Hello there TMHT zealots! 

 

It's been a long time since the Tip.It's Monster Hunting Team has been active. And recently some of our team members have shown interest in bringing TMHT back to life. I think it's about time we try.

 

 

After much discussion I decided to create an "opportunity event" instead of an organized one.

 

 

Through the following mentioned days I will be hosting the boss events and should enough players participate; The day(s) will be declared as the official TMHT's first comeback event. Should it succeed from that day on I will be hosting 1 event per month until further notice.

The friend chat is named "Comeback" (Since I was unable to write TMHT <.< ). And it can be joined by anyone. 

If you are unable to join the friend chat, private message me (Hokuspokus). The world will be announced 30 minutes before the start of the events. It will be in a Loot/Coin -share world.


27th of December 2015: King Black Dragon. At 19:00 till 01:00 in-game (UK) time.
Tip.It guide: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/King_Black_Dragon_Guide.htm

 

 

28th of December 2015: Kalphite Queen. At 16:00 till 22:00 in-game (UK) time.
Tip.It guide: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/kalphite_queen.htm

 

 

29th of December 2015: Giant Mole. At 18:00 till 00:00 in-game (UK) time.
Tip.It guide: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/mole_hunting.htm

 

 

30th of December 2015: God Wars dungeon. At 17:00 till 23:00 (UK) time.

-The boss will be chosen at the start of the event, based on what bosses the attendees are able to access. Nex wont be hosted.

Tip.It guides;

Armadyl's forces: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/armadyls_eyrie.htm

Bandos' forces: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/bandos_stronghold.htm

Saradomin's forces: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/saradomins_encampment.htm

Zamorak's forces: http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/zamoraks_fortress.htm


Remember to bring your own food & equipment. Make sure to read the guides for the specific bosses if you're unfamiliar with them.* As a safe measure; The basics will be explained in the start of the event just in case.

 

*Please notice that some of the guides are out-dated (but don't worry, the basics haven't changed much), which is another good reason why we should venture there; To update Tip.It's database! ;)

 

 

The goal is to play together, to learn about the boss mechanics and furthermore; To have fun together.  :) 

So this is a great opportunity for those who are tired of spending countless, boring, lonesome hours grinding bosses with a wicked grin face. :blink: 

It's also a fine opportunity for those who are eager to learn the bosses and their mechanics; Even for those old stagers who are already familiar with the same old faces, but seek more methods to refine their skills!  :shades:  

 

 

 

Lastly I just want to say that TMHT is far from over.

 

There's a lot more that TMHT can still do. And I for one can't stand idle to the thought that TMHT truly met it's end, I wish to change that truth.

 

However this isn't something that can be done alone, oh no!

It's true that a lot more can be done alone in the game nowadays than before, but if you ask me; RuneScape is a game which is best enjoyed with other players. And that's the reason I started playing RS in the first place.

 

Hope to see you there and happy holidays everyone!  :^_^: 

 

Edit: The friend chat is named comeback, not owned by the player named "Comeback". Apparently you need to type in "Hokuspokus" to join the friend chat, just noticed this.

You might want to add some timers (pending.me.uk) when times get closer, to help people less familiar with different time zone conversions. And it's your name for the FC, right? I'll see if I can stop by at some on my P2P account and hopefully we can get some loots! ;)

Sounds quite fun, I am curious to see what sort of crowds (if any) it will attract.

Might reference this thread somewhere else more prominent so people other than the TET/TMHT vets will see it.

Thank you for your support everyone, I will try my best to bring TMHT back to life with your help.

 

I also edited the post, to make it clear about the friend chat question and requested a timer for the event. So hopefully everything will go fine and all the attendees will enjoy themselves in the event(s).

 

Regarding the OSRS TMHT events; I asked the same question about 2 years ago, but we had the same issue back then. I haven't logged in to OSRS in quite a while so can't help much on that area unfortunately. Right now my focus is in RS3, but I'm interested in expanding TMHT's territory in several areas, including OSRS. However these are only ideas so far.

If I may; You can view some of the suggestions in the "Comeback" topic: http://forum.tip.it/topic/330420-comeback/ 

There are more suggestions which aren't mentioned there, like the Demon Flash Mobs.

 

Anyhow happy holidays to you all! :)

The King Black Dragon event has ended. With 90 successful killings. There were 4-5 of us for about 2 hours together, then I continued the event till the end alone. Still I think this was a good event. In addition I managed to gather some useful data for the KBD guide which I'll report soon on another thread.

 

Also, remember that we still have 3 more events! So check them out if you're interested. :)

 

Cheers!

The Kalphite Queen event has ended! The majestic queen was taken down 69 times! ;) We were in a 3-4 man team for about 2-3 hours. Then I continued the event alone till another player joined for 7 kills near the end. So in total we were 5 once again. Furthermore, it was really great to have Fire Essling there with us!  =D>

 

At the start, before anyone else got there, a dragon chainbody dropped! And finally, at the very end, a Kalphite Queen's head was dropped; I guess Guthix is watching me from his mossy grave  :rolleyes:.

 
With 2 events completed, our next friend to visit is the Giant mole; If you thought gardening was a piece of cake then think again! We will first explain the tactics & practice with the normal mode version so everyone is prepared for the more challenging, hard-moley-mode!  :ph34r:
 
So bring your gardening boots and trowels! Because we are going down!  :thumbdown:  :shades:

Comeback, you need to type in Hokuspokus (the FC's creator name) to join.

 

Inventory and equipment

 

Here's the Tip.It's guide for the Giant Mole, (however please be aware that the guide requires updating on some parts. However the mentioned basics are pretty well explained there and further information will be provided before, or at the start of the event): http://www.tip.it/runescape/pages/view/mole_hunting.htm

 

Requirements

 

There aren't really any requirements I can think of to enter the Mole Lair, but I'd suggest a minimal combat level of 60 for normal mode. Preferably a minimal combat level of 70 for the hard mode.

 

All you need is the fighting spirit to fight and don't let the mole bite! The more the merrier!  :D

 

PS. If you can help me out with the timezones, I'd appreciate it a lot. Now if you excuse me, I need to get some sleep before the next event xD  -Sleep mode activated- -_-

Well, it was quite a hunt. Especially at one point when we dealt so much damage to the mole that I barely got there before she escaped  :lol:.

 

Damn, I completely forgot that Arceus was there with us! The main reason why the poor giant mole was scared and continuously ran away from us  :D !

 

The Giant mole was killed 52 times in hard mode and 28 times in normal mode; So a total of 80 kills!

 

It was really fun and we were once again 5 in total. I can't remember well when and how many, but for 3 hours there were at least 2 of us there at all times, 4 at one point. After that I soloed the last 2-3 hours. I think this means that TMHT events shouldn't be longer than 3 hours? I think 3 hours will be enough in the future, what do you think?

 

Anyhow, some of us got super growth potions and I managed to receive 2 Dragon 2h Swords! (Seriously, I'm starting to think that Guthix might be stalking me behind his grave...  :uhh:) I haven't had luck in ages and now these rare drops are haunting me hahah.

 

I decided to post all my data from all the events after the final event, and as soon as I get the energy to do so.

 

 

About tomorrow's event: Saradomin will not be hosted, because today we made a checklist which bosses the attendees were able to access. So we still have 3 choices: Armadyl, Bandos, Zamorak. I was planning to decide it 30 minutes before the event, so be prepared for any of these 3!

 

I'm heading right now for a quick solo train, (or well.. I'm probably going to be a training bag for them) because I haven't checked the bosses since their update. I'm not sure if I'm able to create a timer in time for the GWD event, should had done them in time..  #-o

 

Anyhow, God Wars Dungeon is the last TMHT event of the year, so come check it out! ;)

 

Edited, since my brain forgot a few things.

Okay, so I just killed Graardor 3 times and Kril 2 times, so got the hang of the strategy quite well.

I haven't tried Kree'Ara because I lagged more there, not sure why, maybe because the avianses have a more complicated graphic design since they are flying?

 

But I think we should go with either General Graardor or Kril'Tsutsaroth since their mechanics are pretty simple and generally easy bosses to team up against.

 

 

Bandos' Stronghold:

-Bring good food, sharks at least to help you keep your health as close to maximum. 

-Minimal Dragon or Barrows gear would be my suggestion. 

-I'd say either melee or magic should be used, ranged is probably the weakest for this boss since General Graardor deals melee damage so rangers would most likely take more damage.

-The minions are nothing to worry about really, they are nowhere near as hard as they used to be.

 

There's no need to panic with ol' good Graardor, since he doesn't hit that much in 1 go, I'd be more worried if he was wielding a weapon!  :D

 

 

For Zamorak's Fortress:

-The main concern will be prayer & hit points for lower levels.

-Bring good food, sharks at least. And minimal Dragon or Barrows gear would be my suggestion. Keep your health as close to maximum since Kril's special attack* deals a lot of damage around 500 in Legacy mode.

-Don't bother praying at the altar before getting there, since once you cross the bridge to the stronghold, your prayer points are drained to 0 automatically. Once across your prayer points wont be drained (like in the Abyss), however Kril's special attack does drain some of your prayer points.*

-Always keep your hitpoints as near to maximum as possible, for lower levels this may be a greater concern since their max hp is naturally lower, so consider obtaining the bonfire hp bonus (throw logs at a bonfire) to receive a 4,5% hp boost to your maximum hitpoints, for 36 minutes. It's not much, but in the end it might just save you from a dire situation.

 

*This attack is of concern since it deals a lot more damage compared to General Graardor and also drains some of your prayer points;

Kril'Tsutsaroth first ascends a to the air, yelling: "Yeaaargh!" (or something like that) and comes down with his slicing scimitars to hit you around 500 damage (in Legacy mode) 

 

 

I'll see if I can get a timer up before the event, in addition: I had no idea how easy these bosses are nowadays! I'm thinking on completely updating the Zamorak's Fortress guide, in addition to correct some parts of the Bandos' Stronghold guide. However these plans will probably take place in a month or two, and assuming no one else is already working on this.

Alright! 

 

That was the best God Wars Dungeon event I had ever attended or hosted! And the results, (from my point of view) were amazing!

 

 

At the first part: Poor ol' General Graardor was slain 139 times! With the combined teamwork of team A-wesome (Arceus, Fire Essling, Hokuspokus, Uimamies) and B-ravo team (Bondye & guthix qupla)!
 
Unfortunately, there were so many corpses and the loot was dropping constantly, that I didn't manage to identify what rare item was dropped and coin-shared. 
 
 
Afterwards, we went all together as a whole team for 40 K'ril kills and we obtained a garb of subjugation drop, but unfortunately it was a "shard-shared" drop. :boohoo:
 
After 3 hours of fighting, the team decided to finally take a break after so much fun together. However, I decided to stay for 1 more K'ril kill; Soloed him and got a hood of subjugation drop. :)
Then I took a break and came back to personally say hello to General Graardor, killing him 14 times.
 
 
After some time, guthix qupla came back to re-join the battle and the two of us killed Graardor: 84 times! (We actually accidentally extended the duration of the event by 2 hours without even noticing it). :D
guthix qupla received (Bandos) Godsword shard 2. And I received (Bandos) God Sword Shards 1 & 3 afterwards.
 
So in total, during the whole event (+ the 2 extra hours) this brings us to 237 General Graardor kills & 41 K'ril Tsutsaroth kills!
 
I think we succeeded really well with this event! Great job everyone! =D>
 
As for the new year; I hope to see Tip.It's Monster Hunting Team fully functional; Ready to assault the halls of the Gods once again! We shall vanquish the once feared Corporeal Beast, bring judgement upon the Barrows Brothers! And much more.
Any beast who stands in our way, shall fear the name of TMHT!  ;)
 
Oh and I wish you all a happy new year in advance; Happy new year!   |^_^|
 
Cheers!

That was a lot of fun - thanks so much for having me!

 

If you didn't have a chance to attend this event, you definitely don't want to miss the next one, so hopefully we'll all slay more gods and other bosses in the new year! ;)

Damn, I totally forgot about this =C. Had the intention to come along, but I was caught up with other stuff.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?~ Marianne Williamson

It's ok, not everyone can always make it there. :)

 

I am planning another event currently, hopefully I'll get it prepared before the end of the next week. I suggest keeping your eyes on the forums in case you might miss something of interest to you in the next week ;).

Where have I been!? Good on you MRTF! I'm so late on seeing this..Sadly it stopped at January. ;-;

 

I pretty much solo-hosted until March: http://forum.tip.it/topic/332318-tmht-march-2016-3-event-day/

 

Sadly I couldn't go on, my life still isn't good enough that I could focus on RS at all. In addition I'm studying and working at the same time, so I have very little free time. I rarely come to Tip.It these days, usually only when I receive notifications via e-mail (like your post for example).

 

If I ever manage to solve my life and get a good grasp of it, I will definitely try to host more TMHT events if possible. Until then don't give up hope TMHT!  :shades:
