Casts needed while bursting lobs
Just to be safe incase you lag or something. Not many good choices for prayer or magic in that spot any way, might as well just use the RoL.

Skeletal Wyverns
Yes, no need for any mage defense. They DO NOT use a mage attack. They use a melee, a range, and their ice breath attack. Even if you protect from one, you're still taking damage from the other 2. The setup you have is what i would use. The only thing you could do more is just use piety.

Playinglimit???????
It's a 6 hour limit, not an 8 hour one. Unless they changed it recently.

How Much GP Made from each Skill?
I think you missed the point of atronic92's post. I Agree with laura @Sonic S/he wasn't trying to be accurate. They are just a guess, and some might be right. Cuz getting 99 slayer i probably got 200m+, I just don't know what happened to it :(. Yes you can make a ton of gp in various ways on different skills. But are you really going to mine runite from 85-99 mining, or fish sharks until 99? No, most people do it the fast/laid back way. It may not be the most profit or best method, but it is easier then some ways. Thats why people mine concentrated ores or fish at Monkfish or fly fish. They are easier and don't require much attention.

Hexcrest and Focus
Well yesterday i did a small amount of abyssal demons task using CoG charged + Full Slayer Helmet + Ferocious ring and i was hitting 413 on them (and a slayer creature) while i was only doing the same ~370 on Iron/Steel dragons (non-slayer creatures) in that same area. So to me it seems that the Hexcrest part of the helm doesn't work on non-slayer related monsters. So it does affect your max hit as before i was only able to hit 37, before the LP update, but was not able to hit over 400 or 40 on the old system. As for the accuracy I can't really tell as i just kill the things and don't pay attention to how often i hit or not.

Dags vs. Yaks for range xp
Don't forget that you can also cannon Aberrant Spectres. Idk about the exp/hr but i do know that you can still profit. Most of my exp came from cannoning tasks.

bones per hour on altar
No test or anything, but i say that the Pack Yak is way better due to the costs of pouches. Its 11k for a Tort pouch whiles its only 3k for a Yak pouch. And like codguy said, just pay attention and make sure to tele before they run out or bring more to light them back up.

Paying for Membership Problems
The info they are asking for isn't located on most foreign debit bank cards. I know mine (i live in the States) has the same info as a Credit card would. Your best bet would be to try and get to a store or something and buy either a RS card or a ultimate gamer card or even a reload-able card. Also i think it may be something to do with Canadian debit card as i have helped with this about 2-3 times before. If you also have a Cell Phone, or know someone that does (and tbh how do you not know someone) and just use it to pay by SMS. Its cheaper then by doing it through the phone but it goes to you phone bill instead.

what are cannonable/mageable slayer tasks?
Out of those you listed, i have maged all but the black demons and mithril dragons. They all lose on except for Iron Drags and blue dragons. You can profit on the others if you get a nice drop, or several of them. And it also depends on the spell.
-
what are cannonable/mageable slayer tasks?
With those you can also cannon Fire Giants, Black Demons, Suqahs and the LRCs. Might be one that i have missed. The ones you can mage are the DKs for dag tasks, Nechs using ancient magick to burst/barrage in the CT. I also use Magic on abyssal demons, blue/iron/steel dragons in Kuradal's dungeon. Thats all i can recall atm.

Spending some cash
Aside from the Focus Sight, Beserker ring, and Archer's ring, none of that is real useful while slaying. Ranger boots (seems overpriced) -> Snakeskin Boots work just fine for cost so little. Bandos GS -> Unless you go to GWD often, or you PK, a BGS isn't really worth it. Bandos Chest or Legs -> They're one of the more used items in slaying, but not needed as using Proselyte/Veracs and prayers on tasks beats those by far. Zerker Ring -> One of the best rings to have while slaying, unless you have access to the imbued rings. Full Guthans (I hope to get 68 summoning soon) Once you get atleast 88 summoning, Guthans isn't need any more. But for now its nice to have. Full Veracs -> Good to use at Sara GWD. But as a set not really. Archer's Ring -> If you range a lot, it is useful. Its only superior is the imbued version and maybe the ferocious ring. Focus Sight -> Great for slayer. DFS -> For slayer it isn't that useful. Its really only good on a few tasks, even fewer if you have 85 herblore. As for what will rise or fall i can't say much on.

Double Xp Weekend
Glory Trick? At least 29 glorys fullly charged in bank, then cycle... Edgetele, fairy ring, pictorius, underused summoning obelisk in the pit right next to there, edgetele. That cycle is terrible to use. If you have access to Piscatoris you can just use the bank right there, a lot closer then having to tele and then use the fairy rings. Its also better to use a Kyatt to tele there and just use a Glory/RoD to bank with. And if you're not 57 summoning, its probably better to have your house in Taverly and just teleport there, run to the obelisk in Taverly and use a Glory/RoD to bank and just teleport back.

seer diary achievement diary
Well a long with what those 2 have said. With either a Bunyip or Guthans with a EE, you will have plenty of healing for most slayer monsters and campable monsters. But for bosses having both is necessary. I know for doing DKs it is nice to have both incase you get to low on health and for tanking Bandos Guthans is useful along with a good healing familiar. I say it is worth it to get the EE as it is a good item to have, and i use it on all the tasks that i need healing on. Also good to use when training agility as you only need healing every so often and that is what the EE provides. Don't forget that you can boost your levels to get the goals in the Diaries.

Double Xp Weekend
Glory Trick? I think s/he means that you wear a glory and a RoD. Once the RoD is out of charges and you forget to get another one just tele to edge and bank there. At least that is what i think s/he means. I know though that it is possible to get 2.3k pouches in an hour. As for 3k its going to be really hard and you have to concentrate so much that its probably not even worth it. To get that you have to be able to Teleport, run and make the pouches and tele bank and bank all in 30 seconds. You then also have to account for time loss having to summon a new kyatt and those times that you have to get a new RoD/Glory. In my best runs i was getting about 2338 pouches in an hour with as much concentration that i could muster (which probably isn't that much)

Best npc for charms?
If you have the slayer level kill dusties. If you don't then kill greater demons. If you like, slay for the charms.

Summoning
Don't bother selling the visage. Instead make it into a DFS and sell that instead. Just get a friend that has 90+ smithing and is willing to help you. The reason the visage isn't selling is that the DFS is higher. So people rather make it into the DFS and sell it at a higher price then sell at the lower price. The only reason the visage has such a high price tag is that it is related to the DFS. OT: I love having 88 summoning. The unicorn helps a lot on some slayer tasks and it helps out a ton when boss hunting. At Sara GWD i can last for ever with a unicorn. Same at bandos if im tanking in guthans. Also if you don't want to worry about it, just plant some herbs to get a little extra gp on the side.

Getting Slay task w/o seing master.
Other then that spell and talking to them in person there is no other way to get another task.

Returning to game. what should i do?
Remember what you like doing before you stopped playing last? Looks like you enjoyed combat, so maybe do some slaying(either the skill if p2p or just regular monsters if f2p)? Or fish some more and sell those to get some gp for weapons and armor.

Farming Questions
Haven't looked at this much, but it must be in the AoW for a reason. I suggest to do trees along with herbs so you can a mix of exp and gp so you either profit some, break even, or lose little.
-
Charm Calculator
Tbh i don't like it as you have to manually put in which ones you don't want to make and it doesn't consider cost such as those that cost a lot more to make, but only offer a few more exp. Make sure you look at how much they cost before you consider making them.

Mage and Range
It should work the same, but apparently there is a bug that it only works on creatures the require a slayer level to kill while on task. It will work on Nechs and abyssal demons but not any dragons or giants.
-
Mage and Range
I like it just so i don't have to worry about using a different helm while on tasks. Before i got the Hexcrest i used the Focus Sight while ranging. I rarely use magic on tasks, but it is helpful for when i do.
-
Mage and Range
If you can, use YouTube (like i told you in the PM). It has many guides on how to cannon and kill certain tasks. That is where i learned about the spot i now use in Taverly to kill Black Demons. It is 1 square north and 2 squares west of where the cannon is setup in that pic.

Hexcrest and Focus
Well i know that while using the Full Slayer Helmet + CoG + Charge + Ferocious Ring that i did not hit over a 37, which is the max with CoG in Kuradals dungeon pre-Hexcrest. But I was able to hit a 46 using the SoL + Full Slayer Helmet + Wolpertinger (the +7 boost from the scroll) while barraging Nechs. And using the same setup i was able to hit a 46 using Fire Surge on Abyssal Demons in Kuradal's dungeon. I think that the Focus Sight might work and it may only be the Hexcrest that isn't working for the boost. Not to sure, I know that Joe (a fellow TIFer) was saying that he didn't hit any higher on task with the FSH then on a normal task using CoG.

Exp Weekend, math needing checked
I'm going out on a limb and say you're training summoning (got the hint from the word "charms"). You can make 2.3k pouches an hour. I'm going to assume that you're using blues and crimsons first. To get the best exp though i would say get to 89 first and use your blues to make geyser titans, good luck getting the talismans though. If you don't want to make those then do lava titans. Even if you do manage that, i doubt you have 2.3k blue charms unless you been saving up for a long time or you TD a lot. That leaves crimsons. Next would be swamp titans with crimsons. Making swamp titans you can get 859k exp in an hour if you get the 2.3k pouches. Hope that puts it into perspective some.
