Hardcore mode is a Game Mode that can be chosen when creating a new character. There is no way to change a character from one game mode to another after creation. Hardcore characters are deleted upon Death and also have several penalties that apply while playing:

  • Hitpoints do not passively regenerate
  • The Bank is limited to a maximum of 108 slots - 12 slots are available initially and a further 96 can be purchased from the Shop. Players can gain additional slots to exceed this limit, either permanently through the use of Bank Slot Tokens, or temporarily while the Pillar of Generosity is active.
  • The Combat Triangle penalties for using the combat style that is weak against the current enemy are increased.

How to not die

Nobody likes to lose a character to a simple mistake. This section lists a number of things to look out for in order to not die.

  • Use Can I Idle and Combat Simulator to see if you are safe in a fight. Combat Simulator is especially useful in the lategame, where there are more factors at play.
  • Always check the amount of vital resources before going away. Food, food autoswap, DR prayers, potions, summons.
  • Disable AutoSlayer if you don't intend to use it. It is especially important for the Master Slayer tasks.
