Section 0: Setup/General notes

After Tempoross grind, boat back to Al-Kharid
If you did not get any sapphire necklaces from Tempoross caskets, craft up to 10 of them
If you also did not get any gold bars, don't craft any at this time and skip going to Mage Bank for now
If you need to get 22 Crafting to make necklaces:
Turn in Dwarf Cannon for Crafting XP (bring Nulodion's Notes & Ammo mould)
Cut any uncut sapphires you have
Craft tiaras from any silver bars from caskets
Do NOT cut opals/jades/red topazes yet as you will break a lot of them

This will likely also get at least 90 Firemaking. You can stay until 99 if you want
Fletch as little or as much as you want. Fletching will slow down wc xp gained
If you solo, this will get extra Construction XP
Open the crates at 60 woodcutting, using full inv trick to get extra rolls from each crate

If you did not get any games necklaces earlier, don't worry about turning in cats
[Diary] Kourend/Kebos Medium: Subdue the Wintertodt

Use supplies from Temp/Todt to get 27 Crafting, craft a sapphire amulet and enchant into Amulet of Magic
2C. Lava Dragons & Wilderness tasks
Buy 7500 casts of fire strike (82500 gp), kill lava dragons for bones.
Starting at 13 Magic, using all of these casts gets about 53 Magic
Buy extra casts if needed. Each kill should be ~75-100 casts. With tome it's ~50-75 casts each
Without looting bag, only try for 10 kills per trip. With bag go for 15-20
Prioritize other loot to put in looting bag, keep bones in inventory
If you are attacked at Lava Dragon Isle, bury the bones in your inventory
Each bone is effectively 595 prayer xp at Chaos altar or 340 XP buried on Lava Dragon Isle.
If you get 40 Prayer, completing Recruitment Drive, Priest in Peril, and Holy Grail will get you 43
40 Prayer takes 61 bones at Chaos altar
43 Prayer takes 85 bones at Chaos altar
If you get these drops, keep at least one: Rune axe, rune kiteshield, rune full helm, lava battlestaff
Alch the rest (use mind bomb to boost)
If PKers become an issue:
Option 1: Run big bones from Boneyard to Chaos altar to 40+ prayer
Option 2: Skip this section altogether (HCIMs may want to consider this)
Getting overheads now is just for convenience
First quest that "needs" overheads is Monkey Madness I (much later into the guide)

Unblock Black demons after MM2, reblock after obtaining 4 Zenyte shards

(Optional) Get Master wand too
Refer to GotR section for runes needed
Go to Wizard's Guild and buy mystic top, bottom, and hat
Get 80 Magic, complete Mage Arena I and II (HCIMs can just do the first one)
I recommend bursting jellies in Catacombs, otherwise MM1 dungeon is fine
Complete Song of the Elves (full steel set, red/purple dye, mourner gear, gas mask, silk, runite bar,
8 limestone bricks, tbox, rope, nature rune, flowers or irit, adamant chainbody, wine of zamorak,
cabbage, black knife/dagger, cadantine seed, seed dibber, vial of water, p&m, hammer, saw,
pickaxe, axe, spade, best obtainable magic gear, nightshades, blood blitz runes)
Use blood blitz on Fragment on Seren. Should not need brews. Nightshade method guarantees this
Obtain a Bow of Faerdhinen and full Crystal armour from Corrupted Gauntlet
If struggling to get completions, recommended to train Ranged by:
1. Hunting red chins north of Prifddinas and train with those
Unlock MM2 tunnels for this
2. AFKing ammonite crabs on Fossil Island with iron/steel knives/darts or bone cbow
Going on rate for 1 enhanced seed (400 kc) gives a lot of supplies/gp which will help get 82 smith/craft
These are boostable reqs
If you get a 2nd enhanced weapon seed before 6 armour seeds, highly recommended to make blade too
Yes, you need to get the Crystal helm. There are plenty of places to use Bofa off slayer tasks
This is the end of the main guide
Topics not covered:
Hunting Implings
Rushing Hunter can bypass other item reqs e.g. magic logs, glory but isn't very reliable
Hunting eclectics is the best way to get medium clues though
Obtaining Xeric's talisman
Option 1: Complete Kourend/Kebos Easy Diary, kill lizardmen for Shayzien favour
Option 2: After unlocking Fairy Rings, thieve chests in Lizardman Lair
Not included in this guide since most of Zeah is sparsely visited
Obtaining Arclight
Train slayer in Zeah Catacombs where applicable and add 3 ancient shards to Darklight
Lovakengj, Piscarilius, and Shayzien favour
Lovakengj: Make juniper charcoal to get 65% favour (overnight), Forsaken Tower, minecart scrolls
Piscarilus: Hunt sandworms
Shayzien: Heal soldiers to 5%, kill lizardmen until Xeric's talisman, tackle organized crime to 86%,
obtain Shayzien Armour 5 to get 100%
Kingdom of Miscellania
Prereq quests are easy, fund this with gp obtained from Gauntlet. Not needed prior imo
If you have gp to spare after blackjacking feel free to throw some in
Barbarian Fishing
Helps with early Agility & Strength XP but not necessary. I prefer Tempoross and its rewards
43 Prayer without Wilderness
Use Iban's on Blue dragons in Taverley. Get overheads prior to MM1 unless you're very confident
Rushing 70 Agility helps but not required. Don't bother collecting hides
83 Construction + semi-max POH
Mahogany Homes via teaks obtained from Kingdom
93 Crafting for Zenytes
Buy a lot of buckets, mine a lot of sand, farm a lot of seaweed, superglass make
92 Mining for Amethyst
Mine as much sand as you'll need for 93 Crafting first, then pick your favorite option below:
1. Motherlode Mine (semi-afk, very easy, Falador Hard Diary req)
2. Blast Mine (click intensive but great way to get runite ore. Use dynamite from CoX/diary reward)
3. Volcanic Mine (semi-click intensive, very fast XP once you get solo method down, chance of d pick)
4. Powermining granite in Quarry or iron in Mining Guild (fastest but yields no ores)
Don't forget you also need 90 Fletching to make amethyst darts. Buy broad arrows for this
Dwarf quest line
Only worth doing if you want quest cape. Just start The Giant Dwarf for Keldagrim
Farming XP from Forgettable Tale not worth the effort since release of The Garden of Death
Myreque quest line
Morytania has a lot of great self-contained content, such as Sepulchre and ToB
There isn't anything locked behind these quests that is beneficial for rushing SotE
Rag & Bone Man I and II
Only worth doing if you want quest cape
Can wait until high level and having more teleports to get this out of the way quickly
Tears of Guthix
Helps train low level stats but not required for other quests
King's Ransom
Not needed until after 70 Prayer. By then it shouldn't be an issue to complete Knight Waves
A Kingdom Divided
Unlock this once you can kill bosses where it is appropriate to use thralls (e.g. Zulrah)
Dragon Slayer II
Rushing this is a great way to get 70 Prayer via Myth's Guild green dragons
Monkey Madness II
Getting bofa first makes this a piece of cake and demonic gorillas will be much easier to kill
Could start the quest to unlock tunnels to train Magic and Ranged
Lunar questline & spellbook
Incredibly useful to have but not technically required for rushing SotE.
After Dream Mentor, unlock imbues at NMZ
Don't make glass without Superglass make
Obtaining a Dragon pickaxe
As of February 2023, I would recommend killing KQ while trying for KQ head for Desert Hard Diary
Even after KQ head this is among the fastest ways to obtain one, especially with partisan
If you don't get d pick from KQ prior to head, move to one of the three solo-scale Wildy bosses
For HCIMs, Volcanic Mine is the "safest" way but not very fast, plus it would cost 2.5m gp to repair it
Prior to 92 Mining it's not super important to have a d pick, but it is a significant upgrade over rune
Barrows
Not worth it imo, runes come from GotR and armour has substitutes
Only do this if you have POH portal and Morytania Hard diary
Killing Zulrah
Recommended to get bofa + armour first. Thralls help too
Otherwise use blood blitz for diary kill
Killing lizardman shamans
Bofa with Shayzien armour works, blowpipe would be faster though, even with adamant darts
PvM Progresion after Gauntlet, Zulrah, DWH, and Trident
Get useful drops from Slayer creatures & bosses asap and prioritize:
1. Get Dex from CoX (solo recommended), unlock rigour
2. Get all uniques from Graardor
3. Get Zamorakian spear from Kril, convert to hasta
4. Get Osmumten's fang from ToA (solo recommended)
5. Get Avernic defender from ToB
6a. Get Ancestral robes from CoX
6b. Get Tumeken's shadow from ToA
6c. Get Twisted bow from CoX
7. Get everything else from GWD including Nex
That's just my idea, no perfect order for this
