[OSRS] Beginner Guide to Castle Wars

Seeing as there is no video guide on castle wars, I decided I would do it myself! Castle wars is my all time favorite minigame and holds a lot of nostalgia for me, so honestly, I had fun making this. It gave me an excuse to play CW (for video clips) and I even learned a few things myself in doing my research! Anyways, I hope this guide is helpful to anyone considering playing!

Sorry I wasn't able to fully flesh out the gear portion of the video, I don't know anything about PVP and had a hard time trying to figure out what exactly were the metas. But basically, just use the best gear you have, or buy some barrows armor if you can.

If you want to join a chill osrs kinda discord server with friends who have a weird sense of humor and competitions/events like the monthly fashionscape competition, I made a server! Don't be shy about joining if you're looking to make friends, we don't bite! The only requirement to join is to be a good boi.
We're very LGBTQ+ friendly and a safespace for anyone who isn't a dick. ❤
At some point this month we’ll also be having a hide and seek competition where the prizes are 2 bonds, and a unique drops competition (whoever gets the most unique drops in 24 hours) with the prize at 2 bonds.

I hang out in the cc "Spookdog" with a few close friends occasionally, just to be with a few friends and less drama. Otherwise I'm in Mudkip's cc!

I really appreciate this! Not many people make videos for beginners to the game since people just assume everyone playing OSRS used to play it back in 2007. Thank you!

Hey I'm not sure how old you are but after watching this entire guide you did an excellent job. It was informative, not drawn out or cut too short. Tbh I'm pretty impressed. You have a future in making informative content what ever the genre. Thumbs up. Grtz

I just started RuneScape and I genuinely didn't know anything about castle wars until I watched this. Thanks

[highalchemy]

this is really good quality, thanks for putting in the time to making it and encouraging more people to have some fun there!

Thanks for the tutorial. I'm watching it while waiting 14min for my very first game.
WISH ME LUCK!!!

Ahh, just a heads up: lunar spells can be used in castle wars, as the competitive players often bring humidify runes to put out multiple fires with less inventory space. It's handy for them, as barricades currently on fire can be extinguished and immediately exploded so they can tear through defences in the blink of an eye.

I remember following a bunch of people into the whirlpool back in the day and i just followed the crowd. Thats when I found castle wars. God damn i was such a noob. But it was so fun

[enasni]

What do you know about castlebrews? There's a vague note about them in the Ardougne Elite diary, but nothing says where you get them/make them.

[wallacebrisby]

[Jane_Coyote]

You can bring pickaxes (and regular axes but I don't know why you would want to do that)
