How to Inferno for Dummies -

Every Friday on stream I'll be running up to 3 example Infernos:
Bofa/Tbow/s65 GM Speedrun.
Click below for more info...
Each week I'll be doing 2-3 runs.
The first run in each livestream/vod/youtube video will be a Budget Bofa run - this is the in-depth big explanation run with all the basic tools and tips and tricks each time.
The second run of the day may be bofa/tbow/speedrun style and each week I'll switch it up to explore a different aspect of the Inferno - or to show a different CA task.
The Bofa budget setup is the lowest gear I'd recommend, although it's certainly possible to do Inferno with much more budget setups.
Bofa Setup: i.imgur.com/rO...
Tbow Setup: imgur.com/fxhos5k
s65 Setup: Join / discord (Inferno Speeds Discord)
Amethyst or Dragon darts recommended.
95 range, 95 mage, 80 defence, 92 prayer recommended, higher is better.
Some downgrades:
Zaryte vambraces to Barrows gloves
Ancestral top to Ahrims top or Mystic top
Kodai to Ancient staff or Ancient sceptre
Ring of the gods (i) to Ring of suffering (i)
Masori to d'hide
5 brews as a minimum is good if you want more slots for restores or other things.
Magic legs are NOT considered valuable in any way.
Ring of the Gods (i) in combination with Devout Boots give essentially infinite prayer with minimal flicking, negating the use for any Lightbearer or Eldritch, which I consider to be heavy noob traps that only detriment first-capers. Crystal armor in general has amazing prayer bonus and range defence, while Masori has all round very good defence and Tbow makes the magers rapid.
These runs have a focus on good solves, melee dig preparation, and simple prayer flicking solutions. The max gear/speedrun has more emphasis on lossless 1 tick flicking as it's very simple and I expect anyone in that gear to be capable already or capable of learning it fast.
The plugin to hide dead NPC's and prevent misclicks is "Entity Hider", mark "Hide Dead NPC's" in the Plugin. There are not many other useful plugins for Inferno, Tile Markers can be good, but don't overuse them!
Tons of players have had great success in the following days trying to imitate this style and while there will always be a learning curve to the content, putting some time in to learn the likes of 1 tick alternation at the very least will add a powerful tool to help you on your road to first cape.

Great guide! 3rd attempt and I am at Zuk already. Your explanation on how to solve the later waves was super useful. Inferno cape coming soon hopefully Update: 10th attempt and 3rd zuk (2nd healers) and I got the cape! This guide single handedly got me my infernal cape. Much love aaty, thank you for your amazing guide.

5th attempt and wave 26 I think is my best 😂

I spent a month in the inferno, and because of your videos, I got my first cape on zuk #5! Can't thank you enough for the awesome videos!

[@LaSTBlazin]

Im glad youre posting these inferno guides, i still see a lot of players finding the challenge daunting, and not wanting to put forth the effort resulting in buying the cape. Some players just have the "its too hard" mentality, but its truly a rewarding challenge to complete and can excell players to the "next level"

[@battboyz8462]

Got my first cape just now thanks to you man. Thank you so much the euphoria is out of this world!

[@MaTrIXBaws]

Been watching this series while I train my stats and I’m very happy I came up with a similar solution for the wave 61 at 1:18:12! I can tell all the content you’re putting out is helping me and I look forward to putting it to practice very soon :). Thanks for all the useful and practical advice aaty

[@NickLew5547]

Thanks to all of the fcf videos that i have seen twice each at least. I got my first cape today. Aaty thank you so much for the guides and info. never thought i could do and yet today i wear my cape proud learning the right way. BTW it took me 46 attempts and 2zuks to get it.

[@ferrariramsgobrrr]

thank you so much for this series! Just got my cape today under 30 total attempts and on my 2nd Zuk!

[@jeroenvanpoeijer4339]

I was always so overwhelmed and intimidated by the inferno, but these videos make it look easy and have given me the courage to start trying!

Thanks a lot for the videos. Finally got the cape after 4 tries, would never have gotten it without the use of all these tricks showcased.

[@darbs1832]

I'll watch inferno guides every now and then but your guides are easily the most comprehensive and easy to understand. I trick myself every time into thinking I could maybe do it one day...until I see 3 jads. No way in hell I'll be able to do that.

[@aatykon]

Jads become miles easier mentally when you take a look at the required apm. In total its 1 attack per 3 ticks, an action every 1.8 seconds for a total of of 33 apm. High apm games even at a casual level easily hit over 50apm, and so in terms of stress/concentration, yes it's hard and you can't afford to make those mistakes much, but it's also very easy with a little practice, and only looks hard right now. Don't be afraid to fail at stuff either! Failing can be a great teacher and a great source of motivation every time you chip away at a seemingly impossible task. Building the self confidence that you can improve and will improve as long as you dedicate time to trying and learning opens up many games at a higher and often more enjoyable level.

[@darbs1832]

@@aatykon My initial reluctance from attempting the inferno came from the notion that you HAVE to flick to be able to do it. I'm not the smartest when it comes to understanding the tick system in osrs admittedly. Knowing that it's doable without flicking is extremely reassuring -- I just wish there was a way to practice triple jads without having to spend 1.5 hours getting there.

[@aatykon]

@@darbs1832 duo jads is practicable from the tzharr throne dude guy person, and triples isnt much of a step up - and after all it is just practice, if you die at jads you get to practice and improve at the waves.

[@ixsantoxi2673]

​@darbs1832 I'm not far off starting my grind for the cape, but the duo jad challange with a scythe was pretty intense haha, took 5 goes but got it, then was told u could afk it with a hally.. but imo the scythe walk/flicking payers n then repositioning for healers while doin it felt like it was probably what I'm to expect with ranging tripples

[@littlefunnywithsomemoney]

Well made guides brother. Nice seeing guides like this to show people the Inferno IS doable if you put your mind to it. Just takes more work for some people.

trying to get your fist cape? just do this 2:44:08 its easy lol. these videos did help me get ready for my cape, thank you, dear lola, and mr.gnomemonkey. I didn't count my tries but I got the cape on my third zuk which wouldn't have happened without these videos.

I’ve seen wave 60 twice the last two days. This cape will be mine soon :)

[@JR113FTW]

I used your recent first cape videos to get my first cape. I learned on a 45 defense account and the these minor tips all combined do, in fact, work. Don't try to zurg this shit. Be a man, accept the unfamiliar challenge, and just get it done! Thanks a ton for the help, aatykon.

[@Dijits]

I got my first cape a few weeks ago with justi helm and and eldritch. I ended on 7hp with no supplies. I didn't milk specs very much, but it was 100% worth it to bring.

[@aatykon]

while in some specific cases the items may be not be negative to bring, it's not convincing to have a sample size of 1 cape and state confidence in the methods used, from seeing literally thousands of first cape runs i can definitively say eldritch does not benefit any first caper assuming they're using devout boots and suffering or rotg - and if they're not using those then put simply their gearing choice is misinformed or bad (or an ironman who somehow has eldritch)

[@laroete]

Amazing! I will rewatch this until i can get my cape :)

[@laroete]

People keep telling me autocast is too slow but honestly idk why, it looks just the same

[@patches_]

Virtus top probably better to use now compared to ancestral? You get the same mage str with ancients as ancestral and additional +2 prayer bonus.

[@bertroan6620]

wish you had your tiles in the info section otherwise greate video

[@arob210]

Ring if the Gods and Devout Boots are not first cape gear items. Ring of Suffering and Pegs make up roughly 12% extra range defense and 40% more magic defense. If you die before running out of restores, then it didn’t matter that you had prayer bonus gear. Only main critique of this series. Prayer bonus gear is for speed running.

[@aatykon]

the series also focuses on practical solve solutions and how to mitigate or control 99% of wave damage - thus also mitigating the use of heavy defence gear. granted, first capers will make more mistakes and could benefit from tank gear - but my approach to learning content is to do exactly that - learn. tanking or increasing tank stats vs npcs doesnt teach you how to solve the content or improve at it, it just slightly increases the likelyhood of surviving a 1v1 or 1v2 that gets rolled every wave. I understand the argument about "if you survive you'll learn more", but at the end of the day teaching players to use yellow potion and dps is an entirely sufficient and simple solution that works 99% of the time. More prayer bonus = more brews/less time milking specs or trying to conserve/faster time to cape. (assuming players are making an attempt to learn these practical solutions).

[@Seneschaal]

19:15 blob/ranger explanation 26:49 another wave with good blob/ranger examples

[@briefsolace]

:( the blob damage… he’s doing his best

[@briefsolace]

On the real- ty for the vids! I’ve been having so much fun getting into inferno and look forward to improving through speed run times in the future. Having a number of resources lined up for progression is incredibly helpful, and gives a reasonable feeling of progression in an intangible fight.

[@1kfrags]

just thought the one at 1:12:43 might be a little difficult for first capers, to off-tick things when on a timer, it is very intimidating. I would have went on the east side of pillar, prayed range and killed the melee to avoid too much complicating. It is all just personal preference, and i found not complicating stuff by too much off-ticking was comfortable. Off-ticking is necessary to learn at some point though, so it is good practice :)

[@tubax926]

That is true. It's indeed a better solve but as aaty said the earlier you try and learn offticks, the easier your future attempts will be, and the better you will get at the game. Don't just go at the inferno with a "one and done" mentality.

[@subtleknife1]

If I had this video when I was doing first cape it probably would have taken less than 10 attempts vs the 48 that it took in reality 😅

[@akamaster09]

you can bring holy wrench. it gives a good bonus.

[@aatykon]

Rotg has wrench effect - brining it is bad

[@liamohara8398]

Never thought inferno would be possible, but after a lucky torva pk and watching your guide I finally realised that it’s easy and I could do it no problem, 17 attempts in I’ve got to wave 18 🤣 I feel like I’m pray flicking the same as you but for some reason I take damage from the blobs/rangers any tips of why I might be messing up here and how to fix it? Thanks!

[@aatykon]

its just timing/practice! keep it up can always go to wave 4 (single blob) or single ranger wave and practice 1 tick alternating to get a really good grasp of the timing find a moment in one of the videos where i 1 tick for a long period and get a feel of it, and if in doubt record your own runs and clip the deaths to send to people to ask about how you died/what you can do better

[@omyslash0]

First cape attempter here. The trick to safe spot the melee dig using the mager/ranger as the pillar saved my life 3 times in my last run! I've seen Zuk once but had zero supplies. I've been planking on triple jad; I continually miss a prayer switch when the first set of healers spawn. Is it possible as a first caper to ignore the first set of healers on triple jad and just out DPS them w/ BP or Bowfa?

[@aatykon]

you can't ignore healers anywhere as a first caper, best bet is to just take it very slowly

[@Tanklesss]

Would you bring a crystal shield over elidinis ward(f)??

[@VladimirPutin-y6j]

This is one of the best guides... do oke with shit gear 🤣 green d hide etc

[@subarashiiaka2136]

Currently learning the inferno and these videos have been very helpful! One thing I'm having trouble with is alternating prayers. Sometimes it alternates just fine and then sometimes range/mage will seem to lag or stick for an extra tick and throw me off. Is this server lag or is my timing off?

[@aatykon]

Timing :p Servers are extremely good right now

[@pontushjortskog4606]

If I only have anc legs, but not anc top, is it worth bringing? or should I bring ahrim top instead of anc legs?

[@osamaasaad2281]

If i dont got max cape, should i be bringing avas and imbued cape? (Bowfa setup)

[@quanta2770]

Pls rate my solve for 47:10: Go to the north side of pillar, flicking Blob without killing it, until Meleer digs. This should pull the Mager in to the south edge of the pillar. When Meleer digs, Mage pray and go to center tile of west edge of pillar. Kill Mager whilst controlling Meleer, then kill Meleer. This just leaves Blob + Nibblers.

[@aatykon]

good solution, works fine! there's always a few methods that work well, and there's rarely a perfect answer for first capes. best solution would be to go north and pull the mager closer, and return to the west side before the melee digs, get control while attacking mager, skipping the need to let it dig at all!

[@Bamblagram]

As an Ironman I don’t have Devout boots but I have Pegasians.. I also have Holy Sandals though, is it worth to grind a bit for Devout or should I just send with Pegasians? Would be using Suffering.

[@aatykon]

devout > d'hide boots > pegs/sandals rotg > suffering the combo isnt the end-all, you can easily do the content with gear adjustments, just might mean you need to flick a bit more or play the supply conservation route a bit

will the new sceptre 10% overheal be any useful for first timers? or better stick to 15% damage staves

not necessary although not really bad? maybe just a waste of time/prayer to do so and thus bad, otherwise fine

[@zangchang3629]

If you two tick pray switch, would you get hit by the blob/mage blob/ranger?

[@MaTrIXBaws]

You can, but you need to make sure the attack by the non blob is the “start” of your 2t alternate. If you go from pillar to a blob/mage you pray mage on t1 and t2, range on t3 and t4. The mage and range are on 4t attack cycles. You can always “fix” it by holding mage or range until the tick they attack and then beginning a 4t cycle from there, tanking a blob hit at worst

[@taylorlee-u1m]

My current best setup (ironman) has only 11 prayer (in mage gear) and 14 with crystal body. Would you recommend range cape for +4 or just stick with assembler? also only have rune darts, are these good enough? thx mate appreciate the video

brute forcing with brews wont help you learn the content - granted feeling like you can use them more freely is nice but it's very unnecessary and extends the learning process greatly

[@Gmaneeeee]

@@aatykon you def can learn the process, you just have that comfortability where you can sip a brew if you're ever in doubt or to try new things out.. Depending on justicar is a whole diff story tho

[@aatykon]

@@Gmaneeeee you can do that without eldritch as well, some players might feel they need it to act as a mental safeguard against running out of supplies but the reality is thats just not required, and it is only a mental thing. 99% of learner deaths they die with supplies remaining - meaning at no point would they have benefitted from having more.
