All Fired Up: Getting All 14 Beacons Lit in 10 Minutes

[niperwiper]

For those of you without an inferno adze that are seeking one, you may find this video interesting. I recorded myself through the whole process of lighting the beacons in double speed. It takes me 10 minutes and 20 seconds, but I could have clipped at least 10 seconds off easily. I doubt many guides can get much faster than this without spellbook swapping, best things I can think of would be perhaps using the wilderness obelisks for the wilderness beacons.

Here's what I had written in notepad for this, right below my screen as I recorded:

Ooglog - ectophial, 1400 gp -> Salt water springs
1) Ardougne - two laws, two waters -> Run to wildy lever, go west to deep wildy beacon #1
2) Wildy beacon #2, 40 something wildy far west, possible revenants
3) Run all the way down to 13 wildy for final wildy beacon.
4) Tele trollheim - two laws, two fires -> go east, light beacon up obstacles
5) Go back west, then northwest, use agil s'cut, protect melee, sup restore at beacon
6) Games necklace -burthorpe -> go upstairs twice, go northeast to burthorpe beacon
7) House tele - one law one dust -> run out of taverly to goblin village, light at northeast corner. Alternative: Move-over-distance sphere to goblin village [from Land of the Goblins quest: takes two laws and molten glass to buy one]
8) Combat bracelet monastary -> go south then west then north to ice mountain beacon
9) Glory edge -> North to immediate edge beacon
10-11-12) One north of GE, one north of varrock, one north of jolly boar inn
13) Go southeast to entrance to eastern lands past con field. Light bag of bones man beacon.
14) Go south then east then south to final beacon nearby the morytania castle thing

Enjoy. I know the video quality isn't that great, but hopefully it's adequate. Let me know what you think!

Using PvP world's wilderness could be good as there is no revenants.

That is either all or nothing. If you run into a pker, you are royally screwed

The chance of bumping into 1 at remote parts of wilderness is like, 0.00000000005%.

true but some of those beacons are near edgeville

[niperwiper]

Yeah it's really not worth it to do a PvP world for this. Revenants are very easy to run away from anyway, just protect range or mage and run/eat if need to. Really nothing to it.

And you run through pk'er central in edgeville and north of varrock, so not a great idea. Added an alternative transportation for the goblin village part, could easily have broken 10 minutes with a move-over-distance sphere

If someone felt like giving me a matrix with the point - to - point shortest paths, I could write a program to calculate the shortest possible path (fastest).

Log back to a regular world.

Log back to a regular world.

And waste 45 seconds hopping? Not I, said the fly.

[niperwiper]

I'm about to do a second video proving you can use normal logs to light all 14 beacons. Planning to try to set a record time.

[Lord Klotski]

Damn it! I'm in the process of writing my own traveling salesman algorithm...it uses DP, doesn't run "n factorial"...it was going to solve this exact problem and find the shortest path.

I may have to beat your record. We shall see...

[dandonio]

How would you measure the distance between the beacons lol?
(Btw, I'll give you 10 $ if you give me a polynomial-time algorithm for the TSP *scam scam*)

[Craven Range]

How would you measure the distance between the beacons lol?

Squares? (i am not volunteering)

[Lord Klotski]

Measurement = Time. LOL.

It runs in n^2 . Times another trivial term...some 2^n thingy. What were you expecting? Lol.
