By aborting a child you kill something that could potentially become a human. And guess what? You can create another one of these potential humans by just having sex another time. When the mother is actually ready. That would create a different child, yes. But it's all chance anyway, so as long as you don't abort babies because they have some kind of handicap you don't actually change anything, except your own life (not having to raise a baby, which generally makes it a lot more pleasant if you're not ready for the baby) and the baby. Since babies are random anyway, the 2nd change doesn't really matter. I don't see the problem with abortion, as long the mother didn't have unsafe sex out of free will and then resorts to abortion as some kind of last resort. But it is of course pretty hard to determine whether the mother had unsafe sex out of free will or not, so I guess we should just let the mother decide. I also think we should draw the line between abortion and murder at 30 weeks (?) or something, when the baby is actually able to survive outside of the womb by itself. You have like 3-4 months to think about aborting or not anyway so if you haven't decided by then it's your own fault.

Yes, that's why I said "positive assertion". Proving a negative is usually difficult, and often impossible. Yeah but in this case, the positive assertion is 'the core of the moon is made of stone', which is pretty obvious so that doesn't really have to be proven even though it is a positive assertion. It all depends on your definiton of what is obvious or not.

The onus of proof is on the person making a positive assertion. If you want to claim the necessity of a masculine and feminine influence on child development, it is up to YOU to provide evidence to support it, not up to others to try to disprove it. Otherwise, I could post saying the core of the moon is made of green cheese and make you try to prove otherwise. That doesn't always hold true though, it's all based on what we think is rational and what is not. I could for example claim that the core of the moon is not made of stone, which would be a negative assertion. It would be kind of weird though if you then had to prove the core of the moon is indeed made of stone. I do agree with you that it's pretty ridiculous to claim that a child needs both a mother and a father. I went a part of my life without a father myself and I wouldn't say I turned out messed up, the same would probably happen if a child would have 2 mothers or 2 fathers. The child could of course get bullied at school because his parents are 'weird', but that would be a problem of same-sex marriage not being socially accepted and not of it being wrong or something.

Yeah I do try to do that, but its annoying when you hit like 4 0's in a row and have to run back to the dragon you were killing 4 times, especially because you have to right click them. Will try ardougne cape next task, should help.

Killed 51 in 30 minutes, so a bit worse than I expected. I didn't bring a spec weapon though, any idea what weapon would be good?

Okay I'm convinced :P 120/h would actually make them about as fast as desert/jungle wyrms/greaters (I usually range greaters) so thats not bad.

Yeah I did add in overloads, 3 overloads 300k, 38 brews 200k, 8 sup rests 160k, 200 diamond (e) and like 100 ruby (e) like 460k, total of 1120k for 14 kills, 80k. Its 60k/kill if you exclude overload costs. You do get addy bars etc back but its still quite a lot per kill (especially the bolts, rune bolts might be better than diamond e because they are like 50% the price). Anyway, it seems like naruto already has all the info he wanted lol. Good luck with killing stuff :thumbup:

Well trips took about 1 hour 10 minutes and during that I could kill 14 on average. I calced profit/kill at 250k and costs/kill at 80k or something, and yeah I kinda notice now even with those figures 1.2m/h is way off lol. And should be more than 250k/kill I guess. Meh all depends on when you get hilt really.

Oh okay thats not that bad. Will probably unblcok them then unless someone else has something to add to that.

I'm wondering if anyone has figures on the amount of steels killed per hour with extremes and turmoil (and yak to bank bones), since I might unblock them if they're not that much worse than greaters. Also, can you soul split them or do they hit kinda hard? Thanks

How good you are at arma solo depends more on pray/summ/herb levels than on range level tbh, I got 15 kills/trip (after some practice) with 95 range. Barrows isn't that bad for money though, with overloads (and fire surge, but I guess cog would be equal) I could get under 6 mins a chest and like 12 chests per trip. Not sure about avg profit per hour but it's probably over 1m, arma was also like 1.2m/h (if you'd get all items exactly as often as you're supposed to get them according to the droprate). Wouldn't advise duoing cause you'll just get crashed and stuff. Tds are by far better than barrows though, but if you don't want that barrows isn't a bad alternative.

Another level today :thumbup:

Two to go, about 9-10 wyrms tasks till 99 :P

Well [bleep] me. Didn't even see the hex, already feared that would happen since its not exactly a large drop and they're pretty spread out. Still can't complain I guess but damn it's pretty stupid.

I used to train like that too, still was last or 2nd to last at 2100+ total. I kinda fell in love with slayer/combat though and now skills bore me, I think something similar will eventually happen to you too. Until then, just keep leveling any way you like.

I stewed about 160 (4) overloads from 92 herblore, took 90 (4) brown spices (which I had anyway because of something stupid) that take about 2 hours to obtain normally. About 1 hour used to make them, so basically you can make 50 overloads/hr stewing +4. Not that bad if you're not going to nolife monster hunt or something and use a massive load of overloads.

If you're going to cannon and waste money anyway, don't bother with safespots. If you want range xp, just range them while cannoning just as you would melee them, costs a bit more prayer potions but it's way better than trying to safespot.

I got like 150 iron kills/h with zs, so I'd say it is better for all metal tasks (would be hard to top that with whip tbh), better for black dragons too and I guess it doesn't suck against blue drags either, since it's not that much worse than a whip anyway so even a small weakness against stab would make it equal to whip.

Yeah there isn't much of a difference between steel and iron titan, I'd stick to iron if you're already maxed range. Yak for everything mentioned in the thread, and I personally use it for abyssal demons too so I can pick up stuff like addy bars and fill my whole inv with prayer potions.

Decided to buy 5 palm seeds and 1 calquat seed since I kinda want 20m farm xp anyway. Also finished my nech task and have an ice wyrm task now, should be 400k mage/100k slay xp or so :thumbup:

Will be making 1k overloads (if I make that with the ~110 stews I have), and training agilty after that since I do want 90 in that and haven't bothered (nor do I have the money) to buy supplies for other skills.

There is no actual difference except slightly higher xp/h. I honestly don't see what people could possibly complain about other than having to get used to the larger numbers.

Ready for it?! 3,600 pouches per hour for me. But if you're fast, 3k is really good still, so expect 3k and lower. I only can achieve 3,600 pouches at maximum speed with mousekeys at about 25 seconds per trip to the obelisk, and paying 100% attention of course. Remember, every second counts when it comes down to 25-30 seconds per trip. what exactly are you using mousekeys on? withdrawing and depositing items? >_> Yeah that and making pouches.
