Best monster money maker?
No single monster, but the Kiln is the highest gp/hr followed by Nex, glacors then frosts.

Armadyl - GWD Slaughter Part 2 Sat 16th June 2012
I'd like to mention that Kree's magic attack seems to be blocked by ranged defence as well: ^This person knows his stuff. So yeah... Also polypore+leech mage is very effective. More so than rcbow (depending on your stats).

Powerslaying Guide
Or you could post something constructive? Slayer is nowhere near as complex as you think. It's actually really simple: kill stuff ASAP. Everything there is to the skill is: kill as many lifepoints worth of monsters you can per unit of time.

Lolz - No More Fisho
That's weird 'cause I regularly got berserker with the same teams when before I never got it when I bound my gaunts. Tick waster ;-D How is that wasting ticks u goon Berserker isn't really an indication of how much you contributed to a floor. That's why dgs stopped handing out dps medals (along with the focus on individual pathing). Now with the keybelt, dg is really just about how well you can solo path. If you get unlucky, you'll get many gds and therefore berserker.

Starting from Scratch
???????? Find the in the chaos tunnels. Use the wiki. Outside near the gamers grotto are green dragons http://www.tip.it/runescape/?page=gamers_grotto.htm Apparently not, my bad :oops:. Clan Wars tele got removed (shows how much I used it). I guess that means you're stuck with the dragons north-west of Edgeville.

Dungeoneering Points
Augury and Rigour will be free when the combat overhaul comes (tokens will be refunded) so those aren't exactly crucial. For Nex, you'll want ccbow (blood stage at least, idk how royale does). Eagle-eye kite works well too. For Bandos GWD, a maul is nice.

What would be ideal gear (ranged since im 76 ranged) and ideal location to do green dragons? And should I keep bones and hides or bury bones and focus on hides? Ideal gear, void range deflector w/ acp (void only takes time to get, and you get some combat xp) and rune crossbow w/ runite bolts. Realistically, since you're probably not 85 herblore, regular void range with an antifire shield and the same weapon. Just increase ranged attack as much as you can. Location depends a bit on your risk, ideally the Forinthry Dungeon if you're alone, but the spot near Clan Wars has quick banking with a games neck and isn't as dangerous. You should bank and sell bones and hides.

Kalphite queen, melee or range second form?
Well, assuming the KQ has a max of 300 and you have 50% soak, you take her max from 300 to 250. The average hit would be 141 ((200*100 + 100*225)/300). An overall dps reduction of 6%, which isn't too great imo. Bandos is 3% more dps or thereabouts and does have a little ranged soak, so I wouldn't bother with gano.

Farming. I paid for turmoil (that's ~200m, in case you don't know) with farming, never had a cash pile over 5m before that (and didn't have over 10m until after that). Don't woodcut or mine for cash, focus on levelling cheaper, quicker skills first. Questing is a great way to explore the game and mostly free or very cheap. Killing dragons is generally better money than any type of skilling at similar stats if you got a whip or rune crossbow, e.g. green drags @ 60-70 combats, frosts at 85+ dg.

Herblore training for Ovls
Super prayers are very slow to make, something like 600 doses per hour. It's not worth using them at any boss, but for PvP they are nice (because in the end, the value of defeating someone far exceeds the minutes spent grinding bones :P). I'd make supplies for 2k+ overloads at least.
-
Ganodermic beasts setup
Increase magic attack bonus as much as you can and keep whatever prayer bonus that gives you. Maxed equipment (excluding comp cape), that's about 6 (Virtus set + arcane). If you're using Ahrims, maybe Akrisae's hood is better, and/or an Ardougne cloak 3/4. Wolper > Ovls I'm pretty sure, provided you scroll when your magic level drops. Cannoning is pretty good if you want to pay attention. Free ranged xp and more effigies. Whatever you do, Ahrim's hood is a waste of money (repair-wise). A farseer helm has the same cost, mage attack and it doesn't degrade. It can also hold combat scrolls (but there are no offensive scrolls capable of hitting ganos that you'd want to use afaik).
-
Kalphite queen, melee or range second form?
She's theorized to be 100% accurate with both magic and ranged. Strangely, her protect prayers are not 100% effective. She's the only monster with this system. It makes her much stronger :D.

See posts > itam back!?!? :( :( :(
-
Kalphite queen, melee or range second form?
Void mage is only 30% accuracy, no damage. And although void range does beat fsh in raw dps, the KQ does have a bit of def (I believe). Though most of her def is from prayers. Void mage doesn't usually beat regular mage gear without fsh :P.

Then we can start reversing the 10 lp/constitution update, because the last zero becomes meaningless :(.
-
The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
The problem is having both beople fighting with a 499lp boost. (Yes, 499) I doubt you'll find many people fighting in skulled torva. I agree we need lp boosts to be available more cheaply. But in the current system, 15k lp would make for an extremely boring fight. Even 2k lp would, because there's no combo that strong (remember uni scrolls/brews heal tons more also).

I suspect you will once we have crits and a million different specs. True, but crits are lucky big hits too :(.

Hunter xp rates
Draconics go from 160k at level 80 to about 280k at level 99. 200k+ is possible in the 85-90 range. Butterflies are always slower than draconics, even at 99 hunt w/ bear they don't break 160k afaik. The agility xp doesn't make up for it technically. Scentless is not worth it afaik. Favours are, of course.
-
Kalphite queen, melee or range second form?
I'd advise magic on the second form. It hits well, even on the first form actually (you can solo the KQ off-task using blood barrage and ss flashing, don't need a unicorn).
-
Fight Caves
Good setup, if you can, get an arcane spirit shield. Curses - use leech mage all the time (reduces Jad's max, or it should anyway). Bring enough magic boosting potions + Vecna's.
-
The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
"Currently, a common source of disappointment is being killed very quickly in PvP with little chance to react. With larger life pool, players will be encouraged to think tactically rather than relying on lucky, big hits." How boring :(. 400 lp boost is more than enough to avoid that tbh, we don't need more.

Abby demons
Not true, surge on glacors and SoA for slayer are both perfectly good ways to train magic (along with money/slayer xp respectively). SoA is faster xp than any non-combat magic as well.

Auras.
Penance isn't better than reverence for you, as you're not at the level of Nexing or anything. If you want to get into bossing, go with vampirism/sharpshooter (if primarily into Nexing) or reverence (if other bosses).

Q
M&B is still the same, I haven't made anything for it recently. It's typically a game I play for a month, start fiddling, am not able to change what I want (due to it being hardcoded) and then quitting again :P.
