User description

For example, if your group is fighting General Graardor and non-ironman land a hit, the drop will either go to them or disappear.Group Ironmen will be able to participate in raids such as Theatre of Blood and Chambers of Xerics with non-group members.If you want to keep your Group Prestige Status (more on that later), you will have to limit all activities such as Chambers of Xerics and Theatre of Blood to your own group. You can still do those events with other players but you will instantly lose prestige status.Group Ironman TradingGIM members will be able to trade with other members of their group. This way they can help each other get quest items, trade bossing drops, and generally help each other unlock content a lot faster. Obviously, Group Ironman will not be able trade with regular players or other Ironman Groups.Shared StorageYour Ironman Group will have a shared storage accessible from the regular bank (through a new icon).Thus, members of your group will not be able to access your own bank but you will be able to share items in that shared storage.Group ironman hiscoresEvery group ironman team-size will participate in a different hiscores bracket. This means that upon the release of group ironman, we will have 4 extra hiscores added to the game. One for 2 players, one for 3 players, and so on, up until 5 players. While you can go up in brackets, you will never be able to go down in a bracket. So if you kick someone out of a 3-man team you will still remain in that specific bracket. However if instead, you add another person in your 3-man team, you will now be participating in the 4-man hiscore brackets. The Ranks of GIM hiscores will be determined by the total skill level of your group. Then, by the combined total experience.One big caveat: Only the experience gained while in the group counts towards the total experience. This means that when a new member joins the group, their experience WILL NOT COUNT towards the total experience of the group.Group PrestigeEvery Ironman Group will have Prestige Status. This is a star icon visible in the game and hiscores and it means that the original Group is in tact.Group Prestige can only be achieved if everyone joins at the same time at The Node. - Players who are added later, will destroy your prestige status.- You will also lose Prestige Status if you participate in Raids (COX/TOB) with NON-GROUP players.This is to prevent any kind of boosting from happening in GIM.Individual players will have prestige as well. This is marked with a star icon next to your name. You will lose your individual prestige if you join a new group.Changes to the GroupThe leader can step down (7 day grace period).If leader is inactive for 30 days, the first player who joined becomes the new leader. The original leader will be demoted, they remain part of the group.You can leave a group by speaking to the Iron Tutor on the Node. For this process, there is also a 7 day grace period. Once you’ve left a group, you can join another or create your own.How to become a Group IronmanGroup Ironman accounts are started at The Node, a small island just underneath the tutorial island.In order to become a group ironman, you will have to talk to one of the Iron Tutors on Tutorial Island.These are the same tutors where you can go to become a regular ironman.Once you talk to them, you will be able to choose between regular group ironman or hardcore group ironman.Keep in mind that you need to do this BEFORE you leave the tutorial island in order to become a group ironman account.If you skip this step, your account will not be able to become a group ironman.Once you finish tutorial island, there will be a boat that takes you to The Node.Obviously, no existing accounts (even ironman accounts) can become a group ironman.Creating a GroupOnce you arrive at The Node, you will be able to create your own Ironman Group and start recruiting.Here’s how you can create your group:- Click on ‘Create Group’- Pick whether you want Group Prestige or not- Right-Click on players at the Node and press the ‘invite’ option.- Pick your Group Name (is only saved once the group is confirmed)- Select confirm (only when everyone is invited to maintain prestige)Group names are shared with clan names. This means you cannot give your group a name that already belongs to an existing clan in osrs.If you plan to join a group instead, skip this step and wait for someone to invite you. Don’t click on the Create Group button!Recruiting ProcessOnce a group is created, you will be able to recruit others in the Node.Jagex will set up dedicated worlds for this to make it easier to recruit or get recruited. Recruiting will be easy, simply right-click on potential candidates to invite them to your group.Once your group is complete, select confirm.Make sure you only confirm once your group is full as you won’t be able to change the group size afterward.Ready to get started?
