Initially you will start with a {{ItemIcon|Bronze Sword}} and 10 {{ItemIcon|Shrimp}}, these should be enough to get you through the early levels on {{MonsterIcon|Chicken|Chickens}} or possibly {{MonsterIcon|Cow|Cows}}.  Following this, and possibly with some food remaining, you should aim to work towards getting some armour and maybe a better weapon.  At this point you probably need more bank spaces so invest in your first 8.  Reminder, after this you may only buy them in 10s.

Now, what you need is to simultaneously train your stats, better your gear, and increase your bank space so that you can safely combat the {{MonsterIcon|Sweaty Monster}}.  This monster will be your food source for a long time, and can drop 18 different items, so it is likely you will need to buy 20 bank slots, get used to killing stuff for tiny GP drops.

==History==
Masochism mode was first developed by Gnome (previously Gnome#9828), initially as a way to hugely extend the time spent in the early and mid game, and as a panacea to the way Thieving is unlocked so early in Adventure mode. Since then, it has evolved only slightly, with modifications to the above rules and skill order, to better facilitate a community-driven game mode. Changes to the game mode are frequently discussed in the Adventure Mode Chat on the Discord server, and many changes have come through via community decision.

==New Game+==
Only to be attempted after a player has purchased a Max Cape, and collected all items available in the base game, in a regular Masochism play through.
As this is an extension of Masochism mode, all previous rules will still apply.  However, three additional rules will also now apply, each one more brutal than the last.
===Additional Rules===
# Absolutely no mods are allowed in this challenge.
# You cannot skip armour sets; you must collect, and equip, every available (as per currently unlocked skills) piece of each set before beginning to equip the next (where we define "the next" by level requirements).  This means you must equip, at least once, every piece of available Bronze and Iron armour, before you may equip any items of Steel, etc).  This does not apply to weapons, capes, or jewellery.
# You may not kill any new target without first collecting, at least, one of every item dropped by every previous target in that combat area, in order - if they drop a chest, this also includes every standard item found within that chest.  This also applies to dungeons; you may not attempt a new dungeon until you have received every item available from every available previous dungeon, in order.  This does not apply to pets as they are not a drop.
===Notes===
Rule three does not exclude Potatoes.
Rule three does not exclude the Infernal Stronghold; it does however exclude the Miolite Caves.
If you get a Slayer Task for a monster in the Farmlands, other than Plants, you are allowed to complete that task, but must not kill any more than required.
