Dragonfire shield or blessed spirit shield or nothing
It's a good shield, for pvp and bosshunting and wyverns, and probably one of the better tank pieces in defence bonus per -range attack. Then again you could consider a blessed spirit shield, which is much cheaper and has prayer bonus. I personally think the dfs is worth it if you do the sort of thing a dfs is good at, 14m isn't too much for the upgrade over obsidian/bss/chaos considering the +7 strength.

Construction 60 -> 75
I second this, with mahogany though. I did 60-75 with larders in a week or so and it was really quite doable, but if you ever find yourself bored or annoyed by the clicking then mahogany tables (level 52) with sc hammers is really fast for the time you spend actually doing construction (I think it's in the region of 1.5m xp/hr) though your hammers would run out at a rate of 30 per hour :P.

Battlestaves, water and air (I think water might break-even considering all the orb drops from waterfiends, air costs a little more & is higher xp).

Dungeoneering DPS
He changed the weapon strength bonusus on all weapons to get those graphs, that is, he made the scaling smooth and consistent as opposed to chaotic. It's an 'ideal' weapon balance if you will. Those graphs are quite interesting, it's funny to see the small 'bump' around fractite for example. It also shows that t11 melee is much less of an improvement than t11 range, somehow. I wonder if Jagex ever considered such graphs?

Crystal bow
479 max with broads, void, xrange, rigour. 392 with full crystal bow and the same. You lose 20 accuracy (up to 28 with pernix top) and increasing with each degrade. The max lowers, too. The crossbow attacks every 5 ticks on rapid, the crystal bow 4 ticks I think? So that's 5 bow hits per 4 crossbow hits, e.g. 1960 vs 1916 max damage in 20 ticks. I never said you'd be using broads though, crossbows should be used with rune, ruby or diamond bolts. For rune bolts, the max is 522 for 2088 max damage in 20 ticks.

200k dung tokens, which chaotic?
Well, you're going to make a major change to your pure if you get a chaotic melee weapon. You could stick to your lower attack level (though you should get 60 for dds/claws) and get a chaotic staff to barrage.

Slayer efficiency questions
Considering Norriie's stats, she will max melees before getting 99 slayer. Ranged xp is much more relevant, as are effigies and charms. And if at all possible some collateral prayer xp wouldn't hurt either (ashes). All points where LRC don't exactly shine. They are some of the most annoying tasks to cannon, too.

TIF is bit over-moderated
In short, it comes down to moderator's discretion and how we percieve the whole of your posts. And this will launch the next rant about how we can't possibly judge your intentions :rolleyes:.

TIF is bit over-moderated
Cheeesy, you may consider that you haven't been the nicest person around this thread, and that TEF did have botting scripts on the site. Right now we don't entirely trust you when it comes to why you put that link in your sig. I'm being honest here: I suspect you only put the link there to see what we'd do with it and then complain about it. If you can prove to me you only put it there to be genuinly helpful to all who read your sig (ahem) then we can consider putting it back, but right now we don't really feel like it. Jagex recommends that you don't use any sort of third party software besides regular Windows mousekeys. We don't want to disallow certain commonly used programs (SK, AHK) entirely but if we're unconvinced of your good intentions we will remove links. Now on that thread, it was posted in context, quite relevant. In short, if you were a nice user with nothing whatsoever to do with pages of botting scripts, then yes, we may have left the link. As it stands you don't have our trust in this.

200M in all Skills
Omg! I have done something better/more than Kingduffy! I have played like over 25 games of castle wars! Wooo go me. I have a higher Conquest rank :D. Impressive isn't it :P. But yes, welcome to Kingduffy. Good luck on 120 runecrafting :thumbup:.

96-99 magic
I was thinking of using battle robes to save a few runes, but do you think virtus mask + ahrim top and bottom with wolpertinger would be better, or maybe virtus robe bottoms with ahrim top + hood/seers helm with wolper? I'd certainly go with the mask + Ahrim's and wolper, yes. Not so much because it's more efficient - that's not really a concern (if you wanted to be efficient you'd superheat/low-alch while skilling). But increasing your staying power & damage output does make barraging more efficient. If you can get more virtus pieces, that's always nice of course.

44-60 Mining Advice
That's going to be annoying no matter how you spin it but you could be done in ~10 hours of iron. You can bank it at the resource dungeon in the dwarven mines.

Mouse Keys
That's ridiculous. But yes, it can be used to bot, so be careful using it.

Slayer efficiency questions
1) I use my whip on dagganoth and abberant spectres. I do use my rapier on bloodveld, hellhounds and such. The cost is pretty high at multicombat tasks that use range attacks, and with cannon + familiar you're getting around 30% of your kills by melee - the small overall damage increase isn't worth the 10% rapier charge per task to me. Of course if you have many more tokens than you need, you should rapier those tasks. 2) If not maul (and cls for wyverns) then a Saradomin sword if you do waterfiends, and a staff of light if you do ice strykewyrms (when you get them). 3) In the gear you listed (+19 prayer) piety drains 60/147 points per second, which is 66 seconds per dose at 27 points per dose. Adding a protect prayer would increase your prayer use by half, or 44 seconds per dose. For most tasks, 10 pray pots should do just fine, 44 minutes worth plus the 83 points you have from your level. 4) You should cannon all tasks. The basic idea is that you put down a cannon in an area with a lot of spawns close to eachother. In single combat, closeness is preferred over lots of spawns provided you have enough spawns to keep busy. You should make sure large monsters are always positioned over the cannon. In multicombat, you want lots of spawns around the cannon. In short, you want to maximise cannonball usage while maintaining your highest primary weapon damage output (and familiar if applicable). 5) I'd say go with urns, it's really quite convenient. Banking is good with a yak only. 6) Yes, unblock them. Cannon them in Taverly dungeon, you can pray protect melee + piety wearing Bandos. There will be a lot of noobs/bots there, so if you can steal a demon just over half health, do it, but ignore demons under half health unless you can get the killing blow perhaps. These are 300 kills per hour picking up each charm and banking as many ashes as possible (and storing more in your yak). 7) You should use a bunyip on single combat tasks you don't need a bob on, or a unicorn if you need more healing (mithril dragons, wyverns and waterfiends if you do these). Get one level for a geyser titan and use that in multicombat. You can protect pray on hellhounds, mutated bloodveld and abberant spectres (practically required for the last two) so no need for healing there. 8) I'm not 100% sure either but it probably can't hurt to buy a lot of pray pots now. A big part of efficient slaying is blocking and skipping the bad tasks - even cannon/turmoil/overload/steel titan can't turn warped tortoises into a good task. I recommend blocking jungle and desert strykewyrms and warped torts at least. Skip or block fire giants, dust devils, spiritual mages, gargoyles, LRC. You can check this for an effigy-focused task list. Since you still need a lot of charms, I would recommend doing wyverns and waterfiends. Blue dragons, nechs and abyssals are mediocre tasks but with a yak they can be some alright profit (and ranged xp in the case of nechs, which you need).

^Got one of them questing messages too, completely useless. I'm 101% sure that the worst tip.it quest guide would beat 200 hours on the RSOF/in-game with 'volunteer experts' trying to figure out a quest. 2 more, about 2m xp to go. Took me 16 days to gather 1.2m xp after 96 summon, so I'm guessing one month.

How much of a difference would Turmoil make?
Usually dragon bones are more efficient than frost bones afaik (unless you nex which you can't really do without a yak). Turmoil would be anywhere from 5% to 15% more dps, depending on your opponent's attack, defence, strength and hp.

96-99 magic
If you're barraging in Soul Wars, consider buying a virtus piece to increase your staying power, and use a good familiar as always of course.

Returning Member questions
For LRC you want a lava titan, but your mining level is too low to be of any use there, as you need 80. You can still buy the gold and superheat it for around 120k magic + smithing xp/hr (at a small cost). If you want to train your combats and you value total xp (e.g. you want high levels across the board) then slayer is the best way to level attack/defence/ranged/magic/strength/summoning and, surprise surprise, slayer together.

Crystal bow
Below chins, darts, knives, Karil's crossbow, handcannon, obsidian throwing rings, magic shortbow, probably god bows, zaryte bow and crossbows too. It still beats um, rune javelins?

That's nice, farming is so rare? Attack and woodcutting before fletching, too, surprises me.

Penance Master Horn...
With a yak you're talking 2m/hr at least, bots and all included. I wouldn't do queen runs for charging the horn. The waves are way slower high up, and although there isn't any evidence to indicate that it's faster to do waves 1-5 only, it seems to be experienced by people that each wave gives the same amount of potential (and that penalties don't count).
