Ultimate OSRS – Monkey Madness 2 Quest Guide

 Monkey Madness 2 can be a lengthy quest in OSRS, though it offers up some neat rewards.

 


If you are attempting the OSRS Monkey Madness 2 quest on a search for OSRS gold and glory, then there is a lot you will need to know. Following on from the previous Monkey Madness quest, Glough has gone missing and King Namode needs you, and again enlists your help. This is a very long quest, so there is a lot you need to know before we get started.

Monkey Madness Quest Requirements

Starting with Monkey Madness quest requirements, you will need to have completed the Eyes of Glouphrie, Recipe for Disaster, Enlightened Journey, Troll Stronghold, and Watchtower. As for your skills, you will need 55 Agility, 70 Crafting, 60 Hunter, 69 Slayer, and 55 Thieving.

There are also several OSRS items that you will need to finish the quest. These include Food, Lemons, Grapes, Energy Potions, Prayer Potions, Summer Pies, Weapons, Armour, Pestle and Mortar. There are also monkey items including the Monkeyspeak Amulet, Monkey GreeGree, and the Monkey Talisman.

Chapter 1

To kick off the quest, go and speak to Narnode Shareen, who tells you Glough has escaped. Then head to Glough’s house to the south-east of the Grand Tree and climb the ladder. Climb up the tree and investigate the tree branch, which will give you an embroidered handkerchief.

Speak to the wife Anita at the north-west staircase of the Gnome Stronghold. Ask her what’s wrong as she is upset. Her fears are that Glough is seeing another woman. Offer to help her as Glough may be in trouble. She tells you of whispering that she couldn’t reach higher in the house. So go back to Glough’s house and climb the tree a couple of times. Check out the gnome statue which will have a hidden switch. In the cupboard you will find the OSRS book of spyology, so read through it to find a spycraft encrypted document. Go over to the crates to the north-west to get a brush. Then check the fire remains to find a mysterious note. To decipher the note, you need to use Pestle and Mortar on your lemon. Then use the nearby lit candle on the note, and use your Pestle and Mortar on grapes to apply to the brush. Use this brush now on the note to make a scrawled note.

The note is written in an ancient Gnome language. Use your translation book on the note and return it to the king. He will tell you to go back to Anita to translate it. Read the now translated note and head back to the king. Assistant Le Smith apparently helped Glough escape according to the note. With that information go to the south of Glough’s tree and speak to Assistant Lori. This assistant is the replacement for Le Smith and tells you to ask Auguste what happened. Use the balloon to get to Entrana and speak to Auguste. You will be informed that Le Smith was lost trying to get to Ape Atoll. Go back to King Narnode who will tell you to talk to Garkor in Ape Atoll.

Chapter 2

Once you reach Ape Atoll, go to the north of the island. Over to the east, you will find speak to Garkor. You will be told to speak with King Awowogei, so do so. You will be informed that he only speaks to Kruk, SO go back to Garkor. Your next task is to kill Kruk so you can make a GreeGree to use as a disguise. Go to the hill near the main gate and you will spot some monkey archers. You will be able to talk to one of them, so ask where Kruk is. You will be told to track him from the bottom of the hill, so head down until you find tracks. Follow them all the way to a trapdoor, then open it to enter the dungeon.

You can find Kruk near the handholds from the entrance. Be careful, however, as there is an entire dungeon in front of you to get to him. There are two different ways of approaching the dungeon. You can either use your agility, which would mean you should be about 70 Agility to attempt it, or you can Tank your way through. For the latter method, you will need a slashing weapon and a pickaxe.

Agility Route - Old School RuneScape

If you are going for the agility method, then head south then east. Make sure you stick to the flat parts of the ground, as the parts covered in an X will see you fall into a trap. Keep going until you come to a full room of tricky ground. Your goal is to reach the eastern door. Follow the path to the chest to get the bronze key. Use this on the northern door and continue to the northern end of the cave. Go down the corridor to the west to find Kruk’s lair.

Tanking Route

You will notice that the tanking route makes the dungeon look straight forward. However, there are enemies to deal with here. Look out for monkey archers and make your way through by slashing webs. You will know whether or not you are heading the wrong way if you come across a web that is too strong to slash. Your goal is to find a set of chests that will open to find a combat damaged key. This is then used to open a door to progress. You will then find a number of traps that can be disabled. This is only temporary so be careful.

Kruk

Keep going west and you will find three maniacal monkeys. The path then splits left and right, both ways have dodgy ground to contend with. Once you reach Kruk, you will have to avoid a number of melee attacks. Use your stamina potions to help you avoid the attacks and retaliate with melee in kind. Once he is down, take his paw and make your way out.

Your next task is to make a Kruk Monkey GreeGree. You will need a Monkey Talisman and the paw to do so. Next, its time to head through the tunnel from the first Old School Runescape Monkey Madness quest. Go to Zooknock and get the monkey GreeGree made for you. Head out of the dungeon and go back to Awowogei. You will be told that the monkeys are using the Gu’Tanoth Ogres and the Troll Stronghold generals to plan an attack. Speak to Garkor to start the next chapter.

Chapter 3

Use teleport to Trollheim and go into the Troll Stronghold. From the entrance go down and left to find the room with Kob. You will need to fight Kob until he gives up, after which you need to talk to Kob again. Once you have done so, got to Gu’Tanoth and keep heading left until you see Keef. Once again you will need to defeat this character, and Protect from Melee comes in handy here.

Afterward, speak to Garkor then talk to Assistant Lee Smith on the top of the Ape Atoll buildings. His locations vary from the top of the jail to top of the main gate, on the building west of the rune stall, and the top of the broken building. After speaking to Garkor again go to the west and speak to the monkey guard to go to an airship platform. Go through the maze and try not to get spotted by the ninja monkeys here. Find the six satchels and pick them up, after which you will need to fill them with explosives. Go to the east, then find and climb the green ladder. From here go southwest and go down the blue ladder to find the satchels. Go back to the ground floor then climb the cyan ladder.

Go down the red ladder next and go along the path to get the explosives. Clicking the barrel will fill all of the satchels, so do so and go back up the red ladder. Head down and use a satchel on the floorboards here. Then go back to the ground floor and place a satchel on the eastern beams. Use the green ladder again on the ground floor and head across the vines. Go north and put a satchel on the weakened floorboards.

Then you need to go back to the green ladder on the middle floor to reach the top floor. Head down to the gas container and use a satchel on it. After that, go make it to the ground floor and head back towards the boat. Just to the west of the entrance, you will see support beams, so use a satchel on it. Go back to the boat and then speak to Grankor, before heading back to Kruk’s dungeon.

Head north and equip the Kruk GreeGree, then use the monkey bars. Then go through the passage that goes into Glough’s laboratory. You will see a stunted demonic gorilla, so climb on it then go down the stairs. You might need to use Protect from Melee again here to get past the gorillas here. Afterward, use the holding area to get off the stunted demonic gorilla and look for a chisel and hammer in the nearby boxes.

Your next task is to head upstairs and mess with the device at the top. Use your chisel on the charged onyx before using the deconstructed onyx over on the device you have just found. Now you need to investigate the incubation chamber, after which you can talk to Garkor. He will tell you to go speak to Awowogei and state that the trolls and ogres have backtracked on the alliance, which will frustrate him and force him to cancel the assault. Tell Garkor this news which will trigger a cutscene, which shows Glough going ahead with the plans to attack.

Chapter 4

Head back to King Narnode Shareen and let him know that the Gnome Stronghold is going to be attacked. You will be told to ask the aid of Nieve, who can be found near the stronghold Slayer cave. Ask for her help and she will agree. By going around the stronghold, you will notice that tortured gorillas will be around, so be careful.

Let the king know and you will be informed that the 10th Squad will handle business whilst you and Nieve go and find Glough at the crash site. From there, go to the grand tree and head northwest to speak to Garkor. Head through the crash site to find the cavern, and be wary of the tortured gorillas outside.

Final Chapter

Make your way through the cavern and take on the demonic and tortured gorillas within. Glough will then drink his mutagen which transforms him. Nieve will be knocked away trying to stop him and will be crushed by a boulder. This leaves you to deal with Glough by yourself, and you will need to fight him within three different caverns.

In the first room, you can safely spot Glough so do so until he moves into the next room. When he enters the second room, try and lure him back to the first. Go along the north wall and you will find a safe spot to attack him with ranged and magic. Go into the final room and then use Protect from Melee if you are attacking from close range. If you are attacking from a distance, then try using Protect from Magic.

After you have beaten Glough, you will be teleported out of the collapsing cavern. Explain to Zooknock that Nieve died in battle, after which you will be teleported to King Narnode. Inform the king that Glough has been slain and the rest of his minions are trapped in the collapsed cavern. You will be told that he’d received a message to say that Awowogei has set up a peace offering between the mainland and the Ape Atoll, which he will accept.

That’s it! You have completed the OSRS Monkey Madness 2 quest. This is one of the longer quests in the game, and it is challenging. But you can expect to receive 4 quest points, plus plentiful Slayer, Agility, Thieving, and Hunter XP. You will also have access to the Crash Site Caverns if you wish to venture there.

Top OSRS Bosses to earn OSRS Gold

OSRS - Bosses That Can Make You Rich

There are many bosses in OSRS, but there are some than can bag you a lot more gold than others. 


There are a number of bosses within Old School Runescape that could potentially make you rich. If you are on the hunt for OSRS Gold, then you may want to check out the following list of bosses that could bank you a lot of money. There are several different bosses throughout the popular MMO title, but some are more profitable than others. With that in mind, here are the bosses you should consider fighting in the quest for gold.

General Graador

Whilst this maybe the boss who earns a lesser amount compared to others on the list, there is still a decent profit to be made. You can find the General in the God Wars Dungeon, and if you are able to do it solo, you could earn up to a million OSRS Gold per hour.

This might not be possible solo for some players, so you may need to bring a team with you. Doing so will however eat heavily into the profits that you make. Whatever you decide to do, be sure to take a decent set of gear with you, and train your stats high. The plan of action is to make sure to collect all of the drops from Graador. This is because there is potential for the General to drop the Bandos Chestplate ofr Bandos Tassets. By doing so, you could earn up to 20 million OSRS Gold per hour.

Venenatis

From this spider-like creature, you can expect to make a million Old School Runescape gold per hour, as with General Graador. The difference is, however, that Venenatis is much easier to kill. The problem is, getting to Venenatis is a difficult task, since its located in the wilderness, where it is easy for a player to come along and halt your progress.

Once you do find her, you can expect there to be regular drops, which is another downside compared to the General, since there are no rare drops for you to get your hands on. Having said that, you can take her on solo rather easily. If you have Karil's set, then you should have no problem taking her down by yourself.

Giant Mole

The Giant Mole will also net you a million per hour, but what sets it apart here is how easy it is to beat. In fact, you will only need medium tier weapons and armour to be the mole, and you can do it rather easily at lower levels.

You can find the Giant Mole beneath the Falador Garden and the drops are consistent so you won't need any luck here. The fact that its located near the bank is also helpful, as you can get the highest amount of OSRS Gold per hour because of the number of trips you could make.

Zilyana

Now we are moving on up when it comes to the Old School RS gold we make per hour. Zilyana isn't as easy as the previous bosses, but you can expect to make over 2 million OSRS Gold per hour. To overcome her, you are going to need high gear and stats, especially if you want to beat her solo. As with the General we discussed earlier, you could consider taking a team with you, but it will take away from the profits you make.

Perhaps more importantly, the drops that Zilyana produces are very rare and can net you up to 40 million Old School Runescape Gold per drop, so it's definitely worth your time taking her on.

Cerberus

Players who take on the Cerberus could make slightly more per hour than Zilyana, with the range coming in between 2-3 million per hour. To get this kill though, you are going to once again need to have high skills and armour.

To take on this super boss, you will need to have either a Cerberus boss task or have a hellhound Slayer task. Regardless of your approach, you should make at the very least 2 million Old School Runescape Gold per hour.

Dagannoth Kings

Shifting back to easier bosses, the Dagannoth Kings shouldn't cause you too much of an issue, and you get you up to 3 million Old School Runescape Gold per hour for slaying them. Altogether, you have Dagannoth Rex, Dagannoth Supreme, and Dagannoth Prime. There are different ways to kill each boss, which is something to keep in mind.

If you can get your combat stats up to 80, then you should have no problem taking them on by yourself. You will have to adjust your combat style for each, but that isn't too difficult a task, considering they are rather easy bosses to defeat by yourself. This also means that there is more chance for you to make the most amount of Old School RS gold since you won't be needing a team in order to defeat them.

Vorkath

The best on the list has to be Vorkath, who is considered to be the best singular boss in the game for making money. With the exception of Raid bosses, Vorkath is your best bet for moneymaking when it comes to fighting bosses.

In order to take on the dragon boss, you will need to have completed the Dragon Slayer 2 quest. By fighting Vorkath, you can earn up to 5 million Old School RS Gold per hour, and has a number of decent drops that you can make a packet from. With the Dragon Bones and Dragonhides being dropped, you will get around 64k in drops alone.

The bosses on this list are your best bet for earning or farming OSRS Gold. Some are more difficult than others, and you may have to sacrifice how much you earn by teaming up with others. Nevertheless, you will stand to make a lot of Old School RS gold per hour when you fight against these bosses. Get yourself to a high enough combat level, equip your best gear, and you will be rich in no time.

Have you fought any of these bosses in OSRS? Let us know in the comments section below!

Path to Max Level: PoE Leveling Tips

PoE Leveling tips

 So you’re a new player and you’re already in a rush to enjoy the endgame content but it is taking you too long to get capped! Perhaps you simply want to level up your new character in a way that’s much faster than the first, even if it costs you an arm and a leg in terms of PoE currency. Luckily for you, we’re here. For that, check out these PoE leveling guides on how you can grind your exile faster!

Beginning With the Process in Mind

In a lot of MMORPGs, you start out with the endgame build guide in mind. Even at level 1, you’ll already choose the skills that will get you the necessary endgame skills. Plus, you save up as much as possible for endgame gear and use the most affordable gear possible, provided that your PoE leveling speed doesn’t suffer because you’re a cheapskate!

In Path of Exile, your approach will be different. Rather than going right off the bat for endgame skills, you should channel your focus on PoE leveling skills in the meantime. Since active skills are in the form of skill gems rather than innate skills that are obtained by spending a finite amount of skill points, you don’t have to worry about making an irreversible mistake.

Preferably, go for AoE spells. Since you’ll be killing multiple targets at once as you reap lots of EXP really quick.

Also, you’ll have to get the gear specifically dedicated to Path of Exile leveling process if you want a much shorter time to speed up your leveling. You’ll have to go through a PoE trade for some of them, but trust us when we say that they’re absolutely worth it.

Popular examples of these are the following:

·         Tabula Rasa (body) – you get a body armor with six colorless sockets and links, allowing you to use a wide variety of skill combinations for your leveling items needs.

·         Boots with high movement speed – the higher the movement speed, the better the boots. Movement speed matters because the time you spend going from one point to another will be cut short, which means fast leveling.

·         Atziri’s Foible (amulet) – this piece of PoE Uniques give you an 80-100% mana regeneration rate, allowing you to spam spells and kill mobs faster. Also, stat requirements for gear get reduced.

The Pen and Some Rewriting

Among these, however, the PoE unique weapon called Poet’s Pen is probably the most recommended gear when it comes to Path of Exile leveling. They trigger on hit, all gems socketed on them, and a lot of players have been getting creative on what skill gem to use.

Perhaps the most brilliant use of the Poet’s Pen is by equipping two of them and giving each one a specific set of skill gems. Socket Volatile Dead, Concentrated Effect, and Elemental Focus on one, Unearth, Greater Mulitple Projectiles, and Bodyswap.

One of the pens will alternately activate Unearth and Bodyswap, which will cause you to move automatically, while Volatile Dead and its support skill gems will deal massive AoE damage type.

Since you’ll be using specific leveling gear and skill gems, you need to have the appropriate attributes for them. Unfortunately, this means you’ll have to reset your passive skill tree later on. But that’s okay since you get a free skill tree to reset anyway!                                                     

More is Not Faster

While all these things will help you level up faster, you also have to know how to use them properly. That’s why it’s not enough to kill everything you see on sight—don’t be trigger happy! In fact, contrary to the usual more kills = more EXP logic, it’s actually counter-intuitive to kill every mob you lay eyes on.

Rather than indiscriminately killing every monster you see, it’s better to target only enemies that are in groups or blue mobs. This way, you level up at a faster rate and spend less time on worthless mobs.

With these PoE leveling tips, we hope that you get to the max level really quickly so you can enjoy the endgame content you’ve been itching for. So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to get started right now!

Best Ways for Beginners to Earn OSRS Gold

Earn OSRS gold

One of the key features of Old School Runescape is how you can make OSRS Gold. To do this, there are many methods for you to choose from. Whilst there are some higher-level ways of turning a hefty profit, today we will be looking at some of the best ways to farm for gold for beginners.

The methods on this list will vary in how much Old School RS gold they will net you, but what's more important is that they are ways of farming gold with low-level requirements. This effectively means that you can gain access to them rather easily, though they can still pull in a decent profit. They may be more straightforward ways of farming OSRS gold, yet they will be easy for you to use from earlier stages than later methods.

1. Emerald Necklace Enchants - Level 2

This is a pretty self-explanatory method, to be honest. You will be required to purchase Emerald Necklaces form the Grand Exchange, before enchanting them and selling them on. However, to do this you will need to have level 27 Magic, level 2 Enchant Spell, as well as Air Runes and Cosmic Runes.

Once you are ready, you will want to check what the difference is between an Emerald Necklace and a Binging Necklace. After you have done this, you will get a better idea of just how much profit you can make. Thankfully, the necklaces that are required don't cost much to make, so you can make a large amount whilst gaining experience at the same time.

The margin ranges usually between 200 and 400, meaning that by making 1000 an hour you could net yourself 200,000 - 400,000 OSRS Gold per hour. That depends on if you can enchant this many within that time, and also what the margin is at the Grand Exchange.

2. Ultracompost

Ultracompost is the most valuable form of compost in OSRS, so naturally, it can turn a profit if used correctly. To do so, you are going to want to have unlocked Fossil Island, and have Level 22 Mining to get the best out of this method.

The requirements above should take you to Fossil Island, where you can mine Volcanic Ash. Once you have done so, you can then combine it with Supercompost, which can be bought from the Grand Exchange. By combining the two, you will then get Ultracompost. This can then be sold on the GE for profit, or you could simply purchase Volcanic Ash without having to go to Fossil Island. This way however will cost you more, though it will save you time from mining.

How much profit you make is decided on which way of selling gold Ultracompost you choose. If you have the Runescape gold to spend, then you could save a lot of time by simply buying the items at the GE, which will earn you 132 OSRS Gold for each Ultracompost sold. However, if you choose to farm the Volcanic Ash, you could earn double this amount. This could bring in profits of anywhere to 250,000 - 500,000 RS Gold per hour.

3. Elemental Staves

To take advantage of Elemental Staves, you will want to look into price comparisons of the available staff. Because there is a variety of prices, you can use this to make a profit. Before doing so, it strongly recommended that you have a Teleportation Ring to speed up the process. You will also be required to be at Construction Level 42.

First off, you will want to build a house. Then, head out and purchase the cheapest staves before heading back to your home. In your house, you will then want to build a Crystal Ball, and convert your stacked staves that you bought earlier. You can then sell these at the GE, though there are a few variables in terms of how much profit you will actually make.

This ultimately depends on the price difference between the staves. Depending on your travel situation, and the price differences at the Grand Exchange, you can earn anywhere from 375,000 to 700,000 RS3 Gold per hour.

 4. Javelins

The practice of using Javelins to earn Runescape gold differs slightly from the other methods. Here, you will want to find a certain NPC to give you a better price on them. Firstly, you will want to head to the Grand Exchange. Here, you should purchase plenty of Adamant and Rune Javelins. From here, head over to the Void Knight's Outpost.

Once you have arrived, go to the Void Knights Squire NPC, and sell up to 100 Javelins to them. You are going to want to change worlds after this and repeat since the buying OSRS price does eventually decrease. The profit is decided on how many Javelins are for sale at the GE, and how fast you can sell them. Typically per hour, you should be looking to make 400,000 - 1,000,000 Old School RS Gold.

5. Death Runes

Purchasing Death Runes from the Mage of Zamorak is the highest profitable method of farming OSRS gold with low-level requirements. You are going to need some gold upfront, however, though the more you have the more profit you are looking to make. The Abyss OSRS quest will also need to have been finished before you try this. Heading to the Mage isn't without its dangers either, so be sure to stack up on health items before you do so.

Head over to the Mage, who can be found at the Altar of Zamrok, and the Souther Wilderness mining site. You should then purchase Death Runes from the Mage, then head back to the GE to sell them. Like with the previous method, changing worlds and repeating the process will bag you a lot more profit, though keep in mind you will need to make sure that you have enough OldSchool Runescape gold to do so.

You can buy up to 250 of the Death Runes, which are priced at 195 gold. These then sell on the GE for 220 gold. If you purchase 250 Runes on 100 worlds, this will increase to 625 gold. This depends on the GE price of gold, which is sometimes all the way up to 275 gold in a single world. If that's the case, then you could make up to 2,000,000 gold per hour, assuming that is where the price of Death Runes is at.

These five methods are a great way for beginners to farm or buy OSRS Gold. There are more profitable measures that have higher level requirements, but for the time being you can use these five ways to net yourself a lot of profit from a relatively early stage.

Have you tried these methods in OSRS? Let us know in the comments section below!

Life Begins at 60: Things to Do in WoW Classic at Max Level


WoW Classic Level 60

WoW Classic is all about bringing the game back to its 2004 state. That means a time before easy WoW Classic level boosts so new players or long-time players with new characters can just skip the grind. In turn, that means the road to reach level 60 is going to be a challenge again.  

To give those who are either completely new to World of Warcraft or have forgotten the perks of getting to hit level 60 a bit of motivation, here are the content and activities you should do when you reach that level cap.   

From WoW Classic Adventurer to Fighter  

 
You can choose not to engage in PVP throughout your entire career as an adventurer in Azeroth, but where’s the fun in that? After all, it’s natural for gamers to get competitive, and even those that prefer PVE over PVP get that urge once in a while.  

And while you can start duking it out with other players as early as your late twenties, you won’t reach latter ranks unless you’re capped. As for World PVP, it’s generally safer to be at level 60 in WOW when you do. Plus, it’s sadistically funny to take out players that are ten levels below you or even half your level.  

If the fun and competitiveness aren’t good enough for you to get hooked to this kind of content, then maybe the rewards will. From PVP trinkets to Epic weapons, you’ll definitely want to get your hands on these. Trust us, they’re worth killing for.  

Perfect, This Mount in WoW Classic 


For a lot of players, collecting mounts is a popular endeavor. And while you can do this quite early on, you won’t get to access much content until you’re at level 60 in WoW Classic. That aside, a lot of them can only be used at that level as well anyway. That’s why the perfect time to spend much time getting rides is once you’re level-capped.  

The best place to start with Epic mounts is those you can buy with WoW Classic Gold. Save for the Undead, which only has two, each race has three mounts. There’s a different kind o steed for every race, so hopefully, you like it.  

If they’re not exactly what you want your ride or die to be, then there are always those that are dropped by bosses. Lots of them are dropped by bosses, and you won’t even be able to encounter them in the first place if you’re under-leveled, so you still need to be at level 60 in Classic WOW anyway.  

Good examples of these would be the Swift Razzashi Raptor, the Swift Zulian Tiger, and last but definitely not least, the fabled Deathcharger. And if you’re part of the Alliance, why not get your hands on the Winterspring Frostsaber? It’s a cool cat that will get you feeling like the Priestess of the Moon, especially if you’re a Night Elf.  

Time for Mastery  

 
To some people, getting to level 60 in World of Warcraft Classic means they’re finally done with the “boring” kind of grinding, and that it’s time to move on to raids and other equally exciting content. But to some, this is the perfect time to take care of the last few areas that are better off perfected: spell and ability ranks. 

While a lot of warcraft classic players manage anyway without getting them maxed, it’s better that you do. And once you have, it’s time to check your rotations once again, as many of their cast times and cooldowns have likely changed. If they did, then your rotations will have to be adjusted.  

All of these are just the tip of the iceberg, or rather, the Frozen Throne. There are lots of other things you can do at level 60 in Classic WoW. Nevertheless, these are the best things to start with once you get to the top. So if you didn't reach the level cap, about time you do.

Where to Salute Deadpool's Pants in Fortnite

Fortnite Deadpool pants
CREDIT: EPIC GAMES

And where to find his shorts as well

Everybody thought the Merc in the Mask challenges ended with the Yacht Party. However, Week 9 challenges proved them wrong. Turns out, our favorite mercenary of chaos is in a heap of laundry trouble. His hideout had been flooding for a while now, and he's running out of clothes. Players are tasked to find and salute Deadpool's pants, wherever they may be. Also, they have to find his shorts as well, due to the mentioned laundry problem.

The reward for completing these challenges is the X-Force Fortnite items skin. That's an alternate color scheme for the Deadpool skin. From red and black, the X-Force skin makes it black and white. That makes it resemble the merc's costume when he joined the eponymous team.

Without further ado, here are the locations of Deadpool's pants, as well as his shorts!

Deadpool Pants Locations

The first discovered location is the top of Hotel 23 in Sweaty Sands. On the roof of the tallest building in the resort, you'll find the pants tied to a flagpole and fluttering in the breeze. Walk up to it and do the salute emote, and you're done!

If you don't have the emote because you missed the chance to get it, clicking on the prompt that appears should make you do the emote. So don't worry and salute those pants.

Now, there are alternative places where you can find these pants. Say the storm already covered Sweaty Sands, you can still do the challenge at these other places.

●        C6 - Slurp Keg on the roof of the factory at Slurpy Swamp

●        E4: On the roof of The Agency

●        H1: Right in front of the Yacht

●        H4: Roof of the biggest warehouse in Dirty Docks

●        G7: At the summit of Mount Kay

Explore the island because there may be other undiscovered locations as well!

Where Are His Shorts?

You don't have to scour the whole island for the shorts. They're not there. What you need to do is visit Midas in the Agent's menu. You'll find Deadpool's shorts draped on the armchair that's behind the agent. Yup, his shorts are in the main menu, and not in the Battle Royale island. Tricky, isn't it?

Enjoy Your X-Force Skin!

Completing these two challenges should unlock the X-Force Fortnite items alternate coloration of the Deadpool skin. They're not likely to be available in the Fortnite item shop later, so take the opportunity to grab it! These challenges make it easy to wonder why Deadpool didn't just string up some lines to hang his laundry on. For that matter, why were his shorts in Midas's room?

As you ponder on the scandalous nature of that last question, continue enjoying Fortnite! This time of quarantines and lockdowns is hard on all of us, even to game developers. We'll get through this, and hopefully, we'll get back the earlier quality of updates we've had.

Until then, have fun. Stay at home, stay safe, and wash your hands frequently.

Start Your OSRS Mobile the Right Way

How to get started playing OSRS Mobile

Take your Gielinor adventures anywhere (within your home) with OSRS Mobile. Here's what you need to prepare for installation, as well as some worthwhile beginner activities to do. Have fun adventuring, skilling, leveling, or farming OSRS gold!

Device Requirements


The OSRS Mobile app requires Android 5 and above or iOS 10 and above. Its store page requires 6.7MB on Android devices and 118MB on Apple ones. However, free up at least 1 or 2 GB on your device storage, as the app may download additional files upon first opening it.

Generally, a majority of the current-gen phones will be enough to play the app. Some at the lower end may have a little trouble. Lowering or changing the settings of the game will make it smoother on those. Since the app is optimized for phones, it may not work as well for tablets. Sometimes it may not appear in the app stores of that device.

The game has an FAQ that lists the devices that have a problem with running the game. Please check it to see if your device is on the list.

Some Settings to Set


Get the most out of your device's battery life by using or changing these settings.

Lower your phone screen's brightness. It's one of the biggest drains on the battery charge. If you don't have to look so much or see what's happening in the game, dim it to prolong your phone's life.

Close apps running in the background. Even if you've pressed the home button, apps don't close. If they don't close, they're still using up the battery charge. Exit them by using the task manager to close them completely.

Use a battery saving mode. This is a setting most newer phones have. They optimize battery usage by restricting some apps from running in the background. It also manipulates some settings that eat up the battery.

Turn off the network setting you're not using. If you're using WiFi, turn off data. If you're using data, turn off WiFi. They use up charges by searching for a signal. Turn them off to keep them from leeching power from the battery.

Starting the Game


Now that you've downloaded the game, it's time to play! There are many things to do in Gielinor. But first, you should choose what you want to do. Certain servers (also called worlds) have special restrictions to challenge their players. Some are members only, others are PvP worlds, and a special few are for annual/seasonal game modes.

At any rate, whichever world you choose, you'll start out in Tutorial Island. Create your character avatar carefully, since it can be costly to change later. An NPC on the island called Paul can give restrictions on your account if you choose to.

Choosing to do so is choosing the 'Ironman Mode' where you cannot trade with other players or use the Grand Exchange. Some might choose to go a step further (Ultimate Ironman) and choose to restrict banking. Another variation, Hardcore Ironman, is when players only have one life. If they die, they get booted to Standard Ironman.

If you mistakenly or accidentally imposed those restrictions on yourself, talk to Adam in Lumbridge. He'll let you downgrade to an easier mode of play, albeit with a 7-day delay.

Other than that, you have the freedom to choose what to do! You can explore Gielinor, complete quests, challenge others in PvP, hunt all kinds of monsters, or choose calmer pursuits. Examples of calmer pursuits are farming, mixing potions, crafting or constructing things, and even fishing! Get used to the basics, and soon you can start farming OSRS gold. It'll open more doors as you gain more, from allowing you to buy better equipment to buying bonds. 

The world of Gielinor is open, all you have to do is enter it. Have fun!
