i found the drop to be in the region of 1:50 for either a ring or axe, and i have gone on 400+ dry streaks but also had 6 drops in a trip before - so it is random, but those were extremes
i didn't say that sgs was required if you read the writing below, and a zamorakian spear at about 1.5m will yield massively faster kills than full guthans, and at no point did anyone that i could see reccomend bandos and mage pray (if they did then :wall: ) banking doesn't take very long, so its worth doing multiple trips with spear than 1 with guthans
this was my setup before piety (should have been ss not sgs) and this is my setup after, with piety and unicorn no protect prayer required sgs is the best spec weapon, i'm using granite maul in the 2nd picture because i don't have it anymore, and you dont have to worry about changing attack styles like the mace (crush option with ss = stab option for dmace), and the maul on a full bar has the power to kill the waterfiend almost instantly with on the first setup i was getting a measly 60 crimson/hour, on the second i had higher stats and the mask as well, and it shot up to about 120-150 crimsons per hour!
JUST REALIZED I DONT HAVE 70 SLAYER GF 200 TOKENS =D> gf. barrows gloves are still very good though, and your choice is the faster way of prayer or the cheaper way of range
ah but cbow could also mean crystal... :P anyway, using emerald bolts until dragon is poisoned then switching over to regular mithril isn't a bad idea Not many use Cbow as short for crystal bow :) before crossbows got good, cbow WAS crystal bow, although nowadays i admit cbow is crossbow for a majority of the time
at ape atoll gorillas you want dharoks, which is faster - i suspect the saradomin sword is faster strength xp normally than gs, but i haven't done any exp rate tests
Yes, there is a bonus. Not only the first 5th one, but the 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th is 15x, 60, 70 ect, ect. no, you are confused tasks 1-4 = no points tasks 5-9 = 15 points each 10 = 75 11-19 = 15 each 20 = 75 etc. nothing special about the 5th in terms of bonuses
scabarites - good xp and crimsons, no damage taken when in the right place warped - good xp if not lazy (unlike me) steels and blacks....well there is always a chance of this but sumona by the looks of things assigns an awful lot more cannon tasks, while duradel assigns more for drops
two points here 1) there is no special reward for the 5th task, it is just the first one you get points for 2) the points are a bonus anyway, you should be sticking to duradel/sumona anyway as they provide better xp, and just take the bonus points as that - a bonus
aww, sure you will get one soon ;) so nearly a walk-in visage that one, only killed one before, and the fact the bolt is coming sideways out of the crossbow amuses me on that picture (look closely :P )
