He means that some arrows will be lost as they get lost normally. But all arrows which are normally get dropped on the ground in case of Accumulator will be automatically picked up, so you won't have to run around picking the arrows. Mind though, that accumulator does not work from behind a range or wall or something like that.

are you sure? I confirm. I also had occasions where I would fire a lot of cannonballs (800+) without the cannon decaying. In general you don't need to worry about it as there is a warning message before the cannon gets decayed, so you have a chance to pick it up and set it down afresh.

Mostly Trolls Slayer assignments and Herb patch with quick access to it

I wrote a short instruction how to manage it with optimal profit in my blog. I hope it helps. How to Manage your Miscellania Kingdom effectively

I used to make a living from highest shades a while back (like 1.5 years ago...). I was 60-65 combat and raised Firemaking to 80 specifically for Shades. It was my only skill over 70 at the time :-) Anyway I made my first million doing it with main profit coming from: -- making and selling full splitbarks 300K ea. -- getting and selling rune scimitars 25-30K ea I was also selling addi armors/weapons and hammers I was getting into the shop and banking/selling power amulets. Of course splitbarks are much cheaper now (probably around 200-250K) so nowadays it wouldn't be that profitable. I recall making about 70-100K in an hour on average. Not that great if you think about it. But I was also getting good combat, firemaking, crafting and prayer exp. It got me over 43 Prayer among other things, so no regrets. And it was better than fishing lobsters for sure. Hope it helped :-)

Just stay behind one of the chairs in a corner and kill the nearest one.

Related question. is Gardenhammer better then Whip against Shades? Or if I have a whip I don't need to bother with Gardenhammer at all?

Yes, you gain ranged exp from cannon. 1/4 of the cannon hits. Which is probably the fastest way to raise Ranged (challenged only by Chinchompas). That's how I raised mine to 80 anyway :-) No HP exp from Cannon though...

Most profitable way would be to make and sell bow strings. But is not the fastest. Money even and a bit faster new way is to buy gold bars 200ea, make golden bracelets and sell them to Charter Trader shop in Brimhaven with Karamja gloves on. Buying gems in F2P, cutting them and making/selling dueling rings, recoil rings and game necklaces is a good one too. Its speed depends on how lucky you are in buying those gems.

I measured barbarian and salmon/trout fly-fishing. barbarian gives 5600 more exp per hour at my level (79).

One more advice about raising Slayer with cannon. Take your Slayer assignments from the Edgeville master. He gives a lot of assignments good for using cannon such as dagonnath (under lighthouse), kalphites (room with high level guardians), werewolves and trolls.

no pauses... You'll have to restore your popularity there after the pause. Fortunately it takes only about 15-20 min to do so from 0% to 100%

Very nice!

Buy an air staff, so you won't need any air runes. And buy death runes 300 ea. You should get about 880 death runes for your money.

How weird... I haven't seen this. Hopefully someone will answer. I wanna know too :-)

Yes, buy them from Charter Trader shop. For instance on catherby pierce

You can even get several if you want. To do it ask Duke for a shield, then drop it and ask again. Repeat and pick up all the shields from the floor.

There is also usually one flying over the Castle Wars area. But I haven't see Magpie flying around yet.

Well, Runewise (link is in my Sig) does it. It tracks how much experience you got in RS between two visits of the site (Runewise).

Just ask one of the player to give you one :-) They are tradeable.

No, cannon won't make you any profit. But is the probably the fastest way to raise Ranged. Dagonnath is a moster of a choice with cannon, yes. I use cannon to complete Slayer assignments fast. It allows me to raise both Ranged and Slayer for the same expense.

You need to talk to the pirate at the entrance to the Agility area in Brimhaven.

The trader shop in Brimhaven buys gold bracelets 192 gp ea. And the price doesn't go down no matter how many items are in the shop. So if you buy gold bars 200ea, you would be getting almost free crafting exp.

Yeah, make Serum 207 from Tarromins. Save limpwurt roots for Super Strength potions! Farming helps a lot with raising Herblore. Go to dagonnath - they drop tons of herb seeds, especially toadflax seeds. Toad legs are easily picked up in the Gnome Stronghold. I raised several Herblore levels on Agility potions this way.

You are very welcome!
