This will be another mega-thread that contains everything you need to know about botting all your melee stats from 1 - 99.
I recommend to read THIS before starting your journey, and won't talk about the content that is already covered in that thread.

Table of content:
1. - Starting your account
2. - Selection of scripts
3. - Questing
4. - NMZ / Sandcrabs / Gear
5. - Extra content.



1. - Starting your account

When you start off your account, its important to give you character a legitimate name, don't ever use something like "34blueberry3847", because people WILL report you.
It's also really important to do tutorial island yourself, DON'T USE A BOT TO COMPLETE IT!!

You will need quite a bit of money, but don't put to much money on the account.
Just supply the gear needed from your main, and leave 1m on the account for repairs etc.
This way, IF your account gets banned, the loss won't be to big.

You need to do a small amount of quests (7, and 3 optional quests).
These quests require certain levels in certain skills, its recommended that you do this part of skilling yourself (prayer is for protection prayers):
- 25 Agility
- 31 Crafting
- 36 Woodcutting
- 13+ Magic (some xp through quests)
- 43 Prayer (some xp through quests)
- 10 Cooking
- 10 Fishing



2. - Selection of scripts

I myself use OSBot, so the links will be to OSBot links.
If you prefer a other bot, just search up similar scripts on the bot of your liking.
As described in the other thread, the less input the script has, the better.
This are the scripts that i use:

Questing (ITS BETTER TO DO IT YOURSELF!):
- Stealth Quester - $20
Combat:
- APA Sand Crabs - $5
- Fruity NMZ - $10

The total price for the scripts: $35



3. - Questing

There are 2 parts here, the quests that you need and which you can't skip, and quests which are optional for XP.

Required quests:
Vampire slayer
Lost city
Tree Gnome Village
The Grand Tree
Fight arena
Cook's Assistant 
Fishing Contest
RFD - Dward Mountain subquest (Recipe for Disaster subquest) 

Optional quests:
Waterfall quest (DO THIS FOR A HUGE BOOST!! att & str XP)
Imp Catcher (magic XP)
Witch Potion (magic XP)
Restless ghost (prayer XP)
Priest in Peril (prayer XP)



4. - NMZ / Sandcrabs / Gear

When you start with sandcrabs, use the best gear you can use.
At lower levels, BRING food, because they hit pretty often when you are 1 def, i died when i started botting on my first account.

Many people ask in what order to bot their melee stats, do it as following (implying you did waterfall quest):
Def > 30
Att > 40
Str > 40
Att > 50
Str > 50
Def > 50
Att > 60
BUY A DRAGON LONGSWORD AT THIS POINT
Str > 60
Def > 60
Att > 70
BUY A SARADOMIN SWORD AT THIS POINT AND SWITCH TO NMZ.

Attack will always be priority 1 for DPS, followed by Strenght.
Its also more efficient to stop training Defence after you hit level 70, until you reached 99 Attack and 99 Strenght.

At NMZ, your first priority is to get your stats as following:
Attack: 80
Strenght: 80
Defence: 70

Why Attack and Strenght 80?
Dharoks is the same XP rate @70/70/70 as saradomin sword with melee gear, its not worth the money for the repairs and i even experienced lower XP rates with Dharoks at lower levels than using SS + Melee gear.

The gear i use until i can use Dharoks is as following:
- Rune helm
- Dragon chainbody / Granite body
- Dragon Platelegs
- Amulet of fury
- Obby cape
- Berserker ring (Imbue when possible)
- Dragon boots
- Dragon longsword
- Rune kiteshield

When you reach the levels for Dharoks, just replace the gear above with Dharoks gear.

The first few trips of NMZ will be expensive since you will use Protect from Melee untill you have enough points to buy overloads and absorb pots,
Don't forget to bring the rock cake from the Dwarf subquest to bring your HP down to 51, and use a overload to bring it to 1.

I always use 9 overloads and 18 absorb potions per trip!



5. - Extra content

What is NMZ?
- NMZ stands short for Nightmare zone, where you fight bosses you defeated before in quests.
NMZ is the best melee XP ingame, and is used widely to train melee stats.

Why do i need 1HP @NMZ?
- Absorb potions absorb the damage you would normally take in NMZ, when your HP is 1, the opponents max hit is also 1.
By keeping your HP low, your absorb potions will last way longer then when having full HP.
- Dharoks hits higher when your HP is low.

How do i keep 1HP?
- The script i provided has a option to flick rapid heal, ALWAYS turn this on!
Flicking rapid heal will reset the timer that is used to regenerate health, keeping your health always at 1.

Why sandcrabs?
- Sandcrabs are really AFK, and the bot only needs to interact once every 20 minutes to reset agro.



Thread WILL be updated and corrected if needed!

Nice tutorial, might put this to use.

[Tree Hugger]

Putting out some lovely content. Maybe just put this in as a subsection to the stickied thread?

The sticky is aimed to provide answers to the most asked questions, I could add a link to this thread tho.
and thanks for the heads up, planning on creating more high quality guides like these, just need to decide what my next subject will be!

Maybe something along the lines of goldfarming, specifically how to properly transfer materials and gold between bots and mule and safely sell the gold.

You could make quite a bit of money training and selling accounts like this tbh. Thank's heaps for the scripts though can recommend this to a friend wanting to get into staking rentals.

Exactly what i'm doing mate ;)
Once you did it once or twice, you will get the hand of it and the progress will be faster every time you bot an max melee account.

Smarty pants :P How much do you usually profit from max CB's?

$300 -$400.
Sometimes less when a account gets striked with a 2 day ban.

Wow in what time span? Cause I know 1m xp a day would take like 10 hours+ and you need 13m per skill.

I always bot safe, so it takes 3 to 4 months.
I always bot 4 accounts at a time.
Total ban rate is less than 10%.

Interesting. So a plain account with 99 cb's will cost around 300-400? Do you sell em on sythe or something? Also(because I'm a good skiller) are max cb accounts the only good money maker or can I skill/quest out other things to bring the value up. Right now I'm using a wyvern alt while I skill on my main.. do you think with 72 slayer and max cb I could sell it for quite a bit. Because I can skill out an account like that quite quick if I try.

Almost all max melee accounts are purely used for staking, so extra skills or stats won't add up on the price tag, people will just look for other accounts that are cheaper.

"- The script i provided has a option to flick rapid heal, ALWAYS turn this on!"

It's already been many months since you can eat rock cake through absorption.
So you don't need to flick rapid heal anymore, but I guess if the bot does it for you what does it matter :P

Any good VPS providers to get this started?
