I hope you guys enjoy this one. If you did enjoy it, be sure to do all the usual stuff that helps me out. I upload 2-3x a week and do a hcim series as well as other historical runescape videos.

    Imagine if something as difficult as the inferno was released back then with the lack of guides 😅 The inferno cape would practically be an urban legend among players.

    Dude I remember camping it for the obby cape … man I couldn’t sell enough chaos runes to buy it lol
    I remember getting the fire cape before my 8th grade Hawaii science camp field trip! I stayed up till 4 am doing fight cave attempts and when we came to the field trip the next day I had not slept … but I was so proud to brag to my friends I got the first fire cape at school

    I remember there was a Jad flash game where you had to watch the animation and click to the correct prayer and people would use it to practice their prayer switches so that they could be prepared when they finally got to Jad. I remember doing that for ages before I ever even made it to Jad, finally got to him, and died anyways due to nerves.

    • @AdamOwenBrowning
      @AdamOwenBrowning Před rokem

      there are new tools for this exact purpose outside of Flash now, and it's neat that they exist at all!
      It's so cool how quickly people built that learning tool, and a little sad that time is moving so fast these little things become harder (or impossible for some) to see and appreciate.

    First time I walked into Tzhaar on accident and saw the landscape I thought it was so cool. Saw a bunch of high level monsters and freaked out thinking I was going to get mauled and lose all my gear. Didn't realize they were non-aggressive. Used to love cape/shield hunting with my buddy.

    I remember once going to the fight pits for fun, and there was a clan event happening on the world. They basically must of had 100s of people there, it was pretty sick since the fight lasted well over an hour an was mostly them trying to survive the monsters and constant 1s (after a certain point you would actually take 1 damage every tick)

    When the fight kiln first came out, the cape was only melee and it had no effect, just the obsidian triangle going down design. They updated it quickly after to add a glow effect as well as the range and mage versions.

    • @Void_Delphox
      @Void_Delphox Před rokem

      The fight kiln didn't release the mage and range variants until 2 years after the initial kiln release. I wouldn't call that quick.

    The fight caves clip @ 7 minutes into the video reminded me of something that I definitely did not miss from the old days; interacting with the prayer menu would interrupt your character's combat and you would have to click on the monster again to continue attacking. >.<
    Anyway, nice video.

    One of the top highlights of my runescape career was winning the RuneHQ fight pits event. I had never killed a player up to that point in my life, but I did what anyone would have to do to win. Get good tank gear, sip brews, hide, and take out guys with low hp. There was over 500 people there and to win, its something ill never forget!

    8:25 I remember back in the day when I got my first firecape I went with crystal bow and guthans.. it took me like 3 runs, and the time I did it was when I got him behind Italy.. I nearly passed out because I had a panic attack, and I had to put on auto retaliate and kill the healers behind the safespot while calming myself down lol. Jad is for some reason, the only thing in my entire life that causes me to have panic attacks when I get to him lol; I've even done the fight kiln like a dozen times and it never makes me panic like fight caves Jad does.

    14:50 is extremely wrong. Fight kiln on release was the hardest content in the game that few people got
    It was neutral combat style and was pure black called tokhaar kal
    I used it on release for corp/sigil hunting after watching “castlewars” becoming first trim comp in runescape

    at 7:40 hes so right, thou jad is even a chanledge even on old school, i got my first fire cape at 99 rng and combat 124, using blow pipe and dragon darts and vigour. I out dmged all the healers, all i had to do was prayer flick the mage and range prayer. i think i finished it in 56 minutes.
