CM for waterfiends, or rapier, not cls. Don't use an abyssal titan but a wolpertinger.

Congratulations :). Now that you have an iron titan you can always go waterfiends for an hour to get that yak :).

Bought Bandos back, slaying now - doing mithril dragon tasks with SoA (8 kills in an overload dose + time to spare. Like +98 magic attack bonus, lol). Black demons are still good even with bots though they nicked my loop half :( :( :(. So far: 7 skips 6 tasks done. 1 effigy (agility). 120k to 93 woodcut and 200k to 87 fishing. I want 88 mining/fishing/hunter and 90 thieving ASAP, and I guess 88 runecrafting wouldn't hurt either but to keep all other stats (agility) ahead of rc is hard enough as it is. Getting 88 without effigies, which will take next week's pengs + troll invasion and then some 110k xp more (3x pengs, or 2x pengs and 2-3x strange rocks).

Arcane stream is absolutely crucial, without it you can't expect a good killrate. I don't see why someone 100+ dg even went maging something without one. Chaotic staff is just about worth it probably, if only for the dungeoneering xp you have to get anyway.

@ Surgebox hits: Fire surge with sol maxes at 440, a csb hit of 110. I'm guessing that the double damage + 80 applies as well (so 960 and 300) and that the Stone of Jas boost is added to the csb's 25% (so 25% + 5% SoJ for example, effectively 20%).

Depending on how many overloads you have. 4k+ doses: Everything. 1k+ doses: Everything but abberant spectres, dagannoth, maybe velds (but space is an issue if you have herbicide/bonecruncher etc.). 200+ doses: Metal dragons, wyverns, ice strykewyrms. Save for bossing to make money. You should probably also overload anything you mage with Storm of Armadyl. The spell is so expensive that it's probably cheaper to save runes by making each spell hit that little bit higher with overloads. 1m slayer xp all overloaded should take about 240-300 doses, cannon + titan everywhere.

i forget who but i remember someone (possible a friend) who had each "click" of the mousewheel do an action (cleaning herbs) and was getting ridiculous speeds of cleaning the herbs. since 1 "click" = 1 computer input then it should still follow the 1 input = 1 output rule? I seriously doubt Jagex will be amenable to that line of reasoning, in the same way that pressing and releasing a key are considered part of the same action.

If you're using berserker (i) (far better than onyx) also bring a ROW switch. Nvm Octarine got that one :P. Check out the tip.it guide as well, it has some setups that would suit you methinks.

Storm of Armadyl will hit 145-305 at 106 magic, 110-270 without. That's equivalent (dps wise, not KO-wise) to max hits of 450 and 380, 160 and 90 higher than blood barrage. It also uses only one space on runes. Storm of Armadyl is, however, more expensive, doesn't hit multiple targets, doesn't allow you to freeze with ice barrage (if you were using entangle you might as well go ice barrage straight away) and it's somewhat more annoying to hybrid with due to the left-click autocast.

[hide][/hide] You can't actually see that was my first, so: [hide][/hide]

Got 94 dungeoneering just now. I don't know why. 25 minute abd, got survivor (lol prom kite + galli body drops first gd).

I'd say melee, you don't really need ranged xp. With a yak you wouldn't be able to survive very well without soul split but since you use a war tortoise anyway you can just take a few pieces of food every time you bank,

Basically it's going to increase your melee damage output by about 10% for most slayer monsters, other than waterfiends (where soul split is crucial) and abberant spectres as Balthamel mentioned. It's more significant on high-defence bosses as the attack boost comes into play as well, perhaps as high as a 15% boost on Graardor.

This... the lower level the resource, the less quests it requires etc. the more bots you'll find. It has as flipside that training herblore, prayer and smithing for example have not been so cheap in a very long time, but that mostly helps high-level players with bosshunting incomes. Farming and dailies aren't botted (that I know of) and will still profit quite decently. Look up Laura's AOW guide on dailies.

Glacors send much love to your future iron titan ;). Summoning is the best skill :thumbup:.

It's not an issue, jagex removed the "max hit" splats, as 99% of the time it wasn't your max hit. Now max hit splats only come up with the very high end of the hits you can do. I believe this is correct; it is something I have also noticed on the Hexhunter bow. I don't seem to be hitting the orange hit splats as much, but I am still hitting high. This. Hailstorm magic damage used to be 100% high hit splat, not anymore. Also I hit 960 with a max hit splat twice on glacors, which is exactly my fire surge max (440) doubled + 80. Hits below 960 didn't activate this. I'm quite happy that max hit splats are more like actual max hit splats now :).

Not to mention that fletching is now more expensive (with broad arrows) :(.

Killed 24 glacors today in about 30 minutes? Using Storm of Armadyl and staff. It wasn't a proper trip, I took a couple of minutes to tell a new glacor hunter about melee/storm switches. Also sold my Bandos, not to afford ABS but to have some cash free. O and I got 97 magic. Did another glacor trip, 2 overloads no brews used except one dose on the last kill cause that got botched by me running out of Armadyl runes. And ovl wore off 2 secs after as well. 32 kills in 40 minutes, 48/hr. Guess that'll go up just a tiny bit with 99 mage, cstaff, csb, and some better timed looting. 50/hr shouldn't be too far off. Got an elite, no good reward (forgot to screenshot) about 120k in all. Meerkat scrolls. And I did three floors, a 14:07 abd (thanks Moon/Usa/Nikcevic/Redbatt) and a 20:something flesh (was trio, with Reflector instead of Redbatt) and a 23:something flesh (was gravecreeper, with Redbatt instead of Nikcevic). 150k xp in under an hour, considering that I died about 10 times...

1) Yes you could. You would profit a lot from getting a chaotic rapier and slayer task as well. 2) It depends on whether you want only summoning xp, or also another kind of xp, or even money. The fastest charms is barraging, which means smoke barrage for you. The fastest charms + magic xp is also barraging of course. The fastest ranged xp and charms together is either chinning nechs or ranging+cannoning crawlers, depending on whether you want effigies or not. For each major charm-dropped there's a couple of collateral gains that you have to consider.

Just wondering, do you have any confirmation of that rate? I'd expect a rate much closer to that of tds, which I believe is around 1/85, so about 1/80 for glacors?

I'm probably going to save up points until I get ~3000, so I can buy aquanites and no-cape strykewyrms - they are trimmed comp cape reqs and I'm not slaying after 99 anyhow. In other news, I was rich for a few minutes today - traded my Bandos/claws/cash/torstols for full Virtus + arcane + ragefire boots + Armadyl staff. Aka taking setup pics (thanks Druvovic).

Funny first post you got. The way you rank hunter under agility :P.

Replace arcane with an obsidian shield, use dragon/infinity boots, Verac's skirt + Guthan's plate for tank gear, and you got yourself a setup for about 40m. With a staff of light and ice barrage you have a 10m max setup, but that's not nearly as good as Storm of Armadyl and will certainly require a melee switch for Ahrim and Karil, meaning you'll rapier + ks spec Akrisae as well.

It doesn't say it increases min hit by 25% - it says it increases it by 'the same amount' which I take to mean the amount your max hit is reduced by, not the same percentage, because otherwise it would be entirely useless, because all min hits are lower than max hits (ikr :blink:).

I killed 19 glacors today, three shards. I don't know how I got to 19 because I died first, after 1.5 overload doses, then did a 1 overload trip. 19 kills in ~27 minutes isn't too bad, 42 kph, but it should be 45+. I guess not dying would help.
