Creating an account. Login with credentials, you do not need to go to a site to make an account.

Selecting a game mode

You can select between 6 different Ironman Modes. Regular Ironman, Hardcore Ironman, Ultimate Ironman, Group Ironman, Gilded Ironman, and Duo Ironman. On the right hand side of the above photo you can see what you can do in this mode. You can see on the top right side of the mode selection box what each mode will allow you to do. For example: On Regular Ironman you can **NOT** trade with players, may **NOT** loot other players items, you **WILL** have access to using a bank, and you **WILL** have more than 1 life.

You can see in the bottom left hand side of the box you can select an experience mode. There are 3 to choose between. They are Regular, Hard, and Extreme. The rates as you go down the list get smaller, except the drop rate which will increase the slower your experience rate. For Example if you choose Hard experience mode you will get 5% extra drop rate chance.

## **Important Starting Tips**

You will get an item called **Starter Task Scroll,** this scroll will give you an easy task to start the game. You should work towards this as early as possible as it gives some really good rewards such as a **Dramen Box, an XP Lamp (medium), and 3 Supply Crates.**

You are able to vote by typing **::Vote** in-game. After you type this an internet link will pop up asking you for your username, type it in the box and then you will see 4 boxes appear. You can vote on RuneLocus, RSPS-List, and RSPS100 every 12 hours, TOP100Arena you must wait every 24 hours. Voting has some really good in game rewards, make sure to vote as often as you can as it will help advertise for the server and get more new players to come experience **Dramen**! After you vote you will see the boxes turn green to tell you that you have successfully voted. After this type **::claim** in-game for your vote tickets!

After you claimed your in game votes, you can left click on them in your inventory then you can claim rewards by clicking on the NPC in the south of the home bank.

## **Paths to Take**

Here are some Brief Starts that you can do that are good for Ironmen.

### **PvM - Slayer**

You can start by going right into Slayer. You will speak to Turael for your first task. All slayer masters are Northwest of the Home Bank.

You will need to right click him and then click assignment. Slayer masters are based on combat level and you will only be able to get tasks if you have the right combat level. When you complete a slayer task you will get a casket which will give you GP. The only difference to this is when you complete a task from the Konar slayer master. You will receive a Brimstone Key.

### **PvM - Void**

For this start you will need to get 40 Combat. The best way to do this without doing slayer is by typing **::Train**. This will teleport you to rock crabs which you can train on to get 40 Combat.

After you get 40 Combat you can teleport to Pest Control. You can do this by doing Minigames Teleports -> Pest Control -> Teleport. You will then run south and cross the gangplank to join a game! You will get a GP reward, commendation, and points for each game! You can spend these to get things like void, Fighter Torso, Supply Crates, or Barrows Gloves. **To get full elite void you will need 1310 Points.** Save up! To buy this armor you can trade the Squire to the west of the bank at Pest Control.

### **Skilling**

I believe this is probably the easiest and you can make really fast money doing this and get great supplies. You can start by going for your Daily Tasks, level up skills towards them as they will give you easy points and easy rewards. You can get a drop called a Skilling Task Scroll from skilling. You should do these early and often as they are a great way to level up and a great way to get supplies as they give you some supply crates, an xp lamp, GP, and skilling chests!

### **Wilderness - Slayer**

**\*This is a dangerous way to start. I don't recommend it if you are fresh to the server or Ironman\***

You will start by going to Krystilia in the slayer master area to the Northeast of the bank at home.

You will be able to get caskets from wildy slayer. You can also get wildy key 1, 2, and 3. You can then open these after getting all three at the Slayer Master.
