Devine combat, restores, goad pots, no looting, standing in the middle & intense clicking to never stop hitting maxing XP, I was getting 190k xp n hour 😅 95k looting everything but tin & copper (still better than nmz), 140k-150k looting just essence.

Lost my firecape the day before in wildly or it’d be in there 😢😂
Made an ironman about 2 months ago. Got the sulphur blades drop super early. I’m about base 70 melee stats across. I get about 90k+ exp/hr there. Literally the hidden gem for mid game ironman looking for melee combat exp
@@Steven-hq3go true. I will say that these are obvs more involving, but still minimal effort. Crabs are 100% afk for about 40-45k exp/hr at my level(70s).

@@Steven-hq3go what are your levels/gear? you might not be killing them in 5 attacks, where they then proc prayer drain. if you can kill them quick enough its way more wortha
@@Steven-hq3go yeah i think the vid kind of ignores the reason you do nmz/crabs which is the afk. if you want ez combat xp theyre adding a lot of stuff like scurrius is very good xp/hr if u have low lvl gear
im new to osrs, so I have been living at crabs on my alt monitor, i will have to try this method out, all the weapons mentioned ive never heard of us lol. Thanks for the video!
Welcome to OSRS! Crabs are good start, as you need to do a lot of birdhouse runs anyways on Fossil island, but once you can start doing Moons and want to be more active vs afking, this is amazing!
100k+ cballs from 70-90 melees here as well if you hate BF shop, 200k if you buy the rest of the coal. Combined with chaos+death rune drops it's a nice setup for slayer
The only reason to do NMZ is on UIM where you can fully refund the points to store the now not imbued item. Of course you got scrolls from arena, but the scroll is given back upon refund instead of points that don't take up an inventory slot.
Got 95 Str and 90 Att/Def here before swapping to Slayer on my GIM. Got enough chaos runes in drops to fund my whole 5 mans furies. I'm surprised its taken someone so long to make a vid on em!
Tried some early naguas on my iron and it's busted. However sand crabs still got a place for hard afking. With 60 prayer i got less than 4 minutes of afk before id have to sip again. While sandcrabs are 8 minutes and they wont kill you if you clean your apartment for too long. So naguas for active training and sand crabs for hard afk
as someone who did this 92-99 str (because I'm a degen) I can confirm; full moon, zerk, firecape, tort, fero gloves. 145k/hr without using piety. just prot melee.
It’s a really great training spot although I don’t see much people at. I did like 500 perilous moons and I barely saw anyone there every time I pass through this area even when I switched worlds lol. Every time I did, 90% of them were ironmen.

forgot to mention you can catch moonlight moths at the other spot to the left and extend your prayer for even longer, i believe they can also be tick manipulated to instantly catch them if you pass the hunter check
But nmz you can afk 20 mins. This is much faster but per attention time I still prefer nmz, especially cause you can look at it whenever you please and the 25 min just resets.
Every time I hear the background music for some reason, I think im a goat who worships demons and sacrifices the followers of my cult to the demons, so I gain magic powers and more followers in return who work for me on my farm.
oh, you're not completely right about the recs btw. the moonlight pots only give you the boosts comparable to a super set if you have the herblore level to makea super set. they will give you a boost comparable to normal potions instead if you're low.

True, but FYI, you NEED to complete the quest to get runecraft XP from the sulfur essence
for lower levels & average gear:
they drain prayer every 5 attacks - making it less afk until str/attk ~ 75 . at which point you'll kill them quick enough to stop this from proccing
You can also catch the moths for prayer restore so you use less potions for prayer and more for stats.
55 Herblore is completely free now that legends quests gives 120,000 Herblore XP. So insane.

I mentioned using them halfway through. Yes they work, but you should go to Frost Naguas or do Moons to get better. They aren't great.
What is that clan for Soul Wars??
Haven’t seen it listed in the comments but you will at some point need to imbue a salve at NMZ for Ardy Elite so there’s still one reason to do NMZ

One weakness of this spot compared to NMZ is you can't afk for as long. Nmz allows for 10 mins afk

8 more damage is essentially 16 more max hit. which is crazy indeed
I wondered why after doing this for 3 weeks it was suddenly crowded af
I did 1600 kills there to get sulphur blades and I couldn't believe I didn't see one other person there.
You dont need to kill the moons before you can do it, you only need it to turn in the runecraft xp
Only downside is those boppers are fairly high stat requirement, haha. Guess ima use d mace till I get Sulphur blades from em
But nmz you can afk 20 mins. This is much faster but per attention time I still prefer nmz, especially cause you can look at it whenever you please and the 25 min just resets.
