"Tekuani Method" HCIM Revenants Guide

By: Tekuani

Note: This guide focuses on a more strategic approach of:

  • Rushing to 1250+ total level for access to total level worlds
  • Completing the Wilderness Hard Diary for a safer approach to escaping inside the Revenants Caves
  • Keeping a low combat level
  • Using the available plugins from the RuneLite Plugin Hub as a resource

Recommended Plugins to use

  • GPU — Set "Draw Distance" to the highest your computer can handle. Lets you see projectiles or ground items of a player around you at far distance.
  • Large Logout — Makes the logout button larger than default. Less mouse travel = better survival chances.
  • Wilderness Player Alarm — Strobe flash on your entire client indicating another player has spawned near you. Not recommended for photosensitive users.
  • Tureal Skipping — Shows useful information on where to kill Slayer monsters from Turael.
  • Inventory Setups & Bank Tag Layouts — Time efficient to gear from Turael skipping → Revenants → Wilderness Slayer. Example below for 1-def pure. For more information on how to set it up, please click this link.
  • Player Indicators — Highlights other players in the minimap. Draw Names on minimap selected; Highlight others enabled with a color of your choice.

Inventory Setups & Bank Tag Layouts

It is time efficient to gear up in this manner from Turael skipping, to Revenants, to Wilderness Slayer monsters. Below is an example of how many setups I have used as a 1 defense pure.

Part 1

  • Create an OSRS character with a recommended (1) bond membership redeem.
  • Do not forget to speak to Paul before leaving the island to change your character to HCIM mode.

Get 43 Prayer

  • Pure HCIM can skip this grind to receive Prayer XP from quests instead.
  • Can be done later on, but it will be risky as you have much more time to lose if you die. It is best to get this grind over with as soon as possible.
  • When arriving in Lumbridge, teleport straight to Clans Wars for the Ferrox Enclave using the minigame teleport.
  • Bank everything.
  • Drink pool and run northeast to the lvl 28 Boneyard while avoiding skeletons and Ents along the way.
  • Optional: Bring an alt to scout and cannon skeletons for you at the Boneyard.
  • Pickup big bones, and run to the Chaos Altar in lvl38 wilderness to use your bones on the altar.
  • Optional: Have a second alt at the lvl 35 Obelisk to teleport you to the lvl 44 Obelisk and vice versa.
  • If run energy/health is low, you can Home teleport to Lumbridge at lvl 20 wilderness and then back to Ferrox Enclave.
  • Teleport to Lumbridge when complete.

Part 2

  • Get 99 Firemaking. (This is the most efficient engineered guide to get you started in questing/level gaining)
  • Follow OzirisRS's Ironman guide starting from line #66.
  • Open all Wintertodt crates.
  • Can stay longer after 99 Firemaking incase you did not get the (16) Magic logs needed for Desert Treasure I, Mounrning's End Part I, and the Gnome Stronghold balloon route needed for Monkey Madness II.
  • Home teleport to Lumbridge when finished at Wintertodt. Should be near 400+ ish total level.
  • Buy at least (2) escape crystals from Rick, 2nd floor in the Wizard Tower.
  • Set your Ring of Life option to ON.
  • Set Inactivity to 10s.
  • Optional: You can set your teleportation help to be assisted by other players but the downside is anyone can teleport you at any time, including your alt for whatever reason.
  • This will be your ring BIS item. It can be used as an emergency teleport for up to lvl30 wilderness and it can be worn or placed in inventory.
  • This will be working better once Witches House is complete for 30hp during the Ozirus guide.
  • Continue back to the Ozirus Ironman guide. Starting from line #225 — Link to guide. End at line #597.
  • If you do not have 35 fishing yet at this point, buy feathers for 35 Fishing in Shilo Village.
  • Get 35 Fishing in Shilo Village. We are skipping the Barbarian Fishing route to avoid useless Strength levels that make your combat level go up.
  • Pastebin — Ironman guide v4

Part 3

  • Get at least 56 agility using rooftop methods. (56 Agility unlocks the Guardians of the Rift shortcut.)
  • 82 Fishing at Tempoross using the solo method. (Can stay till 99)
  • Link to a youtube guide for Solo Tempoross
  • The rewards will be very useful to your late game experience with rewards being topaz & opal jewelry for Bracelets of Expedition & Bracelet of Slaughter. You will receive alchables and an exaggerated amount of food for wilderness content.
  • Continue the Ozirus Ironman guide. Starting from line #617 — Link to a Ozirus guide.
  • For the pker route for GP: after 750 total level and 30 quest points, do LMS for rune arrows to sell in Burthope.
  • For the skilling route for GP: train Thieving by blackjacking as needed.
  • Recommended to have at least 53 Thieving for Desert Treasure.
  • If you cannot LMS or Blackjacking per the Ozirus guide, gather steel platelegs from the wilderness and sell to Al-Kharid's Legs Bazaar (5 per world, ~625 gp avg).
  • Note: Pures are to avoid the unneeded defence/prayer quests for their build.
  • End at line #797 from the Ozirus Guide.

Part 4

  • Get at least 50 Runecrafting from Guardians of the Rift (77 recommended for MTA/94 Magic/runes).
  • Receive a Catalytic tiara for Wilderness Easy Diary.
  • Get 55 Mining (Medium Wilderness Diary). Star Mining (gembags) or MLM for coal (cannonballs).
  • Get 74 Smithing (Hard Wilderness Diary). Use Blast Furnace shop to buy Gold Ore. If GP is an issue, try Giants' Foundry. Use Goldsmith Gauntlets with Ice Gloves.

  • Get 66 Magic (Hard Wilderness Diary). Use GOTR runes at MTA (Mage's Book, B2P, Infinity Boots — pures can skip boots).

  • Aim for early 81 Construction Jewelry Box upgrade (boost) for Turael skipping.
  • Ice Queen — OSRS Wiki (for Ice Gloves)
  • Aim for the highest Pool upgrade you can do. (10) Stamina Pots can be boosted via Boosting Discord.
  • Get 68 Slayer (Hard Wilderness Diary). Escape Crystal helps. Safespot with range when possible.
  • Turael skip any high combat Slayer monster from Krystilia to avoid unnecessary XP. Every XP counts.
  • Check out the Slayer monster guides in this High Risk, High Reward Discord Server for more information.
  • If you get a Revenant task, you can do it early, but beware of teleport delay.
  • See Part 5 on how to Tureal/Turael Skip.
  • Complete Easy, Medium & Hard Wilderness Diaries.
  • Congratulations — reaching ~1250 total (often ~1340). Close to 1500 total worlds, highly recommended.

Part 5

Note: You can skip this section if you already know how to Turael skip for 68 Slayer.

  • Head to Edgeville and talk to Krystilia. If you receive Revenants, you can do it early but beware of teleport delay.
  • Disable "I Wildy More Slayer" — toggle has no point cost; recommended off for more Revenant tasks after 52 Slayer.

Point spending (priority)

  • Bigger and Badder (150 points) — fast XP to 68 Slayer
  • Revenenenenenants (100 points)
  • Malevolent Masquerade (400 points) — for Slayer helmet (skip if pure)
  • Reptile Freezer (90 points) — for Turael Lizards

Skip list should be

  • Greater Demons (too deep)
  • Fire Giants (Worst slayer cave)
  • Magic Axes (Self explanatory)
  • Ice Warriors (Projectiles are easy to spot)
  • Black Demons (Good on hard clues but high HP)

Hard Clues

  • Hard clues are your priority. Hellhounds drop these like candy inside the Slayer Caves.
  • Once you have the items you need, you can block this task.

Bracelets & supplies

  • Craft all opal bracelets (Tempoross rewards) → Expeditious bracelets (for all Turael tasks).
  • Craft all topaz bracelets (Tempoross rewards) → Slaughter bracelets (for Revenants & wilderness bosses).

Travel tips

  • Best early teleport to Krystilia: minigame teleport to Soul Wars. If on cooldown, use canoe system from Ferox/Lumbridge.
  • Best early teleport to Turael: Games necklace (changes once you have Jewelry Box in POH).

Minimum inventory (example)

  • Cannon + cannonballs (steel bars popular from Larran's Keys)
  • (2) Bracelets of Expedition
  • Rope
  • Earmuffs/Slayer helmet
  • Ectophial
  • Bullseye Lantern or Firemaking Cape
  • Large amount of Ice coolers for Lizard tasks
  • Rune pouch: Laws, Fire, Earth, Air, Water
  • Enchanted Gem (or !task in RuneLite)
  • GP for Shanty Pass / carpets / waterskins

Recommended worn gear (minimum)

  • Escape Crystal
  • Highest d'hide legs you can wear
  • Ava's Accumulator (Animal Magnetism at Slayer 18)
  • Crystal bow (for rich HCIMs), MSB, Yew shortbow + Rune arrows, or Dorgeshuun crossbow
  • Optional: Soul Wars is popular for rewards (arrows, bolts, ore, gems, runes)

Part 6 — Tekuani's Rules of Revenants (Tips)

  • Scouted? Logout and wait 5 min. Scouts may log back near you. Use an alt to scan where projectiles and ground items are visible beyond minimap.
  • Always loot everything you kill. Ground items show beyond minimap with increased render distance.
  • Get high Agility. Useful for Rev cave jumps.
  • Stay away from the Rev cave boss. It attracts everyone; your projectiles are seen from afar. Logout if needed.
  • Leave your ego at the entrance. One freeze or TB is enough to waste your time.
  • Make friends with pkers on your alt. Many are relentless — this is how I survived and never got attacked.
  • If you are camped, go skill.
  • Total worlds are a must to avoid scout bots and bots in general.
