Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
True So went to KK today with Ambler and Octarine. I died more often than should be legal but they still split me in on the kill I was alive the most for which got us a drygore rapier(?) and 33 mil each so I can pay my friend back. Wewt. atleast they take you with ;[ It's because I'm good luck. 3 people had died so it ended up being 17.8 mil each but still not bad. 1 nex kill for the bow, 1 kk kill for the rapier, makes me 51 mil positive plus the 4 mil I've made at QBD with my mace. In otherwords I made the same amount in 1 day today as it took me half a week to do before my mace. Time to go get ready for date night. I may be on to do more KK with Ambler if he'll let me tomorrow.

Kalphite King and Nex
I got my mace tonight (woot). I have full void melee. I will be working on getting my cash pile up a little bit more so that I can get saradomin's whisper / glaiven boots. And I'm kinda stuck with a skill cape(t) for right now. I can't seem to figure out the eoc healers for Jad and my old fire cape was lost before I quit last time. PM me in game next time you guys go and I'll be there and ready to learn.

Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
It does :) now time to decide on what to do with it. I tested it out on QBD and sub 3 minute kills are a joke now. I went through her fourth phase in 2 thresholds... EDIT Ran some QBD runs, it's ridiculously fast in void. Got a stabalizer and 30 rune ore in the same chest so that was nice and now I'm back up 3.5 mil between the QBD kills and my herb farming.

Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
I'm officially sick of armadyl. Too much in too little amount of time. I did around 8 hours in the last two days and nothing else and the last 6 hours yielded nothing but a buckler. My friend is giving me a BCP and 1.5 mil cash so I'll be up to 105 mil, the rest I will make from farming/mtk while I work on Thieving/Runecrafting for PoP's. It was a good week making money though, probably the most I've made in that short of an amount of time (went from 10 mil cash and items to 93 mil total bank worth in 5 days). Any suggestions for the best xp/hr in runespan? Currently 77/90 runecrafting. Thieving I'm doing through PP. EDIT So my friend that's inactive right now because of college logged on to give me this... Which led to my cashing in my MTK and buying this... Got it at mid too meaning the crash is probably done and it's going to start rising again. EDIT 2 WOOOHOOO!!!

Kalphite King and Nex
Full Void is indeed the gold standard for dpsing atm (I am presuming that it will get nerfed however in the coming months). As Q said, don't bother with the skillcape (t), grab a Tokhaar-Kal if you have it, its much better than the skillcape now. If you have them, Penance and Vampyrism Aura are also very good for Nexing (Vampyrism scrimshaw - not so much). Yep - hop into PvmDG sometime and ask, we do Nex trips practically every night :D Yeaaahhh perhaps not if using Dragon :P Best boots are Torva, due to the DPS boost. Defence isn't too key atm - if you have a decent tank then it ought not to matter. Would your nex teams let me join them in this gear for ranging? Just getting very tired of solo armadyl (almost 1 k kills in a week).

Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
I don't feel safe... :? Shoulda crashed, 2 hours and no drops. That brings me up to 90 kills with just a buckler since my 4 hilt day. Might do some QBD just to break up the monotony today and make some actual progress towards my mace because arma is only ~450 k an hour without any of her rare drops (sans buckler and shards) factored in. Bleh. In other news I got my fourth scroll for death lotus chest. Wewt I guess? It'll be forever till I have the lacquer to make the thing.

Kalphite King and Nex
As I am nearing my goal of getting a drygore mace I'm wondering what other gear I should make available in order to get into nex and KK teams. I have full void melee which I assume is still the gold standard for dpsing. I also am going to have bandos boots until I can afford torva, saradomin's whisper, and a skill-cape (t) and the 6th age circuit for ring. Would teams let me in with this or is there anyone around these forums willing to take me for a few duo/trio nex trips?

Range & Mage Gear
Royals do work with chaotic and arguably for momentum slayering dual wield > 2h still I believe so dual chaotics ain't so bad. Plus since their retweak of dual vs 2h I hear good things about the balance so I'd assume royal and dual chaotic aren't too far apart for bossing now either. In terms of time invested/cost to use I still think royal wins, you can get one for what 600k now? 600 k is about right, no reason to spend 300 k tokens on dual ccbows unless you have the cstaff, cclaws (main hand only), arc stream, bonecrusher, demonhorn neckalce, scrolls of life/efficiency/cleansing.

Q
Unless the changed it accuracy is only determined by your main hand weapon meaning if you use a drygore mace and a bronze offhand dagger, your offhand dagger will be just as accurate as your mace hence using a 1h chaotic mainhand and the eee is better dps than the maul/any dual wield chaotic combo (dual claws might be an exception due to the extra 1.8% crit) barring certain multitarget situations.

Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
Sent out my 4th scroll mission for death lotus top *crosses fingers* was a 76% chance of success. I won't be able to scape any more tonight besides sending out voyages. Luckily according to the g.e. looks like the drygore mace is going through a mini crash of sorts so fingers crossed that the money that I didn't make today is made up for in a price drop.

Should have just given me your zaryte. Oh well.

Armadyl GWD and QBD - High and Low level
Sub boots are good. If the CD on berserker allows for using it twice in a kill do it. If not save it for phase 4 so you have to deal with as little time in that phase as possible. Also test a run or two in void. I would personally run through the firewalls if you can afford it food-wise. And I started Arms 2 weeks ago in royal d hide after never having done eoc before so i understand. 2 weeks later of maybe an hour a day and I'm up over 80 mil. Very close to my goal of drygore mace

Armadyl GWD and QBD - High and Low level
You shouldn't be using any sort of food at armadyl, especially not in t7 gear and higher. Using a dragontooth necklace and soul split I never run out of health or prayer. You should be using abilities non-stop and prioritize ricochet and bombardment so that you can get extra health from the minions. [hide] I stand in the northwest corner (near the altar) so that Kree has to walk to get to me and I open with fragmentation shot [r] so that you get the x3 bonus damage from him walking towards you (this works ~90% of the time) and I use a dreadnip. Then I go through e,w,q,1,q,w,e,4,r,2 (as you see your 8th shot fire then hit whatever your highest cooldown basic is, most often binding shot [1]). From there I prioritize thresholds (rapid > bombardment > snapshot) > basics (highest cooldown > lowest cooldowns). I pray Anguish and Soul Split the entire time and my set up looks like this. The necklace is twisted bird or whatever the tier 1 prayer necklace from dg is. You can go up to tier 2 for an extra 100 prayer points per kill but I never run our with the 4-500 that I get from killing kree and 4 minions (the mage one will die half way through the kill due to ricochet and bombardment and respawn). With renewals and regenerate I never run out of prayer or health. The prayer potion is there for if I derp and leave prayer on in between kills by accident. If you're using a titan or familiar you can put the scroll use button where my prayer potion button is on the action bar.[/hide] That's what I use at armadyl . Also remember to use regenerate after any kill where you need some health. And the minions drop plenty of manta rays/potatoes so feel free to use those. EDIT Why are you using dragon boots? Switch to bandos boots, get a 6th age circuit or a warrior ring, and a saradomin whisper. I'm fairly confident sub 2 min kills is with void, steel titan (also dreadnips if you have them), and drygores but I was averaging 4 minute kills with crapier/eee. Are you using overloads? When souls spawn you want to click to run through them as they speak their dialogue. For the 4 souls you should have berserker popped, sipped an adrenaline potion and hit 2 abilities to be able to use your 2 flurry attacks and that should end the fight so you should rarely run into a 4 soul spawn at all.

So many feels... Thanks again for inspiring me to go to armadyl. I'm got 4 hilts today alone from soloing.

Hello, I'm the Doctor! Back and ready to be a noob again!
Creepy.... where did you go to school? P.S. I just got my 4th hilt drop today in another 2 hour armadyl trip... forgot to screenie so here's the grand exchange of it selling for 5.61 mil Total trip brought in 6.7 mil bringing me to 86 out of 115 for my goal. Tomorrow I should be able to put in 4 hours of arma so if I get insanely lucky I could have my drygore mace by tomorrow evening. My girlfriend is coming over at 5:30 though so it's gotta be done before then.

Sara GWD inquiry
Done and done. I'd sell all your magic gear, buy Armadyl or other range gear, and camp Armadyl. From what I've done, Armadyl is incredibly easy compared to Saradomin. You don't get hit nearly as much and the frequent manta and potato drops, added with healing abilities at the end of each kill, should keep you alive for quite a while. If you're not willing to change bosses, I suppose the only thing to do is try improving your use of abilities if possible, making sure you use/time rejuvenate and regenerate properly, and using magic abilities in the best order. However, like Bruno said, I'm not sure Saradomin is your best choice given the no Soul Split and herblore. What are all of your combat stats? It's easier to give advice on these things if we know all information. Personally I agree with Stev, armadyl is incredibly easy with soul split and tier 7 gear. Get a royal c-bow though, they're like 400 k and tied for the best range weapon in game. The set up that I use for it is this... [hide] I stand in the northwest corner (near the altar) so that Kree has to walk to get to me and I open with fragmentation shot [r] so that you get the x3 bonus damage from him walking towards you (this works ~90% of the time) and I use a dreadnip. Then I go through e,w,q,1,q,w,e,4,r,2 (as you see your 8th shot fire then hit whatever your highest cooldown basic is, most often binding shot [1]). From there I prioritize thresholds (rapid > bombardment > snapshot) > basics (highest cooldown > lowest cooldowns). I pray Anguish and Soul Split the entire time and my set up looks like this.
