The fastest xp I have found is the level 30 sos zombies. They drop steel arrows so use steel. Lessers (most overrated training monster in the game, P2P as well as F2P from what I've heard) suck at any level, ice warriors/giants are slower but have much better drops, ankous have good drops but at 60 range you'd have a hard time hitting on them.

Players' defence are that low? Then how come people use verac's for PvP?

I find it bizarre that experienced summoners do not know how to use combat familiars effectively. Using a combat familiar does not mean just pressing the whistle when you attack something. You have to change the way you fight in order to get the most out of it. In general you'll want to have your familiar attack a different NPC than yourself, unless it has really high hp. Overlord and spirit kyatt are stronger than the smoke devil. The Overlord is probably the best "low level" combat familiar. It hits pretty accurately, uses range and mage, maxes at around 10 I believe with its normal attack, and hits around 15-16 with its drown attack, which randomly activates sometimes. I would imagine it'd be much better if you charge your Slayer Helm with Doomsphere scrolls. At 73 Summoning, I use the Overlord more than any other familiar (while slaying.) EDIT: In summary, I would use the Overlord exclusively till 79 summoning. Kyatts hit up to 30 with their first strike which makes them clearly superior to the overlord against monsters that don't take a long time to kill (like dust devils). And the overlord hits 14, by the way.

Either cannon ice trolls or melee them in the CT. They're unaggressive (in the tunnels) and have uber drops.

Superheating iron is the fastest xp in F2P, around 80kish per hour compared to alching's 60k. It costs around 1.7gp per xp, though, considerably more than alching.

Slayer helm+fury> slayer helm/nose peg+salve (e) even with maxed out stats.

Camping at aviansies for days? In P2P that means you're missing out on a lot (Bork, farming, etc. etc. etc.)

Defender>DFS; whip>godsword. Fighter torso is not worth it as compfreak said.

High defence.

Because it's cheap for f2p? You still get exp on the dummies with melee no matter what- it's just 1 exp per 10 damage (it adds up) dude wtf r u talking about cursing is more costly than superheating mith bars :wall: 1 curse=9gp body rune and 32 gp in water runes (no way to profit) superheat mith bar 20gp LOSS and tripple the xp THEREFORE once you get 43 mage switch to superheating mithril bars or mining your own iron and superheating that You're right, but if you mine your own iron it's still a loss since you could have sold the ore. Curses downright suck, even for F2P, once you get past 43. It's about 33k mage xp an hour (compared to 53k for superheating mith and 80k for superheating iron) and costs more than mith (though less than iron).

99 strength would increase your xp rate more than 99 attack (since most monsters worth training on have low defence anyway), but getting both would be ideal.

Getting 32 magic from cursing is not as bad as it seems. Getting 99 by cursing is a different method though ... that's why there are good combat minigames as breaks. Why on earth would you get 99 mage by cursing?

Getting to GWD is probably faster than Ogre enclave lol. (If you've done Eadger's Ruse)

My friend once did a fire giant task with a karamthulhu overlord. The overlord got him 6k range xp in an hour (almost 10% increase in speed), and using it didn't really slow him down at all since he was fighting multiple giants most of them time. Quite a few times the overlord KO'ed red-barred giants that he would've had to waste a hit finishing off. So, they are not useless. Far from it.

Like 6-7 if you have the magic secateurs.

Yew longs suck for alching.

Did you hear about the mathematician who got constipated? He worked it out with a pencil.

SC mage? Verac's is the best armor to wear at Barrows for maging, though you can wear a guthan's/torag's/dharok's plate if you need the defence. As the above poster said, fire wave>slayer dart. The main disadvantage with the salamander is that you can't safespot, so you'd have to use prayer pots if you've got dharok in the tunnels. Though you could range them, if you have a good enough range level.

Of course.

Nope. The maximum amount used to be 10%, except for really cheap items. 3_Hit_U will never think before posting stupid comments about any item to be honest Plant pot - An empty plant pot may be purchased from a farming shop for 1 coin each Grand Exchange Database - Current price - empty I'll save you the effort of clicking... its 1gp. The fact that the GE price is the exact same as the shop price is a strong indicator that plant pots are actually underpriced.

thats hard since I've got a BS perm mute Quickchat?

Yes, and they cost less than lobbies.

Anchovy pizzas are only like 60k an hour now, unfortunately, but that's still pretty good for F2P. I'd try them.

Cockroach workers are ftw, at my stats it's 20k xp and 30-40k profit an hour. The best spot to kill them is by the treasure room door, there's three of them grouped together. And don't use lobsters. They are too expensive to be worth it. My preferred food is tuna, but you can use apple pies or meat pizzas if you don't like banking (workers are about 1 minute away from Edge bank so that isn't a problem really).

Lunar? Any sort of mage gear is useless at Barrows (If you're missing 2/10 times then you have awful luck lol). Just wear Guthan's platebody to save yourself an inventory space. Or black d'hide for the range bonus, since you're ranging.
