Administrator Iron Tyrone Posted April 17, 2022 Administrator Share Posted April 17, 2022 Greetings fellow Ultimate Iron-fellow. This guide is going to be kind-of small, but will outline some very important pieces of content to help you start on a UIM. Things to know You can mostly follow my other guide; Ironman Handbook: Progression. With the exception that you have to manage your inventory space wisely, and that you can't do Dungeoneering whenever you want due to having items on you. Starting off your account. Dungeoneering: At the start of the UIM experience, I would suggest starting with Dungeoneering. You can't do Dungeoneering when you have items so you'd ideally focus on that first. Try to set yourself the goal of getting most, if not ALL unlockables (skilling scrolls) from the Dungeoneering Reward Shop. Other than the skilling scrolls, aim for a Bonecrusher, and at least a single bone necklace - regardless of its tier, these will come in handy in the future. The reason you only really need to focus on these listed above is because you can do Elite Dungeon trash-runs later in the game to get Dungeoneering EXP. Rather than the forcing yourself to the "conventional" Daemonheim dungeoneering runs to train. *After Dungeoneering - don't forget to grab a pair of Silverhawk boots from the Oddments Shop, or Diango* These are BIS Hybrid Boots up to Lv65, and when charged, provide some very nice Agility EXP with no effort. Invention Once you've finished with your Dungeoneering goals, set your eyes on Invention. Invention requires levels 80 in the following skills; Crafting, Divination, and Smithing. For Crafting, I'd suggest Gem Rocks in Al-Kharid Mine - just mine them, cut them, drop them (you can turn the Rubies into Bolt Tips for Ruby Bolts in the future).*For the above, you should hopefully have enough combat levels from Dungeoneering for the Scorpions to no longer be aggressive* For Divination, the conventional method of training paired with doing GCTs is recommended. For Smithing, you just do it normally - there are no "special" or "suggested" methods to train this skill. The skilling tools made with Invention are nice to use, you'll want Invention to make specific accessories in the future (more info on this in my Progression guide). Another reason for wanting to rush Invention are the Invention Machines. You'll NEVER turn on the Generator, so these will be some extra storage. You're able to create up to 6 total machines - personally I suggest 3 Disassembling Machines, and 3 Alchemisers. This will give you a total of 18 storage space in the machines. Machine Storage Priority As for Storage Priority, you'll want 3 slots for Runes ( Blood, Death, Soul) - ignore this if you get a Rune Pouch from the Vote Shop. 3 slots for Consumables (1 food, 2 potion - ie; Sharks, Prayer Potions & Weapon Poisons - these potions are obtained from ED trash runs). 2 slots for useful Herblore Supplies ( Bloodweed, Searing Ashes), and the rest of the slots are up to you - but these are what I suggest to keep. Managing your inventory/gear. When it comes to managing your inventory as a UIM, you want to focus on a few things. For the majority of playing, you'll want to utilize either; easy to obtain/store buyable gear, or long-term-use Hybrid Gear.*For the above I recommend using the starter Pathfinder gear, or Monk Robes until you get Dragon Rider gear* For specific early styles, Lunar from the Oneiromancer has amazing usage for low-level magic gear and will carry you with mage for a LONG time. Other than Lunar, there aren't really that many "good" options for other styles. For Melee there is Proselyte which is great since it has a good prayer bonus. The Hybrid Gears that I'd suggest other than Pathfinder/Dragon Rider are; Akrisae ( Augmentable), Crystal Armour, Attuned Crystal Armour, and Anima Core of Sliske (inc Refined, both Augmentable.).*Though I'll specify again, you can use normal gears that you earn instead of Hybrid gear - Hybrid Gear just saves time and space.* When it comes to Inventory management, you'll want to hold Clue Scrolls (Degrade all BUT Elites, down to Easy & Elite where applicable). You'll want to hold onto an Enhanced Excalibur for its healing effect, Cape swaps such as Mage Arena Capes, and Avas (ignore once you get any Skillcape). Weapons such as; the Polypore Staff, Bane 2h +4, Attuned/Crystal Bow are effective one-slot weapons. The Polypore Staff requires charges and not conventional spells, the Bane 2h can be upgraded to a Dragonbane 2h for KBD afking in the future (can also be augmented). Other gear slots: Pocket, Ring, and Necklace.For these slots I would recommend the following. Illuminated Book of Wisdom for the pocket slot, bought from Jossik and completed with the pages from clue scrolls. Asylum Surgeon's Ring (i) for the ring slot, bought from the Vote Shop in order. Bone Necklaces from Dungeoneering, they work in tandem with the Bonecrusher for almost infinite prayer points - bought from dungeoneering. Other necklaces I would recommend are; Blood Fury (Hybrid + Healing passive), Amulet of Souls (Passive boosts SoulSplit's effect), Essence of Finality (Has both AOS and Reaper Neck Passives + spec storage), Grace of the Elves (Solely for skilling - hold in your keepsake storage, or inventory) Keepsake Storage. Storing items in the Keepsake storage is essential for Ultimate Ironmen. The basis is that the Keepsake Function on Velheim. You can store normal equipment as cosmetic overrides in the Keepsake Storage. This feature means that you can store up to 50 pieces of equippable items in the Keepsake Storage. To Keepsake an item, all you have to do is use a Keepsake Key on the item you want to store. You can get Keepsake Keys from Solomon's Store in the SOF Tab, the online Store, the Wise Old Man for Loyalty Points, or the prestige shop. When you want to retrieve an item that you have stored, go into the SOF Tab > Customisation > then go into the Keepsake Section with the button on the top right. From there, click the item you want to retrieve and click the button to do so. This is mainly to store items that you otherwise would not need in your inventory, or items that cannot be stored anywhere. Examples of these are Guildmaster Tony's mattock and Tavia's Fishing rod. This also applies to most, if not all augmented gear that you aren't currently using. If you can sacrifice the inventory slot to hold that equipment, then feel free to hold it in your inventory. But in the longrun, with multiple offensive weapon styles (magic, range, melee) then you'll need to utilize the keepsake storage. This guide is still mostly a WIP, but I'll update it whenever I feel like it tbh - it's a LOT of work explaining UIM strats. Its mainly just managing inventory, inv machines, and keepsake slots - and still following the Ironman restrictions. 1 1 UIM Dung Storage 1 day pls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Phil Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Thanks for the guide Tyrone, I followed part of it starting off, I figured while I waited my 48 hours of transfering my Status that I would work on skills and minimize the need of items during that time. I was able to obtain 80 Divinaiton/80 Crafting/80 Smithing within the first few hours. Divination: Guthix Caches Crafting & Smithing: Proteans (Takes about 100-200 bars, and 100-300 hides) I just recommend buying a couple of bonds and doing spins and then buying proteans or get lucky. I recommend unlocking invention early on because most items give high junk, repeat this with dailies until you receive 15K+ junk. BIS Junk is: Halberds/Bows/Spears. This took me 3-4 days worth of daily shop runs. After Smith/Craft were done, or I was working on, I was working on my stats, aimed for 70+ish everything, by the time my Donator rank was transfered, I was ready to begin dung. I started with 70 Range, I got lucky and immediately received a Shadow hood, I collected my votes until the dung grind so I was able to get extra XP. Reset my ring of kinship 3-4 times on the way to 120 dungeoneering. Once that was complete, I had 10m Tokens for any chaotic/prayer/perks/pages(can obtain from Maw, I wouldn't buy unless impatient.) Having the junk grind over, I made 4 Fishing Rod-o-Matics, perked them with Furnace 4/Honed 4(Having perks makes the levels go faster.) got 30mish fishing XP but managed to get 120 Invention while unlocking discoveries aswell. I had 90ish clues at this point, turned them into easies, and D/A'd all the fortunate items. I went to Kalg' demons, and got lucky with 3 Onyxes in 20 KC. Making my LOTD and unlocking Dark Magic. As soon as I finished that grind, I returned to slayer, included possible reapers, avianisie tasks I did arma, got lucky and finished log in 139 KC. No dupes. When I unlocked Feral dinosaurs, I got lucky and finished pipe by 270 KC, all the other bones I used towards prayer and unlocked ancient magics, got a Nex task, got pet 1 KC, and so far going pretty great. Can't wait to continue this UIM experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
