Sword is worth it for training strength. You can suffice with barrows armour.

Stick with yew longs for profit.

I class myself as a skiller and can hold my own in PvP. A skiller doesn't have to be a level 3.

Cept it may backfire and you get tele'd to another place. Bones to peaches is safer.

1. Guthans is a no-no as soon as you take off your facemask/slayer helm your stats get drained. Use bones to peaches. 2. I get roughly 60 crimsons per task of 150 so thats a drop rate of approx 1/3. That means you'd need to kill about 6k dust devils. Dependant on your stats and gear you'd need to work it out. 3. Choas Tunnels

That's correct, that's why if you go to the Rogue's Den, bring cooking guantlets, and don't cook the fish until you reached it's level (68 for lobs, 81 for swordies, 94 for sharks). Common way is/was lobsters til 94 then sharks to 99. Lobsters slow down levels 90+ but once you hit 94, the sharks make the last few levels a breeze. This way you know 100% amounts required and the profit/loss you will make. Monkfish are also popular however you still burn these, even at 99 so you won't ever be able to know exactly how much more you need to cook. I would start cooking ASAP, whilst PVPis still semi-popular.

Bunyips are great but they only really tide you over. Sometimes you need the extra healing power of Guthans. For example Nechs hit hard. Sometimes they get lucky and your down to 40 health and you need a quick zap of Guthans. Othertimes they will barely touch you and you won't need to use Guthans. For that reason I prefer taking the spear/helm and only wasting 2 inventory slots, rather than take pizza's/fish which will waste more. Sometime I bring bones to peaches runes (usually only when I use Karils instead of Guthans) to boost my health if needed.

Depends on how long you are planning on woodcutting. if you are going from 40-70 then yes it's worth it. If you are doing yews for cash and are just gonna get bored after 2 hours, then no it isn't. Don't forget you can always borrow one.

Fire Giants are great. Hellhounds are too. If you are a ranger I would do Hellhounds, the clue scrolls will make you money.

Agree with Ginger_Warrior also I do not feel this a huge problem I cruise the boards daily and I may see 1 or 2. " Mostly " our newer users are doing it give them time to learn I am sure our older users will set them straight hopefully in a nice way. That's wishful thinking!

and the fact you don't need to remember to carry a nosepeg with you when you take the shortcut to Mages/Bloodveld/Gargoyles/Nechs/Abby Demons.

They break if you are stupid enough to do Summer's End with one :(

Only use helm/mask with slayer tasks.

No such calculator. The XP you get depends on which tasks you get so it's all going to be random. However as a guide MOST slayer tasks give the same XP as the monsters XP.

An easy fix would be to make topic titles non-editable. However this would obviously mean more work for moderators to change titles on certain posts.

Defender wins for most people because quite simply they have ways to deal with the damage taken. They may eat a lobster, use a Bunyip or heal with Guthans but either way the loss of health is negated. Another point to consider is speed of kills. The improved accuracy of the defender means you will hit more often, and therefore kill faster, leaving the opponent less chance to hit you back. Plus don't under estimate the super defence pot. The difference is noticeable and on a few tasks really helps out.

One for ranged, one for melee. Yes stupid i know. Stupid lag. :( Atleast, Next time. Bring usual Rune. Not a (t) Or god. Okya, now have you got anything to say thats on topic? EDIT: I just figured something. Yesterday i was ranging Moss Giants on Crandor in a PvP world. The reason for doing it in a PvP world is because it is peacefull, i was the only person there for hours. Well as it happned, i ran out of arrows and had to teleport to Varrock to go to the Grand Exchange. As i teleported i experienced a small lag and when the lag ended i was standing in Lumbridge with nothing but a Saradoming Platebody, Saradomin Platelegs and a Rune 2H sword. I had obviously been attacked. I lost over 40K Iron arrows, Saradomin Full Helm, Saradomin Kiteshield, Dragonhide(g) Body, Black(g) Platelegs, Black(g) Full Helm, about 150 Law Runes, about 400 Nature Runes, about 1000 Air runes, over 50K cash and a Strength Amulet(t). Yes i was pretty upset for a while and even contemplated over quitting. This being the second time i lost a great deal of money i was not very happy. I was left with only 1Mil in my bank having had over 7Mil. I was halfway to my goal to get a Santa Hat. IT says you were out of arrows. And that you lost 40K iron arrows? Your not honest. :shame: TBH I fail to believe anyone is dumb enough to use a PvP world to skill on with a huge amount of expensive equipment. So the thought had crossed my mind it could be a load of bull. ON TOPIC: Do whatever you did to get the money for all the Sara God stuff in the first place.

Woot thanks

I don't notice a difference with a ROW. If I am attacking with crush then I use it, if I use slash then warrior. Bersereker is too expensive for it's bonus.

lol your reasons for hating the update are mine for loving it. All that rune junk from treasure trails I used to alch can now be sold max. Screw alching rune scimmys for 19k when I can get 30k for them. I'm already 99 cooking, but food and raw fish sell instantly at max. Good to be a skiller!

Bullcrap, I've been mining there all week and doing other things. The competition for resources simply shifts to bloodshed instead of whining. You find real skillers in the PvP worlds, fighting over resources and evading player killers. It's the epitome of the old school wilderness. What he said. PvP worlds are great for skillers as most people are too scared to venture onto them. Powertraining is easier as you don't have to fight for spots, plus if you do die you can make sure your 3 protected items are the ones you need. A good example is granite mining.

Get membership now. Far better ways to train, namely slayer.

Bogrog just outside the ogre city of Gutanoth (sp). He will give you 70% of the shards back.

Junk trading is a waste of time unless you have: 1. Junk in your bank. 2. The patience and willingness to train a skill. For example if I got lucky and had an item I could beef up with junk then I would find a method to train one of my skills to generate junk. For example the fletching of maple logs. In this case you get free fletching XP and cash, for an otherwise non-profitable training method. Otherwise you may as well sell for max in GE.

If you train on a PVP world then you don't wear high value items and expect losses. You certainly don't teleport to the hub of all the action. If you train range you don't wear plate metal items.
