I have decided to lock myself in each region of runescape for 24 hours and progress my account and bank as far as possible. At the end of those 24 hours, I take on the hardest PVM content I have access to in that area, and if I lose, I drop everything I gathered in that region and start over again from scratch in the next region. I’ve implemented some rules to make this series harder than what it already is. I won’t be using tick manipulation in any way. I really want my supplies to matter on the way to my goal, so tick eating and prayer flicking will not be allowed until I reach my goal and will only be allowed while attempting the final challenge of the series. I’ll also be implementing a simple milestone system. Once I survive a region, I permanently unlock the ability to keep 1 item if I wipe. This will be multiplicative and will allow me to continue to progress the series at a healthy pace, but failing a region is still incredibly detrimental. Now you might be asking, what’s the end goal and to that I say… the infernal cape. I’ve never attempted this before, and I want to challenge myself in a way I never have with this series. I know Zuk is the hardest PVM content in the game right now, so that’s why I made it the end goal. This means that If I roll Karamja, Zuk won’t be required. Zuk will be immediately unlocked once I successfully complete all 10 regions in a row without failing and will be immediately challenged and if I fail, I start all over again. Regions will be selected at random (except at account creation, the first region will be Misthalin). I’ve also made a rule that once an area has been completed, it cannot be randomly selected again until I die. This stops randomly rolling easy areas with easier PVM content and stacking up permanent unlocks. If you all have any questions or think this is a hype idea, drop a comment or like!

Really enjoyed this video concept! A good idea could be to have a running timer on screen to show us how much is left until the region is done/ build suspense. The intro was incredible and I'm excited for the next episode!

Very cool idea, and I think the execution is great so far! I do, however, think the pvm content at the end of the time limit should be to the death, in proper roguelike fashion (but i understand wanting to save the hardcore status). Looking forward to seeing more of this, good luck!

You got my attention with the title, held it for your explanation, and now you have my interest, my sub, and my best wishes. This is a super cool idea, and I can’t wait to see what you do with the series. I also enjoy you having the ability to plan to fail, so you can get after it better next time

I think this is amazing idea. Found you through the YouTube reccomended algorithm. Can’t wait to be an active and regular subscriber and watcher!

Holy shit man, I remember discovering your chests only ironman series forever ago. You’ve come so far in terms of your production value and video quality, maybe the most improved I’ve ever seen!
-
Absolutely love this concept! Was a little confused on whether you'd be restarting on a new account or just dropping all gear till the end. I don't think it'd be possible with a full reset, but all the nightmare mode stuff had me on that wavelength I think.
