Tips & Tricks #2 [Runescape 3] More Quality of Life Tips

[@MrTobywoods]

The not needing to click the portable! Never knew that! So good

[@FoxxTickles]

This video series for me is like finding out you can chew your food instead of just throwing your head back hoping it goes down. Why the heck didn't I known any of this??

[@MaikeruRS]

I love the comparison lmao

[@claireebearr]

Omg the collect and repeat for the G.E.! Such a time saver

[@MaikeruRS]

Good! Enjoy the qol :P

[@claireebearr]

Maikeru RS Haha thnx!! Love your vids 😊

[@leoni7649]

Here I am after 10 months of the video release... Omg I can't believe I didn't know the GE tips

[@Coastalsuperjew]

I’m a maxed main with over 1.2b xp and have an IM that’s 2k+ total. Like 80% of these tips were new to me and boy are they useful! Keep them coming my man (:

[@MaikeruRS]

That's amazing to hear! Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad the tips were useful

[@p2powers520]

Wow.. I did over 1000 QBD kills running from the port sarim lodestone..

[@MaikeruRS]

Yeah, they updated the amulet at some point to have unlimited charges but didn't really post much about it except a tiny bit in a patch note! So useful lmao

[@generalharness8266]

ME 2!!!!!

[@p2powers520]

@@generalharness8266 RIP

[@2kbluedragon]

yea i did to lol

[@CrossedChaos]

Prior to the amulet update to add unlimited teleports you can also use dragon trinkets from the oddments shop. It takes 5 dragon trinkets and under the black dragons section you can teleport to QBD.

[@Danny_Deleto]

The sigil one blew my mind. Still recovering from how good it felt.

[@x_arnie]

hahaa my thoughts exactly, same for the pocket slot.

[@MaikeruRS]

Yeah, I didn't realise the pocket slot was the same, looks like thats another for episode 3 :P

[@CrossedChaos]

Here's a tip for anyone that does not know. Under gameplay settings, in the inventory section at the bottom, there is a section for automatically destroying vials and containers. For example you can automatically destroy vials when drinking the final dose of a potion, mixing potions, decanting potions, etc. You can also do the same for farming and eating. It just saves the time of having to click and drop empty vials every time when training herblore or killing mobs.

[@KingYahKam]

The (Hide Familiar) option is now in *Combat & Action Bar* click “Attack Options” and scroll down.

[@abinamikaze]

Im comped on the way to trim and I barely knew half these things... you've got a new subscriber as you seem to be an absolute guru!

[@MaikeruRS]

Haha thanks! Always happy to help man and good luck with trim

[@Themrfaceboy]

spirit gem alternative, equip the spirit gem then unequip it. Then left click use on another spirit gem of the same type. As long as they both are activated (a) they will instantly combine.

[@oscarolivet896]

I've been playing for years and I have no idea I could do most of the things you showed in this guide. Great video! Thank you

[@MaikeruRS]

👍 Anytime

[@2kbluedragon]

i love when you do these types of videos

[@MaikeruRS]

Happyu to hear that, enjoy!

[@jamesburns4574]

FKN HEATED TEA FLASK R U KIDDING here I am with 1k cups of tea in bank

[@theactualtrokz]

IKR! WTF!

[@MaikeruRS]

lmao! Yeah they came out with master clues :)

[@legome007]

Story of my life right here...

[@25Dzone]

Oh wow, some of these tips are so blindingly obvious and I still had no idea. And dude, I'd love to see a video where you go through the Settings tab and all the options the game has. For returning players like myself, it's quite a daunting tab because there are so many options and it would be nice if there was an informative video just showing or explaining what each option does (with time stamps etc.) Love your vids!!

[@zoeskurtsy]

Not just returning players.. there is so much that even everyday players dont know what half of it is.

[@MegaChickenfish]

Oh my god that GE feature. I usually buy the same things repeatedly so that is HUGE. Maxed 2841 total 15 year vet, had no idea.

[@I360FXI]

I've been waiting for this ever since way back in episode 1

[@MaikeruRS]

It's only been a week since i uploaded ep 1! Not too long ago :P Hope you enjoy haha!

[@deus_ex_machina_]

@@MaikeruRS But this series is so mind-blowing it felt like an eternity!

[@chasindenim1988]

Great tips! Just a small note, as a somewhat beginner player you scared me off a little by starting out with "QBD" while having no clue what it ment and I was close to stop watching because I thought it was too advanced for me. If you would have started with a more general tip like the GE once that would have been a better build up for the video for less advanced players like me.

[@Skuldaren]

MIND BLOWN! Also the area loot thingy form last vid, OML

[@MaikeruRS]

❤️ Always happy to spread the info!

[@samthompson4996]

Hide familiar options was a good one. These videos are really good.

[@bjfbnbnsu]

For the GE you dont have to click on the item at all. From the main GE if you right click the buy or sell on the item you can chose cancel and right click again to collect and repeat. Saves even more time then clicking it to open the offer, hitting the red X, then the Return arrow to adjust the price. The sigil one was awesome and good to know, does this work with the shield as well? never thought to try it might have to mess around with this now lol. Great vid.

[@MZZenyl]

Had no idea that portables' effects are AoE! Great video, loving this series. :D

[@MaikeruRS]

Glad you're enjoying and gl with the gains and new info :p

[@Xenn000]

How did I not know about collect and repeat? That is so nice! x.x

[@aquarhythm2999]

Yay thanks I did learn something new this time! I never noticed that Collect & Repeat option, it'll really help with failed buy offers

[@MaikeruRS]

Yeah it's lovely if you use the ge a lot!

[@clarktarkten]

I've never clicked skybox/filters. As someone who can't see very well I appreciate this, hahaha.

[@theclawedraven]

The alching option blew my mind. Keep it up! Loving these tips!

[@MaikeruRS]

❤️

[@keithchen89]

If you are using non-normal (lunar/ancient) spellbook but still carry the explorer ring in your inventory, it allows you to high alch if you drag the item to the coins button (as what you have shown in the video). Not as useful now as spring cleaner alchs for you now, but at specific tasks such as muspahs, alching dragon maces is pretty handy.

[@KarRuptAssassin]

Also, instead of having to decant potions into flasks, theres a dwarf near the bank in Oo'glog that will decant potions into flasks, flasks into flasks, and flasks into vials, all noted. It saves so much time.

[@Rsn.Slippinfoot]

Holy moly! The sigil one is amazing! I've been getting super annoyed having to put my different sigils back on my bar. Is it the same for the scrim slot? The alch I didn't know so that was neat. Thanks so much friend! Keep up the great work!

[@halowars400762]

8:40 - about the alching it might be a good thing to note that this also works with other methods of high alching e.g if you don't have alch runes but you have lumbridge tasks ring 4 in your inventory, you will still be able to high alch using this method (meaning you can skip it's entire interface using it normally, good for in combat etc), same thing applies to legendary pet high alch ability as well. it works with those 2 examples so if there's other ways to high alch (using something on your player) i'd assume those'd work as well. edit: not entirely sure about priority it will use them in though.

[@leahdorable7656]

YaY! I use my explorer ring a lot. Thanks for tip!👍♥️🏳️‍🌈

[@MaikeruRS]

Neat addition :D

[@MegaChickenfish]

Oh my god the portables thing. I remember people *freaking out* because it was inefficiently one square away and they were LOSING THEIR GAINS OH THE HUMANITY and no one on the portables world knew that, including me. Wow.

[@runescapecreatorduh]

that last sigil one, if applicable to your other slots like weapons, is a game changer for shield swapping.

[@MaikeruRS]

sadly i think the only other slot it works for is pocket slot

[@Four4Reddit]

that GE tip and the hide pet option were both godlike tips for me

[@MaikeruRS]

[@maroque5521]

I'm watching the whole series now... these videos are so helpful but also so painful to watch... I want to bang my head on my keyboard for all the time I've wasted not knowing some of these things

[@miklosaron]

Remora's necklace... i found that out a week ago trying to get rid of some items, very useful, gonna use it tommorrow as i got a qbd reaper :P the ge tricks and portables trick are really useful thanks for them and thanks for this awesome video :) tbh honest i never felt that spirit gems trashing my invertory, i rarely got more than 1 and i never ever destroy them :)

[@x_arnie]

This was more helpful than you know!! I can't believe I didn't know some of these after 7500 hours in this game :'D

[@MaikeruRS]

Woo! Awesome to hear

[@secret_knowledge_]

for spirit gems you can also go to the settings of your charming imp. there you can select which gems you want your imp to destroy. he will also give you exp for it

[@KarRuptAssassin]

You can bind your familiar button to your task bar so that you dont have to keep clicking take bob when doing something like herblore or whatever. Its SUPER useful.

[@MaikeruRS]

True :D thanks

[@KarRuptAssassin]

[@dickmasterson8024]

Thank you for the wiki note man I forget simple tips and remember only the tough ones.

[@MaikeruRS]

The wiki integration is lovely, you're welcome!

[@TheOmegametroi0]

The only thing I knew was the alching. Everything was new to me. Thank you very much for making this

[@wafteers7080]

According to the Wiki you can trade skilling outfit pieces for other pieces of the same set (shark for shark, golem for golem, etc). Can you confirm if this is true? If so, I think it'd be great for the next rips and tricks video? Keep up the great work!

[@The_Galaxyshark]

That portables trick has honestly just blown my mind

[@MaikeruRS]

🙏 So nice man. Especially with all the trolls in ca w84

[@matmat7940]

as cool as range of the portable is, having it right next to a bank speeds up the proces of anything that involves "make window", since you dont have to wait for bank window to close. Inventory window is locked and action bar works only if you click with mouse but with portable you can press preset button and cilck portable right after without losing any game ticks. Also side note: you can actualy press space to confirm any "make window" and you can actualy pre-prees it to instantly confirm any "make-window".

[@Luden0906]

Thanks maikeru you the best! I have been maxed a while with 200Ms and I have benefitted from at least 3 tips :-) Shows how much I have yet to learn abt the game

[@MaikeruRS]

That's why i love runescape so much, always stuff to learn! :D

[@skate3333333]

A nice tip for your player owned farm, instead of running to your pen and back to harvest and collect animals one by one, you can just click on the animal itself (instead of on the gate) and harvest and collect it while standing at the bank.

[@zoeskurtsy]

The sigil trick helped a great deal

[@lukewest2654]

'm just loving these vids... like I said last time keep doing these mate :) omg its so much easier to see now in sop dungeon…

[@Ginger2Rocker]

the hitsplat tip is pretty neat

the skybox helps alot in dark areas.. thanks!

[@MaikeruRS]

For sure!

[@ashutoshtripathi7469]

The only problem with the dragging to invention icon thing is that in combat you need to time it after you attack or it wont happen. Alch can cancel animations, disassesmble cannot.

[@Tewest74]

Keep'em coming! Thanks for the info

[@MaikeruRS]

Always!

[@chrisjferro7808]

Legendary shoutouts bud thank you for this

[@אמיימיכאלוב]

do u get all the benefits of the portables within the radius? like to conserve matirials or getting more stuff besides the bonus exp? keep doing this kind of videos they are super helpful!

[@MaikeruRS]

Yup! :) As long as you're getting the additional xp, you'll be getting everything else too

[@MrVeemonMaster]

The portable well trick, you forgot to mention that you used the well beforehand to get the affect, then you moved south to display he doesn't give the xp. Note : everytime any portable moves to a different tile, you must click on the well once, then your fine 1 tile in any direction from it.

[@MaikeruRS]

I'm pretty sure they changed that. I tested running away then running back without interacting at all with the well and got 10%

[@JuanRamunni]

PLEASE, do an ironman tips and tricks video on this, at least 1 episode dedicated entirely to ironmen. Ik you would do an awesome work!

[@OrangeStrepsils]

I need more! Quality of life will rocket up 😁

Once I get enough good tips for episode 3 you'll get more asap :D glad you're enjoying!

[@mikeworkman1252]

Great quality video!

[@Salmaan99]

5:40 Hmmm, I think hiding familiar options is a tip that a HCIM in a QBD killing challenge could've benefited from :P

[@kaijobin1214]

In addition to the heated tea flask clearing aggression, you can also right click and drink it while it's in your bank

[@iospleasrs3930]

Omg im maxed when doing Slayer most of the times i use agro pots and somtimes waited for like minutes lmao Didnt even know About the whole thee thing Ty a lot

you should do an Ironman / HCIM QOL tips too!!!!

dragging equipment slots to the actionbar, seriously?! 10/10

[@theoffshorevlog]

@maikeru, can you make a max hit video? I have a nearly max magic setup, and can’t hit over 8k. I use sunshine, ovls, auras, whatever you can think of and still can’t manage to hit not even a 10k. One of my clannies hits 12ks regularly and he has anima core?! I’m very confused, I’m max combat as well. Can you please give us a video on how you hit 10-12ks? Also I don’t have grimoire.

[@Rayterrf]

@Maikeru, it's there a way to still hide familiar interface? Im playing right now and just can't find it ;(

great tips mate. thanks for the vid.

[@MaikeruRS]

[@Mr_GoGs_Official]

please, do some videos of tips & tricks specifically for ironmen. things like important must-do tasks & quests and other various things a normal player would overlook or ignore but which are important & helpful to ironmen. such as, where to get certain items important to an ironman (nature talisman for example). other various things like what monsters drop helpful supplies & items for an Ironman. as well as various mechanics that can be very helpful to ironmen which are either overlooked, ignored or just forgotten about by normal players such as the fact you can use the produce (potatoes, herbs, marigold etc...) you farm from allotments on the leprechaun and he instantly notes them free of charge... ive played since 2008 and never knew this until 3 days ago... before that on my ironman i was using baskets & sacks to hold all my produce i grew. other kinds of tips im after are the hidden things like buying the 40 noted pineapples & seaweed from the guy in catherby daily.

Did you get your bandos boots in the end? 😂

[@verloser]

and on legacy interface accidently clicking on your pet does the same saving you the hide familar option unless your on your own style then yea its got its perks

Dude you’re a legend...

[@MaikeruRS]

No, you're a legend

[@jonahworley6879]

Why am I just now finding out about the qbd tele when I’m at 1.4k kc and just maxed?😐

[@MaikeruRS]

It was made unlimited teleport like 3-4 months ago

[@mahmoudqamhiyeh5857]

So if you burn logs on a fire or cook on a fire you will get the effects of the portables when you are near them?

[@MaikeruRS]

Sadly I don't think it applies to fires. Typically just the ones you can do from your Inv with no other interactions. So. Just crafter, fletcher, well.

[@chiponbloc]

Maikeru, Can u make the next tips and tricks guide more toward for skilling for max xp for random skills? For example, 1 tick hunter thats out right now.. that would be a tip.. then something else like that to gain more xp per hour. A lot of the tips are good ur giving, but they only really relate to combat.

[@MaikeruRS]

I give a fair few tips that aren't just combat related, gave more non combat ones in the first ep though than here

[@BFMV_rs]

Thank you so much man

[@leahdorable7656]

I am not getting any "you mix such a potent potion that you fill an extra vial, thanks to this incredible mixing station'. In regards to the portables, I have been trying it out on the suggested World, I can not tell with all the pulse core exp if I am getting herblore bonus for being close to the well either. Is this a mistake or an oversight?

[@MaikeruRS]

You should still proc additional potions. Run away and check your xp with 1 pot, run back to the well and check it there, then check at the bank. You definitely get the extra xp and makes if you're close enough to the portable

[@Burnsbv]

the amount of shit i learned from this video is just down right embarrassing lmao thank you maikeru

[@MaikeruRS]

That's what i like to hear xD Anytime!

[@ShinobiVIPER]

Just bought a spirit gem bag, thanks 🤣

[@drawdots517]

Instead of alch runes, I bring explorer ring 4 or radiant alchemist amulet for slayer. Gives free daily high alchemy

[@JhormanGMore]

How do you make the icons like prayers, chat boxes, backpack, etc etc smaller? Like in your video

[@MaikeruRS]

I think what you're referring to is slim headers

[@1dozmos]

Hi guys, DOMZ33 here, can you make a dagganoth king guide please Maikaru? Any PvM guides with Mage setup please. I’m not confident to kill high bosses past araxxor really.

[@denieduser8655]

do a wilderness only ironman series, tho it'd probably be difficult/impossible to stream it

[@MaikeruRS]

I wouldn't have time to do it alongside everything else I can stream a lot of series, which makes doing them much easier. Having to do this in purely time off stream would cut into other videos etc tons

[@maxs28]

Not been able to click on yak now at arraxi finally. Cheers

[@MaikeruRS]

awesome, yw

[@afrog2666]

I wish GE had a "live increase" function instead of that repeating thing, that is, being able to increase the offer on the go as it is still active. Not buying? Ok, increase 5%, and repeat until it buys, or similarly, reduce price on items for sale.

[@afrog2666]

Btw, thanks for the "hide familiar options" tip, the interaction with my bob has actually gotten me killed one time, and they tend to run in front of you and not behind, like they`re trying to trip you or something which is super annoying..

[@weckar]

I really wish you would organize these a bit...
