I Found This Insane New Method, Then Jagex Patched It.

In the ever-evolving realm of video games, there are epic tales of adventure, skill, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. One such story unfolds in the world of Old School RuneScape, where on February 23rd, Jagex celebrated the 10th birthday of this iconic game. The celebration wasn't just about cake and party hats; it brought forth rewards from a seasonal event that set the gaming community abuzz. Among these treasures was a peculiar gem: the dragon candle dagger. A weapon with stats that guaranteed hits of zero. What's not to love, right? Well, you see, this unique blade had a history.

Two months prior, a similar weapon had made its debut and sent shockwaves through the community. It sparked controversy, particularly among the level three players, who believed it devalued their Slayer achievements. In the blink of an eye, Jagex succumbed to the clamor and reverted the change. Level threes, including our valiant author, knocked on Jagex's virtual door, fervently petitioning for a return of a similar splash weapon. But alas, silence prevailed, no official response was granted.

Recently, Jagex decided to up the ante by adding high scores for level threes, even including Slayer levels. However, there's a cruel twist in this tale. Current Slayer methods offer a measly 2,000 experience per hour, which makes the epic journey to level 99 Slayer, demanding around 7,000 hours of grinding, seem like a distant dream. It's akin to chasing a dragon – almost mythical. Even our author, who boasted 200 million XP across all trainable skills, found themselves ranked a mere fifth on the level threes' high score list. It's a humbling experience, isn't it?

Unearthing the Dragon Dagger's Hidden Power

But as our author stared at that fifth position, they weren't ready to throw in the towel. No, they decided to embark on an audacious quest to boost their Slayer experience rates. And what better time to undertake this perilous journey than when the dragon candle dagger, with its baffling zero-damage attribute, was available for the taking?

The author strapped on their virtual armor and ventured into the treacherous wilderness to face the might of Slayer tasks. At first, they estimated the method would yield a respectable 10 to 12k experience per hour. But then, something incredible happened. The actual results surpassed their wildest expectations. They quickly realized that to maintain this incredible pace, they had to master the art of managing their aggression timer. And that was no easy feat, given the lurking demons and their deadly intentions. The timer became less of a concern after the first 10 minutes of each task, but a cruel twist awaited them: death. Each demise reset the timer, an infuriating ordeal.

As our fearless author braved the wilds, they also introduced their sponsor, Gamer Subs, which offers caffeine alternatives to traditional energy drinks. They even sweetened the deal with a code for free samples and a discount for purchases. It was like a lifeline for virtual warriors who needed that extra boost.

Slayer XP Wars: A Battle of Epic Proportions

In the grand scheme of this adventure, our author's pursuit of excellence in Slayer experience was nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. From black demons to spiders, each task presented its unique challenges. The spiders, hidden in multi-combat areas, proved to be formidable foes, not just because of their aggression but also due to the presence of player killers (PKers) lurking in the shadows. It was a classic battle of wits in the digital realm.

But our author was no ordinary player; they were on a mission. A mission to gather precious XP rate data for each task to unlock the secrets of optimal gameplay. In the wild wilderness, a unique tactic emerged – dropping items to foil the PKers, only to retrieve them after a noble demise. The digital underworld was a complex web of strategies and counter-strategies.

After many arduous battles, our author conquered the spider task with a subpar XP rate. But then, a twist of fate occurred. Completing their 30th task earned them a significant point boost, akin to a shot of adrenaline, and they were ready to extend their next task, which involved battling black demons. A task that promised high XP rewards and excitement.

Epic Encounters, Majestic Rewards

The adventure continued as our author anticipated a task involving bears, notorious for their low XP rates. But they were not to be deterred. Armed with venom, our hero executed a cunning strategy to eliminate the bears efficiently. The path to glory was fraught with challenges, but the allure of high XP rates was too enticing to resist.

A mammoth task awaited our Slayer champion, offering not only prestige but also the promise of astonishing XP rates. It was a moment of triumph and jubilation. The journey was filled with epic encounters, each one adding to the story, the legend of our Slayer.

And then, as every great story has its little hiccups, our author forgot to record one of their tasks – a battle against the dark warriors. But in the grand tapestry of their adventure, it was a minor glitch.
