You should get to about 10 in all melee combat skills (usually expressed as {{Skill|Attack|10|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Strength|10|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Defence|10|nolink=true}}) by fighting {{MonsterIcon|Plant|Plants}}. After that, it’s time to start getting your first bit of equipment.

After that, it’s time to start getting your first bit of equipment. Try to select {{MonsterIcon|Plant}} easy slayer tasks to start the {{SC|slayer coin}} stack rolling.


After you have a decent stack of food from fighting {{MonsterIcon|Plant|Plants|nolink=true}}, it’s time to get your first pieces of gear from the {{MonsterIcon|Golbin}}. You should have some levels in all skills ({{Skill|Attack|10|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Strength|10|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Defence|10|nolink=true}} or so) and a couple hundred {{ItemIcon|Potatoes|potatoes|nolink=true}} or so. You’re looking for a {{ItemIcon|Bronze Battleaxe}} (1 in 27 chance) and a {{ItemIcon|Bronze Shield}} (1 in 27 chance). If you get unlucky, don’t worry. Just kill {{MonsterIcon|Plant|Plants|nolink=true}} for food until you’re able to get both.

After you have the gear from the {{MonsterIcon|Zombie Hand|nolink=true}}, you should then move on to the regular {{MonsterIcon|Zombie}} for the {{ItemIcon|Steel Platebody}} (1 in 5 chance). It also drops {{ItemIcon|Steel Boots}} (1 in 5 chance), but you shouldn’t grind for them here since it's easier to get them from the {{MonsterIcon|Steel Knight}} next. ({{Skill|Attack|20|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Strength|20|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Defence|20|nolink=true}} stats recommended)

You’ll end the first part of your HCCO journey with {{MonsterIcon|Steel Knight|Steel Knights}}. They drop the {{ItemIcon|Steel Helmet}} (15 in 67 chance), {{ItemIcon|Steel Shield}} (10 in 67 chance), {{ItemIcon|Steel Sword}} (10 in 67 chance), and {{ItemIcon|Steel Scimitar}} (4 in 67 chance). You should be using the {{ItemIcon|Steel Sword|nolink=true}} on {{Skill|Attack|nolink=true}} and {{Skill|Defence|nolink=true}} and the {{ItemIcon|Steel Scimitar|Scimitar|nolink=true}} on {{Skill|Strength|nolink=true}} when killing most monsters, but again, daggers should be used on {{MonsterIcon|Plant|Plants|nolink=true}} due to their fast attack rate. The {{ItemIcon|Mirror Shield}} is a useful item to get around here, but if you decide not to get it, you can avoid ever getting tasks in the {{ZoneIcon|Strange Cave}}. It acts as a decent early Shield, before you get the {{ItemIcon|Mithril Shield|nolink=true}}. However, it's optional.

However, it's optional, and the {{SC|slayer coins}} can be spent on {{UpgradeIcon|Basic Resupply|Basic Resupplies}} instead.
