Hunter skill importance?
Its worth getting up for Quests Grenwalls Herblore Habitat Notable quests you'll need it up for are defender of varrock for access to AZ's and While Guthix Sleeps (more accurately its needed for the prereq quests to do WGS). Grenwalls are over a mil an hour cash (with perfect set up and skills you can reach over 1.5 m/hr). Herblore habitat provides invaluable juju potions, namely scentless potions for grenwalls, zamorak potions for increased hunter exp/hr, mining for the best way of mining in game atm, and perhaps most importantly farming. For the farming potions each seed gained from hunting them adds effectively 3.5 mil more worth of herbs over the course of your runs with all potions made from that one herb.

Dungeonsweepers (DGS) - Huge changes; read first post.
Assuming the drain stays put after you switch it would be 10% of 100, then 10% of 90, then 10 % of 81 etc etc. So you couldn't take him down to 50% defense with 5 players, it would be ~59%. Again, assuming that the initial drain stays put once you switch to turmoil.

CLS
Methinks the problem is the number of people and not your weapon. With 4 people his health is split 4 ways, effectively giving your main advantage (rapier and whips speed) away. Graar has 2550 health if I remember correctly so ~638 damage is needed for you all to tie in damage. Because the cls is more accurate than a rapier (and more accurate than the whip by far) at bandos if he hits two lucky 400's he's got the kill essentially. If it was just you and him he could hit the two 400's and still not get the kill because your extra attack turns paid off more than your lack of accuracy hurt you. Hope I communicated that clearly...

Wondering about what to use 7k Red Chins on?
Nechs are better if you need the charms and want to profit/break even.

Sponteanious Fight Caves
2 super/extreme sets or 3 overloads. 4 saradomin brews, an ee/eee. 2 super restores, the rest prayer potions. If you decide you arent comfortable kiting the 360's sub out some of the prayer potions for range gear/ammo. Good luck.

85 fishing
Barb fishing with low alch or C2 dg fishing are your two best bets. I recommend the latter due to it knocking off your low floors that need to be knocked off anyway.

Uses for claws?
Use them on everything you wouldn't be using a healing spec for with the exception of mithril dragons if you own korasi's sword.

dragon killing
at max stats whip is better for reds.

LRC help wanted!!
Translation : I wasted my money on an sgs when claws would have been a better investment and so instead of admitting it and selling it for claws I'm now going to make up a story about how it is just as good as a whip despite all testing and math done in the past the proves otherwise. LRC arent weak to crush, they're weak to anything. Survey says! *Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz* Awww sorry old chap, but you were incorrect! Denise! Show him the right answer!! "Absolutely Bob! The best weapon outside of Dungeoneering to use on LRC happens to be.......Yes! You guessed it! Saradomin Sword!" Looks like you were wrong buddy, they are *indeed* weak against crush attacks! hours of whip+ddef vs sara sword says hai. Lrn2 to test and research what you post before posting. kthxbai. They have obsenely low defense to anything style meaning str bonus is more important to consider. Same reason a whip+ddef is better than korasi's+ddef at green dragons despite their stab weakness.
-
dragon killing
Depends on the dragon. For green dragons (in general) they have such low defense that the stab/slash weakness isn't as important as a weapon with more strength. So a whip will be better than korasi's. For higher level dragons, such as steels and miths, the stab weakness is much more worth exploiting.
-
ROW and New noted drops
First off, you were wrong because Zerker Ring = +6 Hit, not +18. Secondly, most people can afford Zerker, but ROW is better if they are looking to spend 2 minutes more finishing their task in hopes of making a quick 20M. No one said 18, I said 14. Argue with the calculator that supplied that number, not me.

no thank you

OP did not ask for fun, they asked for the best. Also if you can afford a bgs you can afford cheaper better weapons.

Low lvl money farming help
lulwut? i'm pretty sure it's faster just clicking the bank (which is like 10 feet away) Lrn2read thread He asked about construction being useful from a previous post concerning banking for green dragons. Two seperate answers to two seperate questions. Hence why they are separated. You're advising him to kill mens but then answer a question about killing dragons? :/ Even at level 65, killing green dragons > killing men in edgeville. Wow... He asked for a money making method that works at his combat level. He also asked why construction was noted as being worth leveling up for killing green dragons. I answered both questions. I never said edgeville men were better than greens. Please don't put words in my mouth.

ROW and New noted drops
Because Jagex is so notorious for being right about their own game... *looks at dg shields KB descriptions, and KB stated %chance of saving an ingredient with a scroll of cleansing* These are two of many examples of Jagex's failure to be correct. Max hit is increased by 14 from a berserker ring so your 6 is a little off, as well as your assumption that its benefit is only seen on max hit rather than your average hit. On top of the fact that you can effectively use both with little effort. If you want to nerf your own damage output in exchance for a hypothetical chance at a nice drop than fine, but don't tell people to subject themselves to the same nerf when they could have the best of both worlds. That's a description. Not a new, serious, important game mechanic. I never said it was better to use a ROW. In fact I did say it was better in the long run to use a Zerker. I just offered the option and my opinion. Crime? Really...what exactly are they describing? Oh that's right...game mechanics. I never said it was a crime. I said it was a bad option.

Rephrase. Best to buy the ingrediants for the best combination of cheapest gp/exp and speed and then buy your supers to make extremes after.

Killing lvl 3 men in edgeville is ~300 k an hour. Construction gives you an amulet of glory in your house with infinite tele's. Used for edgeville banking.
-
ROW and New noted drops
Right, reducing your killing speed by a significant amount is worth the extremely slim chance at getting a drop that the row hasn't demonstrably been shown to increase the chances of getting... Good luck with that.
-
ROW and New noted drops
The noted drops are not row specific. A better option is to ring switch right before you get the kill so the row effect kicks in but you don't lose having the str bonus for faster kills. Row by itself is still not worth it.

Better to make the cheapest gp/exp potion and then buy your super attacks/strengths for making extremes.
