No one ever mentions this, which explains why I went years not knowing, when on the bank presets window (Where you can see all your presets listed) You can click and drag to move presets around. I spent years overwriting presets in to my first 2 slots for quicker loading until I happened to casually see a friend doing it when streaming to me on disc

[@ProtoxxGaming]

Good one! Take my upvote for visibility

[@TheSCPStudio]

That's UI 101 though. It's intuitive these days. You should always at least try dragging because it's prominent in nearly all touch screen applications. That's why no one mentions it lol.

[@Shroudey]

@@TheSCPStudio Touch screen? I'm not talking about mobile lol.. RS is a PC game first, not a mobile game, mobile has only been around for a year, most of us have played for the better part of 2 decades lol

[@Hermit_Wish]

7:37 you can drag those numbered prayer icons to your ability bars. This way you can activate quick prayers using keybinds.

[@scottmacadams9129]

I think one of the tips I always give a new player is action bar binding. It so useful to have it auto change an action bar depending on the weapon/type that is equipped. Works with bank presets too. Can find it here: Gameplay > Combat & Action Bar > Action Bar Binding.

[@danielrowling5]

Something many also don't know is that when you are in the bank preset window, you can drag and drop stuff from your actual inventory or equipment, to the backpack or inventory of the preset. Useful if you need to make a quick little adjustment.

[@RampagedRS]

That Drakens' Medallion one was new to me. Thanks so much - going to help a ton when doing my clue runs! :D

[@piggers3263]

Same bro, that blew my mind I always went to that little blood pool for 10 charges 💀

[@ProtoxxGaming]

@@piggers3263 you went there how many times? Ouch

[@piggers3263]

@@ProtoxxGaming a lot of times lets just say that 🤣

[@pooflinger7]

You know if you're in Mory, it won't consume a charge? I usually just lodestone to canifis and go from there. Slightly more time but I haven't used any charges in idk how long

[@rmtsapphire0]

You can also ecrophial into medallion for no charge.

[@itsyaboidragon]

For Ed3 instead of logging out you rejoin matchmaking using your group chat interface and then it turn it off and ready up. You can create a new run immediately.

[@VihMelchior]

The options at gameplay tab is so vast, has so many options and hidden ones, that I think that tab deserves a video just to cover what every option do. Hey protox, i think this is a great idea

[@ProtoxxGaming]

I kinda cover the best ones in my interface guide but yeah that place is a maze.

[@xXzacatak660Xx]

Protoxx 2:12 time,,, PC is 7x7 unless 125qps, its its 9x9 but mobile is 13x13..... i just want 13x13 on PC ROFL you think this is on purpose for mobile player or just a bug??? >.>

​@@xXzacatak660Xx 99% sure it's intentional, picking up items on mobile is a chore, even with the large loot area. Keep accidentally tapping things, and you have to tap and hold to get the menu to open the box, and area loot closes automatically when you've picked up everything in range.

[@joshhelton2007]

I've been playing for a very long time and there's a lot of these things that I didn't know. Great video, keep up the good content

[@guitarisdeathofme]

[@bloodchron1880]

Yo that Drake Medallion with congealed blood blew my freakin mind! I use that for clues allll the time and I had been making sure it never ran out cause I kept dipping it into the blood pool. 10 charges doesnt last btw! That just helped me so much.

[@rmtsapphire0]

If you never want Drakens medallion to use a charge you can ectophial to ectofuntus and then teleporting with the medallion for free.

[@JuniusGaming]

As a returning player this was very helpful thank you

[@chinapappan2560]

Thanks for this! Really needed that camera widening tip for zammy p7. Can't wait to try it

[@MegaChickenfish]

4:37 And this works with the lumbridge ring as well, which is a lot easier than navigating its interface and accidentally cabbage-porting myself. 7:20 didn't know any of that either, wow. Was always annoying trying to exit my current aura with 30 secs left to add the next one quickly mid combat. 8:13 Also had no idea you could tick-eat the blubber, the brew, AND the food at the same time. I knew brew + food but not all 3, which I should really consider taking advantage of since I have the +10% extra health from food perk on.

[@MrBusrunner]

The alching also works with legendary pet, niche but interesting

[@roberthicks8835]

I love how we can now store Spirits (ore and wood) in there respective boxes

[@paulhelfrich682]

Woah, been playing 10 years and I didn't know a lot of this.

[@kizam5760]

Freedom Classis camera mode is the best tip, wish I knew about this earlier. The extra zoom is huge

[@chinedunnorom303]

9:53 So long as you've used a portable skilling station you only need to remain in its vicinity and you'll get the benefits for a couple minutes (Over 5 I believe) e.g You can bank stand in the g.e on w84 after using the station once

[@WiscoDbo]

Been playing RS since 2003, and I can honestly say 95% of this is new information. Thank you for this one.

[@Kranon]

Yeah, that's the thing with playing for so long. Once you quit, Jagex adds multiple QOL features you miss during that hiatus.

[@ProtoxxGaming]

This video did you well then! :)

[@kenny2232]

That Dwarven army axe is so good, I recently started a new Ironman and the free crafting xp from the knots and lapis were great!

[@hiitsjustdee]

8:35 you can also hold down the keybind instead of breaking your keybard :)

[@Josh_from_Texas]

Thanks for the little slurp/lick at the very end :)

[@abonyibalazs95]

I instantly subscribed when he told us about the increased rare drop chances

[@sniperlif3]

The thing I learned was the automatic use of prismatics/lamps/etc and that there was a new rune pouch. Been a LONG time since I logged in.

[@Piraja27]

Pretty much all of this didnt exist when I started. But I did learn something new, mainly the quick saving preset.

[@tygerlillee]

I recommend the Shattered Worlds skybox setting if your game is too dark on mobile. The game was almost unplayable for me before I made this change. (On mobile, long press the map icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen to access the skybox/filter settings.)

[@Kranon]

It also depends on which area you are. For Brightness "Daystone" skybox will always be the best one around. For less eye strain "Nightstone + Warm Filter" is an amazing combo, with "Amber Haze" being also a great skybox although extremely annoying to obtain.

[@tygerlillee]

@@Kranon thank you for these tips!

[@trickysonnex4350]

that draken medallion tip i didnt know about. ive been recharging it at the alter everytime thanks lol

[@derkaderkamohamadallaackbarnut]

Also, like all of these are newer things.. Which is great for new new and returning players. I did not know a lot of these and I started right before RS2. I am glad everyone was ignorant then. It was a fun social time.

Didn't know about the world hop setting. I'd love if Jagex went through all of their obscure settings menus and just copied all of them into the regular settings menu. I always like to just methodically go through all of the settings to see what's possible and tweak to my liking. That just doesn't work when the settings menu doesn't have all of the settings.

[@lTSR0BBY]

Shout out, been playing for years and some of these are a huge qol improvement. Jagex needs a settings interface rework asap

[@AboutThatTime420]

Just jumped into to Runescape today. I played for a solid few years back around the time it first came out and never revisted until recently. I tried OSRS and it's great but I'm loving Runescape so far. It's got all the charm I remember while looking so much better visually. Everything still feels extremely familiar

At 2:58 - I just followed your UI setup guide. I have a 2k ultrawide monitor so I tried scaling above 100%, but noticed all the text in the game got scaled up as well. Pretty much any tooltip or popup had text that became unreadable. Does the chat box text size fix that as well?

[@ProtoxxGaming]

You can only scale so much (Chat box/buff bar). I scaled my interface in that video purely to simulate a 1080p monitor. If you do have a 1440p monitor like myself you might want to just drag out the interfaces or make them "flatter" to get a similar setup. I for example have all my interfaces at the bottom due to the amount of pixels 2560x1440p has

Lol I just updated some of the wiki pages about loot range regarding the lorehound yesterday haha

[@ProtoxxGaming]

A wikian? Or casual editor? :p

@Protoxx you stated some false information at 2:18. Lore hound does not help with archeology. This was even confirmed by jagex as having no additional benefits since the lore hound has not really been updated since it was released.

[@MrKahrum]

can you make an ironman start guide? like level 20 in everything (including 3[4] easy 80s to get 20 invention), pile of quests, ect. styled for Fresh Start of course, but I, at least, advise avoidance of the volatile market in a guide for the game mode.
