Everything Musicked Ever Wanted To Achieve On A HCIM: A Quest

Welcome to my progress towards whatever is needed to become a HCIM with an Infernal Cape!

Non-Sensical (now Musicked) is an older HCIM of mine that I retired pretty early on. I started another HCIM, which achieved a Fire Cape along with some Barrows gear, but that account (Death Flag) ended up dying of poison while DC’ing. I’m determined to play this account wisely enough to make it until the actual endgame this time! Right now, I’m still very early into the account, so there’s much progress (and dopamine shots) to be had. Take a look at my skills:



Let’s have an awesome adventure! Hopefully you’ll be a part of it, I’ll definitely make sure to celebrate my achievements ingame with the clan!

If you have any tips along the way, feel free to post them or anything else you want to say on this thread:)

Cheers!

A nice goal to aim towards, although will require some grinds since Inferno often requires good gear which can be dangerous to obtain

Solid start in skills, big fan of the early good start on Agility ^^

Good luck on jour journey ! ^^

Thank you!! I should say, the Infernal Cape is my ultimate dream goal, but I’m definitely in it for the journey and I’ll do my very best to survive! If I die along the way, I won’t be restarting this time. But for now, I can still call this a hardcore quest!! Hopefully you, as an experienced high level HCIM, can give me some advice along the way^^

I've been grinding pretty hard during the past week! I want to get closer to completing RFD and Barrows, so I can try to shoot for my first Fire Cape on this account. This is how the stats are looking:

 

Since the SOTW is Fishing this week, I also opted to try and collect my Angler gear, and just LOOK how that went:



If I can keep that RNG up, I'm sure I'll be a very affluent Hardcore, hahah! Or I just wasted all my luck, that's ofcourse also possible. Either way, making posts like these does provide some extra motivation for potentially tedious grinds like trawler. I was looking forward to share my KC here, no matter what it would become. Guess this was a pretty pog moment.

Now I'm ready for Tempoross!



Thank you for reading and see you at the next update!

Cheers

That's an amazing goal for a hardcore! I really hope you manage to accomplish that cape! Do you have any experience with the Inferno prior to this account?
Also, that trawler rng is absolute bananas haha. Glad you got it that early

Thank you! And I agree, it's very ambitious and it's probably going to take me years. Which will make this thread hopefully an interesting one to read through over time! ^^ I have no Inferno experience whatsoever apart from watching it a good amount of times on YouTube. I guess that means I have knowledge of it, but definitely no experience. It's gonna be a grind and getting there is going to be dangerous. Exactly the way I like to play!

And yeah, so happy with Trawler RNG hahahah. Got a drop at Tempoross too after that, I'll include that in my next update

such a cool goal! also am very jealous of that trawler kc and drop XD I've been stuck on what to do with my account lately and you have motivated me to go back to trawler!

Looking forward to seeing your progress with this and also stocked for all the dopamine hits your getting at the moment <3

Thank you!! Was very pleased with Trawler. I hope you can get lucky too, wouldn't want to have inspired you to go dry for a long time at a despicable place :')

There will be some good dopamine screens coming your way soon, the account is on fire right now!

A very quick update from me, since I've passed a pretty cool milestone for Irons: achieving 1000+ total level!  

I could now totally commit to being Iron, and lock in the status, omitting the ability to de-Iron.
I've leveled a lot since last update, mostly by questing. Sandcrabs have boosted my combat stats and we're now well into the 60's! Hunter is the last skill below 10, but that will change very soon, too. This is how it's looking right now:


I feel like whenever I get new cool or useful gear, I should include it in my update posts! I'm working towards being able to complete RFD still, but I just completed The Slug Menace, which means... Proselyte armour! Very good for the Prayer bonus and therefore useful for Slayer tasks. Take a look at the fashion:




Thank you for reading! I will keep chipping away at quests to get closer to my Barrows Gloves. So expect updates about that goal! I'll also keep on skilling and bumping up that total level to the next milestone I set for myself, which is 1250. Stay tuned <3

Cheers

I've been away for a while on this thread, but I have definitely not been away from the game! Pretty proud of the progress I've been making, and I wanted to share with you all where the account stands. Let me show you the relevant screens first, and then I'll talk about them for a bit:


I just completed A Taste of Hope in this picture, and man was I nervous for that fight! In the end, it wasn't that big of a deal after all, especially not if you're used to Fight Caves or anything more difficult. I'm happy to have gained the medallion to Theater of Blood, and as you can see I've completed many other quests, including Recipe for Disaster! I've completed Monkey Madness 1 and The Fremennik Isles too, and I managed to get myself some dragon weaponry, including a Defender. Of course, stars were a big thing, so I made a huge leap in Mining levels, and we managed to get the outfit + the golden trim on it via stars. The excessive stardust was spent on gems, which got me my Crafting levels. We did some achievement diaries and clues, but only got some cool cosmetic uniques and the two trimmed armour pieces you can see in the picture above. I also still have my hardcore status, which makes me really proud! Reaching Barrows Gloves and 70 Defence (70 Attack and Ranged soon as well) means that the Barrows grind is now only 55 Slayer, a Rune Crossbow and some prayer potions away. Can't wait to pull some gear from those chests and start looking like somewhat of a badass. I might even push for 58 slay and get myself a Slayer helm before that, since I love the look of that thing so much and it helps me if I can manage to pull a Jad task to get my first Fire Cape. That's the plan for now!

Thank you for reading again, Burgh checking out <3

Cheers!

So, it was a real pain to grind for this thing during the late hours of the day, but I managed to get this bad boi at 903 KC...

Looking good with the progress so far ^^
Keep it up !

Thanks a lot Purp! Working towards 80 Attack right now, slowly chipping away at levels and quests.

You hardcore players always impress me like crazy. Great stuff!

I can finally show you guys what I've wanted to achieve for a long time: the Twisted Slayer Helmet! I absolutely adore the look of this thing, and it goes so well with my white outfit and the newly obtained Arclight. Starting to look really dangerous


I'll be working towards Broader Fletching now, and I'll try to obtain a Rune Crossbow. After that it's just a matter of making Prayer Pots before I can go grind Barrows! CAN'T WAIT!!!

Thanks btw @Bob, appreciate it Our sole purpose is to push boundaries.

The next update will probably be a bigger one and might take some more time, but do stay tuned!

Cheers!

Soooooo I unlocked Broader Fletching, did 50 (!!!) KC to get my Rune Crossbow from the Crazy Archaeologist in the Wilderness and started doing Barrows today! Within 25 KC, I managed to pull 3 uniques, which is a bit of compensating for my bad luck at Cave Horrors and the Crazy Arch imo. Super happy about it, check it out:


Three beautiful drops, although I'm actually trying to get the Verac's Helm and Plateskirt, the Karil's Top and Skirt, and maybe some more tank gear. We'll see what happens!! Below, you can see the inventory when I logged out today: the property of a very content HCIM  

I love the layout of your blog posts . Congrats on the uniques!!!
