Genesis

? I feel like you're pulling my leg :thinking: I'm asking this because I'm not very familiar with the current clan world.

So I'm currently in the process of building my ranged tank and I'm looking at pvp clans to join in the future as a result (on my tank). I had always wanted to join Valhalla but they closed a couple of years ago. I heard most members moved on to another clan called Avalon. This is my first option. Valhalla sounded better imo. My second option is Elite Zerks though I'm not the biggest fan of their name given the fact that I'm a tank. They also do a lot of PvM so I'm scared their focus will be off or split. My final option, as Grumpy pointed out is Evil which has some ex/current WG members in. I've gone ahead and made an account on their forums for the time being. Having said all of that, it will probably take me a while to get the requirements for the clans mentioned. I still need to get base 70 melee stats to start afking NMZ with guthans and I need a bunch of magic levels. For the time being, I will be hanging around all 3 communities every now and then to see which I like the most. I'd like to know everyone's unbiased (stress on unbiased) thoughts on each of the above clans or if you have any other recommendations that I should check out.

Agreed. Big improvement from the initial ones. I hope everyone got their capes because it should be harder now.

Yesssss. Time to kill 700 more chompy birds to complete my elite diary. Let's goooooo.

Fair point and thanks for the heads up but molten glass is twice as afk because you can do 27 per inventory as opposed to 13 (I'm assuming). Also, I've already invested the money into it so I consider it as sort of a sunk cost. Not too fussed about it.

Good stuff. Congratz.

I'm excited for the molten glass interface change. Got 107k molten glass banked for 99 crafting. Should make my life much easier.

Used to. Quit league a while back because I lost interest. I only look at post game discussions on reddit for upsets/unorthodox picks nowadays.

Tool

Oaf

Depends on a lot of different factors such as combat stats, weapon of choice, gear, whether you hit your BGS spec (if you take one) etc. At max stats, after landing a BGS spec, I'd say kills take just about 5 mins or so on average. Having said that, Vet'ion isn't really worth killing unless you have a task, you're an ironman, you want the pet, or you just want to do it for a change in environment. Most other mid-high lvl content gives you more GP/hr with a lot less risk.

[Note: This is an old guide I made in the old forums. Figured it was too good to let go of. Pretty much everything still works as of 04/02/18. Some new best in slots though. Also, since I'm not a member of the clan, I do not have access to the guides section (assuming there is one) so this is the most relevant place I can post it. If it is moved, I will not be able to answer questions as I will likely not have permission to access the thread anymore. If you have questions, feel free to ask me in-game. My current IGN is "Genesis Zero".] Welcome to my solo Vet'ion guide! SOLO GUIDE. This method is a bit difficult to do with more than 1 person without really good coordination due to the way in which the boss aggro works. As far as I'm aware, there are 2 methods to "safespotting" Vet'ion. There's the one that this guide is about which traps him into a spot and you can safely flinch him. Then there's another one which lets you safely kill him without the need to flinch. Unfortunately, I only know how to do the first one. Important terminology: "Flinching" means attack the boss once, then walking into safe range immediately (1 step south in this case). Wait for his health bar to disappear before attacking him again. To begin with, the picture below shows the gear and inventory setup I use. The boss is weak to crush so you're gonna want to use a crush weapon. Now, for the first method, it does not matter how slow your weapon is since you have to flinch the boss anyway so I went with a BGS. Good alternatives for the weapon slot would be an AGS, SGS, Dragon Warhammer, Abyssal Bludgeon or even a verac's flail if you really don't have money. As for the rest of my gear, I take the Dwarven helmet for more crush bonus but you can replace it with a neit for the prayer and strength bonus. Moreover, I use a salve amulet (e) since it gives me a 20% damage bonus. You'd want a piece of jewellery to teleport you out of 30 wildy (safespot is a few steps into 31 wild). In my case, I used a slayer ring. I take 2 super att/str potions and 3 prayer potions. This lasts me about 4 kills since I use 2 doses per kill (1 for purple form, 1 for orange form). As for the rest of my gear, it's pretty self-explanatory. So before we begin, take note of the spot I am standing on in the picture below. This spot shows the line (going east and west) at which Vet'ion loses aggro. It'll be important later. To get to Vet'ion, all you have to do is teleport to corp cave and run straight north. You will see Vet'ion somewhere close to the lava as you run all the way north (he could be a little east of the lava too). Run up to him (not too close) while praying mage. He has 2 main attacks that I am aware of. 1) He'll shoot 3 white lightning bolts that do magic damage (can be avoided by running away from the spot they hit the ground). 2) If you're close to him, he'll slam the ground in an 11x11 square around him and deal (often heavy) damage to players around him THROUGH PRAYER. Once he catches aggro, you're going to want to run south and right under this tree trunk. He'll slowly walk towards you. Once he is around where you can see in the picture below (or a few steps north since he will hit you through prayer if he gets too close), run west immediately but DO NOT CROSS THE LINE I mentioned earlier or he will lose aggro and wander off. If you let him get too close to you, you will be hit (sometimes over 40) and prayer won't help. You're going to want to stick to the south part of this first chunk of rocks as you run west. He'll keep following you. This spot in the picture below is where you're going to want to stop. Then you'll wait for him to get to the rock in the previous picture. After that, run south and he will lose aggro. He has lost his aggro on you in the picture below but he's somewhat stuck (not completely) After you hit him once, he'll automatically move into the proper spot and you can safely flinch him from here. Once you get the first form to about half hp, he will summon 2 skeleton hellhounds (DEFINITELY PRAY MELEE AGAINST THEM). You can kill them past the line mentioned in the second picture of this post and Vet'ion will not attack you. Once you kill them, you can now go back to killing Vet'ion. Once you kill his purple form, he'll turn orange and will have full hp again. VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: If you do not kill him in under 5 minutes in this form, he will transform back to his purple self. However, he will carry on the hp he had when you were killing him in the orange form (if he was 160 hp in orange, he will now be 160 hp in purple). Moreover, if you had already killed the hellhounds in this form, they won't spawn again. At half hp, the orange form will also spawn 2 hellhounds. Kill these then kill the boss. Congratulations, you have successfully learned how to kill Vet'ion! He's a really easy boss but it might take a while to kill him. Be wary of pkers (USUALLY from the north-east side). Fortunately, you can run a few steps south and tele out at 30 wild.

Genesis Zero Tell us about yourself. I started RS well over 10 years ago because my school friends at the time played it. I never really played the game efficiently back then. I used to do things like castle wars and clan wars all the time and my stats were pretty bad (40-50s in non-combats). I started doing a lot of pking towards the end of RS2 (2010-2012) at which point I had been a member of several different clans. The most notable would probably be Last Alliance (small clan of super good pkers - Shark 0wnz, Wtf S7ven, I BH Chris I, etc.) and WG. Eventually quit when EoC came out as RS was no longer the game I enjoyed. Moreover, I was starting my bachelor's so I wanted to place my focus there. I started again about 2 years into oldschool due to the nostalgia. Eventually, I decided to pick up some pking again and joined WG for the good old days. Had my fair share of fun over a period of like 1-2 years in the clan until very recently. My interest in RS has been declining slowly but surely. I left the clan in part due to my lack of interest in the game among other more important reasons which I would not like to mention. However, this clan will always have a special place for me and as long as I play RS, I will definitely be around in one way or another. At this point in time, I have no interest in clanning. Moving on to my irl. Not much to say about me. You can call me Rooz. I'm 22 years old and I'm from Iran. I finished my bachelor's degree in Management of Information Systems with a minor in Supply Chain Management last year. I am applying for a visa to go to the UK (Newcastle University) for my Master's this year. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a visa last year so I missed out on a year. Hopefully, it all goes well this time. If you're interested in anything else, ask me whenever you see me! Clan history. How did you hear about us? I think it was from one of His Lordship's recruitment videos some 6-7 years back. Don't remember though. Do you plan to join? Don't think so. Not anytime in the near future at least. Any last comments?
