Hunter training
Red sallys are not the best. They are slightly worse than penguins and worse than the falconry if you have a bonecrusher. You're already 70 though, you should never be leveling hunter outside of herblore habitat unless you highly value agility and can barehand butterflies. The seeds are too valuable to do anything else. Utilize all boosts (oog lag spa, arctice bear etc) and hunt jadinkos.

Getting fire/lava cape
If you can afford them, rune bolts are significantly better on jad.

Juju Farming Potions
Yes its boostable, but just go do penguins/red sallys. Shouldn't take more than a few hours at 80 k exp/hr. By far one of the easiest skills to level timewise. do this to 70, use common jadinkos to 74 for seeds and then farm the herbs, then hunt the lvl 74 ones for the seconds to match the herbs you got.

Juju Farming Potions
74 hunter to gather the seeds and seconds. 64 herblore to make the potion. Also 70 farming for growing the herb. The only thing that effects catch rate of the jadinkos significantly is hunter level so an arctic bear/ooglag spa dip is recommended to catch them faster and thus gathering seeds faster. Farm one herb, make a potion, take a sip, then harvest the rest for more herbs than you otherwise would have gotten. Keep all herb seeds, the other potions are useful in their areas and also the farming of the herbs is a nice exp reward, and making the potions is ok exp as well. Edit Damnit I got double ninjad

What happened to the community?
There are two kinds of scapers. Those who find playing efficiently fun. And those who find not playing efficiently fun. The efficient people arent going to waste time in game being polite with people. I'm probably one of those "rude" people. Im not playing this game to blow sunshine up your butt. Im playing to accomplish my goals. Which outside of dungeoneering doesn't involve interacting with people begging for help. If i want to help people I post in H&A, if I want to play RS i play RS There are still nice people that play who arent jerks like me though... 1. Find them. 2. Add them to your friends list. 3. ???? 4. Profit! Or in the case of people who play "just for fun" step 4 would be "Have fun!".

Hunting, Herblore, and other
1. The boost from the spa in ooglag is better and free. However the best would be to get the level imo. 2. To get from 68 to 70 the best options are penguins, red sallys, or the falconry if you wasted tokens on a bonecrusher. All are around 80 k exp/hr and the two levels should go relatively fast. 3. Consult Grimy's spreadsheets for the best exp/gp trees. If money isn't an issue do the highest level trees you can. In addition do herb runs now as well because they still profit and give paltry exp. 4. Snapdragon. Again grimy's spreadsheets have the best profitable herbs for with/without jujus and with/without a scroll of life. 5. Add me in game and ill duo c6 rush them with you. :thumbsup: Also the above poster stated 85% chance of life, note that this is with supercompost being utilized.

Bandos chestplate..
And who has said that its over rated...*glances at jrkrr*...oh yeah. We mostly agree its well worth it *after* getting turmoil/extremes/yak. In fact I tell people to buy it and use it while they make money, then sell it when they have the cash+value of bandos to buy one of those three things.

Best Steel/Iron dragon method?
If you have a yak steels and irons can be "ok" money for maxed players with a CR, extremes, turmoil and soul split. Around a mil an hour. Melee is the best way to go, range is pretty terrible for speed even with broad/addy bolts. Mage is ok but not good money, and really only should be done if you have an arc stream necklace and an SoL. On task obviously use a full slayer helm but you said you're camping so that may not be the case, then use elite void set up with a d defender as the stab bonus is huge and you should be praying melee anyway. Cheers

What I didn't bargain for...
I voted yes for free trade and the wildy. I don't regret it. Im frustrated because with this update came a bunch of retired players who now feel the need to post blatantly wrong information in the Help and Advice section of these forums. They bring their 2007 suggestions and when they are corrected about the new methods people have developed in the last three years being better they begin to flame about how there's no way they could be wrong because it was the best way to do things back then. Honestly seems like there is a new one of these people every other day since free trade and the wildy came back. /rant.

Mah monies.
All of this implies that I have done the quests for the juju potions (and the herblore requirement), am capable of 8 herb runs a day, and that I have the requirements for the quests for korasi's sword. Ugh. (NONE of which apply to me) The 20 mil a week is not including juju potions. That's farming toadflax for 100 k profit per run. Dailies are also easy to make 1 mil a day and MTK is a mil a week. With torstol/snapdragon and jujus you can pull 20 mil in a week from herb runs alone. With dailies and MTK you're up to 30 mil.

Road to 99 slayer
Just get money until you get 95 prayer. Use this to make dg much more enjoyable (soul split basically means food is a near non factor). Once you start dging do herb runs every 1.5 hours and dailies before you log out and by the time you hit 85 dg for your rapier+goodies you should have cash for extremes. If not camp frost dragons for cash until you do. Otherwise you should still be doing your dailies and herb runs. Should more than cover the costs of ppots and cannoning your tasks.

Mageing metal dragons
And seeing as dragons don't have a high magic level but do have a high defense level CoG is better. That and the fact that the max hit is greater.

Herblore habitat
Just hunt commons till 74, you should have a couple of ugene seeds by then. Then get the thermal vent and catch the others for secondaries.

Question Regarding the Chaotic Rapier
Get it now.

Bandos chestplate..
No one knows when it will stabalize. Its dropping because people are selling their items for cash to spend on the double exp weekend. That said, its probably going to rise closer to the weekend so Id say now is the time to buy.

Dungoneering Noob Questions
Join dungeonsweepers for people to dg with. Use lamps/peng points/unlock resource dungeons to speed the level up process, as the exp rates increase drastically as you get higher level. Always choose a rapier. There's a long thread proving that the CLS is worthless. Any place it beats the rapier (debateably at 4 places) the maul also beats the CLS, so get the rapier. Then for a second chaotic get a maul or ccbow. Yes you can. Its possible to do in 2 weeks.

Money Making without poking my eyes out
1. Get a credit card 2. Buy members 3. ???? 4. Profit! Seriously though F2P has no good money makers aside from merching. Telegrabbing wines of zamorak, yews, lobsters, and harvesting anti-dragon shields (or air talismans if you haven't done rune mysteries yet), runecrafting water runes, and mining iron ore are you're sad options.
-
Mah monies.
Get both. 20 mil a week is a low average if you're getting 8 herb runs in a day, all your dailies, and you have your mtk set up for max profit. Get the fury first and use korasi's sword instead of a d scim.
