Fire wave>slayer dart.

Aviansies, then use the money to chin.

^But any sensible person does have another single-handed weapon to be used in conjunction with a shield, aka a whip.

Don't slay if you're a ranger ;) Melee is by far the best way to slay.

No, because rune defender is better.

I agree that they both suck, and they shouldn't.I think that Gargoyles may have the advantage. In additon to the G maul, Gargoyles also have Mystic robe tops, and several rune items, and a fairly reliable drop of Pure essence. Nechs have death runes, Rune boots, and other rune stuff. Rune boots drop at a rate of about once every 150 kills, and they were once 200k. Now they have been made obselete and only contribute a small amount to the profit of every task. I strongly doubt that nechs are 100-200k per hour. They used to be better, and the problem could be solved by adding one weapon. While other Slayer monsters could deserve an increase to their drops, I think that Nechs are the most glaring problem. It takes 100 hours of work to achieve the slayer level required to fight them, and their only drop is obselete. Maybe solving the Nech problem could bring attention to some other problems as well. But lets take one thing at a time. Dark beasts are the most glaring problem. Second most would probably be wyverns, though the release of summoning and the DFS has helped them dramatically. While Dark Beast's big drop is of lower value than the whip, it is still of very good value. If the Dark Bow dropped down to an extremely low level, like the value of Rune Boots, I would be complaining. It may be a problem, but it is not one that is as major. That is just my opinion though. Skeletal Wyverns have a Granite Leg drop, I believe that G legs were still well over 150k. You also get good priced wyvern bones, and a rare shot at a visage. Both of these creatures do have some issues that could be looked at, but compare these two with the Nech, that has an obselete drop. 80-100 hours of work to get a low value rune drop. As I have said before, it could be solved very simply. I am not asking for a fancy new item, or anything crazy. Just add a dragon weapon, The schimmy, the hally, or the B axe, or even just beef up the secondaries. They do have some worth to me, but abyssals drop lots of charms too, and they have a drop. Dark Beasts drop lots of blues, and they have a good drop. I think that 80 slayer should be worth more than just getting higher than average crimsons.Do you not like the idea of making a change to the nech drop list? I guess the above also works for Erichermit's response as well. Dark beasts might be better money then nechs, but it takes a lot more time to get to 90 slayer then 80. Besides, nechs are the best slayer monster in the game, with the possible exception of dusties, when you are level 80. At level 90 the dark beast is far inferior to abyssal demons and spiritual mages.

Rune defender>>DFS; the range mini doesn't hit very hard. Wear whip+defender, Karil's, and Torag's helm.

I think that means the 'Hunt for Surok' thing. Look it up on Tip.it.

^That's a good idea.

The Chaos Tunnels is a dungeon... And I don't think there's a quest requirement to wear dagon'hai.

Maybe 40-50k. Yaks are better, but those suck as well. Kill aviansies.

He's 85 range. You're 98.

33% is the difference between 100k xp an hour and 133k xp an hour.

Whip+defender>GS at bandos with a high enough attack level. I doubt their defense is as high as graardor's.

A friend of mine tried them out at aviansies; he got 42k xp an hour but he normally gets over 40k using broad bolts. So it's not really worth it.

^Wouldn't a whip be better than a godsword? TDs have relatively low defense from what I've heard.

Where are your super sets...? And if you can afford bandos you should be praying 10% strength.

Proselyte. The hauberk is probably the best platebody in the game, degradable or nondegradable.

Or better yet, use the glitch, where you fire 249 shots with one bow and 1 with the other, and the second will degrade.

^Aren't nechs better money than gargoyles? But they both suck; really every slayer monsters up to, and possibly even including abyssal demons and spiritual mages, should have better drops.

^WHAT?!?! That's VERY slow, only 33k xp per hour. But it's fairly cheap. To OP: Superheating iron is the fastest f2p mage xp, over 80k an hour.

^Piety's if you really really want fast xp, 10% strength is better for cheap players. Piety probably increases xp 10-15% over 10% strength and costs like 100k extra per hour, so it's more cost-effective if you make close to 1m an hour.

The d hally had its time too. It was probably one of the best weapons in the game before the whip came out. Now, It could be alched. If you don't like alching, I think the D schimmy is in enough demand that the price wouldn't go down very much. It doesn't have to be dragon, but those are the only items that were in the price range I was looking for. I still think that the halberd or scimitar would be the best options, but the the problem could be solved by cranking up the half key drops, and other stuff too. Do you support the general idea that they deserve better drops? I would like to get at least one supporter lol. Well you'd have to be crazy not to support this. 80 slayer requires dozens of hours of time, yet nechs only give 200k profit an hour at best. Slayer is really underpowered nowadays.

^You should pray 10% by default if you have any decent income source.
