Game Mode: Difference between revisions

{{:Chaos}}

The following game modes aren't enforced in-game, but instead have a list of rules that players who wish to play them choose to follow voluntarily. Different players may play the same game mode slightly differently or may choose to combine multiple to create an even more difficult challenge.

Some people also combine these game modes, for increased difficulty.

{{Main|Reference=Hardcore Combat Only}}

Hardcore Combat Only (often abbreviated to HCCO) is a game mode in which the player creates a {{Icon|Hardcore}} character which completely avoids non-combat skills. All gear and food can only be obtained through combat, so success in this game mode requires careful planning in order to grow stronger without dying, especially due to the lack of passive HP regeneration.

This is pain: A harder start to HCCO, with limitations such as some restricted monsters, and not being able to use the shop or upgrade items.  

Full information is found under [[PainCO]].

12 Bank Slots (often abbreviated as 12B) is a game mode in which players restrict themselves to the starting 12 bank slots and do not purchase more or use {{ItemIcon|Bank Slot Token}}s. Although often combined with Hardcore Combat Only, this game mode can also be played as a regular character.

This game mode can be compared to the UIM challenge on [https://www.runescape.com RuneScape].

Bank Completion (also called Living Bank) is a challenge some people aim for once they start getting into late-game. It's an extension of Item Completion (getting 100% of items in Completion Log), where you have at least one of each item in the bank, effectively requiring you to have {{formatnum:{{#var:totItems}}}} [[Bank Slot|Bank Slots]].

While it is possible in Normal game mode to get enough slots, it is very hard to do so combined with {{Icon|Hardcore}}, due to the {{HardcoreBankMax}} bank slot cap from shop. One would need to farm and use at least {{formatnum:{{#expr:{{#var:totItems}} - {{HardcoreBankMax}}}}}} {{ItemIcon|Bank Slot Token|Bank Slot Tokens}}, preferably after hitting the {{HardcoreBankMax}}-cap.

While often considered as a "more relaxed" version of Combat Only, some people play Combat Drops Only/No Gathering (abbreviated CDO, or NG), where they are only allowed to craft items from resources collected from enemies.

As a note, there is currently no way to level {{Skill|Firemaking}}, as there is no enemy who drops {{ItemIcon|Normal Logs}}.

Shopless (SL) is as simple it sounds, this game mode doesn't allow the usage of the shop. This limits the user to the initial bank slots until slaying God Dungeons, no skill upgrades, and no [[Auto Eat]]. Usually, the player may use {{Icon|Coins|Gold Pieces}} collected to upgrade gear, but there's no purpose to accumulating {{Icon|Slayer Coins}}.

Vegan players don't like to kill animals nor human beings, but allow themselves to kill monsters (because they're evil, apparently), and plants. Nevertheless, they will still pickpocket the humans, in order to distribute the wealth of the rich.

Also called No Combat (NC): Most normal accounts start out as skiller accounts, and some players decide to stick with it. Players in this game mode never touch combat, and just live a peaceful life gathering resources through hard labour.
