i see everyone's point, but i get metal dragon tasks 1 out of 3 times it seems like and i always mage them. my combat stats are 95 hp, 93 str, 92 att, 92 def... ect. yeah i can easily melee them but i just mage them which is 89, 15k from 90. rapier faster kill count compared to cls and aby whip... tbh when i use cls and whip depending on target got stream necklace just for mage tasks and dont regret it at all i just feel like i got magic covered atm, and attack/str besides crush covered for all slayer tasks... i care about money but not as much as some people, nor xp waste, i was just to be as efficient as i can while getting 99 slayer. yes rapier has been on my mind but why rapier if whip does the same purpose... maybe i am screwed up in the head but i truly dont see why rapier. i know the advantages, but 1m repair cost to use over whip.... btw 89 slayer, 60k from 90 slayer.
