The first reason is because you’ll save a lot of time. Skilling accounts are usually a great challenge, as you can’t access certain areas, and through their skilling output can fund your main account. For example, purely skilling accounts are great as alternative accounts. There are other interesting accounts you can purchase other than specific PvP builds. If you are currently in level 10 wilderness, you can only fight an enemy who’s at your level, or, 10 levels below/above you. This is an important distinction for PvP-specific builds, as the wilderness works by being certain regions being scoped to certain levels. Whilst your opponents are the same combat level as you, you have an optimized build. This allows you to easily defeat enemy player opponents within a few hits, easily obliterating them by having an optimal build. For example, having 1 Defence allows you to artificially lower your total combat level whilst having a high Attack/Strength level. You may be familiar with PvP builds: certain builds work best in the wilderness. Old School RuneScape accounts actually come in a surprising number of varieties. What types of OSRS Accounts are available? Each account has a specific build that’s primarily based on how you distribute your skills. If you’re familiar with MMOs such as World of Warcraft or Path of Exile, you’ll be aware of a concept known as ‘builds’. Old School RuneScape is a game where a variety of accounts can actually be a good thing.
