| The subreddit began as a small project, listing a few guides to help starting ironman players out, on how to train their skills. However over time this small project started growing to the stage where I had to make a decision. Either stick with the very basic guides, or expand them. I decided to expand it to a wiki size, meaning once this enormous project is completed, one can find all the info regarding F2P ironman mode. Of course expanding this project means it will take much longer to complete, as less than a handfull of people are occasionally adding information to it. Currently the basic guides are available for public view, the bigger works for the wiki are happening behind the scenes, which only a few people have access to. Perhaps when the wiki gets to a certain, presentable stage, it might be opened for public access.
To give a clear idea how big of a project this is, you will be able to find the following:
- In-depth xp list for all skills and every single item.
- A complete list of items that are or were obtainable by F2Pim, since October 2014.
With a seperate page of more info for each individual item, listing how it could/could've been obtained, when it was released, which monster has the highest drop chance for that specific item, high alch value, shop value, in which quests/skills/activities it is used, etc...
- All monsters which are located in the F2P area, with a full drop list and drop rate for each item.
- XP rates for all three combat styles.
- Bossing tactics/tips etc.
- Full quest guides
- Daily challenge tips
- Full list of who and when F2Pim got a 99/120/200M
- F2Pim completionist list - for who wishes to "complete" F2P
- Achievement tasks
And do the same thing again, but make it Skiller friendly.
To avoid doing double the work, I'll direct link guides on here to the subreddit, for the people that are not familiar on how Reddit works. Keep in mind that these are still the basic guides and not the full in-depth ones.
Skills
Other
The other guides I will add another time, I need to update them first, as they are quite outdated.

| WOW! It's so detailed, I love it! I've subscribed on my new Reddit account  How long did writing all that take you? - -deleted-:
Just a few minor corrections which can be implimented: - Drop-down menus' at the top cover part of your clan's banner - You seemed to have spelt 'Gud Raider Shield' wrong on the raids guide - The 'note' on the first page also overlaps the side-menu - In the woodcutting guide, the dwarven stout boost should be mentioned for all other smith-able hatchets - Line spacing in some guides are a bit tight, so maybe adding a few more s might help, also in the fishing guide the " Level 1-20 Fishing" text is on the same line as the previous, might help to move that down by a few. - In the smithing guide, the number of iron ores required has the decimal dot rather than a comma, which would make more sense (same for the mining guide) - You can also mention the use of Divine bronze rocks for early mining training as an option. - You can also mention that the quest "beneath Cursed Tides" gives an xp lamp worth 10k xp can be put into prayer. - In the magic guide; Troll brutes are in fact weak to air spells rather than the arrows mentioned. - In the magic guide; only one of the sub-headers are in bold - In the magic and melee guide; only the cockroach soldier can drop rune square shields and scimitars. - In the table for Catablepons in the ranged guide, the data after the name is shifted back by 1 square, which also pushed out the location. - You have refereed to gauntlets as gloves in the gear guide (which isn't that much of a big deal, but might be a good thing to change later on) - In the gear guide, you have put Caitlyn's staff / Tower Mindspike in the wrong cell. I would also suggest adding the bow alternatives to the throwing knives for early levels since it may not be convenient to smith so much ammo for the quick levels. - Might be a good idea to add dual wield melee weapons into the weapons table later on. - In the daily challenges section, you should probably mention that the higher level combat challenges can be completed via killing KBD, Mole, or various dungeoneering monsters. Whoa I ended up writing a big list myself, must have gotten a bit carried away lol Feel free to change/add what you need to, and edit out what you've already done from this comment 
Love your gear guide btw, it's really good! Good luck with the guides!

| Frostin that is totally awesome! Really comprehensive! I can see this becoming the standard manual for all F2P Irons to refer to.
Might be just an idea to mention that it's specifically aimed at RS3 F2p ironman modes though; I know OSRS has a strong Ironman community, and of course they have 'Ultimate Ironman' in addition to regular and HCIM. |

| Thanks Mase, it took me roughly 14 weeks to put the whole thing together, with the coding included. The coding bit is what took so long as this was completely new for me. - Quote :
- Drop-down menus' at the top cover part of your clan's banner, The 'note' on the first page also overlaps the side-menu
This is displaying fine on my screen...so idk :p Thanks for that list of typo's/improvements I'll add these in when I have the time. - Quote :

That's what I was aiming for Tree  As for the rs3 bit, I'm going to add a Rules section pretty soon where will be noted that OSRS posts are not allowed. Ty for the heads up though. Keep the feedback coming it's highly appreciated! |

| As some of you might remember, I created a subreddit roughly 6 months ago called r/F2PIronman. The initial goal of this subreddit was to have all information regarding F2PIM listed on it. Still plan to do this, but, it requires a lot more work than I first anticipated and thus I'd like to know if there are some people interested in helping complete it. What I've done so far is moved the post guides into a WIKI section for easier navigation, a design overhaul, matching RuneScape's theme, added quest guides, made some things more in-depth etc. What still has to be done is completing the monster and item database. The plan is to have all the monsters that can be found in F2P listed on there, which I already did, but their missing additional information, such as; - Accurate XP/hr rates - Best items dropped - GP/hr - Their location - Which monster is best to train at at a certain level and more. The Item Database, which I'm still adding items to, still lacks; - obtained through... - level requirements and more. You get the idea. :p As you can tell this is just too much work for one person and will obviously take way to long to complete. Anyone that is interested in helping me fill these databases in, or know someone who is, let me know here or give me a pm in-game. I will have to add you to the Mod team on Reddit in order for you to see the WIKI, as it's currently hidden from public view. Thanks in advance. www.reddit.com/r/F2Pironman |

www.reddit.com/r/F2Pironman All the best on that Frostin. The RS research side of things isn't something that I feel particularly drawn to myself, not enough to allocate some of my limited free time to it at least, so I'll pass on that. I do hope you get the assistance you need from others though; it's a worthwhile project. |

- Just leaving a link here as an update and again, if you know someone who is interested lemme know
Will do. Do feel free to pop into FC now and then to ask yourself too. You'll find you have a smiley there currently by the way, being a winner in the Free Player's 'where is it?' competition. |

| Updated the first post, gave it a cleaner overview, and easier to navigate for those that aren't familiar with Reddit. |

| Updated the best in-slot item list.
A direct link to the list has also been added in the first post. |
