Ironman Mode

***About the IronMan*****​**

**Iron Man, You are unable to trade players and use (most) shops. This requires you to be entirely self sufficient, this ranges from making your own potions to mining/smithing your own weapons and armor, and everything in between. IronMan Mode experience rates are significantly less than normal accounts on SoulPlay, coming in at a measly 3x exp compared to real Runescape.**

 **It is recommended you do slayer as early as possible to obtain crucial items that will help you train faster. (Fighter's Torso, BGloves, D Boots, Bonecrusher, etc) So once you feel comfortable with your stats, get right in it. Task too hard? You have unlimited slayer task skips without penalty so go for something easy.​**

**Woodcutting and Mining - Stores have Bronze/Iron, Mithril, and Rune tools, nothing in between.
Fishing and cooking - Stores offer the tools you will need to fish your own food.**

 **Crafting - As of now crafting needs changed. Its pretty hard to level it efficiently. Best way to level this is to kill scorpions for uncut sapphires which drop 50% of the time.**

 **For everything else, please see the appropriate guides in the skilling section.​**

## **Training Melee**

**Upon creating your IronMan account you will have 1 hour of double exp. Use your slayer gem and go to a slayer master and open shop, buying a slayer staff or leaf spear, if not both. Spear is shared exp while staff is not.
​*Teleports > Training > Yaks/experiments***

**​Use the double exp to your advantage upon account creation and get some quick levels making sure to use your newly acquired slayer weapon which will carry you over until 40 attack. You can train here until you feel well equipped to do slayer, or simply just grind here as long as you want. Your choice.
​Your goal, if melee, is to get 40 attack and an appropriate strength level for equipping a rune scimitar, then dragon scimitar, then whip. It's also highly suggested to get 43 dungeoneering at this level you will have enough tokens to buy the imp which automatically adds charms from monsters to your inventory.**

 **Obtaining a Rune Scimitar and Rune Armor**
***Teleports > Dungeons > Revenant Dungeon (3rd page)*​**

**Here you will be killing revenant imps and if you can, goblins as well. As always, be careful of pkers. Revenant's Have 50% chance to drop rune amour as well which is so handy and useful saves you from making it yourself.**

**Obtaining a Dragon Scimitar**
**​The fastest and most efficient way (requiring 37 prayer) is Revenant Knight's and Revenant Dark Beasts. If you want to go the long route or that option isn't available, you can kill a variety of monsters for an 11% drop chance. Also Green Dragons and Blue Dragons have 11% chance to drop scimitars would  recommended them as well. You can always ::checkdrops-npc name to see what monster drops what.**

***Obtaining an Abyssal Whip**​*

**IronMan route by killing Abyssal Demons, or buy it straight from the slayer shop for task points. Either way, easy. Abyssal Demons are good training Experience with Bonecrusher and 43 pray for protect from meele. They probably best way to afk train and have high drop chance of crimson charms. Level 85 slayer is required.**

 **Obtaining Defenders**
***Teleports > Minigames > Warrior's Guild* ​**

**You need tokens to gain access to the cyclops on the top floor which drop the defenders. You can either smith your own low level tier gear to use and reanimate or use rune that you will have obtained from revenant imps/goblins. Keep in mind, the rune monster that you summon can hit 20 so pray is recommended. Donators Can buy dragon defenders Aswell, this would be good method to train also.**

 **Training Ranging**
**​I can't speak for the most efficient way to do this as currently knives are glitched so they don't get picked up by ava's accumulator, so we're left with going with the old shortbow.
This is where you will be forced to raise a few skills. Woodcutting and Fletching for making bows/c'bows, mining and smithing for making arrows/bolts (with the help of fletching, of course). Magic shortbows have a 4.1% chance to drop from gwd minions.
Rune c'bow is the easier of the two to obtain via pvm from the avatar of ranging @ 11%.
That being said, grind out 61 and get yourself a c'bow from the avatar!**

 **Training Magic**
**​Off the bat, magic is fairly easy. Being sure to use staves to your advantage and save runes, do ::whatdrops staff of (rune name here), until you get a decent staff and enough runes to not care about saving and being frugal.
Magic will force you to level runecrafting, which is the fastest way by far to obtain runes. The other way being doing barrows, which isn't as fast, but has its own rewards.
Fairly straight forward. Use basic spells until 21 (try yaks or experiments) and go the low alch road if you choose, the exp definitely isn't something to argue about assuming you have the runes. At 55 you can high alch which is by far the easiest way to level the skill, otherwise you can go about PvMing using magic and passively level it.**

 **Training Prayer**
**​As always, you should be burying if not saving every bone you get as a drop (then later using on an altar for 2x exp).
You can obtain a bone crusher once your slayer gear is bought (prioritize your gloves and torso first) and you can then use the bone crusher for regular and big bones. I recommend using everything else on an altar.
Handy tip Kill Blue dragons and collect bones. Of course remember your anti-fire shield, bought from the edgeville general store.
*^ ^ ^ ^ Teleports > Dungeons > Taverly Dungeon ^ ^ ^ ^* ​**

**Everything else is pretty basic. 43 Prayer should be a goal from the start, Hill giant slayer tasks are good for big bones if dragons are too tough.**

## **Tips And Hints!**

Barrows, You Have to do Barrows on a iron man best way to gains alot of runes and useful amour. For example im using karils crossbow and bolt racks for tokhaar-kil [kiln cape] and runes to train my mage. Barrows mini game is pretty basic and easy i would recommend doing at around combat 80.

Abyssal Demons, Best Ways to train combat and pray at same time level 85 slayer is required. Bonecrusher is a Must for iron man helps alot burying all bones for you. Abyssal demons are by the best slayer task for iron man and perfect slayer task recommend trying to get these for a task instead.

Smithing, You Can Currently buy iron bars and other useful items used for skilling @summoning teleport pikkupstix Shop Very handy.
