well it seems that people want to add ancient warriror armour so the next question we would like to know is...

there are 4 options in the poll each has their pros and cons so keep that in mind.

 

First off, what is Ancient Warriors equipment?

Well it is high tier armour/weapons that gives very good offensive and defensive stats. 

 

The armour and weapons are as followed:

 

 Vesta's equipment - Melee  

 Zuriel's equipment - Mage 

 Statius's equipment - Melee 

 Morrigan's equipment - Ranged 

 

How will we add in ancient warriors equipment if the poll passes? 

If the poll passes will add another poll after that, which asks this exact question again with a few options.

To keep the server balanced we want to make these items very rare and of high value due to the meta change they bring to the server.

We will also only add these items as a drop to some sort of activity wilderness.

 

options:

1) Add to revenants drop table

2) Add to deadmans chest

3) Add to Larrens chest

4) Add a new chest that can only be opened by keys you receive from killing players and or bosses in the wilderness

 

Pros / Cons:

Pros 

• Will increase the activity around the wilderness and make people engage in pking more often.
• Make the server more enjoyable for a lot of players.
• Will create more of a end game goal for many players to work towards.
• Will attract new players who enjoy pking.
• Gives a bigger verity of weapons and armour to chose from.
• Makes more challenging end game content easier for players who struggle with raids etc.
• Good money sink.

 

Cons

• Some players may think that the armour is too overpowered for pvp and pvm.
• Bossing will be easier.
• May devalue some other items in game.

 

As of now we are thinking that equipment should not be degradable unless killed in the wilderness. 

To repair the armour you will need to go to a repair stand.

This repair cost will not come cheap so it is a high risk when using it in pvp situations.

OPTIONAL SECTION OF SURVEY

Please leave comments below regarding:
How you found us (on list, or clicked ad?) Found Boomscape on the Runelocus forums, was looking for a long time, probably a week or so to try and find a server that i would enjoy, probably checked out about 100 rsps's in total but none of them seemed to do it for me.
Reason you joined not listed above: Pretty much i was looking for a server that made me seem like the owners had the interest of the player base in mind. As soon as  i logged in a was very impressed with the home area and the design, i loved the feel and smoothness of the server! Having runelite was a big plus and then once i was high enough level to start bossing i was not disappointed as they actually feel like they are worth the challenge and rewarding too. I also liked the idea of the server not giving you the best in slot gear from the donator store (straight up purchase). This server has a good balance of being grindy but not too grindy where it isnt fun. 
Any other helpful information to be part of the growth in BoomScape: Mainly for now i would just say to aim to get the main pvm content into the game. Tob, Gauntlet, Nightmare and so on. Once they have been added i would suggest pushing very hard on advertising through the likes of rsps youtubers. having consent updates for me is also key so its good to see it happening already.

Thank you! some great tips in here

 

cheers babes

 

Con you utter beauty 

 

First off I'd like to say WELCOME! Glad to see you try out the server! In this guide I'm just going to go through a few things that can get you started with the server!

Before we start I'd like to recommend a few things:

SERVER RULES

DONATOR BENIFITS

Any text I have underlined will take you to a link

1. Make sure to join cc "James" this is the help cc and will be a good way to meet the community.

2. VOTE!! I can't stress this enough. For one it helps the server grow and it also gives you some starter GP and maybe even an amulet of fury or other items if lucky! In game command is ::vote and‚::claim.

3. Make sure to join the Discord. Link: https://discord.gg/boomscape

4. Buying over a certain amount of items from a shop will automatically note them if you don't have enough space in your inventory to carry them. 

5. To see an NPC drop table simple examine it. In the future we will be adding the drop table to the information list in quest tab.

6. Last but not least, remember to have fun!!! The community here is great and I'm sure will be there to help you if a member of staff isn't on at the time!:) Also be prepared to die in the Wildy even if there is only 10 players on at the time. It is the Wildy at the end of the day.

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Points of interest:

 

 

Nexus portal :

• Here you can see all the places you can teleport to.
• Make sure to add your favourite places on the favourite menu.
•  There is a search function on the menu to get to places faster. 

 

Crystal chest : 

• Located just beside the home area teleport or at the north wall just outside of the bank.
• You mostly get Crystal Keys from drops while doing a slayer task or from the appreciation store for 500 points.
• Opening this chest is a good way of getting skilling supplies including high tier bones.
• You can also get Crystal gear too. Crystal bow, Crystal Halberd and Crystal shield.

 

Emblem trader : 

• Located north of the Nexus just before the ditch of the wilderness. Here you can trade in Mysterious emblem. You get bounty hunter points from doing so which can be spent in the shop.
• You can get Mysterious emblems by either Pking or by WILDERNESS SLAYER. Simple use the emblem on him to trade for points.
• You can also use Ancient artefacts on him to get GP.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Combat and XP

Xp rates: 10x Combat xp and 40x skilling xp

Training methods: 

Low level combat: Cow / Chickens / Goblins

Medium level combat: Experiments / Sand crabs / Yaks / Slayer

High level combat: Slayer / Barrows / Nightmare Zone

Best training methods: 

Melee:  Slayer / Fire giants (catacombs) / Sand Crabs / Nightmare zone

Magic: Bursting at Catacombs Dust Devils

Range: Slayer / Fire giants (catacombs) / Sand Crabs / Nightmare zone (Chinchompa's will be the best XP)

Prayer: Alter at home gives the best XP, but to save bones (or lose) try the Chaos alter in the wilderness, here you can unnote bones for a small fee. use at your own risk.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 Making that GP 

Money on this server isn't like most other RSPS's, here you got to put the work in. DON'T expect to make max cash in a matter of days. The grind is real here and we care a lot about our ECO.

There is NO TRADING POST or GRAND EXHANGE. This was decided to create a more in touch community. You actually have to talk to other players to sell items @home, help cc or on discord market place.

There's a good few ways to making GP at lower levels:

THIEVING STALLS: What would a starter money making guide be without talking about thieving! Simple go to the stalls east of the bank starting with the food stall and working your way up - sell to the baker. Keep in mind the fastest xp per hour for thieving is through pickpocketing.

WILDERNESS SLAYER: Krystilia gives out the wilderness slayer tasks, she can be found north east of the home teleport with all the other slayer masters. I'd recommend being at least 40+ combat to start these tasks. Simple collect Mysterious emblems and Larren keys that drop while doing her tasks. If you get a difficult task you can simply get assigned an easier task using Turael, finish that task and go back to Krystilia for a new one (this WILL reset your task streak). You can also simply skip the task for 30 slayer points (This WILL NOT reset your task streak). Buy larren keys with your bounty reward points and use them at the chest in the wilderness. Larrens chest location - SEE HERE. You get supplies and cash from keys.

NPC locations for slayer task- SEE HERE or ask help cc.

REVENANTS: Be prepared to die. Okay so teleport to Revenant caves via the nexus and run east following the passage till you get to revenants. Kill the low level ones e.g Revenant Goblins & Pryefiends  & Imps. Collect the Revenant ether and any other half decent drops. Make sure once you get the Bracelet of Ethereum to charge it with revenant ether to not take damage (this is always lost on death). Ancient emblems once traded into the Emblem trader will give a good amount of GP depending on which tier you get, this is where a good amount of money you make comes from. You can also get the wilderness weapons too, these are also charged via Ether. 

CRYSTAL KEYS: Collect from Slayer, vote boxes or through the Appreciation store. These give supplies which can be sold to other players. They also give crystal gear. This is a good passive money maker. Also free XP!! 

CLUE SCROLLS: You get clue scrolls passively from certain npc's or through puro puro, so be sure to do them once you get them. Same drop table as OSRS but more of a chance to get the Unique items from them. You also get some GP for completing them. Most of the steps are pretty simple. If it is a step that requires you to dig, make sure to dig around a few tiles at area it says it is located. You can only carry one at a time but you can bank them and come back to them later. Good luck on the ranger boots or 3rd age items.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Appreciation Store | Vote Store | Donator Store

*may have changed from last time I updated this guide*

Location -  Home Bank

Apperciation store:

Talk to Brana.

Here you can buy some useful items and cosmetics simple just by playing the game. You can see how many points you have through - Quest list - information.

Importance of items in shop / order to buy (my opinion).

1. Fighter torso 
2. Rada's blessing 
3. Dark light
4. Enhanced crystal keys‚

Vote store:

Talk to Party Pete.

Each vote from each website gives a Vote box, opening 1 box gives a small amount of cash, 5 vote points and sometimes an item - usually crystal keys. The items from the box could be a cosmetic, crystal key, amulet of fury, dharoks or some other wee items.

Importance of items in shop / order to buy (my opinion).

1. Imbued god cape 
2. Rune pouch 
3. Ardougne cloak 4
4. Salve amulet (e)
5. Pretty much whatever else you want after that.

Donator store:

Talk to Wise old man. 

So you enjoy the server, you now think maybe you would like to donate and support this awesome server! well I'm glad to hear it! The money made goes straight into future updates and advertisement.‚

Donating is pretty simple - type ::donate in game then add in the basket how many bonds you want to buy after that go through and buy them. Type ::donated in game and you will now have the Bonds in you inventory. You can either sell these to other players (won't go towards your donator rank) or use them in the donator store via wise old man. 10 Bonds spent = 1 dollar to your total donation rank. 

WE HAVE TRIED TO MAKE THIS SERVER AS LESS PAY 2 WIN as possible, hence why there is no Best in slot direct purchases. However you can buy SUPER MYSTERY BOXES which has a very rare chance at a TWISTED BOW.

I personally like getting Super mystery boxes.

If you haven't got Dexterous prayer scrolls though I'd recommend getting that first. And maybe an Infernal Cape.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SLAYER

Start of your first task either by talking to either Turael or Krystilia (wilderness slayer master).

You get 0 slayer points from completing a task with Turael but thats okay because you won't be using him much at the start. You can use him to skip tasks for free (lose task streak). You can use this function as many times as you want. My favourite tasks to use from him are Goblins, Cows or Rats.

Krystilia is a good way to make GP and farm fast slayer points. Each task from her gives 45 slayer points.

Duradel gives the fastest amount of slayer xp per hour from any slayer master.

Steve is your boss slayer master. REQUIRING 95 slayer. He gives any Boss as a task ranging from 3 to 35 (your choice on how many).

 BLACK MASK 

Buy from other players for around 10M cash. If you don't have the cash or another player isn't selling then simply go get it grind for it yourself.

It provides a player 16.67% Attack and Strength boost against all monsters on the player's current Slayer task.

NPC to kill : Cave horrors

Drop rate : 0.37% - 1/270

Strategy : Use protect from melee, have high prayer bonus and kill using melee or range.

Rather high drop rate, but it is a big step forward in the game and 100% worth getting.

 SLAYER HELM 

Same bonus as the black mask for % increase on task but also has higher defence. It also protects you from certain Slayer NPCs. 

Slayer helm requirements:

• 400 Slayer points
• 55 crafting
• 10 Defence 
• Items needed - Black mask, Facemask, Earmuffs, Nose peg, Spiny helmet, Enchanted gem.‚

You can imbue the Slayer helm via Nightmare Zone for 1,250,000 points / same as OSRS. This will give an additional 15% boost to Range and Magic now along side the Melee boost.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FAQ

• How many points per hour will I get at Nightmare zone?
  Hard to say but it shouldn't take more than 2 hours for 1,000,000 points depending on level.
• Is Fightcave / Inferno one or all rounds? 
  All rounds. Less depending on donator rank. This is to keep the Fire cape and inferno cape an item you don't get straight away as there are very good items.
• Is Gauntlet/TOB/The Nightmare in game?
  No not yet, but will be added in the future once other more priority updates have been added.
• Can I do Wintertotd solo? 
  Yes but I'd recommend having another player help you. If solo mainly try to light only 2 braziers rather than 4.
• Can i get a butler in my POH?
  Yes! make sure to have made a bed or two depending on the butler. Go to Ardy hire from there!
• Will there be a giveaway soon?
  We host regular events. Be sure to check the forums and discord regularly!
• Can I donate with OSRS gp?
  Of course! Message any admin on discord or in game. The rate is 0.4 so 4 bonds per 1m (1 bond = 250k osrs)
• Is Vilix the GOAT?
  YES.

Notes of interest:

95 slayer needed

You DONT need to to be on a slayer Task to kill Alchemical Hydra

You need to be wearing Boots of stone

This fight requires protect from Range and Magic

Recommended stats : 90+Range 

Range only - Blowpipe or better for weapon

Notable drops - Hydra's Claw, Hydra leather, Alchemical hydra heads

Use Hotkeys

_______________________________

Recommended Gear + Inventory

Of course this is just an example of gear (off task). Slayer helm (i) if on task.

Not worth killing if u don't have a Blowpipe, id also recommended buying some rune darts.

               

______________________________________________________________

Before you start your first fight I HIGHLY recommend putting down these Tile Marks to make it easier to lure the Alchemical Hydra to the correct Location to be able to do the proper damage to him.

______________________________________________________________

Few more Important things to know before starting the fight :

He has 4 stages

Stage 1 : Green stage - This is his Normal Stage and u just have to make sure to use the correct prayer.

Stage 2 : Blue stage - This is his Electric Stage the same as the green stage you have to pray the right prayer but also take some damage from his Electric attack.

Stage 3 : Red stage - This is his Fire Stage here he will move to the middle after a certain amount of time and shoot out a line off fire in two directions then another which will follow you and stop after a while.

Stage 4 : Grey stage - This is his Jad Stage and here you will need to cycle from Range to Magic after each attack.

---------------------------

His attacks cycle is pretty simple. Basically he will attack 3 times with RANGE then 3 times with his MAGIC attack.

He will also attack with a poison attack that shoots out an AOE attack, this is very easy to avoid as you just have to move away from the tiles that he has marks.

---------------------------

 This is what his RANGE attack looks like.

 This is what his MAGIC attack looks like.

--------------------------

To DAMAGE Alchemical hydra you will NEED to get him to STAND OVER the correct VENT.

Stage 1 (GREEN) - RED vent. Stage 2 (BLUE) - GREEN vent. Stage 3 (RED) - BLUE vent. 

Stage 4 - He wont need to be on any vent.

Once he is on the vent the liquid spray up at him and he will go "Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" this shows you will now do the correct damage on him till he changes colour.

--------------------------

THE FIGHT

Part 1 - GREEN stage

Start of the fight with protect from range or magic  and Eagle eye/Rigour.

Attack hydra and move to the first tile just EAST of the RED vent.

Once he is on the vent and screams "Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" you will now be doing the correct damage to him.

After 3 range or magic attacks he will use his AOE attack.

Move out of the way and go to the next marked tile and PRAY from MAGIC or RANGE depending on what his attack was before. 

For example it will cycle from 3 Magic to 3 Range to 3 Magic to 3 Range and so on through the rest of the fight tile the Jad stage..

Attack him till he changes to his BLUE stage.

_______________________________________________________

Part 2 - BLUE stage

Now that he is on his BLUE stage move to the next marked tile just north of the GREEN vent.

This will move him onto the GREEN vent, after the liquid comes up he will once again take the full amount of damage.

On his 4th attack he will use his special attack.

Here I like to just TANK the ELECTRICTY as it DOESN'T do much DAMAGE and only STUNS for a SECOND. you can stand on the blue marker tile for the first time he uses his electric attack 

Move to the next marked tile just north of the BLUE vent once you have tanked the electric attack.

Attack till he changes to his RED stage.

______________________________________________________

 

Part 3 - RED stage

As soon as you notice him changing RED quickly run to the next marked tile along.

How to avoid the FIRE

This bit once again is pretty simple he will spray to big lines of FIRE and you just have to stay on the marked tile until he shoots out the fire attack that will chase you.

It will eventually stop but just make sure to run around kind of like how snake on the old phones works lol.

Here is an example of how it works.

Once the FIRE stops start attacking again.

I messed up a bit in this but you can see its not too punishing and it is simple.

________________________________________________

Part 4 - Grey stage

This is the Jad stage.

Simply switch from one protection prayer to the other.

His FIRST attack will usually be a Magic attack but can sometimes be ranged.

After 3 attacks he will Use his AOE attack like how he did in his GREEN stage. Simply just avoid it by running a tiny bit away again.

The best time to change from one protection prayer to the other is when you see the attack coming towards you.

Now time to grind for all the lovely loot! Good luck!

This isn't a end all be all Guide but a good one to get started!

leave a like and a comment for some feedback ,Thank you!

 

Notes of interest:

91 slayer needed

You NEED to be on a hellhound slayer task to kill Cerberus

Most of the fight you will be praying Protect from Missiles

Blowpipe is my preferred main weapon + Crystal Halberd for spec (BIS would be T bow or Scythe)

Recommended stats : 90+attack 90+strength 80+defence (if melee only)

80+range (using blowpipe) and 70+prayer

Notable drops - Primordial Crystal, Pegasian Crystal, Eternal Crystal. all 1/200 give or take. (and smouldering crystal but who wants that right lol!)

Hot keys are worth using here

Make sure the Cerberus Runelite plugin is on

Whip is okay but would recommend blowpipe (ranging) zammy spear - crush (melee)

_______________________________

                              

 On the left is the inventory I use.                                         On the right is the my gear for the fight.

Managing your prayer is very important for fighting Cerberus.

I first start off the fight using my Spec weapon which in this case is a Crystal halberd. Dragon halberd is a Solid 2nd choice.

Use Melee armour that gives good strength bonus. (i like a 4 way switch).

_______________________________

THE FIGHT

Part 1 - the start

Have protect from Magic and piety on before starting the fight, have your prayer book open at this point.

Once the fight has begun after about 1 second of aggro change to Protect from Range and then after another 1 second change to protect from melee then switch back to range till further notice. Use your Special attack while doing this or just wait till after if you are a noob.

Now change to your range Gear or if using melee just put on your main weapon and Dragon defender. 

________________________________________________

Part 2 - aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooooooooooo

At this point you should now be protecting range and have your main gear on. using Piety or Eagle eye/Rigour.

keep your health up here if needed.

Wait till Cerberus goes AAAAAAARRRRRRRRROOOOOO!!! MAKE sure you have OVER 65 prayer points just after he does this!! (more the better).

Once this has happened Cerberus will spawn 3 ghosts ----- Mage one is BLUE ----- range one is GREEN ----- melee one is RED

the order is RANDOM. BUT lucky for you this is were the plugin helps out. It WILL tell you the order of the 3 attacks starting from the left.

To not take damage Protect from the first one you see as soon as it shows up (remember to have over 65 prayer here, you have a few seconds to do this so don't stress).

for Example here we have Magic --> Range --> Melee

So put up protect from Magic then wait till you see the animation of the first ghost attack. Then put up protect from range after that wait about half second then put up protect from Melee. You will know you have done it properly when you haven't taken any 30's as damage.

Also you probably will have run out of prayer as it takes prayer away instead of damage. (30 each hit).

Remember to put your prayer (protect from range and DPS prayer of choice) back up.

___________________________________

 Part 3 - RAAAWWWR XD

This step is simple if he goes Grrrrrrrrr just move two tiles away from the lava on the floor.

AND YES I AM FLEXING MY PET

Thought id introduce myself a bit cause why not, love the community that has been built on this server already!

Well my irl name is Andy and my in game name is Vilix, found this server out of luck and have to say its ben a great experience so far, I'm not normally the one to donate to servers but for me this has ticked the box in many things that I have been looking for from friendly/caring staff to awesome/chill player and all around just a smooth promising experience in the private server scene!

Definitely helping me  through such uncertain and different times these days so,

cheers
