Topics covered

Gnome Restaurant

  • (0:00) Gnomonkey says in the description that Gnome Restaurant delivery is a fairly decent money maker with low requirements and recommends it for brand new players.
  • (0:00) Gnomonkey needs to grind the restaurant for opals to train Crafting; once Crafting is level 10 he can craft bowstrings and fletch new bows, and hopes for the rarer gnome scarf and gnome goggles.
  • (5:54) About 80 gnome crunchies got Gnomonkey to a high enough Cooking level to start Gnome Restaurant.
  • (5:54) Gnomonkey starts by talking to Gianne Jnr. for a job, after which the customers ask for specific gnome food such as toad crunchies, and he cooks them fresh.
  • (7:25) Cocktail training from the restaurant gives a bunch of dough, which Gnomonkey says is worth about 100 GP and is hard to get.
  • (7:25) Gnomonkey makes his first cocktails (fruit blast, pineapple punch, wizard blizzard and a short green guy), noting they look similar to other gnome foods.
  • (9:26) His first delivery reward was an uncut jade and his second a red topaz; he cannot cut either but is getting close to the opal he wants.
  • (9:26) Gnomonkey notes that a delivery took about five minutes to walk back, making him think it may be better to wait until the Grand Tree quest to do many deliveries.

Gnome cooking

  • (4:18) At level 10 Cooking Gnomonkey can make toad crunchies; a stronghold seller offers potatoes for 1 coin each regardless of stock, which Gnomonkey uses to train Cooking.
  • (4:18) Gnome dishes involve adding dough, preparing/adding ingredients and cooking again; burnt crunchies need to be rebaked.
  • (4:50) Gnome dishes need many ingredients such as frog legs and worms, which Gnomonkey collects using his new Agility levels.
  • (5:22) Gnomonkey notes gnome cooking gives surprisingly a lot of Cooking XP, and that a chocolate bomb is worth over 1k to cook while all ingredients cost about 1 GP each, making it decent low-level money making.

Agility

  • (0:00) Gnomonkey spends about eleven and a half hours training Agility to level 47 at the start of episode 3.
  • (0:28) Gnomonkey says pretty much every random event is useful on this account; he hopes the captain event gives a gold bar needed later for Monkey Madness, as it is his only way of getting one.

Druidic Ritual

  • (1:27) Gnomonkey does Druidic Ritual to unlock Herblore, collecting raw meat within the gnome areas where possible: bear meat and raw rat meat, with only the beef and chicken needing an exception outside the restrictions.
  • (2:22) Completing Druidic Ritual gives Gnomonkey level 3 Herblore, though he is unsure how to get vials for potions.

Gnome and Monkey locked Ironman

  • (1:01) Gnomonkey theorycrafts how to kill the black demon in the Grand Tree quest, saying it is weak to magic but he cannot really get runes, so he expects to use the short bow and arrows.
  • (2:54) Gnomonkey finds a bot or something buying out the arrows, making restocking difficult, and manages to buy about 500.
  • (3:21) Gnomonkey does a maze random event and takes the final reward rather than opening chests.
