If you know the game then do your iron acc like you want :)
If you don't know the game enough to be sure about how to play iron then don't.
Learn the game before going iron :)


That being said ofc get some decent agility / 99 fm by wt at 10-14 hp. before opening crates get like 60+ in supply skills so rewards are good.
After 99 fm i would assume quest gains even by it's not fun on iron lol ;)

Gl and go hcim ofc but play it like you are okay when/if you die.

I suck at osrs, but when it comes to IM my advice to you is to do w.e you want. I think trying to max efficiency as an IM kinda defeats the purpose.. but to each their own. Best part about Ironman, you do it how you want :)

Tips follow a guide or do your own thing. I winged most of it. Biggest thing dont camp nmz. At the very most get base 60's combat and start grinding slayer like a mad man. Getting herb sack early on is huge so is 70 agility. Get that prayer asap so unlocking ectofuntus is also massive. I would highly suggest getting mid 80s-low 90s minimum in firemaking via wintertodt just because its a easy way to get supplies like magic logs and other quest item reqs. Get 30 mining and hit mlm. If you grind mlm from 30-60 you should have a 100 nuggets or so for second floor. At this point I grinded iron ores in the guild banking via deposit box till I hit 72 mining before I went back to mlm. I cba to do 1st floor mlm its horrid. Other than that gl hf and if you go hcim DD ;-)

Rushing 99fm bank the crates don’t open many obv can open some n try to get the set, rush barrows gloves, get stats to 60 or so and then open crates is what I did

Once you go Iron, you never go back.

Get ready to spend 20+ hours doing something that would take you 10 mins with GE.

Ironman mode has by far been the most rewarding way of playing OSRS that I have experienced. It really is a throwback to back in the day of grinding on your own and getting your own drops.

The number 1 Rule I can give you is play the game the way you want to play it.

You already know to get to Kourend as fast as you can for Wintertodt to 99.

Another member of the community has stated to save your crates until you reach 50-60 in the skills that are rewarded in crates. I agree with this sentiment, I will argue that Wintertodt is also a great way to build a very nice cash stack very quickly along the way.

Complete your minigames ahead of time to assist you throughout the rest of your grind. IE: Trawler, Marks of Grace, Rogues Den, etc.

Getting these pieces of equipment will be such a phenomenal boost along the way


Remember that IronMan is A G R I N D!! Do not get discouraged and remember to take regular breaks. I switch back and forth between my Main and my Iron instead of playing both at the same time. It keeps the game from getting stale.

Also, if you are able to get a clean Snapdragon by way of getting it cleaned on Karamja, keep it on you at all times in case Jekyll comes to you! He will ask for a Guam, unless you already have a clean herb in your inv to give him. This will help get you a super restore ahead of the curve. Or whatever potion you feel you may need early.

Also: Do your random events. Mazes, Quiz Master, etc. It's all free items and exp. Even Rick Turpentine can give you some good shit sometimes.

Hope this helped!
