in the long term)
    The way to balance out your Slayer XP with your HP XP is primarily through using methods and strategies that allow you to get relatively more slayer XP per Hitpoints XP that you get such as superior creatures, Jad/Zuk tasks and boss tasks (large XP bonus at the end), Cannoning (half the ranged XP but no HP XP), poisoning, and even potentially using obscure methods such as dealing the last blow on a monster (whilst on task) that an alt account has damaged for like 95% of the way. You'll still get half the slayer XP that way whilst barely getting any HP xp (unless Jagex changed this some time in the past few years). Remember by the way that all the things I just listed are options; You don't have to apply all of them all the time.
    I would also use (diary) lamps and XP rewards pretty much exclusively on Slayer. Even if you manage to balance out your total Slayer XP with your HP XP with relative ease, it is still a good thing to invest every XP book/lamp/tome on Slayer because this allows you an extra buffer to kill monsters off a slayer-task such as Zulrah and Barrows where you will get HP XP without Slayer XP.
    In my experience it isn't necessary to worry too much about keeping your total HP XP with the rest of your combat stats (although some effort is definitely still required). Like I said: You should get most of your ranged XP from cannoning (no HP xp), you can train your Magic potentially without using it for combat (although obviously some bosses/monsters require that), and you can also use a method like Pest Control, or balancing kegs in the warrior's Guild to get HP-less Strength XP.
    2: Something I noticed that Slayermusiq wasn't really applying in his OLAAT series was this you can basically get 3 levels -1 XP per level circuit at a time. For example: Say all your stats are at level 15 except for Hunter and Slayer, which are both at the very beginning of level 14 at exactly 2107 XP. Say now you do the Natural History Quiz which will give you exactly 1000 XP in both these skills bringing them up to exactly 3107 XP. If you look at the experience table on the wiki you will see that now you're literally 8 XP short from reaching level 17 because level 17 starts at 3115 XP. This means you're effectively still level 16 in both Hunter and Slayer, whilst the rest of your stats are still level 15. This allows you to -like I said- get 3 levels -1 XP at a time when you are going to change your level brackets/circuits. This will thus also allow you to knock out certain quests that have a certain amount of XP reward noticeably earlier. Be aware though of situations where you would potentially get XP in those respective skills during the quest itself.
    If you have any questions feel free to ask :)
