In the kingdom of Great Kourend, it’s vital that you not only earn OSRS gold, but also the favor of each house. It already goes without saying that this includes the prominent Piscarillus house. So, you want or need to max your Favours with this house by and of the sea? Then read up, put on your thinking cap, and become, for a lack of a better term, so highly-favored.
What About Piscarilius
Before you go swimming around doing all sorts of stuff for Piscarilius, here are some things you should know. First and foremost, Piscarilius, obviously, is a house mainly composed of fishermen. Other than fishing, they also dabble in the overseas trade.
The Piscarilius House is the house that owns the port where everyone going to Zeah enters. Newcomers, however, shouldn’t expect a friendly welcome, as the Piscarilius house is deeply mired in crime and corruption, so thieves and smuggles run around–and actually run–the place.
Cranes and Fishing
Still, it’s not all bad. After all, you’ll be getting a few perks from Piscarilius if you gain their favor. The good news is that there are countless ways to do that.
The simplest one to accomplish would be by repairing fishing cranes, which rewards with 0.5% Favour each. These are found across Piscarilius House, and they break down on a regular basis. To repair them, you need level 30 Crafting. And by repairing them, the amount of crafting XP that you’ll receive is three times your level. For example, if your crafting level is 30, you’ll receive 90 XP for every crane repaired.
To repair a crane, you need a hammer, nails (preferably mithril), and three planks. In case you need nails, you can always buy iron nails from Leenz.
Another good way to rack up Favour is by helping Frankie collect fresh fish, and subsequently putting them into a cooler. But before you can do so, you will need to have at least 15% Favour, as well as level 15 Fishing. For this particular task, you have to be fast, as the fresh fish disappears into nothing after around a minute. Each fish is worth 0.2% Favour.
Here’s a handy tip: collect fresh fish from the nearby barrel. You can collect around 20 in one go, and even up to 25 if you’re good at it.
Sandworms and Booty
Upon reaching 30% Favour, you can start hunting for Sandworms. For this, you’ll need level 15 in Hunter, a spade, and five buckets, as you’ll be putting the sandworms you catch in them. To start, go to the area north of Tynan’s Fishing Supplies. Each bucket of sandworm collected will earn you 0.2 Favour.
To dig the worms up faster, click “Walk Here” on the square where the sandworms appear, then swiftly click on the spade in your inventory.
Finally, when you get 75% Favour and level 49 in Thieving, you can now go ahead and steal booty from other people’s houses, just like the usual people who run around Piscarilius. To get an assignment, talk to Captain Khaled, who’s in a huge building south-east of the bank. Before going out to steal, make sure you have a lockpick in order to open the drawers.
What you’ll be doing may be a crime, but it certainly pays—a lot! If you succeed in a heist, you’ll not only be getting 2% Favour, but also a few hundred Old School RuneScape gold, 750 Thieving XP for picking the lock and looting the booty, and another Thieving XP that is worth forty times your Thieving level after giving the booty to Captain Khaled. If that isn’t an impressive heist, then I don’t know what is!
Now that you know how to raise your Favour with Piscarilius to a hundred, you can now start putting this knowledge into practice. So what are you waiting for? Go earn those Favours–you deserve it.
