Why RuneScape’s Hardest Challenge FAILED (OSRS) 

What scares me is we all play a game so old that we're now the target demographic for hair loss treatment

Watching woox go to the GE to flex the cape with a massive grin is one of my rs memories

Just realized how it's kinda weird you unlock the best melee cape by ranging a boss xD

Woox is a god at the game. I had absolutely no doubt he would be the first to complete it after the ridiculous challenges he had already done in the past.

"but he died on the lowest wave out of everyone else" >reached wave 33 >a friend and rigondeaux reached wave 31...

Imagine if imbued God capes were locked behind the Inferno still, good Lord. MA2 sucks, but at least it doesn't make me want to hit my head off my desk

Watching Woox’s reaction to his infernal cape victory can make anyones day better

It always feels weird seeing updates that never were. Like that blender boss is a nightmare.

Just wanna point out a slight correction, going by the list you showed of streamers who tested the Inferno, DedWilson wasn’t the one who completed the least amount of waves during that test. The list shows that DedWilson made it to wave 33 while Rigondeaux only made it to wave 31.

This is how the fight kiln is in rs3 sorta, you sacrifice a fire cape to go and you get a mage Melle or ranged cape depending on what style you use or an onyx for further completion so you needed to do at least do it three times

As a player of osrs since the very beginning and someone who has followed the game very closely since then.. it's weird to think that i'm getting NOSTALGIC over some of osrs' history lmao, it's just.. Ironic because When the game first came out I was playing purely for the sake of that nostalgic feeling from 2006. It's insane how far this game has actually come since its release and how the playerbase evolved over the years, i'm happy to be a part of it and even if i'm taking a break, i'll always come back to it

As a balding man that started at age 16 (now 27), I disliked this video just because keeps is a scam and it preys on men who have compromised self-worth. I love you and your videos but I can't like a video sponsored by this company.

Woox was destined to be the first. It was just a matter of how quick he would get it. Taking into account the difficulty of Zuk it is amazing (but not surprising) that he managed to do it so quickly! Absolute God!

Seeing people racing to complete the inferno is what ultimately sparked my interest in the game. Finally gave into my friend and created an account here am all these years later.

Hi Colonello! I wondered if you happened to come across whole VOD's of streamers learning inferno on the days of release during your research?

I'm just surprised or amazed you didn't mention any similarity or even inspiration from the Fight Kiln in rs2-3 it's just like that since it was also released like 5 years before the inferno

pretty cool info. somehow you keep finding new interesting video ideas I'm always impressed!

sounds like the initial fight caves expansion is similar to rs3's version

He’s trailer park boys clip is gold, us Canadians thank you.

4:26 for Mod Ash’s derpness

Literally no one going to talk about Mod Ash's face at @4:25

Dude, I never knew any of this. I was incarcerated during the first years of OSRS and never got to experience all this confusion and debate. Fascinating, dude. Thank you. Edit: Jeez, I know they were “borrowing” the idea from the fight kiln, but they HAD to make the three capes look almost EXACTLY like the ones in rs3!? Sheesh!

That transition to the sponsor seriously cracked me up more than it should've :')

11:21 that graphic shows a friend and rigondeux died at wave 31. How is 33 lower than 31 lol

"DedWilson died on the lowest wave" Afriend: "Am I a joke to you?" I'm willing to overlook this because of that Boaty clip of him dying to a 0 then 73 LMAO

"Waa I don't want to kill Jad2 three times." "Let's add pets to every single fucking boss."

12:22 those dms... uh oh

How fitting that woox won. Good for him.

That ad transition was so smooth

Great video man! It was like going a trip down memory lane! Haha. I think a dope video idea would be a Chambers of Xeric release date content. Specifically how wrong people were like gear, strats, etc. Could be pretty funny haha.

@11:08 wow, 3 Chads! She must have practiced for months to handle that DPS! I hope they filmed it.

Loved the "wanna buy a box?" reference in the sponsor message!

Getting my Mobile Only Fire Cape is my biggest achievement...

Damn those capes looked like shite

inferno has the same exact problem. fight caves: ranged challenge that gives melee cape inferno: ranged challenge that gives melee cape.

The T pose Jad should be in the game.

Woox lives in all of our hearts.

Love you Woox! I want that freaking irl cape.

Quality video. Man I had no idea of the hype behind the inferno. Then again, I didn’t start playing again until the end of 2017. Such a cool release for the game and we need a new Toughest challenge!

incredible video all the way up until the end bro! just ended so abruptly

The way woox jumped up on that stage lol well deserved

I’m so glad it was a streamer that beat the challenge first

its a good thing the ranged and mage capes weren't added to inferno because then it would just be elder kiln recycled from rs3. pay fire cape 3 times to earn then best in slot capes for each combat style.

Hi, Colonello, This is a reminder that you put out great videos; I love your commentary, and to keep up the quality, informative content you continue to entertain us with. That's all, enjoy your day.

What video editing software are you using? Your edits look amazing!

I loved how Woox immediately went to the GE to flex

That ad transition was "chef's kiss", loved it.

The question's saying that Mor Ul Rek aka TzHaar city was released with the inferno? What did the city look like back in 2005? Surely it wasn't just the fight cave

This was an *excellent* video. Really tremendously done and very interesting.

there was a private server i played on for a while and their inferno removes all the waves before jad, the difference is, its not 3 jads on the 2nd last wave... you had to fight 6 jads (with healers active from the start) at the same time and then the zuc phase was double spawn rate, and the pillar moved faster so you had to keep pace a lot more... i think only 3-4 or so people of 800~ active players had earned it in the 8-9 months it had existed before i quit, and to this day i havent seen a harder piece of content from runescape/servers

Is that music near the end from prepare to cry?

5:44 can someone please tell me how to get OSRS to look like this in this frame? It looks completely different here

Getting an inferno cape always lingers in the back of my head.. But then I remember three jads

The Midnight is such a great band loved the Nocturnal poster!

thumbs up for Jim Lahey

I had done fight caves on RS3 but doing it on OSRS was a completely different beast. RS3 it's honestly pretty easy. Sure you have to manage resources to some degree but EOC makes older content just far too easy. OSRS it was an actual challenge. I did 3 fake test runs to kinda get a feel for it and practiced my single tick prayer flicking during that before I went for my first real attempt. I made it to Jad, then died. I got it my 2nd go around but still. Sure I was using melee. Still need to challenge myself a bit and that's a great way to do it. It's much harder on OSRS then it is RS3. Hell even over half the players on Leagues abusing the Mage relic aren't able to get it done until they hit T7 or T8. It's very true though. Your first run through the caves is by FAR one of the hardest things you'll do in Runescape. But after that it just seems way too easy. You know how to predict waves or at least go onto the wiki that handholds that for you. You know where to go, how to strategize, etc; much of the challenge in caves comes with the fact you dont really experience anything like it before the fact. Not the fact its absurdly difficult in of itself.

I wish this video could be sent to every popular content creator today who condemns and disregards the polling system that OSRS has for its life abided by. THIS is why community consultation and feedback and devs LISTENING to their player base, and not just the popular few, has seen our game flourish into what it is. If you could send this to the likes of 9rain and J1mmy I'd appreciate it. It's not perfect, but damn it has made this game what it is and I'm so glad that Jagex has honoured this since day one. Is it easy? F**k no, is anything easy worth doing? I think the subject of this video answers that question quite well. Cheers Colo I know this is a fairly old vid but keep doing what you do dude.

The Lahey edit absolutely killed me lmao

you can honestly tell when jagex dose something the player base actually wants in the polls no doubt

Doing monkey madness 1 for the first time rn and it's the hardest quest I've done so far lmao

That clip of lahey was editing gold. subbed.

so how did it fail?

The design of zuk and the fight gives me oldschool video game vibes

Keeps is an awesome company and it's a good thing that allows those who don't have health insurance to affordably ($15-20) talk to a doctor and get a Finasteride prescription. But PLEASE if you're under 21, hell, most doctors would say wait until 25... But especially if you're under 21. Be VERY careful with Finasteride. Puberty doesn't end until 25-26, and until that point any hormonal changes may impact, and permanently alter, your epigenome and cause lasting estrogenic effects as serious as permanent gynecomastia(if one remains on Finasteride after noticing reaction) or severe "performance" issues that may be permanent (again, if you don't immediately stop taking the medicine). It's an incredible medication that will most certainly save your hair, but just be mindful about its side effects, and please for the love of God, don't lie about your age inorder to purchase them. That cautionary restriction is there for a reason.

I like how players didn't like the T-pose blender design in a game where everything looks like a kid drew it in MS Paint.

Skill specs was probably not happy torvesta one upped him there 😭

The Inferno was worth waiting for, thanks for downvoting the bad updates prior

You could make a whole video just about Woox and his gamerboy super powers

The original version of the obsidian armor looked pretty nice

Who was the second and third player?

I hope they have a new bis mage cape from the wildy with waves of revenants instead of tzhaar

2:10: Isn’t that just RS3 Fight Kiln and the TokHaar capes?

Damn, Woox really deserved all of it tho

OG inferno boss looking like the dungeon keeper demon.

Idk why Jad 2 wasn't called Dad

I wonder if there will ever be a 3rd cape, Magma Cape?

Woox is a beast at the game. None better

I was there that day woox got his capee 🎉❤

That trailer park boys meme really got me! I almost spit out my drink

Iuseknife was here..a tad late but here none the less.

Dont invite Woox and he still world first.....but they did give him his max membership , i beleive its some rodiculos amount of time but not lifetime....he would surely be passed away

the link isn't there

im glad woox wasnt invited to try the inferno , he wouldve completed it before it came out and jagex wouldve added 6 jads on wave 68 XD

The 3 cape idea being in rs3 now lmaooo

I got to jad then failed on jad. Tzkul Zuk? You mean the osrs version of Tzehaar Zuk in rs3.

11:22 two people in that screenshot died on 31 and wilson died on 33? He didnt quite die on the lowest then

Lol, the original idea of 3 capes was yoinked directly from RS3's Kiln Capes.

Absolutely lost it when you threw Lahey in there 😂

Can the infernal Cape be given the imbued mage Cape treatment?

Woox has since beat all the jads with no prayer.

That sponsor segue was so smooth

Bruh. Mr.Leyhe falling over after you announced 3 jads. I died.

What is the end music called?

Stupid new cape ideas.... we've got the fire cape, infernal cape. Why ain't that enough? Unless they create an immortal cape. That would be legit.

Defeating the triple jads on mobile is probably my greatest accomplishment in life

Help me poll stuff, been trying to push ideas on twitter. I'm still a shitter on twitter lol.

Woox is the biggest chad RuneScape has seen

Isn't woox that guy who cheated during a tournament?

I can’t wait till fight caves 3, hope they release it soon. Inferno ez now man

Tee eye Dee Dee why zee
