I did some quick calcs sometime last week, and I will be max melees before I get 99 slayer. I'll be 99 combats by the time I hit 97 slayer anyways, and hopefully be at decent levels in the rest of my skills. Effigies from slayer tasks come at a very slow rate, so I think I'll be better off using the lamps on slayer. I have ~26 effigies banked atm, so I'd only need 24 more before I hit 97 slayer. Considering I averaged 1 effigy/100K slayer xp from 87-90 slayer, I think I will get those 24 effigies + a lot more hopefully! Little updata on what I'm doing: Got 99 craft yesterday and will get 93 summoning today to complete the Ardy Elite. After that, I'm just slaying at night and afking rocktails during the day.
