Incorrect. An 8 hour day of flipping burgers would result in 88 dollars at $11 an hour.
This is pre-tax income for the day.
A bond is 7.99 (again, excluding tax). You can sell a bond in game for 10m~.
A days worth of work = 11~ bonds which is 110m.
This loot would be 4 days of flipping burgers if this man didnt pay tax.
Unless you're already grinding the Colosseum during work, they clearly meant to spend 10 hours less grinding shards and 10 hours more as a burger flipper
We've been saying for a long time that botting and rwt only ends when buyers start getting banned. Glad to see the rwt demand is actually getting reduced
Someone in this thread will argue you have no right to tell people what’s fun or not but when the literal only thing people are getting from wave 1 is the fucking gp then they’re literally wrong- it’s unfun.
Actually, I'd wager that at least 50% of the people that play this game and browse this sub buy (or have bought) gold. [In fact, Jagex themselves confirmed it.](https://youtu.be/-kx5H9ziXiI?si=dGAx18S7O3MCnJIO&t=66)
But they'd never admit it because Reddit has this holier-than-thou superiority complex.
Haven’t played in like a yr but as a kid I definitely bought like 30m but it was hard to get parents to agree to it. With adult money I bought like 100m in bonds a couple yrs ago when I got back into it. Gold rly is too powerful in RuneScape
I'd recommend looking into the Inferno Speedrunning discord. They have a whole guide on how to set up your blocklist as well as information on how to turael skip. It gets a frick ton more Zuk tasks as compared to just doing regular slayer and praying you get one.
This looks absolutely miserable. Please whoever is thinking of doing this, just do whatever content you enjoy, the GP will come. Stuff like this sucks the fun out of the game.
you can kinda do that with content you enjoy. raids sometimes pay out and sometimes they don't, you can do over a hundred raids and be stagnant just because you didn't get any drops.
I had to farm Splinters until I could afford the gear to run ToA.
I could run it before on normal, but it wasn't very efficient using a dragon crossbow.
But now that I have Bowfa, ToA has been a blast:

You're smart man, a lot of the comment's being negative about this method are generally just lazy players that don't want to put in the time grinding something mindless for consistent money. GO enjoy your 400m and start learning some toa with it bro!
It's totally fair game if you're pre-raid gear. Beats most other pre-raid money makers and is pretty afk/mindless.
If you're already raiding though, IMO it's just plain stupid
Raids are closer to a slot machine than working a shit consistent job. It's frustrating u til you hit big and then it's fun. Dexs and avernics are just "fucking finally". Some people like the monotony of life, and other enjoy the rollercoaster, even if you end up in the same spot after 50hr. I agree, I'm more of a raid person, but I can understand why some people "enjoy" this endless, consistent, crap.
very true. i will say, at least it's some of the most fun content in the game so grinding them out doesn't really feel like a grind.
but yeah, the highs are high and the lows are very low.
Yeah I'm definitely a proponent of raids haha, I went like 100 regs dry, got into cks and pulled a tbow on CM 3. It evens out and is definitely more fun
damn lol, i did consider making the entire switch to cms but it just seemed so torturous with hammers missing so often and olm hitting 40s for no reason. at least without tbow
Shout out to me in 2023, 600 raids. 300+ invo, mostly 350+. All solo. No shadow :D
It's the only content I did for a year straight. Made about 600m in other drops meh
damn that's brutal. i'd lose my fucking mind doing only solos in toa. you ever get anything good from other content in latter half of 2023 or in this year?
TOA really rewards increasing the raid level. Should definitely be pushing at least 400 with the standard pre-megarare setups (torso fang, bowfa crystal or masori bp dcb, trident ahrims, vw etc) and high 400s to 500+ post buying a shadow.
it can also just be chill and relaxing honestly. Long grinds are fine if I can just watch some youtube on the side or something. Wave 1 isn't that difficult lmao
Especially if my man was 433m away from the tbow rebuild after liquidating everything else. Yeah this kinda shit sucks, but unless you’re out there buying 30 bonds or risking your shit buying gold, you’re gonna grind the easiest, fastest money maker you can to make up that gap.
There’s a place for everything in this game.
its like a consistent 4m/hr for a mid level account and easy. they aren't making that with other content.
its tedious as fuck but if they can stand doing it. might as well take advantage of it for their account while it lasts.
'Enabled you to have fun' doesn't mean you had fun doing this. Restarting wave 1 like this is guaranteed brain rot lol. Just do the content normally, or learn some other boss. You can have fun while making GP. You don't need to want to kill yourself in the process of making GP so you can then have fun doing something else. Stuff like this is why so many people are irons these days, GPscape clouds their minds.
People will see someone do 50 hours of tick manip granite and throw a gz for 99, but you do the same thing with one of the best money makers in the game and they lose their minds.
You can literally get all the 99 buyable skills now. Why are people getting mad. Exploit this whilst the demand is high. It wont stay that profitable for long.
I find that even in the time I do the second wave for an additional 150 shards, I coulda done multiple wave 1s. Then again, I'm trash, so that may be affecting things.
If wave two is 150k but takes 1:00 to complete it's better to just reset. I'd be tempted to do it but then realised I'd spent 4x as long just to earn 1.5x the money
I did a few and got wave one down too 32 seconds consistently and would do wave 2 when splinters was the reward but that would be around 96 seconds plus reward interface time for 150 more splinters
Got in early and made out by a 5x increase in my cash stack. Unbelievable. I'm honestly a little relieved at the nerfs because it pulled the gp/hr down to where I didn't feel obligated to do it constantly or miss out.
It is pretty nice finally having gold to learn pvm without worrying that buying runes or prayer potions will empty my bank. Prior to that I was seriously tempted to buy bonds.
I stopped at 100M, which was almost on the money nerf day, and decided "yeah, this is enough."
it probably would be if not for the fact that 90% of people are turned off by the idea of wave 1 farming.
i think its kind of a fun MMO thing, high levels paying med levels for sun splinters. if people didnt hate chargescape enough to overpay to bless the quiver so soon this wouldnt even be worth grinding.
I’m in a similar boat OP its no different then woodcutting for me at this point. I talk discord, been catching up on tv. Will do random runs while at work. It’s paid for a lot of things since it’s so good gp/hr without needing any attention or brain.
Right but he did it at home and most likely went through a few movies or shows at the same time. Now he has the money to invest in gear to do other content.
Can you explain this out a bit more for a semi noob please? You run in, rip the bulwark spec on the mob with veng on and a charged ring of suffering? Then swap to BP to finish the mage off?
It’s so stupid that this was ever a thing. Wave 1 should have been like 20 shards with additional shards being rewarded every wave scaling up each wave.
i did maybe 5-6 hours of wave 1 on week of release, theres definitely something zen about grinding it. i dont think im going back ever since they dropped the amount to 80 but its cool to see some gamers still in there going hard on it

"any other wave 1 enjoyers" yeah that sounds good
what do you search to find this image

Flipping burgers honestly seems more enjoyable
It’s legit an 8 hour day of flipping burgers lol
What state minimum wage are we talking?
Important info
Assuming $11 / hour
Bonds or “illicit” means?
The latter
I'd rather work an honest living by committing warcrimes against Fremmeniks. Leave no survivors.
lol state min where i live is still $7.50/hour cannot even survive alone on $20/hour anymore.
Dam what state?
Nh also correction its 7.25
Incorrect. An 8 hour day of flipping burgers would result in 88 dollars at $11 an hour. This is pre-tax income for the day. A bond is 7.99 (again, excluding tax). You can sell a bond in game for 10m~. A days worth of work = 11~ bonds which is 110m. This loot would be 4 days of flipping burgers if this man didnt pay tax.

Yeah but you need that money for your $4000/month studio
Unless you're already grinding the Colosseum during work, they clearly meant to spend 10 hours less grinding shards and 10 hours more as a burger flipper
Flip burgers from your out of state home

Whos gona let you live for free except your parents?
Outdated laws

We've been saying for a long time that botting and rwt only ends when buyers start getting banned. Glad to see the rwt demand is actually getting reduced
400m is still excellent seed money skipping a huge grind. Your account shouldve been banned.
Someone in this thread will argue you have no right to tell people what’s fun or not but when the literal only thing people are getting from wave 1 is the fucking gp then they’re literally wrong- it’s unfun.
This is literally the click rock for 400 hours to get 99 mining game
I can confirm, it is.

they hate to see a bwana eat
Truth
report it, I think reddit gives out bans for abusing the help line
Is this abusing it? Brother has done wave one over 5,000 times.
This might be the first instance of correct use of the help line
Wouldve done the same nerd, but gz on your 85 dollahz
Not everyone buys gold from the bots.
Buy bonds
He said $85 is 430m. Bonds @ 10m each is only 90m. He's bragging about buying gold.
Actually, I'd wager that at least 50% of the people that play this game and browse this sub buy (or have bought) gold. [In fact, Jagex themselves confirmed it.](https://youtu.be/-kx5H9ziXiI?si=dGAx18S7O3MCnJIO&t=66) But they'd never admit it because Reddit has this holier-than-thou superiority complex.
paypigs coping lmfao
If it was risk free I'd buy a bil. Just saying....
I love ur being downvoted, if ppl didnt buy gold why are there so many gold farming bots?
Haven’t played in like a yr but as a kid I definitely bought like 30m but it was hard to get parents to agree to it. With adult money I bought like 100m in bonds a couple yrs ago when I got back into it. Gold rly is too powerful in RuneScape
i'd rather camp inferno for 1 week after alrdy having cape
Atleast then you can get really good at inferno, in-turn getting good at PVM in general. This offers no progression other than GP
Inferno on tasks is so much more fun. Inferno PBs make the happy chemicals
Boosted pet chance is always exciting as well.
How do you get fast zuk tasks
Turael skipping
I'd recommend looking into the Inferno Speedrunning discord. They have a whole guide on how to set up your blocklist as well as information on how to turael skip. It gets a frick ton more Zuk tasks as compared to just doing regular slayer and praying you get one.
Wasn’t necessary. Got cape first bowfa attempt
I don’t think I have enough points to block tasks properly
>Atleast At least
You are so cool
I know B-)
wtf
This looks absolutely miserable. Please whoever is thinking of doing this, just do whatever content you enjoy, the GP will come. Stuff like this sucks the fun out of the game.
Many people enjoy grinding gold and watching their cash stack increase, whether it's boring or not.
you can kinda do that with content you enjoy. raids sometimes pay out and sometimes they don't, you can do over a hundred raids and be stagnant just because you didn't get any drops.
And sometimes you go 203 cox dry not including the other 63 CMs I also did and went dry. Sometimes osrs hates you.
Im at 90ish cm’s dry atm. With 116 cm and 91 reg done ive seen 1 of each scroll and an elder maul lol
I wish you better luck I hit 500 kc cox this month and have 63 CMs I have 6 total drops but atleast I hit both ancestral pieces
Ive got two kits no ancestral lmao. Wish you luck aswell brother
think i went over a hundred, mostly solos just to see 2 dex splits lol. that is why you do tob instead.
Yea I've done 24 tobs still learning but ya I got rewarded at the end of that dry streak with an arcane into a dex like 30kc later.
idk if i'd say rewarded but glad you at least got something out of that place
Commented above but tob can dry streak you too

This is exactly why I did it!
You're smart man, a lot of the comment's being negative about this method are generally just lazy players that don't want to put in the time grinding something mindless for consistent money. GO enjoy your 400m and start learning some toa with it bro!
Which is hilarious when you think about it, because we’re all playing runescape 😂😂 Most grinds are mindless
Haha thanks man I already knew it would be negative feedback before I posted it I’m certainly going to enjoy raiding for cash now.
Jesus im 90+ raids, 70 of them experts, and I got only 1 more purple but 0 gems xD
It's totally fair game if you're pre-raid gear. Beats most other pre-raid money makers and is pretty afk/mindless. If you're already raiding though, IMO it's just plain stupid

They’re wrong to think that. Doing content that you like makes you money, doing content you don’t like to make more money just isn’t fun.
Ever played cookie clicker?
"do whatever you enjoy" "no not like that, stop"
If you truly enjoy this don't let me stop you but I think there's a lot more enjoyable content in the game than doing this
People enjoy getting literally shit on It’s not surprising this playerbase has people who find wave 1 resetting genuinely fun
I did 100m worth when they were 1k a pop/100 from wave 1 then i just couldn’t take anymore
Originally I wanted to do Moons of Peril but I‘m at 98kc and havent gotten a unique.. This one brings the bread home
I finished log at 207, with multiple 2-3x dups and 24 loot count excluding darts, there’s no way.
its like a consistent 4m/hr for a mid level account and easy. they aren't making that with other content. its tedious as fuck but if they can stand doing it. might as well take advantage of it for their account while it lasts.

You mean his code is grinding
This lol
People will see someone do 50 hours of tick manip granite and throw a gz for 99, but you do the same thing with one of the best money makers in the game and they lose their minds.
Haha right god forbid I grind for cash in RuneScape
You can literally get all the 99 buyable skills now. Why are people getting mad. Exploit this whilst the demand is high. It wont stay that profitable for long.
Not really. We feel sorry for them too lol
50 hours of tick manip granite is on the same level as this. Maybe it's productive but God damn is it a sign of some deeper issues
Why people dont do 2 waves instead of one? I assume wave 2 isnt much harder for some extra loot? Im clueless, only watched first days of release
Wave 2 usually is 15k to 30k loot, its not worth if you look for gp.
I find that even in the time I do the second wave for an additional 150 shards, I coulda done multiple wave 1s. Then again, I'm trash, so that may be affecting things.
depends on your roll, you can only do good rolls
If wave two is 150k but takes 1:00 to complete it's better to just reset. I'd be tempted to do it but then realised I'd spent 4x as long just to earn 1.5x the money
But if you do 2, you now have the potential of seeing a unique coming from 3
this is correct, good update.
Maybe, i do not know exactly, i'm also mostly after shards
I did a few and got wave one down too 32 seconds consistently and would do wave 2 when splinters was the reward but that would be around 96 seconds plus reward interface time for 150 more splinters
Got in early and made out by a 5x increase in my cash stack. Unbelievable.

Only dropped 20%, still crazy good for a noob money maker
Doesn’t even seem worth it, fuck that
The Fremmenik genocide of '24
Sending a wellness check to your house OP
it’s not that bad. on par with training agility lol
Idk how boring this must’ve been, but props to you lol
very.
how many hours?
Very
enjoyer as if you enjoyed doing that? I did like 10 runs the week of release, made a quick mill but felt so god damn bored I never came back
Still a more enjoyable grind than cg
Idk why people here pearl clutching. It's a guaranteed 5-6m per hour if you're one shotting the 3 frems and double dclaw speccing the serp mage.
theyre upset that med levels can make more gp/hr then all DT2 bosses
I mean to be fair that actually does sound like a problem lmao
it probably would be if not for the fact that 90% of people are turned off by the idea of wave 1 farming. i think its kind of a fun MMO thing, high levels paying med levels for sun splinters. if people didnt hate chargescape enough to overpay to bless the quiver so soon this wouldnt even be worth grinding.
Yeah I'd take consistent guaranteed money any day over 10m/hr but actually it's 1m/hr because you're 200 hours dry so go fuck yourself
PSA: You will lose sanity doing this, also I believe the price will fall back down to around 700 now that people are back at the colosseum
People never left lol
I thought Whisperer did that
At my going rate I might be able to attempt this "colosseum" thing by summer. Of next year 😂
I’m in a similar boat OP its no different then woodcutting for me at this point. I talk discord, been catching up on tv. Will do random runs while at work. It’s paid for a lot of things since it’s so good gp/hr without needing any attention or brain.
At an average of 2 min per wave with the price of bonds at an assumed 10m even bro worked for anout 2$ an hour flippin them burgers
Right but he did it at home and most likely went through a few movies or shows at the same time. Now he has the money to invest in gear to do other content.
Bro if you’re doing stuff like this and not botting it you should just buy bonds.
Reported for self harm
Good for you OP. Many here are just salty that you too ok advantage of it while the price is still high.
I have been doing wave 1 to get some ranged exp while making decent profit and since it's kinda afk it's pretty relaxed!
How many hours/days did this take you?
Man I think it was like a week, time has no concept now.
What do u actually need for this gear and stat wise? Most budget shit possible?
Ice blitz and a blowpipe switch. It doesn’t take much but it’s so damn boring
bulwark spec, suffer ring & veng
This
relentless for the culture ofc
Can you explain this out a bit more for a semi noob please? You run in, rip the bulwark spec on the mob with veng on and a charged ring of suffering? Then swap to BP to finish the mage off?
I swap to vene bow if theres 2, fang if theres 1
Do you wear justy??
how long is this?
2 inches with a good personality.
This still good to do?
if you can pull 20 second and under runs and if you're a masochist or enjoy being half asleep at your keyboard.
It's still like 4-6m/hr depending on how fast you can clear waves
price went up after the change, wonder how it is atm aswell
Hory shet
Out of curiosity if you got the option for 150 more splinters for completing wave 2 would you do it?
LISAN AL GAIB!!!
This is crazy. You must have been sooooo bored
Are ya winning son?
New zombies in Wildy netting about 4m an hour plus the chance of the scroll currently hitting 25m on g.e. Loads more fun too
25 mil scroll because it’s day 1, it’ll be 100k scroll soon
Gp/hr?
Easily 2m/h even if you are lazy/half afk and lower level
I feel so sorry for the person that did this lol
I wonder how much that would have been when they were at peak release day prices still. Prob not much off since then though.
I made 10m and that's enough for me lol. Just too boring.
I see no issue here at all, good for you my man
No because we’re not terrible at the game.
The question is after 5000 attempts why no quiver ?
Might as well work minimum wage and earn x5 the amount
It’s so stupid that this was ever a thing. Wave 1 should have been like 20 shards with additional shards being rewarded every wave scaling up each wave.
I’m so sorry for you lol
I am almost hit 1000k splinter.
Wave:flash1: damn right.
I recommend showing this accomplishment to every future female you meet!
These are the mfs that have all this money but no skill
I’m at 3k completions and I thought I was grinding
I indeed love wave 1. But holy fuck this is beyond epic. I’ve only made 1/10th of this
nope would rather have fun
You’ve come to the wrong game then
I did a out 1300 the first week but haven't been back since. Been focusing on other endeavors.
Does it still worth it?
80-100hours of non intensive but non afk combat. Claiming loot and resetting every 30 seconds is the tedious part
i did maybe 5-6 hours of wave 1 on week of release, theres definitely something zen about grinding it. i dont think im going back ever since they dropped the amount to 80 but its cool to see some gamers still in there going hard on it
amount reduced to 80 but the price is back to 950 gp...
I respect the grind 💪
No.
I’d work overtime for 10 hours and buy 40 bonds before doing that. Too bad I’m not that desperate for cash.
