0Wherein I take on General Graardor (the General representing Bandos at the God Wars Dungeon).
GWD was added to Runescape 2 in 2007 (sometime after the '07 backup, meaning it was redesigned for OSRS specifically). It remains associated with nostalgia of group pve for many. For me, I never could boss in rs2 due to being young and bad, so revisiting it now, for real, is quite a trip.
Unfortunately, many irons are not fans of GWD because all bosses have to be solo'd - and none of them were designed with solo pve in mind, just due to the times. So, they're disproportionately difficult to grind, often requiring kiting methods - such as the 6:0 I'm demonstrating, here - to be farmed at group-level efficiency when alone.
This is a rather easy method compared to the lengths that irons go through now a days for max EHB at GWD bosses. Let alone raids. This, then, serves as a strong introduction to high-level pve, due to its approach-ability.
Frankly, Bandos is the most aesthetically-impressive boss, made only better by his rewards. 1/361 for bandos chestplate and tassets is very reasonable with this method; I think you'll agree.
