Deadman Reborn is starting on the 25th of August and is a seasonal event on OldSchool Runescape. A good starting guide should help you have the most fun you can, as I know a lot of new deadman reborn people might struggle to know what to do. If you use this guide to start and rebuild, you will always have something to fall back on. Make Deadman Reborn your own adventure, there is so much exploring to do, especially with the new deadman reborn sigils.

This guide is aimed to be extremely safe, so we will take extra steps to make sure we don't die. Make sure you have authenticator on your account for one of the future steps.
Spawn Varrock, choose whichever sigil you would like
Run Southeast to the men and pickpocket them for 5 thieving
Run to the Varrock east bank and deposit all of your items
Withdraw bread and shrimp
Run southeast and steal 7 cups of tea
Run all the way west to the stronghold of security
Get just your first 2k on the first level, home teleport
Run north to the starter guides and get a starter kit from them
Open the starter kit and put the staff on, put the staff on defensive casting
Train mage/defence until you are 35 combat
Buy a spade from the general store and start x marks the spot in lumbridge pub
Complete the first 2 steps in lumbridge
Run west to draynor and complete the other 2 steps
Buy a chronicle and 2 teleports in draynor
Run to veos and hand him the casket for the xp lamp
Use the xp lamp on agility, go do 9 laps of draynor agility to 30 agility
Teleport to varrock and do 37 laps from 30 to 50 agility
Go to shanty pass and buy desert robes and 5 waterskins
Use the carpets to go the agility pyramid
The agility pyramid provides 10k per top obtained as well as several agility levels
There will be pkers here so be careful.
You can do the agility pyramid until you are ready to move on to the next combat bracket. A good idea could be once you make 50k, put an offer in for dragon bones so you can use them in your protection period at the chaos altar in the deep wilderness when you level up. Make use of your 1 hour protection.

The rebuild strategy (50 agility requirement)
Similar to the starter strategy, the rebuild strategy is very simple
Once you die for the third time, you will restart on 3 lives and pick a new starter sigil.
Also, on your third death, you can obtain a new starter pack.
Go get a starter pack from the north of lumbridge
Put the staff on defence mode and train to 35 combat
Pickup cowhides and once you are 35 combat, run to the ge
Sell the cowhides/loot you get for 200gp
Go to shanty pass and buy waterskins (200gp needed)
Go to agility pyramid and make money
When you have enough, prepare what you're going to do in the next combat bracket (buy d bones) and then when you level up, you have an hour protection
