I Spent 100 Hours in RuneScape F2P worlds..

A new completionist video is coming VERY soon... Here's a bonus 100 hour account build video :) Thank you to all the channel members! You get to see this one early too. Twitch ► www.twitch.tv/SaintShibaRS Discord ► discord.gg/ScQyk9GdBz Twitter/x ► x.com/SaintShibaRS

[@saberruntv]

i'm currently playing a f2p locked character. in which I must do everything availlable to f2p. that counts 99 smithing and the beginner clue log and event logs ( stale baguette as well)

[@SaintShiba]

@@saberruntv Good luck :D

[@MaelZack]

The issue is f2p is getting worse and worse as bonds getting pricier. They used to be 2million around now roughly 13 million.

[@SaintShiba]

Luckily the price of a bryophytas essence has gone up just as much. I think if I wanted to escape f2p I'd go with that. But yea the price of a bond is crazy nowadays. I used to pay my membership through GP buying bonds. But now I just pay for membership instead.

[@MaelZack]

@@SaintShiba partially id say thats because jagex inflated bond value for reason. Its beneficial for them to do this way. For example few bonds in rs3 can basically buy middle tier gear set for someone who buys membership via money. At the end of the day its jagex who profits it… Sure Bryophyta is optional Boss I guess for f2p to farm o become member again. In a way.

[@SekTY]

Can confirm, bryo essence pops easy 13 mil and you get exp while farming for the keys​@@SaintShiba

[@hollymoder]

when i first started playing runescape i only played f2p and said id start paying if i made myself my first bond in f2p, i held to this and made my first bond (6m at the time) after so many grueling hours of crafting jewlery + chopping yew trees to 75. had alot of fun, but boy do i encourage people to do that, its such a crazy difference

[@itchigo3245]

@@hollymoder definitely sets you up mentally for all the crazy grinds that you’re signing up for by playing this game. Also F2P is a lot less content so it’s not quite as overwhelming to new players

[@SaintShiba]

Its also sooo much easier to maintain a bond in members too. Big respect for grinding out a f2p bond lol

[@jonazz900]

@@hollymoder Today is not really recommend to start an account from f2p to earn a bond. Unlike 2018(mobile version just release) the time I re started playing this game. Bond is 2.5m-3m at that time. And there is a lot of money making option on that time like death rune re selling on ge. Collecting zammy wine is also good because it is 3x-4x higher compared the price now, same as tele grabbing nature rune on the wildy etc. The price of bond become higher and the f2p money making option now become limited

[@saberruntv]

woah but. that means you are a baby :D welcome to the game.

I love your 100 hours series, always gives me the itch to make a similar account

[@SaintShiba]

Many more to come, I just wish I could get them out quicker lol

[@nodus1735]

You forgot to mention that the Gold Decorative Boots are BiS in F2P. They only take 40+ hours to get!

[@nodus1735]

~~Also if you manage to break them there is no way to repair them as F2P~~ (this is not true)

[@SaintShiba]

Oh wow I knew about them being BIS. Did forget to mention them but I had no idea perdu didn't exist in f2p lol. Can you repair them on the armour stand in a f2p pvp world (561)?

[@nodus1735]

[@trungy9882]

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode and watched the entire thing! Thanks for the nostalgia brother! ❤

[@SaintShiba]

Thanks mate :)

[@chilwil07]

Back when they finally enabled the g.e I decided to try getting back in but I wanted the mage lvl to charge air orbs and with a fresh g.e steel bar super heating was something like 300-400k an hr profit up until maybe 24hrs post g.e so I got to 80 mage before subbing cool to see it's still viable

[@SaintShiba]

That is crazy money for superheating too. I looked up current prices and unfortunately its around break even at the moment now but higher level bars are still profit. As a member I sometimes forget superheating is even a thing because if I wanted to smelt bars I'd be at blast furnace. Thats why I like playing these unique account builds because it builds my game knowledge up a bit.

[@Eluf-s8k]

First time watching your content, good stuff! What do you think you enjoyed most about this specific account? Any specific grind? Thanks

[@SaintShiba]

Figuring out how to rush 55 magic for high alch. Felt like a noob all over again. Also got quite a lot of nostalgia doing low level stuff in general in the f2p areas like hill giants. Ripping off elvargs head is always a good feeling too :)

[@MarkVMark5]

Love the tyler the creator and brockhampton RS music in the background

[@SaintShiba]

Finally someone recognised the tracks lol. Lots of people love the arcanists music but this is the first comment about the other tracks :)

[@turglow01]

My man busted out the funorb music

[@dragonlorddrogoth8123]

I remember funorb, used to play the hell out of arcanists

[@josuegarcia5236]

This was cool. Would you do this for rs3 also?

[@SaintShiba]

Yea for sure. I'm still deciding if I want to do RS3 as an ironman or not. Either way I want to play it completely blind and see how fun it could be. I'm also going to be doing RSC.

[@MeneerHarks]

i got maybe a nice idea. Go from F2P (maybe with own restrictions of Ironman) to Memberships without paying with real money. Then set a goal members goals like quest cape or fire cape? And constantly pay your membership with coins btw i love these vids aswell, they are so entertaining!

[@SaintShiba]

Yea I would like to make a video on maintaining a bond in the future for sure. Thanks for the ideas :)

[@mohbw3]

Furnace at Draynor is now also for F2P, so little faster with crafting.

[@SaintShiba]

Draynor? Did you mean edge ville? I went there afterwards

[@mohbw3]

@@SaintShiba Lol i meant edgeville indeed

[@dearestbrotherchroma]

i think some other fun side accounts would be area locked! they're very niche and explore cool unseen content, Tirannwn and Varlamore both have some pretty cool progressions and grinds (SOTE/Gauntlet & Perilous Moons/Colosseum), and of course Zeah, Karamja, Morytania, Wilderness, Fremmenik, etc. I know all of these have kind of been done before but I figure they're fun side grinds while doing completionist on the main, and would be super entertaining

[@SaintShiba]

I do have area locked written down and I do like both of those areas. The only problem is that I have to set some goals for 100 hours of progress and hopefully some kind of milestone goal. So I've been struggling to choose where I'd go 🤔

[@irishkelly2062]

Let it be known, ive been buying mithril pickaxes for 1k ea from players on w353 for about 6 months now. Safe to say, high alching them is no longer profitable, let alone low alch. I am currently at 4.5m mithril picks.

[@SaintShiba]

@@irishkelly2062 good job

[@nicholasmari7574]

fun watch

[@StoufSto]

I don't get people who say they play efficient but don't bury bones while doing slayer or combat. You can attack alc and bury within one action anyways, why not do it like the game intended and bury as you go? Even picking up the bones can be done with 0 loss of time.

[@SaintShiba]

Usually in member worlds I'll run a bonecrusher or ash sanctifier anyways. But yea in F2P I'll usually bury.

[@CibaTron]

Maging body golems is good magic and runecrafting exp

[@Rubyhunter1]

wooooo

[@MatthewWoodall-cr3or]

When you said forestry was useless I lowkey lost respect for you cause that is one the best f2p money makers and it's arguably the most afk method possible. If you gather 10k anima bark you can buy a felling axe handle and sell it on the ge for 2.5m-3m gp each. If you use multiple free to play alts you can gather them much quicker by only keeping one character per world, so you can use world 301, 398, and 434 which would give you 3 separate chances to get forestry events. I've gathered 7 handles on my 2 alts while training my main making nearly 20m gp passively.

[@SaintShiba]

I had no idea the handles were f2p as the axes are members only as well as every other forestry item lol. Oh well, learned something new today.

[@SaintShiba]

[@Diabeetus_]

[@airplane312]

I think this account should return and get 10m to 100m, but I believe 100m gp should be a goal to get then used some for 2 to 3 bonds to build up the account. Or show 1m to 5m profit on high alchemy. Like high alchemy minus nature rune equal profit. Yes fire runes should be included take out, but cost of fire staff at let's say 1,500 gp after 1.5k casts you already return cost of it.

[@SaintShiba]

Yea theres lots of ways to carry on this account. I'd like to max on it if I did continue and go for all the log slots etc too. Will be playing all the other account builds first and see which one people liked the most :)

[@Morality]

really cool tips ive never known thanks for sharing

[@Presearing]

I love the concept of the 100 hour series (especially since some of the frames shown in the intro look like something I'd be really interested in too!) so I can't wait to experience all these accounts vicariously through you :)

[@SaintShiba]

I just wish I could make them faster but unfortunately doing alot of raids on the other account at the moment. So can't really multilog lol. Will be giving it a good try though :)

Yea you don't have access to quite a lot of skills. Some people like the simple playstyle though and I had a good time with it. F2P also doesn't get many updates that changes the main game skilling metas and I know a big portion of the f2p community likes that aspect too. It's the closest thing to an official OG runescape we have I think.

[@killerbas40]

@@tommylucatiel7911 its one of the best systems in gaming, just compare it to a game you have to buy up front, or immediately pay subscription like wow without even being able to try. Many other free to play games have a system where buying microtransactions is needed to get the full experience, personally i don't feel this critiscism is justified. You can even play for free permanently if you want once you got your account going. But hey just try it out, i have played f2p for ages when i was young and enjoyed the hell out of it, if you like the f2p experience you can always just try it out 1 month and if you don't like members, not renew your subscription

@@tommylucatiel7911 I mean if you’ve watched the content you know what’s available and if you play f2p you can get an understanding of the mechanics to see if it’s for you. None of RuneScape’s competitor games are free and most don’t have a way to try it for free outside of certain special events.
