Joining a streamer’s event

A streamer shared a link. Here is how to get on the board. You don’t need a clan.

~2 min to joinNo clan needed
Step 1

Join in four steps

#
  1. Open the link the streamer shared. Or type !join in their chat and the bot posts it.
  2. Sign in with Discord. That is your Anvil account. Nothing to fill in.
  3. Add your character. Press Add my character and type your RuneScape name. If it says Prove it’s mine, follow the steps on your profile. The plugin guide shows how.
  4. Press Join. Pick your character if you have more than one. You see You’re in! when it worked.
Step 2 · optional

Events for followers or subs

#

Some events are only for the streamer’s community. The join card says who, for example “Open to followers of somename on Twitch”.

Press Join anyway. If you are not let in yet, the card lists what to do. Do one of them, then press Join again.

What to do for each kind:

Twitch follow or subPress Link Twitch and sign in with Twitch. Anvil asks for no permissions. Then press Join again.
Kick follow or subPress Get Kick code. Type the code (like ANVIL-7F3K9Q) in the streamer’s Kick chat within 10 minutes. Each code works once. Then press Join again.
YouTube subscriberPress Check my YouTube subscription and sign in with Google. Pick the account you watch with. Your subscriptions must be public in YouTube’s privacy settings.
YouTube memberPress Link my YouTube account, then type your code in the YouTube live chat and press check the chat. This only works while the streamer is live.
Discord role or boosterJoin the streamer’s Discord server and get the role (or boost it). Anvil checks with the Discord account you signed in with.
Approval

Some streamers say yes to each player. Then the button says Ask to join, and you see Waiting for the host until they answer.

Step 3

Install the Anvil plugin

#

Your drops and kills count through the Anvil plugin for RuneLite. Install it from the Plugin Hub and sign in with Discord from its side panel.

The plugin guide walks you through it in about three minutes.

Step 4

Play

#

That’s it. Play as normal. When you get a drop or a kill the board needs, the plugin sends it in by itself.

Open the event link any time to see the board and the standings. You are playing this one event only: you are not joining a clan.

Step 5 · optional

Your connected accounts

#

The Twitch, YouTube and Kick accounts you linked are in Settings → Connected accounts. You can link them there before you join, too.

Unlink one any time. Events you already joined keep you. A gated event you join later asks you to link again.

Linked Twitch, YouTube and Kick accounts show on your profile with a verified tick: you proved they are yours. Turn off Show on my profile to hide one. A Medal link is different. You paste it yourself, so it has no tick.

Stream on Twitch yourself? Turn on Clip my stream when I hit a big moment under your Twitch account. While you are live in a streamer’s event, Anvil clips your rare drops, pets and finished tiles.

Step 6

Questions

#

When something says no:

“This event is full”There’s no room for more players. Only the streamer can make room — let them know.
I’m subbed but it won’t let me in.Check you linked the same account you subscribe with. On Twitch, look at Your Twitch on the join card. On Kick, type a fresh code in their chat: Anvil reads the sub badge on that message. On YouTube, make your subscriptions public and check again.
I followed on Kick but it says I didn’t.Anvil only sees follows made after the streamer connected Kick. Unfollow and follow again, then press Join.
“That Twitch account was already used to join this event”One Twitch (or Kick, or YouTube) account gets one player in. Somebody else already joined with it.
“Twitch didn’t answer just now”Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Discord had a hiccup. Wait a minute and press Join again.
“The host’s … connection isn’t working”This one is on the streamer. Tell them to reconnect their channel on Anvil.
My drops aren’t showing.Check the plugin is installed and signed in, and that you joined with the character you are playing. See the plugin guide.
Where can I find more events like this?The events page lists events anyone can join, including streamers’ events that are open right now.
Something on a streamer’s page breaks the rules.Press Report on the page, the event or the highlight. Pick what’s wrong and press Send. It goes to Anvil staff only. The streamer is never told who reported it.

Stuck, or something looks wrong? Ask in the Anvil support Discord
