Omg this brings me back to my first 99 which was firemaking. Meh if only I waited like 5 years. lol people are going to be missing out on all the fun of line fires. Hmm, QBD sounds epic. But 5 kbds in its mouth? I'm guessing we won't be stuffing and displaying a QBD head in our POH. Finally the month I've been looking for! Well from the Runefest vids these were my most anticipated updates. 1) QBD + Kalphite King 2) Player owned ports 3) Runespan 4) 120 Dg saga

Well Summoning should be 0 time, but I think he used effigys for like 30m+ slayer xp or more. Then his left over attack xp he should be killing something that drops charms unless he has 200m banked now. Depending on how you play though Summoning should be 0 time at least. It takes a lot more time to get 200M attack at something that drops charms than it would to get 200M at Ape Atoll. You can't discard this large amount of time spent gathering charms. Well idk what would be faster training attack at black demons with cannon picking up charms. Or getting attack at ape atoll then barraging rock lobs or something for charms. Either way he'll be getting 0 xp in a skill because he is 200m in both range or mage, but assuming he doesn't already have 200m summoning banked. He would need to do something for charms. I would agree that runespan Rc or even ZMI is faster than gathering and using charms, but you should just get charms via combat w/o losing much time. Most of his xp was gained back during effigies. I wouldn't even be surprised if 50m of his slayer xp was effigies. Don't forget he did a bit of Slayer via crawlers, although a majority on task.

Apparently esteem lowers your fail rate on siphoning runes. So I'm guessing this would greatly benefit xp/hr. Says on rs wikia rank 5 esteem has half the fail rate of rank 10. It could be wrong but if that's true, Xp/hr could get very fast.

Whoever finds the undead soul first and post pic wins. I'm looking for it atm. Found a blood pool 150 xp. Soul esswraith is 109 xp. Not quite as good as the pool. Looks like there is living and undead soul, haven't found either but off for now. Bought rank 8 esteem pretty cheap. Good luck everyone.

Ye no member gimmicks this week.

Meh gtg look at pine needles under a microscope and only an hour away. Post pics people if its something one time!

As an approximation you could say it is 3/8 the speed of regular chinning because the time between attack turns is 4/3 times longer and 1/2 the range xp normally gotten would be defence xp instead So around 260k XP/hr. Better to do it then. That would make chinning 700k/hr lol. I dont think even the chin+cannon+steel titan method is that fast, either way the titan and cannon dont give defence xp. I got 99 range last week using ovls/geyser/void + def/rigour/cannon and was managing 550k ranged xp/hr (medium fuse, more chins but adds about 40-50k extra xp). I can say w/o a cannon or familiar 470k ranged xp/hr is possible. If he added pernix top instead of black dhide body could be faster. I also used sw cape, demon neck, ring of life. So someone could replace those with avas device, ranged ammy, tokkulzo/archers ring. archers (i) is xp waste but if you have it even better. Add rune minotaur for defence xp unless there's a better familiar. So I guess it's safe to say for future people going for 5b. Saving defence for last may be best because of the effigy nerf and should have 200m att/slay/str/hp/summ/range and maybe like 100m def, before having to consider this method.

Does anyone know the xp/hr of def xp using red chinchompas? Basically, if S U O M I left defence for last maybe it would've been faster to chin rather than melee. He said in his RS vid though that he gets 180k attack xp/hr so idk if long fuse chinning is more than 180k xp/hr. Of course when he got Defence effigies weren't nerfed so he wouldn't have known.

Lame got quest cape and did the 3 Burthrope remakes. Oh well I didn't do them for the spins, but it's sure a nice chunk of xp if you did get rewarded all the spins. Eh, not a very exciting week and last week was no update. Was hoping for Runespan but maybe first update in May.

The first article was interesting. For comp capes on the news feed, if I remember correctly say you lost your comp cape due to an update and you got it back (ex. Morytania tasks) it would say you unlocked the cape (so it would look like more people are getting it when they're really not) <-- I could be wrong though! I think comp capes will always keep some prestige because it has the best stats in the game. However, I wouldn't be surprised if we reached over 20k max capes by 2015. Comp cape (t) will most likely always be rare unless they shorten or remove the castle wars req (which I think they will do it with the 10000 problems it brings up)

Would make sense. "see the future" Maybe the actual future of Runescape.

Ye I decided to use soul wars cape. Might change later because for now only maintaining 1hr trips (3 ovl + 3 renewals) Here's my cannon set up, only 2 spots manage to get hit but Idk how I could possibly fix it so cannon hits more spots. Glaviens, arma, fury can't afford atm except as item lend I can afford ranger ammy and/or archers ring, but already died with 3.5m in chins so decided to use rol I decided to try an hour on medium fuse and that made a world of difference Trial 3 (medium fuse @ 93 ranged) 740k xp/hr, however I used about 450-500chins more for 40-50k extra xp 564k ranged xp/hr 174k hp xp/hr Edit: only counting cannonballs and chinchompas its about 4-6 gp/xp. Not bad at all! 1600 chins (short fuse, 913ea) = 1460k 3000 cannonballs (281ea) = 843k about 530k range xp for 2303k 2303/530 = 4.3 gp/xp.

Good Luck! Also, if you have time always peak around at tip.its guides! They can be a good tool for finding out stuff you would never have thought of.

Is it me or is the top 15 kicking it into high gear. Jake - 22m xp Elias - 44m xp Elvis - 29m xp Pope712 - 17m xp Paulrat3 - 25m xp Also looks like Zarfot is rank 15 now. Gained 0 xp and in the top 15 for over a year. Pretty crazy. Anyone know what Jake's plans are after wc/fm? He'll easily get them next week.

thx for the tip totally forgot about item lending. Looks like glaviens would help the most or fury.

Thx for the reply. Did a 1 hr test and managed 690k xp/hr(530k ranged). This is what I used 1476 chinchompas (short fuse) 2523 cannonballs (ran out at about 57mins) 690k overall 530k range 160k hp Set up Helm - Void ranger helm Body - Black d'hide top Legs - elite void legs Amulet - Demon Horn (don't have the cash atm for fury) Ring - Ring of life Cape - Soul wars cape Shield - Deflector gloves - void gloves boots - snakeskin boots Used rigour <-- Helps a lot Used ovls Summoned geyser titan familiar world with 1k+ ppl Edit trial 2 704k overall xp/hr (1-2k extra from titans melee att) 535k ranged xp/hr 167k hp xp/hr 1515 chins used 2.8k cannonballs used

Simply Whats the gp/xp(just on the chins) and xp/hr for red chincompas 90-99 range with ovls + rigour I'll be chinning ape atoll skeletons. I don't really need to have pots factored in, just chins and maybe cannonballs if thats worth it. My set up Void elite archers i deflector black d-hide body amulet of ranging snakeskin boots avas alerter Also how much gp/xp extra would it be if I added a cannon? Just want 99 range asap for hex + saggi arrows

Agreed. Especially the 6 pairs of boots of which none are useful can do with an overhaul. The shields are pretty bad too, with all ranged weapons being 2h, the best melee weapons also 2h and all mages requiring csb. Most other items are nifty at the level they require and grow obsolete quickly. It'd be nice if all the slayer drops allowed some things that are normally not available like bn/hex/hood (and hailstorm to some degree) do very well. The boots could be replaced with three tops and three legs or something. I think it would be cool if slayer monsters gave the slayer xp for killing them. Split it among the party members just like how resources are. Could maybe snag 200-500 slay xp/large. Not overpowered imo, and then you could almost train every skill in dungeoneering. Agility would still be difficult because just puzzles/doors. Also, I don't really count getting a slayer task then dungeoneering, because that requires a source outside Daemonheim.

@Couple posters above Top 15 already requires 2.3b xp (top 17 actually). So 2.1b + 100m dung xp still wouldn't cut it, and by then top 15 could be 2.4-2.5b+ .

Would probably be better for him to make ceremonial swords rather than burial armor. Definitely not afk, but it's over 300k xp/hr and might even be cheaper. Depends on how well you make the swords. Too bad Jagex doesn't let us alch perfect swords gotten like 200 of them.

He needs 700m xp and lots of players who grind heavily tend to crash early. S U O M I, Drumgun, Jake are the only players I know that have been grinding heavily for the past three years. There are lots of consistent players, but I'm talking like 10-15+ hrs/day. Most can pull that off for a few months, then Baaam bored of Rs. I think Jdelacroix is a perfect example, his best day is somewhere between 2-4m xp (not counting summ/effigies/dg tokens spent), yet he is rank 4, and has even been rank 2 (overall xp), while players like S U O M I have 20m legit days in various buyables.

I would sell floors but thats because I'm 120. Sell floors to 30m. Stake 30m, then stake 60 stop at 120m (doubling on win streak is risky but worth it imo, could possibly do 3 doubles, I stay safe play 2). Or lose on either the 30 or 60 (it happens) and sell another 30m worth of floors. Keep doing that so bank every 120m. And pretend you're at 0 again.

Green098 got kicked out of the top 15 by Paulrat3. Sad no more girls in the top 15. Looks like Zarfot will finally lose his spot too. He's been inactive and in the top 15 for over a year lol.

My inspiration was my friends I suppose. I played a bit in early RS2 like 2003 to 2004 around the neo pet/diablo 2/GTA 3 era. I didn't really play much because my parents didn't have a computer and I could only play at my friends, and well he had 1 computer and RS is definitely no fun with 2 people and 1 computer. I got back into the game around 2006, when my parents got a computer and dial-up. Same time I had another friend that would play and we'd pick up arrows in the wildy. So I started doing that at my own house, and got my best friend into the game too. Didn't get serious playing till 2009, and thats the year I became member. Was f2p for a long time and like level 60 lol. Now that I'm out of HS and in college I play tons because of all the spare time and living on my own so can play till like 2am, like 4-5am on the weekends. I suppose the reason I still play is because I want to max level, and I see how fast people are doing it these days so imo its a reasonable goal. I'm not the fastest person as I average 1-2m xp/week (except when I got 120 dg, than like 7m weeks), but I'm getting closer every day. I may quit soon though, seeing as I'll get my BA next spring and will need to get a job to pay off over 40k in student loans lol...
