The Last One
They'd be the RS equivalent of Picassos. That means they are only ever traded for symbolic amounts of money or through an auction. I think people would pay max cash for one of them, but you can't really offer more, right? Unless you were to offer several trades of 2b each, in which case I think it depends on the cash of the richest person in RS.

fastest crimson charms?
Afaik you can get around 200/hr with a pretty much maxed setup with zspear, so a few more with maul could be possible. However barraging is still at 250/hr I think?

Rock lobster bursting equipment
Ah you want to make trips last longer, eh? *evil laughter* You can already last for hours and hours (longer than battle robes last, for example) with just an sgs and 30ish prayer bonus. So you really don't need to make them last even longer, imo. I get bored after only two hours :P.

A chaotic maul can train both attack and defence, so you're good :). Good luck on 80+ dungeoneering.

What armour is good nowadays
You don't need the stats but I just wrote it that way because I had those stats at the time :). Hence why I don't mention piety in the list of levels but I did mention a bunyip (soul split before bunyip ftw).

fastest crimson charms?
No, but you kill them faster :). How sure are you on this? I am aware that rock lobs are really fast, but has anyone tried this method of killing waterfiends? could it be possible that this is faster for high level players? I think the order of speed is approximately barraging > bursting > chaos tunnels fiends > ancient cavern fiends but black demons are pretty high up there as well. All kinds of waterfiends are a lot cheaper than the lobsters, so they may be more efficient. For example at 500k/hr (really rock bottom) you'd take an hour or so to make money for bursting for an hour.

My post sort of assumes you have all stats at 60-70ish already, I might add a bit about earlier slaying but it'd make the post rather long and it's only a tiny bit of the slaying you will do anyway. For now, you can use 15% strength if you don't want to get piety.

Should I be picking up Herbs?
I don't, and it's only worth it if you can do it without losing time. Even a single second lost on walking, picking, cleaning and dropping would make it rather a waste imo. It's not great xp, after all. I pick up herbs, or items in general, from about 3-5k upwards (and most stackable drops). Sometimes I get the price wrong and pick up stuff like cadantine, but ah well.

Protect Prayers looked down upon
As I understood, it's alright to use all sorts of stuff in simple deathmatches (unicorn, divine, chaotics etc.) but people simply don't want to fight you after a certain point. It's not so much that people consider it dishonourable or anything, it's just pointless to go after a praying target if there are other, easier targets. For dangerous pvp, that is. Of course in your vids (the ones I've seen) it's safe ffa clan wars or something? In such a situation people just don't have a choice to fight, and it really doesn't matter whether you use prayers. As for flaming, it's frustration.

Godsword Discussion
Suck is relative, and the thing with the godsword is that there are alternatives that perform better, are easier to obtain/cost less/have lower requirements. It's not like the dragon scimitar, which probably sucks but at least is the best at its level.

What armour is good nowadays
Your combat level doesn't tell me much tbh but you linked your rs hiscores :). The base slayer gear is as follows (alternatives in brackets): [For all slayer monsters except those mentioned under other weapons] Chaotic rapier (whip) Bandos body + legs (Verac's skirt with either fighter torso or proselyte top) [Depending on prayer/accuracy needs] Fire cape/Soul Wars cape/Ardougne cloak 3 Barrows gloves (your best rfd gloves, at least rune) Dragon boots (rune boots) Amulet of fury (glory) Dragon defender Berserker ring (i)/ferocious ring if slaying in Kuradal's Dungeon (berserker ring, warrior ring) [Most important] Full slayer helmet. [For magic defence on waterfiends/aquanites] Karil's top and elite void skirt (black dragonhide body and chaps) [Crush attacks to use on waterfiends] Chaotic maul (Saradomin sword, Zamorakian spear) [stab attacks for higher-levelled dragons, when not using rapier] Korasi's sword (Zamorakian spear, leaf-bladed sword) Task-specific items such as mirror shields, antifire shields/potions, elemental shields, rock hammers, crystal chimes Cannon (optional, up to personal preference) Slayer setups generally emphasise strength bonus, which increases the average damage of each succesful hit (slayer monsters usually having rather low defence, hitting is not a problem). Secondly, prayer bonus is important to keep the cost of prayer potions down (as you slay with piety on, to increase the speed of your kills. This is cost-effective and highly recommended). As a rule of thumb, +15 prayer bonus or above is good, but don't overdo it (anything above +25 is a waste). Defence and accuracy bonus are usually not fretted over (any defence bonus over 200 will do; if you get hit too often you should be using a protection prayer). Dagganoth, black demon, lesser demon, hellhound, bloodveld and spectre tasks should be cannoned, as it dramatically increases xp rates (although it costs a bit). Some notes on gear: You'll want a fury and a berserker ring before you get bandos plate, and get that before tassets. You'll want accuracy bonus on higher-levelled dragons; if using stab attacks (which you should) you can use the Ardougne cloak 3 which provides you with +6 stab and +6 prayer bonus. Torso + sw cape and fire cape + proselyte are common cheap top/cape combinations; the former is better. Some levels to get for slayer (in approximate order but I'm not sure on the summoning): 68 summoning - bunyip 81 dungeoneering (you need 2 million xp, which takes you to level 80, but allowing some tokens for the scroll of life) - rapier 89 herblore (85 with a +4 stew boost) - extreme potions, superantifires 95 prayer - turmoil and soul split 88 summoning - unicorn 96 herblore (91 with a +5 stew boost) - overload 99 summoning - steel titan I'm sure I missed something but this is most of it. Right now what you want to do is get 70 prayer and either/both Korasi's sword or a Saradomin sword (ss is somewhat better but more expensive, ks is very nice for dragons) but it'd be even better to get a chaotic rapier.

Godsword Discussion
Godswords are pretty sucky but with a Zaros hilt they become one-handed and dart speed, so you better get a good supply of blades, they're going up :P. (just a suggestion I read on an earlier thread about godswords, iirc)

Lack of awful musicianship? That's good, right?

Thanks Sumona!
Well obvously with soul split you can tank them, or anything non-boss (and some bosses, lol), but that's not really worth the trouble (either you flash, which takes concentration, or you keep it on, in which case protect is far better anyway). I'm not sure if ranged beats mage even with only 46 mage, lol, but it'll be cheaper to range.

Why can't F2P have...?
Yeah that's why, no prayer restore, no piety, best stab weapon is gravite rapier... should be fun :P. Tbh I can see a team of f2pers kill the KBD with monk's robes, gravite rapier, power/holy symbol etcetera. You just need 15-20 people :P.

Sounds like your relationships, no?

recommendation of important quest to complete?
Aye quite right, I only use it to spec steels tbh :P. But it's a neat weapon, better than zspear for stab.

Melee Nomad
Rapier, elite void melee w/ deflector or ddefender (depends on whether you want defence or accuracy), fury and such, or ranging as Nifflin said, though I'd bring diamond bolts instead of rune. You can bring normal restores instead of super, as they are both cheaper and restore more lost stats (1:4 instead of 1:3 with brews). This allows you to take 1-2 more brews. Your summoning and magic levels are quite low, try getting at least a tort and 80 mage (if you want to get them anyway, now is the time). Also, don't bother with curses unless you got soul split and turmoil (if meleeing). I highly recommend investing in either an archer's or berserker ring and armadyl chestplate, ranger's boots or fury.

Rock lobster bursting equipment
Don't worry about Ahrim's, void may be like a few points worse, but you'd be better off getting a seer's ring and infinity boots. Proselyte > Verac's for luring. Use a stole, sw cape, proselyte plate and fala shield 3 for luring, wear a mage arena cape when maging. Max mage attack won't make a lot of a difference but it's not like you need prayer bonus. Void skirt/deflector helps you tank ranged attacks (not that you need to, but alright). By the way if you are only bursting for the triple charms, switch to barraging once you can.

Dungeoneering help
What you do is: Do all floors once as quickly as possible (e.g. complexity 1, dungeon meant for 1 person, and as many teammates as you care to find (can be none)). Reset. There is a reset button in the party interface. This will set your current progress to your previous progress. Now rush all floors up to 20 in the same way, and do the rest x:x larges/mediums with as many teammates as you care to find (really recommended you get more than none here). Once you have done all floors you can, reset again, and repeat.
-
recommendation of important quest to complete?
As said above, all quests are worth doing. Only one quest has pretty much no reward (rat catchers iirc) but you do that for the cape :P. While Guthix Sleeps offers 3m and 4*100k xp in a 65+ stat. Blood Runs Deep offers 3*150k xp in a 75+ combat stat. Nomad's Requiem offers a Soul Wars cape and 70 zeal (100 zeal is about 270k prayer xp at level 80). Fairy Tale parts 1-3 offer magic secateurs (increase herb yield), fairy rings (many useful teleports) and the ability to use rings w/o the staff (really useful). Void questline 1-3 offer 50 pest points and an elite void top. If you still need void, this is the line to do.

Farming *NEW QUESTION*
I'd get farming juju and plant torstol, magics, palms. Well actually I'd do torstol only but you sound like you want the xp NOW :P.

meleeing jad
Meleeing without kiting won't speed up the caves much. Also, if you've got a cls, use a whip. It's basically the same dps and it's also the same speed as 360's, which makes kiting easier.

Post pictures of your PoH
The idea is that I appear in the middle garden, run a clockwise lap through the menagerie and chapel to restore, then end up near my glory/portal rooms. I have since added some more gardens by the way, this was just my original plan.
