Getting from 98 to 99 Summoning
It's probably more worth it to slay the remaining charms. Alternatively, you could go to CT waterfiends with your Iron Titan, which would be faster and (possibly) more fun.

Rearranging my Block list
Now your just being a cabbage here dude. You assume that I don't know NOTHING of slaying, and because you have higher levels, I couldn't argue with you. I do argue. Even if the exp isn't that great, because "We're slaying here" it's op to Gold to read and consider. I give him a tool, so he can look for himself. And he makes his choice. Oh, and next time, don't try to better the better man because you spend more time on RS then I do. Uh oh, was that a resounding "LOL NO LIFE" that I just heard? I wasn't implying that your lower slayer level meant that you had less experience. I was implying that your inability to produce an informed account of how to best slay wyverns meant that you had less experience. This will be my last response to you. I don't talk to immature little brats that assume too much and know too little. That goes for both slayer and my time spent playing Runescape.

Rearranging my Block list
Umoria, As I've already stated, I don't dislike wyverns at all. That AoW guide discusses camping at wyverns. We're slaying here. When slaying, slayer experience is assumed to be the main priority. In terms of slayer experience, wyverns are not that great. You should really slay a little more before you try and argue.

Rearranging my Block list
With just 85 herblore, they're probably worth doing. With 85 herblore and a yak, they're absolutely worth doing for the profit alone. However, it still depends on your priorities. If you want slayer experience, they still might be worth blocking.

Rearranging my Block list
You really need to clarify that you're ranging and not melee'ing. You're using the more expensive AND slower method. You've defeated your own point by acknowledging that your method produces poorer results with the only benefit being that it's more leisurely. With piety and near maxed melee, I can complete a wyvern task faster than you can, but still not fast enough to say without hesitation that they do not deserve to be on my block list. They're still slow experience with my stats. If you haven't guessed, I'm a slayer nerd, too. I find a lot of enjoyment in slaying efficiently and as fast as possible in order to max my experience per hour. The fact is though they are NOT at all slow if you're doing them right; everybody is pre-programmed into thinking they are slow and hating them and refuse to see otherwise based on the information from the people who go in hacking and slashing and don;t bother to consider tactics. Yes wyverns aren't one of the fastest tasks out there, but they are faster by a long shot than many task people don't bother to block. That's not true at all. They ARE one of the slower tasks in terms of slayer experience. I feel like you're assuming that I'm one of the those people who hate wyverns. I'm not. I do every wyvern task without a frown. I can do them relatively quickly, too, but that doesn't change the fact that most other tasks provide either more slayer experience, more combat experience, or more profit per hour than wyverns.

Rearranging my Block list
I find it odd that at 85,85, 80 I potted to do a wyvern for fally diary and I killed it no problems at all, I didn't even have to use a whole pot to do it. NB: I say pot but i cant rember if its a pot a pie or a beer tht boosts slayer, either way u get the idea. Killing one wyvern is nothing like killing 70. While slaying, you want (or should want) to go as fast as possible. Wyverns are an annoying task that take a fairly long time with little return. Assuming that you don't get a visage, that is. I'd say wyverns become a piece of cake once you can use soul split, turmoil, and a yak. Otherwise, they're quite annoying. That is my point however. I killed it easily AND quickly; ergo they are NOT that slow. And I'd hardly call a guaranteed 12k return per kill "little return" that's more gp per drop than any other monster really, even when averaged out over a task; wyverns are only slow when you don't know what you're doing. Also not being able to use a defender = stupid reason to block a task You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Wyverns can freeze you. Sometimes it doesn't happen during a kill. Sometimes it happens every single time you become unfrozen. Usually, it's somewhere in between. A single wyvern is not conclusive evidence that wyverns are easy to kill. I once killed Graardor in ten seconds by myself. Does that mean I should be able to kill him in ten seconds every single time? Absolutely not. FYI, wyverns bones are no where near 12k each. Wyverns aren't necessarily slow, but they're slower than most other tasks, which makes them eligible for the block list. EDIT: If not being able to use a defender makes a task significantly slower than most other tasks, you might consider blocking it.

DKS Blessed Shield Verus DFS
DFS has higher range and magic defense than a BSS. You take the all of your damage from the Synos, so the DFS would be preferable if you're hybriding. However, when maging, I think it's a tossup.

Rearranging my Block list
Hellhounds are probably the best possible task to block. Bloodvelds and Black Demons are great experience and shouldn't be passed up. I'd say block Hellhounds and Kalphites. Wyverns are iffy. I personally wouldn't block them, but they ARE slow unless you're nearly maxed. Honestly, with Kuradal it's not even worth it to have a full block list.

Tempests Monster Hunting Blog: COMPLETIONIST CAPE ACHIEVED
Boss hunt lol, while I don't mind merchers that have raised its price so high, I defs don't like them, so I don't plan to become one haha. Mostly use for amra, solo bandos/sara/zam and maybe TD's. Just so you know, Divine is proven to be much better than Elysian for solo boss hunting of any kind. The thread can be found on the RSOF. Here's the code: 17-18-724-58871816 Not saying you shouldn't get an Elysian. Just saying you should very carefully consider what you'll be using it for, and where your money is better spent.

What are you planning on using your Elysian for, when you get it?- My 2009
I agree. The drawing was very, very good.- 95
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUu-- Mint Cakes
The only use I can see for mint cakes is scamming players into lending me godswords for 24 hours. I'll take no part in their use as a currency.- Stealing Creation Construction Hammers
Yeah, it's about 50k. I asked the same question in a topic not too long ago, and I'm pretty sure someone gave the exact experience amount.- World Record Held by Runescape Player
Do you think playing 65 hours of Runescape a week for five solid years is not extreme? So "negative light" means anything other than gushing over them? Reasonable people understand that there's a difference between mindless name calling and valid observations that playing thousands of hours of a video game a year is not normal. I don't necessarily agree with Qeltar in his opinion of the player, but I have to agree with him here. Criticism is not tantamount to name-calling. That said, there HAS been a lot of name-calling and mud-slinging in this thread. - Tempests Monster Hunting Blog: COMPLETIONIST CAPE ACHIEVED
