'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a community created [[Game Mode]], where a player's character must follow a set of strict game rules.  These game rules are designed to make the game more challenging, and to make players think about preparation, planning, and thinking ahead.  In addition there are strong bank management aspects involved that can very easily punish mistakes.

==Side Quests==
Due to the extended length of some of the grinds in this mode, some early players filled these with side quests or secondary content that wasn't necessary, but would further future goals or make future content simpler. This section lists a few of these, all combat focused, as well as the times you should be focusing on them.  Note that none of these will be simple side quests, they will all require proper consideration, because they will have an affect on your progress. 
These side quests are now mandatory content for this mode, and not completing them before their deadlines will result in you having broken the rules of the mode.
* Completing the {{ZoneIcon|Volcanic Cave}} before Astrology
* Completing the {{ZoneIcon|Infernal Stronghold}} before Herblore
* Completing {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} before Township

On deaths: You may not allow yourself to die, even accidentally.  Reminder, you may not flee from any battle, either you die, or the enemy does.  If you die, you are no longer playing this challenge mode and must restart.

On not fleeing: You may never run in the middle of a fight, you may only do so between battles.  This is, if you wish to change which mob you are fighting then you must do so whilst it is respawning, after you have killed it, or after it has killed you.  Reminder, you may not die intentionally, doing so essentially voids the challenge, you should aim to play as if this is {{Icon|Hardcore}} and death means your account is no more.

On looting: If you forget to loot items, or afk overnight and "lose" items, this is fine, just so long as you have at least one of every item that mob has dropped for you, in your bank.  Additionally, once you have unlocked Loot Container Stacking from the Shop, you may not use the Loot Container to store items, you must still loot them.
